Little Scholar's Circle of Husbands

Counting the days, Lu Fangzhou finally reached the tenth day, and rushed to Zhenpinzhai in Shengxian county early in the morning.

Unlike the last time when no one answered the door, this time when he entered the door, the clerk hurriedly led him to another room, and rushed to call the shopkeeper.

Lu Fangzhou was happy in his heart, it's a good sign, the torreya consignment sale last time must have been sold, and the sales are good.

Lu Fangzhou was half right. His torreya not only sold well, but the woman who came with Lu Xingzhou that day was quite noble, and for some reason, she fell in love with the torreya fried by Lu Fangzhou, and bought it for half a year. catty.

Three days later, the woman actually sent someone to buy the rest of the torreya, and six days later, many people came to Zhenpin Zhai to ask for the torreya by name.

The treasurer of Zhenpinzhai noticed something was wrong, and while dealing with the crowd saying that it would take time to fry Torreya torreya, and asked them to come back in a few days, he sent someone out to inquire.

After inquiring, I found out that the girl who came that day was actually the daughter of the governor of Yuezhou. The governor of Yuezhou's official position is not high, but he has a wife of high status, Du Shi, who is a sister of the same clan as Concubine Du Gui, who is favored by the emperor today.

Mrs. Du knew Concubine Du's preference. Concubine Du was born to be fat, but the Holy Majesty did not like women who were too plump. For this reason, Concubine often went on a diet and felt uncomfortable after dieting. There was once an imperial physician who taught Concubine Du a way to chew slowly when she was hungry. Mountain goods, chewing a walnut for a quarter of an hour can satisfy your hunger, and you don't get fat by eating too much.

After trying it, Concubine Du Gui found that this method was very good. After rewarding her heavily, she ordered people to find some mountain products with different tastes, so as to solve the small flaw of the single taste of mountain products.For this reason, people in Du's family tried their best to find all kinds of mountain products in order to curry favor with the imperial concubine.

The flesh of the torreya fruit is hard, and if a woman chews it slowly, it can take a quarter of an hour. Unlike other mountain products, the more you chew, the more tasteless the torreya, the more fragrant the torreya is.The most important point is that Concubine Du Gui was born with a strange fragrance, and the Holy One was delighted with it. Suxi called her Xiangfei, Torreya Fragrant Concubine, and the combination of the two into one is wonderful!

Du Shi immediately sent people to Sheng County to buy the remaining torreya one by one. The governor of Yuezhou privately transferred the fast horses in the army, and sent them to Chang'an overnight. From Yuezhou to Chang'an, thousands of miles away, it usually takes ten days It takes half a month to arrive.

It took five days for the governor of Yuezhou to run away and kill ten good horses, and sent the torreya to the palace.

Concubine Du Gui was very happy to get this object. Just as the saint came to Xingfengzao Palace, when she saw this object, she immediately praised: "Torreya, Fragrant Concubine, just suitable for my beloved concubine."

Although the queen was annoyed when she heard it, she did not get angry because of a small thing. Instead, she followed the emperor's wishes and asked for an order to designate the torreya as a tribute, and ordered the governor of Yuezhou to pay tribute every year.

As a result, the torreya rose almost overnight.

"Master Lu, do you want to know how much the torreya sells for a catty now?" The shopkeeper looked at Lu Fangzhou mysteriously.

Lu Fangzhou was already stunned and dizzy, he didn't think about it when he heard the shopkeeper's question, so he just nodded: "I think."

The shopkeeper quietly gestured: "100 taels a catty."

"Oh my God." Lu Fangzhou blurted out, leaning back on the table, "Let me faint."

"Master Lu, don't be dizzy. This is only the price in Shengxian County. Torreya torreya is hard to find outside of Shengxian County. The main store of Zhenpinzhai in Yuezhou Prefecture has been broken through the threshold. Thanks to the owner, he tried his best to block everyone. , in exchange for your safety, Young Master Lu."

The shopkeeper's words were quite skillful, and Lu Fangzhou was not a fool. After careful consideration, he understood the meaning of the other party. It was nothing more than that the Torreya torreya has attracted the attention of the world, and soon the market price will be chaotic, and all kinds of moths will come out. The owner of Zhenpinzhai is powerful, and has a way to calm these bastards.

Lu Fangzhou studied economics, the basic characteristics of a market economy: equality, competition, legality and openness.The two characteristics of competition and openness determine that when a high-profit commodity such as Torreya torreya appears, there will be price disorder, malicious competition and other undesirable phenomena.In ancient times, there was no national macro-control, and the torreya is not worthy of the government's public pricing, and it will inevitably become more and more chaotic in the future.

And he, Lu Fangzhou, a scholar with little power, is insignificant in the tide of capital, and he must have difficulty gaining a foothold, and finally suffered a crushing defeat.He needed to find a big tree to protect him, and Zhenpinzhai was a good choice, just as the other party also offered an olive branch.

Lu Fangzhou nodded immediately: "Shopkeeper, I understand. From now on, my torreya will only be sold to Zhenpinzhai."

"Thank you, Master Lu."

"Price..." Lu Fangzhou raised his voice.

The shopkeeper laughed hurriedly: "The rest of the 200 taels a catty, all will be accepted, the previous batch of five catties, 100 taels, how about it?"

Lu Fangzhou’s torreya this time is five tea baskets in total, one basket is about ten catties, and fifty catties of torreya is shelled and dried, and only twenty catties are obtained, and some are consumed during frying, and finally only fifteen catties are left, and five catties are left. A catty of 100 taels is 500 taels, and the remaining ten catties of 200 taels is 2000 taels.

Two thousand five hundred taels of silver! ! !Lu Fangzhou remembered that Yan Yan mentioned that the price of goods in Shengxian County is not high, 500 taels of silver is enough for a family of four to live for a year, and 20 taels of silver can support more than 100 households.

Huge sum of money!

Lu Fangzhou was so happy that his soul drifted away.

Seeing this, the shopkeeper continued: "If Young Master Lu is satisfied with the price, we will agree on this. The owner told me before, and there must be an additional clause in addition to the agreement. Young Master Lu will not be able to fry torreya this year."

"No more frying? Ten catties is enough to sell?" Lu Fangzhou wondered.

The shopkeeper smiled but did not answer: "My boss has always had far-sighted vision, as long as he only needs ten catties, there is a reason for ten catties."

Yes, if it is ten catties, it is a real rare commodity, and the price will inevitably rise. At that time, it will be up to them to sell it by two or by the number of pieces.A profiteer, a big profiteer.

Lu Fangzhou thought about it, but he didn't take it to heart. He has the capital and the audience, and he has nothing, so he can't afford the jealousy.

After signing the sales contract happily, she went out with the bank note in her pocket. She even asked the shopkeeper where she could buy beautiful clothes for girls, jewelry for dressing up, and gadgets for daily play.

One by one the shopkeeper explained the address of the store in detail, and tasted the pros and cons of the goods. In the end, he even bought one and got one free, and told Lu Fangzhou the affordable prices of those items.

Hearing that Lu Fangzhou couldn't help but praise the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper accepted it with a smile, and reminded him before going out: "Remember to go to the bank to exchange the money."

"That's right." Lu Fangzhou slapped his head, he almost took the banknotes as banknotes, and thanked the shopkeeper repeatedly.

The shopkeeper waited for Lu Fangzhou to go far away before returning to the store and walking towards the backyard. After turning around a few times, he arrived at a rather elegant wing room, where Yan Yan was sitting.

The shopkeeper, that is, Tan Xiu in disguise, said with a smile: "Young master, Lu Qing always talks about being a scholar is stupid, I don't think he is stupid at all, he is very clever, he doesn't look like a scholar, but like a philistine businessman."

Yan Yan also smiled, this room is next to the room where Lu Fangzhou was sitting just now, he could hear the conversation between Lu Fangzhou and Lu Fangzhou clearly, he was surprised by Lu Fangzhou's transparency, but thinking about it carefully, Ever since this scholar woke up that day, everything has surprised him. Maybe he is really a master of resurrection.

Then he laughed and said: "You don't know about Lu Qing's habits. If he thinks that a person's personality suits him, he will call him stupid and hurt him."

"That's true." Lu Xiu nodded with a smile, "Shanzi always gets hurt by him."

"Ah."

At this time, twenty miles away, in Xiaotan Village, Lu Shan, who was cleaning Lu Fangzhou's house, suddenly sneezed a few times, and Lu Qing, who was watching, laughed loudly: "Shanzi, you must have done too many bad things. , being scolded behind my back, haha."

"You have done many bad things." Lu Shan glanced at Lu Qing.
