In the early morning, when the stars in the sky have not receded, they are still hanging in the sky, blinking their lovely eyes, spreading starlight all over the earth, making the earth shine with starlight, there are more than a dozen extended carriages that are already ready to go, all of them are full.
, six huge round wooden barrels filled with liquor and with a capacity of 100 kilograms, like a big mountain, are staying there calmly, waiting for the order to set off. As long as the order is given, they will erupt like a volcano.
Run away to complete the mission assigned by adults.
In a hall of the Lord's Mansion, hundreds of big men wearing leather armor and holding sharp weapons stood there like statues, motionless. After a while, steward Hudson, who was wearing a noble feather uniform, came here to see.
Looking at these hundreds of unmoving men, he couldn't help but secretly praise in his heart, "It's really good. General Bai Qi's ability to run the army is really beyond compare." Thinking of the tasks of these people, Hudson couldn't help but move out.
Smile harmoniously, and then say "Let's go" seriously.
As soon as the sound fell, hundreds of big men gave a military salute to Hudson, then ran out quickly and orderly, boarded the carriage, and headed towards the four big men in the city.
After Li Jiawang had breakfast, he took Maya and the housekeeper Hudson to the living room of the Lord's Mansion. The living room was very large, but the decoration was simple. Only a layer of white plaster was painted around the hall, and the sky was painted.
Four magic lamps were hung on the tiles to provide sufficient light for the living room. There were two rows of chairs in the living room, and there was a small table next to each chair. There was a cup of hot tea on the table. When Li Jiawang came in,
It was already filled with the owners of all the taverns in the territory. They were drinking tea and guessing why Li Jiawang invited them here!
They all received invitations from the Lord's Mansion yesterday afternoon, asking them to come over today to discuss matters. After receiving the invitations, they couldn't help but become happy. For businessmen like them who have little status, they can
Currying favor with the lord will bring them huge benefits. Therefore, in order to leave a good impression on Li Jiawang, they all accepted the appointment and came here early. At the same time, they were prepared to climb up to the lord even if they were bleeding heavily.
Preparation of the big ship.
After Li Jiawang finished his duties, he smiled and said to the tavern owner, "How is your business lately? Have you made a lot of money?"
"Thanks to the lord, my lord has used millions of laborers to build a magnificent city this month. We are so impressed. Due to your generosity, these laborers have been paid generously and come to our taverns one after another.
While drinking, the construction of the big city has attracted a large number of adventurers and mercenaries. Therefore, the business of our tavern is very hot this month. This month’s income has almost caught up with the income of the past year. Now we
We are considering recruiting some manpower to expand production!" A slightly older middle-aged man said happily on behalf of the tavern owner, while looking at Li Jiawang with a mixture of admiration and gratitude.
"That's good. I called you here today to give you a fortune. As for whether you can seize this opportunity, it depends on your attitude and ability." Li Jiawang said with a smile, and clapped his hands at the same time.
A row of neatly dressed maids came in carrying a jug of wine and several glasses, and poured each of them a glass of white wine worth two ounces.
"You are all wine connoisseurs, why don't you try this glass of wine and see how it tastes?" After the servant girl retreated, Li Jiawang said, and at the same time he raised the liquor in his hand, signaled to everyone, and drank it all.
When the servant poured the wine, everyone smelled the mellow aroma of the wine and felt that it was a good wine. At the same time, they roughly guessed the reason for the great wealth Li Jiawang said, but they didn't dare to confirm it yet.
.When Li Jiawang drank the wine in one gulp, everyone also hurriedly drank the wine in the cup. As soon as the two taels of white wine entered their stomachs, they suddenly felt a hot l-ng, spurting out from their mouths, and everyone couldn't help but
He sighed "What a strong wine" and felt it carefully.
Seeing the feeling that everyone was still tasting the liquor, Li Jiawang did not rush him. He just looked at the people with a smile and thought in his heart about how to distribute the benefits so that they would be willing to use them for his own use.
After the hundreds of tavern owners in the hall came to their senses, they began to discuss quietly with familiar old friends around them. In the end, it was the slightly older middle-aged man who asked Li Jiawang on behalf of the hundreds of tavern owners.
"I wonder if your Excellency got this wine from somewhere else, or did you brew it yourself?"
“Made by myself.”
After getting Li Jiawang's answer, he then asked, "Your Excellency, you asked me to come here, probably for the sales of this new wine! But since this wine can match the quality of famous wines on the mainland, Your Excellency, you don't have to worry about sales! I don't know, Sir, we
Come here, I don’t understand what you are talking about, please let me know.”
Li Jiawang did not answer directly but asked instead, "What price do you think is appropriate for this wine?"
"One hundred gold coins per pound"
"One hundred and fifty gold coins per pound"
"Two hundred gold coins per pound"
",,,,"
When Li Jiawang asked Old John (the middle-aged representative), Old John said, "I think if you sell a large amount, you can sell it for one hundred gold coins per catty. If you only sell a small amount, you can sell it for five hundred gold coins or even a pound."
If you have thousands of gold coins per catty, someone will buy it. However, if you want me to wait for the agent to sell, we can give you at most one hundred gold coins per catty. After all, we also have to earn part of the profit, and at the same time we have to open up various relationships.
It requires a lot of money.”
Hearing what they said, Li Jiawang couldn't help but smile. He originally planned to sell it to them for ten gold coins per catty, but now he suddenly wanted to sell it to them for one hundred gold coins per catty. This is a tenfold price difference! But when he thought about it,
For his original purpose, he suppressed the urge to raise the price and said, "I am going to sell it to you at ten gold coins per pound. I wonder if you will be satisfied."
People in the hall were immediately surprised by the price quoted by Li Jiawang, and opened their mouths in surprise. They wondered if the lord had eaten the wrong food and had gone crazy. Otherwise, how could he have said such an incredibly low price, ten gold coins?
One pound, although it can be considered a high-end wine, it is still very different from the top mainland famous wines, let alone this new variety of mainland famous wines.
If they have not tasted this kind of wine, they can still accept this price, and even think it is expensive. However, after they tasted it, they found that this is the level of the top wine in mainland China. How could they not be surprised and incomprehensible at this price?
Ah! You must know that all the top fine wines in the mainland cost more than 500 gold coins per pound. Even if they are so expensive, the supply exceeds the demand, let alone this new variety. Such a low price makes everyone feel seriously uneasy.
I thought there would be some conspiracy, so I didn’t dare to agree.dd
