The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

As soon as the tea box was placed on the table, Zhang Deyuan didn't need to explain this thing much, the people below began to get agitated and started bidding.

Soon, the price of tea was raised to 5,000 guan.

This was the cheapest price among the ten boxes of tea in the last auction.

At this time, this price was unstoppable.

It is also known that the price of ten boxes of tea will become more expensive as time goes by.

This thing is simply unaffordable for ordinary people.

Moreover, tea can't be placed for a long time after it is bought, especially this flower tea, which is bought to be enjoyed immediately. Want to collect it?

The longer the time, the worse the quality, the less valuable it is.

So it has no collection value, just because the new tea has outstanding quality, complex craftsmanship, and rare and precious production.

"Six thousand strings of cash!"

"Six thousand two hundred strings of cash."

"Six thousand three hundred strings of cash."

The price went up, but the increase was not high. Everyone was thinking and watching.

Basically, the price of the special tea gift box at this auction may be determined. After it is determined, the price will be similar in the future.

Private room on the third floor.

"Speaking of which, the tea gift box of the special tea does not have a strong aftertaste. People who have experienced it last time want to continue to buy it, and people who have not experienced it want to broaden their horizons. Logically, the price should not rise so slowly." Li Fu said: "Moreover, the price of the wine gift box is half cheaper than the tea, which I did not expect."

"The tea is this year's new tea, and the Wude wine in the wine gift box has only been stored for more than a year at most. The older the wine, the more valuable it is." Li Yuan smiled and said: "The price of wine that has been stored for a year is very different from that of wine that has been stored for ten years."

"In the future, if you have aged wine that has been stored for ten or twenty years on your farm, the price will be more expensive than tea. However, if you have such aged wine on your farm, other families may also purchase a batch and hide it in the cellar."

"Rich families don't lack this little money. They all store it in their own cellars."

Li Yuan explained a few words to Li Fu.

Li Fu nodded.

"That's the truth." Li Fu smiled: "People with such financial resources may not bother to buy aged wine from outside. They will store a large amount of wine in their own cellar every year. After ten or twenty years, they can drink the old wine they stored every year."

"No wonder the people who come to the manor to purchase are also sent by those aristocratic families. The amount of wine they purchase is not much less than those restaurants in Chang'an City, or even more. Every time they bring back a carload of wine."

"Those wealthy families have many people at home. Once a banquet is held, one carload of wine is not enough. If they have the opportunity to store wine on weekdays, they must prepare more. The wine in your manor is not available when you go there." Li Yuan smiled and said: "I heard from them that you have to pay and queue up first?"

Li Fu spread his hands.

"You know, there is only one wine workshop on my farm. It's such a small place, and the annual output is just that much. The consumption of Jingyang Palace is relatively small. After all, my nephew doesn't drink much on weekdays. Excluding the ones sent to the palace, the rest is really not enough to share with so many people who come to order."

"Even in the palace, my second brother didn't say that he would openly use Wude wine to entertain guests."

If so, a banquet in the palace would be enough to consume the three-month output of the workshop.

Just think about it, for example, the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in the palace, such a banquet was held, and there were hundreds of officials attending the palace banquet. How much would they drink?

There are several banquets of all sizes in the palace throughout the year.

"Now the reservations for Wude wine on the farm have been scheduled until next year. Those with the later orders may not be delivered until the end of the year." Li Fu said: "After the new wine workshop is opened next year, it will be much faster."

Li Yuan nodded slightly.

"Because of the shortage of Wude wine in the market, the price has soared." Li Yuan smiled and said, "Your farm has a lot of good things."

Li Fu smiled.

Yes, if you don't bring out some good things, how can the Jingyang Palace gain a foothold in Chang'an City? How can such a large family business be maintained?

Relying on the rewards from the palace and your own salary, you can't do anything.

Not to mention that for an idle prince like me, according to the court system, the rewards and salaries are not much.

There was a wave of reduction in the first year of Zhenguan.

Most of those who opposed the reduction of the kingship and rewards were like Li Fu.

They may have some merits, but not much.

They enjoyed the support of the court during the Wude Dynasty, and in the Zhenguan Dynasty, the courtDifficulties, Li Shimin did not want to support them with generous salaries.

"The things are good, but they also bring a lot of trouble to my nephew." Li Fu sighed: "How many people are watching my nephew's life and property. Whenever my nephew goes out, he has to be accompanied by a lot of guards. Every time he leaves Chang'an City, something will happen."

Speaking of this, Li Yuan was also angry.

For example, many people were beheaded in Chang'an City this spring, and this matter also reached Li Yuan's ears.

The key is that when it came to him, it was not about what those who were killed did, but came to him to cry and say how cruel Li Shimin was. Within one day, he beheaded hundreds of people on the streets of Chang'an.

As for the mistakes they made, they didn't mention a word.

It was when Empress Changsun came to pay respects that Li Yuan asked about it. Empress Changsun said that 70% of those who were killed were assassins, and the rest were the masterminds behind the assassins, and their families.

As for who the target of the assassination was,

Of course it was your good nephew who left Chang'an.

Li Yuan got angry when he heard this.

Good fellow, he said bad things about his son in front of me, and pleaded for the assassins of the royal family, but he didn't say that these people were beheaded because they had bad intentions against King Jingyang.

Well, well, one by one, you are taking me as a fool, right?

You think you don't know anything about the outside world when you are in Da'an Palace, right?

Li Yuan got angry.

These old ministers, they came to Da'an Palace to sit, drink, play mahjong and chess together because of the original friendship, which was also considered as companionship.

This guy is obviously trying to sow discord between father and son. These old guys dare to say black is white.

When they met again, Li Yuan scolded them without giving them a good look, saying that if such a thing happened to him, not to mention the hundreds of people, but the whole family, he would not let it go.

This is the nth time that Prince Jingyang has encountered trouble.
