A dignified cadre, a ceremonial officer, and a great eunuch took a treasure that even the herdsmen despised and refused to use it. As a result, they directly used it as a urinal...
A dignified and powerful emperor was deceived repeatedly by a small country. Not only did he throw out a lot of money, he might also be laughed at and laughed at...
Treat a bunch of worthless things as treasure.
It's so embarrassing...
Sizzle!
There was a sizzling sound of oil and water droplets splashing on the charcoal.
Accompanied by an alluring aroma.
Smell this alluring aroma.
Wang Lishi and Zhao Chongyuan couldn't help but shrugged their noses.
"Come here as a guest, have something to eat to fill your stomach. The mountain road is rugged and there are no people around. It's not easy for you to come all the way. Although I don't have much ability, little old man, and my family is not rich, at least we still have beef and mutton. , eat when you are full.”
It seemed that they could see the disappointment on the faces of Zhao Chongyuan and Wang Lishi.
Once the kebabs are grilled.
The old herdsman quickly picked up two bunches and handed them to Wang Lishi and Zhao Chongyuan.
Looking at the attractive color, moderately fat and thin beef skewers in front of me.
Wang Lishi and Zhao Chongyuan's stomachs growled unconsciously.
Listening to the sound in their stomachs, the old herdsman looked at the two with even more pity, and comforted them: "It's okay, you can eat it. After you finish eating, we still have this cow here. Just treat it as a little old man and I will entertain you." ”
After saying that, he called to the guards who came with Zhao Chongyuan: "Come, come, let's eat something to fill our stomachs."
Several people dared not speak.
After taking a look at Wang Lishi and Zhao Chongyuan, he saw Zhao Chongyuan nodding.
Only then did a few people gather around and sit in front of the charcoal fire.
Wang Lishi took a bite, and his old face suddenly twisted into a chrysanthemum: "Your Majesty...Master, this beef?"
When he was excited, he almost called his Majesty Zhao Chongyuan again, but after realizing it, Wang Lishi immediately changed his name to "Master".
But the look in his eyes as he looked at the beef skewers in his hand couldn't stop changing.
The quality of the meat of this beef skewer is naturally unparalleled.
But the taste is also unique.
"This is?"
Zhao Chongyuan also realized that something was wrong. He picked up the meat skewers in his hand and stared carefully at the things that looked like hay shavings on the meat skewers.
Only then did I think back to it.
It seemed that it was because the herdsman sprinkled these things that the flavor of the beef skewers was completely stimulated.
And the bits on the beef skewers are similar to their refined salt.
The two work together.
The taste was simply wonderful.
Even Zhao Chongyuan, the Daqian Emperor, has never eaten such delicious beef skewers.
Uncontrollably.
Wang Lishi and Zhao Chongyuan started eating regardless of their appearance.
Seeing Wang Lishi and Zhao Chongyuan like this.
The old herdsmen were deeply moved.
Look at his eating appearance. If he didn't look like a rich man, he would have thought he was the reincarnation of a starving ghost.
"Hiccup~~"
"Hiccup~~"
After a feast of wine and food.
Zhao Chongyuan and Wang Lishi patted their bulging bellies and leaned on the bluestone on the mountain with satisfaction.
They ate most of the tenderloin, the best part of a cow.
If it weren't for the fact that it couldn't be stuffed anymore.
They want to continue eating.
On the side, Erwa and other guards also lay on the ground contentedly.
Although they were not as lucky as Zhao Chongyuan and Wang Lishi to eat the best part of a cow, other parts were also extremely delicious.
It's simply better than what they eat in the capital.
"Old man...hiccup~~."
Opening his mouth, Wang Lishi couldn't help but belched again.
Perhaps because of the delicious meal, Wang Lishi no longer looked as shocked as before.
Pointing at the condiments placed on the ground in front of the old man, he asked, "Old man, can you sell these condiments? I want to sell some."
With Wang Lishi's eyes, he can naturally see it.
The reason why the beef skewers were so delicious just now was naturally because of the seasonings placed around the herdsmen.
"This thing?"
The old herdsman glanced at the direction of Wang Lishi's finger and said with a smile: "If your benefactor wants to buy it, just go to our Zhao's Trading Company in Youzhou City to buy it. This thing is called cumin, and Zhao's Trading Company has a lot of it."
Zhao Chongyuan frowned when he heard this and asked subconsciously: "Then Zhao's Trading Company is also opened by His Highness King Yan?"
Daqian's surname is Zhao.
As for the entire business in Dagan that dared to bear the name of the Zhao family, he really couldn't think of anyone else to open it except for one of his own members of the Dagan royal family.
"Yes, it is opened by our Highness King Yan, and this Zhao's Trading Company is the largest trading company in Youzhou. Not only this cumin, but also the so-called glazed cup you just took out, are all sold in Zhao's Trading Company , and in addition to these, there are many strange things.
We, Youzhou, have become wealthy in recent years, thanks to Zhao's Trading Company. "
The old herdsman replied subconsciously, and when he said this, he patted his forehead and said: "And the Tiansu Restaurant where my son had snacks before is also the restaurant under Zhao's Trading Company opened by His Royal Highness King Yan.
Dear guest, if you are coming to Youzhou to do business, I would like to visit Zhao's Trading Company. "
The old herdsman said with a smile.
I heard the old herdsman say this.
Zhao Chongyuan and Wang Lishi immediately became interested.
Originally, they came to Youzhou because Zhao Chongyuan wanted to see his son and inspect the fiefdom.
Unexpectedly, there are so many new things coming out now.
The two of them naturally became interested.
After another round of chatting, I thoroughly inquired about the situation in Youzhou.
Zhao Chongyuan and Wang Lishi happily got into the carriage again.
By the way, I also took two skewers of beef grilled by the herdsmen and took them with me to eat.
Not to mention that although the meat quality of this home-grown beef is a bit different from the tribute cattle in the palace, the cumin stuff is quite fragrant when sprinkled on it, and the refined salt is purer than the salt in their palace.
The Xiaowei Laolao came up.
Even Zhao Chongyuan, the emperor who was accustomed to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, was a little reluctant to part with him.
"Hiccup~~~"
The bumpy ride of the carriage, coupled with the fact that I ate a little too much.
As soon as he got on the carriage and not far away, Zhao Chongyuan couldn't help but burped.
This time he came to the right place.
Not only did I see my son, I also saw all kinds of strange and weird things that my son made by himself.
Especially since this bitter cold place in Youzhou has been built so well.
He, Zhao Chongyuan, also felt honored.
Especially the way to deal with the two enemy countries, Nanchen and Beiliang.
This one is relaxed.
Zhao Chongyuan also felt that it was extremely appropriate.
Although the method of being a human pig is a bit cruel, this has always been the case between countries. If a woman is kind, that is the greatest cruelty to her own people.
First they intimidate each other, and then they sit down and talk business in a good-humoured way.
It's so easy.
Even Zhao Chongyuan was not so sophisticated when he first became emperor.
"Hiccup~~ Lux, what did the Ninth Prince say?"
After burping again, Zhao Chongyuan looked at Wang Lishi aside and asked.
"Your Majesty, when friends come, there is wine, and when jackals come, there are shotguns."
Wang Lishi bowed and replied.
"Yes, yes, friends come with wine, and jackals come with shotguns."
Zhao Chongyuan slapped his head and said with a smile: "Why didn't I see that this kid was so capable?"
Zhao Chongyuan laughed loudly.
The more I think about the things Zhao Dinggan did.
Zhao Chongyuan felt even happier in his heart.
"Your Majesty, look at what you said. The Ninth Prince is your dragon son after all. Without you as his father, how would the Ninth Prince be where he is today? Your Majesty is so humble."
"Hey, Lux, I just like your mouth, hahahaha."
Zhao Chongyuan laughed.
The more he listened to Wang Lishi's words, the prouder Zhao Chongyuan became.
yes.
Without me, how could there be Zhao Ding?
It’s all my fault!
…
"Dad, let's go."
Just as Zhao Chongyuan and his party walked happily towards Youzhou City.
Gouwa and the old herdsman emerged from the grass. They squinted at the carriage that gradually disappeared at the end of their sight.
"Quick, quick, quick, send the signal, there's a big fish."
After confirming that the carriage had completely disappeared from sight, the herdsman changed his previous honest look and happily took out a signal from his body that resembled a flying monkey.
Pull off the leads.
Whoosh!
The flying monkey flew out.
It exploded in the air.
And with this explosion.
Along the way from here to Youzhou, in the corners far away from the bluestone road, there are also monkeys rising into the sky.
Then it suddenly exploded in the air.
Bang bang bang!
Explosions sounded one after another in the mountains outside Youzhou City.
"Dad, isn't it a bit unkind of us to do this..."
Watching the flying monkey rising into the sky, there were also sounds of flying monkeys in other places responding.
Gouwa scratched his head and looked at his father with some embarrassment.
When Zhao Chongyuan left just now, he secretly gave him a gold leaf.
However, he hadn't finished speaking yet.
There was a loud bang in his head.
It hit him on the skull.
The old herdsman glared at his son: "What do you know? We are doing meritorious service for His Highness King Yan. Don't you think about how easy it is for His Highness King Yan to support our Youzhou? Just rely on the merchants from Nanchen and Beiliang to buy our Youzhou." Goods? Can we, the people of Youzhou, live a good life so quickly?"
"But cousin Erwazi is still inside, isn't it a little bit..."
Gouwa hesitated to speak.
There was a snap.
Another slap came on Gouwa's head.
"The more familiar the people are, the more they have to be killed. If you can kill them one by one, how can we, the people of Youzhou, have the life we have now?"
The old herdsman was so angry that he blew his beard and stared at the dog boy angrily.
"But the price is twenty times as much."
Gouwa still couldn't bear it.
Not to mention, there was also his cousin in the caravan.
Snap!
Another slap.
The dog almost cried from being beaten.
The old herdsman was so angry that he gritted his teeth and looked at his son: "If you are not ruthless, you can't stand still. His Highness King Yan said before that even if his father is here, that is, our majesty is now here. His Highness King Yan said that he should If I peel off my skin and go out, your cousin will be nothing. Besides, we’re hitching a ride on a cow."
"Well, that's right."
When Gouwa heard his father talking about this, he nodded immediately.
It seems that this is indeed the case.
Emperor Daqian would not come to their mountain valley anyway, and their Prince Yan was the ninth prince of Emperor Daqian.
As long as the emperor doesn't come.
Others can be slaughtered at will.
Even if something happens, His Highness Prince Yan will be there to take care of it.
And standing behind His Highness King Yan is Emperor Daqian!
Besides, this is for the sake of the people of Youzhou, right?
How could the people of Youzhou live so well without these foreign visitors these years?
Can he have some snacks?
When I thought of this, Gou Wa suddenly felt.
His Royal Highness, Prince Yan, is right.
Even when the emperor comes, he will kill everyone who deserves to be killed!
Youzhou.
In the palace of Prince Yan.
Hu San ran to the pavilion where Zhao Ding was enjoying the shade, and shouted excitedly: "Your Majesty, there are guests from Daqian."
"Da Gan?"
Under the pavilion, Zhao Ding, who was lying leisurely on the wicker chair and enjoying the kneading of the maid next to him, sat up from the wicker chair and even dropped the two cucumber slices that were applied to his face to eliminate the dark circles under his eyes.
Zhao Qian casually took a cucumber slice and stuffed it in his mouth. While chewing the cucumber slice, Zhao Gan looked at Hu San and asked, "How many people are here? How many caravans?"
"Um...just one team."
Hu San pinched his mustache, and after thinking for a moment, he looked at Zhao Ding with a flattering look.
"Oh, that's too cruel. We have fewer caravans here in the past few years."
Zhao Ding smacked his lips and sighed.
"What about this time? Will the price drop a little?"
Hu San asked tentatively.
Youzhou has developed rapidly in the past few years, and the things that the prince has invented are also very popular with the people in the surrounding cities.
In the beginning, his prince didn't want to defraud the common people, so the price was not very high, and he basically got a 50% profit.
But those gang of profiteers from out of town.
Seeing that their prices are cheap, I buy from them at a low price and sell them at a high price.
Later, when their prince became popular, they only had visitors from out of town.
Prices have risen twentyfold.
Only local people can buy at the original price with their ID cards.
Over time, the number of caravans decreased.
Of course, this money is also earned in abundance.
Otherwise, the people of Youzhou would not have such good living conditions.
"Why should we lower the price? The merchants who have done business with us in Youzhou over the years have made a lot of money. If we lower the price, will those profiteers lower the price? Increase it!"
Zhao Ding said nonchalantly, then curled his lips and said: "Our current price is for us locals in Youzhou. It is an internal price. Isn't it reasonable to increase the price for those passing by businessmen?"
Youzhou has become rich in recent years, but the first group of businessmen who did business with them have also become rich.
A worthless glass cup was actually turned into a glass cup. It takes thousands of years for crystal to form naturally, and it takes three years to polish one.
Just one sentence, the colored glaze lasts forever, and one will be passed down forever.
This marketing method would have been possible if he, Zhao Qian, had not come from later generations.
He wants to shout loudly.
Damn it, it’s a waste of time!
So what to drop now?
Just kill it and that's it.
Anyway, the core formula is in his hands, Zhao Qian!
And with so many good things in hand, Zhao Qian doesn’t have to worry about selling them!
First record the original wave.
Wait for the people from other countries around you to react.
Only then can we have the confidence to start a price war!
"Then how many times is suitable for you?"
Hu San asked tentatively.
"Fifty times."
"Okay, let's do it."
Hu Sanyi heard this.
He immediately ran outside in a hurry.
Merchants throughout Youzhou City began to mobilize rapidly.
Brand new price lists were replaced one by one.
By the way, I made an old one skillfully.
Try not to notice the slightest difference.
And at the same time.
On top of the carriage.
Wang Lishi looked at the roar of the flying monkeys that kept ringing outside the carriage.
The corners of his mouth were also straight.
"Your Majesty, the folk customs in Youzhou are simple and honest. Not only are there free beef skewers on the road, but now they also set off firecrackers to welcome us. After all, this is a fiefdom under the rule of King Yan, and the folk customs are simple."
Open the car curtain and watch the scenery passing by quickly.
Wang Lishi kept praising him.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Chongyuan also laughed happily.
you do not say.
That is quite simple!
