Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

Chapter 218 Chu Mo’s money-making plan (2)

Soon, a piece of exciting news came out in Chang'an City.

A down-and-out aristocratic kid from Persia, due to his family's financial difficulties and poor management, decided to sell some unique secret recipes in Shiweitian on Zhuque Street in Chang'an three days later.

There are many kinds of these prescriptions, and every one of them is enough to subvert an industry.

It even includes the most famous perfume manufacturing method and the brewing process of various fine wines in the Chu's chain store that is now famous in Chang'an.

As soon as this news came out, the entire city of Chang'an was shaken instantly.

At the beginning, most people didn’t know where Shiweitian was and which industry it belonged to.

But with the help of caring people, people soon came to know that Shiweitian was the real owner behind Datang Bank.

This alone makes countless people crazy.

Although Datang Bank is now being crushed by Tianxia Bank and Jiuzhou Bank, it has slowly faded out of people's sight.

But the name of the first bank in the Tang Dynasty really frightened many people, not to mention that there was a hidden sect behind it.

Although most of the bank's business has stopped, the business of exchanging copper coins for silver ingots has always existed.

In everyone's perception, Datang Bank is the owner who is not short of money. Didn't they see that all the copper coins could only go in and out? They only saw people exchanging copper coins, but no one saw them taking out the copper coins and exchanging them for others?

What's more, regardless of whether the news is true or false, just saying that the other party can conduct an auction on Shiweitian definitely has a certain credibility guarantee.

Where is Shiweitian? The two auctions held before did not shock the whole of Chang'an.

Now, if the other party dares to take over this business, he must have found out the authenticity.

So, when a sign was put up at the gate of Shiweitian that the auction would be held in three days, everyone started to get ready to take action.

As for Chu Xin next door, after hearing the news, her first reaction was: What kind of trouble is this cheap brother of hers planning to do?

When she heard that the other party also had the manufacturing methods of perfume and fine wine, she became restless.

Perfume and fine wine are the flagship products of our own supermarket chain, and they are also the storefront items of our own supermarket.

If Chu Mo was allowed to leak the recipe like this, wouldn't he be unable to continue his monopoly?

Thinking of this, Chu Xin did not hesitate and asked people to prepare a large amount of money. Depending on the situation, she might not be able to buy the two prescriptions.

After hearing the news, Qiwang of the fifth surname became energetic instantly.

During this period, the lives of several of their aristocratic families were really miserable.

Not to mention the fact that they had been tricked by Yang Hongyu and Chu Mo, a pair of adulterers and adulters, the recent Chu's chain store that appeared out of nowhere has made them very anxious.

Like Li Zhenying's Zhiyanzhai, many of their businesses have also been strongly impacted by rival chain stores.

Moreover, the impact they have received is far greater than that of other merchants.

After all, shops owned by Wu and Qiwang were opened all over Chang'an.

Other people's shops may have one or two items, or one or two shops may have been affected.

But for them, who control four-thirtieths of the world's wealth and have opened shops in the streets and alleys of Chang'an City, the impact they have received is not the slightest.

Although these losses will not hurt you in the short term, in the long run, it will be like boiling a frog in warm water. Sooner or later, your own store will be completely replaced by the chef chain store.

I said before that I had no choice. I didn’t have the skills to make fine wine and perfume, so I could only do it in a hurry.

But now, there are those prescriptions sold by the Persian merchants.

They believe that as long as they win it, let alone a small Chu's chain store, even the entire Tang Dynasty, their products will be treated like stars.

While several families were having a sweet dream, Li Shimin in the palace was ready to take action after hearing the news.

Although he didn't pay much attention to business affairs before.

But during this period, whether it was Chu Mo selling food or Chu Xin's supermarket chain, he was shocked by the huge wealth brought to him.

He also understood that if he was a majestic emperor, if he did the things that merchants did, he would definitely make those imperial officials degraded to pieces.

But if he doesn't do it, the national treasury's deficit will continue, and the feud over the Weishui River last year will never be resolved. It will be like a thorn in his chest, making him feel heartache even when he breathes.

He had known before that apart from the novel items, the most popular items in Chu Xin's supermarket chain were fine wine and perfume.

Although after the drought, he issued a ban on alcohol.

Not only are vendors prohibited from selling alcohol at will, they are also not allowed to make large quantities of wine again during this period.

But Chu Xin also has his own share of the industry, so this ban naturally cannot affect the other party.

But if he had the recipe for brewing wine, he would have to order Chu Xin to be severely punished, and maybe he could get a lot of benefits from her.

Li Shimin was so excited that he couldn't sleep when he thought that once he got the prescription, he would be able to monopolize the entire beverage industry in Datang, just like Chu Xin said.

Excitedly, he put on his casual clothes, mounted his horse, and rushed towards Shiweitian, without even remembering that he had wanted to stay away from Shiweitian before.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of Shiweitian, Li Shimin heard the noise coming from inside.

When he walked in, he saw Cheng Yaojin and Li Zhenying pestering Chu Mo, asking them to introduce the Persian businessman to them in advance.

The hall was also filled with richly dressed nobles from aristocratic families.

Seeing Li Shimin come in, everyone looked at him as if the pause button had been pressed.

Forgive Li Shimin for getting used to everyone's eyes, and now his old face was slightly blushing.

"Why are you looking at me? I came here today just to discuss something with my good brother Chu Mo. You can do whatever you want."

Everyone in Shiwei Tianli had seen Li Shimin several times before, so there was nothing strange about him.

And those who had never met Li Shimin didn't know the other person's identity at all, so they didn't take him seriously. They just thought he was a person with a profound background.

Cheng Yaojin was the second one to rush over to look for Chu Mo after getting the news.

As for the first one, it is naturally Li Zhenying who is colluding with Chu Mo.

When he came to Shiweitian, he saw Li Zhenying and Chu Mo chatting there. After listening carefully, he found that the other party wanted to see the Persian businessman in advance.

So, with a thought, he quickly joined Li Zhenying's ranks, completely unaware that he was working as a free actor for Chu Mo.
