Tang Shijin was a layman and didn't understand tea. None of the tea he drank was as good as Feizhai Happy Water. However, Tao Chengqi and Yan Baiwei tasted them all, and no matter how much they put in, they all said it was excellent.
It's easy to say that Tang Shijin is divided into one level.
The real fried tea is fried by hand, or it should be called warm fire roasting, so as not to damage the tea. There are four people in the Yang family who can fry, so they built a four-burner stove. We will build another tea house depending on the situation.
One pot can fry ten kilograms of tea at a time, and four pots are forty kilograms. They are evenly divided, leaving one kilogram of space to produce bamboo cores, which is a ratio of 40:1. It is called a fairy product. It is only given away but not sold. The annual output is claimed to the outside world.
Limited, less than 100 kilograms.
Then the one with a ratio of 100:1 is called a luxury product, which costs 18 taels of silver per tube; the one with a ratio of 200:1 is called an elegant product, which costs 2 and a half taels of silver per tube. If you buy two barrels at the same time, you will only receive 5 taels.
Even the most common tea, they said it tastes very good, definitely better than any tea on the market.
You must know that this thing has almost no cost, it is only the labor of the shop, so even if it is an elegant product, it will make a lot of money.
It happened that Brother Tao was about to return to Beijing, so Tang Shijin had people rush to cook up a lot of "immortal tea" and bring it to Brother Tao.
Tao Chengqi also returned to the county seat, made an appointment for a cultural gathering, and invited friends to taste it. What he tasted was ordinary Yapin tea.
Afterwards, Mr. Peach Blossom lamented: "Jin'er even knows how to determine the grade. In this way, even if you buy the cheapest one, you still get a good reputation without losing face."
Over there, Tang Shijin asked He Dongsheng to take a few tubes of elegant tea to Boss Lu to test the water. But after He Dongsheng tasted it, he said directly: "Boss, believe me, this tea will be a big seller without asking, so why not make more?"
, I will take the goods directly to Fucheng at that time, just in time for the college examination in August, Fucheng has the most scholars. It can also save the time of a trip, don't worry, if you can't sell it, it will all be mine!"
Okay, then just wait, after all, production isn’t that fast, right?
Tang Shijin asked him: "How much do you think you can bring on the first trip?"
He Dongsheng said: "I want five thousand bottles of elegant products and five hundred bottles of luxury products."
Tsk! You can see the courage as soon as you say it.
Tang Shijin asked him: "How did your old boss calculate your wages for you?" She paused and waved her hand: "Forget it, just tell me how you want to be paid?"
He Dongsheng was a little hesitant.
But he hesitated for a moment and said bluntly: "My boss, my old boss, actually paid me monthly wages... But I heard that you and the He Li Zheng family share the profits. I don't have enough capital. I only have the money on hand.
More than two hundred taels, I thought, I'll put all this money with you, and then you give me the amount I want, not counting the rest. I just say that if I sell these, I will get two cents of the net profit.
Ok?"
The two points he is talking about are not two points of twenty-eight points, but equivalent to two percent, that is, two points of one percent.
Tang Shijin said: "The selling price should be similar, not too different from ours."
He Dongsheng agreed.
"I don't need you to pledge money," Tang Shijin said: "My carriage, horses, meals, or escorts are all yours, and I won't settle them with you. Then I will give you half of the profit from what passes through your hands. Is that possible?"
He Dongsheng was overjoyed: "Thank you so much, boss."
Tang Shijin said: "If I send someone to follow you, I will give him food."
He Dongsheng smiled and said: "But there's no need, it's just so rare."
Tang Shijin nodded, and He Dongsheng knew how to write. The two drafted the deed on the spot and each took a copy.
Tang Shijin asked Tang Congwen to take care of He Dongsheng's 5,500 tubes first. The shop in the county town was still being renovated, so he could delay it a little.
She worked in a hurry for several days before she remembered to settle the account of the Yang family's fabrics with Mrs. Luo.
Madam Luo refused directly: "Give me this fabric, but it's not like I can't sell it. The Yang family wants it cheap, and I still make money. What do you want to do with the fabric after I took your money? I sincerely regard you as my sister. What else can you do?"
If you tell me so clearly, I'm going to get angry."
Okay, Tang Shijin didn’t say much.
She went to Yang's shop again, which was now Tang's shop.
On the shop, Tao Chengqi personally inscribed the sign "Bao Jun Xin Tea House" and also wrote a couplet "No one appreciates high integrity, only one can cherish one's sincerity."
Because of his inscription and the cultural gathering he held before, the shop became popular even before it opened, and then the original grudges between the two families were brought out and passed around privately.
At this time, the Feng family was almost going crazy.
As soon as Tang Shijin's line "A face on the fifteenth day of August, eyes on the first day of the first lunar month" came out, Feng Jiaojiao became famous for being completely ugly.
Originally, in this era, "face like a silver basin and eyes like water apricots" were all blessings, but even if they were like a silver basin, they were not round like this! And... those squinted eyes, the first day of the first lunar month and so on.
, too much of a wife image, right?
Originally, this was alright. After all, they were in the wrong. It was Feng Jiaojiao who came to the door to scold her without any name or status, so Tang Shijin scolded her back. This mute mistake had already made the Feng family angry, but because of the Tao family, they did not dare to go to Tang Shijin and
The Luo family is in trouble.
But now, she has gone even harder, openly robbing the Feng family's business? She even joined forces with the Yang family?
Father Feng, Feng Renpu gritted his teeth and said: "She wants to destroy our Feng family!"
How could they not keep track of what happened back then?
At this critical moment of life and death, whether you are a prime minister or not, you have to stand aside. You have to protect yourself first!
Feng Renpu said coldly: "What sworn brothers and sisters are, it's just a trick played by children! I don't believe that the prime minister can come all the way to settle accounts with me for such a shameless godmother!"
"That's right!" Mrs. Feng also said: "Even a family like ours will not associate with a mud-legged person, let alone the prime minister's house! If they knew that there was a village girl who coaxed the young master into a marriage, so
It's such a shameful thing, they have to kill her first!"
"That's right!" Feng Renpu said: "The Tao family is a heirloom of poetry and calligraphy! This woman is a businessman! There is no benefit in getting along with her, and the reputation is not good! If the prime minister knows that we have done something, I am afraid he will still be grateful to us.
Woolen cloth!"
The more they talked, the more they felt it was right.
Then the fear was gone.
Feng Renpu went out of the city overnight, bribed a group of desperadoes, and spent a lot of money to buy Tang Shijin's life.
It is easy to block Tang Shijin.
Tang Shijin often traveled back and forth between Zhulin Village and the county seat, mostly riding the Tao family's carriage, and sometimes riding the Zhulin Village's donkey cart, both of which were easily recognized.
So this group of people lurked behind the hill. There were more than a dozen people, and they had no access to the village or the store. Even if she had some skills, she would still be beaten while holding her head. Can the God of Wealth still be invulnerable?
Then these people watched the Tao family's carriage coming, and the bandit leader whispered: "You guys, I'll chop off the horse's head, and you guys will kill me immediately!"
Several people responded one after another, clenched their weapons, and stared at the carriage with both eyes, running closer and closer.
