Text Chapter 302 The West Market Opened

Pang Ti's idea was taken as a formal task, and when he returned to the Eastern Mountains, Li Zhi first gathered people to collect all the vacant wine jars.

On the second day, leaving the three daughters on the hill to make the first wine, he went down the mountain to receive the men from the huge jar of wine, which he placed in the underground cellar.

Tong Lao Liu, Lao Wu Tou and others were all distributed to all parts of Chang'an City, and all the jars that could be bought were purchased in a centralized manner.

At this time, the transport trucks from Lishan also came one after another, and Li Yi was busy brewing all day long.

As he had previously requested, the first two days were all wild mountain grapes, which seemed to be a special grape variety with a large core and few flesh, which was difficult to use, but matched the aroma, taste, general body and structure, which were the main factors that determined the taste of the wine.

When other mountain fruits came to Chang'an City, the dozens of huge wine jars came in handy, at this time Li Yi and others also officially returned from Fengyang County, Lao Liu Tou tasted the real monkey wine, and he didn't have time to ask where the recipe came from, so he was very active in the brewing of fruit wine.

Those huge jars of wine almost held nearly a hundred carts of pulp, and by the time the underground cellars were filled one by one, it was time for the store in the West Market to open.

The third floor of the East Market was rebuilt into a jade shop, and the original paper business such as rice paper was all transferred to the first floor of the West Market.

Among them, the color paper with the word "Yuzi" quickly attracted people's attention, and before noon, the grand opening of the East Market began to take shape there.

The snuff and snuff bottle monopoly on the second floor fell into a hot rush earlier than the first floor, and the people who came were all families or wealthy people, because there was another passage, through the backyard directly to the second floor, and also avoided the crowd on the first floor.

The cheapest glass-textured snuff bottle, the lowest price is more than two taels of silver, and the lowest quality of white jade is not less than 100 taels, because the style, color, and size are different, and the price can reach up to 430 taels.

It is a thing with a price of dozens of taels, which has become a luxury category, and some people have just questioned it, thinking that the price is a little too high, and the figure has been overwhelmed by the crowd of people who rushed to buy it from behind.

In addition to the white jade is the snuff bottle made of chalcedony, the lowest cheap position is also above five hundred taels, and it is the smallest of the kind of leftovers, although the same carved beauty, but the capacity can also hold half a tael of snuff.

The largest chalcedony pot products are already as big as the palm of the hand, and their prices have also climbed to more than 1,000 taels, and the two most expensive non-sale products are only customized, and have been marked with 5,000 taels and 5,300 taels.

This kind of non-sale product is bright red all over, one is golden throughout, but they are all transparent as ice, the eye can see it, the texture is delicate to crystal clear, the color is pure and thick, the pure natural bright and bright color, enamel, inlay combined, the inner wall is painted with landscapes, flowers and birds, and there are several rows of miniature carved poems, which is already a national treasure.

The family that was originally arrogant and boasted of being worth a lot of money repeatedly complained about the crowded environment on the second floor, but when he saw the two snuff bottles sealed in a transparent glass cover, he no longer saw his previous domineering words.

There is no other reason, only that the price of these two pieces has reached more than 10,000 taels, what is the concept of 10,000 taels of silver, and it can already afford to buy the Liujin Mansion in the most prosperous area of Chang'an City.

And it is only a small spoon of the same texture attached to the lid, and the price alone has reached a hundred taels, and in front of them, no one dares to claim to be rich, after all, this is only a small snuff bottle.

Soon, someone learned that the Dongshi Zhengqing Wenqitang Jade Shop also opened on the same day, a round crystal transparent yellow, purple accompanied by cat's eyes, the price of 11,000 taels, instantly shocked the self-proclaimed rich people here.

What made them even more uneasy was that the price of the jade shop was more than 10,000 taels, and there were actually more than a dozen pieces, and only these hundreds of thousands of silver lines could already buy half of the West Market.

Originally still waiting to see the intention of buyers, without saying a word, they went to the counter to hand over the silver taels, it turned out that the snuff bottle that was priced at a few hundred taels in Zhengqing Wenqitang was only the lowest grade of jade products, and then hesitated here, I am afraid that it is really faceless to stay.

When the first batch of panic buyers went out, they were surrounded by people who were still waiting in line outside to ask for details.

Almost all the people who were questioned were helpless and smiling, and they all knew that the goods sold by Zhengqing Wenqitang were of excellent quality and the prices were also expensive, but when they came here today, they knew that their previous cognition was only rare.

Just when the people who squeezed out refused to leave, the people who came in a steady stream of people came later, and the three-story natural house spice monopoly also opened near noon.

The reason for the postponement of the opening time is to take into account the continuation of the sensational effect of the overall nature, and to have a soothing and guiding effect on the already crowded scene.

There is no need to approach, smell all kinds of natural floral fragrances that can reach the first floor, which has faintly overflowed, and the mood of smelling is suddenly comfortable.

Entering the door, rows of snuff bottles with the size of the snuff bottle with the pattern of the color are already in a dazzling state, appearing in the sight of everyone, each bottle is only ten drops of the huge labeled banner, hanging at the entrance of the third floor, and the price card from ten taels has blinded the eyes of the guests.

As a result, what is essential oil has instantly become the most asked topic by everyone, but as the women present were sprayed with a few drops of essential oil for free to dilute the water, and the fragrance overflowed all over the body in a blink of an eye, all the women were no longer calm.

Then I learned that a drop of essential oil can be mixed with a pound of mountain spring water, and the individual is the diluted aroma, and the first reaction of the value for money makes the rush form in an instant.

In charge of this room are the three daughters of Pang Ti, and Li Zhi is personally taking care of the snuff monopoly on the second floor.

The popularity of the third floor also spread to the second floor in a very short time, Li Zhizheng smiled and showed everyone the Migu wood snuff bottle he used, and the goods of the same material are also furnished here, but they are not the size of the normal snuff bottle.

The reason for the display is that although these Migu wood snuff bottles are quite beautifully carved, their price is more than the highest price of white jade by 500 taels.

Such a lofty thing, but it showed a very ordinary wooden material, which was the question they asked Li Zhi, but when they saw Li Zhi holding it in his hand, and after a moment of starry light, everyone who saw it was shocked.

Obviously, this wood is the rumored sacred wood with life, and after a short time, no one has asked for a uniform price of five hundred taels, and after learning that it is currently in limited supply, twenty Migu wood snuff bottles were sold out in an hour.

Seeing that the things carved from the branches of the Migu wood were so sought-after, Li Zhixin was secretly surprised, twenty was already ten thousand taels of income, and the news also spread throughout half of Chang'an City in a short period of time.

At this time, every guest who rushed to buy it was shocked by the light that appeared and disappeared in his hand.

In the Tang Dynasty, which was deeply influenced by the beliefs of the three religions, the people who verified the miraculous appearance of the sacred wood with their own eyes listened to Li Zhi's explanation into the black texture pattern, which deeply rhymed the spirituality of the Buddha, and then there were people who believed in Buddhism on the spot to confirm it.

In the remaining days, a steady stream of Buddhist believers rushed in, but after learning the news of the temporary shortage, there were many people who couldn't help but beat their chests.

This is a later story, not to mention it for the time being, at present, the opening of Zhengqing Wenqitang in the West City, as well as the news that it is still popular, are spreading in the east and west cities.

The southern businessman who was engaged in spices and medicines in the West Market, who once asked Li Zhi about the opening of the West Market in the East Market, was surrounded by nearby merchants at this time, all of whom were from Guangzhou and Quanzhou, and they were also similar to the group of merchants who monopolized the West Market.

The southern businessman was smiling bitterly at the moment: "What did I say before, I thought about it, I once came to the door and asked if people could kill the West Market, so that the hot rush to buy was still there, and I only felt blush at this time!" ”

"But I have to admit that the spices of Zhengqing Wenqitang are really genuine, and the refining method is also a secret, compared to others, the goods in our hands are called garbage, and it is not an exaggeration to say a little!" Some people interpret it this way.

"Quite a few days ago, Mr. Li once told me that the shops in the West Market will open in a few days, that is, they are engaged in spices and medicinal materials, and they are still positioned as high-end goods, including many of the top luxury goods in the world, and will not crowd out the business of our southern compatriots.

"Yes, although his medicinal materials have not yet been listed, according to his explanation, they are only finished medicines, and at this time there are only finished essential oils, Zhengqing Wenqitang will not have an impact on our original business products, on the contrary, it will drive the spice market to prosper."

"Yes, what Brother Hongyu said is true, this morning in my store, people kept coming to ask about spices, although the sales volume only increased slightly, the market is bullish is also an indisputable fact!"

The southern businessman's expression was indescribably complicated, "It's ridiculous that when I left, my face was full of disbelief, and I was even more vaguely unconvinced, after all, the market in the West Market is completely different from the East Market, and the audience level is very low, I thought that his expensive things would not be able to start in the West Market!" Hehe, now it seems that it is obvious that people were already confident at that time. ”

"I still need the product to speak, but I've heard that just a kind of nose bottle made of divine wood sold out of only twenty in an hour. The average price is 500 taels, and 20 is 10,000 taels of silver, I think all the net worth here is combined, and it is not worth half of this transaction, right? Mr. Li is a terrible person, and this person is not just a businessman! ”

"As a miracle doctor, the sales of patent medicines will inevitably be so hot in the future, and our medicinal materials will also be stained with great light!"

Similar remarks filled all corners of the West Market throughout the day.

At this time, Qingqi and the other three were so busy that their feet barely touched the ground, the one in charge of explaining was still the big fool Qingqi, Pang Qi was responsible for spraying perfume to the newcomers, and Yu Ran was directing the clerk to do some storage work.

From time to time, fashionably dressed rich girls entered, and they all followed the source of the fragrance all the way, and were instantly infected by the emotions of all the smiling women present.

Just simple roses, there are more than a dozen different aromas, once the use of the effect will be wonderful, which rich people do not want to try a few more flower aromas, and just as Qingqi they expected before, as long as the people who have tried it, the silver is really like flowing water, and it can be sold hundreds of bottles in one morning.

The price of essential oils is as low as ten taels, and the highest is hundreds of taels, and there is an income of several thousand taels of silver when sold in 100 bottles.

The only three kinds of non-sale products, for the price of five hundred taels of three rare color essential oils, only accept deposits, Qingqi is called a rare treasure, and it takes ten days to have three bottles can be refined.

The three colors are indeed a cherished category, but they will never be so expensive, in fact, this is just a promotional gimmick of Li Zhi.

It is just a promotional name to attract the attention of buyers, in order to increase marketing profits, such a very tempting gimmick, can be very low-cost, very effective to capture the customer's curiosity, and form a topic among consumers, attract them to participate and buy, and attract other categories to sell.
