Wang Shijing came back and invited patriarch Sun, and Wang Shijing had already got to know patriarch Sun thoroughly. As soon as Patriarch Sun entered the house, shopkeeper Xu went down to the kang to salute, with an extremely friendly attitude, the two sides sat down, patriarch Sun said: "Ishii told me what shopkeeper Xu entrusted, to be honest, my Sun family and Yongningtang It is stated in the contract that this chrysanthemum tea can only be sold to Yongningtang, and my uncle in the same family has a good relationship with the owner of Yongningtang, and the shopkeeper of Yongningtang is also known as brother brother, this matter is really embarrassing."
Shopkeeper Xu sighed, "It's Xu who made things difficult for Patriarch Sun."
Patriarch Sun said: "Master Xu, why don't you buy it from Ishii and An Geer? The contract between my Sun family and Yongningtang is only for us, but it has nothing to do with An Geer. The contract signed by my family and An Geer is only He said that as long as it doesn't affect my grandson's business, An Geer can still sell the chrysanthemum tea to other families. The chrysanthemum tea made by An Geer is better than the chrysanthemum tea made by others."
Shopkeeper Xu immediately became hopeful again, looking at Shao Yunan, Shao Yunan was very helpless: "Shopkeeper Xu, Brother Jing and I don't have the energy to take this business, I want to sell chrysanthemum tea, I can sell you two catties at most at a time, is it enough for you?"
Shopkeeper Xu was distressed: "Two catties is definitely not enough. I also guarantee that I will not sell this chrysanthemum tea in Yongxiu County. My boss is from the capital. My boss wants to sell it in the capital. Yongningtang's chrysanthemum tea has already sold out." In Chinan Prefecture, we don't intend to compete with them, but I dare say that Yongningtang is not yet capable enough to sell this chrysanthemum tea to the capital."
Upon hearing this, Patriarch Sun said, "Brother An, you have a good talk with shopkeeper Xu, and I'll go back first. What shopkeeper Xu said makes sense. With the amount the Sun family can sell now, the farthest Yongningtang can sell is the imperial edict." Nanfu, no matter how far away it is, you and Ishii think carefully, it is better not to push the money you can earn."
"Well. Brother Jing and I will think about it carefully, and let Patriarch Sun miss you."
Patriarch Sun got off the kang, put on his shoes and left, and Wang Shijing sent him out. Shopkeeper Xu looked at Shao Yun'an pitifully. Shao Yun'an had a headache. He had something that could make a lot of money, so why bother to rely on chrysanthemum tea. But he has no plans to expose Longjing tea.
"Brother Shao, just help me." Shopkeeper Xu was very moved by Patriarch Sun's words, no matter what, he had to get chrysanthemum tea today.
Shao Yun'an rubbed his forehead: "Master Xu, I don't grow chrysanthemums in my field. There are only a few chrysanthemums on the mountain in the west of the village, and there are not many of them. The rest of the chrysanthemums are all bought by the patriarch Sun's family. Now I have no hands, energy, and materials. You Isn't this embarrassing me?"
"Brother Shao, think of a way, and I'll pay you ten taels a catty."
Shao Yun'an smiled: "Are you not afraid of losing money?"
Shopkeeper Xu smiled mysteriously: "If you take this thing to the capital, you can only make money, and you will never lose money."
Shao Yunan let out a sigh, not because he was moved, but because he was really too lazy to do this business, but shopkeeper Xu acted like he would not leave unless you gave me chrysanthemum tea. Just take the high-end route."
"What is the high-end route?"
Wang Shijing came in, sat quietly beside Shao Yunan, and heard Shao Yunan say: "I make chrysanthemum tea purely for fun, mainly for my family to drink, and then give it to friends. I can give you chrysanthemum tea for shopkeeper Xu at most five times a year." Ten catties, but I can assure you that the chrysanthemum tea I gave you is absolutely unique in terms of appearance and brewed taste, so shopkeeper Xu, you should sell this chrysanthemum tea as scented tea instead of medicinal materials. Treat it as scented tea , You just need to put some effort into the packaging and content of this thing, plus my unique appearance and taste, let alone whether you have money to buy it, at that time, you have to have enough status to buy it with money."
Shopkeeper Xu's heart beat a little faster,
"Shopkeeper Xu, wait."
Shao Yun'an got out of bed and went out. Shopkeeper Xu watched him leave, turned his head and said to the expressionless Wang Shijing, "Brother Shijing really married a capable wife!"
The corner of Wang Shijing's mouth immediately raised: "I, my wife is capable."
Shao Yun'an returned to his own room, locked the door and entered the space. Among his collections, he dug out a pure wooden box containing tea and put the tea in another box, he dug out a bag of Qi Qi and dumped it in the wooden box, found a few more red dates, and put the tea in another box. He found a white porcelain jar from his large collection of tea leaves, opened it to look at the contents, yes, and then came out of the space.
Holding the box and a jar, Shao Yunan returned to the next door. He sat down on the Kang and said, "Brother Jing, bring some chrysanthemum tea."
Wang Shijing was in this room to get chrysanthemum tea. Shopkeeper Xu looked greedily at Wang Shijing pouring out some golden dried chrysanthemums from the tea pot by the window, and almost couldn't resist grabbing them.
Shao Yunan opened the wooden box, poured the wolfberry and red dates inside on the table, then took two dried chrysanthemums, shaped them, arranged them, and put down a few wolfberries and two red dates beside them. For the red dates, he chose small golden silk dates, so as not to overwhelm the host, the shopkeeper Xu and Wang Shijing looked curious, not knowing what he was going to do.
Two dried chrysanthemums, ten goji berries, and two golden jujubes. There are square grooves in the box, which just fills one groove. After everything is arranged, Shao Yunan turns the wooden box and turns to Shopkeeper Xu.
"How about the chrysanthemum tea in this box?"
Shopkeeper Xu's eyes sparkled: "It's beautiful! It's much more pleasing to the eye than that handful of chrysanthemum tea."
"Chrysanthemum, Chinese wolfberry and red dates are all good materials that are carefully selected. They combine the effects of chrysanthemum, wolfberry and red dates. After soaking, they still have a bitter and sweet taste. They are neatly matched together, and then packed Putting it into a tasteful wooden box, it still has such efficacy and extraordinary taste, shopkeeper Xu, how much do you think such a box of health-care tea should cost?"
Shopkeeper Xu's eyes widened: "Wonderful, wonderful!"
"Since Shopkeeper Xu's owner has a background in the capital, why not make more use of it? The most important thing in the capital is dignitaries, and the most important thing for dignitaries is money. You say, they like this high-end and elegant chrysanthemum tea box, or a pharmacy Grab a handful of chrysanthemum tea?"
"Naturally the former!"
"The health-cultivating tea paired with chrysanthemums can be changed. How to change it? Shopkeeper Xu can just ask the doctor. As long as the properties of the medicine complement each other and the effect is mild. I can also provide a special chrysanthemum tea for shopkeeper Xu. The appearance and flower shape are the best, and you can make a cup of Jinsihuangchrysanthemum tea with one flower. This Jinsihuangchrysanthemum is one serving, one is the same price, and there is no need to match it with others. Anyway, it is It is necessary to focus on the upper-class people who are sold, and make them feel that only such chrysanthemum tea is worthy of their status. What shopkeeper Xu has to do is to make the limited chrysanthemum tea on hand as high-end as possible, Take the upper route."
"Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful!" Shopkeeper Xu could only say wonderful.
"Brother Jing, I'll make a cup of high-end chrysanthemum tea for Shopkeeper Xu."
Wang Shijing went to fetch hot water.
Shao Yunan took two white porcelain tea bowls again, Wang Shijing came in with a pot of hot water, Shao Yunan put a portion of chrysanthemum, wolfberry and red dates into the tea bowl, poured hot water, and as the dried chrysanthemum slowly unfolded, shopkeeper Xu breathed Hasty.
"Very beautiful!"
"It's not even the prettiest."
Shao Yun'an smiled mysteriously, picked up the white porcelain tea pot he had brought in just now, opened it, and took out a dried chrysanthemum from inside. As soon as he saw the chrysanthemum, doubts flashed across Wang Shijing's one eye. This dried chrysanthemum was very big. Shao Yunan put it into another tea bowl and poured hot water. When the dried chrysanthemum unfolded, shopkeeper Xu exclaimed, "This is it!"
Wang Shijing firmly restrained the surprise on his face.
Shao Yunan glanced at Wang Shijing and said with a smile: "This is the wild chrysanthemum that I and Brother Jing carefully picked out, and it may be a different variety. The difference. Shopkeeper Xu, look, this kind of chrysanthemum can make a cup with only one flower. Does the extended petal look like gold thread? ', shopkeeper Xu, try these two cups of chrysanthemum tea again."
Shopkeeper Xu's hands trembled a little, what was in front of him was not a chrysanthemum, but silver!
After tasting two kinds of chrysanthemum tea, shopkeeper Xu's voice trembled: "Brother Shao, if you can, sell them all to me."
"Haha." Shao Yun'an put the can of chrysanthemum tea on the table, "I only have two cans, and I can only give one to shopkeeper Xu, and you can't buy this by the catty."
"Naturally, how about three taels of silver for a flower? I'll take five taels a catty for the little flower, and another two hundred taels of silver for Brother Shao's idea just now."
Shao Yun'an said: "This 'Golden Silk Emperor Chrysanthemum' is really rare, I didn't intend to sell it at first. So I am not modest about the price, one flower is three taels of silver, ordinary ones, shopkeeper Xu doesn't have to charge five taels , mine is better than Patriarch Sun’s and the others, so shopkeeper Xu will take it for three or two catties, and it’s not much, the idea fee is not as good as waiting for shopkeeper Xu to succeed before giving it to me.”
"It will definitely work!" Shopkeeper Xu was very excited, "How much can this 'Golden Silk Emperor Chrysanthemum' Brother Shao supply me in a year?"
"It's hard to say. Brother Jing and I are going to try planting some. In this way, in the future, at least 50% of the golden silk chrysanthemums produced here will be supplied to shopkeeper Xu. I have to keep some for myself and give them away."
"good!"
"I guarantee 50% of ordinary chrysanthemum tea a year. If there is more, I will give priority to the shopkeeper."
"good!"
The two of them did not write a contract for this transaction, because Shao Yun'an could not provide much. To sell at a high price, it had to rely on the operation of Xu's shopkeeper in the capital. Anyway, the focus was on high-end people. There are 103 silk emperor chrysanthemums, a total of 309 taels of silver, and shopkeeper Xu counts as 310 taels. Ordinary chrysanthemum tea Shao Yunan can give 40 catties, a total of 120 taels of silver, plus the 200 taels that the shopkeeper must give, the total is 630 taels.
Shao Yun'an was still thinking that shopkeeper Xu would go back to get the money, but he went out for a trip and came back with a box in his arms. The box contained a total of 630 taels of silver ingots, which he had prepared.
Shao Yun'an didn't plan to make money from chrysanthemum tea, but he easily earned 630 taels. At noon, shopkeeper Xu stayed for dinner, and Shao Yunan made mapo tofu, boiled pork slices, vinegar potato shreds (the two children's favorite), fish-flavored eggplant, and pork ball radish soup.
Shopkeeper Xu sat at the dining table looking at the dishes, and doubted his identity as the shopkeeper of Yizhangxuan. Yizhangxuan is a restaurant, but he has never eaten these dishes! The shopkeeper Xu looked at Shao Yun'an, wishing he could pack him up and take him away.
Shao Yun'an didn't talk nonsense and asked Wang Shijing to pick up the chopsticks.
"start!"
Wang Qing and Nizi stretched out their chopsticks to pick up the shredded potatoes first, and then rushed to the uneaten boiled pork slices and mapo tofu. Chili is a must-have for the people in the cold winter areas of Dayan Kingdom. Yongxiu County is at the junction of the north and the south. There are both north and south tastes. Wang Shijingtian fought for three years in the northern part of Sereng, and his favorite food is spicy food. Shopkeeper Xu keeps chopsticks, and Wang Shijing is also immersed in eating. The two children are so happy that they want to cry. How can the dishes made by the little dad be so good? eat!
In the end, I ate everything except the soup with boiled sliced meat, including the pot of pork ball and radish soup. Shopkeeper Xu burped in embarrassment. Shao Yun'an smiled and said, "Which dish does Shopkeeper Xu like? I'll write the recipe for you."
Shopkeeper Xu felt embarrassed: "I've already taken a fancy to it."
"Haha..." As expected.
Shopkeeper Xu wanted to take away the five-course menu, and Shao Yunan wanted to give it away for free, but shopkeeper Xu refused to say anything. He strongly urged Shao Yun'an to sign a contract with him. He could not save these five dishes to others, so he bought them for 500 taels of silver. Shao Yunan signed with him, but he only paid 100 taels, and the vinegar potato shreds and pork ball radish soup had no technical content at all, so they were free. Shopkeeper Xu didn't refuse any more, he took off a suet jade pendant worn around his waist and gave it to Wang Qing, and Shao Yunan asked Wang Qing to take it.
The shopkeeper Xu left, and brought a large amount of money-making business to his boss. Shopkeeper Xu had a premonition that in the future, the owner might rely on this mysterious brother Shao to become the richest businessman in Dayan Country. Shopkeeper Xu still doesn't know that in the future, a formidable person will compete with his boss for the title of No. 1 merchant in the Great Yan Kingdom.
Shopkeeper Xu left contentedly. After cleaning up, the couple went back to the house to rest. As soon as the door was closed, Shao Yun'an asked, "Brother Jing, don't you want to ask?" The jar of golden silk chrysanthemum, the wooden box that had never been seen in the house, and the wolfberry and golden silk jujube that were never in the house.
"I don't ask." Wang Shijing hugged Shao Yun'an and said in a muffled voice.
Shao Yunan asked again: "You don't want to know?"
"I want to, but I won't ask you, wait until you are willing to tell me."
"Then what if I keep refusing to tell you?"
"Then I won't ask." Wang Shijing's voice became more muffled, "Whether you tell me or not, you are my wife."
How could this person not want to know, but he just didn't want to force him. Shao Yunan rubbed Wang Shijing's chest and hugged his waist: "Give me some more time."
"I wait."
"Brother Jing, do you like me?" Shao Yunan raised his head.
Wang Shijing's jaw muscles tensed for a moment, and he pressed Shao Yun'an's head back to his chest, preventing him from seeing his expression: "I like it. Yun'an, I deserve it..." Shao Yun'an's hand knocked back his last words.
"Don't say such things in the future, it's not what you say, but I think, I don't want to have children, I hate the appearance of a big belly, and I can't bear the pain of having children, so it's best for you to have children. I also hate restraint , you gave me absolute freedom, if I were someone else, I'm afraid I would have been divorced long ago. I don't like women by nature, so it's just right to marry you. So you and I are very suitable. "
Wang Shijing lowered his head, his lips touched Shao Yunan's head, and all the muscles in his body exerted force.
"Give me some more time, I promise you, it won't be too long."
"Um."
"I'm actually very glad that Wang Zhisong retired and let you marry me."
"Don't mention him! You should be mine."
"Then... If your ex-wife came back to find you one day, what would you do?"
"I have reconciled with her. I am sorry for her, but she is also sorry for me when she left Brother Qing and Nizi. When she left, she also took all the money I left her. There is nothing at all. Leave it to Brother Qing and Nizi, I have settled with her." After a pause, "The one I like is you."
"If you dare to empathize with another in the future, I will definitely cut off your five taels of meat to soak in wine, no joke."
Wang Shijing only felt the next pain: "I won't give you this chance."
"Well, if you have money, go to Uncle Lizheng's house and buy the mountain quickly."
"I'm going right now!"
