"Then Zhao Chen is really arrogant. Could it be that the emperor will openly oppose us noble families for him?" The shopkeeper of Cui's family in Qinghe said coldly, showing disdain.
Just now, Zhao Chen actually said that he would personally sell chili peppers in the East and West markets tomorrow.
This obviously does not take these aristocratic families seriously.
The five surnames and seven hopes are famous, who dares to underestimate them so much?
"The wood is outstanding in the forest, and the wind will destroy it. Zhao Chen is so arrogant. This time he must let him know the power of our noble family." The old shopkeeper of the Cui family in Boling said in a cold voice.
The night wind blows, making people feel cold.
"What will I do tomorrow?" asked the shopkeeper of Wang's family in Taiyuan.
They can't watch Zhao Chen and sell all the peppers in front of them.
Even if the peppers are picked, if they do nothing, wouldn’t they lose all their faces?
"With Zhao Chen's current position in the hearts of the emperor and the empress, if we directly rival him, we will not be able to take advantage of it."
"I will wait for the past tomorrow. If I have an opportunity, I will definitely make him look good." said the shopkeeper of the Cui family of Boling.
Everyone knew that if they dared to commit any conspiracy against Zhao Chen himself.
Not to mention whether Zhao Chen can be taken down, if he is discovered, the emperor and the queen will be furious.
Take off their anger at the aristocratic family behind them.
This is what these shopkeepers think.
"In addition, since Zhao Chen wants to fight with our families, there is no need to stop the matters of the bookstore."
"If you inform me, no piece of paper will flow into Wangyou Bookstore. If someone secretly prints books for Wangyou Bookstore, it will be our mortal enemy." The shopkeeper of the Cui family in Boling said again.
The Boling Cui family was originally the leader of their aristocratic families.
The shopkeeper of the Boling Cui family said this, so naturally others dare not object.
...
There was nothing to say all night. Uncle Fu got up early in the morning and prepared breakfast for Zhao Chen and Li Ruoshuang with a smile.
Millet porridge and poached eggs, and followed Zhao Chen's previous method and fried several fried dough sticks.
Uncle Fu is very happy!
Zhao Chen and Li Ruoshuang finally slept in the same room.
Even if they did nothing, at least Uncle Fu felt that Li Ruoshuang would not be able to escape the title of this young lady in the future.
Thinking that Zhao Chen is now a marquis of Wannian County and has also established a career.
Now it's almost time to get married.
Uncle Fu stood at the door of Zhao Chen's room and knocked on the door with a smile on his face.
"Young Master, Miss Ruoshuang, it's time to get up. The breakfast is ready." Uncle Fu said with a smile.
"Yaah—"
The door opened and Zhao Chen appeared in front of Uncle Fu.
"Young Master, I've washed up and eaten!"
"Miss Ruoshuang is still resting?"
Uncle Fu smiled.
Zhao Chen naturally knew what Uncle Fu was talking about.
However, the two of them did nothing last night. Zhao Chen slept on the bed, and Li Ruoshuang held the quilt and hit the floor.
"Ruoshuang, I'll get up and have dinner. Lao Cheng and Xiao Qin will come over later, and we have to go out." Zhao Chen and Li Ruoshuang shouted.
Then he saw Li Ruoshuang coming out and saw Uncle Fu standing in front of Zhao Chen with a smile on his face.
Li Ruoshuang glanced at Zhao Chen, said nothing, turned around and went to wash by the well.
"Young Master, is this?" Uncle Fu looked at Zhao Chen with some surprise.
Zhao Chen didn't know what happened to Li Ruoshuang. He shook his head and turned around to wash up.
...
West City.
Chang'an City has two cities, east and west, among which the west market is where other countries trade in Chang'an City.
Its prosperity and complexity of products are much better than things.
Pepper, in the West Market, is also priceless.
"Shopkeeper, can pepper be sold today?" A man walked into the Hu merchant's store and asked the shopkeeper.
"Yes, but this price..." Manager Hu Shang said with a smile, looking at the guests in front of him, as if he had seen a big fat sheep.
"Price? How much is a pound?" the guest asked.
"This pepper, one hundred ounces, one ounce, or one pound, is only one thousand six hundred ounces, which is equivalent to one 6,000 ounces." The shopkeeper said with a smile.
The left hand stretches out one, and the right hand is in the shape of six.
One pound in the Tang Dynasty is sixteen taels.
When the customer heard the price, his face changed and said in a deep voice: "Shopkeeper, don't you know that two days ago, the East and West Markets were selling peppers at the same time."
"They also said that the dried chili they made taste better than your peppers."
"Shopkeeper, you can give me a discount, I will buy one pound today." The customer said in a deep voice, and finally wanted to buy the shopkeeper's pepper.
Two days ago, there were people selling chili peppers in the East and West Markets, but yesterday, I never saw them.
If it weren't for the urgent need of a pound of pepper in the house, he wouldn't have come here in such a hurry.
"Discount? That's impossible!"
"Just as the customer said, the peppers will be sold sooner or later, you can wait." The shopkeeper naturally didn't care about these things and said with a smile.
He had already seen that the man in front of him was eager to buy this pepper.
You don't need to lower the price, you can sell it.
"Aren't you afraid that the price of pepper will plummet and rot in your hands?" The guest frowned, clenched his hands, and felt a little annoyed.
"That's my business. If you don't want to buy customers, don't stay here if you can't afford it, please." Manager Hu Shang sneered, waved his hand, and signaled the customer to get out.
Turning around and walking into the store.
"Okay, I agree..."
"The elders and fellow villagers in Chang'an City, come and take a look."
"Freshly picked green peppers are big and full. Today's special offer is only eight cents per pound."
"You can't buy it and suffer losses, you can't buy it."
"It's really delicious to use it to castrate the tasteless pork."
"Walk by, don't miss it."
"There are also dried red peppers, which taste more pure than peppers. Now they only sell for 100 yuan per catty."
Outside the Hu shop, the customer was about to speak, but Hu shop was showing a successful smile on his face.
Suddenly, I heard a huge shouting sound not far ahead.
Looking at him, he saw many strong men dressed in the people appearing in front of him, carrying a load of blue objects on their shoulders.
The shopkeeper Hu Shang knew that the green thing was the chili that appeared two days ago.
Just this, the shopkeeper Hu Shang didn’t feel any discomfort.
Until he heard the people shouting that there were dried peppers that tasted better than pepper.
Manager Hu Shang was a little panicked.
He had eaten free chili fried pork before, and knew that the green chili tasted better than his pepper.
Now……
"Young master, why don't you give you a 20% discount..." Manager Hu Shang said to the guest, his expression was exactly two people.
"20% off? Keep your own food!" The guest sneered, his eyes falling on the people behind the strong man in front of him, and his pupils shrank slightly.
The guest walked forward after stepping.
Chapter completed!
