How can this be so?
Is this wine really as Cheng Yaojin said?
"Master, do you want to withdraw the person?" Fang Xuanling asked.
"No, let your people bring back some wine. I want to see how delicious the wine can make Cheng Yaojin amaze." Li Er said thoughtfully.
"Yes!"
Both of them knew that Cheng Yaojin was famously honest and honest, and never lied.
Since Cheng Yaojin said it was a good wine, then this wine must not be bad.
Just, how good is it?
Li Er couldn't help looking at the Yunyan Wine on the table.
Is it better than this Yunyanjiu?
Few people know that there are two grades of Yunyanjiu.
One is high-grade cloud tobacco wine, which is specially provided for the royal family. Except for the members of the royal family, only a very small number of ministers in the court can enjoy it.
And the other is Yunyan wine sold on the market.
It seems that there is a difference of one level, but in fact it is not much different.
He rewarded Cheng Yaojin a lot for this kind of high-quality cloud smoke and wine, but at that time Cheng Yaojin only praised the good wine, and was speechless.
Now, Li Xiao's wine has moved Cheng Yaojin so much.
Li Er became interested in an instant.
In the past, Li Xiao only gave him surprises, is it still the same this time?
……
At this time, Cheng Chumo, who was surrounded by guards, also let out a sigh of relief.
"Father, that's not what you said just now."
He wiped the cold sweat from his brow, pushed away the guards and walked to Cheng Yaojin.
"Forehead……"
Cheng Yaojin looked embarrassed.
He looked at the guards around him, and immediately shouted: "What are you doing? What are you doing? Who told you to point your knives at King Yue? You are so brave!"
He is also angry!
The old face is lost.
Since this anger can't be spilled on Cheng Chumo, the guards have to be wronged.
"His Royal Highness, it's all my fault."
After finishing speaking, Cheng Yaojin immediately reached out to grab the wine on the table.
But he was stopped by Cheng Chumo.
"Father, this is poisonous, you must not drink it!"
"Fart, the poisonous old man can still stand here?"
Cheng Yaojin slapped Cheng Chumo's hand off, and couldn't wait to drink another bowl.
It was really that taste that made him linger and forget to return, unable to extricate himself.
"Hmph! You were the one who said it was poisonous just now, so shameless!" Cheng Chumo said in a low voice with a smug look on his face.
But at this moment, Cheng Yaojin was only thinking about the wine on the table, even when he heard Cheng Chumo's words, he didn't take it to heart.
But when he was about to grab the wine bowl, Li Xiao stopped his hand and smiled slightly: "Uncle Cheng, this wine is extremely precious, and we don't provide it for free."
"Didn't you just say it's free?"
Cheng Yaojin looked over in surprise.
"Cheng Chumo, tell me."
Li Xiao didn't answer, but looked at Cheng Chumo with a smile.
Cheng Chumo understood immediately, and immediately stood up and said, "Father, I told you before that you can drink for free within a stick of incense."
As he spoke, he pointed to the burnt incense stick in the distance, and continued, "Now the stick of incense has burned out, so, pay the money, Dad!"
"Presumptuous!" Cheng Yaojin shouted angrily, "I am your father, how dare you ask me for money?"
Seeing Cheng Yaojin getting angry, Cheng Chumo shrank back again, not daring to speak again.
Li Xiao had no choice but to stand up and said: "To tell you the truth, this restaurant belongs to me, and Cheng Chumo is just in charge of running it. If you want to drink, you have to pay, and it doesn't matter whoever comes!"
After this happened, he couldn't hide anymore.
Otherwise, Cheng Yaojin would not be able to pass this level!
If no rules are established, then Cheng Yaojin will not drink these wines as his own!
At that time, he will have to pay for it.
"How much money is a pot? I want it all!" Cheng Yaojin said very boldly.
Although compared to those real big families, he is very poor.
But he is also a minister of the court, and with his salary plus the usual rewards, he is still much richer than ordinary people.
"100 taels of silver for an altar."
Li Xiao stretched out a finger and said lightly.
"How many?!"
Cheng Yaojin widened his bull's eyes, and stared at Li Xiao in shock.
"100 taels, the same price!"
Li Xiao said expressionlessly: "Moreover, each person can only buy one jug of wine per day, any more will not be entertained!"
"Are you crazy about money? 100 taels, why don't you say 1000 taels a pot?!"
Cheng Yaojin's stubborn temper came up again, even the best Yunyan wine on the market is only a few taels of silver a jar.
But when it came to Li Xiao's wine, it directly multiplied a hundred times.
This is where wine is sold.
What a robbery!
"Uncle Cheng reminded that 100 taels is indeed a bit cheap, so let's go for 200 taels!"
Li Er thought about it carefully, and said, "However, as a reminder to thank Uncle Cheng, and also to thank Uncle Cheng for lending me money, I hereby decide that if you want to buy wine, you will be charged 100 taels."
Cheng Yaojin: "???"
At this time, hearing Li Xiao's words, the common people also looked at each other in blank dismay and began to discuss one after another.
"Crazy! Crazy! A jar of wine sells for 100 taels, but it's still considered cheap, and it's increased to 200 taels. Who would buy such expensive wine?"
"That's right, 100 taels can buy a smaller shop!"
"We ordinary people can't earn 100 taels from the busy work at the beginning of the year to the end of the year!"
Everyone was shocked by the price quoted by Li Xiao.
Even Li Junxian and Lu Li were surprised.
They thought that this wine would be very expensive, but they didn't expect it to be so expensive.
They knew that the raw materials of this wine were ordinary wheat and some auxiliary materials, and the total cost of ten jars of wine was estimated to be less than one tael of silver.
But now, ten jars of wine are sold at a sky-high price of 1000 taels.
As long as one jug of wine is sold, all the costs are recovered, and there is even a surplus.
If all are sold, then...
Hard to imagine.
too crazy!
This earning speed is terrifying.
But, will anyone really accept such a sky-high price?
Even though Li Junxian had confidence in this wine, he couldn't help but retreat in his heart at this moment.
Chapter 108: Profiteer
"Can't we discuss it any more?"
Cheng Yaojin smiled wryly, and looked at Li Xiao helplessly.
At this moment, he could see that Li Xiao was clearly in Qian's eyes.
Not crazy.
But really want to price it that way.
He was about to reprimand a few words, but before he could say it, Li Xiao gave him enough face and allowed him to buy it at half price.
But this half price is also an astronomical figure!
It's not easy for him to blame Li Xiao, so he can only find a way to spend less money.
He also thought about giving up this wine.
It's just that every time he thinks of the taste of that fine wine, he can't help being a little intoxicated.
So he also gave up.
No matter how expensive it is, it's only 100 taels a jar, and he still doesn't pay attention to this amount of money.
In short, no matter what, we must win the next altar.
"Uncle Cheng, I've already given you a discount. It can't be any cheaper. The materials I use for this wine are very precious. 100 taels is already the cost price. I hardly make any money."
Li Xiao shook his head and said, you don't need to write a draft if you lie.
After speaking, he also gave a wry smile in his heart.
They all say they hate profiteers.
Now he has become the kind of person he hates the most.
No way, he is too short of money.
At this time, just when everyone thought Cheng Yaojin would leave the stage angrily.
But seeing Cheng Yaojin's face full of pain, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! 100 taels is 100 taels!"
"King Yue, since you and my son are good friends, you can be regarded as your own, why don't you sell more jars?"
However, Li Xiao shook his head and refused: "There are no rules, and since Uncle Cheng also said that you and I are our own people, then we must support the younger generation, how can we set this precedent?"
"You... oh, let's go!"
Cheng Yaojin finally agreed with a face full of pain.
One person can only buy one jar per day, and he knows that he can send his subordinates to buy it, but the price will be doubled!
And this wine, you can only buy one jar a day, how can you drink it?
"Then Uncle Cheng pays the money!"
Li Xiao also looked helpless.
This Cheng Yaojin is really too honest.
It was said that Cheng Chumo was invited by him to be the shopkeeper. With the father-son relationship between the two, it would not be easy for Cheng Yaojin to want to drink in the future?
But Cheng Yaojin didn't seem to have thought of this at all.
Afterwards, under the unbelievable eyes of everyone, Cheng Yaojin paid the money excitedly, holding the bought wine in his arms like a treasure.
"My God! I can buy it for 100 taels? Is it because I haven't seen the world? Or is the world crazy?"
