Chapter 880: Complaint?
Chapter 880 Complain to the Royal?
"I don't care about that. The tribute is not something that ordinary people can eat. It is a great blessing for those people to have a look. This is the foot of the emperor. If the officials dare to arrest me, then I will go to the imperial court. "
"Sue the imperial court? I heard my master say that the emperor wants to eat lychees now, and he also needs to buy them. You order ten taels, twenty-two pounds, and the first person who wants to arrest you is the emperor!"
"Haha, that is, some money can be earned, and some money cannot be earned. Young people, you should use your brains, or you will be wronged if you risk your life, hahaha..."
“…”
Murong Lingran and Murong Zong shook their heads helplessly while listening to their discussions at the counter.
Fortunately, she has limited purchases. If there is ice, although lychees can be stored for several days, the taste will also change.
If the middlemen make the difference and affect Zhi Ye Zhai's reputation, then she will be in trouble.
A few days ago, she heard that someone bought dozens of catties of strawberries from her and sold them in another street, but the ones she picked and sold were all ripe and they didn't last long, and that person was greedy again. It was several times higher than what she sold, and it was half a tael and a pound for one sale.
But the whole capital knew the price of her strawberries here, and they would rather wait an extra day and come early in the morning rather than spend the wrong money on that person.
The man had no choice, and because of improper placement, after a night, many strawberries were broken.
As soon as he was in a hurry, he saw that the strawberry was about to fall into his hands, and the price began to drop the next day.
But the selling appearance is gone. Naturally, it cannot be sold at a high price, so we can only keep reducing the price. No one buys it for ten cents. In the end, all of them are sold for five cents per pound.
Because some of them have changed their taste, some people who bought it and found it unpalatable even went to Zhiye Zhai to ask for an explanation. After knowing the ins and outs, the shopkeeper Tong gave them two fresh strawberries and explained it well to them, but those people They didn't listen and wanted to extort money from them. They didn't run away until the shopkeeper Tong reported the officer.
Have been on sale for half an hour, Zhiye Zhai's business has been extremely hot, and the number of people in line has not been less, and there is a trend of more and more.
Murong Lingran also expected this kind of scene, so he arranged for the Kong brothers to guard at the door in advance.
As long as the number of people in the shop reaches a certain number, they will not let people in for the time being, come out a batch, put a batch in, or else her shelves will definitely be crowded.
Because of the limited purchase, it will take some time, but the lychees delivered to Zhiye Zhai today were all sold out before noon.
Although some people didn't buy it, after hearing from the shopkeeper that there are lychees for sale every day recently, he just complained and didn't say anything.
And most of the people are servants of the nobles and nobles. Before coming, they were told by the master of the family. When it is not a last resort, don't cause trouble in Zhiye Zhai, and they will not dare to say anything.
Today, most of the people are going for lychees, but there are still a lot of strawberries left. Those who haven’t bought lychees all start to buy strawberries and go back for delivery.
Murong Lingran saw that the flow of people was slowly decreasing, so she asked her elder brother to stay. She went out to buy some meat and came back, and planned to cook some delicious food herself to treat everyone well.
As soon as she went out, she felt that something was wrong, and it always felt like a lot of people were staring at her.
