Chapter 247: tea house

Views:

Inside the restaurant.

Others were talking loudly, even talking about 'Teng Qingshan', but Teng Qingshan himself ate quickly, not long after, Teng Qingshan put his chopsticks on the table.

"Heizi, I'm going to the tea house, you eat slowly." Teng Qingshan got up.

"The tea house will not close until night at least. Brother Qin, what are you in a hurry for?" You take care of it. Are you tired of carrying a suitcase when you go to the tea house?"

Teng Qingshan smiled mysteriously: "I can't leave this box, I don't feel at ease if others take it."

"Oh." Heizi suddenly understood in his heart.

It seems that Teng Qingshan's money is hidden in the box.

Teng Qingshan was wearing a felt hat, a thick cotton robe, and a scimitar hanging from his waist. He had a strong build and a dark complexion. Judging from his attire, he looked like a resident of Youyan Land. The two prefectures of Youyan are a place of bitter cold, and the folk customs are extremely fierce. Because of the fierce folk customs created by fighting with many tribes on the prairie for a long time, the Youyan people are very bold, and at the same time, if they disagree with each other, they can splatter five feet of blood!

Therefore, on the land of Kyushu, outsiders are generally unwilling to provoke Youyan people.

This also makes some businessmen, even if they are not from Youyan, deliberately dress up as Youyan, at least to bluff people.

"Hoo, hoo~~"

The cold wind is blowing.

But there were a lot of people on the streets of Huacheng, Teng Qingshan walked leisurely with his suitcases in hand, at this moment, it was dinner time, there were quite a few people around who wanted to eat in restaurants.

"Second sister, is Teng Qingshan really as handsome as you say?"

"Little sister, don't you believe me? Although I am a peripheral disciple, I also went to see the public competition between Commander Teng and Commander Zang Feng. Commander Teng... tsk tsk, he is not as ugly as some warriors. On the contrary, he is very handsome. But , That marksmanship is really good! After a few shots in a row, Commander Zang Feng was defeated. In Guiyuanzong, there are many female disciples who want to marry Commander Teng. However, it is not our turn."

A voice came from the side.

Teng Qingshan glanced to the side, and saw two men and two women walking forward together, in the same direction as himself, talking to a girl in red fur: "Is she from Yuanzong?"

"Xiao Lian, that Teng Qingshan is also being hunted down by the whole world now, like a lost dog. Do you still think about that Teng Qingshan?" Behind him, a young man in brocade clothes said with a light smile.

"How do you talk?" The girl in red fur frowned, "Commander Teng, he was hunted down by the whole world on Qinghu Island! That's because many law enforcement elders on Qinghu Island died at the hands of Commander Teng... Qinghu Island Gui Yuanzong and I were originally enemies. Commander Teng did a great service! What's more, looking at the world, how many people are worthy of Qinghu Island? Master Hua, if you can achieve 10% of Commander Teng's achievement, I will not If I say marrying you, I will be your concubine, and I agree. If you have no skills, don't talk about it."

Another man with thick eyebrows and big eyes smiled: "Brother Hua, are you tired? Xiaolian and others who return to Yuanzong are the ones who don't want to hear bad things about Teng Qingshan."

The brocade-clothed boy could only apologize with a wry smile: "Xiaolian, I was wrong, that's fine! 10% achievement? If I can reach innate in this life, I will be satisfied."

Soon, the two men and two women entered a big restaurant.

Teng Qingshan felt a little touched in his heart: "At least, the disciples of Guiyuanzong didn't regard me as a traitor!"

These days, no one is stupid.

From many things, everyone can guess many things. In Guiyuanzong, not only was Teng Qingshan not a traitor, but on the contrary, many disciples of Guiyuanzong worshiped and admired him even more.

After walking for quite a while, Teng Qingshan arrived at Qingyang Tea House.

'Qingyang Tea House' four-character gilded horizontal plaque was hung at the main entrance of the tea house, and there were also four guards standing at the main entrance of the tea house, Teng Qingshan walked over directly.

One of the guards stretched out his hand to stop him: "We Qingyang Tea House does not sell tea loosely. If you want to buy tea, go to the tea shop or bar in front."

"I'm a businessman from Yanzhou." Teng Qingshan grinned, showing his white teeth. The accent of the Youyan region made the blocking guard put down his hands and laughed: "It turns out that they are from Yanzhou thousands of miles away. Our Qingyang Tea House has a lot of good tea bricks. Please, please."

The guard immediately led the way.

It must be a big deal to be able to come here from the northernmost Yanzhou. No one will travel nearly 20,000 miles back and forth to buy only a small amount of goods.

This kind of large-scale tea houses generally only do large-scale sales business.

"Master Zhou, this is a businessman from Yanzhou." The guard led Teng Qingshan into a hall, where an old man in a luxurious black fur coat greeted him, he smiled and cupped his hands: "The old man's surname is Zhou , I don’t know who my brother is?”

"Qin, Qin Wei." Teng Qingshan spoke with a quiet accent.

In fact, the reason why Teng Qingshan can speak Youyan accent easily is because... This Youyan accent is actually more similar to the Northeast region accent in the modern world in the previous life. As a killer, this dialect has been trained, so... Now Teng Qingshan can easily disguise it.

"Brother Qin, please sit down." Master Zhou and Teng Qingshan sat down together. At this time, the maid also came up with a tray and placed two teacups in front of Teng Qingshan and Master Zhou respectively.

"Drink tea." Master Zhou smiled.

Teng Qingshan also picked it up, and took a sip: "Your lips are fragrant, the soup is bright red and yellow, it's good tea."

"Brother Qin is also good at this." Master Zhou said with a smile.

"It's just eating for a living. If you don't know a little bit, how can you sell it? Master Zhou, I don't know what kind of tea bricks you have in the herbal tea shop?" Teng Qingshan laughed.

"Oh, I don't know, what grade does Brother Qin want?" Master Zhou straightened up, "In our Qingliang Tea House, tea bricks are mainly divided into five grades. The price of each grade varies greatly, like the lowest fifth grade, that is some High-temperature compression of discarded tea roots, the tea bricks are very cheap, and some ordinary people often drink these, and the higher the price, the higher the price. For example, a third-grade tea brick, a catty of tea brick, costs about five or six taels of silver. Two-grade tea bricks Tea bricks, the size of one catty, cost about twelve or three taels of silver. Because of different varieties, there are nuances! As for the highest grade tea bricks, one catty of tea bricks requires dozens of taels of silver."

Teng Qingshan was amazed: "This tea brick is worth more than silver."

One catty of tea bricks, for example, fifty taels of silver, is five catties of silver!

"The most expensive tea brick is nearly a hundred taels of silver per catty. If it is some special tea leaves, it is really more expensive than gold." Master Zhou said with a smile, "However, the quantity of those tea leaves is very small. I only got a small portion, and most of the best tea leaves were ordered by some big shots."

Teng Qingshan nodded with a smile.

Some extremely precious tea leaves, one tael of tea leaves are worth ten taels of gold, they all exist! However, that kind of layered tea leaves cannot be compressed into tea bricks.

"Second-grade tea bricks!" Teng Qingshan laughed, "In the grassland tribes, second-grade tea bricks are already excellent...there are too many goods, and it is troublesome to transport." Buy cheap tea bricks and ship them trouble. Therefore, those who run orders generally will buy more expensive tea bricks.

"Oh, brother Qin is going to sell it in the grassland?" Master Zhou was a little surprised, "That place is very chaotic."

"I don't want to make money on the waistband." Teng Qingshan said with a light smile, "Second-grade tea bricks, how many kinds do you have?"

"I have three kinds of second-grade tea bricks in stock. If you want to sell them to the prairie, I think the 'Purple Teeth Tea Brick' among the second-grade tea bricks is the best for you to sell to the prairie people! I like this 'purple tooth tea brick'." Master Zhou suggested sincerely.

Teng Qingshan nodded: "Well, what price can you give for this purple tooth tea brick? It's one catty."

"One catty, thirteen taels of silver!" Master Zhou said.

"Master Zhou, the prices in ordinary tea shops outside are not much more expensive than what you said, let's talk about a more honest price!" Teng Qingshan laughed, "Besides, I buy a lot of goods, and everyone who has money can earn together."

"How much do you buy?" Master Zhou asked.

"Eight hundred bricks!" Teng Qingshan said.

Master Zhou's eyes lit up, this is a big business, and ordinary civilians only earn ten or twenty taels of silver a year. This catty of tea bricks costs thirteen taels of silver, obviously only the rich can enjoy it. And 800 revolutions... is indeed a big deal.

"What price do you want?" Master Zhou asked.

Teng Qingshan said directly: "Ten taels of silver per brick!"

"This is too low." Master Zhou said repeatedly.

Teng Qingshan shook his head and said: "Master Zhou, this is not cheap. Even if the locals get goods here, it is probably a little more expensive than mine. But I bought 800 bricks of second-grade goods at one time! I have traveled all the way to The prairie, it’s life-threatening. You can also help a little. I also want to buy another red fire horse with you, one thousand taels of silver! Is it possible?"

Master Zhou thought for a while, and then laughed: "Brother Qin, all right. Eight hundred bricks of second-grade goods, plus a red fire horse, total nine thousand taels of silver!"

In fact, ten taels of silver per brick, Master Zhou was a little hesitant. But Teng Qingshan bought the red fire horse again, on the red fire horse, they can also earn two or three hundred taels of silver. So, together, they nodded.

In the warehouse, two large boxes were being placed there with the lids opened.

Master Zhou, Teng Qingshan, and many people from the tea house are here.

Teng Qingshan opened the small box he was carrying. Inside the box were some clothes and other ordinary items. Teng Qingshan took out some silver notes from the pocket of his clothes, and some silver notes from his bosom. Master Zhou was not surprised that day, there were too many ways for businessmen to hide banknotes.

"My suitcase, put it on the side of this big box." Teng Qingshan put the small box upright against the side of the big box, "Okay, let's put tea bricks. In the big box on the left, put less tea bricks. I can take the suitcase in the future. The big box on the right, put more tea bricks."

"yes."

The people of the tea house immediately began to put in pieces of tea bricks, and Teng Qingshan also took out one at random, opened the wrapped paper, and drew out a little bit of tea powder.

"This purple tooth tea brick is absolutely good tea." That week, the master quickly helped to make tea.

After brewing a cup, Teng Qingshan tasted it, and then nodded in satisfaction.

To pretend to be a businessman, one has to look like one from beginning to end.
