Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 239
[Chapter 239 Exhibition]
“Deputy Director Dong, I heard that there is a fight in the palace because of the new goods sent by King Yan.”
A son of an official came to Yang He at this time and cupped his hands.
“What?” Dong An was bewildered.
“You don’t know? The news spread all over last night, saying that the items sent by King Yan this time are shocking to the world. All the nobles in the city are here,” said the young man. Then he glanced at
Yang He beside Dong An, and asked: “Who is this?” Before he could finish his words, the young man approached obsequiously, asking for his health. Dong An simply went to arrange the goods with the buddies of the firm. When a bottle of wine in a glass bottle was taken out, exclamations erupted from the surroundings immediately. ”Is this a new product from the palace? What is that transparent thing?” ”It is said that this thing is called glass.” ”There is also perfume, so beautiful.” ”No wonder the concubines are fighting.” ”…” The surrounding Whispering made Yang He slightly proud. He thought that he would spend some effort to attract people, but now it seems that he doesn’t need it at all. ”Deputy Director Dong, leave me a hundred bottles of this batch of new products, and the money is not a problem.” A man dressed luxuriously and with a pot belly said, he is an Englishman. ”I want to order five hundred bottles of perfume, so you must give it to me first.” A woman with heavy makeup said, she is the madam of Yuanyang Building. ”I want a thousand bottles of wine.” ”Three hundred bottles.” ”…”
The exhibition has just started, and there are voices asking for orders one after another, and even the price is no longer asked.
Yang He and Dong An looked at each other the same way, with a smile in their eyes.
Obviously, this glass-packed high-end product will soon become a hot item in the capital, and the nobles and nobles in the city will flock to it.
This time, not only the wine and perfume were sold, but also the glass that contained the wine and perfume.
However, this was just the beginning, when the glass mirrors were taken out by the shop assistants and displayed on their chests one by one.
The surrounding area of the exhibition suddenly changed from noisy to silent.
Whether it is common people, wealthy businessmen, or children of powerful families, they all stare at the smooth mirror.
Under the sun, their figures appeared in the mirror, just like real people.
“Is this the mirror that the concubines are talking about?”
“It goes without saying.”
“God, this is terrible.”
“…”
After a brief silence, the exhibition hall suddenly boiled, and the noise covered the business. Buddy’s introduction.
“Five hundred taels, I’ll take it.”
“I’ll give you one thousand taels, give me first!”
“…”
The crowd shouted their prices loudly.
Yang He and Dong An looked at each other, this time he didn’t bring many mirrors, a total of thirty mirrors, and half of them were sent to the palace.
A total of fifteen were displayed.
“It’s better to sell it on the spot. Those who buy the mirror will definitely brag about it everywhere. This is tantamount to promoting it to the business.” Dong An said.
Yang He nodded, they thought of being together.
So he said: “Everyone, there are only fifteen mirrors in this business. Since you are so enthusiastic today, if you don’t buy them, I really feel sorry for those who came to join us. In this way, the fifteen mirrors are sold separately, and the one with the highest price will get it. ”
“Stop rambling, it’s not short of this money, hurry up if you want to sell it.” Some people want to buy it to make the beauty smile, and they can’t wait.
Yang He laughed, “Okay, that’s the beginning, the first one will start now, one thousand taels.”
“One thousand taels.”
“One thousand three hundred taels .
”
When bidding.
A carriage passed slowly on the street in front of the exhibition venue.
At this time, a slender hand as white as jade lifted the curtain, revealing half of his face.
But just this half of the face made the passing scholars stand still, completely forgetting to hurry.
“The goods that King Yan sent this time seem to be very popular in the capital again.” The corners of the woman’s mouth rose slightly.
“What the princess said is very true. His Royal Highness King Yan has always been obsessed with money. I am afraid that he will become the richest prince in Dasong in the future.” Another woman’s voice sounded in the carriage, but it was Xu E.
And the woman with her is none other than Princess Changle.
After returning to the capital, she often went in and out with Princess Changle.
“I’m afraid he is also helpless. His land is so barren, how can he get rich without commerce.” Princess Changle bit her red lips lightly.
Xu E nodded, hesitated for a moment, and asked a question that had puzzled her for a long time: “Since the princess intends to help His Royal Highness King Yan, why did you let the servant’s family return to the capital?”
Chang Le smiled, “Even if you don’t come back, I’m afraid Yan Wang is going to find out about you soon, King Yan seems to have established his own secret organization, and these people are very powerful.”
After a pause, she continued: “In this case, it is unnecessary for you to stay. , it is better to go back to the capital, always monitor the movements in the capital, and provide him with information that is not good for King Yan, after all, these black-hearted ghosts in the court are more dangerous than Yuan Li.”
Suddenly, Xu E looked at the profile of Princess Changle, who was three points more beautiful than herself, with admiration, envy, and a hint of jealousy and hostility in her heart.
The carriage did not stop, and slowly passed the exhibition venue.
At this time, the bidding price at the exhibition also reached its climax.
The first mirror was bought at a high price of 3,600 taels.
Then the second, third, and fifteenth mirrors were all sold.
A total of 42,000 taels of silver was collected on the spot.
Those who bought the mirror hugged the mirror tightly like a baby.
Some returned home and gave them to their wives.
Some went directly to brothels and gave them to their lovers.
Some went to a noble mansion and gave mirrors as gifts.
And when these people got the mirror, there was an endless stream of visitors at home.
The residence of the royal family.
Wang Yue, Wang Zi’an’s daughter, hugged the mirror and refused to let go.
She was surrounded by ladies and gentlemen who came to watch.
They asked Wang Yue to lend him a look at the mirror.
“No, no, you have watched it so many times, don’t spoil the mirror.” Wang Yue refused to let go.
“You girl, is mother willing to give it?” Wang Yue’s mother pinched her waist.
This mirror was bought by a son and given to Wang Yue.
Otherwise, it won’t be Wang Yue’s turn, and she has to use it first.
“Mother doesn’t give it either.” Wang Yue snorted, “If you have the ability, you can ask Dad to buy you one.”
“Hey!” Wang Yue’s mother became angry when she heard the words.
At the same time, glass mirrors in other places caused a lot of confusion, and also created a lot of chatter after dinner.
In a certain brothel, the mirror was accidentally smashed due to a fight, and the plastic sisterhood was broken, so it was a big shot.
On a painting boat in a river, a wealthy businessman uses a mirror to capture the heart of an oiran, stay overnight and so on.
It’s just that these things spread out, but virtually made the glass mirror more mysterious and desirable.
For a while, merchants ordering glass mirrors at the entrance of the firm were busy.
Many merchants went directly to Yan County, trying to get the moon first.
