He said in a rather bold tone: "If there are any, bring them all the coltsfoot flowers, I bought them all.
I can buy as much as I want at one time, which saves me trouble."
How could a small vendor expect such a good thing?
At that moment, he smiled and said: "Okay! Wait for me, I have a brother who sells these flowers nearby!"
After the vendor finished speaking, he quickly ran not far away and started talking to another vendor.
Gu Nuoer tilted her little head, fluttered her long eyelashes, and looked at all this with her round, watery eyes.
After a while, the small vendor led his brother over, carrying another bag of coltsfoot flowers.
As expected, Gu Zitang paid readily and bought the rest.
In the end, he spent a hundred taels, but he still frowned and said: "It's still a little little. Why don't you help me run errands at the end of the street?"
If there is someone selling coltsfoot flowers over there, and the price doesn’t exceed forty taels per catty, I’ll take them all.”
The street vendor beamed with joy: "It's easy to talk! We brothers are going to run errands to help the eldest young master."
With that said, they turned around and ran towards the end of the street.
Gu Zitang raised his lips and smiled, turned around, and one of his servants came forward.
The boy was dressed in ordinary clothes. He picked up the two large bags of coltsfoot flowers that Gu Zitang had just bought, and wrapped them in another piece of cloth.
Then, the boy carried two large packages of flowers and ran quickly to the end of the street.
His body is so fast, he looks like he can do Qinggong.
Gu Zitang carried Gu Nuoer to the second floor of a nearby teahouse, ordered a private room, and sat down to drink tea leisurely.
Gu Nuoer lay on the chair, her eyes full of confusion: "Second brother, when will you let small money give birth to big money?"
Gu Zitang touched his sister's cute little head: "Don't worry, it will be fine soon."
Sure enough, it only lasts for a stick of incense.
The boy who had just left with the coltsfoot flowers returned to Gu Zitang.
And, he handed over two heavy bags of silver.
Gu Zitang opened it and counted, there were about four hundred taels.
The boy bowed and reported the situation: "The two brothers believed what His Highness said and bought coltsfoot flowers at high prices at the end of the street.
When the subordinates carried the flowers over, they did not raise any suspicion and bought the flowers at a price of twenty-five taels per catty.
At that time, all the vendors at the end of the street heard that a big customer came to the street and wanted to buy this flower at any cost.
So, I still have some coltsfoot flowers, which I sold for thirty-five taels per catty."
Gu Nuoer's eyes widened, as if she understood: "The things that second brother bought at a low price were bought back at a high price by themselves!?"
Gu Zitang gently pinched his sister's chubby face.
He laughed and said: "It's smart, that's what it is. I first raise the price to create demand, and then create a situation on the pretext of urgent collection.
Those who are not cautious will fall into the trap I weaved, so sister, remember, if you are impatient, you will definitely lose money.
If we don't have much time today, I can still collect butterbur flowers for one day, and when tomorrow comes, the price can be as high as one hundred taels per catty."
Gu Zitang pushed all four hundred taels in front of Gu Nuoer: "That's all, the results are quite good now. Since I am taking you out to play today,
There is no need to waste time, Nobao, all the money is yours today, we will return to the palace after spending it."
Gu Nuoer looked at the white money in front of her, and there was no joy on her face.
Instead, she raised her cute little eyebrows, and her chubby face looked worried.
"Second brother, my mother said that there are many poor people in the world. Will we make money from the poor and they will have no money to eat?"
