Chapter 491: Profit Comes First and Follows From All Sides
"Selling chestnuts, is there anyone buying chestnuts? The new chestnuts..."
When Li Longji's car arrived at Chunming Gate, the sound of chestnut hawking came from the side.
He opened the curtain and looked out through the glass window. A gray-haired man squatted there with a load of chestnuts to sell.
Some people came over to look, said a few words, shook their heads and left again.
Li Longji listened to the man's words, "It's better to buy roasted chestnuts at twice the price than from you. You're selling them too expensive." ’
After just two glances and a few words, the car had already entered the city gate, and the Xingqing Palace was on the north side of the road.
"Ask that man why chestnuts are so expensive." Li Longji ordered, and the driver knew how to deal with it and went directly to Xingqing Palace.
When Li Longji got out of the car, someone immediately came up to put a canopy umbrella on him. It was still raining lightly outside.
Li Longji waved his hand, took out a big umbrella from the car, opened it, and stood under the canopy.
The person holding the canopy looked grateful, moved a little, and took a position under the umbrella.
It didn't take long before the person who inquired came back.
"Your Majesty, he said that he came from Fuping County and did not want to sell at a low price to the merchants who received the goods, so he sold them with a load.
He felt that the price of the sugar stir-fry was high, so he could lower it by half, but in the end he couldn't sell it.
He wanted to study, but there was no place to put the burden, and he was afraid that the teenagers would beat him up if he carried the burden to study. "
"Go and tell him that the boys won't beat him, learn from him." After hearing this, Li Longji did not accuse the man who carried the burden of selling chestnuts of being greedy.
As he spoke, he handed the umbrella to the other party and turned back to the car.
The person inquiring about the news held up an umbrella, his arms shaking with excitement.
To him, this is not an umbrella, but His Majesty's concern.
He didn't know that his Majesty Li Longji learned all this from Li Yi.
Li Yi was usually very kind to Zhuangzi's people. There were rules for making mistakes, but at the same time he was ruthless when dealing with people.
Especially the matter of killing forty-seven people, do it yourself.
"Sanlang, won't the boys beat him?" Queen Wang heard it in the car.
"No, not only can't beat him, but I can also teach him. I sent people to investigate the matter of young Song Xiaodong.
He promised to bring other people in the county to make money after making money, but on the first day he came out to sell, he had already agreed with others to buy woven baskets.
After returning, he gave the basket of money and collected chestnuts at a high price. People in the county picked chestnuts and sold them to him. "
Li Longji told the situation, and he sent people to keep an eye on everyone who came into contact with Li Yi.
"He is a good child and knows how to behave. Otherwise, if my uncle finds out, he might take action." Queen Wang felt relieved.
"In the future, chestnuts will become valuable and will be roasted in sugar. Chestnut pickers will inevitably raise the price." Li Longji's eyes were deep.
"What should we do? Chestnuts are expensive for the people of Jingzhao Mansion." Queen Wang thought about the people again.
"Businessmen from other places found that chestnuts from Chang'an were easy to sell, so they shipped them here by ship, especially in Henan Prefecture, where there are many chestnuts."
Li Longji is now familiar with the market economy and even knows that there are many chestnuts in Henan and Hebei.
When Li Longji returned to the palace, the chestnut seller was already standing in the East Market watching Song Xiaodong and the others roast chestnuts.
"Uncle Zhang, you have to practice this. In the beginning, the frying will be uneven and it will always burn. So fry it raw for a few days first..."
Song Xiaodong explained how to speculate to the 'old man' who carried the burden. The old man listened carefully and decided to go back to find someone to sell together, and went to the West Market.
The old man was even prepared to give the chestnuts he picked to Song Xiaodong and the others as apprentice money.
This is a skill that not only shows you, but also teaches patiently, and even allows you to practice for a while.
In the palace, Yao Chong and others were also learning their skills, but they had no intention of giving them a try.
They were dumbfounded by what Li Longji said about points and extra places for local imperial examination selection.
Countless scenes of struggle appeared in the minds of the three prime ministers. The poor families fought against the merchants, the aristocratic families fought against the merchants, the aristocratic families fought against the families, the families fought against the humble families...
Then they also fight in the court, each for their own ideas and interests behind them.
The final decision...is in the hands of His Majesty. If you don't believe me, just look at the Feather Rider in the Forbidden Garden.
"Your Majesty, I heard that you are here to ask about whether to fight Tibet." Yao Chong's ears rang. Why did such a big thing happen?
"If you ask, don't fight. We'll talk about it next year." Li Longji answered this question. Everyone can rest assured that if there are no other matters this year, the fiscal budget will not be increased.
"Your Majesty, this matter is not urgent. Exchange coupons are not yet popular, and commercial taxes are difficult to collect. We can wait until later." Lu Huaishen gave a reason.
"Donate without delay." Li Longji said another way to collect money, donate.
He then said: "Set it up quickly. If you have enough points this year, you can go to Chang'an and take the exam in the spring next year."
He wanted to see how many people were willing to pay for a place.
"I understand." Zhang said he was smart, but it was useless to say more.
Your Majesty is waiting to see the money. There will be a lot of money in a short time.
He also believes that in prosperous places such as Jiangnan and Shu, if the local government provides places, many people will be willing to buy them.
If you don’t buy it this year, what if the policy changes next year? Taking advantage of the opportunity, he quickly sent over those who were about the same but who had not received the quota to enter Chang'an.
If you delay for one year, your official career will be delayed by one year.
If it is delayed for two years, how much money can be exchanged for it?
"I think so." Yao Chong didn't want to offend Li Longji, because his position was not very stable now, and there was still a foreign minister in Hetai.
"I second the motion." Lu Huaishen didn't even struggle. What does it have to do with him?
He has a family and his salary is paid, so what else?
The matter has been settled, and the next thing to study is how much money to exchange for how many points, and what to name it.
By the way, each should contact other officials to discuss it first and wait for it to be approved at the court meeting.
We can't discuss and fight again at the court meeting, His Majesty will be angry.
The next day, a new advertisement appeared in the newspaper. Lijiazhuangzi purchased Qiu Ju in large quantities at a high price.
The people are happy. Lijiazhuangzi always gives money to people. He has been collecting this and that since last year. It has been a great help!
In Lantian County, eldest son Sun Xin was having breakfast and reading the newspaper.
"If he wants to collect chrysanthemums, should we rush to collect them? We will definitely make money.
I can't figure it out, every time Li Jiazhuangzi made money, the people just thought he was a good person.
Look at the tea leaves and mugwort. He took them and resold them at such high prices. Buy low and sell high. "
Changsun Xin's reputation has improved now, but he still hasn't forgotten the fact that Li Yi cheated him, no, it was the fact that he cheated Li Yi and was cheated by him.
"My boss, you can't. It's useless for us to take it, and it will offend others. If you really want to take it, you can send someone to ask for the price.
If it is profitable, UU read www.uukanshu. ｎet I will go to other places to purchase large quantities and then sell them to Lijiazhuangzi.
The newspapers are currently only circulated in Jingzhao Mansion in a timely manner, and will be delivered to other places later, so we will be the first to get them. "
Staff officer Luo Oucheng came up with a way not to fight with him, but to take advantage of him.
Chrysanthemums elsewhere are not worth much, but Lijiazhuangzi gives more.
Send people to other places to purchase large quantities, transport them back and sell them, earning the difference in price, deducting freight and labor.
"Isn't it helping him make money?" Changsun Xin felt uncomfortable.
"He helps us make money." The second staff member Luo Oucheng said from a different perspective.
Luo Ouxin followed closely: "Hurry, otherwise other merchants will find out and they will collect it."
"My boss, I'm willing to go outside in person." Luo Oujun was even more straightforward.
