Chapter 1028. shopping

As long as there are business opportunities, the business groups in Damin are always moving quickly.

In Damin, the business community also has a presidential leader, the Fujian commercial bank, the private property of the king of Fujian, the semi-official chamber of commerce, whenever the country has a big move and a new policy, the chamber of commerce will always be the first to get the news, in order to survive, the rest of the small and medium-sized chambers of commerce also have to put their ears long, open their eyes, once the Fujian Chamber of Commerce has a slight move, immediately follow.

As for the business opportunities in Qom City, you don't even need to follow the trend to know that the 600,000 army, although the army is in charge of food and clothing, but there are greedy soldiers who come out to fight on vacation, and the climate is impermanent, many people also need to add or subtract clothes, the Min ** regiment is not a poor egg in the past dynasties, and the military salary is paid every month, and there is no big expense, especially the main army of the Sixteenth Guard and the cavalry of the Ning Iron Cavalry, which is even more generous.

There are also the families of the officers, the minister's inner house, and it is impossible to leave the state affairs behind when going on the expedition, Li Jie brought most of the imperial court with him, and on the huge territory of Fujian, officials from various states and counties, and thousands of official documents from the Chong Prefecture were continuously delivered.

In order to reduce the resistance of the ministers to the expedition, Li Jie had to allow the ministers to also bring their families, and they were placed in the city of Qom, not far from the front line.

After the battle of the Shatt al-Arab, the reorganization of the northern and southern Arab mercenaries, the strategy of the South Arabian Peninsula, had to let the Fujian army stop, half a month, the business of Qom City sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, the streets and alleys are full of newly opened shops, restaurants, soup cakes in Guanzhong, Hu cake signboards fluttering on the street, in the restaurant, Tianzhu's hand pilaf exudes a rich aroma, a chubby tea owner Maitreya Buddha smiling and sitting in the shop, they are even from Huizhou, Jiangnan, What was brought was Huangshan tea.

The shops are crowded, and even the local homeless community and the Arab community have been squeezed out of the city, and many Arabs have directly worked in local workshops, and urbanization has smoothed out the fierce edges and corners of the locals little by little.

Every day, the procurement of various high-level gates, and even the group purchase of the quartermaster of the legion, can bring considerable benefits to Qom City, but today, even the various shop owners who have seen the world are trembling with some shock.

"Your Hu Cake Benzi is all included, and they are all sent to the Confucian military camp!"

"I want all the cotton cloth in the store, boss, you can find more than 20 tailors for my son!"

"All the best Shaoxing rice wine will be sent to the barracks!"

In the midst of the shouting, under the dumbfounded gaze of Yao Chong and Song Jingtu Baozi, they came from three people empty-handed to the present followed by dozens of carts, and the two of them knew that Li Chenxi's bold words when he came out were really not playing falsely when he bought the last store.

In a Huizhou tea house, Li Chenxi and the tea boss like a fat pig argued skillfully, while Yao Chong and Song Jing didn't dare to say a word in distress, like two followers, and today they were really shocked.

The tea boss at the counter also had a bitter face.

"This son, this is really the best Huangshan tea, transported from the Tang Dynasty thousands of miles away, the light and water roads have walked two seas in a row, this eight yuan a box, it is really not expensive, it depends on how much you want, the small one will give this price, Xiao Shilang's house on East Street, the small one is ten yuan a box."

The exchange rate of Fujian is equivalent to two silver coins and one tael of silver, which is equivalent to more than 1,200 yuan in later generations, and Yao Chong and Song Jing's monthly income is only about seven to eight yuan, which is still a subsidy in wartime, and they can only buy less than one box of such a delicate small tea box a month.

"Amin, the legion has tea every month, so you don't need to buy tea anymore, right?"

couldn't help Li Chenxi's loser behavior, Song Jing still couldn't help but step forward with his head beating and persuade, but unfortunately, his bitter heart didn't stop Li Chenxi's loser's heart.

"The army issued all tea bricks, all of which have been processed inferior black tea, the effect is several times higher than this green tea, our Confucian soldiers are about to join Li Rang's command, most of his subordinates are Central Asian barbarians, they are used to meat, and they will die of fatigue if they don't buy more tea!"

Song Jing, who listened to Li Chenxi's straightforward words, opened his mouth and stammered, and the fat tea boss was full of joy when he heard it, and he couldn't stop nodding his head and said: "That's right, that's right, at first glance, Gongzi is a person who understands tea, and the tea bricks supplied by the army are all Darjeeling tea near Xinhan Valley Pass, all of which are big-leaf dwarf teas transplanted by Bashu, picked by those Tianzhu stupid people, and then directly fried and pressed into tea bricks, with poor quality and jerky taste, it's just rubbish!"

"Our tea, but it is all genuine Huangshan small leaf cloud tea, the breath is sweet, containing musk and the sweet fragrance of grapes, you see, the tea color is bright and moving, the entrance is mellow, and the aftertaste is endless, you smell this smell, it is countless times worse than those inferior tea bricks!"

After all, Yao Chong and Song Jing were born as students, and they also knew a little about the tea ceremony, looking at the tea soup that the tea boss had refined with tea powder, the two of them really sniffed carefully, and couldn't help but nod approvingly.

Seeing the appearance of the two of them, the fat boss couldn't help but be even happier, a little obscenity suddenly appeared on his fat face, and when he turned around, he took out a more delicate tea box from the counter and opened it in front of the three of them.

The tea box is indeed more exquisite, and the outer corners are even silver-plated, which looks antique, but the tea leaves inside seem to be no different, pinching a piece of tea buds, Song Jing asked suspiciously: "This, what is special about tea?"

"Of course it's different!" Patting his thigh excitedly, the boss explained with great interest: "This is roasted tea!"

"Roasted tea? This is clearly green tea! Seeing that this big fat man was playing tricks, Yao Chong, who thought he had a high IQ, was immediately displeased, and asked with some annoyance: "Didn't the store bully me and don't know how to wait for tea?"

"There, there, the little ones don't dare!" Hurriedly waved his hand in fear, and the fat on the fat boss's face was immediately full of obscene smiles, rubbing his hands and explaining with a smile.

"This is truly superb, lip and tooth roast tea!"

Looking at Li Chenxi's three interested appearances, the lewd smile on the tea boss's cheeks that all men understood deepened, and his excited eyebrows were raised.

"This tea is the Huangshan tea pickers carefully selected fifteen or sixteen beautiful virgins, in the early morning when the sun does not rise on the mountain, only take the tip of the leaf is the most tender, do not use hands, and use the red lips to choke, the shell teeth are slashed, placed in the bamboo basket on the chest, with the girl's breast milk dried on the top grade of the tea, so it is called lip and tooth roast tea."

"In the early morning, the yang energy has not risen, the essence of the stars and the moon is left in the tea, coupled with the condensed virgin aroma of pure yin, this tea is even more aftertaste, with a strong virgin aroma and **, there are only a few small boxes every year, which is definitely priceless."

With a smiling face, the fat boss pushed the tea box forward, and said with a little pain: "It's hard to know the sound of tea, a few sons know so much about tea, how about the little one give this box of roasted tea to the three sons?"

Yao Chong and Song Jing were really moved, after all, they are men, not to mention the quality of the tea, just the girl's lips and teeth are sent to each other, and the pepper milk is baked, and this charming reverie when drinking tea can make people linger, but just when the fat boss thought he had a plan, he didn't notice that Li Chenxi's white forehead on the edge was full of green tendons.

"Tea, a hundred boxes, two through a box!"

As soon as he heard this, the fat tea boss almost didn't jump up like a wasp stinging his buttocks, and his fat face was full of anger and disbelief, and he shouted in disbelief: "Childe is not joking, right?" This is Huangshan tea, which was shipped across half the world. ”

"The old man sees that a few sons have good faces, and they are people who understand tea, so they are so gracious, and the son doesn't want to be an old man to be bullied!"

Listening to the fat boss's angry voice, Yao Chong and Song Jing were also a little embarrassed, eight to two runs, more ruthless than blocking the waist and slashing, as soon as they came in, the fat boss greeted each other with a smile, making both of them feel a little sorry for the fat boss.

But before Yao Chong could open his mouth to persuade him, Li Chenxi's slender fingers had already lightly tapped on the tea box, and he pointed to the round mountain pattern that a person didn't pay much attention to and asked coldly, "What is this?"

Just now, he was angry, looking righteous, and when he saw Li Chenxi's finger, his fat face couldn't help but tremble subconsciously, and then he said stiffly: "It's just a decoration!"

"The Fujian Chamber of Commerce has opened up a total of four large tea areas in the Himalayas, Darjeeling, Assam, Duaz, and Nilgiri, respectively, with circles of double mountains, three mountains, four mountains, and clouds and mist in one, two, and three circles to distinguish the origin and height."

"Shuangshan Sanyun, hum, the Darjeeling tea that the store said is an inferior tea!"

The tea boss's face turned completely pale, and Li Chenxi counted with his fingers again.

"Ten catties of a box of standard tea, the price of the goods on the mountain is consistent, from here bulk to the west of the Zagros Mountains, the transport ship is about four hundred dollars a box, the recent Min military supplies are indeed blocked in the mountain road, but it seems that the recent goods are going to the Persian Gulf Basra Port, the transportation cost has been reduced, plus the manual storefront, a box of tea, two or more!"

Yao Chong and Song Jing couldn't help but be dumbfounded, they couldn't imagine that there were so many curves in the small tea leaves, and the tea boss's face turned purple eggplant, his hands trembled for a long time, and the fat tea boss simply roared in annoyance.

"You guys, get out! I'm not going to do this business! ”

Listening to this hissing and scolding, Li Chenxi's cheeks, the cold smile was a little colder......
