Chapter 077: Zhen Yi Visits
After trading with the tooth people, Liu An and the others entered the newly bought mansion and led the horses to the small courtyard, Liu An arranged for more than 30 guards to buy the necessary materials for life, the clay pots and wooden boxes needed, the pigeon cages used to raise carrier pigeons, and the iron cages that could trap small animals.
He took Gao Sheng and Liu Bei to the guest hall to discuss what to do next.
The house of 380,000 yuan is fully furnished, and Liu An does not need to buy new furniture.
Sitting on the chairman, Liu An told Liu Bei all the things that happened during this time, including the attack on the manor by thieves and the promotion of Gongsun Zhan, and then looked at Liu Bei, hoping that Liu Bei, who was above him in all abilities, would come up with an idea.
Liu Bei heard that so many things had happened in the village during his absence, and he couldn't help but sigh, and then said to Liu An:
"In preparation, I should also go to meet my teacher first, my teacher is an upright person, and my uncle has a meritorious role in retreating from the thief, so he should be enthroned. As for the buying of officials...... But he disagreed. If cholera is going to be here today, it is because the eunuch bewitched His Majesty to sell his official beard, how can we help the abuse? ”
"Well......" Liu An listened to Liu Bei's words, and knew that he still had the impression of Liu Xuande, who was not afraid of power and would never flatter eunuchs, so he suppressed the matter of buying officials and did not mention it, and was ready to wait for the official to try to meet Lu Zhi first on the day of Xiu Mu.
If the road of the Shi clan is not clear, then consider buying an official.
After that, Liu An asked Liu Bei and Gaosheng to buy two ingenious, careful and capable maids to come back, and these two maidservants Liu An planned to stay in Luoyang and let them take care of the extracted animals.
Liu An came to the warehouse alone and extracted the old godmother, thirteen spices, sugar, instant noodles, shampoo, pumping paper, fruit candy and luncheon meat in the inventory.
Then he came to the yard and extracted 5 high-quality war dogs.
Liu An summoned the dead soldier who had previously acted with Liu Bei, let him get acquainted with the war dogs, and told him how to raise and train war dogs.
The name of this dead soldier is Zhang Qian, and Liu An specially picked out to follow Liu Bei before, although his abilities are not high, they are relatively balanced, and there are no obvious shortcomings.
Zhang Qian wrote down Liu An's entrustment, and then took the war dogs to get acquainted with each other.
At this time, the people who went to buy clay pots and cages also returned, so Liu An asked people to move the clay pots to the warehouse, and selected a few people to let them process the old godmother and fruit candy.
Liu An has seen the thirteen incense given by the system, all of which are in large packages of 120g per box, just one box and one can.
Liu An kept 5 packets of thirteen incense for himself, and prepared to wait for the stew to give to his mother Cui Shi to taste after returning to Zhuo County, and let people pour out the rest and put them in clay pots.
There are six small cans of sugar per kilogram, and 150 kilograms of sugar can hold a full 900 cans!
The fruit candy is still the same, with 20 pieces per can, a total of 37 cans, and the remaining 10 pieces Liu An put away.
Then Liu An called a few people to bring the shampoo and soap brought from Zhuoxian County to the warehouse, a total of 94 bottles of shampoo and 44 boxes of soap, but Liu An set aside four copies of both things.
After that, Liu An came to a south wing room, asked people to move the iron cage in, closed the door, and extracted the 10 high-quality pet cats in the inventory.
Luoyang is the most extravagant, and Liu An feels that if the pet cats provided by the system are cute enough, they should be able to sell them at a high price.
The system really didn't disappoint Liu An, and Liu An extracted a group of five cats, all of which were very cute.
Liu An put them in the iron cage one by one, and extracted another group of pet cats and carrier pigeons, and put them into the iron cage and pigeon cage respectively, and also taught Zhang Qian the breeding method.
and instructed Zhang Qian to ask Zhen Yi to discuss the sale of two kinds of pets after the pet cat and the war dog gave birth to cubs.
At this time, Liu Bei Gaosheng and the people who went to buy daily necessities also came back, Liu An looked at the two maids, asked a few words, and felt that they were quite smart and clever, so they handed the two to Zhang Qian and asked them to assist Zhang Qian in raising animals.
After arranging these things, the time had already come to evening, and Liu An sent someone to invite Zhen Yi as a guest while asking people to cook.
Half an hour later, Zhen Yi came to Liu An's house under the leadership of Liu An's dead soldiers.
Liu An was waiting at the door early, accompanied by Liu Bei, who had cooperated with Zhen Yi for more than half a month.
After bringing Zhen Yi into the living hall and the three of them sat down separately, Liu An asked people to bring up the table where the wine and food were prepared.
For dinner, Liu An deliberately opened a package of thirteen spices and put them in the dishes, and the escort team also put thirteen spices in the dishes, so that they could also try it.
It's just that compared with the dishes that Liu An used to entertain Zhen Yi, the taste of thirteen incense is much lighter.
Liu An invited Zhen Yi to taste the dishes he had carefully prepared, and Zhen Yi saw that Liu An seemed to be extremely respectful, so he was a little more curious, and picked up a mouthful of food and put it in his mouth to chew.
As soon as he entered his mouth, the tip of his tongue was touched by a strange fragrance, and he couldn't help but put some meat into his mouth, the meat tasted excellent, and after a while, Zhen Yi understood that this must be Liu An who brought another strange thing.
He put down his chopsticks and said with a dumb smile: "Did Brother Xian get a strange thing from a foreign country again?" ”
"That's true." Liu An didn't sell Guan Zi either, so he asked someone to take a jar of thirteen incense and present it to Zhen Yi, "What does my brother think about this thing?" ”
Zhen Yi opened the jar, picked up a pinch of thirteen incense and touched it, put it under his nose and sniffed it carefully, and exclaimed: "This thing is actually a spice!" ”
No wonder Zhen Yi was so surprised, most of the spices at this time were used as incense, and the children of wealthy families who could afford spices would make them into sachets and carry them around.
However, the composition of that spice is definitely different from the thirteen incense, after all, many of the substances in the thirteen incense are not available in Huaxia at present.
In addition to making incense, there are also those that are cooked with meat during large-scale sacrifices, but there are a few that are used in an ordinary light meal like Liu An.
"How many more virtuous brothers are there?" Zhen Yi saw that Liu An looked confident and didn't feel distressed at all, so he guessed that Liu An must have stock there.
"This matter is not in a hurry, I will take my brother to see it after eating." Liu An smiled indifferently and beckoned Zhen Yi to drink.
Where did Zhen Yi still have the heart to drink wine and eat meat, he put all his heart on the spices.
Two quarters of an hour later, the three of them hurriedly ate, and Liu An took Zhen Yi and Liu Bei to the warehouse.
At this time, the filled items have been put into the box, and the shampoo and soap have also been put into two large boxes with different specifications by Liu An, and all the items in the warehouse are neatly placed according to categories.
Liu An brought all the glass-light porcelain bottles and sauces to him, and said to Zhen Yi: "This is one hundred and fifty glass-light porcelain bottles and sauces, please count them." ”
These two things are directly traded with Zhen Yi, and Liu An needs to distinguish them from other things.
Zhen Yi only opened a few boxes and looked at them, then nodded and said no problem.
After several transactions, he has a general understanding of Liu An's character, and he is still very relieved of Liu An.
Besides, Zhen Yi didn't think that Liu An dared to deceive him, the energy of the Zhen family was not comparable to Liu An, and it was not difficult to deal with Liu An in the case of the Zhen family's reason.
With Liu An, he put the three items that had already set the price, luncheon meat, pumping paper, and fruit candy, on the other side.
"This is a luncheon meat, a hundred and five pieces of paper, and thirty-seven cans of fruit candy. As for these ......"
Liu An opened the big box of instant noodles and took out a pack to introduce it to Zhen Yi, but compared with the barrel, the bag had no utensils, and the amount was slightly smaller, so Liu An suggested selling it at 50% of the auction price, and Zhen Yi agreed after a little thought.
Next, Liu An showed Zhen Yi ninety jars of thirteen incense.
