Chapter 043: The Patriarch of the Zhen Family

After listening to Zhen Gui's words, Liu An probably had an idea in his mind.

The price of pigs in Zhongshan County is higher than that in Zhuo County, so the Zhang family can sell it at a higher price than those in Zhuo County.

After subtracting the ten pounds the pig lost on the road, Liu An gave his ideal price.

"In that case, three thousand heads, can Shopkeeper Zhen take a look?"

Zhen Gui stroked his beard and thought for a moment, then nodded and said: "Yes!"

"I have twenty pigs larger than this elsewhere. I wonder if the shopkeeper is interested?"

"Oh? Is there a bigger one?" Zhen Gui was a little moved, but did not agree directly, "The transaction amount here is already quite large. If there are another twenty, I will need to discuss it with the owner of the family."

When Liu An heard what Shopkeeper Zhen said, his heart moved. He bowed and saluted and said sincerely: "I still have some rare things. I want to interview the person in charge of the Zhen family. I hope Shopkeeper Zhen can pass the news."

"I will tell you this on my behalf, but I can't guarantee whether the head of the family will see you or not."

"Thank you so much, Shopkeeper Zhen."

Afterwards, Zhen Gui looked at all the pigs one by one and found nothing wrong with them, so he called for people to transport all the pigs to the backyard.

Liu An followed the shopkeeper into the back hall to get money, fifteen pigs, each worth 3,000 yuan, a total of 45,000 yuan. After Liu An put the money away, he left with Liu Bei and others.

After finding a stable near the city gate, Liu An and the others handed the carriage to the boy at the door and entered the lobby.

Mangzhi was a government-run post station, similar to the inns of later generations.

Each of the five people asked for a guest room, and Liu An went to take a bath first.

Afterwards, the five of them went to the lobby to have dinner together and then went to bed early.

After running around for four days, everyone was very tired, and it was already late, so we had to wait until tomorrow.

After a good night's rest, Liu An slept until he woke up naturally the next day.

Liu Bei and others also knew that Liu An was tired, so although they got up early, they did not wake Liu An up.

After sleeping until midnight, Liu An got up and washed up comfortably. After eating, Liu An called the four of them to his room to arrange the next action.

"There are two things to do next. First, buy forty clay pots the size of teacups. Second, buy a simple house in the city. Xuande, I will give you 20,000 yuan, and you take Chen Zhao

We are going to buy a house. The yard must be bigger. I will take Wei Chuan and Guo Hai to buy clay pots. After finishing, we will gather here."

Wei Chuan and Guo Hai are the names of the other two people on Liu An's trip. After using the death card, the force value is above 35.

In Liu An's imagination, transactions with the Zhen family will inevitably become more frequent in the future, and it will be much more convenient to purchase a place to stay.

And if you want to extract twenty pigs, a private manor that is secluded enough is also essential.

After giving Liu Bei two gold cakes, the five of them split up.

Liu An and the other three came to a utensil shop and quickly picked out a small clay pot of suitable size and asked the shopkeeper for forty.

This clay pot comes with its own lid, and each costs twenty-five cents, which is exactly one thousand cents.

In order to look more upscale, Liu An also bought six exquisite wooden boxes. Each wooden box can hold ten clay pots, which is very convenient to carry.

After buying the things, Liu An returned to the stable, extracted Lao Gan Ma, divided each bottle into two jars and put them into clay jars. Then he washed Lao Gan Ma's glass bottles and dried them, and separated the clay jars and glass bottles.

Packed into six wooden boxes.

Fortunately, none of the items currently provided by the system have any words written on them, and the bottle containing Lao Gan Ma is also a smooth and transparent jar. Otherwise, if such a beautiful 'glazed bottle' is labeled with the words Lao Gan Ma, then it would be

Too cheap.

Moreover, it is a modern Chinese character, which is not only strange, but also arouses suspicion.

After lunch, Liu Bei has not come back yet.

Liu An went to Zhen's butcher shop and asked what the result was.

Zhen Gui said that the head of the Zhen family is willing to meet Liu An, and then all transactions will be discussed directly with the head of the Zhen family.

The two agreed to meet at Liu An's stable in the evening, and Liu An went back to wait.

Liu Bei didn't come back until Shenshi.

He bought a house worth 21,000 yuan. Since Liu Bei only had 20,000 yuan, he spent a lot of time talking about it and tried to explain it to him, but he had no choice but to give him a thousand yuan cheaper.

After Liu An heard about it, he praised Liu Bei and then led Liu Bei to the new residence.

The new house is indeed a yard worth 21,000 yuan. From the appearance alone, it is much better than the yard in Zhuoxian County. At least the walls are clean and the doors are in good condition.

Although strictly speaking, it still belongs to the level of ordinary houses. It is neither a sophisticated house nor a luxury house.

But it was enough for Liu An to rest his feet.

Thinking of this, Liu An remembered that he and his mother still lived in a mud house without a fire wall. Although the weather was getting warmer and the demand for fire walls was not so high, he still had to build the manor quickly.

At that time, I will take my mother over and let her who has worked hard for half her life enjoy the blessings.

Opening the door, Liu An walked into the courtyard.

Presumably, Liu Bei also understood Liu An's intentions and deliberately found a house with a larger yard. The yard was not full of hay like the house in Zhuoxian County. It was quite clean. Someone might have been taking care of it not long ago.

The courtyard is much larger than the one Liu An lived in Zhuoxian, and there are several more houses.

There are three main rooms in the north, two bedrooms, a living room in the middle, a wing room on the east and west sides, and a warehouse and a kitchen near the south wall, which also contain a lot of furniture.

Liu An entered the living room and took a look. There was not much dust accumulated on the furniture. Although it was a bit old, it was still clean.

After exiting the house, Liu An closed the door, stood in the yard and extracted the twenty pigs.

It was almost evening. After extracting the pigs, Liu An and others returned to the stables.

Liu An asked for a separate guest room and had the wine and food prepared to warm up. He waited until the head of the Zhen family arrived to serve the wine and food.

As night approached, as soon as the dishes were ready, Zhen Gui came to the stable with a man in gorgeous clothes.

Liu An and others had been waiting in the hall for a long time. When they saw Zhen Gui arriving, they hurriedly got up to greet him.

Zhen Gui introduced the man to Liu An, "This is the master of my family, Zhen Yi."

"Liu An, courtesy name Changsheng, has met Zhen Jun." Liu An said to Zhen Yi's luggage.

Zhen Yi looks to be in her mid-twenties, and she is dressed in luxurious clothes, which adds a bit of nobility to the already elegant Zhen Yi.

While Liu An was speaking, he also opened Zhen Yi's property panel to view.

Zhen Yi, courtesy name Zixin.

Force:24

Intelligence:70

Command:27

Politics:74

Charm:66

Phase: 45

Zhen Yi bowed his hands to Liu An and said: "I am Zhen Yi, courtesy name Zixin. I see that you are not very old. I don't expect you to be able to do such a big business. You are really a young talent!"

Before this, Zhen Yi had ordered people to investigate Liu An's details. Who was Liu An's last name, how old he was, where he lived, and what his background was. Zhen Yi knew everything.

It is well known that he is the grandson of Qianxinghou after Prince Jing of Zhongshan, and that he gathered nearly 300 victims and was protected by the magistrate of Zhuoxian County.

The Zhen family's business is spread all over the world, and there are people from the Zhen family in every state and county. Even though the speed of information dissemination in this era is difficult, it is not difficult for the Zhen family to investigate a person.

If not, the head of the Zhen family, a powerful businessman in the world, would not agree to meet Liu An, a young man who has not yet reached the crown.

"Zhen Jun is so complimentary." Liu An said modestly, and then invited Zhen Yi into the private room. The two of them stood on both sides, and the rest of the people stood behind them.
