Chapter 74: Grain in exchange

Li Shimin took out the other wine in the palace.

This wine is also a good wine, but it makes people get hotter and hotter the more they drink, and their mood becomes irritable.

The comparison of the two wines makes it more and more beer-friendly.

"Lord Wang, I don't know where you bought this beer?"

"Yes, the beer is very good, and I want to buy a few jars to drink."

Everyone asked, Li Shimin said: "This wine is produced in Qinjia Village, it is brewed by Qin Tian, he is in this palace at this time, you want to buy it, you can ask him." ”

With that, Li Shimin sent someone to call Qin Tian up.

After Qin Tian came out, these princes and nobles immediately surrounded him.

"How do you sell this wine?"

"yes, how much stock?"

Qin Tian was not in a hurry in the face of these people's inquiries, and said: "There is a lot of inventory, but I don't dare to sell it, because I can't sell wine without a license from the imperial court." ”

"It's just a license, what's so difficult about this, we can just help you get it, and you have sold it to the prince, what's the problem with selling it to us?"

Qin Tiandao: "If you have a license, you can sell it in Xia, but this wine is made of grain, but there is not much grain in Xiafu, and it is not easy to brew it after it is sold, and now the food on the market is very expensive, and I can't afford to buy it in Xia, so this wine will be sold less, so although I can sell it in Xia, I don't want to sell it much, I still want to keep it and drink it." ”

Everyone is not stupid, when they heard someone say about food in King Qin's mansion, they naturally quickly understood what was going on, they didn't expect King Qin's routine to be so deep.

In order to buy food from them, they went around in such a big circle.

Everyone looked at each other, and for a moment they were a little hesitant what to do next.

Seeing them like this, Qin Tian shook his head with a smile and turned around to leave.

But at this time, there was a person who finally couldn't help it and asked, "Then why are you willing to sell?" ”

Qin Tiandao: "It's simple, as long as I can continue to have grain to make wine, I want to use the wine in the early stage to exchange it for grain, that is to say, I can only exchange grain for beer, and money can't buy it." ”

The exchange of grain for commodities was still very popular in the Zhou period, and the ancients traded in exchange for goods, and later with money, this trade method was slowly replaced.

They didn't expect Qin Tian to use such an ancient method.

"Oh, I wonder how much grain can be exchanged for a jar of beer?"

They have a lot of food at home, and if the price is right, they don't mind exchanging it for food, after all, in their opinion, a few jars of wine are just how much food can cost them?

With this bit of grain, it is unlikely that Li Shimin will solve the problem of grain and grass.

Qin Tiandao: "My jar of beer is about five or six catties, and to brew five or six catties of beer, the cost of food and labor required is not low, so if you change an altar, you need twenty stones of grain." ”

Speaking of this, Qin Tian added: "There is inventory, but it is not much, if you want it, you have to hurry, otherwise the price increase will be a trivial matter later, and it is a big deal if you can't buy it." ”

Everyone originally heard that a jar of wine costs twenty stone of grain, and they couldn't help but feel a little distressed, this price is about the same as the price of good wine in the Western Regions.

That wine was transported from the Western Regions, and it was very scarce, and the price was more expensive, this beer was brewed by Qin Tian himself, why was it so expensive?

But as soon as they heard that there was not much stock, and that it was too late, these people immediately moved their minds again, and to be honest, they drank this beer more comfortably than wine, and if they bought it at the same price, they still preferred beer.

Isn't it just twenty stone of grain, and none of them can take it out?

"Okay, I'll ask for ten altars first."

"I'll ask for ten altars first."

“…………”

Many princes and nobles, families have said that they want ten altars, ten jars of wine is 200 stones, there are ten families wanting, that is, 2,000 stone grain, today there are almost 20 families, they are the least ten altars.

In this way, in the end, Qin Tian could exchange a few hundred jars of wine for thousands of stone grains.

A few thousand stones of grain doesn't seem like much, but don't forget that ten jars of beer may be drunk in a few days for these big families, and there are many rich and noble families in Chang'an City, but I don't know about the twenty or so families who came today.

As long as the beer has obtained the right to sell, he is sure that there will be no shortage of people who come to buy, and here today, in fact, it is just for publicity.

In this way, it is easy for him to get 10,000 stones of grain.

With these tens of thousands of stones, Li Shimin's problem can almost be solved.

Li Shimin watched Qin Tian doing business with these powerful families, and couldn't help but wonder again, how could it be so easy for Qin Tian to get here?

He couldn't get food from the family clan even if he wanted to break his head before, but Qin Tian was good, so he directly got a few thousand stones.

The banquet in front continued, and here in the backyard, the eldest grandson and the princess sat with the wife of a powerful family chatting and playing.

These ladies of the family are all from famous families, and many of them are daughters of five surnames, and they are very noble.

Because of this, they are very disdainful of the daughter of a small household like Tang Rong and the wife of a loose official, and after everyone sat down, no one paid attention to Tang Rong at all.

Tang Rong sat here, very embarrassed.

It was the eldest grandson, the princess, who knew that whether today's matter could succeed or not depended on Qin Tian, so after three rounds of drinking, she called Tang Rong to sit next to her, and had a good conversation with Tang Rong.

Those aristocratic ladies were shocked to see that the eldest grandson princess was so good to Tang Rong, they didn't understand, how could a small loose official's wife be liked by the eldest grandson princess?

They were a little jealous, but at this time, the eyes that looked at Tang Rong were no longer the disdain they had before.

The banquet in the backyard continued, but halfway through, the eldest princess suddenly frowned slightly, feeling unwell, so after saying something to everyone, she got up and rushed to the bedroom.

Tang Rong didn't understand it at first, thinking that the eldest grandson and princess were uncomfortable, so she hurriedly followed, and after following like this, she found out that it was the princess's menstrual affair.

Although the eldest grandson princess has a noble status, she is no better than other women in solving this kind of thing, but the cloth used is cleaner, and the grass and wood ash are actually indispensable.

Seeing this, Tang Rong hurriedly took out an aunt's towel from her sleeve.

"Princess, try this."

The eldest grandson princess didn't expect Tang Rong to follow, she was a little embarrassed and embarrassed after being discovered, and after seeing Tang Rong take out a palm-sized thing, she felt even more embarrassed, and even faintly angry, she had never seen such a blind person.

However, she was also very curious about what Tang Rong was taking, so she tried it according to what Tang Rong said.

After trying it like this, I felt a lot more comfortable.

"It's so good to use, where did you buy it?"
