The whole city of Chang'an is crazy about highland barley wine. Anyone who can get a bottle of highland barley wine is worthy of bragging and is doubly proud!
Many people even showed off their purchased highland barley wine to their friends in restaurants, just to show others the Jiulong ice jade glass bottle.
People don't care about the wine, they care about the bottle. Many people want to buy that bottle to take home and collect. This is a bottle that has been sold at a high price. It is valuable and indeed beautiful. It will be a good thing if you can buy it.
Many people want to buy highland barley wine, which has resulted in unprecedented sales of highland barley wine.
Nowadays, there are only two ways to sell highland barley wine. One is to queue up for reservation. A limited number of ten bottles are sold every day. Each bottle is priced at ten gold, which is a thousand taels of silver. Such a price that is close to the people is simply exciting.
You must know that the price of a bottle of highland barley wine has now reached 500 gold, which is 50,000 taels of silver. As long as you can buy highland barley wine, congratulations, you will directly reach the pinnacle of life, and you can earn tens of thousands of taels by changing hands. Ordinary people would never be able to earn so much money in a few lifetimes, and even people from big families would be jealous of it.
So many people queue up outside Yanlai Tower late at night, waiting to get rich overnight.
The second way is to exchange highland barley for highland barley wine as mentioned before. Now Luo Zhang mentioned that two thousand kilograms of highland barley can be exchanged for one bottle. Highland barley is useless to people from big families. The reason why they hoarded so much highland barley before is because The best thing is to get stuck in Luo Zhang, and finally be able to make a profit and sell it at a high price.
However, Luo Zhang disrupted their plan by playing cards unconventionally. They originally thought that they would lose money to his grandma's family, but unexpectedly, Luo Zhang actually used Jiulong ice jade glazed bottles to hold highland barley wine. This exchange was beneficial to them. Not only did you not lose money, but you made a lot of money!
How much does two thousand pounds of highland barley cost? Based on the current price that has been speculated to be seventy times higher, it is only a few dozen gold. However, a bottle of highland barley wine now costs five hundred gold, so it is still a profit no matter how you calculate it.
In their view, even if Luo Zhang raises the price to exchange five thousand kilograms of highland barley for a Jiulong ice jade glass bottle, they will still make a profit, which is the same as picking up money for nothing.
Bottles of wine were redeemed by members of the big family, and piles of highland barley were taken into the warehouse by Luo Zhang.
In just a few days, the warehouse owned by Luo Zhang was filled with highland barley, to the point where it could no longer be piled up!
Luo Zhang didn't say anything about this. He was still buying a large amount of highland barley. If there was no warehouse, he would buy a warehouse to stack it!
Zhao Tianhu was very confused when he saw what Luo Zhang was doing. He was anxious that Luo Zhang was really losing money by doing this. He wanted to remind Luo Zhang, but he didn't know what to say!
Shouldn't you tell Luo Zhang that it's wrong of you to take out the bottle and sell it? Why use Jiulong ice jade glass bottles to bottle highland barley wine?
It’s not just Zhao Tianhu who can’t understand, many people can’t understand what Luo Zhang is doing!
Many members of the big family exchanged highland barley for highland barley wine. They were laughing their heads off. They secretly scolded Luo Zhang for being so stupid that he actually did such a loss-making business.
The big family members cheered because they had hoarded a lot of highland barley wine, and everyone was thinking about how much the wine would be worth.
Some people are happy, while others are worried. Those who are happy are not only those in the big families, but also the Tubo people. They did not expect that highland barley could be so valuable. After it was shipped, it was sold out at dozens of times the original price, and the supply was still in short supply! This greatly irritated the Tubo people, and at the same time they also hated Lu Dongzan. He didn't tell them about such a good thing, which was really heartbreaking!
Since the highland barley was gone, it was natural to transport more. One by one, fast horses headed towards Tubo to report the news that highland barley sales were booming and of huge value.
Following closely behind were cartloads of gold and silver treasures, all of which were obtained from selling highland barley.
The big landowners and high priests don't need to buy anything in Chang'an. What they value is gold and silver. This is their wealth.
This is a happy person. There are happy people and there are sad people.
In Xue Yantuo's embassy, Xue Yantuo's envoy was smashing things. He had to smash things because he was angry.
Xue Yantuo spent thousands of gold to take the Jiulong ice jade glass vase, but what about now?
The streets are full of Jiulong Ice Jade Glass Bottles, and the rate is still increasing at ten bottles per day. This does not include the Jiulong Ice Jade Glass Bottles hoarded by people from big families. If this is included, That number is terrifying.
Can the envoy you called Xue Yantuo not be angry?
And he also thought of a more alarming question, that is, they bought the Jiulong ice jade glass bottle to offer it to the Turks for their protection.
But now that there are so many Jiulong ice jade glazed bottles, why would the Turks still find them rare? Will they still be protected?
Impossible, absolutely impossible. If there were only a few of these things, they would be very precious, but now there are so many of them. The Turks would only think that Xue Yantuo was playing tricks on him, and they would be lucky if they didn't get angry and send troops to them.
The fast horse has been sent out by Xue Yantuo's envoy, with only one purpose: to stop the king of Xue Yantuo from presenting the Jiulong Ice Jade Glaze Vase.
But Envoy Xue Yantuo also knew that this was just a matter of doing his best to obey fate. Chang'an was not close to the capital of Xue Yantuo's country. Even with a fast horse, it would take more than ten days to travel. By the time his fast horse arrived at the capital, he was afraid that the things would have been sent out already. Envoy Xue Yantuo There's no good way to do this either.
Xue Yantuo's envoys were like this, and the Japanese and Gaogouli envoys were also horrified. They also spent huge sums of money to take pictures of the Jiulong Ice Jade Glaze Vase and sent it back to the country in order to win the favor of their king. He was able to be promoted to a higher position.
If their king knew that this thing was a dirty thing in Chang'an and could be obtained for only ten gold, the consequences would be unimaginable. Let alone promotion, it would be nice if they were not demoted.
Many people from big families have not seen through this matter. Although they know about hoarding, they don’t know that although an item is worth five hundred gold, you have to be able to sell it and the money will be in your pocket. Who is it now? Sell it, who will be the winner? Storing it at home like a big family member is the stupidest thing. This is the so-called takeover man.
Of course, if Luo Zhang stops selling and no longer uses Jiulong ice jade glass bottles to hold highland barley wine, it may still be able to maintain its value. However, how could Luo Zhang stop selling? There are several rooms of wine bottles piled up in his warehouse at home. It's Erguotou that is usually eaten at banquets. This thing is useless at home and takes up space. It is naturally the best thing to make the best use of it.
It's a pity that those members of the big family are still holding a bunch of wine bottles and are complacent, but they don't know that a disaster is about to happen to them!
Three days later, all the highland barley hoarded by the big families were exchanged by Luo Zhang.
On the second day after all the exchanges were completed, a high platform was built in Yan Lai Tower.
Many people don't know what Yanlailou is going to do and why they built a high platform in front of the door.
On the second floor of Yan Lai Building, Luo Zhang stood in front of the window and looked at the long queue below, and said to Zhao Tianhu on the side: "Is the table decorated yet?"
Zhao Tianhu said hurriedly: "Brother, everything is done according to your requirements!"
"Come on, let me open your eyes today and show you what business is!" Luo Zhang said with high spirits.
Zhao Tianhu touched his bald head and blinked, a little confused, but whatever Luo Zhang said was what he said, he just had to follow it.
"when!"
With the sound of gongs and drums, everyone who was originally surrounding Yan Lai Tower was attracted to look at the high platform where the gongs and drums were beating, wondering what Yan Lai Tower was going to do.
Luo Zhang walked up to the high platform neatly dressed. When he saw everyone's attention being attracted, he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your continued support of Yanlailou. I am Luo Zhang. I think everyone knows me here." , I’m not talking nonsense, I set up this high platform today to give back to our customers, and for this reason, our building will hold an event today.”
After speaking, Luo Zhang clapped his hands, and a group of big men and maids carried the things onto the high platform.
At the same time, banners were also raised on the high platform, and a letter was sent to Yanlailou for the lottery!
After everything was placed, a long table appeared on the high platform, and on the long table was a large wooden box. There was a hole on the side of the wooden box facing the high platform, and a piece of black cloth was connected to the hole. I don’t know what this is.
At the same time, there were bottles of highland barley wine piled on the long table. The eyes of everyone in the audience were shining. You must know that this is all money. One bottle is five hundred gold. How much does it cost here?
