Early October 19th. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Wangjia Salt Shop hung up the price sign of 250 Wen a catty early, and when they saw this scene, the people who were originally going to go to Bai's house to buy salt turned around and went to Wang's house to buy salt. Why don't you buy a good one for the same price?

At this moment, Master Bai was celebrating with his salt merchants.

"Haha, the Wang family's salt shop is estimated to be closed today, and yesterday I heard from the guy in the store that there is not much stock in the warehouse."

"That's all the good of Master Bai's leadership!"

"That's it, such a stinky kid actually wants to fight with us, isn't he looking for death?"

……

When everyone was celebrating the victory, a member of the Bai Mansion came in from outside the door and whispered in the ear of Master Bai: "Master, the Wang family has also reduced the salt to 250 Wen a catty." ”

Master Wang's face changed slightly, and after a sigh, he said, "Everyone, be quiet!" ”

The noisy people in the hall instantly quieted down when they heard Master Bai's words, looking at Master Bai.

"Ladies and gentlemen, someone just told me that the Wang family has also lowered the price of salt to 250 wen a catty, what should we do next?"

This is a middle-aged man dressed as a scribe stood up and said: "Look down, if we reduce the price again, I don't believe that a man who has just come from the mountains can still have our capital, and we can consume him alive." ”

This person's words have been affirmed by most of the salt merchants, who have been entrenched in the Yellow Plains for decades, and they are very confident in their own capital.

"Okay, then let's continue to reduce the price, first reduce it to 200 Wen a catty, and see the reaction of the Wang family."

……

Soon, someone hired by the Bai family stood outside the Wang family's salt shop and shouted: "Fathers and fellow villagers, the Bai family's salt has dropped to 200 wen a catty, everyone go buy it!" ”

As soon as he said this, many poor people in tattered clothes turned around and prepared to walk towards the Bai family's salt shop, in their eyes, it was good to be able to buy salt to eat, but they didn't care about the quality of salt. But there are still some people from better families who stay in the Wang family shop and continue to queue up, for them, eating salt is no longer a problem, so eating well is their purpose.

"Everyone, wait a minute, don't go yet!"

Just as the poor people were about to go out, Li Yu shouted in the store.

At this time, the people invited by the Bai family coaxed: "What? People want to go to Bai's house to buy cheap salt, and you won't let you go. ”

"Of course not, buying and selling is voluntary, how can there be such a thing as forced buying and selling. What I want to say is that from now on, our family's salt will be sold for 150 wen a catty! ”

As soon as they heard this, those who were originally going to go to the Bai family to buy salt continued to line up at the door of the Wang's house. Seeing this, those who were invited by the Bai family to make a fuss ran back to the Bai family and reported the situation to the salt merchants who were waiting for the good news in the living room.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Wang family has lowered the price even lower than ours, do you say that it will be lowered?" The scribe stood up again and said.

"Drop!" Without waiting for the salt merchants in the hall to speak, Master Bai spoke: "If we drop to 100 Wen, I don't believe that the Wang family can still descend." But as soon as he said this, Master Bai saw that someone in the hall frowned, and Master Bai hurriedly said: "You don't have to be nervous, wait until this matter is over, and within three years, your share of money will be less than 30%!" ”

At this moment, the faces of everyone in the hall were better, and the three years of paying less than three percent were barely enough for their own losses, coupled with the prestige of Master Bai, everyone accepted this decision.

Unexpectedly, an hour later, another servant came to report in the living room of Baifu.

"Report to all the masters, the Wang family has reduced the price of salt to 30 wen a catty!"

At this moment, there was no sound in the hall, and no one spoke first, and they all focused their eyes on Master Bai. I saw Master Bai say: "Everyone, the Wang family has lowered the price to this point, will we still lower it?" "Master Bai asks for the opinions of others, it doesn't matter to him that the price of salt drops, after all, he collects money, but the salt merchants in the hall are different, after they get the salt from the back door of Master Bai, they have to go to the salt factory to buy goods, so whether the price of salt drops or not has to pay attention to the attention of their salt merchants.

"Drop! We can't let a fledgling kid defeat us, so how can we mess around in the Yellow Plains in the future? The middle-aged man dressed as a scribe said. He has always been the second largest salt merchant under the Bai family, and he has always been pressed by others before, but after the fat salt merchant was abandoned by the Bai family last time, he had a careful thought. After all, the amount of salt is fixed, and now that person is abandoned, his share is vacant, and this middle-aged man wants to eat this share and then live under the Bai family's biggest salt merchant, so he is now showing himself ruthlessly in front of the Bai family.

"I'm sorry, I can't continue to fight in the next family." This is said by a middle-aged man with a full beard.

"Yes, our Huangyuan is located inland, we have to transport salt from the salt field, along the way not only by water but also by land, plus the dots and checkpoints along the way, the cost of a pound of salt alone is not only 400 Wen, and now we have reduced the salt so low, this time all of us are going to lose everything. So Master Bai is not not not accompanying everyone, but there is really no way. A tall, thin, shrewd man said.

As soon as this person's words came out, the whole hall resounded with approval. In fact, everyone was unwilling to continue to fight with the Bai family, but they had to do it because of the prestige and power of the Bai family.

Seeing that the general trend had gone, Master Bai didn't speak, but just lowered his head and waved his hand to signal everyone to go out. After the salt merchants in the living room were gone, Master Bai angrily threw the teacup on the table to the ground with a 'snap', and said with a pant: "What a Wang Yue, this time my Bai family lost, but I won't let you have a good time!" ”

It is said that at this moment, Wang Yue did not take the battle with the Bai family to heart at all, and at this moment he was walking with Gong Yue in the garden.

"Lady, I'll show you something good." Wang Yue said mysteriously to Gong Yue.

Gong Yue saw Wang Yue put his left hand behind him, thinking that Wang Yue was going to give him something, and then suddenly wanted to run behind Wang Yue, wanting to see what was hidden behind Wang Yue.

Seeing Gong Yue running towards him, Wang Yue deliberately dodged backwards and then suddenly stepped forward and held Gong Yue in his arms. How did Gong Yue, a fourteen-year-old girl, break free from Wang Yue's arms as an adult man, so she had to let Wang Yue hold her.

"Lady, close your eyes." Wang Yue leaned on Gong Yue's ear and said softly.

When Gong Yue closed her eyes, Wang Yue secretly hung the diamond necklace she bought on Gong Yue's neck, and then said, "Okay, lady, you can open your eyes." ”

Gong Yue felt that Wang Yue was hanging something on his neck when he closed his eyes, so the first thing he did when he opened his eyes was to see what Yue was hanging on his neck, but just this look Gong Yue was attracted by the brilliance of diamonds. Isn't there such a saying, women like dragons like shiny things?

But this is not over, Wang Yue took out Gong Yue's left hand, brought the diamond ring to Gong Yue's ring finger and said: "Lady, from today onwards we will have and support each other, whether it is good or bad, rich or poor, sick or healthy, we will love and cherish each other, until death can separate us." ”

Hearing Wang Yue's words, Gong Yue was moved to tears. In this feudal era, the status of women is low, and no one will ever say such a thing to their wives.

Wang Yue was also surprised at this moment, he didn't expect that such an ordinary love story in modern times would have such a big impact on Gong Yue.
