Donghuamen Street.

Qingyuan Tea House.

Early this morning, businessmen of all sizes in Fengyang City gathered at the Qingyuan Teahouse. They drank tea and talked, and the scene was very lively.

"Have you heard that the Royal Restaurant will only accept banknotes from today on, and even cash cannot be used? It seems that the imperial court has made up its mind to fully implement banknotes in Fengyang City."

"We have heard about such a big thing for a long time. As far as I know, not only Fengyang City, but also Dayan Bank will be established in all states and counties in Dayan."

"I believe that in the near future, both cash silver and banknotes will withdraw from the stage of history, and banknotes will become the mainstream currency in Dayan."

"We are all businessmen, and the most troublesome part of doing business is collecting and finding money. Now that we have specific amounts of banknotes, it is much easier to find money."

……

Everyone was expressing their opinions on the banknotes. At this moment, the waiter walked in holding more than a dozen copies of Fengyang Daily.

"Dear guests, today's Fengyang Daily has arrived. If you want to read it, please go to the counter to pick it up."

Most of the guests who came to Qingyuan Tea House to drink tea were businessmen. They came here just to drink tea, read newspapers and exchange information. The waiter had just put the newspapers away when they were taken away by the customers in the blink of an eye.

As soon as the guests opened the newspaper, a small leaflet fell out of the newspaper. When they picked it up and looked at it carefully, they were immediately attracted by the content written on it.

"Wow! Marquis Jiangling has come up with something good again."

"Really! That old man, please read it to everyone."

"Ahem! It said that Marquis Jiangling opened a shop called Liuli Mirror Specialty Store on Shangdongmen Street. It officially opened today. This Liuli Mirror is a good thing made by Marquis Jiangling."

"This glass mirror is a mirror made of glass. It is a hundred times clearer than the bronze mirror we usually use. Even small hairs can be seen clearly."

"Old Duan, does it say how much does this glass mirror cost?"

"It said above that the larger the glass mirror, the more expensive it is. The smallest one is priced at one hundred taels, and the largest one is sold at one hundred thousand taels, and they only accept banknotes."

The glazed mirror must be made of precious glazed glass. The price of one hundred taels is not expensive. It is just right to buy one for my wife. Many people at the scene became excited, and many people saw the hidden meaning in it. business opportunities.

"Waiter, check out."

The waiter came up and took a look, "Boss Zhang has accepted the favor of one hundred and twenty ren."

Boss Zhang casually took out a two hundred cash note and handed it to the waiter, "Waiter, there's no need to look for the remaining eighty cash, just write it down in the account."

"Okay, Boss Zhang, walk slowly."

In just a quarter of an hour, more than half of the guests paid their bills and left. Even the owner of Qingyuan Teahouse, Boss Qi, also left the teahouse in a hurry.

The scene that happened in Qingyuan Teahouse was repeated in other places in Fengyang City...

With the sale of Fengyang Daily, the story of Liulijing quickly spread throughout Fengyang City. After receiving the news, the young girls and young wives in the city were immediately moved and began to take action.

"Master, I really want this glazed mirror, can you buy me one?"

The master nodded, "Madam likes it, and I will buy it for you now."

"Thank you, sir!"

"Master, I also want a glass mirror."

"Dad, my daughter also wants a glass mirror."

The master looked up and saw his eight concubines and nine daughters all appearing in front of him.

The smallest glass mirror costs one hundred taels, and one for one person costs at least one thousand eight hundred taels. The master's face instantly turned extremely ugly.

Why! If I had known this, I would have married fewer people.

royal palace.

Hall of Wende.

Huangfu Gongcheng was here to review the memorial as usual. Zhang Hao, the eunuch at the gate, hurriedly walked into the hall and said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Jing, Concubine Hui, Concubine Shu, and Concubine Zhen are outside the hall asking for an audience."

Why are they here? Huangfu Gongcheng put down the imperial pen in his hand and said, "Let them come in!"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The four empresses walked into the hall and saluted, "I pay my respects to Your Majesty!"

"The four beloved concubines are free of ceremony."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"The four concubines came together to see me. Is there something wrong?"

"Your Majesty, the story of the Liuli Mirror spread throughout the harem early this morning. The sisters liked it very much, so they recommended the four concubines to come over to meet Your Majesty." Concubine Jing said.

Huangfu Gongcheng smiled. It seems that this glazed mirror is indeed not very attractive to women. How long has it passed? Even my concubines couldn't help but ask for it.

"Everyone has a share in Liulijing, go back and let them wait first!"

"Yes, Your Majesty! I will retire."

The four empresses bowed to each other, turned and left the hall.

"Sun Ban, I will give you full authority over the glazed mirrors of all the concubines in the harem. Send an order for Lin Feng to enter the palace immediately."

"Old slave obeys!"

Go up Dongmen Street.

The Liuli Mirror store had not yet opened, and many people who came to buy Liuli mirrors had gathered outside the store. When Lu Qiuya arrived with people, the entire store was already surrounded by people.

"Princess Qiuyue has arrived!"

Yu Qiang shouted, and the people gathered outside the store immediately moved out of the way and bowed, "The common people pay homage to Her Royal Highness Princess Qiuyue."

"Everyone, hurry up and excuse yourself. The glass mirror will be on sale soon. Please line up consciously. Yu Qiang, lead the guards to maintain order."

"Yes, young lady!"

With Yu Qiang's support, everyone lined up in two long lines. At this moment, Huangfu Yunyun and Ruoyun hurried to the store.

"Sister Huang, am I not late?"

"No, you came at the right time. From now on, the Liulic Mirror Store will be handed over to you. As for the work of the Public Opinion Department, you don't have to worry about it."

"Yao Shang, Ying Xiu, Chuntao, Xia He, Qiu Ju, Dong Mei, from now on you six will be the waiters in the store. Please cooperate with Princess Wenyue to manage the store."

"Yes, young lady!"

Lu Qiuya nodded and went directly to the door of the store. Looking at the two long buying lines, a delighted smile appeared on her face.

"I announce that the Glazed Mirror Store is now open for business!"

The Liuli Mirror Store officially opened in the eyes of everyone's expectations. In just one hour, thousands of Liuli mirrors were sold out. Even three floor-standing mirrors priced at 100,000 taels were sold by people from the four major families. Bought it.

Looking at a large box of one hundred taels of banknotes in front of her, Huangfu Yunyun was very excited, "Sister Huang, we have made a fortune."

Lu Qiuya smiled and said, "Wenyue, you are not allowed to touch this money. Give it to your brother-in-law in full. I will go back to the Public Opinion Department if I have anything else to do."

"Now that I know it, Sister Huang, don't worry!"

Lu Qiuya walked out of the store and saw people queuing up outside, "Everyone, the glass mirror has been sold out. Please come back early tomorrow morning."

After Lu Qiuya finished speaking, he left directly in the carriage.

"No way! I came here as soon as I got the news, and it's sold out so quickly?"

"Like you, I rushed here as soon as I received the news, but I didn't expect to arrive late."

"This glass mirror is a rare thing made of glass. It must be very troublesome to make. It is understandable that there are not so many goods. Let's come back early tomorrow morning!"
