When Ji Yijun returned to the store from outside, he found that Li Jia and Zhang Hong were arguing again as usual, while Hong Lifeng looked like he had nothing to do with himself, watching the excitement on the side.

The two had been unable to pee in a pot since the first day.

"Isn't it great now? We just have a wholesale station here. Zhang Hong pointed to the door, "Just these dirt buns, poor ghosts, how many things can we buy? We want to make money here and exchange for food, and we rely on large transactions with nearby merchants." What kind of small business to mix. ”

"That said, don't think of this place as a warehouse. If we want to understand the situation of the locals, and if we want to mingle with them, we naturally have to go deep into their lives. Now you look like you are sitting in the yamen facing south, and you also write a few big words on the door, who dares to come in? Who wants to come in?" Li Jia is a good-natured person, but when it comes to work, he never shows weakness, not to mention that the person in front of him, relying on the early arrival, is not a department, and he is stumbling everywhere.

"Actually, it's good, we're safe and hassle-free. Hong Lifeng interjected, for him, the person in charge of security, what he considered was not to cause trouble, not to cause trouble.

"The committee sent me here in the hope that this site would play a greater role and become a good link to the local people. Although this town is not large, it has more than 1,000 people in the surrounding villages. We will do everything in the future without the help of these locals. Li Jia restrained his anger and said in a good voice.

"Don't use the committee to pressure me, they sent me over in the first place, it was they who did the. It took me half a month to build this shop, and when I lived among the natives at the risk of danger, and used all my strength to deal with those merchants, why didn't I see them give me half of their support? Now that they are on the right track, give me such a peach picking. I, Zhang Hong, am not so easy to bully!" Zhang Hong slapped the table and walked to the backyard. Hong Lifeng glanced at Li Jia, shrugged, and walked out.

Li Jia was so angry that her face turned red, and when she saw Ji Yijun come in, she sulked and scolded: "My heart is so small with a needle's eye, when is it, and I am still thinking about it with my fingers!"

"Hey, there are more rotten people like this, save your worries, it's a big deal to do your own thing. ”

"Alas!" Li Jia sighed again.

———————————————————————

The streets of Sueroone are quiet and spacious, paved with teal stone, and some of the main roads even have sidewalks and gutters. Most of the houses on the roadside are dignified and richly decorated. The columns and eaves are covered with carvings. Since there was no glass, most of these houses were made of shutters made of fine wood. It is possible that most of the stone produced in the vicinity is reddish, and the houses here are all red, ranging from light red, rose red to deep red. The doors of the shutters and balconies are mostly painted white, so the whole city is distinctly colored, with blue, red, and white complementing each other.

From a small country town to this big city, the gap is so big, it makes Xiao Chen and the others feel that they have suddenly traveled from the twelfth century to the eighteenth century.

There are not many pedestrians on the road, and there are no small traders and vendors, but most of these few people are dressed more decently. Most of the men wore local-style cardigans and slim-fitting trousers, the rich, the trousers were delicately embroidered, and some of them shone with a faint magical light, and the ordinary ones were much more elaborate than the clothes Xiao Chen had seen outside the city. Others were dressed as samurai, wearing leather or chain mail, and carrying long and short weapons around their waists or backs.

Ladies mostly wore short- or mid-sleeved tops trimmed with lace and lace, and knee-length skirts with layers and wrinkles. Some of the young girls even wore short skirts that only covered their thighs. If it weren't for the pattern on the skirt, it would be a little complicated, and it would have a bit of a fashionable beauty.

Xi Luo took Chen Hansheng, Xiao Chen, and Luo Ling on the road, and they all changed into similar outfits and went to visit a local businessman whom Xi Luo knew.

"Xiao Chen, you see, the girls here are much more open than those in Floro Town, and they are white and tender, and they are eye-catching. ”

Xiao Chen saw Luo Ling glancing here intentionally or unintentionally, and quipped: "Old Chen, be serious, we can't make mistakes." ”

"If you want to make a mistake, what mistake can I make?" Chen Hansheng said as his head followed the two girls who passed by.

However, he immediately heard Luo Ling's soft snort: "Fake seriousness and old perverts are really a perfect match." ”

Siro couldn't understand their muttering, but saw Chen Hansheng's expression. said to Xiao Chen with a smile: "Speaking of beauties, even the king can't compare to Suero. It is where two great rivers meet, north and south and east and west. Big merchants from all over the continent would gather here from all over the world by waterway. From the south to the north, all kinds of styles of beauties will appear here, some are the eldest ladies of aristocratic families, some are the concubines of merchants, and many more, they are slaves. ”

"Oh, there are still slaves for sale here?" Xiao Chen and the others were curious.

"Suero has the largest slave market in the kingdom, if Lord Chen likes it, when he goes back, just buy two female slaves that are pleasing to the eye and take them away. ”

"And the slave girl?

"That's natural, and some may have noble and alien blood, but it's also expensive. ”

Luo Ling saw that Chen Hansheng was asking energetically, so she interjected: "I can call the shots in this matter, Xiluo, you go and buy it, buy a total of four, and record it in my account, Chen Hansheng and Xiao Chen, each person is divided into two, and you have to pick the most beautiful." If you want, I can buy you one and let her bear you a daughter." ”

Xi Luo is not stupid, he didn't taste right when he heard it, he didn't even dare to say it, and then squinted at Xiao Chen and the two.

Chen Hansheng's face was embarrassed, and he hurriedly said solemnly: "It's too corrupt, it's too degenerate, we are all civilized people, so we don't want to engage in this kind of tune." ”

Xiao Chen's brain turned faster, and he slapped his face and said, "Actually, you can go to the slave market to see. After all, we don't have enough manpower, and if we use it well, the speed of school construction can be accelerated. ”

"Pretend!" Luo Ling glanced at him and asked Xi Luo, "Where did these slaves come from?"

"Most of them are poor people brought about by the war, as well as the families of fallen nobles. Ciro looked around, lowered his voice and said: "Some of the big families here are doing this, buying off border troops, or organizing mercenaries to go to the surrounding countries to kidnap people. ”

"Kingdom law allows this?"

"As long as the kingdom collects taxes, merchants only want to make money, and the unlucky ones are people from other countries, doing legal things. ”

A few people walked and talked, and soon came to the door of a large mansion, most of the houses in the city were made of red granite. However, the entire wall of this house is made of white marble, which is very dazzling on the whole street.

"This owner is not ordinary. Luo Ling observed the sculptures on the outer wall and said, "These patterns and figures are much more exquisite than the surrounding houses, and they can be said to be high-level works of art." ”

"It's normal, Baron Goya Diaz was one of the richest businessmen in Suero and a legend in Floro. Ciro said.

"Oh, this guy is still your fellow countryman. Xiao Chenqi said.

"Yes, his father used to be a small timber merchant in Floro, but when he took over his father's business before he was twenty years old, he quickly became a colossal and ran his father's stall into a behemoth. Later, he married the only daughter of a broken baron, and after the old baron's death, he inherited the title and is now a full-fledged nobleman. If it weren't for the fact that my father, who was an accountant, had helped him when he had not yet made a career, I am afraid it would not have been easy to see him. As he spoke, Ciro knocked on the door, and soon a middle-aged butler came to open the door and led them in.

Led by a butler, they walked through the hall and a cloister to a reception room. The furnishings in the house are naturally very luxurious, but after all, Xiao Chen and the others come from materially rich modern times, so they don't feel much surprise. This made the somewhat trembling Ciro even more impressive.

"Ah, this is Ciro's magician friend. After a while, a very generous middle-aged man walked in, this person had brown hair, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his posture was raised, and he couldn't see the shadow of the nouveau riche at all. He shook hands with Xiao Chen and the others very strongly: "Contemptible Goya Diaz, it's really lucky to be able to meet a magician friend from afar. ”

Xiao Chen and the others exchanged pleasantries with him, and gave him a pair of wide-mouth glass wine glasses, which were bulk goods from the supermarket and packed in specially customized boxes. These glasses are so ordinary that no one will look at them anymore. However, it is indeed a unique thing in this era, and it is still much purer and more beautiful than the glass products currently produced by the school.

"This is the 'glass' you want to sell?" said Baron Goya, who took the glass and examined it in the sun, to the butler, "bring me a jug of rainbow fruit wine." ”

Hongguo wine is naturally a kind of wine made from "Hongguo", which has seven colors, and the same is true for the wine made. When the butler pours the wine into the glass, the liquid in the glass shows a beautiful multicolored luster in the sunlight.

"Very good, very good! This kind of glass is used to hold rainbow fruit wine, which can be compared to a crystal cup. But the crystal does not have such smooth curves. This thing is a treasure, how are you going to sell it?"

"We also have quite a few of these products, most of which are not as pure as this set of cups and come in a variety of shapes. I want to find a suitable store to sell it for. Chen Hansheng took out a few more glass products, including vases, plates, decorative small sculptures, and so on. I have to say that the art students who were assigned to blow glass, although their craftsmanship is not very good, but the beauty of the things they make is still very good. They also have works by world-class masters for thousands of years to copy, so the few things in front of them are still very attractive.

Baron Goya was silent, looking at the things one by one, and then asked, "Is the yield high?"

"Yield is not a problem, it's a skilled job, we just worked out the method, and the craftsmen are not skilled. It is estimated that after a month or two, the production will be considerable. Chen Hansheng replied with some regret, "But I'm afraid we won't be able to make this pair of cups for a long time, and we don't have much inventory." ”

"Is there a small amount of the best that cannot be copied, and a large quantity of ordinary goods that can be supplied?" said the baron, after a moment's thought, "I do have a shop that sells these things, but I will not do that. ”

"Why?" Xiao Chen asked in surprise, he could see that Baron Goya was obviously very interested in these things.

"Because, your way of selling is not right. The baron smiled, and only then did he reveal a hint of his true character as a profiteer.
