Chapter 148 Tell you bad news

"this……"

If you predict when there will be rain, based on the animal prediction methods taught to him by Li You and the experience accumulated by the Imperial Heaven Critics, Li Chunfeng can still say a word or two, but this prediction of sunny days has not been studied.

However, Wei Zheng was next to him, and he couldn't lose his chain. He saw Li You's eyes and thought for a moment, and then he understood. It was rainy now, and Li You asked this, of course he hoped that he would say there would be a sunny day.

Li Chunfeng said: "It should be."

Li You quickly said, "Master Li, you think the same thing as I do. In a few days, the perineum will turn sunny."

When Li Chunfeng saw Li You, he affirmed and said, "Yes, it will definitely be sunny."

Li You said, "Okay, the merchants are here later, please explain it to everyone."

Li Chunfeng was shocked last time, but he was lucky in disguise. He knew that Li You had given him another chance to become famous. This time, if the weather is predicted again, Li Chunfeng's reputation will definitely be greatly boosted.

He said, "Your Highness, you will tell me at that time that I will come to prove it."

Wei Zheng couldn't understand what kind of play they were acting in, nor did he understand what the matter had to do with the weather. He always wanted to ask, but he had to keep his promises before his agreement.

...

Since Tuyuhun returned, Cheng Chuliang was transferred to the position of Jinwu Guard Zhenwei Captain and stayed in Chang'an.

At this moment, according to Yuchi Gong's order, he took the roster of drug dealers from the West City Bureau and sent soldiers to summon drug dealers according to the address registered on the roster.

In a yard in Fengyifang, drug dealer Liu Kan heard that the people from the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce came, so he came out to greet him, but saw two soldiers following the visitor.

The visitor said, "Shopkeeper Liu, I am on the order of President Jia. I ask you to go to the Qi Palace for a meeting. His Highness the King of Qi will meet you in person."

Liu Kan heard that His Highness King Qi wanted to see him, and he had no relationship with him on weekdays, so he didn't know what he was doing to him.

However, Liu Kan was not stupid, and immediately guessed Li You's intention, knowing that it must be related to the purchase of medicinal materials by the imperial court. Moreover, he guessed that he must ask them to sell medicinal materials with a lower price.

He felt that he could not go. After he went there, the King of Qi told him about this matter in person, and agreed that he would suffer losses. If he did not agree, he would offend the King of Qi, and he would probably cause trouble. After all, the King of Qi had been known for being generous for many years.

He said, "Oh, there is something urgent in the little man's family, and I'm afraid he can't go."

At this time, the soldier behind the person pulled out half of his waist, intentionally or unintentionally, and Liu Kan immediately broke out in cold sweat.

He had heard that King Qi was a good person. In the palace, he dared to break the eunuch's deputy general manager's leg. Even if he was a small citizen, he was killed, and he didn't know where to go to complain.

He immediately said, "Uh, I'll go right away, I'll explain the family matters and leave."

The soldier inserted his knife into the scabbard and said impatiently: "Hurry up, Your Highness, Your Highness, you don't have time to wait for you."

The Palace of King Qi.

Before lunch, 71 drug dealers of all sizes in Chang'an City were invited to the Qi Palace.

Jia Jinxian presided over the meeting, and he introduced Li You, Wei Zheng and Li Chunfeng.

The merchants felt much more at ease when they saw Wei Zheng present. Wei Zheng was famously fair and selfless. With him, His Highness King of Qi should not do anything wrong.

Jia Jinxian said: "Dear shopkeepers, Your Highness King Qi is very caring for our businessmen. Last time, we won our children the opportunity to take the imperial examination and be an official. Moreover, Your Highness King Qi also agreed that he will further fight for our businessmen's rights in the future.

Today, His Highness King Qi needs everyone’s help if you have something to do, so please help me.”

The businessmen still recognize Li You and admire his business talents very much. However, if Li You asked them to bleed heavily and sell herbal medicines at a lower price, they would not agree.

Everyone had already made up their minds. No matter what Li You said, they did not agree to lower the price and sell medicine. No one was willing to miss such a good opportunity to make a fortune.

Therefore, after Jia Jinxian finished speaking, everyone said nothing and the venue was silent.

Wei Zheng felt half-hearted when he saw this situation.

Li You spoke. He said: "Dear shopkeepers, everyone knows my views on business. Here, I can say with certainty that business is a very important part of the social life of the Tang Dynasty and is indispensable.

The court has instructed me to establish a commercial office in the research institute and agreed to establish the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce. This is the beginning of improving commercial status. In the future, the commercial status will be further improved.

Of course, as business status increases, the status of businessmen will also rise."

"Buzzing" is good news, and the businessmen are very excited and have a lot of discussion.

However, if Li You suggested that the merchants make less money, there would still be no way.

Sure enough, Li You talked about the main topic and said: "At present, there is a plague in Chang'an City. There is already a prescription for treating the plague, but the medicinal materials are very lacking.

I know you have it in your hands.”

Speaking of this, the merchants were nervous.

Li You looked at everyone's expressions and smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, listen to me talk slowly.

You have medicinal materials in your hands, and they are your own. They have accumulated hard and you have to wait for a good opportunity to make money. It is natural to be able to sell them at a high price now. You can sell them whatever you want, and no one has the right to interfere."

Hearing this, the businessmen's faces improved much.

Li You said: "Of course you have to wait for a good opportunity to make money, but what is a good opportunity? That is, when there is no stock, hurry up and make money. If you miss the opportunity, you won't make money. I'm right."

The businessmen nodded in agreement, this is the most basic principle of doing business.

Li You said: "The Chang'an Chamber of Commerce was established. I support it. The Chamber of Commerce serves the interests of merchants. I support you in making money, but I have no objection.

But you have to seize the opportunity to make money. I tell you, you will soon lose the opportunity to make money."

The merchants didn't understand what he meant, and someone asked, "Your Highness, please tell me in detail."

Li You said: "The current plague is actually influenza, which is divided into different types..."

He first introduced the knowledge about toxic influenza.

"So that's how it is." The merchants talked.

Li You continued, "Everyone understands it. As long as the temperature rises for a period of time, the flu will naturally fade away.

There is news now, which is good news for the people of Chang'an, and for you, it is probably bad news.”

After saying that, he signaled Li Chunfeng to speak.

Li Chunfeng was wearing a Taoist robe and Taoist bones, saying, "I have observed the astronomical phenomena recently. In these few days, the rainy weather will disappear, and there will be a period of clear weather.

If it is not sunny within three days, I will ask the Emperor Taishang to give Chang'an a clear weather."

Since Li Chunfeng accurately predicted the rain, especially the falling fish and shrimps in the sky, Li Chunfeng has been revealed. Everyone believed in Li Zhenren's words.

Li You said, "Everyone understand. I want to tell you something bad news - the imperial court has urgently transferred medicinal materials from other places to Chang'an. Soon, the medicinal materials in your hands can no longer be sold."
