Chapter 59
For today's opening, Yuchi Baolin specially called Xu Zengliang, a shopkeeper who had worked in his home for more than ten years.

"Shopkeeper, I don't know the price of this Immortal Drunk? Such a good wine, the price shouldn't be cheap!" A big man with a beard suddenly asked.

Thinking of the price that Lin Xuan told him, Xu Zengliang's expression was a little unnatural, but compared to having been a shopkeeper for more than ten years, his psychological quality is still good, he smiled: "The price is indeed not cheap, a catty of money! This wine is It’s not worth the price, you have to taste it to know!”

"What! A catty of regular money? Why don't you grab it?"

"That's right, it's too much! The usual money is enough to buy more than 100 buckets of rice, and it's a fool to buy your catty of wine!"

As soon as they heard that a catty of wine cost a lot of money, it immediately aroused public indignation, and everyone cursed.

A bucket of rice usually costs five cents. Although the price has risen a lot now, you can still buy more than 100 buckets of rice with regular money.

Most of the onlookers were ordinary people. Although the people in Chang'an were richer than those in other places, few of them were willing to buy a pound of wine.

Xu Zengliang did not refute, and waited quietly for them to finish cursing. After a while, he said: "Everyone, you will only know how much this wine is worth after tasting it. At that time, if you feel that this wine is not worth the usual money, try it." You can leave later!"

"Hehe! I want to see what kind of wine it is that dares to sell it for a pound!"

"Anyway, I won't buy it, it's so expensive, you think we are all fools!"

"The best wine in Chang'an only sells for more than 200 yuan a catty, and your wine is four or five times more expensive than theirs!"

Xu Zengliang didn't panic when he saw that everyone was excited, and raised his hand: "Come on, bring out the wine!"

Hearing the sound, I saw ten buddies moving out ten altars of drunken immortals from the store!
When selling it, you definitely can't want to store it, all in jars of [-] catties.

Lin Xuan deliberately asked people to replace all the jars with small jars of one catty, medium jars of three catties, and large jars of ten catties.

The ten altars that the buddy brought out were all in three-jin containers, a total of thirty catties.

"Everyone, this wine means that the gods are drunk, open the altar!" Xu Zengliang waved his hand, and ten men opened the cover on the wine jar.

Immediately, a faint scent of wine spread to the surroundings.

"This scent..."

"No wonder it's called Immortal Drunk. Just by smelling it, you can feel that this wine is strong and mellow. It's a rare good wine."

"This is a fine wine that is hard to find, no wonder it can be sold so expensive."

The crowd of onlookers smelled the aroma of the wine and were intoxicated, talking a lot.

"Didn't you say it's free to taste? Hurry up and let me taste it." Someone couldn't help shouting.

"That's right, let's try it."

"Could it be a lie?"

The rest of the people have long been greedy, and they all echoed the words.

Xu Zengliang said loudly, "Free tasting must be true. Please line up and come one by one."

The crowd of onlookers heard the words and lined up obediently as required.

"Pour wine." Xu Zengliang motioned.

The buddy first pours the wine into the wine jug, and then pours it into the prepared small wine glasses one by one.

"No way! Let's just taste this little?" The first in line was a strong man, seeing that the wine glass was so pitifully small, his face suddenly showed displeasure.

"Just be content! He gave you a drink for free, but if there are so many people, if you drink too much, will he still do business?" A person next to him said angrily.

Some people also looked disdainful, "I want to see how delicious this wine is, and dare to sell it for a catty!"

"Please!" Xu Zengliang signaled the strong man to drink.

The strong man couldn't wait to pick up the wine and drank it down.

"Good wine!"

The strong man yelled loudly: "It's really good wine! Once this wine enters the throat, the rest of the wine will be hard to swallow!"

When the people behind heard the strong man's words, they couldn't help shouting: "Get out of the way after you finish drinking, we haven't drunk yet."

The strong man was intoxicated, when he heard the scolding from other people, he smiled slyly and moved away from his seat.

The people behind quickly stepped forward to pick up the wine and started drinking.

"Good wine! If it wasn't for the poor family, you must buy a catty!" The man sighed softly after drinking, with a helpless look on his face.

……

"Lin Xuan, so many people have drank it, why no one bought it." Cheng Chumo couldn't help asking.

There are more than 100 people who have tasted it, but no one bought it.

Yuchi Baolin and Li Deju also looked at Lin Xuan anxiously.

Wine is good wine, but it's useless if no one sells it.

They were wondering if they should persuade Lin Xuan to lower the price.

"What are you in a hurry for? Those who didn't try it were ordinary people. It's no wonder they can afford it." Lin Xuan was not in a hurry at all.

He priced it so high that he didn't intend to sell it to the common people.

There are so many noble families in Chang'an, is a catty of wine very expensive?

As long as the reputation is spread, there is no need to worry about selling it.

"They can't afford it because the price is too high, we just need to lower the price." Yuchi Baolin said.

"No, the price cannot be lowered, and there is a purchase limit. No one can buy a maximum of five catties." Lin Xuan firmly disagreed with the price reduction.

"I said Lin Xuan, no one bought it, and you still want to limit the purchase?" Cheng Chumo and the three looked puzzled.

"You don't understand, the people who come here are ordinary people. When the immortal drunk spreads throughout Chang'an, someone will come to buy it." Lin Xuan said lightly.

"I believe this, but what are you limited to?" Cheng Chumo asked.

There is no shortage of rich people in Chang'an, not to mention selling one guan, even if the wine sells ten guan, there are people who buy it.

"Rare is the most expensive thing. We limit the purchase, so others will think our wine is rare." Lin Xuan explained.

"But the purchase is restricted, and we can't sell much wine in a day." Li Dezheng said.

Such an expensive wine can't be bought in the first place, how much can you sell in a day after the purchase limit?
Lin Xuan rolled his eyes, and said speechlessly: "Are you guys stupid? Let me ask you, if you like this wine, you can only buy five catties per person, what will you do?"

"We want to buy it, who dare not sell it? I don't think he wants to open his shop." Cheng Chumo said confidently.

Yuchi Baolin and Li Deju nodded in agreement.

Lin Xuan patted his forehead, feeling unable to communicate with them.

I'm just a hypothesis, what do you guys mean by giving me a dude look.

"Once we limit the purchase, those who want to buy it will send a few more servants to buy it."

Lin Xuan explained it to them directly.

He originally wanted to show off, but now he has completely given up, and he is just playing the piano to the cow.

"If this is the case, why is there still a purchase restriction?" Cheng Chumo scratched his head and asked.

"hehe"

You are so right, I am speechless.

"Just listen to me." Lin Xuan was too lazy to explain to them.
