Since most of the perfume buyers are women, and they are the ones who use them, the business of the store during the day and at night has become two extremes, selling a few hundred bottles during the day and difficult to sell at night.

One is that there are very few women who come out at night, and the second is that there are not many men who enter the store, and even if they enter the store, they just look at it, in short, they see more and buy less.

Faced with this situation, Yang Congyi is not worried or cared, because the target group of perfume is women, and it is enough to catch them, although occasionally men buy perfume for the woman they like, but after all, they are a minority.

Besides, he didn't want the Song Dynasty man to indulge in gentleness in the countryside, and he gathered around the woman all day long, which was more fat and less courageous to forge ahead.

Because in the past few days since he returned to Lin'an, he has heard some news about the north sporadically, some people say that the north is massing troops and actively preparing for war, but some people say that it is all rumors, and the north is now calm.

The news from all walks of life is false and real, no one can distinguish the clear, except for the discussion between the DPRK and China, the whole Lin'an City is peaceful, singing and dancing, with the return of the Yi fleet, prosperous and lively, more than in the past.

But Yang Congyi knew that Wan Yanliang would definitely go south, maybe Jin Guo was ready.

However, he is just a return envoy, his duty is to make money for the imperial court, in addition, there is no more duty, there is no more power, he can only stay in the corner when he has nothing to do, and it is impossible to have the opportunity to participate in the military and political affairs of the imperial court, and he does not even have the opportunity to discuss.

Even if he made a voice from the bottom, it was impossible for it to be heard by the high-exalted, unattainable courtiers.

All he has to do is wait for the opportunity, wait for a blockbuster opportunity!

Before that, he couldn't make mistakes and couldn't be dismissed, otherwise with his humble official position, it would be impossible for him to be promoted and favored by the imperial court.

Now Lin'an is not panicking, at least it means that Yan Liang's army has not yet gone south, then he still has a lot of time to prepare, and when this return to Yi is completely over, he will have time to prepare well, in case the Jin people go south and the Jingwu army is requisitioned, then his opportunity may come.

"Fragrant Jinghua" perfume, half a month sold tens of thousands of bottles, in Lin'an City, almost everyone knows about the daughters and ladies, no one knows, almost every day there will be people queuing up to buy.

In less than a month, perfume almost conquered the backyards and boudoirs of high-ranking families and eunuchs, and became a secret medicine and a sharp weapon to rebuild a good relationship between husband and wife.

Perfume has become the most popular thing for women in Lin'an, and it must be an inseparable topic for sisters to meet.

The shrewd-minded and quick-reacting businessman immediately began to inquire about the origin of the perfume.

The only source they could find was "Xiangman Jinghua", and the guys and accountants on duty in the store did not hide it, and directly told them that the perfume came from the Huiyi fleet, which was in the port of Mingzhou.

The news that the secret elixir-like perfume came from the Huiyi fleet gradually spread among the merchants, this thing can make a lot of money, how can it be let go as a merchant?

Some merchants who have purchased Western goods in the fleet did not see those strange-smelling things in the selection area at the beginning, but now they know that they are selling hot in Lin'an, and regret it.

Those people didn't even go back to Yishi, they rushed to Mingzhou non-stop, scrambling to be the first, hoping that God would favor them and give them another chance!

With the delivery of most of the goods, the Huiyi camp in Mingzhou, which is gradually deserted, became lively again after the spice merchants who came to purchase perfumes, essences and other women's favors came one after another.

I don't know if God will give the businessmen a chance to make money, but Lu You gave them the opportunity to buy as many perfumes and spices as they want, as long as they have enough money.

Lu You has already received the news from Yang Congyi from Lin'an, perfume and other spices used by women have been promoted smoothly, the name of perfume has spread throughout the city in a short time, and the temporary sales point is extremely hot, and the batch of spices brought to Lin'an has been sold nearly half.

Why the temporary price increase, Lu You did not ask, nor did he delve into it, the original purchase price was determined according to the established profit.

The amount of money to be paid to the merchant at the barter office is not small, and if the quantity of goods available in the fleet is sold at the purchase price originally set, the final amount of money obtained is not much more than the amount of money to be repaid by the barter.

If the purchase price for the merchants is increased by fifty percent as a whole, then there will be a large profit in the return office, how to deal with this money, Lu You has not thought about it, because there are too many merchants who come to purchase perfumes, and he is too busy.

But fortunately, before the arrival of these merchants, Lu You had already arranged for someone to adjust the price of perfume and other spices, which were not favored before, and not many people paid attention to the price of perfume.

Perfume is a brand new commodity for merchants, there are many types, the price is expensive, and the time to sign the transaction contract takes more, and often half an hour can not close a deal, because those things, they are dazzled, and no one can quickly make up their minds, saying what they want or what they don't want.

However, because perfume is too famous in the inner courtyard of Lin'an City, businessmen do not dare to have too much hesitation, after all, time is money, and if you take a slow step, the opportunity to make money may slip away.

In less than ten days, six ships of cargo were empty.

The businessmen who are far away from Lin'an, the news is not well-informed enough, and when they come to Huiyi, they can only sigh and be a step late, because the Huiyi fleet has announced that all the goods brought back from the sea this time have been sold out, and there is no remaining goods!

A few days later, the goods were delivered, and a fleet of dozens of empty ships left for Changguo, resting in the old land of the Xuanwei Army, waiting for orders.

Lu You returned to Lin'an by land, and went home to stay for a few days when passing through San'in, needless to say.

In mid-August, the Hui Yi Office will pay off the arrears of materials owed by the superintendent when making the Hui Yi, and this Hui Yi will end with the last payment of money.

At the end of August, more than two months after the fleet returned to Quanzhou, and more than a month after the foreign mission arrived in Lin'an, the Huiyi Office officially sent a written reply to the imperial court, and the court's commendation was delivered to the Huiyi Office.

Yang Congyi, Lu You, and Shen Jin returned to Yi and made meritorious contributions, and when they exchanged products with Western countries, they did not forget to promote the majesty of the Great Song Dynasty, and even made the Western Fatila country collapse far and wide, and sent envoys to congratulate them from thousands of miles away, and made great achievements.

Hereby, Yang Congyi is the official Hui Yi as Wu Xian's doctor, supervising the return of the Yi Office, and concurrently serving as the West Workshop Envoy, giving Qiantang County a Sanjin Mansion.

Lu You and Shen Jin were promoted to Chaosanlang, promoted to deputy envoy of Huiyi, and gave 100 gold.

The elite generals who escorted Huiyi had their own promotions and rewards.

Along with the commendation, there was also the imperial court's order to return to Yi, ordering the return to be continued, and requiring the fleet to go to sea next year to reach 100 ships, and hand over 60 million yuan in profits!

Lu You, who was promoted, was very happy.

"Brother Yang, the return to Yi is over, and the promotion is rewarded, shouldn't you go to celebrate tonight and relax?"

"No, I'm not interested in Yingge Yan Dandan."

But Yang Congyi didn't look very excited, and there was even worry on his face.

Lu You soon noticed his abnormality, so he asked: "Brother Yang doesn't seem to be very happy, what a great honor it is to be promoted to an official and give a house, put it on others, I can't wait to entertain guests immediately, advertise all directions, but why is Brother Yang like this?" ”

Yang Congyi was silent for a long time.

Then he asked a question: "Brother Lu, do you think your official position is being promoted quickly?" ”

Lu You suddenly fell silent, and the excited look on his face quickly disappeared.

"Do you know that there are more than 400 jinshi in Shaoxing in the twenty-fourth year, and the person with the highest official position is holding any position now?" Yang Congyi looked at each other quietly.

Lu You was silent.

"Champion Zhang Xiaoxiang, as secretary Lang, is eight products. Most of the rest are either waiting for officials to be assigned, or they are serving as county officials, chief secretaries, and state government schools and educators in local prefectures and counties. But Zhang Xiaoxiang's secretary Lang was dismissed not long ago, do you know why? Yang Congyi's expression was solemn.

Not long after Lu You returned to Lin'an, where would he know these things, he was speechless, and could only listen to what the other party said.

I only heard Yang Congyi say: "Brother Lu should know Zhang Xiaoxiang, right?" He is seven or eight years younger than you and me, twenty-four years and Brother Lu took the same subject, that year with reference to Qin Hui's grandson, after winning the champion, the court gave him an official position, the first thing he did was to write to the court, for Yue Fei to complain, because this matter offended Qin Hui, and then in the court in the face of Qin Hui's henchman Cao Yong's initiative to propose, shut up and did not answer, directly offended Qin Hui and others, quite implicated. After Qin Hui's death, he gained a firm foothold in the court, and was promoted to secretary Lang within a few years, and the speed of promotion was not fast. But not long ago, due to the war and the dispute, he was personally deposed by his mentor Tang Siwei and expelled from Lin'an. If he hadn't been deposed, his official position that had risen steadily would not be comparable to Brother Lu, the gap between the two of you is so big, is it because Zhang Xiaoxiang was born slightly cold, and Brother Lu is a scholar? ”

The more Lu You listened, the more unbearable his face became, because he didn't know why the other party suddenly attacked him.

After a short silence, Yang Congyi continued: "There is a word called 'killing', I don't know if Brother Lu has heard it." It means that if you want to suppress a very good person, one of the best ways is to hold him up infinitely, as high as he can, so that everyone can see him, attract everyone's attention, and put everything about him in everyone's sight. Then, once he makes any small mistake, he can be infinitely magnified like praising him, and finally let him fall suddenly, die without a place to be buried, and never turn over again. Whether Zhang Xiaoxiang was picked up to attract everyone's attention, I don't know, but you and I in the Hui Yi place, including Brother Shen, absolutely, there is no doubt about it! ”
