Antique food: The general dotes on his lucky wife

"Chenji Processing Factory, Chen Dong's family from Qingshui County, Changzhou is here with his relatives!"

There was a sudden silence when they reached the second floor. Even though the leading steward's voice was not high, he shouted so loudly that everyone looked towards them.

Different from the discussions on the first floor, the owners of various trading houses on the second floor just sat or stood looking at them, some with curiosity in their eyes, and others with disdain in their eyes.

The steward led Chen Xi to a cubicle, "Dong Chen's family, everyone, please sit down for a moment. The business transaction on the first floor will start soon. If there is anyone in Dong Chen's family who wants to cooperate, just tell us directly."

Chen Xi nodded, and then the steward left.

This is what He Yun explained to everyone: "I have inquired. In order to trade the goods in time, the shopkeepers of the merchants here in Qiantang hold a large-scale trade fair every month. Most of the people on the first floor are individual customers, buying goods. There are goods for sale, but the second floor is basically filled with large local merchant houses in Qiantang, which mainly buy goods.”

Lin Changqing smiled and said: "It seems that our strength is still recognized by others." As soon as he arrived, he was invited to the second floor.

Chen Xi's eyes lit up after hearing He Yun's explanation, and he couldn't help but marvel at people's wisdom.

The modern Internet is developed and there are many trading platforms. Everyone can display their goods on the platform, and buyers and sellers can browse at the same time.

However, in ancient times, information was underdeveloped, and communication relied solely on letters. At this time, having such a trade fair would allow more people to learn about the latest product information, which was very convenient for both buyers and sellers.

"No wonder Hangzhou is so prosperous. In order to do business and make money, everyone has really used their brains to come up with many good ideas.

What a way! "

Logically speaking, Changzhou is not too far from Hangzhou, but there is no such trade fair in Changzhou.

Maybe someone knows about it, but no one organizes it.

Chen Xi began to wonder who the organizer was behind this trade fair.

At this time, Lin Changqing suddenly asked He Yun: "Have you found out who is behind the organization of this trade fair?"

Chen Xi looked at him immediately.

Lin Changqing saw her eyes and smiled at her, causing Chen Xi to quickly turn around as if nothing had happened.

Others in the room just pretended that they could not see the relationship between the two people. He Yun said calmly: "The person who organized this trade fair is Zuixianlou. Zuixianlou is the dowry of Mrs. Dou Bingchen, the left counselor, but Dou Bingchen is also the chief minister. He is a student of Wu Lianzhong, so maybe these are related to Wu Lianzhong."

Chen Xi secretly clicked his tongue after hearing this.

A Qiantang trading house trade fair ended up being related to the chief envoy of a province. No wonder the trade fair was so lively, because no one dared to cause trouble here and everyone was happy to do business here!

Lin Changqing nodded slightly when he heard this: "Wu Lianzhong came from a humble background and is a man of action. He has really done these things well."

He Yun added: "Wu Lianzhong's eldest brother-in-law Wan Shuxin is currently in the Navy in Hangzhou. He sent you an invitation before, but you are not in Hangzhou, so the invitation is in the study."

Lin Changqing nodded and stopped talking, because there was a sound of gongs downstairs, and the originally noisy Zuixian Tower fell silent for a moment.

"Everyone, today's trade fair begins now. All bosses, please come forward in order according to the number plates."

Soon the first person came out. He looked quite old. He had a bunch of colorful things in his hand.

Cloth, said loudly: "The Suzhou Duan family's first batch of Yaoguang brocade this year, a total of one hundred pieces, will arrive in half a month, the price is favorable!"

Chen Xi knew that one piece of Yaoguang brocade in Suzhou cost several hundred taels, but he didn't expect this man to have a hundred pieces.

At this time, a cubicle on the second floor suddenly shouted loudly: "Our boss wants them all, come up."

The man immediately faced the floor and said happily: "Okay!"

I saw everyone on the first floor looking at this man with envy, and then the second man came out.

"Tongzhou's new rice is 500 shi, and [-] shi is [-] taels."

Chen Xi quickly settled the score in his mind.

One stone of rice is 120 kilograms, which is 850 Wen, which is about seven Wen per catty, which is a little more than one or two Wen cheaper than buying it at the grain store.

The person who bought Yaoguang brocade just now didn't quote a price, but the person who sold grain directly called out the price, which shows that the price of grain is too transparent.

Chen Xi was still thinking about these things in his mind when he heard Lin Changqing waving his hand, and He Yun had already shouted downstairs: "Chen Ji Processing Factory wants them all!"

In an instant, Chen Xi smiled and greeted the gazes from all directions.

Even people on the second floor started talking quietly.

"Isn't Chen Ji selling steamed buns? Why did she buy so much new rice?"

"She probably wants to be in the limelight. People will know about her right away!"

"I think it was the young master who signaled just now. What is the relationship between that young master and Chen Ji?"

"You can tell they belong to the same family at first glance! Chen Ji is the head of the Chen Dong family to the outside world, but in fact, I think that young master is the head!"

At this time, the grain merchant on the first floor had already arrived on the second floor, and he saluted Chen Xi and others.

Lin Changqing only nodded, and Chen Xi also stood up and returned the salute.

When the grain merchant saw Chen Xi, he actually gave her a gift in return

, couldn't help but said with a smile: "Dong Chen, please take a seat and see if there is anything else we need next. It won't be too late for us to discuss business after the trade fair is over."

Chen Xi suddenly realized it and then sat down again.

Although everyone was curious about Chen Ji buying so much grain just now, the transaction downstairs was still going on, and no one had time to pay attention to Chen Ji anymore. They quickly paid attention to what was going to happen next.

There are many merchants downstairs, there are four NO.50s lined up, and they sell all kinds of things.

If you are lucky, you will be rounded up by some merchants on the second floor or even the first floor. The next best thing is to buy a large part and sell the remaining small parts in bulk. The most unfortunate thing is of course that no one cares about the goods and you have to find another way. sales.

After an auction, Chenji Trading Company concluded two transactions. One was Lin Changqing's purchase of [-] shi of new rice, and the other was Chen Xi's purchase of [-] pieces of gauze.

Of course, Lin Changqing bought the [-] shi of new rice as military supplies. He just gave the grain dealer an address and asked him to send it directly.

When it came to gauze, Chen Xi naturally had to look at the item first, and then made an appointment with the cloth merchant. After looking at the goods another day, he would trade directly if there was no problem.

As soon as the cloth merchant left, before Chen Xi could take a breath, the owner of the trading house on the second floor was already walking towards her.

Chen Xi secretly cheered up, knowing that the highlight of the day was coming.

"Dong Chen's family, I have admired the name for a long time! I was lucky enough to eat Chen Ji Baozi once, and it is indeed well-deserved!"

Chen Xi smiled: "Who are you?"

"Oh, my surname is Fang. I'm from the Fang Family Stone Shop. I'm in the jade business!"

“Hello, Boss Fang, when I first came to Hangzhou, I saw the bustling scene of our chamber of commerce’s transactions. It was really disappointing.

It opened my eyes! Please take care of me in the future! "

"Haha, it's easy to talk about! I wonder what the relationship between this handsome young master of Fengshen and the Chen Dong family is?"

Chen Xi glanced at Lin Changqing and saw that he had no intention of speaking, so he could only answer for him: "His surname is Lin, and he is also one of the owners of our Chenji Trading Company."

Who would have thought that Lin Changqing would speak at this time: "Boss Fang is asking about our relationship! Boss Fang, Dongjia Chen and I are close friends. We have the same interests and the same goals!"

Chen Xi: "…………"

Boss Fang: "Hahahaha!"
