Cheng Yaojin finished a bottle of Coke in just a few gulps and was in a very happy mood.
He urged Zhuang Zhou to get two more bottles.
"Brother Ah Chou, actually, this Coke would taste better if it were chilled!"
It is early autumn now and the weather is still hot.
However, the Coke that Zhuang Zhou brought was kept at room temperature, which was far from achieving the optimal effect.
When the space-time gate gets bigger in the future, I can find a way to get the refrigerator over.
Of course, the prerequisite is to get the generator over.
It’s interesting to think about bringing all the modern electromechanical equipment to Chang’an City!
After dinner.
Zhuang Zhou took out some Jin Junmei tea and made some tea. Cheng Yaojin didn't like tea, so he just gulped down Coke.
Li Er glared at him fiercely, wanting to pretend not to know him.
This guy is so embarrassing!
He looked like he had never seen the world before.
You are the great Duke of Lu!
"Brother Qin, come and try this tea."
Anyway, the shop is not busy because Ma San is taking care of it.
Zhuang Zhou simply drank tea in the backyard.
After chatting with Brother Qin Min for a while, Zhuang Zhou discovered that this man also had extraordinary conversation skills.
Especially the calm temperament emanating from him makes people feel weird.
It was a feeling I had never experienced before.
It's a bit like talking to a leader, but feels more intimate.
It's just weird anyway.
"Brother Zhuang, I see you're not from the Tang Dynasty, right?"
Just then.
Li Er suddenly asked again.
"Ah! Yes, I am a Nanyang merchant, but my ancestral home is in Chang'an. After my father passed away, I inherited his will and came to Chang'an to do business."
Li Er looked at Zhuang Zhou's face. He had black eyes, yellow skin and black hair. He was obviously from the Central Plains.
He nodded slightly and said, "Well, since we are in Chang'an, we should work hard here from now on!"
Zhuang Zhou rolled his eyes and said, "You still need to tell me that."
“…”
Li Er was a little embarrassed. This guy didn't give him any face at all!
Feeling offended.
However, it was Zhuang Zhou's true nature that made Li Er feel it was real.
Li Er is not the kind of person who likes to hear flattery.
Come to think of it, Li Er could tolerate even someone like Wei Zheng.
Who else could hurt him with just their mouth?
After a pause, Li Er thought of something:
"By the way, Brother Zhuang, are all these amazing goods in your grocery store from Southeast Asia?"
Coming here today, in a short period of time, Li Er saw several magical items.
And the desk lamp that Changle brought back is no exaggeration to say it is a rare treasure.
These goods are definitely not produced in the Tang Dynasty.
Zhuang Zhou's expression suddenly became serious:
"Yes, these are all products that are exclusively sold by our Zhuang family. Outsiders cannot get them."
Li Er didn't ask any more questions. When doing business, everyone has an exclusive channel.
Next, Li Er asked about the cooking techniques of braised spare ribs, steamed pork with rice flour, etc.
I just realized that there is such a thing as stir-frying.
In short, it opened up Li Er's brain circuit.
The two chatted for a while, and Li Er suddenly said:
"Brother Zhuang, I want to place an order with you."
Zhuang Zhou felt pleased. It was worth it that I kept talking to him. Finally, the deal was done.
"Okay! What do you want to order?"
"I want to order sweet potatoes."
Zhuang Zhou: “…”
I was originally full of confidence, thinking that I would order some great products and make a fortune.
But who knows, order sweet potatoes?
This thing is hard to move!
But I think it's just a business deal, it just depends on how much the other party wants.
So, Zhuang Zhou asked directly:
"Sure! How much do you want to order?"
"How much do you have and how much do I want?"
Zhuang Zhou: “…”
Why does this sound so familiar?
Are all the people in Chang'an so wealthy?
After a while, Zhuang Zhou smiled and said:
"I have so much, so much more than you can imagine, I'm afraid you won't be able to buy it all."
Li Er was surprised, but soon calmed down:
"Brother Zhuang, do you think these sweet potatoes can be planted directly?"
"right!"
"Then I can buy less and grow my own in the future."
When Li Er said this, Zhuang Zhou immediately understood.
"Brother Qin, I think you two are not ordinary people, right?"
Li Er was shocked. What happened?
Has my identity been exposed?
Then I heard Zhuang Zhou say:
"Are you planning to buy sweet potatoes, plant them, and then sell them to the government to make money?"
"ah?"
Li Er and Cheng Yaojin looked at each other and smiled knowingly.
"Yes, yes, yes. I do have that idea. Do you know how sweet potatoes are grown?"
"I know this! It's very simple."
Zhuang Zhou thought for a moment and said, "How about this: if you buy a lot, I'll give you a copy of the Sweet Potato Planting Manual."
Li Er raised his eyebrows. There is also a planting manual?
“How long will it take to get a harvest?”
Cheng Yaojin burped and interrupted to ask a question.
"If you plant last year, you will have a harvest next year."
Zhuang Zhou has never grown sweet potatoes, but he has heard of them.
"That's just wonderful!"
Li Er seemed very excited, but Zhuang Zhou certainly had no idea what he was so excited about.
"You haven't told me yet? How much do you want?"
"Let's start with a hundred stones!"
"Wait...let me convert it."
Then I heard Zhuang Zhou mumbling something.
One stone is 120 jin.
One hundred shi is equivalent to... twelve thousand jin.
