“w . a . n . gfei, this is the news that I asked people to find out . This time when the price of food increased, in just 7 days, the Zhang Family earned more than 1 million” More than 1 million was not a normal income, the normal income was after the profit before the price hike was removed .
“Fortunately, w . a . n . gye came out in 7 days, otherwise, the price of food will change every day . The Zhang Family will eat people alive . ” Lin Chujiu looked at the data that Su Cha gathered and couldn't help but shake her head .
Their movement was faster than printing money . Apart from the Zhang Family, other merchants were not that bad . If their earnings added up, they only earn up to 200,000 liang . Even Su Cha only earned more than 300,000 .

However, Su Cha earned much more because he has more supplies . The price of their grains was lower compared to the other shops . So a lot more people prepare to buy in their shop . And so their profit was not small .
“These businessmen have become accustomed to making a fortune . After every war, people must live a tight life for a few years . Even the imperial court budget must be tight . If a serious case arises, they will be forced to borrow money to the Central Empire . In fact, the four countries are afraid of fighting . They don't want to fight . But every few years, they fight several battles . The East Country manages to stop going into war for 3 years, so the state treasury saved a sum of money . But because of this war, I'm afraid they spent 10x more than that . ” Aside from the profit in 7 days, Su Cha also investigated the huge profit made by grain merchants in the past few years .
“w . a . n . gfei, you see, when the East and North Country fought 3 years ago, the Zhang Family nearly earned 10 million liang . Aside from the grains, they also sold salt and iron . ” Su Cha was fully prepared this time, whether it was useful or not . He checked things out first before he talks .

This time, their situation was so dangerous that he didn't dare to take things lightly .
Su Cha took out another piece of paper and handed it to Lin Chujiu: “This one is the report that the Zhang Family earned from the battle between East and West Country 4 years ago . ”
Su Cha was a businessman, who also sell grains, so he was very sensitive to the price increase of grains . He usually collects this kind of news . When the price of grains or salt rise, Su Cha habitually record them .

“Your collection is complete . ” Lin Chujiu looked at the data one by one and then looked at Su Cha with great admiration .
It's not only the East but also the price hike in the North, South and West Country . Su Cha recorded them one by one . However, Su Cha cannot find out the total sales of the 3 countries . However, according to the demand of each country, and the total price increased in food, it can be seen how unscrupulous the Zhang family was, during those wars .
Lin Chujiu didn't use the abacus, she calculated things with the use of charcoal . After calculating, Lin Chujiu was dumbfounded: “In the 3 countries, those grain merchants earned over 200 million liang?” They were simply grabbing the ordinary people's money .
“Terrible, isn't it? Without careful a . n . a . lysis, we only think that they earn 1 to 2 million at most . Especially because the price increase was only a few pennies, when in fact, they were sucking people's blood . ” The emperor must have learned this, so he made a move and used Xiao w . a . n . gfu as a gun .
He wants Xiao w . a . n . gfu to fight against those Central Empire merchants . In the end, no matter who wins or loses, the emperor is the winner .
