The late emperor had many brothers, seven or eight in total, but among the many brothers of the late emperor, only Prince Jin was able to stay in the capital and became a vassal without leaving the capital!
Although Prince Jin was not able to inherit the great treasure when the imperial power was handed down six years ago, which aroused the jealousy of the emperor today, in any case, Prince Jin is also the closest blood relative to the royal family, and Li is only one step away from ascending to the throne. Lord of the house!
And for a little person like Zhang Delu who hangs out on the banks of the Qinhuai River, he cannot afford to offend the Li family clan, not to mention the Prince of Jin, who are no longer close to the royal family!
At this moment, Zhang Yuanwai had only one thought in his mind.
That’s running!
Run as far as you can!
But just when Zhang was about to leave, Shen Yi and Xu Fu had already arrived in front of the fat member. Shen Qilang was very polite, smiled and nodded at Zhang.
"Are you Zhang Yuanwai from Qinhuaihe?"
Yes, I can't run away.
Zhang Delu tried hard to calm down, and then tried his best to give Shen Yi a slightly flattering smile.
"I don't dare... I don't dare to be a member of the Communist Party of China..."
He glanced at Shen Yi, then at Xu Fu who was behind Shen Yi, then bowed his head respectfully and said: "Young Master, I don't know that this is your business, I will definitely not disturb Brother Xu's business from now on..."
After saying that, he exhaled a breath and said in a low voice: "I hope you, the villain, have not been here today..."
"No."
A bright smile appeared on Shen Qilang's face.
"Xiao Xu told me that Zhang Yuanwai wants to buy my prescription, and I happen to want to sell it, so let's find a place to sit down and talk."
With that said, Shen Yi pointed to a teahouse not far from Prince Jin's Mansion, and said with a smile: "Executive member Zhang, it's not convenient to talk here. I'll invite you to the teahouse for tea."
Zhang Delu was trembling. He glanced at Shen Yi cautiously, and then at the Jin Palace behind Shen Yi. Then he lowered his head and said: "The villain has eyes but cannot see Mount Tai. I don't know who the young master is..."
Shen Yi followed his gaze and saw Prince Jin's Mansion behind him, then showed an expression of sudden realization and smiled heartily: "It turns out that Zhang Yuanwai was scrupulous because I lived in Prince Jin's Mansion. Don't worry Zhang Yuanwai, I just I came to Jiankang for some matters, so I stayed in Prince Jin's Mansion. I have nothing to do with Prince Jin, and I am not a member of Prince Jin's Mansion."
He smiled and said: "We can discuss business as we should."
Seeing Shen Yi's calm expression, Zhang Delu felt even more frightened.
If Shen Yi was using the banner of Prince Jin's Mansion to deceive him, he would have some doubts about whether Shen Yi was pulling the banner out of thin air. However, this young man who came out of Prince Jin's Mansion actually denied his relationship with Prince Jin's Mansion. This made Zhang Delu even more certain that Shen Yi was inseparable from the Jin Palace.
However, he had been hanging around the Qinhuai River for decades, so he would not be in a hurry when something happened. After doing some simple psychological preparation, the fat "Zhang Yuanwai" looked at Shen Yi and squeezed out a slightly reluctant expression. smile.
"I'll invite you to tea."
Shen Yi chuckled: "It doesn't cost much to drink tea. It's the same for anyone who invites you. You don't have to be polite, Yuan Zhang."
Zhang Delu nodded, hesitated for a moment, then looked at Shen Yi and asked: "I would like to ask, sir, can you tell me your surname..."
Shen Yi smiled slightly.
"My surname is Shen. I came to Jiankang this time to take the academic entrance examination. For business purposes, I won't leave my name."
He looked at Zhang Delu and said calmly: "I'll be lucky enough to pass the test in the future. I'll tell Yuan Zhang my name later."
Some of the "scholar" class despised merchants, and they also despised people like Zhang Delu who worked at the bottom to earn a living.
Zhang Delu himself knew this. He walked behind Shen Yi and carefully looked at this calm young man, already having some guesses in his mind.
A young man with a Jiangdu accent came to the capital to take an exam and lived in the palace of Prince Jin...
Those were probably the friends of the princes and princes in the Jin Palace who were invited to live in the palace.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yuanwai secretly complained.
I originally wanted to bully these two Jiangdu kids and make some dirty money, but I didn't expect that it would involve the Jin Palace. And depending on the situation, it won't be easy to get out for a while.
Just when Zhang Yuanwai was thinking wildly, the teahouse had arrived. Shen Yi calmly walked to the second floor and asked for a pot of Yangtze tea.
Yangtze tea is a specialty of Yangtze County, Jiangdu Prefecture. It is not only famous in Jiangdu, but also sold well in Jiankang City.
After both parties sat down, Shen Yi reached out and poured a cup of tea for Zhang Delu, and then poured a cup for himself. After lowering his head and taking a sip of tea, he smiled at Zhang Yuanwai: "Since Zhang Yuanwai wants to buy our prescription, we also If you are willing to sell, then let’s discuss the price.”
Zhang Delu took the tea with both hands and gritted his teeth and said: "I didn't know Mr. Shen's origin before, so I was very offended. Since Mr. Shen is willing to sell this recipe, I won't say anything more. It's a fixed price..."
He looked up at Shen Yi, hesitated for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Five hundred taels."
This price is already a bit high for Zhang Delu.
Because although the net profit of snacks is very high, the daily turnover is not particularly large. Even if the business is as hot as Xu Fu has been these days, it will probably take a year or two to make a net profit of 500 taels or even longer.
And this also includes stall costs and many uncertain factors.
After hearing this quotation, Xu Fu, who was standing behind Shen Yi, changed his expression slightly.
He was tempted.
Because he was very poor, he had never seen so much money.
But Shen Yi shook his head slightly. He looked at Zhang Delu and said with a smile: "Uncle Zhang, I don't sell this recipe for five hundred taels."
He slowly stretched out three fingers.uuReading www.uukanshu.com
Zhang Delu's expression changed slightly. He stood up directly, looked at Shen Yi, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Shen, although you have connections behind your back, you can't bully others too much. Although the villain has offended you, there is no way he can pay for it no matter what. Three thousand..."
Shen Yi shook his head slightly: "It's not selling for three thousand taels, it's selling for thirty taels."
Seeing the expression of the big fat man in front of him change from shock and anger to confusion, Shen Yi smiled and said, "But this recipe is sold to more than just Yuan Zhang."
"There are one to two hundred stalls along the Qinhuai River alone. There are countless stalls in the entire Jiankang City. I sell it to Zhang Yuanwai today, and Zhang Yuanwai will sell it to others tomorrow. Why don't I sell it all together?"
Shen Yi smiled and said: "That's it, I will let Zhang Yuanwai help me contact and see how many people are willing to buy by the Qinhuai River. If there are more people, I will sell the recipe to everyone together and promise not to spread it further. Everyone buys the recipe." Son, please try not to spread it to others, after all, if you spread a copy, it will damage the interests of everyone."
Having said this, Shen Yi looked at Zhang Delu and said calmly: "Zhang Yuanwai has been on the Qinhuai River for so many years and should know many stall owners. It is perfect for you, Zhang Yuanwai, to be the middleman."
"If more than 50 people want to buy Yuan Zhang's recipe, Shen doesn't have to charge for it."
Zhang Delu frowned, looked up at Shen Yi, and said slowly: "Mr. Shen, it's impossible to sell fifty copies. There are only so many stall owners along the Qinhuai River..."
"It doesn't have to be sold in the Qinhuai River."
Shen Yi said lazily: "There are many places to set up stalls in Jiankang City. Besides, this kind of thing is only available in Jiankang. In addition to Jiankang City, you can also go to other big cities to sell it, right?"
