The Otherworld: Chapter 12: Buying and Selling
Chapter XII
Only then did the shopkeeper come back to his senses, and his face was suddenly full of surprise, and he said yes repeatedly. "Okay, okay, I'll do it, I'll do it!"
The old village chief was in a slightly better mood today, Liu Qi went over to greet him, and said that he wanted to go out to talk about business, and the old village chief turned his head and called Liu Wang and Liu Cheng and asked the two goods to follow.
Walking on the street, Liu Qi took the lead with great strides, two fools, one left and one right followed, there was a feeling of evil and less travel, and the idlers on the street also avoided from a distance when they saw it, opened the map, and found the largest grain and oil store in the city after a while.
When he entered the door, he asked the young man to call the owner, and after a while, a person came out, with a fat head and big ears, a white face and a beard, and he looked very happy.
"Contemptible Wen Mao, I don't know what a few guest officials are looking for?" Wen Mao bowed with a smile, "I've seen Boss Wen, kid Liu Qi, I want to talk about business with Boss Wen" Liu Qi replied with a salute.
"Oh, but Liu Qi, the prodigy of Liujia Village who sacrificed the plough yesterday?" Wen Mao said in surprise, "Don't dare to be a kid." "Rare guest, rare guest! Hurry up and please, Dongzi watch the tea!"
"Uh... Tea is enough, warm water is fine. ”
When he entered the inner room, Liu Qi didn't talk nonsense, took the burden that Liu Wang was carrying, put it on the table and opened it.
Wen Mao was stunned for a moment, followed by a slight narrowing of his eyes, "Is this .........?"
"Taste", Liu Qi smiled lightly.
Wen Mao stretched out his fingers, dipped a little and put it in his mouth, suddenly his pupils shrank, and he gasped and shouted, "This.... It's salt!"
When I exchanged the stills at the brewery at home, I exchanged a pot with the system for refining refined salt, which was exactly the same as the one used for brewing wine at home, and no one could see it by making a mark and throwing it aside.
Liu Qidui's thing is really unbearable coarse salt is bitter and astringent, the system must be a high-quality product, the magic of this pot lies in how much coarse salt goes in and how much refined salt comes out. I don't know if there is iodization, it is completely undamaged, it is a little firewood.
The current price of salt is actually quite expensive, close to two taels and one catty, but because the amount is not large, everyone does not think it.
It was agreed in a few sentences that Wen Ji Commercial Bank purchased the refined salt of Liu's Group at a price of four taels per catty, and Liu's Group was not allowed to supply to other merchants in the county, and if necessary, Wenji Commercial Bank was required to provide coarse salt to Liu's Group, and the supply price should not be higher than one or two five, and the payment for the goods was deducted from refined salt.
After signing the paperwork, Wen Mao was overjoyed, and he must stay with Liu Qi for lunch, Liu Qi said that he would leave if he still had business to discuss.
Wen Mao's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked what kind of business it was, he Wen Mao had more than one grain and oil store, Liu Qi looked around and didn't find anything that could be used, so he got up and entered the store.
I saw a rag where the oil was sold, oily, and when I got closer, I smelled a strange smell. Liu Qi called the guy named Dongzi over and asked him to fetch two basins of water and put them outside the store.
took Liu Cheng's backpack and took out a wooden box, opened it, and handed it to Dongzi, who was confused, "Use the contents of this box to wash off that rag." ”
Dongzi took the box, looked left and right, and was at a loss, Liu Cheng strode forward, grabbed the rag and walked out of the store, and said "Roe deer!"
Lao Tzu was the one who washed his feet and socks with soap last night!
I saw Liu Cheng soaking in water, soaping, and rubbing, and immediately a basin of water turned black, and there were some yellow bubbles floating on the surface, which was very disgusting.
"Change the basin of water!" Liu Cheng instructed Dongzi, who was born with a loud voice, which scared Dongzi a spirit.
After three basins of water, the rag gradually returned to its original gray, Liu Cheng nodded with satisfaction, stood up, and handed the rag to Wen Mao.
This is 100 times better than pancreas!
After the matter is done, Wen Mao will invite Liu Qi to dinner no matter what he says, "Then go to an inn, and introduce Boss Wen to meet Shopkeeper Wang by the way, and the salt in the restaurant will have to be bought from Boss Wen in the future!" Liu Qi said with a smile.
"I'm an old friend with Shopkeeper Wang, haha."
After dinner, a servant came over, saying that the county magistrate had invited Liu Qi to come to the mansion, and this time the four fools were dispatched together to protect the safety.
In the study, Luo Yi and Liu Qi sat across the table, Luo Yi looked at Liu Qi and said: "Although this official has met you for the first time, I see that you are young and old, and you have a degree of advance and retreat, which is by no means comparable to the young people in the ordinary village.
Liu Qi sighed, "Inheriting the adult's false praise, the kid is fortunate to have the dream of his ancestors, and he can't afford to do big things when he is young."
"Look at you kid, you are young but you can't slip your hands, what this official means is that you are the main contributor to this report, and such a major event will definitely reach the heavens, and there will be a reward at that time, so I want to ask you what your kid's ambitions are?" Luo Yi pretended to be angry and said.
"Back to my lord, the boy's father died early, the orphans and widows at home, thanks to the help of the villagers in order to live in peace, the boy just wants to earn more money and food to make the village life rich, the boy will always have to leave home in the future, and he will rest assured. Liu Qiying said.
"It's not wrong to have this idea, but you are now ten years old, and you have not yet been enlightened, and in a few years, you will get older, and when the time comes, you will be useless!" Luo Yi said.
