Datang: Inheriting the system legacy at the beginning
Chapter 98 Fatty, Tell Me Quickly
"Zhao Qian, since your store is already unsustainable, how about selling it to me?"
After gnashing his teeth, Li Yin continued to look at Zhao Qian and asked.
Fatty Zhao originally thought that King Qin had asked him to come here because he needed his help to do something.
But he never thought that King Qin wanted to buy his shop, which made him hesitate!
To be honest, his current shop doesn't make much money, but it is still possible to barely support the family.
But if the shop is sold, how will their family live in Chang'an City?
It is impossible to sell all the properties in Chang'an City, let's go back to our hometown!
Although he believed that if the king of Qin bought his shop, the price he would give would definitely not be lower than the market price.
But he was used to living in Chang'an City, and he didn't want to just go back to his hometown in such a dismal situation!
But if he rejects King Qin at this time, he is not sure whether King Qin will retaliate against him later.
In Chang'an City for so many years, he has suffered so much at the hands of those dignitaries.
If it hadn't been for a few years ago that he had relied on the connection of a general who patrolled the city, Wuhou, he might have been swallowed to the bone a few years ago!
Seeing the tangled expression on his fat face, Li Yin knew what was tangled in his heart, so he said without any hesitation:
"You don't have to worry about it anymore. Although I bought your shop, you can still stay in Chang'an City in the future. Do things by my side, how about being a shopkeeper for me?"
When Fatty Zhao heard this, his eyes lit up suddenly, he stared at Li Yin with an unbelievable look, and stammered and asked:
"King Qin...His Royal Highness King Qin, are you saying that after you buy my shop, I can still do things by your side?"
He couldn't help being excited, to put it bluntly!
No matter how big his business is, he is still the most humble businessman in this era.
Not to mention those high-ranking officials and nobles, aristocratic families treat him like this, you can play with him as you want!
Even those poor and rotten scholars, who are obviously poor, still look down on him!
But it will be different if you work by Li Yin's side!
Who is Li Yin, that is unique in the Tang Dynasty, and his status is only below the emperor and prince.
And judging from how obedient King Zhao of Xifu is to King Qin today, it's not that King Qin won't have any chance to ascend to the Great Treasure in the future.
As long as he follows Li Yin, even if he is a shopkeeper under Li Yin, his identity will be completely different from now on.
Didn't people say it!In front of the prime minister's door is still a seventh-rank official, not to mention the shopkeeper of His Royal Highness King Qin.
One is a lowly businessman whom everyone can despise, and the other is a subordinate of King Qin who is respected by everyone. He can still tell which is more important!
"Yeah!" Li Yin nodded lightly, afraid that he might not be clear, so he continued:
"You will be responsible for the sales of snowflake salt in the future, how do you have confidence?"
Fatty Zhao was in a daze. He felt that he must be dreaming.
If it weren't for dreaming, how could he not only become the subordinate of His Highness King Qin.
He can also be in charge of the most popular snowflake salt industry in Chang'an City.
Snowflake salt!That's snowflake salt!
Refined salt that cannot be produced by many aristocratic families, pure white snowflake salt without a trace of peculiar smell!
Such an important industry should be put in charge of a businessman who is about to go bankrupt. If someone else told him this, he would never believe it.
He pinched his thigh fiercely with his right hand. After feeling the real pain, he finally believed all this. He quickly knelt down towards Li Yin and promised sincerely:
"Your Majesty sees Your Highness King Qin, please rest assured! Your Majesty will definitely spread the snowflake salt throughout the Tang Dynasty."
Li Yin nodded in satisfaction, he was not so short of people that he would harvest his subordinates when he saw someone.
The main reason is that Zhao Qian had a very good influence on him, and it would definitely not be easy for a lowly businessman to own a piece of property of his own in the man-eating city of Chang'an.
Moreover, the snowflake salt industry doesn't need much ability at all, it just needs to be carried out step by step according to his plan.
There is another more important reason why he has Fatty Zhao under his command.
That's because he had opened the way for himself before, so that he could quickly enter Pingkangfang.
But if he was blocked by the common people for an hour on the outskirts, the ghost knows what the people of the Wang family will do to his shop.
The shop was second, but at that time Changle was hiding in the shop!
If someone from the Wang family hurt Li Lizhi, Li Yin would never forgive him in his life.
"Okay! Get up, you can't do this with me!"
Li Yin stretched out his hand lightly, and helped Fatty Zhao, who weighed more than 200 kilograms, to stand up, and then said to the pumpkin beside him:
"Pumpkin, you go to the salt shop with shopkeeper Zhao, announce my decision, and then tell all the people that starting tomorrow, all snowflake salt will be sold at a price of 25 ren per catty!"
"Ten coins a catty?"
"Yes, the servant knows!"
The answers of Fatty Zhao and Pumpkin are two extremes.
But Li Yin didn't pay attention, and after speaking, he walked straight away holding Li Xuanba with one hand and Li Lizhi with the other!
After he walked away, the pumpkin kicked Fatty Zhao hard!
"Our family tells you that you don't need to ask why when you do things with His Highness in the future, you just need to do what His Highness said, understand?"
Fatty Zhao quickly nodded and bowed, expressing that he understood!
To be honest, just now when Li Yin turned and left without saying a word, he was so frightened that his back got wet.
He was afraid that the big tree in the sky that he had just leaned against would kick him away just like that!
If that's the case, he probably has to go home and tear up this broken mouth!
When Pumpkin saw his appearance of admitting his mistake, he gave him another hard look, and continued:
"Understood, don't go with our family to the salt shop and announce the good news that His Highness is good for the country and the people!"
After finishing speaking, he followed Li Yin's example and walked towards the salt shop without saying a word.
Only then did Fatty Zhao come to his senses, and hurriedly chased after him, nodding and bowing.
This person is someone close to the King of Qin. To say he is a close friend would be an understatement. He is a businessman and shopkeeper who has just joined him, but he can't be provoked!
Because the road that the common people gave way to before had not been reoccupied, the two soon came to stand in front of the salt shop.
Pumpkin glanced at Fatty Zhao beside him, nodded and said, "His Highness's decision is not yet announced!"
Fatty Zhao now has a clear understanding of his status and doesn't care about Pumpkin's attitude. He straightened his clothes quickly, looked at the people who were still discussing endlessly below, and said loudly:
"Fathers and elders, please be quiet, His Royal Highness King Qin has something important to announce here!"
The people who were discussing various interesting things about King Qin and King Zhao immediately fell silent when they heard his words!
Someone who knew Zhao Qian recognized him and found that King Qin was no longer here, so he boldly asked:
"Fatty Zhao, what do you mean, when is it your turn to announce His Highness King Qin's decision?"
When the others heard this, they also echoed in succession!
Although they are just ordinary people, they are peasants among scholars, farmers, businessmen, and so on. In terms of official rankings, their status is much higher than that of Zhao Qian.
"That's right! Fatty Zhao, you don't go back to guard your shop that is about to close down, and come here to pretend to be King Qin's subordinates, are you looking for death?"
"Yes, yes! Fatty Zhao, you should go back and guard your shop!"
"Hahaha! That's right, Fatty Zhao, remember to notify me when your shop goes bankrupt, so I can pick up some bargains then."
……
Once the common people turn on the ridicule mode, it is very difficult to accept it.
Zhao Qian looked at the group of familiar people below with a depressed face, and couldn't help feeling a feeling in his heart, was he going to fail in his first mission?
No, absolutely not!
If even such a small task fails, what face will Fatty Qian have to work under the King of Qin in the future.
"Shut up! You idiots, I, Fatty Zhao, is now the treasurer of His Royal Highness Qinhua Salt Industry, what happened to announce his decision for you?"
"Anyone who is blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah!"
It has to be said that Li Yin's name as King Qin is really useful among this group of people.
When Zhao Qian yelled like this, those people who were still laughing at him just now immediately fell silent.
And none of them want to buy Snowflake Salt!
This kind of salt is not only as white as snow, without any strange smell, but also much cheaper than the green salt sold by the family.
Anyone who doesn't want to buy it is an idiot!
"Hmm! Listen up!"
Zhao Qian cleared his throat, as if what he wanted to announce was not King Qin's decision, but the imperial decree of the emperor, extremely pious.
"Your Majesty and His Royal Highness the King of Qin are sympathetic to the common people, knowing that ordinary people like us suffer from smoking, and the green salt sold by the aristocratic family is unpalatable, not to mention expensive.
So I decided to adjust the price of Snowflake Salt to..."
I don't know if he wants revenge, those folks who mocked him before did it on purpose!
When it came to the key price, Fatty Zhao stopped suddenly!
This made the tense people below suddenly not calm!
Nima, I can't play like this without you!
They were the ones who laughed at you just now, please don’t do this to us, please!
Whether the price of this snowflake salt has risen or fallen, you fat man, hurry up and tell me!
I'm still waiting to get home and bred the family heifers!
Fatty Zhao is very satisfied with this result, and it feels really good to see those people who mocked him just now are so impatient but they have nothing to do with him.
However, he didn't dare to procrastinate on not revealing the price, after all, the pumpkin was still by his side, if this one went back and gave King Qin a crooked mouth, he wouldn't be able to find a place to cry when the time came!
"With the consent of His Majesty and King Qin, from now on, the unified selling price of Snowflake Salt will be set at 25 Wen a catty!"
"Your Majesty is benevolent, His Royal Highness King Qin is benevolent!"
"Your Majesty is benevolent, His Royal Highness King Qin is benevolent!"
"Your Majesty is benevolent, His Royal Highness King Qin is benevolent!"
When the people reacted from the shock, there was another shout of kneeling towards the imperial city.
After gnashing his teeth, Li Yin continued to look at Zhao Qian and asked.
Fatty Zhao originally thought that King Qin had asked him to come here because he needed his help to do something.
But he never thought that King Qin wanted to buy his shop, which made him hesitate!
