159 The first floor of the world
The ninth day of June in the second year of Zhongping in the Han Dynasty.
Early in the morning, the forbidden army tightly surrounded the three layers of the streets of Xishi.
On the day when the first floor of Dahan was opened, the scorching sun did not extinguish the enthusiasm of the people of Luoyang City, and people rushed to the street, bustling outside the encirclement of the forbidden army.
In the past few days, many officials and scholars in various parts of the Han Dynasty have complained about Luan Yi's establishment of this building and inducing Emperor Ling to run a businessman, and even scolded Luan Yi for confusing His Majesty and being a traitor who slandered and betrayed his glory. The cries of opposition are loud and uncontrollable.
Fortunately, at this time, Yuan Kui came forward at the right time to appease the grievances of the disciples in the court. On Taixue's side, Cai Yong spoke again and pressed the scholar's complaint. With these two points to be clear, coupled with Luan Yi's own influence, the abuse of this matter gradually subsided.
Locally, Luan Yi used the Church of Our Lady to mobilize divine servants to persuade the people in the name of Our Lady. When believers heard that it was the will of Our Lady to build the first floor of the world, they did not dare to judge it again.
As a result, the people of the world acquiesced to the existence of the first floor of the world. And on the day of the opening of the door, they gathered outside the first floor, looking forward to the moment of entering the building to watch.
At three o'clock, Luan Yi, dressed in new clothes, walked out of the building and stood on the street waiting.
At four o'clock, the gongs and drums sounded in unison, and the people followed the prestige, and suddenly saw a yellow flag coming straight to their side, and the five-clawed golden dragon embroidered on the yellow flag was both solemn and mighty. "Your Majesty is here!"
The people on the street were suddenly startled, hula lala and fell to their knees!
Emperor Ling's face was happy, and Zhang Rang helped him to walk down Luan, standing in front of the main gate of the first floor of the world, pinching his waist and looking around at the tens of thousands of onlookers around him. "Flat!"
"Long live my emperor, long live!"
Zhang Rang was very dissatisfied with so many onlookers, and complained about Luan Yi, "Luan Ziqi, how did you get it!" There are so many people outside, in case some of them have bad intentions, how can they assassinate His Majesty! ”
Luan Yi smiled, "There are a lot of onlookers, but those onlookers who are close to the forbidden army are not outsiders, but believers who have been screened out of the church by Yi, and they are all reliable people, and they will never have bad intentions." Those in the outer circle are ordinary people. Your Majesty's Constant Attendant is reassured. Lo and behold, they all have the Virginian cross pinned to their chests! ”
Emperor Ling looked fixedly, and they were really all members of the Holy Mother's Sect. He nodded approvingly, "Aiqing has a heart!" ”
Luan Yi suggested: "Then Your Majesty, let's start!" ”
"Good!"
The drumbeat of "Knock Knock Knock...... resounded through the sky, extinguishing the noisy chatter of the crowd.
Luan Yi cleared his throat, "At four o'clock on the ninth day of June in the second year of Zhongping of the Han Dynasty, the auspicious time for the unveiling of the first floor of the Han Dynasty has arrived, please ask His Majesty the Emperor of the Han Dynasty to unveil the first floor of the Han Dynasty with a speech!" ”
Emperor Ling looked decent, with a dignified posture, took out the words that Luan Yi had written for him early in the morning from his sleeve, and read them aloud. The content is nothing more than his Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong's sense of heaven and earth, and he has always adhered to the concept of governing the country by the ancestors and the ancestors, one is to highlight the national strength of the great country, the second is to facilitate the people to buy, and the third is to enjoy with the people. Yunyun ......
I have to say that Emperor Ling's voice is quite feminine, and the opening speech is very clear, and it won extremely warm applause after the end.
In the cheers, the Spirit Emperor became more and more complacent, his laughing eyelids couldn't be raised, and his pupils were tightly covered. He took the unveiling silk cloth from Luan Yi's hand, and pulled it casually, and the curtain covering the plaque on the third floor swung open, revealing a signboard with gold characters on a low black background - the first floor of the world.
Under the deliberate instigation of the Holy Mother, the applause arrived at this time, and the excited Spirit Emperor was full of red light, eager to rush to the building to become the first guest of the building.
It's a pity that because of his status as an emperor, he can't have this opportunity to get in close contact with civilians. Under the persuasion of Luan Yi and Zhang Rang, he reluctantly sat back in Luan and hurriedly returned to the palace.
As soon as the emperor left and the forbidden army left, the tense and oppressive air was swept away, and the onlookers flocked to the building.
Look at the east, there are rows of neat counters, and there are brand-new large urns on the counter, which contain all kinds of fresh vegetables and grains; Looking west, there are still rows of neat counters, but what is sold here is not grain and vegetables, but melons, fruits, pastries and snacks.
Walking up the stairs, to the second floor, it was another scene, rows of ready-to-wear clothes were placed on hangers in the corners, and hats were placed in the partition above the hangers. Underneath the hanger, there are also a variety of shoes.
On the first floor, on the third floor, it was a different story. Wooden items such as wooden combs, folding fans, and bamboo chopsticks are placed in the cabinets that enter the door, and in the cabinets in the depths are gold and silver jewelry, and of course, glass mirrors. The side cabinet is equipped with various colored glazed utensils, such as glazed statues, glazed bowls, and glazed carvings.
Curious people look here and there in the building, everything they see is fresh, and everything they see is enjoyable. Calling such a building is only available to powerful countries such as Dahan. A strong sense of national pride arises spontaneously, accompanied by a strong purchase**.
On the first day of opening of the first floor of Dahan, the profit was nearly 10,000.
Emperor Ling didn't sleep well all night when he heard this news, and he changed three concubines in a row to stay up until the next morning, but he heard Zhang Rang sneering: "Less than 10,000 guan a day, 365 days a year, that is, less than 3.65 million guan, according to 100,000 guan is equal to 10,000 taels of silver, Ye Jushi is 365,000 taels of silver." Let's see how he Luan Ziqi fulfilled his previous promise of one million silver! ”
Pity this one, who thinks he is smart and has never done business, how can he know that Luan Yi will definitely have a way to complete it if he dares to make a promise. Even if you can't sell tens of millions of silver goods. The account is in his hands, and it is easy to change the profit into a million taels of silver, and if he only earns 365,000 at the end of the year, he will post some money and pay 500,000 to the Spirit Emperor.
He can afford to pay for a mere hundred thousand silver.
Of course, this is the worst-case scenario. However, such a result is not in Luan Yi's plan, because he already has a big plan to make a lot of money in his heart, a plan to use monopoly to make huge profits.
Therefore, on the second day of the opening of the first floor of Dahan, he ordered the account office in the building to write letters to wealthy businessmen from all over Dahan, inviting them to arrive in Luoyang, Kyoto before the first day of October, and on the morning of October 1, he went to Luoyang Qifeng Pavilion on time to participate in the bidding meeting of the Luanjia Chamber of Commerce.
Although businessmen from all over the world don't know what the bidding conference is, they rely on the influence of the Luanjia Chamber of Commerce in Dahan in the past ten years, as well as the huge profits of its unique glaze, Shencai wine, movable type printed books and other goods. On October 1st, a large number of merchants gathered in Luoyang and waited in the lobby of Qifeng Pavilion in the morning.
At the end of the hour, Luan Yi, who had bathed and changed clothes, came out of the inner room, glanced around at the people present, and sure enough, he found the familiar figure. Through the robe dressed as a man, it can be seen that she is taller, more charming, and more beautiful, counting that she is the same age as herself, and she should be married after the age of twenty-eight, right?
When she looked at her, Luan Yi saw that the person who had always lingered in her heart moved her gaze to herself, and her heartbeat couldn't help but speed up a little, and she forced a calm smile at her.
She smiled too, and that smile was really sweet, like a piece of honey.
"There are beautiful women in the north, peerless and independent, who look at the city and the country." Somehow, "Hanshu? Relatives passed on the song "? Mrs. Xiaowu Li suddenly poured out of Luan Yi's mind.
Luan Yi instinctively lowered his head, not daring to look at a blooming lotus flower, the Roselle of the world. He coughed lightly and bowed his hand to everyone, "Many of you here have seen me, and many of you have not. Here, I will first introduce myself, in Xia Luan Yi Luan Ziqi, meet all the seniors! ”
Xuzhou Mi family sent Mi Zhu to participate in the meeting in person this time, Xuzhou Jinan is not far away, Mi Zhu has been to Jinan many times, and Luan Yi has a good personal relationship. Mi Zhu shook the ground and said, "Master Young Master has been waiting for me to kill me." Jun is an official of the imperial court, how can we let the young master make such a big gift to us. ”
"Zizhong is very right." A middle-aged man stood up and said, "In Xiayangzhou, it is an honor to visit Lu Jiu for the first time. ”
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be!" Luan Yi returned the gift again and again.
After getting to know each other with everyone present, Luan Yi gradually understood that the businessmen attending the meeting today are mainly from Ji, You, And, Qing, Xu, Yan, Yang, Liang, and Luoyang, but there are no people from Jiaozhou and Yizhou, which must be related to the long distance. Some of the states came with seven or eight merchants, representing their own merchants, and some of them had two or three people, and the number varied. Among them, especially in wealthy places such as Jizhou, Xuzhou, and Luoyang, merchants are the most dense.
Luan Yi had a plan in his heart and said, "Everyone be quiet. If you dare to ask, you can understand the content of the letter sent to you. ”
"To be honest, I didn't understand it! I hope the young master will explain! It was Zhen Mi who spoke. Although she made her voice thicker a lot in order to pretend to be a man, the sound of her unique voice was still like heaven.
"Where do you not understand?"
Zhen Mi somehow, when Luan Yi looked directly at him, his pretty face turned red again, and said: "The letter said that I asked the Zhen Family Chamber of Commerce to come here today to participate in the bidding meeting and discuss the matter of bidding monopoly authority." Dare to ask, what is bidding and what is monopoly? ”
"Yizheng wants to explain this!" Luan Yi smiled, organized the language, and said, "First of all, what is a monopoly?" The word monopoly may be difficult to understand, so we might as well call it an exclusive agent in another way. The so-called exclusive agency refers to the exclusive right to purchase and sell designated goods in a designated area and within a certain period of time. The sole agent shall carry out the relevant business activities on behalf of the principal alone, and the principal shall not appoint a second agent in the territory. Take Liuli as an example, for example, A is the exclusive agent of Luoyang City of Luanjia Chamber of Commerce, so from now on, Liulifang will only have one seller in Luoyang City, and in addition, any Luoyang merchant will never buy a piece of Liuli from Luanjia Chamber of Commerce, and he can only buy Jia's if he wants to buy it. See what that means?
A bright light flashed in front of everyone's eyes.
