Since the founding of the Dayi Dynasty by Emperor Taizong, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce have both been given equal importance, corvee taxes have been lightened and taxes have been lightened, and the common people have basically enough food and clothing. As the capital is the capital, it can be said that they are extremely wealthy.

In addition, Zheng Qiyan pacified half of southern Xinjiang, which brought five years of revenue to the treasury, so this year's visit to Beijing was far more lively than in previous years.

The cold winter months cannot stop people going to Beijing to go shopping. The ten-mile long street is crowded with people, and the dry goods stores in the north and south, cake and snack shops, clothing stores, women's jewelry stores, etc. are all crowded.

Qiao Gongfang specially picked a sunny day and sent out more than a dozen ox carts with great fanfare. The first one carried a large peacock in amber, which immediately attracted countless people who came to Beijing to buy new year's goods.

The cattle team was very coquettish and made a high-profile appearance. The people at the foot of the imperial city were very well-behaved. They gathered around to watch the excitement and asked questions.

The men who drive the cattle carts are very good at things. While controlling the cattle to move forward slowly, they loudly advertise: "Welcome the New Year and celebrate the harvest! Jinxiu Pavilion has many discounts, including various amber hairpins, as low as one tael of silver."

!There is also a surprise blind box, which only costs 10 taels of silver. A lucky customer can get goods worth hundreds of taels!”

"What is a blind box?" the people below asked loudly.

"A blind box means you can't see what's inside, so you choose one based on luck. If you're not lucky, the thing inside will be worth ten taels of silver. If you're lucky, you'll get one worth twenty taels, thirty taels, or even one hundred taels.

We have everything!" The man replied loudly as if he was in a rush.

Jin Che was proud of the artificial amber method provided by Jintong. His inspiration was like the endless flow of the surging river, and like the out-of-control flooding of the Yellow River. He felt like he was getting blood every day. Hairpins, hairpins, walking sticks, all kinds of

Chains, fan pendants, ornaments...there is nothing you can't think of, and there is nothing he can't make! Moreover, nothing is repeated, so the whole trip to Beijing instantly became exciting again.

The first batch of amber products that Jintong brought out for sale at Jinxiu Pavilion were all ordinary amber products. The Aquan family's skill in making dried flowers and even insects, birds, butterflies and other large and small animals can be preserved for at least several decades without deterioration.

.The flowers, birds, and cordyceps contained in the amber were basically made by his hands.

This little guy's brain is flexible and easy to use. He can actually use bird feathers, animal skins, petals and other objects to piece together some legendary exotic flowers, rare plants and animals, as if they were made from nature, without any trace of patchwork, which amazed Jintong.

A Quan even used the fur of other cats to make an amber cat ornament that was 90% similar to Jin Dabi and gave it to Jin Tong. Jin Tong was so angry that Jin Dabi almost pounced on him and scratched A Quan's face.

Since Aquan had such ingenious craftsmanship, Jintong simply painted a batch of flowers unique to the 21st century. Aquan happily took back the skillful workshop and continued to work hard. And for these rare objects, Jintong planned to

Store it first, then come up with an idea to hype it up later and sell it at a high price.

Jinxiu Pavilion has changed its usual style. This time, the amber jewelry is large in quantity and affordable. All kinds of amber jewelry start from the lowest one tael of silver to the most expensive only sixty-eight taels of silver.

There is also the blind box, which only supplies 100 pieces every day, worth 10 taels of silver each. Every day, within a quarter of an hour of being put out, they are all robbed.

Although the box is only made of ordinary camphor wood, the carvings on the outside are exquisite and unique. If nothing else, it would be great to take home as a jewelry box.

The worst thing in the box is two small things. Ten taels of silver is not a loss at all, not to mention that for those who are lucky enough, a whole set of amber jewelry can be found!

What is even more satisfying is that the flowers, birds, butterflies, etc. contained in all amber products are all unique, and there is absolutely no fear of being the same as others. As a result, countless people rushed to buy, and people were sitting next to each other in the Jinxiu Pavilion. Twenty-four

Private rooms are in short supply.

Even Prince Qing disguised himself as a wealthy young man and went to buy a set of "Brotherly Love" fan pendants. He spent another 120 taels and bought a cute squirrel chewing pine nuts as a gift to Concubine Chen.

When Hu Chao, the Marquis of Xiping, learned about this, he almost spit blood into the sky.

The Niutou Village Winery in Jintong is kept airtight, but Qiao Workshop is different! These days, there are strict hierarchies, and there are regulations on what materials and forms of jewelry a person of any status can wear.

For example, even though those musicians and actresses from lowly backgrounds were not short of money, strictly speaking, they were not allowed to wear gold, silver, and jade jewelry. Therefore, even the top ladies of Dayi Dynasty were basically decorated with hairpins, silk flowers, and silk flowers.

Therefore, various handicraft workshops are basically not very defensive, and they are not afraid that their own styles and patterns will be copied by others. Craftsmen with exquisite craftsmanship are rare, and even if others want to imitate, they may not be able to imitate them well!

Hu Chao looked up to the sky and sighed: If he had sent someone to Jintong's "Qiao Workshop" early in the morning to learn this method of making amber, would he still have had to spend so much effort to go to Niutou Village to steal the brewing recipe?

This Amber Jintong can make so much in one go, so it is naturally much easier than making wine!

The piece of "peacock amber" that was no smaller than the "crane amber" was only six thousand eight hundred taels of silver. As soon as it arrived at the entrance of Jinxiu Pavilion, it was seen by Mrs. Jiang who "just happened to be" shopping for jewelry in Jinxiu Pavilion, and she bought it.

It was sent to the palace for the queen to enjoy.

If Hu Chao hadn't realized at this time that he was tricked into his grandma's house by Jintong, then he wouldn't have to mess around. Five million silver and six thousand eight hundred taels of silver! The difference between cloud and mud, the difference between heaven and earth!

Hu Chao hid in the study and sulked, feeling as frustrated as a trapped animal that was not satisfied with its desires.

Since Li Wei compensated him for the five million taels of silver, he has been reluctant to use it. Without the shipping business, the Marquis of Xiping could only rely on a dozen Zhuangzi and Penglaidu to support his dignity.

A year's journey to Penglai can bring tens of millions of taels of net profit to the Xiping Palace. But now, Jintong's Xiangrui House has launched several exquisite wines, and many nobles in Beijing are flocking to them. At least 30% of the customers have become Xiangrui

Loyal customers of Lou. This is not just a 30% loss in profits every year. Hu Chao has to pay almost the same cost and reduce customers, which equals an increase in costs. This year’s accounting calculation shows that the profit is more than 40% less than last year. How can Hu Chao not become angry?

?

These five million taels of silver were the final bottom line. Now, Jintong told him with facts: the bottom line that he spent all his money on was actually worth six thousand eight hundred taels of silver!

Hu Chao's biggest treasure was on Concubine Chen, and he had a flirting relationship with Prince Huai and Prince Qi. To maintain these relationships, he relied on money. Now, he could only control himself not to think about Jintong.
