For the opening of the Nanjing shopping mall, Zheng Tai also rushed back from Nanyang. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zheng Tai served as the minister of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, but now he has not taken office for a day, and the affairs of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce have always been managed by Vice Minister Chen Li.

Now that Zheng Tai is back, it is naturally up to him to preside over it.

On the opening day, the Ministry of Industry and Commerce specially invited a famous martial arts hall from Foshan to perform the lion dance.

Zheng Tai picked up a brush and put the finishing touches on the head of the southern lion, and then loudly announced the official opening of the Nanjing shopping mall in a field of firecrackers.

As early as a month ago, the people of Jiangnan heard that there are all kinds of things in this big shopping mall in Nanjing, only what you can't think of and nothing you can't buy.

What's more important is that the goods here are of high quality and quantity, and the children are not bullied, and the people came here early today just to have a glimpse.

As soon as I walked into the market, not to mention the common people, even those businessmen who traveled from south to north, their eyes were not enough at this time.

Here, you can really buy almost anything!

Eat, watch, play......

In the past, there were only things to sell until the market, but now the rows of stores are full.

As long as you have money, you can buy it at any time.

The people of Huaxia are the best at imitating, and the iron horn used by Zheng Chenggong in the military academy was imitated at this time.

Xiao Er was using the iron horn and shouted at the throat: "Fathers and fellow villagers, don't miss it when you pass by!" The best kitchen knife, made of 100 steel, made of 100 steel, fake one pays ten, fake one pays ten! Come and see, come and buy! ……”

Xiao Er shouted, and in an instant the other shops were not willing to be weak.

Under the spur of the shopkeeper, the little two in his store also began to shout cheekily.

"Come and see, the finest white salt, come and see! This big brother come in and take a look, the snow-white table salt, without a little impurity. One stone only costs 50 yuan, come and buy it, if it's late, there will be no goods! ”

……

For a while, the big shopping mall was full of shouting.

In this noisy noise, the common people do not feel annoyed, but feel very lively.

Walk around the market, look left and right.

There are so many things that I can't wait to bring home.

Since the country surnamed Ye ruled Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the society has been stable, and those officials have not dared to fish the people.

In addition, the surname of the country has been committed to the development of agriculture and industry, and the promotion of trade.

Now it is not only the hometown of the country surnamed Ye that has set up a large workshop in Fujian, but even the newly recovered Jianghuai businessmen are working hard to attract displaced people to set up workshops and prepare to do a big job.

As long as ordinary people are not lazy, in addition to feeding their families, they can still have a few left in their hands, so that the always tight life is a little more relaxed.

Seeing so many goods, many people finally chose to increase their budgets and take out the reserves they originally retained for consumption.

It's almost the New Year, so you have to prepare some New Year's goods. After a year of hard work, isn't it just to be happy for a year!

The adults looked at the approaching New Year, and decided to loosen up a little.

The children who came with them were happy, and they had not worn new clothes for many years, but today their parents bought a new foot of cloth and prepared to go home and sew them themselves.

A lot of money has been spent, looking at the children's happy and pleading eyes, and they don't care about spending a few more small dollars to buy some snacks to satisfy their cravings.

I often see those country men in the big shopping malls, their clothes are tattered, their clothes and pants are still stained with yellow mud, and they are holding the hard-earned money they have earned for half a year, and they are a little afraid to walk into the big market.

After half a day, I came out happily, and most of my clothes were still so torn.

They were reluctant to buy themselves clothes, but the children who followed them had a bundle of Zan Xin cloth and chewed sweet maltose in their mouths.

These men carried large bags and small bags in their hands, happily watching their daughters-in-law go home with their children for the New Year.

It is not uncommon for families to go out and push wheelbarrows to purchase.

These are people with a little bit of money, but they are not too rich to come to the market every day.

So just like many well-off families in later generations, they went to the supermarket to make big purchases, and all the New Year's goods were done in the market at one time.

I heard that the newly woven fabric is very good, much thicker, and the price is not expensive.

Salt is white and cheap, just buy more, you always have to use it.

I heard that this oil was squeezed out by the students of Gewu College with a newly manufactured liquid press, which was labor-saving and produced a lot of oil, and the price also went down. I still have some oil at home, so I'll buy it next time.

Ordinary people watch the goods in front of the store, but the big merchants sit in the pantry behind the store and talk.

In the large pantry behind the shop, Zheng Tai, who also served as the chief shopkeeper of the Four Seas Commercial Bank, took a sip of Wuyi black tea and said: "You have also seen the goods in the warehouse, what do you think?" ”

When they come to the warehouse where the glass mirrors are stacked, they see all kinds of glassware that are ingenious, crystal clear like works of art, but also have practical value, as well as large pieces of colorless transparent glass and glass mirrors with silver backgrounds.

The greedy gaze radiating from the eyes of these big businessmen can simply swallow life.

When I came back from the warehouse, several major salt merchants who were still playing Xiao Jiujiu and wanted to unite to lower prices and rob salt agents are now disagreeing.

At this time, they are only concerned about one question, how can they cooperate with the Four Seas Commercial Bank to store these goods?

Years of business experience have made these merchants understand that not counting those salt agents, just a mirror in front of them is an out-and-out Jinshan Bank, which can eat for a lifetime.

Wu Qichang, a Jardine firm specializing in Dongzhu in Guangdong Province, was in a hurry, and when he heard Zheng Tai speak, he hurriedly stood up and said: "Mr. Gongye, no matter what price the Four Seas Commercial Bank offers, our Wu family is willing to eat it all!" ”

Zheng Tai heard it and said lightly: "I know that the Jardine Matheson business is big, but I'm afraid that your family won't be able to eat it!" ”

At this time, other commercial houses also spoke: "Yes, your Wu family is the oldest, dare to open your mouth to eat alone......"

"That is, in front of the public industry, what kind of heroism! There are four sea firms, who dares to be presumptuous! ”

……

Hearing that Zheng Tai actually said that the Wu family couldn't eat, Wu Qichang blushed and said: "There is nothing that we can't eat, Mr. Gongye just has to report the number!" ”

Zheng Tai raised his head and looked at the head of the Wu family in front of him, and said softly: "The treasury you are looking at is worth 1.2 million taels of silver, and there are three more warehouses behind it like this, a total of about 3.6 million. In addition to mirrors, our Sihai Commercial Bank also recruits salt agents, tobacco agents, and sugar agents...... Mr. Wu, can Jardine Matheson eat it? ”

Wu Qichang immediately stopped talking when he heard this price, he could eat 3.6 million if he tried his best, but once he ate it, all the funds of Jardine Matheson Commercial Bank would be occupied. If there is an accident, Jardine Matheson will be in danger.

Wu Qichang hurriedly picked up a cup and drank tea to hide his embarrassment.

When other firms heard the goods that Zheng Tai said, they didn't care to ridicule Wu Qichang. They all lowered their heads and thought about how their firms should fight for the agency of that commodity, and those who gave up. (To be continued.) )
