Biguang wine is yellow with green in it, and when you drink it, there is a faint fragrance of bamboo leaves, just like the green bamboo leaves.
Bianjing does not grow near Bianjing, but it is still possible to brew bamboo-flavored wine, which is even more difficult!
The sky is getting dark, and the night on the Bianhe River is very refreshing. It is really enjoyable to eat with the sky as your cover. There are gradually more men, women and children by the river. Some of them are holding small fans and some are carrying small lanterns. They are very cute.
Passers-by looked at a sign placed next to Liang Chuan's and his group's dining table, which said that these bricks were on sale at a bargain price.
Interested people immediately took notice.
Bianjing City, like today's Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, has a unique location advantage. Whether it is life, business or medical education, the world's richest and most wealthy people, high-ranking officials and dignitaries are all concentrated in Bianjing City.
If it were a country like Fengshan, people would choose Bianjing even if they had to exchange a big house for a hut in Bianjing.
Due to the adjustment of supply and demand, housing prices in Bianjing remained high. Su Shi's younger brother even sold his own book collection in order to give his children a place to live in Bianjing, so he managed to get a three-bedroom apartment. .
When housing prices are high, the prices of natural building materials will also be high.
Moreover, driven by the high housing prices, people not only do not think about escaping Bianjing, but go to Bianjing even harder. They all hold the belief that if they can get a house in Bianjing early, they will buy more in the future. Amazing!
A decent-looking old man looked at these old materials for a long time, and then looked at Liang Chuan and Sun Houpu for a while. If it weren't for the imperial guards guarding them, he would have come over long ago.
Liang Chuan finished his meal with sheep's trotters and pork knuckles, and after a sip of refreshing and sweet Biguang wine, he went to the Bian River to grab a handful of water and wash his face.
Seeing this old man watching for a long time, he asked: "Brother, are you building a house at home and want to buy some bricks and stones?"
The old man didn't expect that the official would take the initiative to say hello to him. He immediately came over, nodded and said, "That's right. I heard that there are cheap bricks here. Come and see if it's true!"
Liang Chuan said: "Can it be fake? The price is clearly marked. Take a look for yourself. These bricks turned out to belong to wealthy families nearby. Look, the house in front of it turns out to be the house of Zhang Guifei's brother Zhang Yaozuo. He is an official family. My uncle, that house used to be very grand and used good bricks and good materials, but now they are all here, you can take your pick as you see it!"
The old man thought that the ones from Uncle Guo's house would definitely be good, but he still asked worriedly: "But this is from the government. You sold it so cheaply, don't you regret it?"
Liang Chuan tilted his head and said, "Well, you gave me the money, so just move over. If those Imperial Guards soldiers lay a finger on you, I will pay you ten times the price!"
The old man was very excited when he heard this. He took out a large bag of silver from his arms, looked at one or two taels of silver, and said, "Let's see how many bricks I can lift!"
This money is equivalent to 20 guan, which is 20,000 yuan. Ten coins per brick can move 2,000 yuan. Sun Houpu asked the clerk to write down the accounts and led the old man over to move the bricks.
The old man looked at the steel knife on the waist of the big soldier guarding the building materials, and his heart trembled. If he yelled, he would definitely run away. The boy counted two thousand bricks and asked, "You can hire someone to move it yourself!"
I really let myself take it away! If you go to the official kiln to buy these two thousand bricks by yourself, it will cost you sixty or seventy guan no matter what. What a profit!
"Wait, I'll call someone right away!"
Sun Houpu had seen the big world, and making twenty taels of silver was like playing house to him. This was just two thousand bricks, and if a mountain of them were sold. . How much can it cost. .
Liang Chuan said: "Let the guys keep the good materials for us later, so we can use them to build our own buildings in the future!"
Sun Houpu's eyes lit up and he said, "We... want to build it ourselves?"
Sun Houpu didn't have a lot of cash in hand. According to his budget, he could only spend one or two hundred thousand guan to break the sky. If he built his own building, how much would it cost in Bianjing City?
But building a building is good, you have your own place, and once you build it, it is yours, and there will be less noise in the future.
But how much does it cost? If the materials are all there, but the land also costs money, right?
Every inch of land in Bianjing City is precious, so I'm afraid I won't be able to get hundreds of thousands of coins!
A businessman likes to face difficulties. When encountering such a big deal, what he thinks of is not the difficulties, but that the benefits are definitely more than what he has paid for.
Liang Chuan said: "After this matter is settled, Mr. Ding will help us settle the land matter. In other words, these two items that cost a lot of money have been secured. The materials are free and the land is easy to handle. It's your big brother to build this building." There’s no need to spend any more money. And from the looks of it, we’re just going to make a fortune tonight!”
"I admire you. I used to think that Brother Zhang's methods were just trivial. I didn't expect that in a place like Bianjing City where crouching tigers and hidden dragons are located, you are still like a fish in water. Thanks to your support, I can see such a scene."
Not long after the old man left, he returned with his servants and servants. There were about a dozen donkey horses pulling flatbed carts, and there was a large basket of copper coins on each cart. He smiled so hard that his mouth was crooked. He turned to Liang Chuan and said, "Master, I want to buy 50,000 bricks and take them away right away. You have to keep them for me and don't let others take them away!"
Liang Chuan said: "Don't worry, brother, if you have the money, I will definitely keep the fifty thousand bricks for you, but they have to be taken away at night. If you miss it, the price will increase tomorrow, and it will be thirty cents per brick tomorrow!"
Liang Chuan called Nian Cheng to him and said, "Nian Cheng, go and write a sign again. Just write it for one day. The price will increase tomorrow. One brick and thirty cents tomorrow!"
Nian Cheng quickly put up another wooden sign.
Passers-by criticized each other: "Hey, the price has risen very fast. Today it only cost ten cents, but one dollar tomorrow can buy three dollars today."
The old man said happily: "Fortunately, I took a few steps out today without incident. When I encountered such a good thing, a big meat pie fell from the world, which saved me a lot of money!"
The old man was pulling the bricks back one by one. Pedestrians on the road saw them and asked, "Where did these bricks come from?"
The servant didn't think much and blurted out: "The place on Shangtuqiao sells bricks. They only cost ten cents a piece. There are quite a few bricks. If you go late, the price will go up tomorrow. A brick will cost thirty cents tomorrow!"
A passer-by asked in surprise: "What! Ten cents a brick, ah, I just want to build a fish pond, I will also go get him a few carts of bricks!"
This kind of mentality is a typical big sale mentality. There are big discounts in supermarkets and the prices are extremely cheap. Many things are actually useless. They usually cost 500 yuan a piece, but now they only cost 50 yuan. But uncles and aunties want to grab them. It feels like If you don’t buy it, you’ll lose money. If you buy it, you’ll still feel you’ve made a profit even if you keep it. You might need it one day if you keep it.
Moreover, ancient houses are different from modern ones. They are always old houses. It is common for walls and houses to collapse. Repairs are like clothes. If it is not possible, you can build a small house. Bricks are cheap anyway. .
The news about the brick sale spread like wildfire, and the old man's truck was like a living advertising truck. Everyone would ask a few questions when they saw the brick sale in the middle of the night. In addition, Sun Houfu's clerk was full of people. There were shouts on the street, and all the people rushed up the earth bridge for a while, just to grab a few bricks.
Sun Houpu praised: "Master Ding wants us to sell all these bricks in one day, but you pretend to raise the price tomorrow. The people are greedy for cheap and follow the herd. It would be strange if they don't rush to the top!"
The two people were watching from the edge of the Bianhe River. They saw that Bianhe Street was like a war, with countless people pushing carts or pulling horse-drawn carriages rushing towards the upper earth bridge.
Warlord Xia Shou'en demolished the house for a whole day without causing any trouble. Suddenly, people from below came to report that there were some rioters on Bianhe Street. I'm afraid the situation may change!
Xia Shouen's face was livid. The emperor could not tolerate any disorder under his feet. If anything happened, countless heads would fall to the ground. He did not dare to be careless. He immediately took out the steel knife from his waist and shouted: "Grandma, there are really some people who are not afraid of death. Give me your swords." Sheath, if I encounter anyone who dares to make a mistake later, I will chop them all on the spot!"
Unexpectedly, Xia Shouen's army arrived at Shangtu Bridge and saw a different scene. It was already the time when the lanterns were hung high, the fireworks were bright on the Bian River, and countless cargo ships were queuing up by the river. There were countless trolleys on the shore, and the entire Bianhe Street was packed to the brim.
Looking at them, they don't look like they are rebellious. They look more like they are rushing to grab some good treasures, and they will be gone if they get there late.
Xia Shouen rode on his horse and shouted loudly to the imperial guards guarding the scraps: "I asked you to guard, what's going on with these people!"
The guard said: "Sir, someone just came to dispose of these waste materials with the sign in the hand of Lord Ding. The villain checked the sign in his hand and found that the sign in his hand is genuine. These people are here to buy masonry and wood!"
Xia Shouen didn't care what they did, as long as they didn't cause any trouble, his face turned pale as he looked at the Bianhe Street, which looked like a vegetable market.
If someone makes trouble here, the situation will be difficult to control.
Liang Chuan also saw a group of forbidden troops riding over on tall horses from a distance, and immediately brought Sun Houpu forward to greet them.
Liang Chuan stood on the ground and saluted Xia Shouen, who was sitting on a tall horse, and said, "May I ask who the general is...?"
Xia Shouen said loudly: "I am Xia Shouen, the front secretary of the palace, who are you?"
Liang Chuan raised his head and glanced at Xia Shouen, his eyes were neither humble nor arrogant, and he smiled and said: "I am on errands for Lord Ding. I came here to deal with this pile of pickled objects at Lord Ding's order at night. I deserve to be damned if I alerted you!"
Ding said people.
Xia Shouen's eyes narrowed and his expression softened slightly. This time they were partners. Although he didn't like Ding Wei's behavior, he still wanted to give Ding Wei some face as they were both on official errands.
Moreover, these hundreds of thousands of bricks were still like mountains in the afternoon, and I was still thinking about what to do with them when I patrolled the city in the evening. In this short time, it was as if a dog had bitten off a gap, and a lot of things were missing.
The people in the city were moving like ants. Countless people were climbing up and down this brick mountain. They were afraid that they would not be able to grab a brick and a half. Countless bricks were loaded onto carts or dragged to the river by cargo ships. Walk.
Before midnight, half of the mountain was gone.
