Text Chapter 403 Tianmu Mountain King Chengye
"It's the same everywhere, those children are like crazy, and the adults in the family can't stop them!" Shopkeeper Luo shook his head and sighed.
"In this way, you can ask me where there is a good quality and texture of the inkstone, if I am satisfied, I will buy it all, and you can consider leaving some rice paper and ten-color notes, and give a certain monopoly right!"
Li Zhi's words made Shopkeeper Luo overjoyed, and he hurriedly opened his hand and beckoned a guy, "Hurry up and invite the owner, remember not to reveal a word about the store!" ”
After the order, he turned around and looked at Li Zhi: "Mr. Li, in the entire Wuyuan County, our family has the most complete pure Yan, but there are only a few furnishings here, and people who know how to do it will only go to Tianmu Mountain Mansion to choose." Why don't we wait for our host to come, and let him personally lead the two of us? ”
Sun Simiao continued, "The owner said in addition, Mr. Li means to let you find some in the county, maybe in the future, Zhengqing Wenqitang will cooperate with Wang Dongjia, but this time it is used as a private collection, as long as the quality is excellent, it is best to be that kind of ancestral thing, including Tao Yan and Duan Yan!" ”
"Therefore, the place is the origin of the inkstone, the inkstone collection is extremely popular, I do know a few people in this regard, they have some good things in their hands, that is, Tao inkstone, Duan inkstone is also available, but they are willing to sell, not I can say that I can move!" Shopkeeper Luo reminded.
Sun Simiao waved his hand, "You just go to the door to make an appointment, in the name of your Wang Dongjia, by the way, go to the county government to mention the arrival of Mr. Li, he has just been given the title of Yipin Zhongyi King, in his name, quickly inform the Yan official in Huizhou, and rush to Tianmu Mountain before tomorrow evening!" ”
Shopkeeper Luo was shocked, and he was busy bending over to kneel, the first-class prince was a big man at the core level of the imperial court, a person who often dealt with the emperor, and was extremely noble.
Li Zhi raised his hand and an invisible force held up the man, and said in his mouth: "Just prepare some refreshments for the two of me in the outer courtyard, and we will wait for you there!" ”
Tea and dim sum are sold in the shop next to them, knowing Li Zhi's true identity, Shopkeeper Luo didn't dare to slack off a little, and at the same time as the refreshments were placed, the top wine and food nearby were also delivered.
I haven't had a good meal for two days and two nights, and Li Zhi and the others are not polite, and they don't wait for the shopkeeper Luo to leave, so they eat a lot.
Half an hour later, Wang Chengye came in a hurry, and when he heard that Ma Ye from Chang'an City, he had already guessed who it was.
Through whispered communication, Sun Simiao's identity was verified, and this sturdy man who still looked like he was in his thirties had tears in his eyes.
Sun Simiao was also a little excited, but he couldn't help it, and when he saw this, he was busy with his eyes, after all, there were many people around who were watching.
Before he came, there was already an old man surnamed Meng who came, who was an old friend of Wang Chengye and a qualified collector, so he would be the first to appear.
Of course, Li Zhi's arrival is also another major reason, even if the first-class loyalty king has not yet been handed down here, the Shang Fang sword in his hand has been circulated among the people for a long time.
"Cousin Huai, can you meet Mr. Li's request? I know you have a few good things! ”
Understanding Li Zhi's plan, Wang Chengye looked at Meng Huaitang, and the old man replied: "Before you came, I sent someone back to get it, Mr. Li just likes all my net worth, and he also wants to be satisfied, not to mention a few things outside the body!" ”
Li Zhi raised the wine glass in his hand and thanked him: "I won't lose Meng Lao, and after the items are paid according to the price, there will be a few knives of rice paper to give." This is only the beginning of our cooperation, in the future, Meng Lao will find me Li Zhengwen for any matter, and I will do my best to help! ”
Meng Huaitang is also a businessman similar to Wang Chengye, and he looks respectful when he sees the county yamen on weekdays, not to mention Li Zhi, who has a great identity.
"To be able to sit at the same table with Mr. Li is the infinite glory of the people, Mr. dare not mention the matter of cooperation, let alone the matter of silver!"
Li Zhi has a good impression of this person, although his words are full of respect, but he does not have much intention of admitting himself to be inferior, his attitude is upright, neither humble nor arrogant, and he is obviously a figure who has seen the world.
"Meng Lao don't mention the word "people" in front of me, my identity will also be used in Chang'an City. This time I came to travel with Ma Ye as a private person, and I was looking for some things needed in the palace by the way, just to be entrusted by someone, and the silver I needed was not from me, so Meng Lao didn't have to refuse. ”
After that, Li Zhi looked at Wang Chengye, "Mr. Wang has related industries under his name, Zhengqing Wenqitang plans to operate a pen, ink, paper and inkstone business, I heard that your inkstone craft is an ancestral inheritance, but there is a desire to develop in Chang'an City!" ”
Wang Chengye is also a cool person, and has a relationship with Sun Simiao, and he has little awe of Li Zhi, so he laughed and said: "This is a great good thing, where can I have no ideas?" I don't dare to talk about other objects, but only from the production of Sheyan, Zhun Bao to Mr. Li to provide the best grade of things, and regardless of the texture and technology, Wuyuan and Shexian two places, in my hands to grasp the stone old pit mouth, to ensure that each inkstone has the star eye pattern on the stone, the ink effect, the natural decoration of the inkstone must be the top. ”
"Oh, this is the old man to tell me, the best inkstone is judged by the color of the star eye on the stone?"
"But that's not all, it's just as important to get the ink. The best inkstone grinding, need to achieve astringency without leaving a pen, slippery without rejecting ink, melon skin and texture, golden sound and jade. According to the natural pattern of the stone and the eyebrows, ribs, Venus, gold halo and so on are the best, among which Venus is the inkstone, its quality is strong and beautiful, the air is full of clouds, the water is not dried up, and it is the best in the inkstone! ”
"I don't understand this, let me learn it slowly in the future! Mr. Wang, in the head, Zhengqing Wenqitang only needs the best inkstone, and you also know the price of our rice paper, such as the rice paper sold by the carrier Zhai is only the lowest grade, and the rice paper for the royal family is sky-high! ”
"Mr. Li, I understand, I have been to Zhengqing Wenqitang in person, and valuables worth tens of thousands of silver are also very common, and I know that your store specializes in luxury goods!"
"Ordinary inkstones are still needed, but when the foreign branches open, it will be a huge purchase, but it will take some time! At the moment I only want high-quality products, and preferably products with distinctive characteristics. ”
"Mr. Li rest assured, I will send a few of the highest level of inkstone workers to Chang'an City, that is, customers need to customize is also possible, in the future, the reputation of the inkstone, will be with the Zhengqing Wenqitang and from then on widely known, as the only pure origin of the entire Datang, Mr. Li is for us to make a name for ourselves, there is no reason not to actively cooperate, profit is second!"
Li Zhi shook his head and said happily: "How can it be done without profits, you don't care about these, I guarantee that a few pieces of fine inkstones will be sold, so that you can eat for a few years without doing anything!" ”
"Hahaha, that's a good feeling! However, you have come from afar, and we will talk about business matters later, so let's go to Tianmu Mountain with me first, and we will have a good talk about the old relationship, and I haven't seen Ma Ye for nearly ten years! ”
Before Wang Chengye's words fell, a large group of people in official uniforms hurriedly urged the horses to arrive, and they jumped off their horses one after another, ran forward to salute.
Just kidding, when the dignified Yipin Gong came, the local parents and officials were deeply shocked, maybe the folk news is not very well-informed, but the local government will be the first to know everything in the capital Chang'an.
The first-class loyal and righteous king, the same as Jiuqing, is also a huge inferior to the Shang Shuling and the prime minister of the dynasty, and he is a real royal power figure who goes out and opens the way with more than a dozen gongs.
Seeing each other in a mess with courtesy, Li Zhi was not embarrassed for anyone, and the good words were sent away one by one, and the collectors of Sheyan outside the original crowd appeared.
These people were still unhurried with a relaxed attitude before they came, and as early as when Li Zhi was surrounded by people in the official mansion, some people hurriedly sent people home to get the things in their hands.
What can I do if I am reluctant in my heart, since Li Zhi sent the shopkeeper Luo to their respective homes to invite, it means that people already know that there are hidden objects in their hands, and they bargain with the first-class masters? That would be death.
However, the thoughts in the hearts of others do not mean that Li Zhizhen is so unreasonable, he treats everyone who comes to him as an equal, and does not show any arrogance or hypocrisy.
