Chapter 47: Ten Thousand Goods Stores
When Yun Yi left the Plum Blossom Thatched Cottage with the bookcase on his back, it was already close to noon.
The scorching sun hung high overhead, and only a few pedestrians were hurrying through the streets.
Looking up at the sky, Yun Yi didn't think about it, and walked directly towards the sugar shop last time.
"What do you want to buy, this guest officer?"
As soon as he entered the door, a guy who ran the hall greeted him attentively.
Yun Yi looked at the signboard of the store suspiciously, and after confirming that he had not made a mistake, he nodded to the guy and said:
"This little brother, I don't know where the shopkeeper is?"
Seeing that Yunyi was here to find the shopkeeper, the guy didn't ask much, and directly led him to the innermost counter.
"Shopkeeper, someone is looking for you."
The man beckoned to the counter, then turned and retreated to the door of the shop.
"What are you looking for me?"
The shopkeeper of the sugar shop was sorting out the account books at the counter, and when he heard the voice, he stood up in confusion.
Because the light here is not very good, and it is backlit, he didn't see Yunyi's appearance clearly for a while.
"Shopkeeper, I'm here to bring you sugar."
Seeing that the shopkeeper of the sugar shop didn't recognize him, Yun Yi smiled slightly and explained his intention to him.
"Oops! It turned out to be Ye Gongzi, I can look forward to you. ”
As soon as the shopkeeper of the sugar shop heard the word white sugar, he instantly understood the identity of the person who came.
Since the last time Yun Yi left, the shopkeeper of the sugar shop has spread the news that he has tribute-grade white sugar here.
coincided with the recent county order Liu Geng's birthday, and several families with heads and faces in the city sent housekeepers to make reservations early.
Of course, the shopkeeper of the sugar shop couldn't take out the tribute-grade quality sugar for a while, but he didn't want to give up this opportunity to make money.
Thinking of the agreement he reached with the self-proclaimed scholar of the Ye family, the shopkeeper of the sugar shop agreed to it.
Now that Liu County's birthday is approaching, if Yunyi does not appear again, the shopkeeper of the sugar shop can only break the contract at the risk of offending people.
Seeing that Yunyi finally came to the door today, the heart of the sugar shop shopkeeper was put down a lot.
"Ye Gongzi, can you give me a look at the sugar you brought?"
As the sugar shopkeeper spoke, the man hurriedly walked out from behind the counter.
Although I am looking forward to Yunyi, I still have to see the color of this white sugar to rest assured.
"That's how it should be."
Since the light here was relatively dim, Yun Yi didn't notice the eager expression of the sugar shop shopkeeper.
But even if he knew the whole story, he wouldn't bother with the profits.
What money can be made and what money can't be made, Yunyi knows very well in his heart.
Once he personally took the white sugar and went to those nobles to sell it, I am afraid that not only would he not be able to make any benefits, but even the secret recipes for making these white sugars would have to be forcibly robbed by those people nine times out of ten.
When the two came to a well-lit place, Yun Yi handed over the cloth bag in his hand.
The shopkeeper took the bag and couldn't wait to untie the hemp rope.
Then, his eyes widened in disbelief.
"This ...... It's ......"
At this time, a few more customers walked into the store, and Yun Yi saw the shopkeeper of the sugar shop behaving like this, so he hurriedly stopped his movements, and then asked in a low voice knowingly:
"Shopkeeper, I don't know such a quality, are you still satisfied?"
The shopkeeper didn't answer, but took a few grains of sugar and put them in his mouth.
"Not bad! It tastes only sweet, and there are no other miscellaneous flavors, and it is indeed tribute-grade sugar. ”
After speaking, he couldn't help but walk to the door of the store with white sugar.
Carefully opened the cloth bag, and under the sunlight, carefully checked the sugar in the bag again.
Although the sugar was not snow-white in the sun, it was already the purest sugar he had ever seen.
This is a fortune!
Thinking of the orders he had undertaken, the shopkeeper of the sugar shop seemed to have seen the silver ticket beckoning to him.
I glanced at the cloth bag with the sugar.
Tsk, that's shabby!
After sending this Ye Gongzi away, I have to hurry up and customize a few exquisite gift boxes to come back.
As for the price of these white sugars, let's start at five times the market price!
Do you want to stop holding a small auction?
Who made the sugar in our hands the only one!
Well?
Wrong!
If an auction is held, the people of the Ye family must be excluded at that time.
Otherwise, I won't be able to continue my business.
Yun Yi didn't know that in just a moment, the shopkeeper of the sugar shop had already thought about it so much.
Seeing him staring at Bai Tang smiling silently, Yun Yi couldn't help but be a little puzzled.
"The shopkeeper, could it be that something went wrong?"
"I didn't ...... No, I was attracted by these white sugars for a while, so I weighed my son and counted the money. ”
Hearing Yun Yi speak, the shopkeeper of the sugar shop came back to his senses from his fantasy.
Seeing Yunyi's frowning slightly, he hurriedly smiled and ordered the guy to come over.
Then in front of Yunyi, he weighed the weight.
"The difference is less than nine taels and five cents, our first transaction, I will give Childe a pound of full weight, and it will be 1,300 yuan, I wonder if Childe has any objections?"
Ordinary black sugar, a pound of price is about 100 yuan.
Now he just brought a pound of white sugar, not only recovering the cost of buying black sugar, but also making a net profit of 500 yuan.
You must know that there are at least four or five catties of sugar at home!
This business is really profitable!
After receiving the silver and copper coins handed over by the shopkeeper of the sugar shop, Yun Yi's eyebrows couldn't help but smile.
He's not so much happy with the price.
Although he knew that these white sugars were in the hands of the shopkeeper of the sugar shop, he could at least make several times more profits.
However, Yunyi is not angry about this.
Before he has no fame, it is safer to live honestly.
There is food and drink, there is a field and a house, and there is a delicate child daughter-in-law at home.
It's not too comfortable on a day like this.
After the two sides settled the money, and said goodbye to the sugar shop shopkeeper who pretended to invite him to dinner, Yunyi walked towards the noodle stall in the market.
Just now, the shopkeeper of the sugar shop told Yunyi that if there is any white sugar in the near future, it can be purchased at a price fifty percent higher than the market price.
However, considering his previous disguise, Yun Yi still stubbornly stopped the urge to make another profit.
Those white sugar at home, let's keep it for a long time!
"Dare to ask the son in front, but is it the son of Yunyiyun from Taoyuan Village?"
As he was walking forward in the shade of the tree, Yun Yi suddenly heard his name called by someone behind him.
Turning his head suspiciously, he saw a middle-aged fat man, running towards him out of breath.
"I'm Yunyi from Taoyuan Village, I don't know who you are......"
Yun Yi stared at the fat man's fat face for a while, and didn't remember which one it was.
"Wan Yongan, the shopkeeper of the contemptible Wanjia Goods Bank, I don't know if I can invite Yun Gongzi to Fumanlou for a while."
The fat man, who called himself Wan Yongan, first wiped the sweat on his forehead, and then gasped and invited.
10,000 goods stores?
Yun Yi searched his memory carefully, and only then did he find the name of Wanjia Goods Store in the memory of the original owner.
Isn't this 10,000 goods store an ancient version of a supermarket!
It's just that the shopkeeper of these 10,000 goods stores, why did he find himself for no reason?
"I don't know what the shopkeeper is looking for?"
Although the fat shopkeeper was quite friendly with a smile on his face, but it was useless, Yunyi still decided to ask the reason in advance.
"Wan came here this time to ......"
Seeing Yunyi ask, the fat shopkeeper first arched his hand towards him, and then prepared to explain his intention.
But before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a commanding voice not far away.
"That boy, are you Yunyi from Taoyuan Village?"
