I lead the system to tease the First Emperor to build infrastructure
Chapter 253 Profiteering
Not only the people in Shunan County were shocked, even Zhao Jun was very surprised when he heard about it.
She didn't expect that someone could sell the tea so quickly.
This part of the credit is probably due to the relatively open business environment in Shu County.
If it weren't for the fact that there were so many merchants here, I'm afraid the sales would not have been so smooth.
Not to mention the Xin family, Mrs. Xin sold all the tea that she had baked before, so she got a lot of money.
At the same time, Xin Da did not hide the selling price of the tea from the villagers.
Their county is very united, and the selling price of rabbits has also been set at a uniform price before, and now it is no exception when it is the turn of tea.
The prices of the entire Shu County are unified, and the rest is to find customers according to their own abilities.
Zhao Jun was very relieved to hear the news. At first, she thought about asking the government to regulate the price, but now it seems that it is unnecessary.
But because of this incident, she became even busier.
If it is said that only the people of Shunan County joined in the fun to learn the baking method.
As a result, now I got the news that the selling price of tea is actually higher than that of rabbits, so this is a major matter involving eating.
As a result, more and more people from surrounding counties are willing to come to Shunan to learn how to bake.
However, the method of roasting tea requires experimentation, and some steps need to be demonstrated for two or three days.
So she decided to take Lu Jing to the surrounding counties to publicize and explain.
This is much more efficient than those common people running over to study by themselves, and there are still many common people who have no place to stay.
Mr. Zhao has already spoken, and of course Lu Jing has no objection.
It happened that Xiao He and Liu Bang were stationed in the wild these days when they went out to build roads and did not return to the county.
There were only the two of them and a chattering county magistrate left in the county. Now that they had the opportunity to hide, they both felt very good.
The two hit it off and began to give public lectures on tea baking in several major counties in Shu County.
For a while, the whole Shu County was extremely lively, not only that, the wild tea trees on the mountain were bald by everyone overnight.
They spent a total of more than half a month on this trip, visiting several major counties in Shu County.
The people in the entire Shu County have basically learned the method of baking.
Later, in addition to the Xin family, some other families promoted their own tea, which made the tea picking and making tea more popular in Shu County.
The two who had been "wandering" for more than half a month finally completed the task of the last county and returned to Shunan.
At this time, the team of workers led by Xiao He had opened up the road from the south of the tree to Zhou County, and basically leveled it with stones.
"Oh, we've been exhausted from running for half a month."
Zhao Jun, who had already returned to the county government for a night's rest, sat in the yard and stretched lazily.
"My lord, Xiao He and I have been exhausted from eating and sleeping in the open for half a month."
Liu Bang echoed with his legs crossed.
"You guys are making a lot of noise. When we were building roads, there was no one who passed by and didn't talk about it."
Xiao He sat there holding a cup of hot tea with a light smile and teased.
"You don't know that every time we go to a county, the people of the whole county come to welcome us, and even give us gifts, and even praise Mr. Zhao as a female Bodhisattva."
"I didn't expect this tea to be sold at such a high price before. It's incredible."
Lu Jing sat on the other side and couldn't stop laughing and sighing.
"Anyway, we have achieved our goal at the beginning, and even overfulfilled it. The rest is for the people of Shu County and you, the county guard."
Lu Jing:?
"Is there anything else I need to do after this?"
Zhao Jun continued to speak paralyzed.
"It's gone for the time being, but I still have a few words to explain later."
"First of all, I am very optimistic about the tea market. I don't know when those merchants will come again, but when they come again, they may buy a large amount of tea. But now there is nothing on the mountains of Shu County."
"Winter is coming soon, and the next time tea will be on the market may be next spring. If a large number of merchants come to Shu County to buy tea, then the government needs to step in."
"Because this is the first time for sale, we are the first time, and those merchants are also the first time, but the tea in Shu County may be in short supply until tomorrow."
When she said this, she glanced at Lu Jing who was stunned.
"So what is the government going to do at this time?"
He didn't understand.
Zhao Jun didn't hang on to him and continued.
"If next year's tea leaves will be in short supply, then the price will still be sold at this year's price, and the money in the middle will be earned by the merchants."
"I don't open workshops anymore, but my idea can't be for nothing."
"Pfft."
Xiao He who was sitting on the side couldn't help laughing out loud, fortunately he just drank the tea, otherwise he would have to spit it out.
Zhao Jun glared at him and continued talking.
"Of course I'm not making money for myself, I'm thinking of the court."
"So what the government has to do next year is to re-adjust the price of tea to at least double, and then start to levy an appropriate amount of tea tax. In this way, the common people will probably be able to earn a little more than this year, but the government has also collected money. This is not killing two birds with one stone. "
Lu Jing understood, he stared at Zhao Jun for a long time.
Why is this man so smart?
"In this case, both of us will benefit, and the loss will be the money of those merchants."
He had already seen through it, no wonder Xiao He wanted to laugh just now, probably because he understood Zhao Jun's tricks a long time ago.
"That's impossible. It's impossible for those merchants to lose money. Believe it or not, even if the price of tea doubles next year, they will happily buy it. They don't even care if it doubles."
"Why, because their selling price may directly increase dozens of times. Anyway, their main customers are those aristocratic families, and they are not short of money."
Zhao Jun looked up at the sky, even though she was already so treacherous, she still did not hinder the businessman from making profits.
Things like tea will definitely not sink to ordinary people in the first place. For the time being, they can only be enjoyed by dignitaries.
But it doesn't matter, I'll take their money.
"My lord is still as cunning as ever."
Xiao He sat on the side and lowered his head and sighed.
Zhao Jun ignored him, the word cunning was a compliment.
"Don't talk big here, the roads in Zhou County are no longer a problem, right? I can go around here almost, so I can go back to Zhou County."
Zhao Jun murmured.
Xiao He raised his eyebrows and glanced at her.
"I thought my lord had forgotten, it's already the beginning of September."
"If we hurry up, we can leave in mid-September. If we think about it, one month may not be enough to return to Xianyang."
"Well, it seems that this year will not be able to make it in time to go back for the New Year. I don't know what the king and the eldest son will think."
