Chapter 57: Good Wine
Guan Ping didn't bother with these guys, they were just a group of turtles. For example, if you haven't seen an airplane, you don't think there is an iron box in the world that can make people fly.
Despise it.
Zhang Yuan, a businessman in the restaurant, did not change his face, this wine seller can sell wine like this, but Zhang Yuan has seen it for the first time and heard of it for the first time.
So when Zhang Yuan heard about this, he immediately rushed over. Extraordinary people, do extraordinary things. In this gambling game, the opponent can pay ten gold as gambling money.
There's no reason why this wine is cheap.
Zhang Yuan had already been mentally prepared for this, so he said without thinking: "Can you taste it?" ”
Guan Ping was also refreshed, personally took a clean wine glass, poured a glass of wine, and handed it to Zhang Yuan. And reminded: "This wine is strong, drink it in small sips." ”
Zhang Yuan nodded to show that he understood, and after taking the wine glass, he did not drink in a hurry, but put it in front of his nose and smelled it.
Then, Zhang Yuan took a sip, the population was like fire, and when the wine entered his stomach, the fire burned even more vigorously. Zhang Yuan held his breath, his face turned red, and after a long time, he spit out a mouthful of wine and sighed: "It's really good wine." ”
Immediately, Zhang Yuan said to Guan Ping: "I want twenty jars of wine." ”
Zhang Yuan, a restaurant businessman, is not an unknown little person, but a well-known figure in Anhui City. Of course, those who open restaurants are also people who can drink.
At this moment, Zhang Yuan sighed for good wine, and wanted to buy a thousand catties of wine in one go, and the onlookers knew that this wine was really good wine, so naturally there was a commotion, and many people also wanted to buy wine.
Zhang Yuancai was very refreshed, but Guan Ping shook his head and refused: "Mr. Zhang, I'm sorry, I brought this wine from Xinye." There are not many reserves. You also need to go to Kure to sell it. Only two jars of wine can be sold to you. ”
Speaking of this, Guan Ping said very sincerely: "This wine is produced by the workshop of Mr. Mi Zhu Mi's family under General Zuo. Lujiang County goes up the Yangtze River, and it doesn't take much effort to reach Xinye. If Mr. Zhang is interested, he can send someone to Xinye to buy it. By the way, Liu Gong, the assassin of Yuzhou, the general of Zuo, is currently short of food, servants, slaves, horses, and various military supplies. Willing to buy at a premium. If Mr. Zhang has these bulk goods, he can go to Xinye to sell them, and when he returns, he can bring back Mi's wine, killing two birds with one stone. ”
There is no shortage of smart people around, and Zhang Yuan is one of them. He laughed and said, "I see." That Mi Zhu is a famous businessman in the world, and my family used to go to Xuzhou to transport grain, and he is an old businessman. You're here to sell wine, and you're not here to sell wine. It's to play a striker and promote Mi's wine. ”
After laughing, Zhang Yuan was not annoyed, but said with a smile: "Okay, I'll buy two jars of wine and go back to the restaurant to sell it, if it's good to sell, I'll go to Xinye to buy wine." If there is food for slaves and maids, they will also be sent to Xinye, and the ship will not fail. ”
"Thank you, Mr. Zhang." Guan Ping said very politely. Immediately, Zhang Yuan, a businessman in this restaurant, ordered a few people to follow, picked up two jars of wine, turned to leave, and soon blended into the crowd and disappeared.
Zhang Yuan, a businessman in this restaurant, made a start, and there were more people buying wine. However, there are few people who buy the whole jar of wine, but there are many people who want to buy five catties, and ten catties.
Guan Ping was unprepared for this, but it was easy to do. Let Wei Yan send his soldiers to buy a smaller wine jar and put it in a container.
This thousand catties of Mi's wine were sold out in the blink of an eye. plus the previous gambling wins, I earned more than a dozen gold. It's just enough to buy a good war horse.
It's not big business.
On the surface, this business dispatched Guan Ping and Wei Yan, and the two of them are still overkill.
But that's not how it works. The fame has been hit, and powerful businessmen such as Zhang Yuan, a restaurant merchant, have known about this wine.
Businessmen seek profit.
When there is a market and there is demand, they will buy the product. Guan Ping planned to stay in Lujiang for three days and release a thousand catties of wine every day.
After waiting for three days, Guan Ping felt that there would be a spirit merchant, steer the ship, carry the gold coins, and go to Xinye.
If you are bold, you may prepare a small amount of food, and the slaves and maids will go to find out if the left general Liu Bei really buys slaves and maids and grain at a premium.
Lujiang Wancheng is the first stop, and Guan Ping's next stop is to go to Wu County, with Wu County as the center, to promote this Mi's wine. If possible, it's best to meet Sun Quan's goods.
If Sun Quan likes this wine, he will reward his ministers with this Mi wine. That business must be rolling in.
This is Guan Ping's publicity plan, which is promoted along the road. After going back in this circle, if possible, go up the river again and promote it to Bashu.
As long as Bashu and Jiangdong merchants gather in Xinye, then Liu Biao's blockade plan will be completely useless.
This game is broken.
Guan Ping, Wei Yan and others entered the city at noon, but they sold out the wine in two hours, and when they went back, it was still very bright.
Guan Ping is by no means a stingy person, and after the victory, he led Wei Yan and twenty elite soldiers to the restaurant in the city to eat.
Coincidentally, it is the restaurant opened by the merchant of the restaurant, called Zhangjia Restaurant
After eating and drinking, the group left Anhui City before dark and went back to the southern ferry, where the large group of people landed.
When the fleet docks, there is no need to set up camp, just rest on the ship. It's just that the bowl of rice needs to be buried on the shore to make rice, and it is also necessary to send people to keep vigil at night, so that no young people will have evil intentions and attack them.
Wei Yan has his own worries about these things, and he doesn't need to be taken care of.
There were 300 soldiers who came with him this time. There are only a dozen ships, and they still need to carry 10,000 catties of wine. Most of the soldiers were crammed into the cabins.
Guan Ping and Wei Yan have an exclusive cabin.
In the huge cabin, there are two beds, separated by a small desk, on which is an oil lamp. Because on the water, the boat rocks from time to time.
For those who have a nervous breakdown and can't sleep at night, this environment is simply a disaster. Guan Ping was also not used to it, and after washing, he couldn't fall asleep in bed.
Soon after, Wei Yan walked in from outside.
"Ping'er, you have opened my eyes today, you have done a beautiful job." Wei Yan said to Guan Ping while untying his clothes.
After taking off his clothes and shoes, Wei Yan got into the quilt, and then blew out the oil lamp.
This is a heartfelt statement, as the so-called art industry has a specialization. If Wei Yan is asked to analyze the terrain of the mountains and rivers in the world, and the military is dangerous, Wei Yan can talk like a river and say that it will last ten days and ten nights.
For example, after entering Jiangdong, Wei Yan analyzed the terrain and situation of Jiangdong.
But when it comes to business, Wei Yan doesn't know anything. Not only did Wei Yan know nothing, but Liu Bei's subordinates also didn't know anything about martial arts, so Guan Ping went to the east.
Wei Yan and Guan Ping entered Anhui City together, without saying a word, but they saw everything in their eyes, and had to admit that Guan Ping did a very beautiful job.
Selling liquor is only secondary, and the publicity is really in place.
