Chapter 16: Big Sale

The stall was well-stacked and the salt water was cooked, but the appearance of the salt made people feel a little worried. It looks good and white, but it doesn’t look like salt.

Li Xiao ordered Liu San and others to go and pick up the guests. Seeing Chen Zhengtai sitting behind the counter, Chen Fu excitedly took a fan to fan him. Chen Zhengtai was lying on his back, enjoying himself comfortably, and acting like a young man.

Li Xiao couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Now everyone has no wages. After selling 100 yuan of goods, they only give a copper coin a share. This salt... seems to be a necessity needed by the people, but there are so many salt merchants in Chang'an City, and each of them has its own stable customer base. The Chen family suddenly sells salt. Where can they sell it?

When Liu San came back from the street, he indeed brought many passers-by guests. When these people heard that they had free salt water, they cheered and flocked to them.

You should know that salt is a necessity, so it is expensive. Ordinary people can eat a pound of salt for half a year, which is a waste of time.

Sometimes, salt is comparable to gold. After all, salt extracted from ancient methods consumes manpower, fuel, and has extremely low yields. In addition, due to the extremely high tax, the price has always remained high.

However... the poorer people had to replace them with vinegar cloth or lower salt.

This salt water is a good thing for many people, and it is useless to drink it.

A large pot was set up in front of the shop. The water in the pot had boiled. The guys took many pottery bowls, pinched some salt, carefully sprinkled them into the pottery bowl, and then scooped boiling water. This bowl of salty water was boiled.

Chen Zhengtai then stood up from behind the counter and arrived in front of the door. He said with a look of red light: "Dear fellows, our Chen family has done some small business here over the years. Thanks to the care of his fellows, it was maintained. Today, our Chen family turned to selling salt, which is considered as a reward for the opening of the business. We specially boiled salt water for everyone to try."

Some of them nodded, and some whispered: "Who is this person?"

"I heard it was the young master of the Chen family."

"Is that...that Chen family..."

"Who else can you?"

So... everyone suddenly realized.

Chang'an City is well-informed and has many people who are interested in it, so I still have a little hearing about the "Chen Family".

Looking at Chen Zhengtai's appearance again, I think it is a young man from the Chen family.

Why do you look like a fool? Do you think that if you drink salt water for someone for nothing, others will buy your salt? It's so easy.

"I heard that the young master of the Chen family only knows that he is a nerd when he is stupid."

"Oh, what you said, the Chen family has been counting for three generations. Is there anyone who is not a nerd?" Chen Zhengtai's ears pointed, and these soft comments inevitably penetrated into his ears.

I didn't expect that my Chen family seemed to have a bad reputation.

So he pulled his face down and said, "I'm kind to treat you to salt water. Why? Don't you want to eat salt water, but you still want to hang salt water? If you like it, get out if you don't eat it!"

When Chen Fu heard this, he was shocked, and he also crossed his hands and rolled up his sleeves to hit someone.

Everyone was frightened.

To be honest, if Chen Zhengtai was still smiling, everyone would have to talk more. But when they saw the ferocious young master of the Chen family, they couldn't help but feel timid. The lean camel is bigger than a horse. Even if the Chen family in Mengjin is defeated, it is not something ordinary people can provoke.

So half of the people left, but many people were still looking forward to a free drink of salt water.

Seeing them like this, Chen Zhengtai became calm and composed. Sure enough... he was too young to be able to hold on. In addition, the Chen family has been criticized over the years, which makes people underestimate him. He should be more aggressive.

Seeing that everyone was staring at the bowls of salt water, they didn't dare to go forward.

Chen Zhengtai said, "Come on, come and eat."

Everyone: "..."

The scene was quiet and silent.

Chen Zhengtai gritted his teeth: "Stay in a hurry and eat whatever you do. If you don't eat, break your legs!"

call......

Everyone took a breath.

Li Xiao felt that his heart... fell to the bottom.

This is not a business, is this a mountain king?

Young Master... This is not how you do business.

Finally, a brave man stepped forward: "Okay, drink it, Mr. Xie gives me water. I, Chen Jian, traveled around the world and had never seen anyone who forced me to drink water. I will taste it today."

After saying that, he stepped forward and took a bowl of salt water. Chen Jian pouted and blew into the hot water.

It took him a sip of salt water without delay.

A slight salty smell suddenly stimulated his taste buds in the tip of his tongue.

This is......

It has a completely strange feeling, no bitter taste, just a little salty, and the salty taste is particularly refreshing.

Chen Jian was not afraid of hotness, as if he didn't believe it, and couldn't help but drink a sip of salt water, making a smacking sound from his mouth. Then he stood there, and then... the pottery bowl in his hand was not firmly grasped, and with a bang... the pottery bowl fell to the ground and fell to pieces.

Li Xiao was shocked, what's wrong, this salt water is poisonous?

Others who were flirting with one another took a step back, took a breath of cold air, and seemed uneasy.

Li Xiao stepped forward and wanted to support Chen Jian. He couldn't help but think, if there was really a problem with this salt water, it would have been a problem, and I still don't know how much trouble it caused.

But when he stepped forward, he suddenly heard Chen Jian growling: "Don't move!"

Li Xiao still had stiff face.

"What's wrong with you?"

Chen Jian then seemed to come to his senses, smacked his lips, ignored Li Xiao, but looked at Chen Zhengtai: "Young Master, what kind of salt is this?"

Chen Zhengtai held his hands behind his back and said, "Chan's salt, why do you care about so much?"

"But I don't know how much the salt is for?" Everyone looked at Chen Jian strangely. This person... asked the price all the time and what to do? He finally entered the most critical link.

Chen Zhengtai took a breath, looking like he was severing and heavy: "Five hundred people per pound."

Five hundred pounds per pound... salt in ancient times was very expensive, and the best green salt on the market was only 300 pounds.

The young master of the Chen family spoke really loudly, five hundred quotations... it is better to grab them than five hundred quotations.

People were talking and whispering.

Li Xiao shook his head in his heart, selling it was too expensive, the young master was not in charge of the family and did not know that the firewood and rice were expensive.

But Chen Jian said, "It's only five hundred people?"

This is a bit strange.

Chen Zhengtai smiled: "As we all know, our Chen family has accumulated good deeds throughout the ages, and is kind and generous. We never do this soaring price. Of course, it's 500 yuan. Can you still lie to you?"

Li Xiao: "..."

The rest of the people looked at Chen Zhengtai in shock. Is this young master of the Chen family a fool? Five hundred people, are you still kind and charitable?

While everyone was silently complaining in their hearts, Chen Jian said in surprise: "Young master is such a good man."

Everyone started to feel silent again.

But when Chen Jian was energetic, he said, "Okay, I'll take ten pounds of this five hundred pounds per pound."

Ten kilograms...

Everyone looked at Chen Jian incredible.

This person... must be crazy.

Chen Jian was not crazy. He was a peddler and had seen scenes. The taste of salt was so good. It not only looked good, but also tasted, which was many times stronger than the best green salt.

You should know that this ordinary salt inevitably has astringent taste, but this salt is... mellow.

Of course, ordinary people may not be able to afford such salt, but if you buy ten or eight kilograms first and sell those high-ranking officials or wealthy families, five hundred ounces... it is considered a small amount.

Just when everyone was stunned, Chen Jian did not hesitate and weighed ten kilograms of salt with lotus leaves. He left in a row as if holding a treasure. He had to set off quickly and try the sales of this white salt in Guandong. I wonder if the price doubled and could be sold. If the transaction was done well, he would have to come to Chen Ji to purchase goods in the future.

Everyone then realized. Many people became curious and rushed forward to taste the salt water. After some people ate it, they couldn't help but make a squeaking sound in their mouths and exclaimed, it was so delicious.

"It smells so good!"

Some past business travelers also made up their minds like Chen Jian.

In just a moment, a whole truck... more than 600 kilograms of salt were wiped out.

Liu San was particularly excited and his heart was about to jump into his throat. It was only a afternoon. The salt sold from him was about 100 kilograms. One hundred kilograms was a fifty-ten-ton business income. Didn’t Mr. Chen make the rules? The guys got paid according to their work. If they sold goods worth 1,000 kilograms, they could get a reward of 10 cents. In other words, in a blink of an eye,

I earned five hundred cents.

Five hundred liters are enough to support the whole family for a month.

Although life is still a little harder, it's only noon... This salt is particularly popular because many merchants and peddlers come here and buy five or ten pounds. Liu Sanxin is like a mirror. These people are rushing to buy these new goods and go to other places to sell them. After all,... such good white salt is unprecedented.

Become rich.

If I could have so much every day, wouldn’t I get fifteen stakes of money in one month? Fifteen stakes of money, which is thirty times the income I had when I worked in the Chen family.

The whole shop is already crazy.

"Young master, it's out of stock, it's out of stock, hurry up... I have to get salt in again."
