The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

How could the old man be so bad?

If he said that it was his evil servants who did it and it had nothing to do with him, who would believe it?

If the servants below did not have the instructions from their masters, how dare they be so arrogant and bring disaster to the village?

If the masters above had good ways to control their subordinates and were very strict in discipline, would such a thing happen to the manor below?

No matter what, what kind of masters will educate what kind of servants, Pei Ji cannot say that he has no responsibility at all. No matter how much he says, it is just to shirk his responsibility and cannot be believed.

If the master does not intend to take over other people's land, why would the subordinates rush to do such things?

If the two sides fight, people will die. Why do they risk their lives?

Not long after, the current shopkeeper came upstairs.

Came to the tea room.

"Your Majesty." The shopkeeper saluted Li Yuan, and then bowed to Li Chengqian and others in turn. Finally, she bowed to her husband.

"Deyuan, sit down." Li Fu said to the shopkeeper, and then introduced to Li Yuan: "Uncle, this is the current shopkeeper Zhang, who was brought up by the original shopkeeper Zhao. Now this shop in the East Market of Chang'an City is under his management."

Li Yuan nodded.

Zhang Deyuan was flattered. He was just a merchant and a servant in the Jingyang King's house. How could he show his face in front of the emperor again? This was really a great honor.

"Deyuan, you are now the shopkeeper. You know that the best tea in the shop is the first-class tea." Li Fu said, "How is the first-class tea selling recently?"

"My Lord, the tea shop is more prosperous than before, and there are more customers. Nearly one-third of the customers buy first-class tea. As the New Year is coming, everyone in Chang'an is buying New Year goods, some for their own use, and some for gifts. Therefore, our first-class tea is not worried about selling. Based on the experience of the New Year, a large batch of goods was transferred from the tea house before the New Year. It is estimated that it can support the arrival of the second batch of goods after the New Year."

At present, the inventory in the shop is sufficient.

After having experience, the shop has never been out of goods.

"First-class tea... Deyuan, do you think that if there is a special tea in the shop, the price is particularly expensive, will anyone rush to buy it?" Li Fu asked.

"Special tea?" Zhang Deyuan was stunned.

There has never been a precedent for selling premium tea in the shop.

If there is, what is the price of this premium tea? I heard that this premium tea is supplied to the palace.

Oh, my master also drinks premium tea.

Then this is also specially enjoyed by the royal family, why is it suddenly sold in the shop?

"Yes, premium tea, gift box." Li Fu smiled and said, "Of course it has to have a reputation, but it is not sold openly. There are only ten gift boxes of premium tea, which are approved by the emperor and his majesty, and are limited."

"Hiss~~"

Zhang Deyuan took a breath.

Premium tea, limited edition, ten sets.

If it is not sold at a sky-high price, it will not live up to these three words.

"This, this... This will definitely attract people in Chang'an City to fight for it." Zhang Deyuan said with his eyes wide open.

Having run the shop for such a long time, no matter how ignorant he was before, he has a broader vision now and knows that Chang'an City is not short of rich people.

Those wealthy families are so rich that once the special tea comes out, whoever gets it will be a symbol of status and wealth!

They are not afraid of not having money, but they are afraid of not being able to take out the money in their pockets with good things!

Once this special tea comes out, those wealthy families in Chang'an City will go crazy?

Moreover! Now is the New Year!

How many people are counting on this opportunity to move around, build relationships, and do things!

If you are really willing to spend a lot of money, get the special tea, and give it away, what can't you do? What, do you want to be the emperor? Only this thing can't be done.

"That's right, how should the special tea be priced? There is no precedent for this." Zhang Deyuan said.

Li Fu smiled mysteriously.

"Deyuan, this gift box of premium tea is not priced. I plan to hold an auction." Li Fu said.

"Auction?" Zhang Deyuan was puzzled.

"It's just to gather everyone together and hold a banquet. Everyone will bid and the highest bidder will win." Li Fu said: "Each box is priced in this way, just to tell everyone that premium tea is priceless and precious! Opportunities are precious! If you miss it for a day, you may not have this opportunity or this thing even if you wait for several years." Li Fu said.

The premium tea auction is coming soon, big dogs, get excited! !

Zhang Deyuan's eyes lit up when he heard it.

What a good idea.

What price should I set?, let those rich families bid for themselves!

Why not bid the highest price?

There are so many rich families in Chang'an City, and there are only ten gift boxes of special tea.

How high the price can be torn depends on them. If ten sets of boxes are sold in public, those who can't buy them can only blame themselves for not being as rich as others.

In the tea shop, no one is offended, and there is no situation of first come first served and endless competition.

Good idea, really good idea!!!

"Master, when is the auction you mentioned going to be held?" Zhang Deyuan asked.

"The 28th day of the twelfth lunar month." Li Fu set a date: "The auction will be held at the teahouse opposite. I will go there later and tell the shopkeeper opposite that the tea shop will be closed from this afternoon, and the venue will be cleaned up to prepare for the auction."

"On the day of the auction, you will also go there and host the auction with the shopkeeper over there." Li Fu said: "Before that, there are only two days left. You must publicize the auction and the special tea gift box as much as possible. Do you understand?"

Hearing this, Zhang Deyuan stood up and bowed his hands in response.

"Don't worry, my lord. I will take care of spreading the news." Zhang Deyuan said, "I have another idea."

"Go ahead."

"My lord said that there are only ten sets of special tea. If we want to hold an auction, then not everyone can participate in the auction of such a precious treasure. I think we should issue invitations and only invite those who have the ability to bid. In addition, receiving an invitation can also represent a symbol of status." Zhang Deyuan said, "This auction should be controlled to a certain extent."

Li Fu was thinking, and Li Yuan nodded slightly.

That's right. Not everyone can come in and watch the ceremony casually, otherwise it will be a mess.

The invitations were sent out, and the people invited were all well-known figures in Chang'an City. When the time comes, they can bid the price and will not be unable to pay.
