Taking the warehouse back to Datang, Li Erle felt numb

Chapter 69: So rogue, so rogue!

Inside the Lu family.

"Boss, something is wrong!"

"Something went wrong!"

Lu Siqi couldn't help but frown when he saw the waiter running in in a hurry.

"So panicked, what's the etiquette?"

"What can happen?"

At this time, the shopkeepers who came to Lu's house were all numb.

"This morning, those gangsters from Chang'an got into the crowd who came to buy paper and forced us to sell the paper to them!"

"He also said that if he doesn't sell it, there must be something fishy with the family's paper shop and he's just showing off to himself. In order to protect the reputation of the family, we have to sell it!"

Hearing this, Lu Siqi stood up suddenly, his face changed drastically.

"what!"

"No, how much paper did they buy in total?"

A shopkeeper tremblingly replied: "They visited ten paper shops in total and took away ten thousand pieces of paper, either for five cents a piece or ten cents a piece!"

"In that case, we have to sell it. If this really creates a negative impression on the people of the family, then we will be in big trouble."

“But there’s nothing we can do about this loss.”

Ten thousand pieces of paper!
When he heard this number, Lu Siqi almost fainted.

According to normal prices, the value of these papers is three to four thousand guan!
Three or four thousand strings were just gone!

"What did they say?"

Lu Siqi looked at several people angrily.

Several shopkeepers recounted what happened today. Lu Siqi's whole face wrinkled up, and his expression was extremely cold.

Several shopkeepers below also dared not say a word, for fear that their boss would be angry with them.

"It must be the countermeasure Lin Heng came up with!"

Lu Siqi was so angry that he couldn't even care about his aura.

"What should we do now, boss? Can we still sell the paper?"

"Sell!"

Lu Siqi didn't hesitate at all and gritted his teeth.

"Their hooligan behavior is just buying and selling by force. Find the Jinwu Guards tomorrow and let them fight!"

"I don't believe it. These people dare to stand in front of the Jinwu Guards and ask you to rob and sell to them!"

Another day, early morning.

The paper shop opens.

The front of Lujia Paper is still crowded with customers coming to buy.

The shopkeeper looked worried at the moment. He looked around and made sure he didn't see Cheng Hualiang and others, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Should...should be fine?"

He thought so, and then asked the clerk in the store to put the paper.

"Today's special paper price, five cents per piece, sold out."

Before he could finish what he said, the crowd was suddenly torn apart.

"Paper, I want a thousand sheets!"

The shopkeeper said with a smile: "I'm really sorry, these guys have already said they want to buy it, so it shouldn't be your turn."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a Jinwu guard coming over behind Cheng Huailiang, who was on duty here.

"Old Zhao is them! They falsely advertised that paper was sold for five cents a piece, but their paper did not go into the hands of the people at all, but into the hands of their own people!"

"As expected, these people in front of me must be sent by the aristocratic family to buy it, and they will buy all the paper!"

The shopkeeper's face suddenly turned pale.

Jin Wuwei, whom Cheng Huailiang called Lao Zhao, narrowed his eyes at this moment.

"Seller, Chang'an has never allowed this kind of business."

"Is what he said true?"

The shopkeeper immediately explained: "Of course not!"

"These are just the guests who queued up this morning. What does it have to do with the family?" Cheng Huailiang narrowed his eyes at the side.

"Shouldn't we find out if we take it back and check it out?"

"Old Zhao, you don't have to look down on me today. I'm also telling you about the chaos in this family's paper shop. You just need to deal with it impartially."

"This kind of behavior is tantamount to deceiving the people. It is really abominable!"

Jin Wuwei nodded lightly and turned his attention to several people.

"If that's the case, then we need to investigate it carefully."

Cheng Huailiang looked at the shopkeeper with a smile.

If this person is confirmed to be from a noble family, it will be confirmed!
The person in front of me will definitely publicize it. At that time, I'm afraid that the family's reputation will suffer further blows!

For the people of the Yu family, their reputation is the most important thing. They must not be harmed in any way. If it can be solved with money, it must be solved with money!

The shopkeeper immediately came up with a countermeasure.

"This officer, it's all a misunderstanding. What are you talking about?"

"In that case, how about a new rule for our store?"

Cheng Huailiang asked with a smile: "Shopkeeper, what are the job regulations?"

"Each person can only purchase a limited number of [-] copies!"

After all, Zixing, the seven or eight people at the door are all members of aristocratic families, so 200 tickets per person can be recycled.

Cheng Hualiang turned around and looked at Lao Zhao.

"I think it would be better to take it back and check it out."

"A hundred pictures, a hundred pictures!"

Cheng Huailiang said lightly:
"Then other people still can't buy it? Lao Zhao, do you think so?"

"What if these people are all members of aristocratic families? Wouldn't it be a bit of a mystery?"

Jin Wuwei thinks it makes sense.

"Since the aristocratic family plans to control the price of paper at five cents, it should allow more people to enjoy the benefits. Moreover, your aristocratic family is doing business for the common people, so it is naturally better for more people to buy it."

This is fair, and it is definitely not because he knows Cheng Hualiang.

After all, he has been on duty to maintain law and order near this paper bank for the past two days.

The shopkeeper is about to cry. If this is the case, only a small part of what the family can recover will be lost, and the rest will still be at a loss!
Cheng Huailiang started his threats again.

"You see he doesn't want to!"

"He is just doing his own business. People from his family just want to whet the appetite of the people!"

Before Jin Wuwei could speak, the shopkeeper immediately said: "Purchase is limited to 50 tickets per person, and the maximum is 50 tickets. This is the way to go!"

"I think ten is better. No one should buy too many, so that others can still buy them."

"it is good!"

The shopkeeper of this paper shop began to doubt life, and he didn't even know what kind of mood he had in agreeing to this sentence.

So rogue, so hateful!
How could this be so!
His mother is your mother's maidservant!
About half of the other paper shops in Chang'an City were greeted by Cheng Huailiang.

Although he usually doesn't do anything serious, he is always stared at by Jin Wuwei.

His network of contacts is quite broad.

And this in itself is an act to develop Chang'an's business and prevent commercial chaos.

This is the duty of the Jinwu Guards.

And Lin Heng and I looked at Cheng Huailiang's lines of paper.

Cheng Huailiang looked at the batch of papers he brought back and almost laughed like crazy.

"The cheapest piece of Saga's paper costs more than 100 yuan to make, but these are sold in the market for 300 yuan a piece!"

"Yesterday I spent seventy or eighty guan to buy this paper worth several thousand guan!"

"And when Jinwuwei asked the Sijia paper store to offer limited purchases today, you didn't know that the shopkeeper's face turned green and he wanted to strangle me to death, hahaha!"

Lin Heng chuckled and said, "Don't worry, they won't last a few days. Even if they have a big business, they can't bear the daily losses."

"And according to what you said, if half of the aristocratic paper shops in Chang'an City are like this, I'm afraid they will lose more than [-] yuan!"

"In two days, our business will be back."
