The jasper is made into a tree high, and ten thousand green silk ribbons hang down.

I don't know who cut out the thin leaves, and the spring breeze in February is like scissors.

The willow branches on the bank of the Weishui River were already covered with young leaves, and Wei Chihuan and Fang Yiai had been on the edge of the wharf, seeing that everything had been moved into the warehouse, and then leaving a group of people to guard it, before they began to go to the courtyard of the Chu Wangfu.

However, with such a big movement, the Chu Wangfu naturally got the news a long time ago.

Li Kuan put down Li Xinning and personally rode his horse towards Weishui Wharf.

Therefore, as soon as Wei Chihuan and Fang Yiai set off, they found a team of cavalry galloping in the distance.

"It's the prince, the prince has come to greet us in person."

Fang Yiai's eyes were very sharp, and he could see from a distance that this team of people and horses was the guards of the Chu Palace.

Dare to run on the official road with such a large team of guards, it can only be Li Kuan himself.

"Boom!"

Just when he was about to be in front of Yu Chihuan and Fang Yiai, Li Kuan stopped suddenly, and the whole person rotated ninety degrees with the horse.

This difficult action has no problem at all for Li Kuan, who has the blessing of master-level riding skills.

"Brother Wei Chi, bereavement, you are finally back, great, just come back."

After Li Kuan got off the horse, he didn't dislike the smell of these two guys, and came to a warm hug.

In recent months, although Li Kuan has not said anything, he is actually a little worried in his heart.

The clipper is certainly a very suitable ship for sailing, but the unforgiving wind and waves at sea, coupled with the very complicated sea conditions in the South Sea, it is not impossible if something really happens.

Well, now, the people have finally returned.

But Wei Chihuan was even more excited than Li Kuan.

"Lord, I found it, we found it!"

"What was found?"

As soon as Li Kuan heard that the fleet was back, he immediately galloped on his horse and came over, not knowing too much other news.

Now that I suddenly heard Wei Chihuan say that I had found it, I really didn't react to what I found.

"Spice Island, we found Spice Island. The whole island is full of pepper trees, nutmeg trees and cinnamon, and you can have as many as you want. If it weren't for the limited number of ships, we would have been able to bring back more spices this time. ”

"That's right, not only did we find spices, but we also brought a lot of bird's nests back, didn't you talk about it several times before, that bird's nest is really good, it simply saved the lives of our fleet."

Yu Chihuan and Fang Yiai excitedly shared with Li Kuan the major gains of going to sea.

No matter how many achievements you have, you need to share them with others to feel happy.

"Good! That's great! It seems that you are worth the trip, go, go to this king's mansion first, and I will pick you up. Jun Mai, you send someone to report to the two Lang Jun's mansions, and say that the person has returned safely and will go home later. ”

As Li Kuan's best friends in Chang'an City, he hasn't seen him for a year, and at this moment, Li Kuan also wants to have a drink with them.

"Lord Wang, did you arrange for someone to transport these spices back first? With so many things in the warehouse, my subordinates are worried about their safety. ”

Zhu Erfu saw that several bigwigs were about to leave, so he hurriedly stepped forward to remind them.

Although he didn't know that spices in Chang'an City had now been made sky-high, even if it was usual, so many spices were priceless.

"Xuan Ce, I'll leave it to you here, you look at the arrangement."

……

In the Wei Palace, Li Tai was giving a banquet to Chai Lingwu and others.

These second generations have all been drawn into his camp by Li Taixin recently.

As the son of Chai Shao and Princess Pingyang, Chai Lingwu is also a top-level existence in Xungui.

And as the head of the next generation of the Chai family, he won over Chai Lingwu, even if he pulled the Chai family onto his own boat.

So Li Tai's mood is still very good.

"Brother Chai, come, everything is in plain sight."

Li Tai raised his fat hand and touched a glass with Chai Lingwu.

"Lord Wang, it's not good, something big has happened."

At this moment, Du Chuke ran in sweating profusely, and he didn't care about any etiquette.

"Huh?"

Li Tai's face was a little unhappy, but when he saw that it was his most trusted palace governor, he didn't lose his temper.

"What's wrong?"

"The East China Sea Fishery ...... The fleet that went to the South Seas returned to ...... It's back! ”

Du Chuke said breathlessly.

"Fang Yiai is back?"

"Yes, I came back with a large number of ships and goods, and the people were just at the Weishui wharf."

"It's back, it's back, what's all the fuss?"

Li Tai felt that Du Chuke was making a bit of a fuss today.

Although at the beginning of last year, he also took action to win over Fang Yiai, but it was unsuccessful; However, I didn't say anything taboo at the time, so there was no need to be afraid of Fang Yi's love.

"No, they're back with a lot of spices."

"Spices? A lot of spices? ”

Don't look at Li Tai's chubby, he looks stupid.

Actually, he is not stupid at all, on the contrary, he is very smart.

Du Chuke exchanged most of the goods in the Wei Palace's mansion for pepper, and he knew about it.

This month alone, he has invited credit in front of him several times, and he also knows that the current property in the palace has risen a lot compared to last year.

However, now that the fishing fleet in the East China Sea has brought back a large amount of spices from the South Sea, can the price of this pepper continue to rise?

I'm afraid I can't go down immediately.

Du Chuke: "Yes, very much, very, very much, definitely more than the spices that Abdul brought to Chang'an City." ”

"Lord Wang, isn't that the price of spices about to plummet?"

Chai Lingwu couldn't sit still on the side, and during this time, all Li Tai gave to himself was pepper.

He also felt the joy of rising pepper prices, so he also participated in the hype of pepper hoarding.

If the price falls sharply......

"Lord Wang, while the news has not spread, let's quickly sell the pepper in the house, it's too late if the action is slow."

Du Chuke made his own proposal.

"Yes, sell it. Didn't all those peppers come from Abdul? Hurry up and sell all this pepper back to him. Li Tai immediately thought of a solution, "This king doesn't take advantage of him, how much discount he sells to us, today we will sell it back to him at a discount on the basis of the market price." ”

Chai Lingwu couldn't sit down anymore, "His Royal Highness King Wei, something happened suddenly today, I will leave first, and we will meet again another day." ”

After saying that, he hurriedly got up and left.

And in the palace of the King of Wei, there was also a period of chaos, Li Tai personally beckoned his subordinates, looking for carriages to find carriages, and going to the treasury to carry pepper to carry pepper.

And Du Chuke once again trotted into the carriage and headed for the West Market.

He had to go and talk to Abdul in advance, so that nothing would happen in a while.

After all, he can only succeed in this matter, not fail, otherwise he will not be able to mix in the Wei Palace.

……

The sun shines on people in spring, and it doesn't feel hot at all, but gives people a very warm feeling. Wei Bao came to the door of Abu Spice Shop leisurely as in the past to see if he could buy a little more spices today.

Since the end of last year, he has a unique vision to find that hoarding spices seems to be able to make money, so he persuaded his own Langjun to support his idea.

Seeing that only a few months have passed, the money earned by the Wei family on spices is enough to make up for the loss of the Chengnan Carriage Company last year.

However, Wei Bao didn't know that the money without the bag was all floating clouds.

It's like the market value of a stock, you look at how much money you made in your account today, but if you still hold it and don't sell it for cash, then after a few days, this profit may become a loss.

"Abdul, how's it going, is the new spice arriving today?"

Wei Bao has been running to Abu Spice Shop every day recently, and he has become familiar with Abdul.

"Shopkeeper Wei, you came just in time, I just put a few loads of pepper into storage, if you come late, it will be gone."

Abdul was still upset about what Du Chuke had just done to find him, but he couldn't see anything strange on his face.

Forget it, don't think about it.

Since Du Changshi said that His Royal Highness King Wei was in a hurry to use the money, so he sold all the pepper to himself at a low price, which is true.

Otherwise, anyone can see that this kind of discount and fire sale behavior will lose a lot of money.

However, although he thinks so in his heart, Abdul, who has been in business for many years, still has some confusion in his heart.

As usual, if new spices arrived, he would never sell them all.

However, because of the vague worry in his heart, starting this afternoon, he plans to increase the sales of spices.

And the origin of this Wei Bao, Abdul has also understood, a typical big customer, one person is enough to buy a load of pepper, or even more.

"Really? How many loads of pepper? Can you sell me a load? Rest assured, with gold coins in one hand and pepper in the other, I will definitely not make it difficult for you. ”

Wei Bao was overjoyed and felt that he was really lucky today.

No wonder I woke up in the morning and heard the magpies chirping in the yard, feeling that my good luck was coming.

"If it were someone else, I wouldn't be able to sell it all at once. But your shopkeeper Wei is different, I don't sell you expensive, what price is sold in the shop this morning, you will take these peppers at this price. ”

Abdul did not dare to casually propose to reduce the price, because once the price reduction was started, it would be difficult to contain it.

Buying up and not buying down is a phenomenon that will not change at any time.

"Okay, but the gold coins I brought today are not enough to pay for a load of pepper, I will give a hundred gold coins as a deposit, and then let someone transport the pepper back, you can arrange a few guys to go back with me, and transport the rest of the money back."

It would be nice to be able to buy pepper, but Wei Bao didn't bargain.

This is the experience he has experienced first-hand in the past month.

……

As the largest wharf in Chang'an City, Weishui Wharf has shipped countless goods from here.

The East China Sea fishing fleet docked here, occupied the entire wharf, and it took nearly an hour to unload all the cargo.

With such a big movement, naturally some people are curious to inquire about it.

After coming and going, the news that the East China Sea fishery brought back a large amount of spices from the South China Sea naturally spread.

The coolies on the docks will know when they know about it, and this matter has nothing to do with them.

But some clever guys, especially those who participated in the hoarding of spices, immediately felt the importance of this news.

All of a sudden, many horses set off from Weishui Wharf and headed to various parts of Chang'an City.

"Your Majesty, Yu Chi Saburo and Fang Erlang have returned from Nanyang, and it is said that they have brought back a large amount of spices and bird's nest."

After Li Zhong got the news of the Baiqi Division for the first time, he immediately reported the situation to Li Shimin.

"Did they really come back from the South Seas?" Li Shimin put down the fold in his hand, "It's good to be back, I see that Xuan Ling seems to have lost some weight during this time, if he doesn't come back, I don't know how to comfort him." ”

"This time I went to Nanyang, it took a year, which is a bit unusual, and my subordinates will report to Your Majesty after inquiring about the situation."

"Well, it's okay for the person to be fine, and the rest doesn't matter."

Li Shimin didn't pay too much attention to what Li Zhong said about the fleet bringing back a large amount of spices and bird's nest.

However, Li Shimin's lack of attention does not mean that others do not pay attention.

That is, less than two quarters of an hour after Wei Bao left the Abu Spice Shop, a well-informed merchant in the West Market got the news.

And some nobles who made the same choice as Li Tai immediately arranged for someone to go to the West Market to find their next home.

In the past, it was hard to find a pound of spices, but it seems that there are suddenly more spices in the West Market.

"Shopkeeper Abdul, do you still recycle cinnamon in your shop? There is something urgent in my family, and I am in a hurry to use the money, so I will sell these catties of cinnamon back to you first, and when it eases up for a while, I will buy it back. ”

"I just bought two catties of pepper yesterday, and then I found out that I bought too much, can I return it?"

"Abdul, I bought the goods from your shop before, let's return some of them to you first, the government can't turn over funds, and you need money."

In less than half an hour, Abdul received wave after wave of strange customers.

In the past, these people were their big customers, and as long as they were willing to sell spices in large quantities, they could buy them in large quantities.

Now it's sudden......

Even if Abdul was slow to react, he knew that something must have happened.

So, after recovering the spices of a few people, Abdul found an excuse to start withdrawing.

"Don't have enough gold? It doesn't matter, it's okay to owe it first, you just need to write an IOU. ”

"That's it, I'll give you a nine-percent discount and sell it back to you at a nine-percent discount, so it's always okay, right?"

"Yes, nine percent off, I'm willing to give nine percent off."

Seeing that the price of spices actually began to decline, the customers who were originally going to buy spices in the Abu spice shop also began to hesitate.

Soon, I don't know who said: "I heard that the fleet of the East China Sea fishery under the South Seas has come back today, just at the Weishui Wharf, covering the sky and the sun, there are many boats, and it is said that a lot of spices have come back." ”

These words were like throwing a match into the oil pile, which immediately detonated the atmosphere of the Abu spice shop.

"That, I'm sorry, you return the gold coins to me, I won't sell this pepper first."

"Eighty-fifty discount, Abdul, I just bought this pepper from you a few days ago, and I will sell it back to you at eighty-fifty discount."

"Eighty percent off, as long as you give eighty percent off the price, all those nutmegs in my carriage will be yours."

……

The flotilla of the East China Sea fishing industry in the South Seas has returned, and this news is like the last straw that broke the camel's back, completely igniting the storm of spice prices in Chang'an City.
