Nuclear Warlord

Chapter 81

In the blink of an eye, someone is willing to spend more than 3000 taels to buy 3000 boxes of small imperial tea.

However, the shopkeeper of Yuchafang shook his head: "I'm sorry Master Zhu, our Yuchafang can only sell you five boxes at a time!"

Master Zhu's face darkened, and he said angrily: "Are you afraid that I won't be able to pay the money? Or do you want to raise prices for rare goods?"

The onlookers were also puzzled.

How can there be any reason to push out the door-to-door business?
What's more, the other party is still a dignitary like Master Zhu of Yushitai, and he is still unwilling to sell it. Isn't this offending the other party?

The shopkeeper quickly shook his head and explained: "Master Zhu, you misunderstood. Just now Xiaomin also said that this little imperial tea is picked by the mouth every morning with beautiful virgins. The production process is extremely cumbersome and the output is extremely low. The number of teahouses is limited, if you buy so much by yourself, what will other people do?"

The Yushitai was in charge of picketing, impeaching officials, and rectifying the discipline. Mr. Zhu couldn't buy and sell in front of everyone, so he could only nod his head.

"Forget it, then buy five boxes and forget it."

But I was thinking in my heart, the big deal is that the housekeeper at home will buy it again, so there is no need to do such a thing that falls into the trap of others.

"Okay, my lord, please wait a moment!"

Soon, the waiter in the shop brought five boxes of small imperial tea.

After the money and goods were cleared, Master Zhu left contentedly, and then the onlookers rushed forward.

"Give me a box too!"

"I want two boxes!"

Soon, the news that the imperial tea house was selling the imperial tea that His Majesty drank was spread among the elite circles in the capital, causing an uproar all of a sudden.

In particular, even Master Zhu of Yushitai declared in public that this is indeed the high-quality tea that His Majesty rewarded and drank in the early court, which is far superior to other tea soups countless times, and this is a good tea that even His Majesty praised. During this period, a large number of housekeepers came to buy, and the surrounding area of ​​Yuchafang was filled with water.

The thoughtful merchants, after learning that the quantity of Little Royal Tea is limited, sent people to buy and stock up, and started to hype it.

At the same time, the small royal tea is also regarded as the best gift at the moment, and many people who need to make connections come to buy it one after another.

After all, it is imperial tea that only His Majesty can drink, what an honor to be able to drink it, it is very honorable as a gift, and the recipient is also very happy.

For a time, Little Royal Tea became popular in the capital.

It's a pity that because of the limited quantity, it was declared sold out after only half a day, and the Royal Tea House had to close its doors, making those who didn't buy it beat their chests and feet.

Many people came to the entrance of Yuchafang and expressed their willingness to buy at a high price. Unfortunately, the shopkeeper said that the small Yucha has been completely sold out, let alone 160 six taels, even if it is 660 six taels, they will not be able to buy it, and they will have to wait until the next purchase. get.

As for when the next purchase will be, the shopkeeper of Yuchafang also said that he doesn't know.

It is precisely because the Little Royal Tea was sold out within half a day, and the follow-up resale date is nowhere in sight, the price of the Little Royal Tea rose again and again in the black market, and quickly more than doubled, and there was no market for the price. .

Gao Dali took the silver taels he earned from one day's business, and ran to the palace with excitement on his face, to meet Emperor Qianwu.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

"Big happy event! Great happy event!"

"Little imperial tea is selling very well..."

Emperor Ganwu, who was reviewing the memorial, saw that Gao Dali's face was flushed and his breathing was heavy. He was in a bad mood because of the empty treasury, and his face suddenly sank.

"Gao Dali, you have been with me for so many years as an old man, why did you lose your composure? No matter how good the little imperial tea is, it shouldn't be like this, you really let me down so much!"

Hearing this, Gao Dali was stunned, took a deep breath to suppress the excitement in his heart, bowed and said: "Your Majesty taught me that it was the old servant who lost his composure, so please punish him!"

Emperor Ganwu continued to bow his head to review the memorial, and said indifferently: "I think you have been with me for many years, so you will be exempted from punishment this time. Tell me now, how many boxes have you sold?"

As soon as the words fell, Gao Dali quickly replied: "Your Majesty, they are all sold out!"

Emperor Ganwu was taken aback: "What? All sold out?!"

Gao Dali's expression became excited again, and he said loudly: "Yes, Your Majesty, the two thousand boxes of small imperial teas are all sold out, and after deducting the cost, I earned 23 taels of silver in one afternoon!"

Snapped!
The imperial brush in Emperor Qianwu's hand fell and hit the memorial, splashing a piece of ink, and even splashing on the dragon robe.

But at this moment, he didn't understand, even though he was on the throne all the year round, he had already cultivated a calm state of mind, so he couldn't help exclaiming at this moment: "I didn't hear clearly, what did you say!?"

"All the small imperial teas were sold out, and they made a profit of 23 taels. Many people fought to buy the tea leaves, and even alarmed Dali Temple!"

After being confirmed again, Emperor Ganwu stood up abruptly, with an excited expression on his face, and walked around the room quickly.

"Two thousand boxes were sold out in half a day!"

"In half a day, I earned 23 taels of silver, which is beyond my belief!"

"It's a loss, it's a big loss! If I had known this, I should have brought more goods!"

"Oh my god, this money is too easy to earn!?"

If the courtiers saw Emperor Qianwu's expression at this time, his jaw would definitely drop in shock.

Who would have thought that Emperor Qianwu, who had been fighting in the battlefield for half his life and never changed his face before the collapse of Mount Tai, would lose his composure like this?
But Gao Dali complained in his heart.

Your Majesty, Your Majesty, just now you scolded the old slave for losing his temper, but now you are even worse than the old slave!

This reprimand is really wronged!
After a short period of excitement, Emperor Qianwu gradually regained his composure, and his expression became cold: "Gao Dali, who bought these tea leaves?"

Gao Dali knew what he was thinking, bowed and said, "Half of them were bought by the court ministers, and half of them were bought by merchants."

Li Changfeng said before that the tea at this price is mainly sold to the rich and powerful, so he played such a show in the morning court today.

Even though he was mentally prepared and knew that the ministers of the court and the central government were quite rich, but now he heard that such expensive tea was sold out in just half a day, he couldn't help being furious in his heart.

The national treasury is empty, and the people of the Li people live in extreme poverty. These court officials who usually claim to be clean and honest are so rich!

With their salaries, how could they afford such expensive tea?
Where did their money come from?

Did it come from corruption?

If the officials are rich and the people are poor, the rich people's wine and meat stinks, the roads have frozen bones, etc., if it is too serious, it will shake the foundation of the country!
Involuntary murderous intent burst out in Emperor Qianwu's eyes.

But then gradually hidden.

After all, there are too many officials and dignitaries involved, it is not acceptable to act rashly, otherwise it will cause a mutiny.

Moreover, when he first purchased the goods, Li Changfeng gave a discount. The purchase price was 10 taels and two thousand boxes, which was a huge difference of 110 taels per box. There is no plan to return it. In fact, the real cost is not 5000 taels, but it is clearly only 10 taels.

That is to say, I made a total of 32 taels this time, which is nearly 7000 taels.

The internal money suddenly filled up, and it was almost comparable to the national treasury.

After much deliberation, I can only temporarily turn a blind eye.

Gathering his thoughts, Emperor Qianwu gave an order: "Hurry up and send someone to Baishi City, no matter how many little imperial teas there are from the Ninth Prince, bring them to me."

Gao Dali bowed and said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the old slave has already sent someone on the way here, and there will be more small imperial teas for sale soon."

"Well, you did a good job on this errand!"

Emperor Ganwu felt better again.

Nearly 33 taels of silver!

Since he won the world, the internal money has never been so rich.

Then I thought of the refined salt that I brought at the same time.

Even tea can make money like this, so how much money can you make with refined salt that is far superior to official salt?

You know, not everyone likes to drink tea, and whether you drink it or not has little effect.

But salt is different. No matter who it is, it has to be eaten every day, and the consumption is very large.

The business opportunities contained in this made Emperor Qianwu feel a little excited.

However, the matter of selling refined salt cannot be started immediately, it needs to be done step by step. After all, there are too many aspects involved, and even he, the emperor, cannot be done in one step.

But another very profitable business can be started immediately!
