Daqin: I was overheard by Zulong

Chapter 163 As for?
Wang Chi did get up late this morning. In fact, Zhao Yi gave him an order yesterday, asking him to place at least fifty coal stoves in the Chariot and Cavalry General's Mansion, where all the craftsmen work, before evening.

As a result, when Wang Chi was setting up the coal stove, he accidentally discovered that Ying Zheng was there with Mrs. Gongsun, so he hurriedly waited on him carefully, until the end of the fourth watch, when he sneaked away for a while.

As a result, he was delayed in opening the shop because he squinted for such a short time. When he and his assistant arrived at Wangji Department Store, he was shocked when he saw the queue in front of the shop.

Let me go, there are so many people, from the residences of the left and right ministers, the residence of General Wang Jian, the residence of General Qiang Yan, and the residence of General Li Xin...

Why don't these palace ministers come here, why do so many people come to join in the fun?
Wang Chi couldn't understand why there were so many people queuing up for his shop even though he hadn't done any publicity.
The housekeeper of Qiang Li's family knew Wang Chi, and when he saw Wang Chi's stunned expression, he immediately yelled, "Boss Wang, what are you talking about, I'm waiting for you to open the door for business!"

The housekeeper of Wang Jian's house saw Wang Chi and yelled, "Boss Wang, hurry up, I'm the first one today, if you don't sell me the coal stove and briquettes, I will destroy the shop!"

When Wang Chi heard this, he hurriedly prepared to open the door, but as soon as he opened the door, everyone started rushing in, but before anyone could pour into the shop, a huge force struck, and Dongfang Bubai's big thorn fell on the door of the shop. , snorted coldly.

"The prince is famous. No one is allowed to trespass in this shop. If you line up for shopping, anyone who doesn't line up will get out!"

With Dongfang Bubai's words, everyone was intimidated. The name of the Prince's Mansion was there, and Dongfang Bubai's power was right in front of his eyes.

Wangji Department Store finally opened, and the brand-new coal stoves and neatly decorated coal briquettes were immediately exposed to everyone's eyes.

People who know the goods, their eyes are shining, thinking about how much they can move back, and the common people who don't know the goods are all confused when they look at the things in the Wangji department store.

To put it bluntly, the common people are here to join in the fun, and they have no idea what the things in Wangji Department Store are for.

And at this moment, Wang Chi said, "Everyone, there are only [-] coal stoves today, and each person is limited to three sets, and there is no limit to coal pellets. Until they are sold out, everyone, arrange your seats and buy one by one!"

Hearing this, the housekeeper of Wang Jian's family hurried forward and snapped a piece of gold, "I'll buy three sets, and the briquettes will come to two hundred catties!"

Wangji Department Store opened, with Dongfang Bubai in front of it, and with so many officers and soldiers present, the order at the scene was pretty good. Therefore, the five hundred coal stoves were quickly sold out.

Except for the princes and ministers who came to line up to buy early in the morning, the common people who followed along to join in the fun also bought a lot.

It's just that the common people looked at the coal stove and briquettes they bought, and they all looked puzzled, and they didn't know how to use these things at all.

When Li Si's housekeeper saw it, he immediately approached a common man who was staring at the coal stove with suspicion, stretched out his hand and took out a golden bean, "Here, do you want to sell the coal stove in your hand? Or sell it to me? You I bought the coal stove and briquettes for a thousand cash, so I’ll exchange them for this!”

When the people saw that Li Si's housekeeper was holding a piece of heavy golden beans, their eyes lit up suddenly. They made a lot of money by doing this. Anyway, they didn't know what it would be useful for, so the people naturally sold it.

Seeing that there was an on-site transaction and the common people who bought coal stoves next to them, they were suddenly moved.

Then someone asked Li Si's housekeeper if he wanted more. When Li Si's house housekeeper saw it, he suddenly laughed and said, "Buy it, as long as you sell it, I will buy it, and I will charge as much as you have!"

The housekeepers of other houses at the scene quickly reacted when they saw the housekeeper of Li Si's family doing this, so many people who bought coal stoves at the scene quickly sold the coal stoves they had just bought.

Seeing this scene from a distance, Wang Chi was speechless. The officials' families really didn't want their faces.

Now the common people don't know what the use of coal stoves are, and they give up good things for a small fortune. When they find out, they will definitely scold these eight generations of ancestors who were officials.

But Wang Chi didn't point out this matter on the spot, so in the end, the [-] coal stoves in Wangji Department Store were bought by servants and housekeepers of princes and ministers by various means.

The homes of these court ministers soon used coal stoves, and the family members no longer had to suffer from the cold.

And as the family servants of these ministers spread the usefulness of the coal stove to the outside world, the people exploded in an instant.

"Hey, do you know? Now all the palace ministers use something called a coal stove in their homes."

"Coal stove? What is that? Why does it sound so familiar?"

"Of course it sounds familiar. This morning, there was such a long queue at Wangji Department Store and everyone bought it!"

"Oh, that's right, I remembered. I also bought it at the time, and sold it to the right minister's housekeeper. I made a lot of money!"

"You sold the coal stove? You, you are so stupid, don't you know that it is used for heating? I heard that it is used for heating, and the effect is very good. One can warm the whole family!"

"Yeah, yeah, I heard that too, that thing is on fire, and it's like spring in the house, and you can still boil water!"

"Really, I would have bought one if I had known earlier!"

"What the hell, that thing can be used for heating, and those bastards, if I knew it was useful, I wouldn't have sold it!"

"Those officials know how to use it, but they just bully us people who don't know how to use it. They deliberately charge us to buy it at a high price. They are a bunch of ruthless guys who are just for the sake of wealth!"

"It's so stupid, it's a big loss, doesn't it mean that I have to suffer from the cold tonight, fuck..."

The people were so angry that they scolded their mothers, but they had nothing to do with those high-ranking officials. Fortunately, Wang Chi told everyone that all coal stoves would be sold in the future, and he would teach the people how to use them, so the people were relieved.

Zhao Yi didn't even bother to take care of the things on the street. Since he delegated all the power, he completely believed that the people below could do a good job for him.

Of course, if it was Ying Zheng who made trouble for him, that would be a different matter. At this time, Wang Wanting was complaining to Zhao Yi because of Ying Zheng's affairs, which made Zhao Yi very annoyed.

"His Royal Highness, Your Majesty went to Cheqi General's Mansion to sleep last night. When His Majesty left in the morning, he took away all the coal stoves in my mansion. I wanted to reason with His Majesty, but His Majesty was still fierce." Me, let me find you!"

As Wang Wanting spoke, she shed tears in front of Zhao Yi, making Zhao Yi dumbfounded.

Several coal stoves are crying like this, as for...
