"Your stove is obviously no different from those outside. Why is this stove the most expensive in your shop?" Xiao Kai didn't care whether Shopkeeper Liu was happy or unhappy, and continued talking to himself.
"Although this stove has a similar appearance to the ones displayed outside, the workmanship and materials are not comparable to those outside!" Shopkeeper Liu glanced at Xiao Kai and introduced, "As the saying goes, you get what you pay for, and this stove's The material is made of materials that are better than steel, and there are hollow carvings on it, how can it be comparable to those ordinary furnaces outside?"
Shopkeeper Liu walked over, opened the furnace cover, and put the candlestick in his hand into the furnace. He saw that the iron furnace was surrounded by wisps of light. The bright photoelectrics gathered into the shape of a flower. However, when Shopkeeper Liu made a "clang" sound and pulled a cover plate, the trace of light disappeared directly. Shopkeeper Liu took out the candlestick from the furnace.
"Are you all satisfied?" Shopkeeper Liu walked up to Xiao Kai again with the candlestick and asked with a smile.
"I want to see the material of this stove!" Xiao Kai was still unwilling to give up. He walked over and wiped the stove. After touching it, Xiao Kai discovered that the material of this stove was very smooth. He had touched the material of the iron stove. It was extremely rough, but the surface of this stove was extremely smooth.
"How much does this stove cost?" After confirming the material, Xiao Kai had to admit that the workmanship and design of this stove were indeed better than those outside.
Shopkeeper Liu raised his index finger directly at Xiao Kai.
"A sling of money?" Xiao Kai nodded, "A sling of money is not expensive!" Xiao Kai was about to take the money from his arms.
"Xiao Erlang, this stove is always the same!" Shopkeeper Liu looked at Xiao Kai's action of touching the money and reminded Xiao Kai with a smile.
"How much?!" When he heard the price from Shopkeeper Liu, Xiao Kai stopped touching the money and stared at Shopkeeper Liu with disbelief, as if he wanted to confirm whether Shopkeeper Liu was joking. Kai suddenly heard a high-octave voice, which startled his friend next to him, who even covered his ears.
"What a joke! Such a broken stove actually costs a lot of money? Do you know how many things you can buy with a lot of money?!" Xiao Kai asked shopkeeper Liu like a barrage of questions, while shopkeeper Liu kept backing away, avoiding Saliva splashed from Xiao Kai's mouth.
"There's nothing we can do about it! My boss, each of these ten iron stoves is priced at the same price, even if it's a penny less!" Shopkeeper Liu explained to Xiao Kai with a look of helplessness, "I just gave Xiao Erlang a 10% discount. I am already licking my face and making the decision privately..." The meaning of Shopkeeper Liu's words is very obvious. I am helping you save money, but if you don't want it yourself, then you can't blame us!
"Your boss is committing an open robbery! A stove is worth money! What is the difference between this and robbery! King Rencheng is so brave, he actually competes with the people for profit. I will go back to the house immediately and inform Aye of the matter tomorrow. In the morning, I must ask my husband, Aye, to read a book!" Xiao Kai originally bought the stove together with a sling of money, and then bought some furniture and transported it home. When the time came, Xiao Yu saw it and would definitely praise it. He said a few words, but Shopkeeper Liu's "consistent money" price immediately shattered Xiao Kai's thoughts.
If Xiao Kai was here alone, Xiao Kai wouldn't be able to say such cruel words and would at most walk away. But now that he has a group of friends around him, Xiao Kai can no longer hold on to his face. Feeling a little furious.
Besides, even if he is the second son of the Xiao family, it is impossible for him to carry a lot of money with him. That is a thousand copper coins. That weight can directly tire him to death. Carrying a sling of money is already good. , what's more, if he really used his money to buy such a stove and go home, wouldn't his father be able to take care of him directly?
"I heard that Xiao Erlang wants Xiao Pu to shoot a copy of my father's ginseng?" Just as Xiao Kai was jumping, Lu Chen walked over in three steps and looked at Xiao Kai with a sneer on his lips.
"You...why are you here?" When Xiao Kai saw Lu Chen's appearance, he was stunned and pointed directly at Lu Chen and asked with a shocked face.
"This is my property, why can't I come?" Lu Chen looked at Xiao Kai and sneered.
After the opening ceremony in the East Market, Lu Chen took a walk around the stores, wanting to see if the thing he made could attract customers after it opened.
Lu Chen visited several shops on the East Market side. Although he didn't see anyone buying, it did attract a lot of people to watch.
After walking around the shops in the East Market, naturally he wanted to go to the West Market. When he arrived at this shop, he was told by the waiter that the shopkeeper had taken someone to the backyard to look at the goods. Lu Chen suddenly felt happy and thought to himself: It wasn't like he could get his first business done. As a result, as soon as he walked into the backyard, he heard Xiao Kai jumping around and declared that he wanted to get a copy of it.
"Xiao Erlang, you have healed the scar and forgot about the pain! Go back and ask Aye if he dares to join me?!" Lu Chen looked at Xiao Kai with a sneer, "Oh! By the way, I forgot to tell you. Yes, my name as the 'Shengshi Group' was personally approved by His Majesty, do you still want your Aye to join me?"
Originally, Xiao Kai still wanted to argue with Lu Chen. Although he didn't understand what the "Shengshi Group" meant, but when he heard that the name was personally approved by Li Yuan, Xiao Kai knew that he was going to do it again this time. After losing to Lu Chen, he could only glare at Lu Chen bitterly, flick his sleeves and said, "Let's go!"
As a result, after Xiao Kai finished saying this, he found that his few friends had no intention of leaving, but stood there and looked at Lu Chen.
"Well, Mr. Lu, we all want to buy this stove. I wonder if it can be cheaper?" A friend of Xiao Kai raised his hand to Lu Chen and asked more respectfully than flatteringly.
"Of course you can! How can there be any reason to keep customers when we are open for business? However, the prices of these ten stoves cannot be reduced. However, if you are interested in the stoves outside, I will make the decision and you can get a 20% discount. , how about it?" Lu Chen looked at several of Xiao Kai's friends who were smiling at him, and ignored Xiao Kai who was staring at him with some resentment, and said to them with a smile.
"In that case, thank you so much, Mr. Lu County!" After hearing that they could get a 20% discount, several people directly rushed to Lu Chen and bowed, then hurriedly walked to the front hall.
"Old Liu, hurry up and pick up the guests!" Lu Chen reminded Shopkeeper Liu beside him.
"Hey! Go now!" After being reminded by Lu Chen, Shopkeeper Liu hurriedly chased those people to the front hall, and the waiter also followed behind Shopkeeper Liu.
"Shopkeeper, my father-in-law asked you to pick up the customers!" The waiter said with a smile beside Shopkeeper Liu. The waiter is also an old man who has always been with Shopkeeper Liu, so he can talk to Shopkeeper Liu more casually.
"You are the only one who talks a lot!" How could Shopkeeper Liu not hear this, but what could he do? Father, are you wrong? Then can he still work as a shopkeeper? Shopkeeper Liu glared at the clerk directly.
"Hey!" The clerk was not afraid of being glared at by Shopkeeper Liu, and just laughed.
"Xiao Erlang, stop holding your breath and let your heart go away!" Lu Chen looked at Xiao Kai who was standing there comparing his luck, and teased, "Why do you always compete with me? Is this necessary? ? You and Aye have already admitted it, what kind of trouble can you make? If you want me, you will be your servant honestly, and those friends of yours... Tsk!" At this point, Lu Chen shook his head directly.
"Hmph! I don't need you to teach me!" This was Xiao Kai's last stubbornness. He flicked his sleeves and strode away from the mausoleum. As for his friends, he didn't even say hello and looked at them. Not a glance.
"Gou, did you see that? Never associate with such people in the future, you know?" Looking at Xiao Kai's back, Lu Chen seemed to be reminding Liu Jing.
"Yes! Gouwa took note of it!" Liu Jing responded with a nod.
"Master, what about me?" After hearing Liu Jing's answer, Feng Huai poked his head over and asked.
"You?" Looking at Feng Huai, Lu Chen laughed together and reached out to pat Feng Huai on the shoulder. "You, just stay with me for the rest of your life! What do you think?" Lu Chen looked at Feng Huai with a smile. .
"Hey!" Feng Huai chuckled and nodded.
"Remember to deliver the goods to your door!" Lu Chen reminded shopkeeper Liu and left the store with Liu Jing and Feng Huai.
Seeing that Lu Chen was about to leave, those few people, shopkeeper Liu and the waiters hurriedly sent Lu Chen out of the store.
Lu Chen just walked out of the store. He didn't go far before he arrived at the furniture store. When he came here, he stood at the door of the store. Lu Chen did not enter the store because the furniture store was full of people at this time, looking at the furniture. Lu Chen Chen nodded, turned around and left, heading straight for another Coal Company. As a result, the place in the Coal Company could be described as a deserted place.
After all, before iron stoves became popular, I am afraid that the life of this charcoal industry would be deserted for a while.
After inspecting a circle of shops, Lu Chen felt a little relieved, and then he returned to Dongshi with Liu Jing and Feng Huai, picked up his mounts, and headed straight to Pingkangfang.
Now that the "Shengshi Group" matter has been finalized, it's time for the main event, and at the same time, we have to meet the Luo Douzhi.
After all, Luo Douzhi is an important part of the big plan that will be carried out during the new year. Now it's time for him, the "mastermind behind the scenes," to meet that important "chess piece."
