Chapter 167: How Many Drinks? (The third more, please subscribe!!) )
Among the four princes who stayed in Beijing, the eldest prince Qin Wang Ji Yu has little activity, the third prince Zhao Wang Ji prefers martial arts, and the seventh prince Wei Wang Ji Wen didn't know what was wrong a few days ago, and he also began to close his house and no longer see guests, only the fourth prince Qi Wang Ji Huan is currently the most well-connected and has the greatest influence in the capital.
This purple-clothed son, who is not very tall, is the fourth prince of the Great Jin Dynasty, King Ji Huan of Qi.
Cui Jiuniang, who was standing on the high platform, and Li Xin, who was standing on the third floor and watching, frowned at the same time.
Li Xin called Ping'er, the maid on the side, and said in a deep voice: "Now, go and invite His Royal Highness King Wei to come over." ”
The Seven Princes have been busy making wine and sending it to the north recently, and the steaming speed of the Wei Palace's mansion is obviously not enough, this His Royal Highness the King of Wei is about to buy the Shochun Wine Workshop in the south of the city during this time, and he is so busy that he has no time to be proud.
The four princes are all here in person, if the seven princes don't come, no one here is qualified to be an opponent with His Royal Highness the King of Qi.
This wine sale was hyped up by Li Xinxin's series of modern marketing methods, and his original idea was that today's jars of wine would be sold for at least two or three hundred yuan per jar, but now as soon as the four princes came out, the price was forced to fifty yuan.
The shochu wine in the south of the city is also a more famous wine in the capital, which can be sold for three or four yuan, and ten catties of shochu can be steamed out of about three catties of zhurong wine, which means that the cost price of a jar of zhurong wine is ten yuan.
Although you can make a lot of money by selling fifty guan now, the price is very high at this time, and when you really start selling it in the future, the price will definitely have to be lowered a lot, plus the process of steaming wine, you won't make much money at that time.
All in all, he can't let His Royal Highness King Qi buy these ten jars of wine in fifty jars.
Cui Jiuniang, who was in charge of the overall situation on the first floor, naturally recognized the Seventh Prince, she stepped down from the high platform and bent slightly to the Fourth Prince in purple: "The slave family has seen Your Highness." ”
Qi Wang Ji Huan squinted his eyes, glanced up and down at Cui Jiuniang, and said in his mouth: "Good figure, no wonder my seventh child often spends the night here." ”
Cui Jiuniang is the outer chamber of King Wei, although many people in the capital know about it, but no one dares to say it to his face, but this His Royal Highness the King of Qi is the same as the Seventh Prince, so he said it without any scruples.
Jiu Niang's face changed slightly.
She took a few deep breaths and smiled reluctantly at the fourth prince: "His Royal Highness King Qi is laughing, His Royal Highness is coming to buy wine today?" ”
"yes."
Ji Huan smiled: "I heard that there is a top-notch liquor in Deyi Building, and this king is famous, and I want to buy it back and taste it." ”
As he spoke, he looked back at the crowd of spectators in the proud building.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Boss Cui said that these ten jars of wine are bidding, and now this king is out of fifty, can you increase the price?"
You have spoken, who dares to fight with you as a prince......
There was silence.
According to the reason, the identity of the prince will not appear openly in the Qinglou Chu Pavilion, so as not to tarnish his worth, even the seventh prince comes to the proud building on weekdays, but he also comes secretly, who knows that the fourth prince actually openly arrived at the proud building.
Ji Huan put his hands into his sleeves and smiled at Cui Jiuniang: "Boss Cui, it seems that not too many people want to buy your spirits, and no one is willing to bid anymore." ”
"In that case, the king of these ten jars of wine will be taken away?"
Li Xin frowned secretly on the third floor.
Ten jars of wine are actually small things, the fourth prince just wants to buy it back and figure out how to make this spirit, there is no way to steam the wine, the four princes will not be able to make this kind of pure liquor in their lifetime.
But today is the most critical part of his toasting and hype, and he can't let this King of Qi mess up.
Cui Jiuniang on the high platform showed embarrassment, not agreeing, not agreeing.
Li Xin casually called a maid from the proud building and asked her to pass a message to Cui Jiuniang, this girl went all the way down the first floor, walked up to the high platform, and whispered in Cui Jiuniang's ear.
Jiu Niang took a deep breath and smiled at the four princes: "Your Highness, the sale of this Zhurong wine is not just to make money, the original intention is to let all the guests drink it for a long time, so these ten jars of wine, each of the guests present is limited to one jar." ”
Speaking of this, Cui Jiuniang bent over to Ji Huan and said: "Your Highness is a noble person on the clouds, and it is a blessing for you to be able to drive to the Proud Building, and the slave family will let people send a jar of wine to the Qi Palace, and they dare not accept His Highness's money." ”
Ji Huan glanced at Cui Jiuniang with a smile, and then looked back at these visitors in the proud building.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Boss Cui said that he would give one jar of wine to Lone, and the remaining nine jars, can you buy them?"
That's a good question to answer.
No matter how good the wine is, it doesn't matter if you have a net worth or your life, and no one in the audience will offend a powerful prince because of a jar of wine.
His Royal Highness King Qi clasped his hands in his wide sleeves and smiled at Cui Jiuniang: "Boss Cui, you see, this king only takes one jar, and they don't want to buy other wines, so why don't you sell them all to me." ”
This is the oppressive force brought about by the disparity in status.
Ji Huan, who is not tall, just stood here with a smile, which made Cui Jiuniang feel a little breathless.
Cui Jiuniang, who has always been calm and composed, was helpless for a while.
Li Xin, who was standing on the third floor, shook his head helplessly and slowly walked down the stairs.
Although the daughter's family is careful in doing things on weekdays, when it comes to emergencies, she often loses her calm and has no calm thoughts.
Li Xin, who was dressed in a cyan single robe, walked down the stairs slowly, and bent down to Ji Huan and bowed his hand: "His Royal Highness King Qi." ”
A smile appeared at the corner of the fourth prince's mouth: "Captain Li is young, and he also likes this kind of fireworks place?" ”
Li Xin shook his head slightly, and said in a deep voice: "If you don't come here to enjoy yourself, don't hide it from Your Highness, these ten jars of wine are not things from the Deyi Building, but I put them on consignment in the Deyi Building. ”
Ji Huan glanced at Li Xin and said with a smile: "So, is Captain Li unwilling to sell this wine to this king?" ”
Li Xin didn't hesitate and nodded.
"Your Royal Highness, Li Mou sells wine today, just to seek wealth, although His Royal Highness is a nobleman, fifty times an altar is also a bit too bullying."
"Today, His Royal Highness will either take one jar of wine and leave, and in a few days Li Xin will send a few more jars to the palace of King Qi, or he will spend a lot of money to take all the ten jars of wine away."
Ji Huan clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Okay, there are so many people present, and only Captain Li dares to talk to this king like this, Captain Li, you, how much money does it cost to buy it." ”
"Two thousand."
Li Xin squinted his eyes and said, "Two thousand guan, Your Highness can take these wines away." ”
Ji Huan's face remained unchanged, and he said indifferently to an attendant behind him: "Give money." ”
A prince's mansion costs more than 50,000 yuan a year, and these princes have properties in many places in the capital, and each of them is very rich.
Qianguan's house can be regarded as a middle-aged household, and two thousand guan is an astronomical amount for ordinary people, but for the prince of the Great Jin Dynasty, it is just a number.
Soon, the 2,000-yuan Chase Money Bank bill was handed to Li Xin.
Li Xin took it with a calm face, and said to the guests of the proud building around him: "You have seen it, today's ten jars of wine were bought by His Royal Highness the King of Qi for two hundred yuan and one jar, and there is no one for the time being, but this wine is still being brewed, and after a few days, a new wine will be released, and it will still be sold in the proud building!" ”
There was an uproar.
This hype could have won a big victory, but now it can be said that it has been stirred up by Ji Huan alone.
However, Li Xin also unceremoniously transferred the main contradiction to Ji Huan's head.
His Royal Highness King Qi didn't care, squinted his eyes and smiled: "Captain Li has a good means, he has said several times that he wants to have a few drinks with Captain Li, but he has never had a chance, do you want to appreciate your face today?" ”
Li Xin was silent for a while, and finally nodded.
"Your Highness, please go upstairs to the private room."
