Chang'an.

There is a huge store on the street, with crowds of people coming and going.

『Why is this so expensive? It's cheaper, cheaper...』

『Sorry, we won't bargain here...』

The newly opened spice shop was busy with sweat, and still maintained a good service attitude. He nodded and smiled and said to the shopkeeper of the cloth shop standing beside him.

Nowadays, as long as the word "spice" is related to the word "spice", the price will almost rise. If you have money, you won't make a bastard. Isn't this silk and silk naturally related to spices? If Buddhism in the Han Dynasty was not yet fully popular, the owner of this cloth shop might think that all the spices in the spice shop are related to him...

The shopkeeper of the cloth shop said dissatisfiedly: "Why can't you bargain? Well? Why can't you bargain? Can everyone bargain? We all bargain... Look at this spice box, the paint on it... are all..."

The shopkeeper of the cloth shop said, rubbing hard and trying to use his nails to pick the paint surface of the paint box. Then he found that the paint surface was really good, and the wood used was hardwood, similar to iron wood, and it was really strong and could not be picked up for a while!

"Your servant, if you really have to work harder, it will really fall off the paint, and you really have to buy it..." The spice shop's work was still smiling, and said with some special heavy pronunciations, "This box is really not cheap... You have really thought about it..."

"Hmph!" The shopkeeper of the cloth shop gritted his teeth and put the spice box. It seemed to be exerting force, but in fact he gently put it back. Then he turned around and walked away, muttering, "Isn't it just a broken fragrance... Oh, Mr. Wei! I haven't seen you for a long time. When did you go to the shop to sit? There are new Shu brocades on the shop, and the patterns are called a masterpiece!"

Wei Kang was stunned for a moment, then said oh with no means, then hurriedly stepped forward and said to the spice shop's work: "I heard that some spices have been received? Is there any Shuangjingyun? Is there any Huahui? All ten... Well, twenty, hey, both of them need thirty sets!"

The spice shop agreed and then shouted loudly: "Shuangjing Yun thirty, Hua Hui thirty! Wei Langjun Tixiang! Be careful to wrap everything better!"

Wei Kang couldn't help but straighten his waist a little, and then the next moment he heard the counter shouting: "Shuangjing Yun is not thirty, only twenty-five left! No, twenty-four! There are only eighteen boxes of Huahuo!"

"There are all! Hurry up!" Wei Kang shouted anxiously, "There are also things that are used for displaying outside, so I want them too!"

"What a pity! Shuangjingyun, Weihuahu is short-selling! It's gone! The next batch will have to wait for another five days!" The busy work in the spice shop shouted loudly.

『Shuangjingyun, Huahu has shorted it!』

"I understand! Sorry, this young master... Shuangjing Yun and Wei Huaju have been sold out..."

"It's not okay to have money... This batch is gone, and the next batch will have to wait for another five days... Sorry, I'm so sorry... it's gone...

Wei Kang let out a breath. Fortunately, it came early, and if he came later, he might have been idle again and had to wait again.

These days, the world is getting worse...

It was quite good in the past few years. You could buy some good things if you have money. But later, you just have money. You still have to have relationships and authority, otherwise you wouldn’t be able to buy some good things at all.

It’s even more outrageous now. We have money and power to catch up. If we come one step late, it will be gone and we have to wait a little longer!

It’s true that the world is going down, but people’s hearts are not as old as ever!

Several spice shops with quick hands and feet carried a special wooden box and came to Wei Kang. They opened it layer by layer to let Wei Kang see. In the big wooden box, some grids were separated by thin white weeds, and then red silk was placed. In the middle were boxes of double-well rhymes and curtains. The smooth paint surface reflected everything around it. The patterns outlined by gold and silver silk brought the unique atmosphere of the Han Dynasty, and also revealed a kind of graceful and luxurious beauty.

Wei Duan quickly counted the number, nodded with satisfaction, and then followed the spice shop's work and had to watch with his own eyes put a few large wooden boxes on his own car to be relieved...

『Langjun Wei is such a big deal…』

"Tsk tsk, this big box is very valuable..."

A spice shop's work came forward and flipped over the cloud cards of "Shuangjingyun" and "Yihuahuo" at the entrance of the store, indicating that they were sold out, which immediately attracted a lot of complaints and lament.

Of course, there is also the owner of the cloth shop who grabbed the spice shop's work that was about to leave after flipping the brand. "I said, I'll buy it now? How many boxes of goods have been received today? Is it only thirty or forty?"

"The guest officer is really good at joking. Thirty or forty, and each type has more than zero!"

The shopkeeper of the cloth shop was stunned and quickly thought in his heart, "Thirty or forty, and more than zero will be added, then it will be at least five hundred, a box of four thousand eight hundred coins, then that's...

"Hiss..." The shopkeeper in the cloth shop took a breath and his eyes almost turned golden.

The people around were also talking, "Will that little bit be so expensive? I saw that a box is only two taels at most, and it is not worth two taels..."

"Do you think it's something to eat? It's two or three taels, that's spice!"

"That doesn't have to be that expensive. How much does it cost to put agarwood for one or two? One thousand dollars, this is four thousand eight!"

"You can do it yourself, it's said that this is a secret that is not passed down. It is made of more than a dozen kinds of incense. It emphasizes a "scent that keeps lingering but not dispersed, both far and near, and both thick and thin are beautiful", which is most suitable for gentlemen and ladies... It's a pity..."

"What a pity? It's so expensive, I think it's really not worth buying..."

"What do you know? Life is nothing more than asking for comfort. You don't buy this or that. What's the point... I just hesitated, but it ended up missing... I waited for the next batch and waited for another five days. It's really worrying..."

『But I think it's too expensive...』

"It's not a problem with this spice that's too expensive... do you understand?"

"Uh? Ah? What do you mean by saying this?!"

The shopkeeper of the cloth shop quietly walked through the crowd, lowered his head, and even felt some regrets from his heart that he was curious about walking to the spice shop today...

The excitement is too great.

This person will be so angry that he compares people. A piece of silk is the most profitable, how much? Even if he is as proud as Mr. Wei, he can only buy three or four at a time...

And how many people can buy silk?

What about those with large sales? Some pieces of linen are only a few dozen or even a dozen profits...

And the spice shop here is a small box that is 4,800 yuan!

Although the shopkeeper of the cloth shop also admitted that no matter from the appearance of the box, from gold and silver wire to the paint surface, to the structure of the box, to the sachet inside, the embroidery, material, and the spice itself, they are all very exquisite, which can be said to be at the top level at the moment, but this price can be said to be the first-class in the world!

The box is beautiful, can the box be eaten or drunk?

Then it's not all added to the price?

If you want to go to that box, the spices will definitely not be that expensive!

Is it because I can't afford the 4,800 yuan?

Not that if you really grit your teeth, you can still take it out, but I feel sorry for you. How much cloth does it take to sell to exchange for a small box of spices? Is it worth it?

Special, no bargaining!

If you can bargain, you can say 50% of the price, yes, 60%...

Or 70% of them, if they really can't do it, 80% of them are not impossible...

snort!

No, it can't be fragrant anymore... No, I can't think about it anymore!

Not worth it!

Not worth buying at all!

The shopkeeper of the cloth shop gritted his teeth and said firmly, then he resolutely looked forward, never willing to look back and take a look again, because the shopkeeper of the cloth shop was afraid that if he stayed for a long time, after watching for a long time, the spices would not only smell the smell, but also penetrated into his heart, liver and lungs...

When I returned to my shop and sat behind the counter, the shopkeeper was stunned for a moment without realizing it, so that when someone came to see the cloth, he didn't notice it.

"Shopkeeper, shopkeeper! Why is this so expensive? It's cheaper, cheaper..."

"Ah? Ah, sorry, we won't bargain here..." The shopkeeper of the cloth shop said subconsciously.

『No bargaining? Hum?╭(╯^╰)╮Hmph!』The customer put down the cloth and turned around and left.

The owner of the cloth shop reacted, "Uh, uh, guest! Don't leave, guest! You offer a price, you give a price..."

For some reason, when the cloth shop owner said this, he suddenly felt like crying...

…?(;′Д｀?)…

General Cavalry Mansion.

Fei Qian received a secret letter sent by Zhang Shi from Hedong.

The letter exposed some things that Pei Mao from Hedong privately reselled his soldiers and made huge profits.

Fei Qian immediately summoned Pang Tong and Xun You to discuss matters.

"As expected..." Pang Tong looked at the letter, then smiled and said, "Pingyang Worker's weapons traveled to the Hedong Line, and the loss was almost a fixed amount... Humph...

Fei Qian laughed twice.

In fact, most of the so-called "drift or not" and "fire consumption" are actually corruption. Just like a capitalist, if he changes his name, he will not show his capital's face?

"Pei is proficient in classical studies and is famous in Hedong. His ancestors have two thousand stones. He also has nine ministers and has a prominent family background..." Xun You said, "I heard that Pei Juguang likes Huang Lao's studies, is indifferent to fame and fortune, opened a library to teach students several times, and has a very high reputation... It is definitely not comparable to ordinary wealthy families..."

Pang Tong nodded and said, "That's true. Therefore, this matter is probably not done by Pei Juguang, at most it is someone in the clan who does it..." Pang Tong sneered. This is all the tradition of the gentry. The main masters do good things, and bad things happen... Uh, the unfilial sons in the clan do it.

Xun You said: "The land in Hedong is bounded by Fen and is divided into north and south. The north is mostly drought, and has been disturbed by the Hu people for a long time. The population is sparse. To the south of the Fen River, it is rich, with both salt and iron, and fertile land. Wenxi Pei family has mostly acres of land, which runs for dozens of miles and has thousands of tenants..."

"Zhang's report to Pei Juguang is actually mostly for temptation..." Pang Tong glanced at Fei Qian, "This kid is still not honest at this time..."

"The son of Zhang's family wanted to clear the Hedong family, and this Hedong family must have been involved with the Pei family..." Xun You said, "If the lord does not investigate it, the matter in Hedong will be left unresolved. If the lord investigates it strictly, the involvement will probably be very wide..."

Pang Tong laughed twice, "The reason why Hedong dares to deduct the exhausted military and armor and make profits from it is undoubtedly because the lord needs Hedong's food and grass... The lord uses soldiers, and the food in Hedong can arrive every night. If it affects Zhuang He's gains, Guanzhong will be somewhat in turmoil... It's a pity, hehe, it's time for fallow farming, is it time to get up to spring... "

"Lingjun said very much." Xun You said, "If the case can be closed before the beginning of spring... it can be tried, but it is probably because it is very involved, which will affect the spring farming... I am afraid it will be a loss..."

Fei Qian sat behind the table and pondered for a moment, "How can you give up halfway if you want to accomplish a big thing?"

『Send the order!』

"Investigate! All persons involved in the case, etc. will be arrested!"

...Convex (英英)...

The snow has stopped.

The weather is getting colder.
