Chapter 500: Rich and Rival Country

Previous Chapter

People's psychological expectations are extremely wonderful.

When the price breaks through a certain integer, there is some kind of chemical change.

Those small families who had the opportunity to invest in fine porcelain in the past can only sigh at this time.

If it's a seven-run bottle, they smash the pot and sell iron, maybe there is still a little chance to give it a try.

But when the price reached 80, it was impossible for them to even touch it.

The Chen family is crazy about selling bottles.

More than 100,000 bottles were put on the market, and there was no splash.

Nearly 10 million yuan of money flowed directly into the Chen family, and this ...... It's just a profit after a hoarding.

Even...... People on the market, in order to ask for bottles, came directly to the Chen family, willing to buy at the market price, the market price is 80 consistent, then 80 consistent transactions.

The Chen family said that they spread their hands because ...... There are really no bottles left, and the goods that were hoarded before have been released at one time.

But...... The people who came were not reconciled, they said that they could give money first, and as for the bottles, the Chen family only needed to write an IOU indicating how many bottles they owed, and wait until the Chen family produced them, and then repay the bottles.

Suddenly...... The prototype of futures also appeared.

People don't care about the bottle itself anymore.

What they wanted was a voucher indicating that there was a bottle here, and as long as the Chen family was willing to give the voucher, the money could be given.

The third uncle is blindfolded, can he still play like this?

Looking at the countless people with money and hunger on their faces, they just wanted to immediately smash these tens of thousands of hundreds of thousands of IOUs in his face, and all this can be done with just a receipt.

It's exciting to think about.

It's just that...... This behavior was quickly stopped by Chen Zhengtai.

Chen Zhengtai is a conscientious person, he believes in bartering, and although this kind of gameplay is very advanced, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not cause disputes in the future.

So...... The only means is to promote production.

In the whole Fuliang County, many huge chimneys are erected, here, countless laborers make the clay into porcelain embryos, and then special people use ink or colored pens to color, and now the main production here is bottles, so ...... Craftsmen practice makes perfect, and they have long been accustomed to this.

The craftsmen here are very satisfied with everything at the moment, working here in one day, they can earn three hundred yuan in one day, and this month, it is nine times, which is a large amount, in the past, they engaged in other livelihoods, even a year can not earn so much.

Of course...... They always feel very unsteady, just such a bottle and can, can it really be sold for money?

And it can be sold for a lot of money?

They witnessed the process of digging up the soil, sifting it, and finally making it into mud, which was then glazed and colored and sent to the kiln for firing.

They couldn't imagine that they broke their heads, just for such a lump of mud, the people outside actually fought enthusiastically, and it seemed that someone else broke their heads.

Of course, all this has nothing to do with them, the place where they work, often in the mountain col, near the kaolin mine, all the people are signed a contract to come in, not easy to leave, everyone must abide by the rules here, the person in charge of every process here, almost all of them are surnamed Chen, these people are said to be the children of the family, but look at their faces like black charcoal, rough hands and feet, where do they look like the sons of the family.

The only thing that connects here is a dirt road, which eventually connects to the docks, which will be guarded by special people, and even ...... Even going to the latrine needs to be approved.

Of course...... Although this kind of life is very hard, once compared to the income of nine times a month, plus three delicious meals a day, these are nothing.

What people fear most is poverty.

And the Chen family has promised that as long as everyone behaves well, they will ...... in the future The kilns are stopped here, and they may take them to the bigger world.

What the bigger world is like, the big guys don't know, but for many people, they believe in the Chen family.

The Chen family is willing to give money, be creditworthy, and take care of everyone's daily life.

These people who are rolling in the mud have lived in the mountains for a long time, so they have a unique simplicity.

When the fine porcelain from a kiln was fired, it was immediately packed together with a box mixed with rice stalks, and a cart was pulled to the wharf, where many boats had been waiting for a long time.

From there they will enter the Xinjiang River, then follow the waterway of the branch line into the Yangtze River, then turn to the canal, from the canal, to Tianjin, and then slowly follow the river into Guanzhong.

It's a long waterway, and it passes through too many rivers, but ...... Because it mainly depends on shipping, except for the delay in transportation, there will be no accidents.

Obviously, on the one hand, it is to intensify the demand for fine porcelain in the market, and the price will continue to rise, and on the other hand, directly put a big move.

Therefore, it seems that both sides are brewing, and each other is like a ring, the Chen family does not ship, there are fewer and fewer goods on the market, the price continues to rise, and there are more people asking for goods.

Until two months later, nearly 250,000 fine porcelains were ready to be released.

And the price of fine porcelain ...... It has already broken through 100 times.

Then, like a flood, the goods began to be slowly put on the market.

This process took more than half a month, and in the end, the Chen family received as much as 27 million yuan.

Coupled with the previous income of nearly 20 million guan, since the emergence of fine porcelain, the Chen family's profit has reached nearly 50 million guan.

And this ...... It does not include the mortgage of countless land and properties.

If they all add up, Chen Zhengtai himself can't count them.

In terms of 50 million yuan alone, this figure is extremely terrifying, which is almost equivalent to the current Zhenguan period, the treasury income of more than three years, and almost the same as the wealth created by the entire Tang Dynasty, where everyone does not eat or drink.

That's fine, if you add land and other collateral, then this value will be doubled.

One year ...... Tens of millions of households, get up early and work late at night, enough to work for a year's wealth...... Now, everything has flowed into the Chen family.

Chen Zhengtai looked at the accounts and felt terrible.

And at this time...... Because the Chen family invested too much fine porcelain at one time, the price finally began to stabilize a little, but it was only stable, obviously...... There are still funds in the market, and the signs of continued growth are still there.

It may not be impossible to sell a few batches of fine porcelain in the future.

It's just that it's no longer possible to put it all at once, one after another, and it's no longer difficult to earn another 20 million.

Let alone...... There are still many clans who haven't had time to pledge their land!

So at this time, Chen Zhengtai was relaxed.

He thought of the lovely Zhu Wenye and Zhu Xianggong again, who had already claimed that fine porcelain could rise to three hundred.

Of course...... His words are not unreasonable, hasn't fine porcelain already created a miracle?

Relying on this shouting, his words gained so much fame that the study newspaper finally crushed the newspaper, and its sales exceeded 130,000 copies a day.

And the poor newspaper, even if the price is low, has been continuously compressed, and the sales have reached around 50,000.

When people become famous, they are happy when they drink cold water, and countless fame and fortune come one after another. Chang'an University invited Zhu Xianggong to give a lecture. The imperial court saw that he had a great reputation, and he was recruited several times, and the official position given to him was getting higher and higher, but Zhu Wenye naturally insisted on not accepting it.

People began to admire Zhu Wenye's virtue, mentioning this person, it is inevitable to compare it with another person in Chang'an City, and finally came to the conclusion that these two people are simply one in the sky and the other in the ground!

That's right, the one lying on the ground is Chen Zhengtai.

Of course, Chen Zhengtai didn't have time to deal with them, he was worried about spending money!

With so much money to keep it flowing, he seemed to be hoping that there would be a road further west than planning the necessary railroad.

The current Hetao area, divided into two, more than half of which is occupied by the Tubo people, they across the Tianshan Mountains and the plateau, has become the main obstacle of the Silk Road, not only that, the Hetao area of this era, and the desolate Gobi of later generations can be completely different, because the rain is abundant, a large amount of water and soil has not been destroyed, so the Hetao area, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is plugged in the south of the Yangtze River.

The Tibetan people grow a large amount of grain here, domesticate horses, and have a large population.

So much so that in history, at the end of the Tang Dynasty, the Tubo people were nightmares that the Tang Dynasty could not cut.

The reason why Chen Zhengtai wants to solve this big problem is because the Tubo people have a huge threat to Shuofang, and they ...... A large number of immigrants, gathered in Shuofang, must go west, seek more space, if you can seize the Hetao, then the whole area outside the Guan, there is a real grain base, and a huge rich pasture!

And once there is a railway, if these places can be connected, then the future ...... For the Chen family to gain a foothold outside the Guan, there is a greater foundation.

Therefore, Chen Zhengtai has been fighting with the envoys of Tibet recently.

The Tibetan envoys are very interested in the Tang Dynasty, on the one hand, the current big trouble of the Tubo people is the party and the Bailan people, and they are encircling and suppressing the remnants of the party people, so they need to make a good alliance with the Tang Dynasty.

Let alone...... The tributary system of the Tang Dynasty can always bring a lot of luxury goods to the Tubo people, and the Tibetan envoys seem to have always hoped to marry a real Tang princess, but for this, it took a lot of effort to carry out activities in Chang'an.

This envoy is called Ronzan, and the name is very strange, because the Tang Dynasty has handed over the diplomatic power to Chen Zhengtai to the northern tribes, so he had to come to the door and find Chen Zhengtai's head.

Chen Zhengtai still likes to socialize with foreign friends, and enthusiastically called the non-praise lane to his house, put a sumptuous banquet, and first poured a bottle of stuffy donkey, and this non-praise lane and Chen Zhengtai called him a brother.

If you want to say that this Tubo people are also real, when you see that Chen Zhengtai is a brother, what else can you say, so naturally she began to spit out the truth: "My family is a great sweater, and I have nothing to do, I just want to have a princess of the Tang Dynasty, and I will be satisfied." Tubo and the Tang Dynasty are friends of the world, and if they can become good friends of Qin and Jin, they will be close to each other. ”

The level of Chinese language in this discussion is quite high, Chen Zhengtai listened, and just said: "What does the Ministry of Rites say?" ”

On Zanlang said honestly: "Over there...... Instead, he said to help find a way, and then he would play. ”

Chen Zhengtai opened his mouth, but did not answer, and finally only frowned and shook his head.

Seeing that Chen Zhengtai wanted to speak and stopped, he cheered up and said, "What, is the Ministry of Rites wrong?" ”

Chen Zhengtai sighed and said: "You don't know, we say to think of a way, but there is no way." Nine times out of ten, it's putting your business aside. I am also a concubine, the Great Khan who has returned to the country, but I will be called Songtsen Gampo Khan. I'll tell you the truth...... This is ...... Suspend. Do you know why the current emperor wants to marry the princess to me? ”

After hearing this, his heart was already half cold, and he thought that there would be a good response to this matter, but after listening to Chen Zhengtai's words, it was obvious that Chen Zhengtai was much more sincere than the people in the Ministry of Rites, so he said: "Why?" ”

"Because my Chen family is rich." Chen Zhengtai said: "You should have heard of this. ”

"I've heard of it, I've heard of it." On Zanlang kept nodding: "This envoy has long admired His Highness's name of being rich in the world." ”

Chen Zhengtai said embarrassedly: "So...... Let's go, let's not talk about it. ”

On how could Zanlong let Chen Zhengtai go, and asked: "Oh, please Your Highness must talk about it." ”

"This ...... When I say it, it may not sound good, but my son of heaven is good at everything, it's just ...... A bit of power, like rich people. When Chen Zhengtai said this, he laughed dryly and said, "Ahem...... You can't go any further...... I'm going to make a mistake. Come on, come on, drink. ”

At this time, he was also quite proud: "In my Tubo country, there are herds of cattle and sheep, grain is piled up in the barn, and there are countless jewels in the treasury, so ...... In terms of wealth, it may not be as good as His Highness, but it should not be underestimated. ”

There is still confidence in this.

Money?

Does my Tubo country still lack this?

Chen Zhengtai said with a smile: "So, how many fine porcelains do you have in Tubo?" ”

"What? Fine porcelain? "I was stunned.

Chen Zhengtai immediately smiled: "What is money?" If there are cattle and sheep, and if there is grain, is it called rich? Brother, brother, this Chang'an, the way of playing has long changed, everyone talks about wealth, and only asks about the geometry of the porcelain bottle. Look at this wealthy family in Chang'an, which one doesn't have tens of thousands of bottles at home, if there are not even bottles, what kind of wealth is it? But it only adds to the laughter. ”

Fine porcelain this thing, on praise in Chang'an these days, really listen to the ears out of the cocoon, only know that this thing is very valuable, and jewelry jade, of course, this thing is more powerful, but also can rise in price, more powerful is that if you peddle jewelry and jade, you still need to find a destined person, the transaction is particularly cumbersome, but fine porcelain is different, as long as it is sold, someone will immediately rob it.

Seeing Chen Zhengtai look at him with disdain, this made Ronzan suddenly have a kind of countryman who has entered the city and is despised and has no knowledge.

He said, "How many bottles do you have to have in the house to marry a princess?" ”

"This ...... It's hard to say. Chen Zhengtai shook his head: "But the dignified Tubo Kingdom, if there are fewer bottles hidden in the house than my small family in the Tang Dynasty, I am afraid that Your Majesty will ...... will have a prejudice against the Tibetan state. Of course...... I have an opinion on fine porcelain, I don't like this thing, about fine porcelain, I have a headache when I hear it, I don't bother to say it, if you really want to inquire, you can inquire yourself. ”

Oh, it turns out that this county king doesn't like fine porcelain.

But when it comes to praise, I have to pay attention.

He thought about it now, no wonder he came to Chang'an, the officials of the Ministry of Rites were polite on the surface, but in fact, they always felt that it was so meaningful, it turned out to be perfunctory.

After eating and drinking, Chen Zhengtai sent him out, and couldn't help but say: "You and I are friends, I came to the house today, and I also sent a lot of Tibetan specialties. But...... Gifts are necessary, come ...... I'll send you two bottles to take home. ”

Send bottles......

These Tang Dynasty people...... It's crazy.

Sure enough, Chen Fu, who was behind Chen Zhengtai, sent the two bottles to the front of Ronzan Rong.

On Zanlong had no choice but to carry it and get into the carriage, and the place where he stayed was in the inn of Erpigou.

There was no way, the other envoys all lived in Honglu Temple, and only Chen Zhengtai was in charge of the affairs of the northern states, and he didn't bother to entertain them and let them live in their own hotels.

But as soon as they arrived at the inn, many people saw the praise, and their eyes couldn't move.

On Zanlong took a few followers and was about to go upstairs, but suddenly a businessman came forward: "Brother Tai stay, do you sell this bottle, one hundred and three times, how about it?" ”

One Hundred and Three Runs......

On Zanlong immediately gasped, and his eyes were about to fall.

Of course, he thinks that this porcelain bottle is very good, and this process can only be made by the powerful Tang Dynasty, but a bottle of one hundred and three times is really crazy.

Of course...... This is a gift from the very important county king, this thing can't be sold, and when asked in the future, it will be rude, and you can only shake your head when you praise it.

The merchant suddenly showed regret.

After spending the past few days at the inn, he began to meditate on how to accomplish the mission given to him by the Great Khan.

In the evening of the second day, someone suddenly knocked on the door out of breath, which made the guards vigilant all of a sudden, but Praise Rang calmly opened the door.

But seeing that it was still yesterday's businessman, he looked excited, and gestured with both hands: "Brother Tai, the porcelain vase is not there, or else, one hundred and ten consistent, I bought it." ”

On Zanlong was stunned for a while, yesterday it was still one hundred and three, and today ...... It's skyrocketing?

This thing...... Can the price continue to rise if you put it in your hand?

He frowned and said, "Don't sell, don't sell." ”

Shang Jia was disappointed: "My price is already very fair." ”

And on Zanlong, he insisted on not selling, and in the end, the merchant had no choice but to leave.

But the stranger thing is still to come, these days there are people to come to the door, the price of fine porcelain, it seems that it is still rising, everyone who visits, have reported the latest price, seems to be eager to praise the praise of the porcelain can be sold to themselves.

Until the price grows to 113 times...... Ronzan finally couldn't sit still.

In the country of Tibet, there is a legend.

There is a kind of divine soil in the world, and if you bury something in it, more of it will be born the next day.

He once imagined that if he had such soil and buried one gold in the soil, wouldn't he be able to produce two gold the next day? In this way, aren't you going to make a fortune?

Can ...... now He looked at the porcelain vase and suddenly a strange thought came to him...... This fine porcelain...... Isn't that the divine land?
