Zhan An stared at the city lord's token in a daze and was out of his mind. After a while, he reacted and looked a little excited.

"You mean, the city lord is very interested in fireworks!?"

"Yes."

Zhan'an was worried about the sales of fireworks. As a result, the city lord actually sent someone to come to him and wanted to invite him over.

Obviously, this is just about talking to him about the fireworks business!

"Let's go." Zhan An's eyes flashed with excitement, and he even called the old man to lead the way, and he walked out of the door with a little excited expression.

Yao'er on the bed saw Zhan An still chatting at the door, so she walked over and wanted to see what was going on.

The old man in charge was stunned by the excitement that Zhan An suddenly showed. He looked at the beautiful woman beside Zhan An, raised his head, and signaled Zhan An obscurely.

What this means is:

Why are you leaving directly?

Wouldn't you explain to this girl who was lying on your bed just now?

Zhan An then remembered that there was another Yao'er waiting for him. He turned his head and looked at her and patted her body: "Yao'er, you wait for me at home first, and I'll be back soon."

Yao'er naturally obeyed him and nodded: "Okay."

"Then Mr. Zhan, let's go."

After saying that, the old man followed him turned around and led the way.

...

Walking on the road, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere seemed a little awkward.

In the end, the silence was broken by the old follower.

"Mr. Zhan, is that person just now your wife?"

You should know that the information obtained by the follower shows that Zhan An is just a bachelor and has no companion.

But what happened to the beautiful girl lying on his bed?

"No, she is just an ordinary friend of mine." Zhan An waved his hand, his words were very straightforward, and hesitated without hesitation.

The old man in charge was puzzled secretly.

So, what kind of "ordinary friends" can sleep together?

Then, he nodded thoughtfully, gained a further understanding of Zhan An's character, and did not ask more questions.

Although the information he obtained indicated that Zhan An was an honest man, now the intuitive feeling that Zhan An gave him is a romantic man who likes to be flirting with his wives.

The old man in charge took Zhan An all the way to the city lord's attic.

The top floor can overlook the entire Hongshui City. The city lord sat on the top floor early to make a pot of tea, waiting for Zhan'an.

He was originally staying in Lord Wang's house, but when he saw Lord Wang dragging the bride to the bridal chamber, he went back to the attic and didn't want to have a meal at him.

"Sit down."

Seeing a young man being brought over, he spoke and signaled the young man to sit next to him.

The young man looked at the surrounding environment and sat down.

The city lord picked up the teapot, filled the tea for Zhan'an himself, and handed it over.

"Thank you." Zhan An took the cup and thanked him.

The two tasted tea, and the atmosphere on the scene was very peaceful and quiet.

Putting down the teacup, the city lord stood up and walked to the railing, looking around the entire Hongshui City: "Mr. Zhan, what do you think of our Hongshui City?"

Before coming, Zhan An almost guessed the purpose of the city lord calling him to come.

The city lord simply wants to play the emotional card first and want to give out the fireworks for free. If it fails, he has to give himself a price and want to buy it and monopolize it.

Zhan An raised his lips and replied, "Although it is still prosperous, its outstanding features are not obvious."

"Yes, except for the immortals' blessings gathered near the city, our Hongshui City actually has nothing outstanding..."

Speaking of this, the city lord suddenly turned around and stared at Zhan An seriously: "Mr. Zhan, do you know what effect did that thing called fireworks last night?"

Zhan An was very interesting in his heart: "What effect?"

The city lord's eyes began to become deeper: "When it appeared last night, the sky was gorgeous, and countless people thought it was a miracle of immortals! Even people on the street knelt down in unison to pray for peace!"

Such a magnificent scene, it is not surprising that people in this world would think that it was an immortal who showed his fortune.

"The effect of this object is extremely shocking! Mr. Zhan, think about it, if our Hongshui City becomes the origin of this item, you can imagine that the influence of Hongshui City will increase rapidly!... So, can Mr. Zhan reveal one or two things for the future of Hongshui City?"

It turns out that I want to make a fortune!

Zhan An sneered in his heart, then hesitated for a moment and waved his hand, pretending to be embarrassed: "Master Lord, Zhan An has been developing this item for many years, and finally improved it to its current effect. I'm directly revealed, I'm afraid..."

"Mr. Zhan, please give me a price."

The city lord also found that Zhan An was not stupid, so he directly asked him to make a quote, not intending to continue playing the emotional card.

"No, Lord, Zhan An does not intend to sell the craft."

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, I want to sell the finished product to you at an extremely low price, and then, you can sell it to others through your own channels at an increase in price."

The general meaning is that Zhan'an is sold directly to the city lord as a manufacturer, and then the city lord sells the fireworks he bought at a low price to other places through his own connections and resources.

This is to let the city lord become a middleman to make a difference!

The city lord paused and thought for a while.

“Where is the price?”

No matter how good the effect is or how shocking the scene is, if it is sold too expensively, it will only become a toy for the rich.

Of course, the city lord felt that even if the finished products were only supplied to the rich, it would still be very profitable. At that time, not only would the reputation of Hongshuicheng be promoted, but he would also make a profit from it...

——Why not to do it?

“As for the price…”

Zhan An stretched out a finger.

"A share of ten taels of silver? This is really expensive... but it is understandable. If you want to create such a shocking scene, it is not particularly exaggerated to spend ten taels of silver."

When the fireworks bloom, the world is shining brightly. On some major days, setting off a fireworks can definitely ignite the atmosphere instantly, and the effect is excellent!

Considering the cost and production process, ten taels of silver are actually not particularly difficult to understand.

Unexpectedly, Zhan An actually shook his head and his fingers remained unchanged.

"Not ten taels? Is it one tael!?"

At this point, the city lord was finally moved.

If it is so cheap, then there is no need to worry about the sales of these fireworks!

Moreover, if he sells it to himself at a price of one or two, will Zhan An still make a profit?

Sure enough, Zhan An shook his head again and said, "It's not one, it's one hundred."

"One hundred silver!? That young man doesn't have to sell it anymore, no one can afford it!"

Feeling the city lord's gloomy face, Zhan An calmly drank a sip of tea, and then spoke slowly, extremely comfortable.

"Not silver, but copper coins."

City Lord: "…"
