Chapter 18 Buying and selling is targeted

Two and a half days later, that is, on the seventh night after Lin Chong came to this world. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Lin Chong, who originally wanted to delay for another day, finally couldn't bear the expectation of activating the system quickly, and took Huan Yi to visit Liu Weixiong, a fat man, and presented a song of Su Dongpo's "Song of the Cave Immortals, Ice Muscle and Jade Bone", and danced with the happy hands, and immediately rewarded the pen fee of three hundred taels of silver.

Three hundred taels of silver is six hundred guan, plus the two hundred and ninety guan that Lu Jiang earned from selling flower water, that is, eight hundred and ninety guan, plus the money worth three hundred and eighty guan given by Liu Weixiong before, minus the cost of making flower dew water, Lin Chong felt that the money he earned must be more than one thousand guan.

So after returning home, Lin Chong opened the system interface in his mind with great excitement and anticipation, and clicked the activation button.

In the end, the result was still too young, too simple, and the system did not respond at all, only a lone line of text.

"Ask the host to provide a thousand pieces of copper, or gold, or silver."

Lin Chong was stunned for a moment, isn't it enough to earn a thousand yuan, but also to let the system see the money?

So Lin Chong immediately took out all the four hundred and forty-five taels of silver in the house, as well as the two hundred and fifty yuan bills, placed them on the small table, and clicked the activation button again.

However, it was still not activated, but the system was quite smart, and the words appeared again: "This system only accepts gold, silver, copper coins, or banknotes with a guarantee of credibility such as RMB, and does not accept banknotes."

Ask the host to provide a thousand pieces of copper, or gold, or silver. ”

Lin Chong reacted at this time, the emotional system needs to be activated by taking away a thousand yuan.

, good wisdom (pit) can (dad) system!

When he thought of this, Lin Chong felt unspeakably distressed, Nima, this is Lao Tzu's hard-earned money, you can buy a lot of things, and you can spend a lot of money on white flowers when you see a hero.

In the original Water Margin story, Song Jiang only spent ten taels of silver to buy a Wu Song, but Lao Tzu's thousand yuan can collect fifty Wu Song, saying that he was taken away by the system?

However, Lin Chong had to do it, otherwise when the time came, he would become a fool.

So Lin Chong, who was helpless, could only wait for another day, and then ask Lu Jiang to find the tooth man tomorrow and ask him to take fifteen bottles of toilet water to sell first.

The next day, a tooth man named Wei Tong carried a small wooden box on his back and wore a Fan Yang hat on his head, and quietly entered the Han Champs.

"Brother Wei, you're here!"

When he raised his head, the shopkeeper recognized him at a glance, and immediately led him to the back with bright eyes, and then said with irrepressible excitement: "Do you know that I am waiting for your goods to go crazy." ”

Because of Lin Chong's momentum, and the fact that the three bottles of flower water were sold to three rich ladies, in just a few days, this flower water spread almost all over the circle of noble ladies and ladies in Bianjing City.

You can think about this picture: when a group of Qinglou Oiran or famous ladies get together to chat, one of them is not only full of fragrant fragrance and smells very good, but others feel that she is cool and sweat-free, so she will naturally become the focus of the audience.

Then when this person takes out the bottle of toilet water, tries it on the sisters close to them, and when they experience the magical effect of the toilet water, that kind of envy, comparison, and crazy pursuit are inevitable.

So in the past few days, countless noble ladies and celebrities have found the Champs, and they want to spend a lot of money to buy a bottle of toilet water, but there is a total of one bottle of the Champs, and finally it was bought by the wife of the little princess Cai You at a high price of 600 yuan.

Speaking of which, this price is ridiculously high, enough for a medium-sized family to live for twenty-four years, but in the eyes of these noble ladies and celebrities, it is not enough money for a dish.

So the other ladies refused to accept it, and you can afford it? They all said that they were willing to pay 600 yuan to buy a bottle.

The shopkeeper was overjoyed, but he didn't have so much toilet water.

Wei Tong said with a sad face: "Shopkeeper Sun, this flower dew water is an overseas foreign thing, it is said to be something used by the Great Cannibal Emperor Caliphate, it is extremely difficult to come to our Great Song Dynasty, and I have just gotten the second batch of goods." ”

Speaking of which, this was Lin Chong's casual foolishness, but Wei Tong and Shopkeeper Sun were all convinced, and they were also crooked, it turned out that Da Shi really paid tribute to Hou Zhou and Da Song several times with a perfume called rose water.

The Southern Tang Dynasty poet Zhang Mi wrote in his "Makeup Building: Rose Water": "In the fifth year of Zhou Xiande, Kunlun Kingdom offered fifteen bottles of rose water, and the clouds came from the Western Regions. ”

Cai Jing's favorite fourth son, Cai Xuan, also recorded in the fifth volume of "Tiewei Mountain Cong Talk": "The old saying is that rose water is the dew on the roses picked by foreign countries, otherwise, the practical platinum is the retort, and the steam of the rose flowers is steam into water, and it is repeatedly steamed and accumulated into incense...... Therefore, although the rose water of the great food country is stored in the glazed thread, the wax seals it outside, but the fragrance is still thoroughly smelled dozens of steps, sprinkled with people's clothes, and it does not stop for more than ten days. ”

(Historically, "Tiewei Mountain Cong Tan" was a note made by Cai Qian when he was exiled to Baizhou after the fall of Cai Jing, so this moment must not have been written yet, but it can prove the existence and magical effect of rose water.) )

And "Song Hui Wants to Compile Manuscripts: Fan Yi" and "Song History: Foreign" also have many records of rose water paying tribute, so Wei Tong's rhetoric, Shopkeeper Sun is naturally convinced.

Shopkeeper Sun also said the same when he took it out to sell, and the noble lady who bought it was also convinced, thinking that it was worth it to buy the tribute for the Great Food Palace for six hundred yuan.

However, she did not suffer a loss, because if there was really a bottle of rose water in front of her, she would find that in fact, the flower water she bought was dozens of times better than the rose water that the Great Food Kingdom paid tribute to the Great Song Emperor.

The reason is simple, this is one of the advantages of the traverser, because Lin Chong's process is more advanced, because Lin Chong uses alcohol.

Speaking of which, the Great Cannibal also uses the distillation method, and the water condensed by collecting water vapor becomes rose water, but the Great Cannibal does not use alcohol, because almost all essential oils are not very soluble in water, and the volatility is not good;

The solubility of alcohol to essential oils is very strong, and the volatility of alcohol is very good, so that once the two are combined, essential oils and other fragrances are fully dissolved in alcohol, and then with the help of the volatile volatilization of alcohol, the result is that the effect of perfume is magnified tens of thousands of times.

Therefore, even if the essential oil content of rose water is dozens or hundreds of times higher than Lin Chong's flower water, the fragrance is actually far less than Lin Chong's flower water, not to mention that Lin Chong's flower water also has the effect of cooling and repelling mosquitoes.

Even this toilet water is even better than that of later generations, because although the craftsmanship is not as good as that of later generations, it uses more and better materials, and adds more essential oils for flowers.

Sure enough, Shopkeeper Sun immediately nodded in agreement and asked, "Yes, yes, how many goods did Brother Wei bring this time?" ”

Wei Tong said lightly: "Shopkeeper Sun, let's talk about the price first." ”

Shopkeeper Sun's face changed suddenly, and his voice also changed: "Isn't it a hundred per bottle?" ”

Wei Tong said with a smile: "Everyone is Bianliangzi, don't tell lies in front of real people, how hot the flower water is now, how many noble girls are willing to pay 600 yuan to buy a bottle of flower water, I don't know?" ”

Shopkeeper Sun's face was ugly like frosted eggplant, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Then how much do you want to sell?" ”

"Five hundred yuan a bottle, only gold or silver is accepted, I have fifteen bottles here, if the shopkeeper Sun can't eat it, I can take it to another house to sell."

Wei Tong was so happy in his heart, the guarantee of two taels of silver plus the profit of the selling price of one cent, every time he sold a bottle, he would make a net profit of four taels or five dollars of silver, and fifteen bottles were sixty-seven taels of silver, and he could earn so much by just walking around, it was simply a treasure from the sky for himself to pick up.

"I can eat, I can eat, but Brother Wei doesn't accept money and only needs gold and silver, but he has to wait for us to go to the gold and silver shop to exchange the gold."

Shopkeeper Sun's eyes were shining, and he hurriedly rushed to say, thinking that it was better to make less money than not to make any money, and he could sell it for seven hundred, or even eight hundred yuan a bottle.

So Wei Tong drank a cup of tea in the Han Champs, and after waiting for less than a moment, the shopkeeper Sun came in with seven hundred and fifty taels of gold.

The two sides inspected each other's goods, the inventory was correct, and the transaction was completed, Wei Tong nervously walked out of the rouge shop from the back door with a small wooden box containing gold.

Nima, can you not be nervous, seven hundred and fifty taels of gold, that is, seven thousand five hundred yuan, I have never held so much money, and if I am robbed, I can't afford to lose myself and my wife if I sell it.

I don't know if I'm too nervous or what, anyway, as soon as I go out, Wei Tong feels like there is always a pair of eyes staring at him, but every time I look around and I can't see anyone, Wei Tong feels that his heart is about to jump to his throat.

Just when Wei Tong's heart was beating faster and faster, and then he really found two people sneaking around with him when he turned back suddenly, Wei Tong felt that his heart was about to fly out.

was discovered, and the two of them simply followed blatantly from afar, but they made Wei Tong nervous.

He could see that these two people were tall, and one of them was still wearing a military jacket and pants, and he knew that the two of them must be good hands in the forbidden army, and it must be a powerful boss who took a fancy to the door of the "Great Food Country Tribute Flower Dew Water" in his hand, so he sent his soldiers to squat here day and night.

Thinking of the strict advice of the student, Wei Tong was a little confused, he thought for a while, and then ran away, as long as he arrived at the place, there would naturally be two good brothers to answer, as long as he didn't let the other party see the student, his task would be completed.

As a result, as soon as he ran, the two of them also ran, but Wei Tong was holding seven hundred and fifty taels of gold in his arms, almost half a person in weight, and his mood was too nervous, he didn't run long and he was a little out of breath, but the other party ran closer and closer.

Wei Tong ran forward desperately, and was about to run through this alley, when a tall man wearing a Fan Yang hat scarf to cover his face appeared in front of him. Wei Tong screamed bitterly in his heart, his nervous heartbeat was like thunder, and the sweat all over his body came out at once.
