As soon as these words came out, Shopkeeper Liu immediately became happy. Shopkeeper Du was really in a mood.
It has only been two years since I became the shopkeeper of the Han and Tang Dynasties Commercial Bank, and I am almost boasting about my awesomeness.
Shopkeeper Liu Da narrowed his eyes and said calmly while stroking his long beard.
"That's what you said. Then Liu needs four hundred kilograms. Do you have the goods here?"
Shopkeeper Du nodded with a smile.
"Of course there is no problem, but this pepper is a rare thing, and shopkeeper Du doesn't dare to make the decision to give shopkeeper Liu any discount.
But, I can make the decision and give Shopkeeper Liu Da two sets of the highest-end washing and care sets..."
"Okay, then let's settle it once and for all." Shopkeeper Liu Da made the decision immediately without hesitation.
Not long after the meeting, in the VIP hall of Hantang Trading Company, shopkeeper Liu Da, who had just sat down, saw a sandalwood box handed over by shopkeeper Du.
After taking it, he carefully placed it on the desk and slowly opened it.
Shopkeeper Liu Da saw that in the middle of the brown silk wrapped there, there was a glaze pot from the Western Regions that was slightly larger than a palm and was crystal clear with almost no variegation.
On top is a transparent pot lid, handle, and spout that all seem to be made from nature.
The important thing is that a sterling silver chain is used between the lid and the handle to prevent the lid from accidentally falling.
In addition to this pot, there are six tea cups that are round in shape, no more than the size of a bull's eye, and are also made of crystal clear, colorless and transparent Western Glaze.
Moreover, the bottom of each utensil is stamped with a small seal: Chang'an Zhao Family Western Region Liulifang.
"It's beautiful, it's really beautiful. It's indeed... It's not in vain that I've waited so long. Shopkeeper Du, hurry up and get me a pot of water and some black tea."
"Shopkeeper Liu Da, wait a minute..."
In a short time, a small box of black tea and a pot of steaming water were delivered here by the store clerk.
#####
The shop assistant looked directly at the wealthy shopkeeper Liu Da and poured the black tea into the colorless and transparent glass pot worth three thousand guan.
Then they filled it with boiling water. When the boiling water poured down, both the store clerk and shopkeeper Du looked like they had toothache.
First wash the tea, and then pour hot water again.
Shopkeeper Liu Da saw the tea soup gradually turning light yellow. He held the pot in his hand and carefully appreciated the color change of the tea.
Then poured it into the one hundred colorless and transparent glass tea cups.
He also gestured towards Shopkeeper Du. "Come on, come on, this is the first pot of tea I have brewed in the new teapot I got. Shopkeeper Du, would you like to share it with me?"
Shopkeeper Du carefully picked up the teacup, smelled the tea deeply, then picked up the teacup and took a sip, his eyebrows relaxed.
Then he carefully placed the priceless tea cup on the table and then said half-jokingly.
"Shopkeeper Liu is so heroic. This cup of tea really makes Du drink with fear."
"Hahaha... Shopkeeper Du really knows how to joke. You are the shopkeeper of Hantang Trading Company, and you can be considered a dividend sharer in this shop."
"It's just something that has been around for hundreds of years. You shouldn't feel so bad about it, right?"
"And you see, this colorless and transparent glazed kettle is used to brew tea, whether it is green tea or black tea.
You can directly witness the color of the soup and admire the shape of the leaves. This is a rare enjoyment..."
After hearing this, the shop assistant's eyes immediately turned red, what a rare treat.
This is money that many people will never be able to earn in their lifetime. This guy spent so much money to get such a crystal clear, flawless glass pot from the Western Regions, just to make tea with it.
The store clerk really didn't know what words to use to describe this well-known local wealthy businessman in Quanzhou, Shopkeeper Liu, other than "hao".
Just as he was sipping the black tea, a steward came quickly, carrying a small wooden box.
After putting it down solemnly, he opened the lid of the box and opened the oil paper on it, revealing the particles with a gray-white color inside.
Shopkeeper Liu Da wiped his hands, then reached in, reached deep and grabbed a handful, brought it close to his eyes to carefully examine its properties, and then put it under his nose to sniff lightly.
After letting go, he took a small metal bowl handed over by the manager of the commercial bank on the side, threw two white peppercorns into it, and then crushed it inside.
Then he put his head forward and sniffed lightly, then his face changed, he turned his head suddenly and sneezed hard to the side.
Then he rubbed his nose happily and patted the box with satisfaction.
"I'm talking to Shopkeeper Du. For this kind of quality, I want it to cost 400 kilograms. Is that okay?"
"Of course there is no problem."
"Okay, let's go, take me to see the goods. If there is no problem, we will pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other."
"Okay, please wait a moment, Shopkeeper Liu Da, while Manager Wen goes to prepare the goods. I will ask Shopkeeper Liu Da to inspect the goods in person later."
Manager Wen closed the wooden box again, then lifted up his front and hurried away.
Shopkeeper Du called the shop assistant who had been standing nearby in a daze and asked him to take the wooden box filled with pepper to the front shop as a sample display.
After a while, Manager Wen returned to the VIP reception room again and said that four hundred kilograms of pepper had been prepared.
#####
Shopkeeper Liu Da personally inspected each box of the goods carefully, and finally came to the conclusion that this batch of white pepper had not been soaked by rain or sea water.
It wasn't until the servants brought the money and silk and watched his servants carefully carry the four hundred kilograms of pepper onto the oxcart and send it out of the Han and Tang Dynasty Trading House that shopkeeper Liu Da felt a little more relaxed.
"Shopkeeper Liu, Du is really curious. Why did you buy so much pepper?"
"Even if you're hosting a banquet, it seems like you won't need so much, right?"
Shopkeeper Liu Da thought that he might be able to rely on these four hundred kilograms of pepper.
I was able to repurchase more than 3,000 guan that I had spent to buy this set of Western Glazed Teapots, and I couldn't help but feel very good.
"Shopkeeper Du, I guess you don't have much pepper left here, right?"
I saw shopkeeper Liu Da looking high-spirited and happy, and now he was taking advantage of the world.
Shopkeeper Du immediately laughed.
However, as an excellent shopkeeper, he would not divulge the details of his firm at will.
Du Zhangchen just smiled shyly and said, "There are still some left. If you, the shopkeeper Liu Da, need it..."
"Looking at the fact that we have been friends for many years, Liu will not take advantage of you too much.
I just want to advise you, Brother Du, for the remaining pepper in your Han and Tang Dynasty trading houses, please quickly raise the price, don’t raise more, just double it.”
