I have been a county magistrate for ten years. My subordinates insist on giving me a yellow robe.

After hesitating for a long time, Zhao Li finally spoke first: "If County Magistrate Jiang thinks the price is too low, we can discuss it again."

Jiang Yuan nodded and stretched out a finger.

Although according to Jiang Yuan's estimation, there was still room for at least twenty taels of silver in Zhao Li's words, this was the first business in Taiping County after all.

As the saying goes, "good luck in opening a new business", Jiang Yuan was willing to accept an additional ten taels of silver.

Zhao Li didn't even think twice and nodded in agreement, "Okay, one hundred taels of silver per jar. County Magistrate Jiang, I agree to this price!"

Jiang Yuan stretched out his finger and did not retract it for a long time. One hundred taels, this price was far beyond his expectations.

But Zhao Li agreed so readily, it was obvious that the price could be even higher.

"Damn it! I worked like a slave for capitalists in my previous life, and now I'm still being ripped off by them in this life!"

Jiang Yuan cursed in his heart, but he still nodded and agreed to the price.

There is no way, Taiping County is extremely short of money now.

Although the food and silver obtained from Heiyun Mountain and Huang Yuanwai's family in the early stage were enough to feed hundreds of people in Taiping County.

Those outsiders have come here with their families, so naturally there is no need for the county government to bear the cost of their food and drink.

But that's it.

Should the collapsed city wall in Taiping County be rebuilt? It should be noted that Taiping County is located on the border of the Great Duan Dynasty, and the nomadic peoples bordering it would come east to plunder from time to time.

In addition, various facilities such as post stations and road construction in Taiping County are free of charge.

And it is not a small amount. At this point, Jiang Yuan no longer expects disaster relief from the state government.

It doesn’t matter. I’m not an official for you guys anyway.

Thinking this way, Jiang Yuan quickly reached an agreement with Zhao Li.

Taiping County supplied Zhao Li with 100 jars of fine wine every month, and Zhao Li bought them at the price of 100 taels of silver per jar.

Zhao Li must pay the full amount for the first three purchases. After the third time, Zhao Li can pay half first and pay the remaining half when he comes to purchase next time.

In addition, Zhao Li was not allowed to tell anyone that the wine was produced in Taiping County and was required to protect the privacy of Taiping County.

Jiang Yuan mentioned hundreds of items like this, and by the time Zhao Li finished reading them carefully, an hour had passed.

In the end, both parties reached the deal without any objection.

Zhao Li took out ten silver notes from the package, each worth one thousand taels of silver.

Jiang Yuan happily handed over the banknotes to his subordinates, and at the same time asked them to move the fine wine they brought to Zhao Li's caravan.

In the end, Jiang Yuan brought a total of 119 jars of nectar. Zhao Li looked at Jiang Yuan awkwardly and said, "County Magistrate Jiang, I really don't have any extra banknotes. I need to save the remaining money for travel expenses. Look at these 19 jars..."

"This is for you!" Without waiting for Zhao Li to finish his words, Jiang Yuan waved his hand.

"This, how can this be done?" Zhao Li could hardly suppress his smile.

A jar of nectar is worth one hundred taels of silver, and he can sell it for at least one hundred and fifty taels. This way, he has earned three thousand taels of silver for nothing.

Jiang Yuan smiled silently as he walked towards the carriage. He glanced at the cargo on the carriage and changed the subject:

"Since Mr. Zhao doesn't want to take advantage of me for nothing, then give me a few carts of tea as compensation."

The expression on Zhao Li's face froze. Why didn't this guy play by the rules?

Normally, isn’t it that I refuse a few times, you keep asking, and finally I accept the extra money, then both the host and the guest are happy, right?

But Zhao Li quickly reacted and waved his hand: "Jiang County Magistrate, if that's the case, then this cart of tea and wine will be used to replace the extra nectar."

It was not until this moment that Zhao Li came to his senses. Except for himself, dozens of people in the caravan were still tied up.

"Sir, can you untie us brothers first?" Zhao Li asked quickly.

Jiang Yuan pressed the button without even turning his head. His attention was completely attracted by the truck full of tea leaves.

It’s not that the tea is so good, but based on my memory, the Great Duan Dynasty was still at the stage of directly making tea cakes.

The loose tea making process hasn't even started yet.

What's more, I have more advanced tea-making techniques in my mind.

Add a little bit of Hextech and it will be a huge hit!

On the other side, the people who had just been untied from the ropes immediately started clamoring.

"Old Zhao! Are you crazy? That silver was used by us merchants to purchase goods in Penglai County, but now you have used it all to buy some bullshit nectar and wine for a hundred taels of silver a jar!" Zhang Cheng, the deputy leader of the caravan, looked at Zhao Li angrily.

One hundred taels of silver for a jar, enough for a feast of wine.

Ten thousand taels of silver, that's enough for a top star, what a waste! It's such a huge waste!

"That's right, Lao Zhao, even if you want to buy it, you won't spend so much silver. How good can this wine be to be worth one hundred taels of silver per jar!" Zhang Ding muttered as he came to the opened jar of nectar.

The strong aroma penetrated Zhang Ding's nostrils and he closed his mouth instantly. Just based on the smell, even ten-year-old wine could not compare to it!

Zhao Li did not rush to refute. He calmly poured out a bowl of wine and handed it to Zhang Cheng who shouted the loudest.

Zhang Cheng's nose twitched slightly, and he swallowed his saliva reluctantly. Then he picked up the wine bowl and took a sip carefully, and his face flushed red.

"Wow! Good wine, good wine! Really good wine!" Zhang Cheng's face changed instantly.

We are all businessmen who have traveled all over the country. We have tasted all kinds of wine and have a good idea of ​​how much it costs after just one sip.

"What kind of wine is this!" Zhang Cheng widened his eyes and gasped heavily.

"Nectar!" Zhao Li puffed out his chest, his face full of pride.

Li Hu, who was standing by, tugged at Ma Zhi's sleeve and whispered, "Did you beat these people silly?"

Ma Zhi looked at Li Hu with disdain: "Do you think I'm a fool like you who only knows how to use violence?"

Li Hu scratched his head, bewildered. "That's not right. I was the one who brought people to Tai'an County to buy this wine. It cost three catties of silver for one penny. Even dogs wouldn't drink it. Have these people never drunk alcohol before?"

"Even dogs don't drink it? What you bought is not the wine used to disinfect livestock?" Ma Zhi looked at Li Hu in shock.

This stuff is not drinkable at all. Drinking too much can be fatal.

Just as Zhang Cheng was about to drink another bowl, Jiang Yuan rushed over and said, "No, no, you can't drink anymore!"

"Why?" Zhang Cheng, who was holding the wine bowl, was stunned for a while.

"This wine is brewed with a large amount of tonics. One sip will refresh your mind, two sips will keep you from getting tired, and three sips will prolong your life. But you must not drink too much, otherwise it will harm your body." Jiang Yuan explained seriously.

Nonsense, three pounds of wine for one penny of silver was bought by Li Hu from a veterinarian. It was used as a disinfectant when treating livestock.

Can I drink more of this?

"County Magistrate Jiang has such good wine, why doesn't he sell it directly? Why does he have to let people tie us up?" Zhang Cheng asked.

Jiang Yuan scratched his head and said in a slightly stiff tone: "This, this is the latest sales method in this county, bundling sales."
