Chapter 24: Explosion
Today is a good day for snow sugar to go on sale, and Jing Xiu has carefully prepared for so many days, so naturally there is no room for mistakes.
He took a leave of absence and personally sat in the head office, Ba Sanhu and Yan Xiaoliu were close to him, and the ten guards left by the two old marquis, Xue and Lei, would be responsible for guarding the store and maintaining order to avoid a stampede caused by too many people.
In fact, he knew in his heart that Snow Candy was taking the high-end luxury route, and the ordinary people couldn't afford it at all, they just gathered around to watch the excitement, after all, it was wearing red and hanging colors, beating gongs and drums, which was lively and curious.
However, there are a lot of rich sons and brothers who come to see the excitement, and there are even a few daughters who wear veil-covering hats, and the rest are family members of each family, who are ordered by their own masters to take a look at the situation and collect intelligence by the way.
Of course, there are a lot of people queuing up to buy snow candy, and they are all dressed in black housekeeping clothes, they are all running errands, and the uncle is hiding on the side to command remotely.
In order to build momentum, Jing Xiu spent some money and hired some children and street gangsters, so that they could intentionally or unintentionally promote the dignity and function of snow candy, what kind of beauty and health preservation, and the health care and fooling Dafa of another time and space came out.
As for the issue of child labor, the devil cares about you, in the eyes of these children and their parents, Jing Xiushi is a good person with a good heart.
In the imperial capital gossip list, the popularity of snow candy is already high, and after such publicity, even if it can't be at the top of the list, at least it ranks in the top five.
The local tyrants of the imperial capital have heard all kinds of legends about snow candy, but they have not yet been put on sale, and there are not many people who have seen it.
The group of people who like to join in the fun the most are those talented scholars, with a folding fan in their hands, intentionally or unintentionally selling their literary talents, especially in places where there are many people, it is a good place to brush up on fame, how can they be missing?
"Hey, those poems ......"
A group of scholars crowded outside the store to watch the excitement, and some of them pointed to the temporary wooden sign on the side of the store door and exclaimed.
A few pieces of paper were posted on the wooden plaque, and ten poems were written on the paper, and when the scholars saw it, they eagerly recited it one by one.
"Grape wine glow-in-the-dark cup, if you want to drink the pipa immediately, drunk and lying on the battlefield, how many people will come back to fight in ancient times? Hiss, good poetry. ”
"The moonlight in front of the bed is suspected to be frost on the ground, looking up at the whiteness, looking down at the hometown."
"Thousands of mountains and birds fly away, thousands of paths and people disappear, lonely boats, fishing alone in the cold river and snow."
"The cool breeze rises at the end of the day, what does the group think...... Submit poems to Miluo. ”
These scholars may not be very talented, but they still have the ability to appreciate a poem, and they all have shocked faces at the moment, hissing and inhaling cold air.
There are ten good poems that can be called masterpieces.
Being able to make a masterpiece is already admirable, and ten songs in a row are absolutely amazing, and they are amazing.
"I don't know which senior did it?"
"Son of Suiyuan, isn't it written on it?"
"Childe of fate? I haven't heard of it, I don't know which predecessor is it? ”
A group of scholars have inquired about who the son of Suiyuan is, if possible, they want to worship the peerless style of the predecessors, and some people even want to apprentice to the idea of hugging their thighs.
There are thick thighs that don't hug, and the cliff is a stupid fork.
"Everyone, please be quiet......"
Shi Jun, the manager of Jing's head office, stood up to preside over the opening ceremony, he was recommended by Li Ping and hired by Jing Xiu with a high salary.
"These ten poems were written by my son-in-law, and you must have already tasted and analyzed them......"
Shi Jun didn't say half a word of nonsense, and went straight to the point, these ten masterpieces were carefully carved by the master craftsmen in ten high-end wooden boxes made of special materials, because it was only this once, so it was very collectible, 10,000 taels of silver a ......"
Well, Jing Xiu admits that this is a hunger marketing routine he plays in order to make money quickly, and scarcity is expensive, so how expensive it is to sell it, in order to satisfy the vanity of those rich people.
Selling sugar while casually advertising for yourself to brush up on your reputation, this is called killing two birds with one stone, being a man, you have to be thick-skinned to get mixed up, hehe.
But to be honest, he himself thinks that these ten are filled with a pound of sugar, the appearance is high-end and gorgeous, and the sugar box carved with an ancient famous poem is really collectible.
Of course, there are accidents in everything, after all, his reputation is not obvious, even if he copies the famous poems of the Tang and Song dynasties in ancient China, there is a possibility of overturning, so he left his back hand, if the most expensive ten boxes of snow candy could not be sold, he had to buy it himself.
Well, it's a routine.
However, Jing Xiu's worries were superfluous, even if those clan lords sent their families to line up to buy sugar, they didn't bring so much silver, and they didn't know the quality of the ten poems, so they didn't dare to claim it without permission.
Those scholars know the goods, but they are basically poor people who don't have a few copper coins in their purses, and they can't afford to buy them if they want to, so they can only look at them and drool.
Those who can afford to pay are those businessmen who have a lot of money in their pockets, but their social status is so low that they are not as good as the landlords who only have only about 100 acres of land.
Snow candy itself is a breaking point, 10,000 taels of silver and a pound of snow candy, and it is the breaking point of the explosion point, so not only is the snow candy popular, but Jing Xiu is also on fire, and it is a hot fire, and the fire is a mess.
If it was only because of Snow Candy that the name was known before, now it is with the marketing methods of Snow Candy, ten good poems that can be called famous have officially entered the sight of the big guys.
Of course, the name of the son of Sui Yuan also began to be mentioned in the ladies circle, which aroused the curiosity and attention of many daughters or famous ladies.
What girl doesn't have a spring? Especially those talented young women in literature and art, they have a special preference for talented people, and even if the love story of talented and beautiful women has a poignant ending, it is also fascinating.
How others reacted, Li Ping didn't know, but he knew Queen Li's reaction, smashed several valuable teacups, and scolded Jing Xiu for a bloody squirt, if Jing Xiu was present at the time, it is estimated that the end would be miserable.
Snow candy went on sale, and Li Ping also went to the scene to watch the excitement, but he was low-key, dressed in disguise, and hid in the crowd, Jing Xiu didn't know at all.
Li Ping witnessed the entire sales process of Snow Candy, and also reported to Queen Li as soon as possible, which is also one of his responsibilities.
In fact, he was also white in his heart, and Empress Li scolded fiercely, but he was very happy in his heart, spoiling that kid, otherwise he would not have taken out 200,000 cash and handed it over to Jing Xiu as investment funds.
The name says that it is an investment, but in fact, it is at Jing Xiu's disposal, even if Jing Xiu loses and tosses the money away, Empress Li will not blame him.
Jing family mansion, study.
Jing Xiu looked at Dongdong on the table and said in a daze: "Mr. Li, what does this mean?" ”
