Chapter Seventy-Three: The Chamber of Commerce of the Jingshi
It took four days for the potatoes to be completely planted and the rice seeds to be planted.
When the rice seeds germinate and the seedlings are replanted, the farming is over.
Qin Yu has also been leading people to farm in the fields for the past few days, and he is very busy every day.
Just when Qin Yu was following the people and laying straw in the field, a soldier rode a fast horse from the city.
"Your Excellency!" The soldier jumped off his horse and bowed to Qin Yu in the field on the road.
"My lord, a caravan has come from Jingshi, and they have brought a letter, saying that they want to deliver it to your lord with their own hands!"
"Kyoshi's letter?"
Qin Yu was a little puzzled, why did Jingshi send a letter?
It is possible to say that Qin Zhen wrote a letter to himself, but Qin Yuan should have brought it when he came, and it is impossible to let a caravan bring it now.
Except for Qin Zhen, who would write a letter to himself, he had never been to Jingshi, let alone anyone he knew.
Qin Yu walked out of the field and wiped the sweat from his face.
Asked, "Do you know who wrote to me?" ”
The soldier shook his head and said, "Those people said that they couldn't say it, and they said that the adults knew it when they saw it." ”
"Pretending to be a ghost!" Qin Yu hung the sweat towel on the soldier's body, "I'll go back to the city, and you will work for me." ”
"No!"
Qin Yu didn't care that his feet were full of dirt, he directly rode on horseback and galloped towards the city.
At this time, in the living room of the Cangxian Chamber of Commerce in the city, Zhao Ling'er was personally receiving the caravan leader.
After all, this is the first caravan to come to Cangxian, so naturally it is necessary to entertain well.
"Our Cangxian County is poor, and we can only be entertained with bad wine, please forgive me."
Zhao Ling'er took out the only remaining wine in Cangxian, but it was obvious that the leader of the caravan was not satisfied.
Wu Shang's fat body is fat, and his face is cross-meated, and he doesn't look like he is running a caravan.
Wu Shang picked up the wine jue and just smelled it, and then threw it directly on the ground, and the wine jue rolled on the ground for a week and stopped at Zhao Ling'er's feet.
"It's such a backwood, and even the wine is so bad."
Wu Shang was very arrogant and didn't give Zhao Ling'er any face.
Zhao Ling'er's face changed and changed, if it was before, Zhao Linger would definitely take a kitchen knife and cut this person.
But now he can only greet him with a smile and sell the mirror in his hand to this person.
Zhao Ling'er picked up the wine jue and said apologetically: "Please forgive me, but this is indeed the best wine in my Cangxian County at present." ”
"Forget it, the purpose of my visit is not to drink, but I heard that your Cangxian specialty mirror, so I came by order."
"Take it out and take a look, and if it's appropriate, I'll take it." Wu Shang said with a proud face.
Hearing Wu Shang say the mirror, the displeasure in Zhao Ling'er's heart was swept away.
"Okay, okay, you wait a minute, I'll go and get it myself." Zhao Ling'er said and left the living room quickly.
Wu Shang looked disdainful. "If it weren't for the fact that I heard that the mirrors made in Cangxian County even liked the royal family, Lao Tzu would not want to come to this poor country, and he wouldn't even have a good drink!"
didn't wait long, Zhao Ling'er came back with a mirror.
"There's only one side!" Wu Shang only saw this mirror, and his mood, which was not very good, suddenly became even worse.
"Of course not." Zhao Ling'er explained, "This mirror is fragile, so we are very careful to preserve it, this is a sample for you to see." ”
"Really?" Wu Shang stood up, and the mirror looked at it.
"Good! Good! I'm so handsome! It was the first time for Wu Shang to see his appearance so clearly, and he was immediately fascinated by his appearance.
"Since you like it, make a bid." Zhao Linger said with a smile.
Wu Shang's eyes rolled, and he secretly said that this little girl doesn't seem to know how to do business, such a good thing, she actually wants a buyer to bid.
In that case, then don't blame me, it's just a poor country, and I guess I haven't seen the world.
Wu Shang asked, "How many mirrors do you have now?" ”
"There are two hundred and fifty-two sides in total, and the size and style ...
"Stop, stop!" Before Zhao Ling'er finished her introduction, she was interrupted by Wu Shang.
Wu Shang directly stretched out a finger, "I'll give you a piece of gold cake, I want it all!" ”
The Golden Cake is the highest currency in the Seven Kingdoms and can be used anywhere.
A piece of gold cake is enough to build a courtyard in Cangxian County.
But Zhao Ling'er heard Qin Yu say that this mirror is extremely rare, and ten mirrors and a golden cake are already very little.
And what Wu Shang had in mind was that as long as he brought these mirrors back to Jingshi, they would be sold at the price of one piece of gold cake.
Just when Wu Shang felt that he was nine out of ten, he heard Zhao Ling'er say: "I won't tell you, the cost of this mirror is extremely high, and a piece of gold cake can only sell you ten mirrors at most." ”
"What!" Wu Shang was shocked, a piece of gold cake is only ten mirrors!
originally thought that a piece of gold cake could bluff these Zhao Ling'er, but I didn't expect it to be not.
Wu Shang rolled his eyes, and said with a gloomy face: "Miss Zhao, you belong to the lion with a big mouth, although this mirror is beautiful, it is not worth the price." ”
"A mirror, at most, is only 400 Tang yuan, plus the cost of the road, I am already a loss."
"Miss Zhao, to tell you the truth, in a poor and remote area like Cangxian, I am willing to come, if you don't sell it to me, no one will come here to buy these mirrors."
When Zhao Ling'er heard this, she was also a little anxious, but Qin Yu had already explained that she couldn't reduce the price, and she would drop it so much at one time.
Zhao Ling'er said with an embarrassed face: "This, I can't be the master, I have to ask for instructions." ”
"Isn't Miss Zhao the president of the Cangxian Chamber of Commerce? How can you not be the master? Wu Shang looked incredulous, thinking that Zhao Ling'er just wanted to delay time so that he could increase the price.
But what kind of person is she Wu Shang, who has been in Beijing for so many years, not to say that she is the first in Beijing, she is definitely a leader, and she can't see this little trick.
"Miss Zhao, it's just a golden cake, it's done! If you sit down on this deal, if it doesn't work, then forget it. ”
Wu Shang sneered in his heart, as soon as he entered this so-called Cangxian Chamber of Commerce, he knew that there was a shortage of money here, so Wu Shang felt that Zhao Ling'er was settled.
At this moment, a firm voice came, which made Zhao Ling'er breathe a sigh of relief.
"With your attitude, don't do this business!"
Qin Yu was dressed in coarse cloth clothes and walked into the hall step by step with his bare feet covered with mud.
"Who are you, and when is it the turn of a mud-legged man to speak!" Wu Shang looked disgusted, afraid of getting dirt, so he took a few steps back.
Qin Yu stopped Zhao Ling'er, who wanted to speak, and walked over quickly towards Wu Shang, so frightened that Wu Shang kept retreating, and finally staggered to the chair.
Qin Yu directly stepped on Wu Shang's leg, stretched out his hand and said, "I heard that someone in Jingshi wrote me a letter, bring it." ”
Wu Shang was so frightened that he covered his face with his hands, and after hearing Qin Yu's words, he suddenly felt a thrill, and the swear words that had reached his mouth were all held back.
"It turns out that you are Lord Qin, disrespectful and disrespectful." Wu Shang changed his face in an instant.
