Chapter 487: A gift from His Majesty(1/2)
When Wu Qi saw that the bottle was smashed, his eyebrows didn't tremble.
In Buddhist terms, all this is empty, just a dream.
But she sighed and said, "Mr., no matter what, it is still 5,100 coins."
Chen Zhengtai said: "Because I spent 5,100 coins, it was only 5,100 coins in the eyes of others. But in my eyes, it was just a handful of soil. I burned it with soil for a few hours and put some glaze on it, so it became valuable. For some people, this is a rare treasure, but to the people who control it behind it, it is nothing."
Wu Qi frowned and said, "But... I will still need to clean it up later."
Chen Zhengtai couldn't help but smile and said, "I'll give you a few beautiful maids to you and let them be responsible for cleaning and taking care of you."
Wu Qi shook his head seriously: "No, the study is a key place. There are too many confidential things involved here, which is to train those women who are studying mathematics. Every time they come in, I need to pay attention. How can I let people come in and out to clean it? If something is leaked for a while, it will be inappropriate."
Chen Zhengtai didn't have such meticulous thoughts, and after hearing her words, he stopped mentioning them.
Wu Qi then said: "This time after the auction, and the price has been controlled at 18 guan. By the next time, the price is controlled at 19 guan through the supply and demand. Then... the next shipment can be doubled. However... my teacher, I have a question, why when we build a computing model, our supply volume is getting higher and higher, but now many people also have fine porcelain in their hands. Don't you worry about their selling and disrupting the market?"
This is something that Wu Qi has always been worried about.
The value of Jingci has certainly been controlled by the Chen family.
But...When more and more fine porcelain flowing into the market, then who can ensure that these people who own fine porcelain will not sell it on a large scale?
Once people sell it one after another, even the Chen family may not be able to rescue the market quickly, and the price may eventually plummet.
Therefore, Wu Xi believes that this is the biggest risk of the current Jingci business.
Chen Zhengtai shook his head and said, "So you must ensure that it grows in an orderly manner. Only its value will be at least a consistent increase of money, and at least 500 cents will it increase. Then such a thing will never happen. Come on, I will teach you this principle."
As he said that, Chen Zhengtai sat down, while Wu Qi showed his ears and listened, absorbing Chen Zhengtai's knowledge hungrily. Chen Zhengtai said: "If you have a porcelain bottle in your hand, this porcelain bottle will not require you to spend any effort. Its value will increase in vain every month, then will you sell it unless necessary?"
Wu Xi thought about it and shook his head: "No, because since I can sell 19 guan next month, why should I sell 18 guan this month?"
"That's the reason." Chen Zhengtai continued with a romance: "Unless people are eager to use money, most people will hide the porcelain bottle at home, because when there is an expectation of a rise in the porcelain bottle, it is stupid to sell the porcelain bottle."
Wu Qi nodded: "But... there is another question. Are there no smart people? There is nothing in this world that has been growing in value. Can't they see it?"
"There are smart people in the world." Chen Zhengtai thought for a while, then smiled and said, "Or it is, there are no stupid people in this world. But in this process, human intelligence is useless, because intelligence can never occupy another characteristic of human beings, that is, human greed."
"So, as long as we promote the rise of fine porcelain forever, people will believe it?"
Chen Zhengtai shook his head: "Our Chen family itself said that the essence porcelain will keep rising. What's the use? In fact, we don't have to promote it at all."
"Why is this?" Wu Xi felt even more incredible.
Chen Zhengtai smiled and said, "Because naturally, there will be people who will promote us and promote these people...that is, the so-called stakeholders. Think about it, if it were you, you bought a Jingci home with your net worth, and you watched its value continue to rise. At this time, your reason may tell yourself, how could there be such an incredible thing in the world, and you will be puzzled. But... you are already related to Jingci's interests, and at this time... you will deceive yourself.
If you cheat, you will keep telling yourself that in fact... Jing porcelain will definitely rise. Why? You will come up with a reason, or even many reasons, and then rack your brains to tell the people around you from the bottom of your heart why Jing porcelain has been rising, or even... Smarter people will start to develop an impeccable theory, a theory, or a principle to constantly repeat the principle of Jing porcelain rising. This... is the real human heart."
"So, what we have to do now is to sell our fine porcelain with confidence and boldness and control the price. When there are more people in this thing, the more people defend this theory of rise. People will repeatedly deceive themselves and constantly tell themselves and others that the output of fine porcelain is too rare, so it is natural to rise. Or to people, the glaze on fine porcelain shows how high the skills it shows, it should be worth a higher value. Do you understand what I mean? Three people become tigers, and everyone's mouths make gold. But all this is that these three people and everyone's mouths have fine porcelain at home."
After listening to Chen Zhengtai's analysis carefully, Wu Xi suddenly realized: "I understand, it's like, I am a disciple and secretary of my mentor, and I rely on the Chen family's salary to make a living, so I will naturally defend the Chen family?"
"Ahem..." Chen Zhengtai said: "It can be explained in theory, but you can't say it so bluntly. We are not a simple relationship of interests, we have feelings."
When Wu Xi heard this, he felt a little warm in his heart, and smiled and showed a silly look: "I... I'm just an example. I roughly understand what you mean. People who defend the price... In the future, it's not just the Chen family. As long as the Jing porcelain is sold more and more, in the end, it's the people who really defend Jing porcelain are the people of the world."
Chen Zhengtai smiled and said, "Whoever has money will defend Jingci the most. Because rich people often buy the most, and they make the most profit from this Jingci. This thing... but Qiguan is a 7-cent money, and how many people work for a year, but it may not be possible to have this amount. Besides... they still need food and clothing. After a year, it is not easy to save hundreds of millions of dollars. Where can I get money to use Jingci to manage my finances?"
"So... the teacher wants to rely on this... to deal with the aristocratic clans?" After Wu Yu said this, his eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "Students understand."
Chen Zhengtai shook his head and said, "No, no, no, it's still far from it. How can the aristocratic races behave just by relying on this? It's not that it's not to use this to deal with the aristocratic races, but... It's not enough to rely on this alone. This is just an introduction. If there is no backup plan, how can it be done?"
Wu Xi felt that Chen Zhengtai became more and more mysterious. His mentor kept emphasizing the backhand, but he just didn't know what the backhand would be?
But... those aristocratic races are not fuel-efficient. They are really in a hurry. Are you not afraid of these people being anxious?
Seeing her mentor's confident look, she felt refreshed and couldn't help but say: No, her mentor must be taking the exam. I want me to guess what this backup plan is. I must try my best to guess.

At this time, at the Wei family.
Wei Xuanzhen looked regretful.
He bid for the tiger bottle to 1,900 guan. He didn't dare to continue calling out any more. In his opinion, the price was really terrible.
But I didn't expect that in the end, it was directly reached 5,100 cents. When the price was issued, everyone was shocked.
Wei Xuanzhen felt a hot heart... I just don't know who the person who won the Tiger Bottle was, and I don't know which prominent family it was.
It's also annoying. The Wei family can't even get a bottle, which makes people feel frustrated.
This is what this thing is. The more you can’t get it, the more you become.
He even thought to himself that if the deal could be made for 5,100 coins, even if the Wei family really gritted their teeth and won it, it might not be a bad thing. After all,... at this price... isn't there anybody still buying it?
If the Wei family could buy this bottle and put it here, how eye-catching would it be. The Wei family has been prosperous for hundreds of years. Isn’t it just this face?
Otherwise, why do every aristocratic clan put the sermons of his ancestors outside in front of the door? Isn’t it just to tell others that our family had such a powerful person and how prominent he was?
As for this kind of face, Wei Xuanzhen even felt that if he bought the tiger bottle, it might be more glorious than the one in this family.
"What a pity, it's a pity." Wei Xuanzhen shook her head regretfully, and then ordered the manager to say, "Next time, if there are still goods in the store, let the unfilial children in the family line up and buy as many bottles as they can. Maybe, a tiger bottle is really released!"
The manager seemed a little worried and said, "I've bought so many bottles and jars, and this house is not enough."
"I can't get it." Wei Xuanzhen said harshly, looked at the manager coldly, and continued, "Can't you put it in place, can't you save it yet? Don't look at the current... Even an ordinary bottle has risen to a price. If you buy it, you won't suffer any loss anyway. There is nothing wrong with it. Then you can store it in the warehouse."
When the manager thought about it, this was right, he said obediently: "Here."
As he said that, Wei Xuanzhen's eyes glanced at the bottle in the hall again, and couldn't help but sigh, and he couldn't help but say in his heart, why is there just one less? It's really worrying!
The more he thought about it, the more unbearable he felt. He waved his hand to the butler impatiently and said, "Go down."
Chang'an City will never be short of news, and there will be no shortage of news about Jingci. A few days ago, everyone was talking about the 5,100-month tiger bottle every day. Everyone was talking about the tiger bottle in a vivid way, and everyone looked envious and jealous.
And today, the brothers' rebellion happened again, saying that there was a brother who bought a bottle, and the younger brother wanted to share some of it, but they fought each other hard.
Of course, this is just some gossip, but gradually, there is a concept that has slowly been implanted into everyone's minds, namely: Jingci is money.
It’s not just money, but real money. Sometimes, you can’t buy it with money!

During these days, Li Shimin has been recovering from injuries. Now he has recovered a lot and can move freely.
Just after reading today's newspaper, Li Shimin's face turned dark in an instant.
Zhang Qian stood aside and secretly glanced at Li Shimin a few times, looking nervous.
The incident of the brothers' mismatch was actually just in the last page. After all, it was not a big news. When Zhang Qian came to deliver the newspaper, he read it briefly and always felt that... the news was very familiar.
[Receive cash red envelope] You can get cash by reading books! Follow WeChat. Official account [Book Fan Base], cash/point coins are waiting for you to get!
Sure enough, when it was delivered to Li Shimin, something was wrong with Li Shimin. After sending tea, he called the tea too hot and sent the meal. He thought the meal was cold again.
Of course, Zhang Qian knew what Your Majesty meant. Brothers were in harmony... Isn't it true that they were so happy that they never died? Isn't this a reminder of the Xuanwu Gate Incident? Isn't it because the two brothers were not in a different position, but as the younger brothers, they slaughtered their own brother?
Of course, Zhang Qian just felt that His Majesty was a little sensitive.
But if you can't stand it, Your Majesty will inevitably be more sensitive.
So Zhang Qian decided not to say anything today and just stand like a wooden stake.
Li Shimin looked at him and said, "Why don't you speak today? Is it because you have something to do?"
As the saying goes, I am really afraid of anything, Zhang Qian immediately said aggrievedly; "Your Majesty, I die, I don't think of anything."
Bang...
Li Shimin patted the edge of the couch hard and snorted coldly: "I didn't think about anything? Look at your deer-headed rat, you must have thought it wrong!"
"Slave...slave isn't." Zhang Qian put on a bitter face.
"You are deceiving the monarch!" Li Shimin said angrily: "Chen Zhengtai's mind was in a state of being young. He is still young. The so-called "those who do not know are not guilty, but would you not know?"
So Zhang Qian's body became weak, and he knelt down crookedly, and cried bitterly, "I dare not deceive the emperor, I really think about it."
Li Shimin said angrily: "Okay, you are really deceiving the king."
As expected, the word "two" is very spiritual.
Zhang Qian's mind began to be confused again. He felt that he could not keep up with the rhythm, but tears were still hanging in the corner of his eyes, and he said, "I... I'm dead."
Li Shimin was so angry that he said, "What's wrong with climbing? He just climbing this."
Zhang Qianbun nodded with a chicken pecking at the rice: "Yes, yes, he is so confused that he doesn't know how powerful."
Li Shimin then sank his eyebrows. Seeing his murderous look, Zhang Qian felt even more uneasy and hurriedly said tentatively: "Your Majesty... You are..."
"Don't make a noise..."
Li Shimin thought for a long time before he said lightly: "I heard that the first batch of goods sold several hundred pieces. In the second batch, 1,400 pieces were delivered. When the third batch, 3,000 pieces were shipped... Isn't the fine porcelain sold for 5,000 pieces? A seven-ton stake and a mere stake store for 35,000 pieces, it's only been more than a month. I'm looking at the Chen family... I'm sending more and more fine porcelains now, won't it be better and better in the future? So many fine porcelains... can he really sell them?"
Zhang Qian immediately said, "It's not just that I can sell it. Now it's all over Chang'an. Not only Chang'an, but there are also some street newspapers that do nothing, and they just print and buy fine porcelain... What strategy comes... It says when the goods arrive, when it's best to start queuing, what food should be brought when queuing, and what else to bring? When you encounter a guy who beats someone, how to cook. How to store fine porcelain after buying fine porcelain? If you want to sell, which treasure store is more expensive, and these messy messages are still very popular."
Zhang Qian felt that he said this, and the more he said it, the more he felt sad.
Li Shimin: “…”
"This guy... I really got into money. No wonder he had no intention of entering the court after I made him a prince." Li Shimin was envious, and he wanted to say that if I had been lying down like this every day to make money, I wouldn't want to worry about the whole world's affairs.
"I have heard that the Crown Prince also got involved. He said it was a partnership... His Crown Prince has now gone to Erpigou and secretly discussed something with Chen Zhengtai... Sometimes he stayed inside for a long time." Zhang Qian said carefully.
To be continued...
