Da Qin: From a disciple of Fusu to a generation of imperial masters

Chapter 163: In the sparsely populated West Market, the black-hearted shopkeeper with a gloomy face is in an unexpected situation!
The guy from the West Market looked pale at this time.

When the goatee shopkeeper told him the price of selling salt, he was already shocked.

Unexpectedly, this man with a goatee would actually name guests who had been in the military or whose family members had been in the military.

Buy a can of salt and get a can of salt as a gift. The salt is so cheap that you don’t have to worry about selling it.

Now he is still winning people's hearts, and soon the whole Xianyang City will know about this salt shop in Beishi.

Thinking of this, the clerk turned around quickly. He wanted to go back to the West Market and tell the shopkeeper the news.

The man with the goatee also saw the boy turn around and leave. From the beginning, he guessed that the young man was a boy from the West Market Salt Shop.

Since he opened a salt shop in Bei City, he had no intention of hiding anything. This guy would tell the shopkeeper about the situation here when he returned to West City.

Only then will the battle really begin, since Fusu asked him to be in charge of the salt shop.

He was ready for battle, and with Mr. Fusu's support behind him, he was not afraid of any salt merchants.

Xianyang Chengxi City!
Outside all the salt shops, there were only scattered pedestrians queuing up to buy salt.

Someone in the West Market shouted that the North Market sells cheap salt, and many pedestrians left one after another.

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen the West Market with so few pedestrians.

"Shopkeeper, you saw it too."

"Not only our store, but also other stores have very few customers coming to buy salt."

"Will this salt shop in Bei City take away all our business in West City?"

A waiter looked at the fat middle-aged man with a trace of sadness on his face.

They all make money by buying salt. No customers to buy salt means no money.

Seeing this situation, I felt very frightened.

"Humph!"

"The largest salt mine in Daqin is controlled by a few salt merchants in West City."

"The so-called salt shop in Bei City is just a lie."

"Even if the salt he sells is cheap, how long can it be sold without the support of a salt mine?"

The fat middle-aged man had a mocking look on his face when he heard what the guy said.

He has been a shopkeeper in Xishi for so long and has encountered various situations.

He was not at all panicked by the scene in front of him.

"The shopkeeper is right, the villain is short-sighted."

"There is no salt shop that can compare with our West City salt shop. Song Feng has been to Bei City for a while, why hasn't he come back yet?"

When the man heard the middle-aged fat man's words, the fear in his heart dissipated.

He was talking about another clerk who was sent to Bei City by the shopkeeper to check the situation of the newly opened salt shop.

The middle-aged fat man frowned slightly when he heard the boy's words. He had sent his boy Song Feng to Bei City for so long, so it stands to reason that he should be back now.

"Tap Tap!"

A burst of rapid footsteps reached the ears of the middle-aged fat man and the waiter.

Song Feng, who was sent to Bei City before, ran back to the store panting and pale.

"Shopkeeper, something serious has happened!"

Song Feng looked at the fat middle-aged man and said it with a pale face.

The faces of the middle-aged fat man and the other waiters changed drastically, and they were still queuing up to buy some salt.

There was a trace of doubt on his face. This was the first time they saw the salt seller acting so strangely.

"No salt is sold today. Several customers went to other stores to buy salt!"

"You guys come in!"

The middle-aged fat man's face turned gloomy when he heard the clerk's words, and asked the clerk to take back the bag of salt and return to the store.

Several customers who were about to buy salt looked confused as to why they suddenly stopped selling salt.

Several people looked at each other. They had just heard that there was cheap salt for sale in Bei City.

It's just that a few of them had doubts in their hearts and didn't go there, since they couldn't buy salt in this store in the West Market.

It would be better to go to Bei City to have a look. After discussing it, they left West City and headed to Bei City together.

"Explain what's going on!" The fat middle-aged man entered the store and sat down, looking at the clerk Song Feng with a gloomy face.

Song Feng is the one he trusts the most among the several guys, and he leaves many things to Song Feng.

Just now Song Feng came back in such a mess, he knew what must have happened in Bei City.

When the other waiters heard what the shopkeeper said, they looked at Song Feng and didn't even dare to breathe.

They were also salt sellers like Song Feng, and this was the first time they saw Song Feng being so eager.

"Shopkeeper, this newly opened salt shop in Bei City is indeed selling cheap salt."

"The money needed to buy one jar of salt in the West Market can buy three jars in this store in the North Market."

Song Feng looked at the shopkeeper and quickly told the shopkeeper and several other clerks the money he had seen to buy salt in Beishi.

"what?"

"If you buy one can of salt in the West Market, can you buy three cans in the Bei City? Are the salt shops in Bei City crazy?"

The faces of several waiters changed greatly when they heard Song Feng's words. As salt sellers, they not only deal with salt but also with money every day.

They didn't expect that the salt sold in Beishi was so cheap. One can of salt in West Market could buy three cans in Beishi.

They know what this price means, and if they are customers selling salt, they will also choose to go to Beishi.

This price is so cheap that no customer can refuse this price.

The fat middle-aged man sitting in the main seat had a gloomy look on his face when he heard Song Feng's words.

In the past, he had also encountered salt shops selling salt at a cheaper price than them, the cheapest salt.

It's only slightly cheaper than the salt they sell. I didn't expect this new salt shop to open in Bei City today.

The salt sold was actually so cheap, which was a bit beyond his expectation.

"Humph!"

“Refining salt from salt mines costs a lot of money.”

"The salt sold by this salt shop in Bei City is so cheap. The quality of the salt sold by this shop must be worse than the salt we sell to the common people in West City."

"Only in this way can the salt from this salt shop in Bei City be so cheap."

"Wait until the people taste the salt and realize how unpleasant it is."

"You will know that cheap goods are not good, and this store in Beishi is just a flash in the pan."

The middle-aged fat man looked at the pale-faced guys on the side and said something to reassure them.

In his opinion, if salt is so cheap, the refining process must be very rough.

The taste is incomparable to the salt they sell to the people.

"The shopkeeper is right, refining salt requires a lot of money, so the salt sold so cheaply in Beishi must taste very bad."

"People who have bought salt in Beishi will know that they have been fooled when they know that the taste of salt is so bad."

"It's not that easy to fight with Xishi."

"It's a false alarm, but the shopkeeper is still awesome."

When the waiters heard what the shopkeeper said, their faces returned to normal.

They were really panicked when they heard Song Feng's words. The price of a can of salt was so different.

After hearing what the shopkeeper said, they learned about the fraud involved in buying salt in Beishi.

The middle-aged fat man also had a smile on his face when he heard the words of his fellow workers.

These guys have been following him for many years, and if they have fear in their hearts, it will have an impact on his business.

What he just said was enough to restore their calm.

The middle-aged fat man looked at Song Feng, and he found that Song Feng's face was still pale and there was a hint of fear.

He was very confused. He had just explained why Song Feng still looked so flustered?
"Song Feng, didn't you hear what I said?"

The middle-aged fat man looked at Song Feng with a hint of doubt in his eyes and said.

When the other waiters heard what the shopkeeper said, they also looked at Song Feng. They also noticed that Song Feng's face was still so panicked.

"The shopkeeper!"

“The salt sold in Beishi is not only cheaper than that in Xishi, but the quality and taste are not comparable to the salt sold in Xishi salt shop.”
