Datang: The Craziest Scholar System

That's right, the middle-aged man is none other than Ding Zhengchao of the Zheng family.

"Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu have opened a wine shop on Zhuque Avenue, and they are selling a particularly fragrant wine!"

"The shop of the two of them is opposite to Changsun Chong's shop, and today Changsun Chong also received a watering can made by the Ministry of Industry, and we want to promote it vigorously!"

"There is another thing that I am very concerned about, that is, the two sides have been talking today, and during the conversation, Chang Sun Chong actually changed the signboard of the store!"

Zheng Chuan raised his eyebrows, "What was it replaced with?"

"Changsun Chong grocery store!"

Hearing Zheng Chao's words, Zheng Chuan, the Patriarch of the Zheng family, instantly became serious.

The walnut in his hand was actually crushed by him with a "click".

"Homeowner?"

Zheng Chao was taken aback.

"The three of them are the sons of the Duke, and all of them have opened shops, selling Quyuanli, wine, and watering cans..."

Zheng Chuan slammed the walnuts on the ground, "My Zheng family has always monopolized Chang'an's winemaking industry, and half of the farm tools are owned by us... They even made it clear to change the signboard, which is testing my bottom line!"

"But... I don't think Chang Sun Chong and Cheng Chumo are looking to deal with it very well."

Zheng Chao hesitated for a moment, but still said.

"That's just for outsiders to watch!"

Zheng Chuan gritted his teeth and said, "Do you think they represent yourself? They represent Changsun Wuji, Qin Qiong and several other princes. Dukes have always been like dogs of the same feather!"

"What are these princes going to do?" Zheng Chao was terrified.

"Hmph, the princes represent the will of His Majesty Li Er...We must counterattack!"

Zheng Chuan's face was livid.

In his opinion, the actions of Cheng Chumo and the others were provocations to him.

Farm implements first, then brewing, and what comes next?

If he does not launch a counterattack, other properties of the family will be swallowed up bit by bit.

"How can you let others rest in peace under the couch? They are unkind, so don't blame me for being unrighteous!"

Zheng Chuan took a deep breath: "Mobilize all family members who are outside. During this special period, do you really think my Zheng family is vegetarian?"

"Yes!"

Zheng Chao took the order and left in a hurry.

the next day.

Suzaku Avenue.

Cheng Chumo looked at the five altars of wine in the shop, feeling very upset.

Still no one came to buy wine, he thought it was unreasonable, obviously such a fragrant wine...

Cheng Chu sighed silently, couldn't help opening a jar, and took the lead to drink.

Qin Huaiyu watched all this numbly, and had long been used to it.

Just as Qin Huaiyu was thinking about how to sell the wine, Cheng Chumo's surprised voice sounded.

"Eh? Huaiyu, look across!"

Qin Huaiyu raised his head and looked at the "Changsun Chong Grocery Store" opposite.

At this moment, Chang Sun Chong was sitting at the door with his brows furrowed, as if he was thinking about some serious issue.

Qin Huaiyu stood up, observed silently for a while, and soon discovered the clue.

"It seems... very few people buy watering cans?" Qin Huaiyu asked doubtfully.

Because he found that although there were many customers on the opposite side, most of them came to buy Quyuanli, and almost no one was holding a watering can when they left.

Combined with Changsun Chong's expression, Qin Huaiyu could easily think of something.

"That's right! That guy's watering can is as unsalable as our wine!" Cheng Chumo said excitedly.

"Look how proud you are..."

Looking at the cheerful Cheng Chumo, Qin Huaiyu suddenly asked: "Speaking of Chumo, how did you get married with Changsun Chong when you were young?"

Qin Huaiyu has been curious about this question for a long time.

"There was a banquet when I was young, he robbed my beef, and refused to repent!"

Mentioning this, Cheng Chumo's face darkened.

"Is there beef at the banquet?"

"A banquet at my house."

"Oh that's all right."

"Damn grandson Chong, he still owes me an apology!"

"Just because of this?"

Qin Huaiyu was speechless, there was no reason for this.

"The hatred of stealing meat is irreconcilable!"

Cheng Chumo gritted his teeth and said.

Qin Huaiyu raised his forehead, what he said was like revenge for killing his father.

Opposite, Changsun Chong grocery store.

Chang Sun Chong held a watering can in his hand and was watching the customers coming and going pitifully.

"Do you need a watering can?"

"There will be a severe drought soon, buy a watering can and go home!"

"Don't just buy Quyuanli, you can also use a watering can!"

Chang Sun Chong was trying his best to sell, but it seemed that everyone didn't buy it.

And the people looked at him with unfriendly eyes, as if they wanted to beat him.

"What exactly is going on?"

Chang Sun Chong was about to collapse.

From yesterday afternoon to now, he has sold less than ten watering cans!

Normally, His Majesty Li Er and the Ministry of Industry will vigorously promote the watering can.

After Qu Yuanli was publicized, his grocery store was crowded with customers.

But why no one buys watering cans these days?

He doesn't believe that His Majesty Li Er didn't publicize it!

In fact, His Majesty Li Er had publicized it, but what he didn't know was that someone was obstructing it.

At the same time that His Majesty Li Er wanted to promote the watering can, the Zheng family almost mobilized the power of the family in the whole country to spread the word widely - the watering can is a scam, just to earn money from the common people!

The Zheng family has businessmen all over the country. These businessmen roam the market and have a very wide network of contacts.

Of course, the Zheng family will definitely not be found out on the surface.

This kind of news dissemination is in the process of doing business, if there is any guidance, let the people think for themselves.

So under the efforts of Zheng's merchants, this kind of rumor spread among the people on a large scale.

All of a sudden, everyone knew about it.

The power of rumors is terrible, the news may not be very reliable, but it really affects the people.

In fact, the root cause of this matter is that His Majesty Li Er promoted watering cans by selling them.

And if he didn't show his royal status, it would appear that he lacked credibility and looked like he was making money.

In order to ensure that the identities of Su Yun and Hongdou will not be revealed, His Majesty Li Er can only choose this method.

Seven days passed, and Chang Sun Chong's sales business was at a loss.

Of course, there was also no progress on Cheng Chumo's side.

"Hehe, Brother Chong, how is your watering can promotion plan going?"

Cheng Chu looked at Chang Sun Chong opposite him with a silent smile.

Chang Sun Chong retorted, "Even if my business is poor, I'm much better than some people. After all, some people didn't even sell a jar of wine! Oh no, you even drank a jar yourself, but unfortunately this doesn't count hahaha !"

"So what? I can't win, and neither can you."

Cheng Chumo confronted each other.

"Do you really think I won't win? The current situation is only temporary!"

"I'm so sorry, the situation here is also temporary, and my wine is about to sell out!"

The two looked at each other, sparks flickered in the air, and turned their heads away with a cold snort.

This day's sale is finally over.

Cheng Chumo picked up Qin Huaiyu and headed towards Zhangjiacun.

Chang Sun Chong hurried to find his father.

For the sake of sales, for the bet, and to be able to overwhelm each other, these two people are all a little angry.

Chang Sun Chong galloped all the way home.

"Father, it's terrible, no one bought our watering can!"

"If this continues, the promotion plan His Majesty said will not be completed!"

Changsun Chong was very anxious, and told Changsun Wuji all the situation in the past seven days.

Changsun Wuji was also stunned, he didn't expect such rumors, so he met His Majesty Li Er overnight!
