Chapter 178: The Violet Incident
Only after the Great Voyage, countless riches converged on Tiandu County.
This made the purses of the countless nobles and lords of Tiandu County bulge.
As early as more than a hundred years ago, located in Tiandu City, the rise of the kingdoms of various places brought a different atmosphere.
Extravagance began to become fashion, new palaces, new palaces, magic weapons of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, flying boats of the Northern Tang Dynasty, gold and silver plundered from the Western Qin, all the wealth became the capital that people used to decorate, decorate themselves, and boast to others.
They gradually used all kinds of magic weapons as ornaments, hung them on the walls, and decorated their palaces with the most pompous colors, even the ordinary merchants, also used the most expensive glass on the tops of their domes, and the buildings became more and more magnificent, and people competed to wear gorgeous clothes, like peacocks with open screens.
It's just that the fly in the ointment is that the most beautiful colors in the world are too expensive.
Because of the underdevelopment of science and technology, the production of colors, especially for the production of purple pigments, is extremely scarce, and this noble color admired by the temple was later on, and even the princes and nobles of those big countries began to be unable to consume.
Now......
Looking at the purple flower pinned to someone else's chest, all of a sudden, this flower attracted everyone's attention.
When the party was over, all that remained was the whispering of a group of merchants and aristocrats.
People asked about the origin of the unknown flower.
The news began to spread, and soon, people soon discovered that Mrs. Tiandu County also wore such a flower on her chest.
So, the flower got a name, violet.
The name, like this flower, is noble and elegant.
Ten days later, the lady of the owner of Xiaoyao Mansion also appeared at the banquet with so many flowers on her chest.
Soon after, there were merchants selling violet rhizomes.
Someone saw an opportunity and began to buy the rhizomes and let the civilians cultivate them.
And the number of nobles who bought violets began to increase day by day.
The people of the Southern Qing Dynasty seem to have a perverted love for violet.
However, people gradually discovered that the rhizome of violet, although some people were selling, was still hard to find, and those merchants who bought violet soon discovered the talent of the Southern Qing people in business.
Many merchants in the Southern Qing Dynasty began to hoard goods.
It is said that the lady of the owner of Xiaoyao Mansion requires three violet flower arrangements in her bedroom every day, and she always has the most gorgeous violet on her chest.
This can grow violet rhizomes all at once, and become popular.
......
Liang Qichao drank the white water, and the tea leaves he brought had been drunk.
This is the most distressing thing about his trip, without tea, just like a man without that root, everything becomes imperfect.
He listened carefully to Cao Bufan's advice.
"Senior brother, senior brother really admires those Southern Qing merchants, their ability to hoard goods and spread them is really eye-opening. ”
Cao Bufan looked down on those Nanqing people before, although Nanling was also a part of the Nanqing Dynasty, but it has always been the Nanqing people who looked down on the Nanling people, and the same Nanling people had a taste of the Nanqing people.
But now, he found that the intelligence of these people was not below him, and his face couldn't help but show admiration.
The merchants of the Southern Qing Dynasty were very famous in the entire Great Wilderness because they had a rich Xiaoyao Building.
They are very sensitive to commodities and will buy them as soon as they feel that they are profitable.
After the acquisition, on the one hand, they began to show the dignity brought by violet to various candidate countries and even the major top sects through various relationships.
It has constantly aroused people's love for violet, and they have even invited painters to create various artistic works on violet.
A royal painter was invited to paint a portrait of the Holy Maiden of Xiaoyao Sect commanding the army to go to the Western Qin to eliminate demons.
It seems to show people, violet represents victory, honor, honor.
And in those kingdoms, if the merchants offered such flowers to the queen, they would immediately be loved by the queen.
And so, the violet, under their joint hype, began to skyrocket.
In just half a month, the price has skyrocketed tenfold.
Moreover, demand is still in short supply.
"Don't rush to let the rhizomes out, put them little by little. Liang Qichao thought about what Senior Brother Liu had told, held this [smart investor] in his hand and studied it, and muttered for a moment, "We must always maintain the imbalance between supply and demand, and we must also ensure that those businessmen are profitable."
The reason why it is valuable is that it can make countless merchants make profits from it, and only by holding on to a small amount of goods now, can those merchants who hoard violets build momentum for violets and sell them at a higher price. ”
"However, what kind of money can we make with only a few shipments?" Cao Bufan muttered.
Liang Qichao smiled, "What's the hurry, the time to make money has not yet come." And you have to keep in mind that in addition to those three firms, we will give priority to all the firms related to Xiaoyao Lou. ”
The price of violet rhizomes is still soaring.
By this time, it was not just businessmen who could perceive the profits.
Even the ordinary people of the Southern Qing Dynasty, even the two top extreme sects of the Northern Tang Dynasty, or the powerhouses from the Tiandu City Temple, the Guangcheng Mountain of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty gradually felt this craze.
For anyone, it is a difficult thing to obtain resources, for ordinary people, they need to cultivate diligently in order to have a harvest, and for monks, they need to go through life and death to get some resources for cultivation.
But when someone finds out, it turns out that there is no need to take risks, there is no need to stand their head on the waistband of their trousers, and even, there is no need for any labor, just ......
In the Southern Qing Dynasty, a group of people sold their cattle and bought some violet rhizomes, when his neighbors laughed at him for his delusion.
A miracle happened.
In just three days, someone was willing to exchange the rhizome for three cows.
The people around him, just because they bought violet rhizomes, actually became rich overnight, so they kept telling a thing that they themselves believed in.
Violets are a gift from the heavens, and they are worth much more than that.
Everyone who became rich overnight because of it, they are convinced, and they tell people about its magic over and over again, and they are tireless for it.
Many people have made a lot of money.
Some sect disciples also began to take out all their savings.
They also went around promoting the magic of this rhizome, and their ability to tell stories was naturally not comparable to those people, and they whispered about the legend of the purchase of violets by the temple Xuanhua Dragon.
No one wants to spend any more time cultivating this stem, but treasures it and prepares it to be sold at a price.
It's just that people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants.
When the price of violets doubles again, they will not sell it more and more, but will only hide it in their hands, hoping that it will rise even higher.
When its price soared nearly tenfold, when someone took some bulbous rhizomes and went directly to exchange real estate with others, the rhizomes on the market were collected again and refused to be sold.
No one is selling, but countless comptoirs are buying.
People believe that this myth will not be broken, because everyone believes that the rhizome of violet has extraordinary value.
This is no longer the driving force behind a small group of merchants, and there are even a large number of people who borrow money from money banks to buy violet rhizomes.
The Xiaoyao Sect was also aware of this terrible trend, and they began to participate in it.
No one can resist the temptation of crazy growth in assets.
Even if the Xiaoyao Sect is already rich in the world.
Think about it, a citizen under the door of Xiaoyaolou, just because he bought the rhizome of violet in the early days, in the blink of an eye, his wealth continued to grow, while his own wealth became not very optimistic.
In this case, the aristocracy used violets to demonstrate their wealth needs, as well as to keep their wealth stable.
Since a thousand years ago, Xiaoyao Lou joined hands with the temple to attack Xuankong Mountain, bringing back countless gold and silver treasures, and because of the arrival of the Great Voyage, the five major regions have frequent trade exchanges, which has depreciated the currency of the entire Great Wilderness Star day by day.
With the depreciation of the currency, the wealth continues to shrink, which has triggered the anxiety of all classes on the entire Great Wilderness Star.
After accumulating wealth for countless years, hiding it at home, I thought I could sit back and relax, but as early as dozens of people, people found that the accumulation of ancestors became more and more worthless.
And now, Violet has appeared.
The nobles of the major kingdoms, the disciples and elders of the sects are all vying to order first.
Even, there was a violet that turned purple and cyan because of mutation, and it actually fetched a sky-high price at the auction, a hundred superb yuan stones
As a result, those nobles and strong people of the sect no longer have the heart to spend time and snow, they repeat the stories they encounter over and over again, and these stories are added to the vinegar, as if the most beautiful things in this world are the first to be discovered by themselves.
A month later.
The price of violets has skyrocketed thirty times
One cow became thirty cows.
The elder who managed the property of Xiaoyao Mansion asked the owner of the building, Zhan Tian, to take out a part of the wealth from the treasure house and use it to buy violet.
In fact, the Xuanhua Dragon of the temple was also thinking about this matter, in order to keep the crown of the first sect in the world and suppress the hostile forces, it was all necessary to use money.
Over the years, there have been battles everywhere, and the treasure trove has gradually begun to bottom out.
Now's your chance.
However, the first to act was the three largest commercial houses in Nanling, Mu Chengfeng as the richest in Nanling, he had already invested all the treasury silver in the commercial bank, and now, he Mu Chengfeng is already the richest businessman in the entire Nanqing region, and his assets have increased a full thirty times.
