Reborn Ming Dynasty as Emperor

Chapter 155 Quick Chapter Palace

Chapter 155 Quickly Return to the Palace (Sixth Update!)
As soon as Chen Laitou uttered these three simple words, the whole room burst into laughter, and Gong Yonggu, the captain-in-law, laughed even more.

Only Wei Guangwei pretended to be reserved and kept silent. He knew that His Majesty was watching from above, so he didn't want to ridicule Chen Laitou, but there was obviously some unkindness in his eyes.

What is the purpose of sending a mirror to imply that Mr. Wei Ge should not be blinded by fame and wealth, and should always look in the mirror to reflect?
Chen Laitou ignored the ridicule of these people, he carefully placed his silver mirror on the desk, and uncovered the silk cloth, and pointed to the silver mirror and said:

"This is the new mirror newly developed by Xiaguan. Even if the old man has money, he can't buy it. The back is made of unit price silver coating, and the front is made of glass, which is a kind of transparent glass. The Academy of Engineering's latest success, replacing iron by redox, got this."

Everyone was quiet at this moment, no one could understand what the fifth-rank official was saying, and what they were staring at now was only the silver mirror that could clearly reflect their own face.

Boss Long touched his face and couldn't help sighing that he had gained weight again, and that dude Shang Bao Sicheng also secretly said:

"I look so ugly, I don't seem to be worthy of the second lady from Ge's hometown."

Wei Guangwei smiled knowingly, looked at Gong Yonggu and then at Chen Manitou, and then thought that this silver mirror was produced by the Royal Academy of Engineering, and now His Majesty came to observe it in person, and he roughly understood His Majesty's true thoughts .

"Looking at the treasure today, it is the most unique but practical item, which is necessary for my daughter to dress up."

As Wei Guangwei spoke, he asked Gong Yonggu, Captain Gong Yonggu, "What does Concubine Gong think of this treasure?"

Gong Yonggu touched the Linghua silver mirror pretending to be dull, and said in shock: "To be honest, I have never heard of it, I have never seen it, Gong has lived for decades, and only now knows that the world can create Such a mirror, look, my white hairs are all reflected."

Some prominent businessmen who were nearby also came over, even if they didn't take it seriously, they still felt extraordinary after being boasted by Concubine Gong.

Gong Yonggu saw that these people were nodding repeatedly, and some people had already secretly calculated the value of the silver mirror and wondered whether it was 100 taels or 200 taels, so he couldn't help smiling secretly, and hurriedly said to Chen Laitou: Brother-in-law, how much is this kind of mirror worth? My son-in-law bought it together."

"500 taels!"

Chen Laitou reported a number according to what Gong Yonggu said in advance, and looked around with some anxiety. You know, his cost is less than ten taels of silver.

"Okay, let's just say, how much do you have?" Gong Yonggu hurriedly asked again.

"The business of the lower officials is the royal business. It has a large scale and many craftsmen. You can make as many as you want, my son-in-law." Chen Laitou answered him according to Gong Yonggu's pre-arranged arrangement.

After Gong Yonggu heard this, he couldn't help thinking, and then he patted the table and showed a sly smile: "Well, brother Chen, my son-in-law intends to buy a batch of silver mirrors from you and send them to Jiangsu and Zhejiang for sale, but I don't have the principal now. I'll use the 5000 taels as a deposit first, how about ordering a hundred mirrors from you, and tomorrow, I will send someone to deliver the silver."

"Yes, since this is the case, we can only accept goods with more than 500 pieces, and the deposit must be one-tenth of the total price." Chen Leitou said so, and some people have ideas to make this deal with Chen Leitou The prominent merchants in the business couldn't help shaking their heads, and they all secretly blamed the son-in-law's words for setting the price of this silver mirror at once. Two, merchants naturally can't set too high a price for selling goods, which will reduce the trading space, but now that the purchase price is fixed, if they do this business, their profits will drop a bit.

However, this is still profitable, and it is likely to be a huge profit, otherwise the son-in-law would not be in such a hurry.

At this time, Elder Wei Ge also cooperated even more, saying: "I also need an extra one hundred dollars to do some small business, Zhou Rui, go and tell Qi'er to take 5 taels of silver notes and give it to Master Chen. Sex is over."

"Mr. Ge is really generous." Boss Long cupped his hands to Chen Laitou as he said that: "This gentleman has invited you, and the student wants to order three hundred noodles. This is a stack of bank notes, which should be around one hundred thousand, so pay first." For this part, the remaining students will send someone to make up for it, and please leave the location of your residence."

Chen Laitou left the address of the Royal Industrial Company, and took the banknote. At this time, several other giants and dignitaries were afraid of missing this opportunity to make a fortune. Seeing that everyone else was making reservations, they hurriedly paid for it When they came to make a reservation, some took [-] to [-] yuan, and some took a few thousand, but after getting tired, the banknotes in Chen Laitou's hand were enough to reach the thickness of city wall bricks.

Chen Laitou didn't expect to receive so much money without even selling half of the silver mirror, he couldn't help but glance at Concubine Gong, secretly thinking that Concubine Gong did have some skills.

……

Seeing this, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help smiling, thinking that Gong Yonggu was really a pearl left over from the long river of history, and this kind of half-coaxing and half-earning business method was enough to be regarded as a successful marketing expert in later generations.

Seeing Xu Fu secretly laughing next to him, Zhu Youxiao asked, "What are you laughing at?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, I didn't laugh at anything, I just think these rich and powerful businessmen are a bit stupid, and I still don't understand that this son-in-law and that old master Chen are in the same group." After Xu Fu replied, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but feel a little bit excited. After looking at Xu Fo for a few times, he couldn't help saying: "That's because they are greedy for profit. They only know that the silver mirror is sold for money, but they forgot to observe the morals of the world."

As Zhu Youxiao said, he asked Xu Fu again: "Who is it that ordered two hundred silver mirrors just now?"

"Lin Bozhi, Minister of Guanglu Temple, Jinshi in the second year of Tianqi, a wealthy family, his brother is a big tea merchant, with an annual business turnover of about 300 million taels." After Xu Fo answered, Zhu Youxiao asked again: "What is it? Who is Boss Long?"

"A student in a county school in Jiangyin County, Southern Zhili Province. After failing twice in the township examination, he gave up his studies and started a business. Now he has become a first-class salt merchant. He has always spent money like water."

Zhu Youxiao asked a few more people, and seeing that Xu Fo could answer them one by one, he was also very satisfied with her memory.

At this time, the melodious sound of the piano suddenly came from outside the house. Zhu Youxiao had just drank a few sips of tea, and felt that the sound of the piano was very provocative. Suddenly, he felt that the fragrance in the room was getting stronger. more and more beautiful.

"Go, go back to the palace immediately!" Zhu Youxiao hurriedly stood up and walked out, but his face turned red obviously.

At this time, a woman who looked three points more beautiful than Xu Fu suddenly came over holding the qin, bowed to Zhu Youxiao and said, "Little girl Wei Miner pays tribute to Your Majesty!"

Wang Chengen, who was walking in the front, stopped when he saw a girl standing in front of him, but Zhu Youxiao was furious: "Why are you still standing there, go back to the palace!"

 It's 12 o'clock, and the update is over. A total of seven chapters have been updated today, with a total of more than 4000 words, but the first order has not exceeded a thousand, so miserable!
