Since we wanted to solve the problem of the shop, we had to stay in Kaifeng, so he wrote a letter to Luoyang first, telling them not to worry.

The Chen family’s shop in Kaifeng is a grocery store, named Chen Ji, which mainly deals in silk, porcelain, tea, and some items from Jiangnan.

Usually, sales are not very large, accounting for a small part of the Central Plains share. Under normal circumstances, there is no problem with the annual surplus of thousands of guan, but the actual money sent back is only about a hundred guan.

The store is located in Kaifeng City. Guo Hao has seen it before. This grocery store is actually in good business. Guo Hao had thought before that this store will definitely make money.

Unexpectedly, one day it would fall into his hands. Those people could fool the Chen family, but they couldn't fool him!

Guo Hao came to the door of the store and looked up. It was not changed much from before. It seemed that the change of dynasty had no effect on the place.

I walked into the grocery store, and there was no difference from before. There were various groceries on the shelf, and the price was the market price, which looked normal.

"This young master needs something. We have everything here. You might as well tell me what you need and let me find it for you!"

Xiao Si received Guo Hao. Seeing Guo Hao dressed well, he knew he was a rich man, so he was particularly enthusiastic.

"Do you have tea here? Why didn't I see it?"

"Tea? Yes, isn't this here? It's all top-notch good tea. Which one do you like?"

Following Xiao Si's finger, Guo Hao saw the tea leaves on the shelves, all of which were tea bricks, that is, the tea foam from the past, but there was no new style of stir-fried tea.

"What I want is not this, it's the kind of drink that's soaked and drunk. Why don't you have it here?"

"I've been drinking it in a soak? You guys have never heard of the little ones you said. Why don't you go to another house to have a look?"

Guo Hao was a little surprised when he heard this. In order to popularize tea stir-frying, Zhongyuan and others did not let it go. All three shops delivered the goods, but why didn’t they sell here?

Seeing that Xiao Si didn't look like he was lying, Guo Hao asked casually: "How long have you been here? I haven't even heard of making tea?"

"I have been working here for three years. I have only heard of making tea and ordering tea, but I have never heard of making tea!"

After three years, since he is not a newcomer, he should know the new style of Chen’s tea. He doesn’t know it now, which means that those teas have never been to the grocery store, and there must be someone who makes trouble here.

"No, I'm going to make tea. The biggest grocery store in the city is here. If you don't have it here, it's even more impossible for other places to have it!"

"That's not necessarily!"

At this time, a person came in from outside and saw him dressed in a businessman, looking about forty, and was full of wealth.

"Your Excellency is..."

Guo Hao didn't know who came, but Xiao Si knew him and hurriedly said, "It turned out to be Manager Wang, what wind has blown you!"

"Haha, your kid is not good at this business. If someone wants tea, how can you say there is no? The tea shop is diagonally opposite. Isn't it enough to let him go to me?"

"This... what Manager Wang said was that he almost forgot!"

After hearing the two of them talking like this, if other guests may think it is nothing. As long as you can buy something, you can go anywhere.

But Guo Hao is now Chen Ji's manager, so there is no reason to go to other people's houses if you want to buy things. And Xiao Si is doing it right. He would rather say that there is no, than push the guests to other people's houses.

"This guest official, I just passed by and accidentally heard that you were going to make tea. Where can I have it? Why not come to my place to take a look!"

"Oh? Then go and have a look."

Guo Hao was surprised that he did not sell new tea in large quantities to merchants in Zhongyuan, only his own store, why did other people sell it? Did he get a copycat so quickly?

Guo Hao was not sure about the situation and planned to go and have a look first. After entering Wangji Tea Shop, Guo Hao found that half of the place was the previous tea bricks, while the other half was the new style of stir-fried tea.

"What the young master wants, but this kind of tea?"

Looking at the tea leaves on the shelves, Guo Hao had no expression on his face, but his heart was a little gloomy.

Because the tea on the shelves is the tea from the Chen family in Jiangnan. Although it says Wang Ji, the method of packaging knotted ropes was taught by Guo Hao himself!

Looking at the bags of fried tea that should have appeared in Chen Ji's tea shop, Guo Hao's mood was so good that it would be nice to be able to hold back and not get angry.

"Young Master, your son?"

"Oh, yes, this is what I want. I want all of you!"

When he heard that Guo Hao had asked for it, the shopkeeper was happy at first, and then returned to normal, saying, "This is not possible. This is a new tea from Jiangnan. It is very popular now. The annual output is not much, and only my family has it in the entire man."

"You are bragging, obviously..."

Guo Hao originally wanted to say that they all divided tea in the three stores, and each store was not many, so they could barely open a tea shop together.

Looking at the tea here, apart from the ones on the shelves, I don’t know how much there is in Curry. If what the shopkeeper said is true, then wouldn’t the Chen family’s tea be here?

"Young Master, this is not a brag. If you don't believe it, you can ask. The only one in the whole man, we, Wang Ji, have this new tea. You can't buy it in other places!"

The shopkeeper emphasized again that his face was full of confidence. Guo Hao felt that what he said might be true, and there was something wrong with their tea.

"Okay, then how do you sell this tea?"

"One or two in a coin of money, no bargaining!"

"What? You're always worth one or two taels. You're too dark. Aren't you just a few broken leaves? You're so expensive!"

"Haha, you can't control this. Do you know what rare things mean? Now all the princes and nobles in Daliang City drink my tea, and one or two are always very cheap."

After hearing this, Guo Hao thought he and Chen Lin were already dark enough, but he didn't expect that there was one here that was darker than them.

It was originally a business of my own, but it was inexplicably lost to someone else's house. No wonder Chen Ji has never made any money, and I don't know how much is going on here.

Guo Hao looked at the shopkeeper and wanted to ask him directly where the tea leaves came from, but he was just a customer, just to buy tea leaves. Asking about the source of goods was not appropriate and it could easily cause suspicion.

"Okay, give me two taels first, and I'll buy it if it tastes good."

When he heard that Guo Hao only had two taels, the smile on the shopkeeper's face disappeared. He thought Guo Hao could buy more than two taels, but he only had two taels.

"Waiter, I'll pack tea for the guests. The money has been collected, but I've lost my companion."

After the shopkeeper left, Xiao Si of the tea shop wrapped the tea leaves for Guo Hao. Guo Hao took out two taels of silver and handed it to him, and left the tea shop with the tea leaves.

When he returned to the inn, Guo Hao tasted the tea, which was the mid-range tea in the Chen family. Good tea in Jiangnan was not enough to drink, and the inferior tea was sold to the people, so it was not worth it to worry about.

It was confirmed that it was his own tea. Guo Hao felt that something was wrong with Chen Ji. Chen Lin had never been to Zhongyuan since the accident. One reason was that he was a little scared, and the other was that Jiangnan was really busy.

If Chen Lin doesn't come, Guo Hao himself may not be able to suppress Chen Ji's shopkeeper. If he dares to do this, there will definitely be someone behind him, so Guo Hao has to make a long-term plan.

The next day, Guo Hao came to the grocery store again. This time he sat directly on the chair. Xiao Si saw that it was him again and couldn't help frowning.

"What do you need to order today, this guest?"

"Tea, or new-style tea!"

Xiao Si was a little impatient and said, "Didn't you tell me all of them? We don't have the tea you want, so you'd better go to the opposite side!"

Guo Hao did not answer directly when he heard this, but looked up and said, "Go and call your shopkeeper, and you will say that someone is coming to Jiangnan!"

Hearing the word Jiangnan, Xiao Si's face changed, he looked at Guo Hao carefully, and then ran into the inner room.

A businessman in his early thirties came out. When he saw Guo Hao's eyes rolling, he walked over with a smile and said, "Did this young man come from Jiangnan?"

Guo Hao nodded.

"But what certificates are there?"

Guo Hao took out Chen Lin's token, and Chen Zhi was shocked when he saw the token.

"How do you call me?"

"Chen Jun, Chen Lin is my clan brother!"

Guo Hao pretended to be Chen Xing's son. Anyway, he had never left Jiangnan, so Chen Zhi could not know him.

"It turns out that he is the eldest young master. Chen Zhi is in a hurry to welcome him. I wonder why the eldest young master came to the Central Plains this time, whether to deliver goods or check the accounts?"

Guo Hao looked up at Chen Zhi when he heard this, took out the tea I bought yesterday and said, "This is what I bought from Wangji Tea Shop yesterday.
