The Golden County Magistrate

Chen Yan thought about it. At this point, there was nothing to hide about this matter, not to mention that Zhang Dabiao was already his confidant.

"Do you know why Zhao Changhe raised an army to respond to the rebellion of the King of Yan?"

Zhang Dabiao was refreshed: "Sir, please don't keep us in suspense! What is the reason?"

Chen Yan smiled mysteriously and lowered his voice: "When Zhao Changhe was young, he had an affair with the King of Yan's biological mother! So when that guy heard that the son of his first love was going to rebel, he immediately responded! It was not for the King of Yan, but for his first love!"

Zhang Dabiao suddenly realized and slapped his thigh: "No wonder! But this matter is so secret, how did you know it, sir?"

Chen Yan laughed: "What kind of personality do you have, sir? I want to develop our green mountains. Can I not make the environment first? There are many love letters in the two. I try to give Zhang Luo in my hand. OK, the textbooks of the camp are not in vain! "Zhang Dabiao grinned:" Both adults teach Fang! " The child quickly explained, "It was the Zhou Family Chamber of Commerce sent someone to say that Yaochi Xianxian had something wrong!" "What can that happen?" Chen Yan was relieved. "Manager Zhou's people said that a new shop called 'Yaochi Divine Brew' has opened just opposite his shop!" Lu Qing'er paused and emphasized, "It's only one word different from our Yaochi Fairy Brew! And the word 'God' is in front of them, and they are even better than our 'Fairy'!"

"Oh, it really started." Chen Yan couldn't help but smile.

He was not surprised at all.

Merchants value profit, as long as they can make money, they can do anything.

As long as someone has a popular project, there will definitely be copycats, and sometimes even bad money drives out good money, and the original authentic ones can be squeezed out of the market.

This behavior is of course immoral, but it is difficult to prohibit.

After all, there is no patent law, trademark law, copyright law, etc. in this era, so it is impossible to directly prohibit people from doing so.

And the technical content of milk tea is not that high. Even if the other party cannot imitate it exactly, they can imitate 60% to 70%.

Just like Tian's cosmetics, which became popular before Yaochi Fairy Wine, some merchants have already launched follow-up products some time ago, and they have also learned the marketing routines he taught the Tian family.

These were all expected by him.

"What should we do now?" Lu Qing'er said worriedly, "I heard that the things they sell are very similar to ours, and the price is half the price!"

"It's okay, sir, I have already prepared it. You can ask the people from the Chamber of Commerce to see me, and I will find a solution."

...

Beijing.

In the palace, Tang Yun looked at He Jinyao in astonishment: "What did you say? Is there anyone else selling Yaochi Fairy Wine?"

She was busy with state affairs, and only had some free time at this moment, so she summoned He Jinyao to inquire about business matters, but she never thought she would hear about this.

He Jinyao reported: "I have inquired clearly. The other party's shop is located next to the west city gate. The owner's surname is Yang. However, the name of the wine sold by his family is a little different. It is called 'Yaochi Divine Wine'. But its color, smell, and taste are somewhat similar to our Yaochi Fairy Wine. Even the containers used are quite similar to ours. And the price is only 150 taels per bottle, and the weight of each bottle is twice as much as ours!"

Tang Yun frowned and said, "Isn't that troublesome?"

He Jinyao sighed, "Our Yaochi Fairy Wine is so popular that it is inevitable that some people will be jealous."

Tang Yun couldn't help but get irritated and paced back and forth.

"This matter is a bit troublesome. You can't just order them to close down."

You know, Zhou's Chamber of Commerce is just a civilian organization on the surface.

Not to mention the relationship with her as the emperor, even the relationship with the Ministry of Revenue is kept secret.

If she directly orders, the background of Zhou's Chamber of Commerce will inevitably be exposed.

But this matter cannot be left unhandled.

This is about the disaster and civil unrest in Jizhou. If we don't quickly gather the money for disaster relief, all the hard work we have done before will be in vain!

"That's not necessary. Chen Yan once mentioned to me that this might happen in the future." He Jinyao said.

"What? He could actually predict this?" Tang Yun was surprised.

"And it's not just this one situation. He mentioned several other situations to me."

"For example, someone might get jealous and send someone to steal or destroy the Yaochi fairy wine."

"Another example is that maybe someone will buy the Yaochi fairy wine from us.'s secret recipe."

"It is even possible that some dignitaries will bully us and force us to transfer the business to them."

"Such situations have all occurred, and they are all accurate."

"Lord Chen's careful and thorough thinking is really admirable!"

He Jinyao said with emotion.

Tang Yun has been busy with state affairs these days and has not personally taken care of the Yao Chi Xian Niang. He was surprised when he heard it: "What did you say? All these things have happened?"

He Jinyao nodded and said: "Yes, but your majesty does not need to worry. Lord Chen has already told me how to deal with it. I have followed his instructions one by one and have solved them all."

Tang Yun became curious: "He taught you how to deal with it? ”

“The guards I sent have arrested six groups of people who intended to steal and sent them to the government office;”

“These days, someone comes to Zhou Yang every day and wants to buy the secret recipe of Yao Chi Xian Niang at a high price. I have asked him to refuse all of them;”

“What’s more troublesome is that King Ning came to my house in person and forced Zhou Yang to inform the owner of Zhou’s Chamber of Commerce that he wanted to buy the shop. If he doesn’t agree, he will have someone seal our shop…”

He Jinyao was just talking about this when Tang Yun was furious and said, “How dare he bully others with his power! Okay, I want to see if his power can be greater than mine!”

He Jinyao hurriedly said, “Your Majesty, don’t be upset. I have solved this matter according to the instructions of County Magistrate Chen.”

Tang Yun calmed down a little and asked, “How did you solve it?”

He Jinyao said, “I asked Zhou Yang to tell King Ning that it is better to die in glory than to live in disgrace. If His Royal Highness King Ning wants to seal it, then seal it. From now on, there will be no more Yao Chi Xian Niang! "

Tang Yun was stunned: "So simple?"

He Jinyao stroked his beard and smiled: "It's that simple. County Magistrate Chen said that His Royal Highness Ning Wang likes this best. It would be more painful to lose Yaochi Xianniang than to kill him. It is impossible to make this Xianniang disappear. Sure enough, His Royal Highness Ning Wang never mentioned this matter again. "

Tang Yun was surprised. Unless he knew Ning Wang to a certain extent, how could he be so sure?

"So, there is a countermeasure for following the trend?" She asked anxiously.

"This..." He Jinyao sighed, "The only thing that didn't ask for a countermeasure in advance is this following the trend. When I asked him about it, County Magistrate Chen only said that he had his own way. I have sent people to Qingshan. According to the time estimate, almost everyone should have returned to Beijing with the news. "
