The West Market is full of people, and Abdul's spice shop is even more crowded.

At this time, Abdul was even smiling when he slept.

During this time, although no new spices had arrived in Chang'an, Abdul did not make less money at all.

The spices that were hoarded in the warehouse before were now sold at a high price by others, and he didn't even let them go.

Just to maintain the presence of the spice shop, some retail stores will be released every day, but it is also restrictive and can only buy one or two per person.

Even so, the shop is full of people.

Abdul walked back to his yard from the outside.

During this time, he basically spent time in Tianxiang Pavilion or Yihong Mansion.

Those top girls naturally won't come forward to receive him, even if the money he gives is useless.

However, some of the outdated girls, for the sake of Abdul's boldness, there are also people who are willing to keep guests.

It's like being pressed by a ghost.

"Master, Du Changshi from the Wei Wangfu came over again today and offered to buy another load of pepper, but I couldn't stand it and sold a load."

"If you sell it, you sell it, and you don't have to put this money into the warehouse, so you can use this money to collect some pepper from other people at a high price."

Abdul is not angry, such a one-out-in, it seems that he has suffered a loss, and if he sells a load of pepper, he may only be able to buy back eighty percent.

However, if you take into account that these spices in the warehouse have risen with the tide, then they are earned.

He also learned this trick recently.

Even, he has privately collected a lot of spices from other people, so since the New Year, the number of spices in the warehouse has not decreased, but has increased.

The money of the Tang people is too easy to earn.

Abdul was ready to wait for the price of spices to rise again, so he would leave all the goods, and then go back to Guangzhou himself, arrange for the fleet to go to the South Seas, and bring back some more spices.

……

In the imperial study room of Daming Palace, Li Shimin was listening to Li Zhong's report on the latest situation in Chang'an City.

"According to you, most of the nobles in Chang'an City are involved in this hoarding of spices?"

Li Shimin felt that the situation in front of him seemed a bit abnormal.

Although spices are very valuable, at the beginning of the year, the price of spices doubled compared to last year.

But in just over a month, prices have soared to five times that of last year, which doesn't look like a normal phenomenon.

Otherwise, Li Zhong would not have explained the price of spices outside to Li Shimin every day for several days in a row.

"More or less involved, some people participated early, sold the hoarded spices, and made a fortune; Later, I found that the spices were still rising, and I couldn't help but buy them again, and the price of the spices became higher and higher. ”

Li Zhong didn't dare to say that the Wei Wangfu was the nobleman who hoarded the most spices, otherwise it was estimated that Li Shimin's reaction would be even stronger.

"Are ordinary people involved?"

No matter how much the nobles hoarded spices, the ultimate impact was limited.

However, once the people of Chang'an City are also involved, if something happens, there may be chaos.

Li Shimin sees this very clearly.

"That's basically not the case. Originally, spices were not something that people could consume, and now the price of a pound of pepper is as high as forty or fifty yuan, and ordinary people can't afford even one or two, only to watch the excitement. ”

Li Zhong suddenly found that he could only buy a few catties of pepper for a year, and his mood was immediately not good.

"It's good that the people didn't participate, but you have to be optimistic about that Hu Shang, the source of this matter is him, don't let him slip away."

……

In Diandu Dezhong, Chao Fang and Wu Qi rarely got together again to taste the food.

"Doctor Chaozheng, this pork belly pot chicken was only sold for 300 yuan at the beginning, but now it is really outrageous to ask for a silver coin."

The weather hasn't fully warmed up yet, so it's time to drink a bowl of warm pork belly chicken soup.

"I heard that the price of pepper in the West Market has risen five or six times, and this pork belly pot chicken uses a lot of pepper, and the price increase is inevitable."

The DPRK side is a little more open than Wu Qi.

Of course, this also has something to do with the rich background of the Chao family.

Don't look at Wu Qi among the eunuchs in the Daming Palace, he can also be regarded as the number one person.

However, the status of eunuchs in the early Tang Dynasty was far less high than that of other dynasties, and Li Shimin's punishment of corrupt officials was relatively strict, so Wu Qi really didn't have much gray income at ordinary times.

It would cost him a few silver coins to eat a meal, which was still too extravagant for him.

"I heard that many nobles in Chang'an City are hoarding and speculating on the price of spices, otherwise it would not have risen so much in a short period of time."

Wu Qi felt that he was lying down and was shot, obviously the matter of spices had nothing to do with him, but he had to pay for the price of rising spices.

"The nobles of Chang'an City have made a lot of money in recent years. With a lot of money, I don't know what to do, so I can do anything. ”

Chao Fang is one of the few people who watch this farce coldly, as a medical family, the Chao family is relatively restrained in the pursuit of money.

"That's right, I heard that the latest luxury carriage launched by Mercedes-Benz Carriage Dealership sells for thousands of dollars, and it sells very well."

Wu Qi personally saw the luxurious carriage sent by the Chu Palace's palace to the nobles in the palace, and only later did he know that such a carriage was sold so expensive, and he secretly smacked his tongue in his heart.

"It's up to you to understand it. The new carriage, which uses a unique shock-absorbing system and is also equipped with luxurious sharkskin sofas and steel-cast wheels, is naturally expensive. ”

While tasting the food, the two of them chatted about what was happening in Chang'an City.

Every time the spring flowers bloom, the banks of the Weishui River are full of tourists.

Many young men and women are also taking this opportunity to let themselves go.

Xue Li and Li Xueyan also rarely walked together on the edge of the Wei River.

Since Tuyuhun came back, Xue Li has been rewarded by a county man, although it is only the most entry-level title, but it is not so different from the county lord.

Under the influence of Li Kuan, Li Xueyan and Xue Li can be regarded as right, and they have already set a wedding date a year ago.

originally thought that there would be resistance from Li Xiaogong's side, but he didn't expect him to agree very happily, but there were a lot of twists and turns.

"Rengui, didn't the second brother already say that you should go to the military department, why don't you agree?"

"The prince treats me like a mountain, and I think it's good to be like this now."

Xue Li's brave performance on the battlefield was praised even by Li Jing.

Li Shimin naturally learned about it in the newspaper.

"Forget it, it's okay to stay with the second brother, you can stay in Chang'an City all the time."

Li Xueyan didn't get too entangled, she just chatted casually just now.

"Huh? Which fleet is so large? ”

At this moment, in the distance of Weishui, a large group of ships was slowly heading towards the pier.

The Weishui Wharf is not small, after all, most of the materials that go to Chang'an by water have to be unloaded here. However, when Wei Chihuan entered the dock with the fleet, he couldn't dock at one time.

Whether it is the largest "East China Sea Fishery" or the other two-bow ships, they are all giants in this era.

To transfer the goods they carried to ordinary river vessels, the "East China Sea Fishery" alone would have to be loaded by more than a dozen large river vessels.

In this way, when they returned to Hangzhou, they were three-bow ships, and when they returned to Chang'an from Hangzhou, they became a large fleet.

Such a fleet, even if it is Weishui Wharf, cannot be touched a few times a year.

Yang Qiwa looked around excitedly on the bow of the boat, this was his first time in Chang'an.

Although he has not yet entered the city, the prosperous scene on both sides of the Weishui River has exceeded his imagination.

Without waiting for the ship to stop, he took a big stride and went ashore.

Of course, there is no difference between the morning and the evening.

They can't go until the goods are unloaded.

Fortunately, the East China Sea fishery often has ships coming from Dengzhou to Chang'an, so there are special warehouses and manpower at Weishui Wharf.

Soon, the slender men and coolies at the Weishui wharf began to help the fleet.

When Wei Chihuan first went to the South Seas, he would have thought that he would need to prepare a lot of boxes to load spices, such as nutmeg and the like, even if they were transferred to a small boat, they were only loaded in baskets.

As a result, the news that the East China Sea fishery had returned from the South Seas and brought back a large amount of spices immediately spread.

Du Chuke happened to have a few friends on an outing today, and such a lively scene on the Weishui Wharf naturally attracted his attention.

Soon, his face changed.

Then, regardless of the reaction of the friends next to him, Du Chuke, who was already old, rushed to his carriage like a hormone and went straight to the Wei Palace.

The four-wheeled carriage is the latest product of the Mercedes-Benz Carriage Company, the shark skin sofa is very soft and comfortable to sit on, and it is said that there are special springs installed underneath, which are filled with fine wool and other things.

However, Du Chuke was not in the mood to feel it.

The news that the East China Sea fishery has arranged for ships to go to the South Seas is no secret.

However, there has been no movement for a year, and to be honest, many nobles in Chang'an City thought that this fleet would not come back.

However, I didn't expect them to appear at Weishui Wharf so suddenly.

The basket of spices, although I can't see it really, but the fleet has just returned from overseas, and I don't know the situation in Chang'an City at all, so there is no need to cheat.

It's over, I'm going to be done!

Du Chuke looked discouraged.

Now, he can only hope that his actions are fast enough, and he will quickly return to the Wei Wangfu and transfer all the pepper in the treasury to others.

With enough time, these peppers can be sold quickly.

Time is money, and I have never needed it so urgently as I do today!

……

Housing.

Today is the day of rest, Fang Xuanling did not go to court, and stayed at home.

However, he only dared to hide in the study and did not dare to face his wife.

Since the end of the Chinese New Year, there has been no news of Fang's love, and Mrs. Fang's temper has become worse and worse.

rushed down at every turn to get angry, and sometimes directly aimed at Fang Xuanling.

"A-Niang, I heard from my colleagues yesterday that the price of cinnamon and pepper in Naxi City has risen again, don't we really hoard a little bit in our house? Even if he hoarded a few hundred catties at the beginning, he has now earned tens of thousands of dollars. ”

The matter of buying and selling spices in Chang'an City is so hot, it is naturally impossible for Fang Zhizhi not to be affected.

Especially seeing that the colleagues around me are saying every day how much the price of their own cinnamon has risen, and how much the price of the pepper they buy has risen, it is difficult for Fang Yuzhi to pretend that he doesn't know anything.

This is similar to the stock market in later generations, whether it was 07 or early 15, even the aunts who picked up garbage began to speculate in stocks.

Colleagues and friends around me are talking about which stock has risen and closed every day, what gossip has happened recently, and what stock is about to break out.

If you can survive and not enter the market, it will be really difficult.

Li Kuan suffered a big loss in his previous life.

In '07, I was in college, had no money, and escaped a catastrophe.

When I was 15 years old, when the stock market was getting hotter and hotter, I couldn't help but rush in.

Outcome......

Oh~~

Within two months, it ushered in a big fall, and the loss was as high as more than 30%!

"Spices and spices, you know spices, for my mother, I hate people mentioning the word spices to me the most."

Mrs. Fang said with an unhappy face.

Speaking of which, it's not that she is really so determined, or that she has such a long-term vision.

On the contrary, she did not agree to hoard spices, which was purely gambling.

Why do the East China Sea fisheries go to the South China Sea?

I heard that it was to find some spice islands.

In other words, the root cause of his own Erlang not returning for a year lies in this spice.

Will she be able to agree to the family hoarding spices?

Even the pork belly pot chicken that is popular outside has not been done once in the house.

"A-Niang, no matter how dissatisfied you are, there's no need to get along with money."

As the son of the head of the house, Fang Yizhi naturally has to consider how to increase the family's income.

Otherwise, a large family would rely on Fang Xuanling and his own little money, how could it be enough?

It is also a pity that the second brother followed His Royal Highness the King of Chu to the East China Sea fishing a few years ago, and the family has only become more prosperous in the past few years.

"No, I get angry when I hear the word spice, if you want to be angry with your mother, then you can go buy spices."

Mrs. Fang is now thinking about when her own Erlang will come back, and the others are all floating clouds.

If Fang Yiai could appear in front of her now, she would rather be when the money that Fang Yiai brought back in the past few years did not exist.

No matter how much money you have, where is it important to have your own son.

……

The West Market occupies the area of two squares in Chang'an City, which is not small.

As a newly rising Abu spice shop, in the West Market, everyone now knows about it.

To put it mildly, Abu Spice Shop should now be the shop with the largest capital flow in the entire West Market.

Not to mention copper and silver coins, even the glittering gold coins can be seen here at any time.

After all, one gold coin is equal to ten silver coins, that is, ten coins.

At this time, in the West Market, you can't even buy half a pound of pepper.

After selling a little spice at the market price, and then sending someone to secretly buy the spice back at a higher price, after repeated operations, in the last few days alone, the price of spices has risen by an average of several dollars a catty.

Wealth touches people's hearts.

Such a lucrative spice naturally attracts countless people to follow suit.

Even some nearby shopkeepers didn't resist following the trend and bought some.

In their opinion, the spice will continue to rise.

No one ever thought that who else could afford to eat such a precious spice?
