Chapter 393: It's not a secret, it's grown by my family
When the shopkeeper of the Yun Family Spice Workshop learned that Liu Paner was willing to sell cumin at a price lower than the Hu people, he chuckled and said: "The price is naturally the best, but our Yun Family Spice Workshop collects high-quality spices, so I want to see the sample." If the quality is high, the price is naturally good. If the quality is not good, even if it is cheaper than this price, Yun will not accept it. β
Liu Pan'er nodded, "Ah Rong, put the spices on the table and open them for the cloud shopkeeper to see!" β
"Yes, mother." Li Rong responded, then put the box on the table and opened the lid on it, "Cloud shopkeeper, please take a look!" β
When the cloud shopkeeper saw these spices, he found that the particles were full and the color was very positive, and the fragrance was tangy.
The cloud shopkeeper reached out and pinched a few, put them under his nose and sniffed them carefully, and then put them in his mouth and chewed them carefully.
Even if he wanted to say something derogatory, seeing such a good spice, he couldn't deny it.
The quality of these spices is better than that transported by the Hu people thousands of miles.
The cloud shopkeeper really wanted to ask Mrs. Drey, where did these spices come from?
It's just that he is in business, and he understands that everyone has trade secrets, so it is not good to ask them in person.
However, in private, the cloud shopkeeper will send someone to investigate.
"The quality of cumin is very good, and my Yunjia Spice Workshop will buy it at the price that Mrs. said just now." The shopkeeper Yun smiled and said, "How much Madame has, our Yun family can collect." β
Liu Pan'er was stunned for a moment, "I brought 1,200 catties this time, but I can't sell them all to the cloud shopkeeper, I also want to go to Yangzhou, Gusu and other places to go shopping, and look for a few more spice merchants." After all, I still have nearly 2,000 catties of spices at home, and there will be more next year. β
When the shopkeeper heard this, his face was shocked, "Madame's spices are better than the quality of the Hu people, the particles are full and fragrant. I'm rude, I want to ask where the spices come from? If it's inconvenient to say, it can't be. After all, there are trade secrets in doing business, Yun understands! β
Liu Pan'er smiled and didn't care, "It's not a secret, you can find out when you send someone to Cui Yangxian's side to inquire." I grew these spices. β
"Huh?" Shopkeeper Yun was taken aback and couldn't believe it, "Can we grow such a good spice cumin in the Central Plains?" β
As the largest spice merchant in Jinling, he naturally knows that the price of spices is expensive, and he tries to grow them. Naturally, some are also grown, not only the yield is low, but also the particles are small, and the taste is bitter, which is not as good as the quality of the spices of the Hu people.
He tasted it just now, and it tasted very pure.
Liu Pan'er nodded, her expression confident and sincere, "Yes, I planted it, and the climate of our Cuiyang County is suitable for planting on the dry land of terraced fields." Of course, the fertilization and planting methods can't be told to the cloud shopkeeper, and please forgive the cloud shopkeeper. β
Although it will spread in the future, at least Liu Paner doesn't want to tell others about it now. In fact, it has been learned in other places, and it does not play a big role. The seeds taken out of the space are very delicate, which is suitable for the climate of Cuiyang County. In particular, spices like cumin are very delicate in Dazhou, but not elsewhere. Unlike chili peppers, as long as it's not too cold, it can be grown anywhere.
Shopkeeper Yun was excited, if he could plant them, could he also use these spices sold by Mrs. Drey as seeds to plant?
"Madam, why don't we buy Madame's spices at the price of the Hu people? I just beg Madame to sell us all the spices. "The cloud shopkeeper requested, the unique business is easy to do, and he doesn't want Liu Paner's spices to be sold to Yangzhou Gusu and other places alone.
Liu Pan'er shook her head and said resolutely, "Forgive the cloud shopkeeper, at most I can give the cloud shopkeeper six hundred catties, and the rest will have to look for other customers." It's not easy for me to go out and open up sales. Next year, I won't need to come out and sell it myself, customers will go to our local area to buy. β
Seeing this, the cloud shopkeeper knew that Liu Paner had an idea, and it was not easy to force it, after all, the woman in front of him was not an ordinary person, she had a four-grade commandment, and her husband was also a four-grade military attachΓ©, and the husband and wife were deeply favored by His Majesty, such a person was not something that the Yun family could provoke.
Do business?
The emphasis is on harmony and wealth, and there will be more opportunities for cooperation in the future.
Shopkeeper Yun nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, six hundred catties is not a lot." Those Hu people come to me to do business, sell fifty catties today, and sixty catties tomorrow, bargain with me, which is really unpleasant. β
The cloud shopkeeper and Liu Paner signed a contract of 600 catties, and the cloud shopkeeper took people to Yuelai Inn to inspect the goods. If the spices are okay, settle the money on the spot. The silver ticket belongs to Hengtong Bank, and it is okay to ask for silver.
In the end, Liu Paner asked for a silver ticket, which was easy to carry.
The cloud shopkeeper personally checked the spices, confirmed that they were correct, paid the money with one hand and delivered the goods with the other, and also agreed on the next transaction method.
If you want to buy Yunjia Spice Factory, you have to go to Jixiang Town, Cuiyang County. At that time, the price will be the same, inspect the goods on the spot, and give money.
Just when Liu Paner and the cloud shopkeeper were talking about business, Li Fang and Li Nan, accompanied by Huo Chengda, walked around Jinling City.
Li Nan was very interested in the things on the roadside, bought some that Cuiyang County didn't have, took them back, and prepared to give them to his two elder brothers.
Huo Chengda led people to keep staring, for fear that if he made a mistake, the two young ladies would be gone.
Li Fang took Li Nan's hand and didn't let go, "Anan, don't run around." The flower shooter took you away, and you will never see your mother again. β
Li Nan, who originally felt that he was not happy to be held by the hand, heard this, and held Li Fang's hand with his backhand, "Then I'll be honest." We've been shopping for a while, Sister Fang, let's go find my mother, right? β
Li Fang nodded, "Okay, let's go back to the inn." β
By the time they came back, Liu Paner had already negotiated with the cloud shopkeeper to complete the deal. She put the money away and saw them come back, "Is it fun on the street?" β
Li Nan ran over and hugged her mother's arm, "It's fun, I bought a lot of things and I'm going to give them to my brothers and Aunt Xiaohua." Mother, have you negotiated your business? β
Liu Pan'er chuckled, "The spice business has been negotiated, and after eating at noon, I am going to take our fabrics and go to the major cloth estates to sell." β
Li Fang thought about it and disagreed, "Aunt Liu, you are Mrs. Fate, it is not appropriate to sell business." I'll go, although I'm small, I can let Uncle Huo follow. β
Li Rong nodded, "Mother, I'll go to talk about business with Sister Afang." Nothing more than the price and delivery method, the payment method. We're not as good at it as our mothers, but we can. A few more times and we will become more proficient. β
Liu Paner didn't care about these false courtesies, but the two children wanted to help so much, and it was also for her good, she couldn't refuse, give the two children more opportunities to practice, and become her good helpers as soon as possible, "Okay, you can talk in the afternoon." β
It's just that while they were eating, there were dark clouds outside, and after a while it rained heavily, and they couldn't go anywhere.
Since they couldn't go, everyone went back to the room, which made Li Fang and Li Rong quite regretful.
