The meal was prepared quickly, a group of people sat down in the largest private room on the third floor as usual, chatting and drinking tea for only twenty minutes, and the wine and food were served one after another, there was no Xiang family group today, so Chen Xu naturally sat in the main seat in the north, Jiang Heng and Gao Yao accompanied him left and right, Jiang Chuxing brothers and sisters and Xiao He, Liu Bang, Cao Shen, Zhou Bo and other four King Kongs sat at will.

"Master Hou really decided to leave so early, Yao hasn't done his best to be a landlord!" A group of people at the wine table kept toasting Chen Xu, and Gao Yao was naturally the most regretful.

Almost all of their family's lives were saved by Chen Xu, although he was a gentleman before, and now he is still a gentleman, but now he has already decided to hug Chen Xu's thigh as a dog's leg.

"The mountains and rivers here are beautiful, the people are outstanding, the little lady who can't finish the food and can't finish eating, and this is also a huge place to make a fortune, Benhou will definitely come to Wuzhong again in the future!" Chen Xu smiled and clinked glasses with Gao Yao.

"Although Wuzhong is prosperous and rich, it is not necessarily a place to make a fortune, there are rivers and rivers everywhere, unlike the Central Plains, the roads are flat and smooth, and the goods are very inconvenient, and it is not easy to make a fortune doing business here!" Jiang Heng shook his head slightly and said.

"What the county keeper said is that although Wuzhong is rich in products, it is indeed inconvenient to transport back and forth, and it is all by boat to go out, so it is not as good as Wancheng in Luoyang, Xianyang!" Qu Hai also nodded in agreement.

"Oh, business opportunities are everywhere, the products of the south of the Yangtze River and the northwest are very different, the four seasons are like spring, the climate is suitable, in addition to the rice and aquatic products that can be seen by the enlightened eyes, in fact, with the gradual enrichment of people's lives, all kinds of consumption will gradually upgrade, porcelain, tea, wine, silk is an important area to enhance the level of commerce, these are not won by quantity, but by quality and scarcity, almost no tea is produced in the northwest, but tea has now almost become a fashion ...... in the country"

"Nowadays, the high-end wine on the market is only the wine of Fan's Winery, but the mulberry fields in the south of the Yangtze River are everywhere, mulberry wine is easier than mountain grapes, and the taste is no worse than wine......

"There is also tea, and now the tea on the market is almost monopolized by the Shui's Tea House, but almost all the tea production areas of the Shui's Tea House are in the Huaishui Basin, and the real good tea, in fact, are all in the south of the Yangtze River, not only the five lakes near the good tea, now Gao Junwei has recovered Fujian, Wuyi Mountain is also a huge tea-producing treasure land, and silk, Wuzhong is rich in silk, but it is only the most ordinary silk yarn and silk and other fabrics, although these silk fabrics are valuable, but not exquisite enough, You can improve the silk weaving process and gather handmade weavers to dye and knit more exquisite silk brocade on silk, a brocade embroidered with flowers, birds, insects and fish will inevitably appreciate dozens of times, but it will not consume more silk thread, just consume time......"

In the midst of the staggering, Chen Xu also said some views on the commercial development of Jiangnan by the way.

The Dongting Biluochun near Taihu Lake and the Dahongpao of Wuyi Mountain are the most famous teas in later generations.

At present, the climate of Daqin is much warmer and wetter than more than 2,000 years later, Lingnan is still full of reckless primeval forests, the land is sparsely populated and the vegetation is rich, and there are even elephants and rhinoceros, which are basically extinct in China in later generations, and other wild beasts such as wolves, bears, tigers, leopards, wild boars and other beasts are more numerous, although Chen Xu has not been to Wuyi Mountain in his previous life and this life, but the tea leaves on Wuyi Mountain must also grow luxuriantly, maybe the wild big red robe is all over the mountains, as long as it is developed, it will inevitably form a unique taste of characteristic tea, It is a huge business opportunity to develop into a tea estate comparable to Shui's Tea House.

"Master Hou said that there is good tea in Wuyi Mountain?" Gao Yao was instantly interested.

"Yes, there is a tea called Da Hong Pao in Wuyi Mountain, which has a mellow and fragrant taste, as long as it is made well, the quality of the tea is ......better than that of Zhishui's Tea House," Chen Xu nodded and said.

"Haha, it seems that a certain is really going to get rich, it turns out that there is good tea in Wuyi Mountain, my father doesn't know yet, every time I drink the tea leaves, I still go to Wuzhong Shui's Tea House to buy it, it seems that after going back this time, I will definitely let the mountain people pick some and taste it!" Gao Yao excitedly poured two large glasses of wine.

"Do you know how to make tea and manage it?" Chen Xu asked with a smile.

"Uh, no!" Gao Yao shook his head.

"Hehe, it's okay if Gongzi Gao won't, we can help, how about making a fortune together?" Quhai and other four merchants in the Five Lakes Park naturally increased their interest.

"Haha, naturally, I can be responsible for picking tea, you can arrange the production and sales, and make a fortune together!"

"Okay, as long as there is Gao Gongzi's words, we can start preparing for the tea workshop later, and we can sell the big red robe that Hou Ye said to all parts of the country next spring!" Qu Hai and the four of them looked at each other and smiled, and then raised their glasses together, "Hou Ye's words, I will find another business opportunity to make a fortune, and then this tea house will definitely be grateful to Hou Ye with a few dividends!" ”

"The bonus is okay, when the new tea is on the market, remember to send me some tastings every year!" Chen Xu shook his head and smiled indifferently.

"Hey, where is Hou Ye, Hou Ye doesn't say how we know that there is good tea in Fujian, and when we prepare the tea house, at least 30% of the dividends with Hou Ye ......"

"Hou Ye, don't shirk, now that Shui's Tea House is famous in Daqin, it will be difficult for us to successfully launch new tea, but with Hou Ye's recommendation, it's different, this is Hou Ye's deserved benefit, I'm just following Hou Ye to make a fortune......"

"Yes, yes, don't shirk yet, if you don't receive this dividend, I'm afraid my father will break Yao's leg!"

Several businessmen hurriedly hugged Chen Xu's thighs, and Gao Yao also nodded again and again.

"Since you are so enthusiastic, then Ben Hou will not shirk, when the time comes, when the new tea is on the market, Ben Hou will help promote it among the princes and princes of Xianyang, and then arrange to do some advertising for the new tea in the Xianyang Metropolis Daily, and it will be famous all over the world soon!"

Chen Xu knew the thoughts of a few businessmen and Gao Yao, so he didn't continue to shirk, not to mention that this kind of talk and follow to make money should not be in vain, as long as the big red robe sells well, maybe you can make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, so you should pick it up by walking.

"Master Hou said that mulberry wine is also promising, why don't we prepare a winery at the same time and find a few craftsmen who are proficient in winemaking......

"Yes, mulberry wine does taste much better than turbid wine, and it doesn't waste food, so you can brew and sell it freely, since Hou Ye talked about it, this wine shop will inevitably share Hou Ye's dividends at that time......

Several businessmen began to discuss the matter of winemaking again, and Chen Xu put down his wine glass and shook his head and said: "I don't want the dividends of this winery, your parents are here, Lord Jiang is here, can you patronize me, if you want to make the mulberry wine industry bigger, Lord Jiang can buy shares!" ”

"Master Hou, where are you talking about this!" Jiang Heng hurriedly put down the wine glass and shook his head.

"Hehe, there are so many business opportunities in the world, how can Ben Hou get involved in everything, there are many mulberry fields in the south of the Yangtze River, and the mulberry production is huge, as long as the people of Jiang are good to support the mulberry wine bigger and stronger, and strive to make a business card in Wuzhong, it will inevitably be profitable, Ben Hou is not short of money, but I hope that Lord Jiang and you will remember Ben Hou's words, the world's money and grain, should be taken from the people for the people, and must not be used to exploit the common people, the price of mulberry purchase is also appropriately higher, and the profits of mulberry wine will be more distributed to the people of Wuzhong, and it will be a dividend for Ben Hou......" Chen Xu smiled and waved his hand.

"Hou Ye is benevolent and righteous, if the people of Wuzhong know Hou Ye's words, they will be grateful, Hou Ye rest assured, we must remember Hou Ye's teachings, and we will definitely discuss a reasonable price to buy mulberries!"

Jiang Heng's face was extremely excited, and he quickly nodded, and Qu Hai and several other businessmen also stood up with reverence on their faces, raised their wine glasses, and toasted again.

After eating and drinking for half an hour, Chen Xu also remembered whether there were any pearls in the big lake mussel, so after eating and drinking, he picked his teeth and went to the hotel room again to watch the mussel shell under the hug of a group of slightly drunk people.

……

"Did you touch it?"

In the hotel room of Wuhu Garden, a group of guards are surrounding a large wooden basin, the floor of the room is full of water, the huge clam shell has opened a gap half a foot wide at this time, the two shells are stuffed with knives, guns, sticks and teacups and stones, one of the shirtless guards is lying in the wooden basin, half of his body is almost submerged in the water, one arm is poking into the mussel shell and is groping, and the onlookers are all nervous looking at this guard and the big mussel shell, looking very weird.

"Also...... I haven't touched it yet, the gap is too small, and the inside is too deep...... Feel like you have a big tongue...... Wow~~" The guards who were touching around suddenly let out a ghostly scream, and everyone in the room trembled in fright.

"What's going on?"

Chen Xu brought Jiang Heng and the others in, and heard this terrible and frightened ghost cry outside the door, so he hurriedly walked into the room and asked loudly.

"My hand...... The hand was wrapped in a big tongue...... "The guard lying in the basin yelled with a twisted face.

"Click~"

Just as the guard turned his head to answer, there was a slight thud, and a stone stuffed in the crack of the shell was crushed, and the gap suddenly closed two inches, almost completely clamping the guard's arm.

"Whew~Hurry up and help break it~"

Not only the guards were pale in fright, but Chen Xu and the others also all changed their faces, and without waiting for Chen Xu to greet a few guards, they rushed up, seven or eight pairs of big hands broke the two shells of the mussel shell to both sides, and with the sound of crunching, a series of blisters came out of the mussel shell.

"It's dangerous~"

Everyone wiped their foreheads together, and the guards also took the opportunity to take their arms out of the shells, constantly rubbing their wrists in horror.

This mussel shell is too big, more than five feet in length, that is, more than one meter, and more than three feet in width, under the premise of not killing the mussel shell, it can only compete with this mussel shell repeatedly, so a group of guards have been fighting back and forth with this rare giant mussel in the room for more than half an hour when Chen Xu and the others went to eat and drink, and half a pot of stones, bricks, and wood that was broken by the mussel shell.

"Did you touch a pearl?" Chen Xu asked as he pulled the guard's arm.

"No, it's as soft as a huge tongue, and when you put your hand into it, it's so powerful that your wrist is almost broken......," the guard's face twisted like a shoehorn.

"Master Hou should forget it, either throw it away, or kill it......" Xiao He said next to him.

Chen Xu pinched his chin and stared at the clam shell for a long time, then frowned and turned his head to look at Qu Hai and said, "Go get a few bottles of wine!" ”

Well, everyone in the room looked at Chen Xu in confusion.

"Hehe, since it can't be hard, you can come soft, pour some wine into the giant mussel, maybe it will ......be drunk," Chen Xu explained with a smile.

"I see, Master Hou's plan will definitely work, when people are drunk, they are like mud, and once this mussel shell is drunk, it will be easy to pry open the shell......"

"Yes, go get some wine!"

A group of people instantly understood, Qu Hai hurriedly ran out of the room to give a few orders, and soon a maid brought a few bottles of wine from Fan's Winery.

Xiao He, Liu Bang and the others each picked up a bottle of wine and opened it, and then poured it out of the gaping gap of the lake mussel.

"Don't pour too much, be careful to get drunk!" Seeing a group of people pouring wine happily, Chen Xu twitched a few times to remind.

So Xiao He and the others quickly stopped, but at this time, they had almost poured two bottles.

Next, a group of people continued to watch the giant mussel intently.

After about ten minutes, with a click, a stick caught in a shell fell from the loose crack to the ground, and soon all the stones and bricks stuffed in the crack were loosened and fell into the basin.

"Haha, open and open!"

Xiao He Jiang Heng and the others stroked their palms and laughed, the atmosphere in the room instantly became warm, and after waiting for another three or five minutes, Chen Xu broke the shell that was still open with his hand, but the shell that was infinitely powerful and incomparably thick shook gently like a wooden door.

Chen Xu broke the shell almost ninety degrees with both hands, and the huge lake mussel didn't react in the slightest.

Nima knew this earlier, why bother in the first place, and poured two bottles of wine directly into the basin earlier, and everything would be fine!

Chen Xu glanced at the muddy water all over the ground and half a pot of broken stones in the wooden shed, turned his head to the teacup of wood, couldn't help but smile wryly, shook his head, reached out and picked up all the brick and stone sawdust that fell into the mussel and threw it to the ground.

A huge three-foot-long mussel tongue floated softly in the turbid water without any movement, Chen Xu moved his hand back and forth a few times, then reached under the mussel tongue and touched it back and forth carefully, and then his face showed surprise.

"How is Master Hou, did you touch the pearl?" Jiang Heng asked excitedly.

"Lord Jiang should also touch it, there should be a huge pearl here!" Chen Xu stood up and pointed to a position, Jiang Heng quickly rolled up his sleeves and stuffed his hand into the soft clam meat and touched it a few times, instantly looked excited, nodded in surprise and said, "Yes, it's really a big one." ”

"I'll touch it!" When Jiang Heng stood up, Gao Yao also quickly reached in again and touched it a few times, and couldn't help but exclaim: "It's so big, you've made a fortune, it's the size of a goose egg!" ”

"I'll come, I'll come~" Xiao He, Liu Bang and others couldn't help but roll up their sleeves, and seven or eight hands rushed into the clam shell meat and pinched it.

After a few minutes, the room was quiet, Chen Xu arranged for a few guards to replace the wooden basin with clean water, soak the giant clam again, and then sat on the chair and said: "Since there is definitely a big pearl inside, then this auspicious rui can naturally be presented to the emperor at that time, tomorrow morning Benhou will leave Wuzhong, this matter will be handled by Lord Jiang, if you want to take the pearl after the emperor arrives, you can still make it in the same way, and don't hurt the life of this big mussel, after taking the pearl, it is better to throw it into the lake and release it!" ”

"Master Hou, why don't you take out the pearl now?" Gao Yao said puzzled.

"There is no need, the matter of the giant clam has been boiling in Wuzhong, it is better to wait for the emperor to come and take the pearl, so as not to be coveted, this Hou came to Wuzhong, you must remember to keep it secret, by the way, Zhou Bo will stay in Wuzhong for the time being, you, the warrior who dug out the auspiciousness, will definitely be rewarded by the emperor if you offer this treasure!"

Zhou Bo's honest face, which was still a little pale, instantly flushed with excitement, stood up, and opened his mouth wide for a long time, not knowing what to do.

"Since ancient times, all kinds of treasures have depended on chance, this is an opportunity that you almost exchanged for your life, and the reward should also be yours, don't be too excited......"

Under Chen Xu's arrangement, Jiang Heng quickly left the hotel and returned home to arrange tomorrow's water god festival, and the people of Wuhuyuan also spread the news, so that the people of Wuzhong would go to the water temple at the foot of Gusu Mountain early tomorrow morning to worship the water god and lake god, and then they could watch the largest lake mussel ever emerging from the earthquake.

And Chen Xu also began to arrange for the guards and the teenager to clean up and salute.

Jiangnan Water Town, especially this is the summer right now, there are simply too many places to eat, drink and have fun, just the shrimp, crabs, fish and turtles in the lake are enough for him to eat slowly for ten days and half a month without repeating the same, and in addition to eating, the commercial activities here are completely different from Xianyang Luoyang, at least just planting mulberry and silkworm breeding and weaving silk He has not yet observed it, these are extremely important for the future development of Daqin, the agricultural and commercial industry is not only related to the prosperity and development of Daqin, but also related to the life of the people in Jiangnan.

However, the timing is not right this time, if you continue to stay, it is estimated that your identity may not be kept secret at all in a few days, and the emperor has left Langya now, and he also needs to rush to Langya as soon as possible to find Hou Sheng, and see if he can catch this bastard by chance.

Because it was this bastard who hurt him, and his family was almost ruined.

Because of the Five Poisons Soul Water, not only did his mother Chen Jiang almost become an accomplice, but he also ran away with his wife's gentle water, and this revenge Chen Xu had to be avenged. ()
