10. Sell glass
Luo Wei shook his head and rejected Xiaoqing's proposal.
Bai Suzhen can indeed use the trick to turn stones into silver and use them to buy salt.
But in Luo Wei's view, this kind of behavior is no different from fraud.
And the blinding method is always a blinding method, once it is punctured, there will be endless troubles, after all, there are not only two cultivators Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing in this world.
It's a world of immortals and Buddhas.
What's more, Luo Wei, as a law-abiding person, naturally wouldn't do this kind of thing,
"I have a way to make money."
"What's the solution?" Xiaoqing asked curiously.
Luo Wei opened the dimensional door, returned to his home in the real world, took two glasses and walked back, and put them in front of Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing.
"What do you think of these two cups?"
Bai Suzhen said: "Avi, are you going to sell these two glass cups?" ”
Luo Wei shook his head and said: "It's not a glass cup, it's a glass glass, in our world, this thing is very common, a few pennies a piece." ”
"But in this world, these things are quite rare and can be sold for a good price."
When Xiaoqing heard this, he immediately said: "In that case, why don't we just open a glass shop to sell these cups, and we have to buy some salt." ”
"Aren't these cups worth more than salt, and they don't need salt."
Ah......h
Luo Wei suddenly reacted, what Xiaoqing said seemed to make sense, there seemed to be no difference between selling glass and selling salt.
In that case, why should I buy salt?
The novel misunderstood me.
The reason why Luo Wei wants to sell salt is mainly because he has read a lot of time-traveling novels, in which the protagonist uses modern technology to make salt, and then makes a lot of money.
In addition, it has been mentioned in many novels that there was a considerable shortage of salt in ancient times.
So buying salt is quite a lucrative thing.
In ancient times, basically every salt merchant was the owner of the family, so Luo Wei subconsciously decided to sell salt to make money, and only by selling salt could he make a lot of money.
However, after Xiaoqing's reminder, Luo Wei reacted that in fact, buying glass is the same as selling salt.
It's a very lucrative business.
Selling salt can be sold to the poor people, with small profits and quick turnover, and it is endless.
But selling glass can be sold to those dignitaries and wealthy businessmen, who are all big dogs, and some have money, and they can also make a lot of money.
After all, anyone who knows a little ancient knowledge knows that there was the Song Dynasty, although it was repeatedly defeated on the battlefield, it was bullied by the Liao State and the Jin State in turn, and was even destroyed by the Mongols in the end.
Thus won the title of Da Jiao.
But the economy of the Song Dynasty was really developed, and there were countless rich people.
Especially the imperial court, which is even richer.
Every year, there are so many coins that are given to neighboring countries that they don't blink an eye.
So in this dynasty, selling things like glasses is really not worrying about not being able to sell at all.
Thinking of this, Luo Wei slapped the table, "Okay, let's take a two-pronged approach, first open a glass shop, and after making a sum of money, we will open a salt shop." ”
Xiaoqing asked, "Why do you want to open a salt shop, obviously there are glass shops." ”
Luo Wei opened the dimensional door and pointed to the white salt piled up in the living room, "I bought everything, don't sell it, wait for mold." ”
Xiaoqing was speechless for a moment, and then glared at Luo Wei angrily.
"Whoever made you think it out of the way deserves it."
Luo Wei smiled and didn't argue with Xiaoqing.
Bai Suzhen said: "What should I do with the money that opened the glass shop?" ”
Luo Wei was confident, and pointed to the glasses on the table, "Find a pawnshop, give these two glasses first, and then use the money to open a glass shop, what do you think?" ”
Xiaoqing nodded.
Bai Suzhen smiled slightly and said, "It's feasible." ”
Without further ado, the group of three immediately took action, first found a box, put two glasses in it, and then left Baifu and came to a bustling street.
When Luo Wei came to Hangzhou City yesterday, although he saw the prosperity of Hangzhou City, he was in a hurry to go back to Baifu at that time, and did not observe Hangzhou City carefully.
Therefore, the city of Hangzhou he saw was just the tip of the iceberg.
And now, he has the leisure time to take a good look at this bustling city.
On the streets, people come and go, and pedestrians in the market are rubbing shoulders and flowing endlessly.
The ground underfoot is paved with blue stone slabs, wide and neat, enough to accommodate a number of wagons moving side by side.
The houses on both sides are lined up, with tea houses, wine shops, foot shops, butcher shops, temples, public houses and so on.
In the store, there are specialized in silk and satin, jewelry and spices, incense paper horses, etc., in addition, there are also medical clinics, cart repair, fortune telling, face trimming, and all walks of life.
Merchants doing business, gentry watching the streets, officials on horseback, hawkers, and even beggars on the streets.
Men, women and children, urban agriculture and industry, three religions and nine streams, everything.
There is one thing to say, this kind of antique scenery, Luo Wei has only seen it in the famous painting, the Qingming Riverside map.
I didn't expect that today I could use my own eyes to witness the prosperity of the Southern Song Dynasty.
It does give an unbeatable punch.
At this moment, Luo Wei really realized how prosperous the Song Dynasty was.
And this is something that can't be shown in the movie at all.
After all, no crew should spend a lot of money to reproduce the once prosperous city of Hangzhou.
After a while, under the leadership of Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing, Luo Wei came to a pawnshop.
The shopkeeper of the pawnshop was stunned when he saw Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing.
Luo Wei was already surprised by this.
Who made Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing so beautiful, even if the two snake spirits who have achieved cultivation do not use any charm, as long as they smile lightly, they can make ordinary people dizzy.
Fortunately, the shopkeeper of the pawnshop was well-informed, and soon came back to his senses and hurriedly greeted him.
"The two ladies came to the pawnshop, but they wanted to pawn something."
Luo Wei stepped forward, blocked in front of Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing, and opened the box in his hand, revealing the two glasses inside.
The shopkeeper glanced at it, and his face changed suddenly.
Glass was a rarity in ancient times, and the price remained high.
Li Kang of the Tang Dynasty recorded this in "Du Yizhi":
In the Kaiyuan period, there are Chang'an peddlers and two dogs, who try to go back and forth to Zijun to sell silk, and the profit is also small.
One day, the orphan house was stolen and all the property was lost. The second dog sighed: God doesn't help me. Then he wanted to commit suicide.
In the dark, I saw an old man, dressed in brocade and jade belt, wearing a crown, wearing a red robe, white face and long beard, gentle and elegant, "Ruyi" in his left hand, "Yuanbao" in his right hand.
Xingjun said: "You should be rich and rich, how can you take your own life!" Don't hear that Zizhou is out of glass? "And he gave up an ingot, and he went.
The second dog sold glass and grew up to be the richest man.
I was also grateful for the gift of Xingjun and changed his name to ingots.
