Chapter 203: Inference

As soon as the shopkeeper Lu took over the agarwood block, Lin Bining smelled the warm alcohol with a clear fragrance next to him, and touched it in his hand to take a closer look, the oil line on the agarwood is naturally distributed, the amount of oil is not much, it is not a first-level inverted shelf, put it on the nose and smell lightly, the sweet and bitter taste is mixed, it should be a second-level inverted shelf, and the normal price on the market is about seventeen taels and one tael.

Lin Bining always had a strange feeling when he smelled this agarwood, and always felt that there was a hint of seafood in the fragrance, and he didn't know if it was because Yunlong City was on the seaside, so he felt this way.

Bai Yi heard the greetings between Shopkeeper Lu and Steward Zeng, his heart moved, and he couldn't help but think of the conversation he heard behind the reef that night, and interrupted loudly: "The Wei Dong family you are talking about, but Wei Hanyan Wei girl?" ”

"Exactly, Childe knows my owner?" Steward Zeng said curiously, looking Bai Yi up and down with his eyes.

This son is handsome and extraordinary, isn't he the blue-faced confidant of his own owner?

Shopkeeper Lu also looked at him curiously.

"Miss Wei has a great reputation in Yunlong City, I have heard people mention it, but I have never known it." Bai Yi glanced at Lin Bining, his eyes were slightly meaningful, and he shook his fan and smiled.

Wei Hanyan is indeed very famous in Yunlong City, Zeng Steward and Shopkeeper Lu both believed his explanation, Shopkeeper Lu smiled and said: "Speaking of Wei Dong's family, it is really a woman who does not let her eyebrows, I still remember ......"

No wonder she felt that this agarwood was impure, Wei Hanyan must have put the agarwood and salt in the same warehouse. She guessed that the other party must have used the stolen money from the sale of illicit salt to resell incense materials to launder the silver. I don't know if I can't come into contact with items with a strong smell when I store it upside down, otherwise the smell will be absorbed, and the fragrance of agarwood will not be mellow.

After talking about Wei Hanyan's heroic deeds, Shopkeeper Lu asked with a smile: "Steward Zeng, I don't know what the price of this batch of goods is?" ”

"The shopkeeper Lu is also a regular customer, when you know that my owner is the most refreshing to do business, other houses sell seventeen or eight taels and one tael, and the shopkeeper is here, just one or two if you count fifteen taels." Steward Zeng said with a smile.

Shopkeeper Lu laughed when he heard this, and the corners of his eyes piled up five folds, but before he could speak, Lin Bining said unceremoniously: "Your inverted frame is second-level, isn't there any first-level?" The agarwood that we want to use in our incense shop naturally has to buy good quality. ”

The smile on Steward Zeng's face stiffened after hearing this, and anyone who heard that what he sold was disliked would probably not have a good face.

He lowered his voice and said: "The little boy is young and doesn't know the market, and it is difficult to find an inverted frame of this quality on the market now. It's not that I've boasted about someone, even if Childe searches the entire assembly, he can't find a second agarwood with such a condition, and even if he can barely find one of similar quality, it won't have as much inventory as mine. ”

"Thank you for your kind words and reminders, if you can't find it, you have to find it to know." Lin Bining raised a bright smile, and then took the lead to leave the stall.

The young owner is usually gentle and polite, and the shopkeeper Lu doesn't know what's wrong with the other party, and suddenly he speaks so politely. He smiled and played with Steward Zeng: "The little boy has a child's temper, and he speaks without intention, so please don't mind Steward Zeng." ”

Shopkeeper Lu is not like Lin Bining who left Yunlong City in a few days, he is in the same city as Steward Zeng, he looks down and doesn't look up, and he still has to be affectionate when he speaks.

"Forget it, what do I have to do with the hairy boy." Steward Zeng tugged at the corners of his mouth.

Shopkeeper Lu smiled at him embarrassedly again, and then quickly chased after his young owner.

Bai Yi leaned over to Lin Bining's side and said with a smile in a voice that only two people could hear: "Ning'er didn't buy it from Wei Hanyan, but she was jealous?" ”

She resisted the urge to roll her eyes, and smiled with a snow-white tooth: "You think too much." Then he slowed down and waited for Shopkeeper Lu to catch up.

Shopkeeper Lu trotted all the way over, took a few breaths of breath in his heart, and said cautiously: "Little boy, the agarwood of this Wei family is also in good condition, the price is two or three taels cheaper than others, our incense shop is going to buy five hundred catties of agarwood this time, and we can save at least sixteen thousand taels of silver." ”

The more he talked, the more sad he became, he really didn't know that firewood and rice were expensive, and it was easy for him to save some money for the Lin family.

"Shopkeeper Lu, I understand this account, but you don't understand it." Lin Bining shook her head amusedly, "I don't want the Wei family's incense, it's because the agarwood of that family is dyed with miscellaneous smells, and the fragrance is not mellow. Coveting a temporary cheapness has ruined the quality of the Lin family's incense products and the reputation of the incense shop. ”

In the end, her voice carried the majesty of the superior, and her eyes just looked at the shopkeeper Lu calmly, but it made him have the urge to wipe his sweat, he swallowed his saliva and said: "Lu Mou dare not forget the rules of the incense shop." ”

Lin Bining nodded and asked, "Seeing that you and Steward Zeng are familiar with each other, the incense shop has bought incense materials many times in the Wei family?" ”

Shopkeeper Lu smiled and said, "I'm not very familiar with it, I've only dealt with it once, once or twice." ”

She said casually: "It's okay before, you don't have to buy the Wei family's incense materials in the future." ”

"Little boy, why is that?" The purchase price of incense materials is cheaper, and the incense shop earns more, Shopkeeper Lu really doesn't understand why his young owner is so willful, and can't help asking.

Lin Bining looked left and right, there were few bystanders where they were standing, and said in a low voice: "Has the incense sold by the Wei family always cheaper than the market price?" ”

Shopkeeper Lu nodded: "Generally, it will be about three taels cheaper." ”

"Then Shopkeeper Lu never thought about why the price of the Wei family is cheaper than others?" She didn't wait for him to answer, and continued to say to herself, "Doing business is nothing more than to make money, and the Wei family is not a good hall, why don't you make money with white flowers, it's just that you want to get rid of the incense as soon as possible." If I guessed correctly, this incense material either came from the wrong way, or the silver that entered the incense material came from the wrong way, I said so, can the shopkeeper Lu understand? ”

Shopkeeper Lu set off a wave of turmoil in his heart, and suddenly remembered that he had heard that Wei Hanyan's hands were not clean, but he was deceived by Xiaoli before, and he didn't think much about it.

The Lin family is doing serious business, and it really shouldn't have anything to do with the Wei family anymore.

He wiped the sweat from his head and was busy: "I know that I won't go to Wei's house to buy incense materials in the future." ”

Bai Yi raised his eyebrows and smiled, and said, "What Ning Er said is right, this Wei family is not simple. ”

She raised her eyebrows and didn't answer, she always felt that Bai Yi seemed to know something, but unfortunately it was not a place for people to ask here, and she would ask when she went back.

The squire listened to it with relish, looked at the eldest lady with adoring eyes, clapped his hands and praised: "Childe is really amazing!" ”

The more they got along, the more Peng Yue found that this little master Yu Xiang had real skills, and his heart became more respectful.
