0062 Into the city

At dawn the next day, Liu Pei took 20 people and drove five large trucks loaded with goods on the road to Jinan. They did not dare to load the goods directly on the truck, but disguised the truck as a disguise.

After a while, it was installed as a vehicle for transporting grain. Moreover, 20 people's spears and 5 knives were hidden in the cargo gaps on both sides of the cart. They could be taken out by just reaching out. This way, walking on the road is not very convenient.

It's conspicuous.

After several days of trekking, everyone finally arrived at Jinan City. Liu Pei arranged for the cart to find a place to settle outside the city, leaving Qi Qitao to guard it. He took Wu Yizhou and three people to get some samples.

Jinan City.

Liu Pei has been to Jinan City several times and is quite familiar with it. He has long known which is the largest powder shop in Jinan City. The goods in Liu Pei's hands are inconspicuous in modern times, but they were suitable for the Ming Dynasty.

It's a high-end product! So Liu Pei plans to sell it in the best shops in Jinan City to raise the price of the product and make more profits.

A group of five people soon arrived at the door of a shop. This shop is called Deyuanxiang. It is the best powder shop in Jinan City. It also sells some high-end silks, satins, silk threads and other things. This shop employs ten people.

All the women specially carry various samples to the big houses in the city to sell products to the ladies and ladies who cannot go out easily. Even the top brothels in the city will send people to buy here. If Liu Pei’s products are sold in

The sales in this store basically open up the high-end market!

As soon as a few people stood firm in front of the door, only one waiter rushed out, waved to them repeatedly, and shouted: "What are you guys doing standing at the door? Go away! If you scare the madam, ladies, be careful and you will be punished.

!”

When Wu Yizhou saw the man yelling at his savior, he immediately became angry. He raised his fists and was about to hit him, but Liu Pei stopped him. Liu Pei had been used to seeing people looking down on others since he was a child, so naturally he would not

I was arguing with him. Not to mention that the clothes of my group were indeed a bit poor. Liu Pei was okay, and although the clothes of Wu Yizhou and others were clean, they were also patched.

Liu Pei could tolerate it, but that didn't mean he accepted it. He took a step forward and said with a sneer: "Man, you'd better ask the shopkeeper to come out and talk. If you have any business, talk to him.

.”

The clerk squinted his eyes and said with disdain: "How can you poor people do anything? The things in my store are very expensive. How can you poor people afford it?"

Liu Pei was a little angry. He squinted his eyes and said, "We are not here to buy anything. We have something to sell to your store."

The guy laughed loudly after hearing this and said, "What good can a bunch of country bumpkins do? Are they here to sell mud?"

Liu Pei got angry at what he said. He wanted to talk nicely to do some business, but he was humiliated for no reason. He raised his foot and kicked the clerk in the thigh. The clerk screamed and staggered back, but he happened to hit him.

It hit a person coming out of the store. The clerk saw the person clearly before he could stand still, and shouted loudly: "Shopkeeper, someone is here to cause trouble!"

The man supported the waiter, looked at Liu Pei and his group, and said, "What happened? Why are you disturbing me in front of my store?"

Liu Pei raised his eyes and saw that this man was of medium height and slightly fat. He was wearing a blue cloth trousers and a square scarf on his head. His face had been rounded by the fat, and he was paired with a pair of

Her naturally narrow eyes look a bit funny. There is always a smile on her lips.

Liu Pei heard that the waiter said that this person was from the shopkeeper, so he raised his hands and said: "Have you met the shopkeeper? May I ask the shopkeeper's surname?"

When the shopkeeper came out, he had already seen Liu Pei and several others. Looking at their clothes, he knew that they were ordinary farmers, so he didn't pay attention to them. Unexpectedly, the first words he spoke were somewhat elegant! The shopkeeper couldn't help but take a high look,

He said: "I am the shopkeeper here. My surname is Hua. Who are you?"

Liu Pei once again raised his hand and said: "I have met the shopkeeper. My surname is Liu, and the only word is "pei". I brought a few brothers to your store today because I want to discuss some business with your store. I don't want to see this dog before I enter the store.

Seeing that he was inferior, the man not only blocked us, but also said evil words! I was so angry that I kicked him! Don't worry, we are definitely not here to cause trouble."

Shopkeeper Hua was even more surprised when he heard this! Normally, a poor man like this couldn't even speak clearly when he saw him, and would only nod and bow obediently. However, although the man in front of him was dressed in ordinary clothes, he was clean. And he was very impressive and unlike him.

It's soil

For food?

Shopkeeper Hua was looking at Liu Pei. The waiter was afraid of being scolded by the shopkeeper, so he jumped in and said, "Shopkeeper, don't listen to the nonsense of these poor men! What good things can they have? They even said they would sell it to our store.

.Where do we lack things for a few poor people in our store?"

The flower shopkeeper waved his hand unhappily and signaled the clerk not to talk too much. Then he said: "I heard from the clerk that you want to sell me something. I wonder what you plan to sell me?"

Liu Pei smiled slightly and said: "Shopkeeper, why don't we discuss business in front of the store?"

Shopkeeper Hua took a deep look at Liu Pei and said, "You guys, come with me." After that, he led Liu Pei and others to the second hall. Shopkeeper Hua sat down by himself, but did not invite Liu Pei to sit down.

. said: "Can we talk now?"

Liu Pei guessed what Shopkeeper Hua was thinking. If he couldn't come up with something good, he might be sent to the county government to make boards! But Liu Pei was not in a hurry, he knew that his products were absolutely competitive!

Liu Pei signaled Wu Yizhou to put the bag on his shoulder and open it on the table, and said: "Shopkeeper Hua, the goods I brought today are Western goods. I will explain them to you in detail."

Shopkeeper Hua perked up when she heard that they were Western goods. During the Ming Dynasty, the commercial exchanges between China and Europe were already quite huge. Many people were already accustomed to seeing some overseas goods, so Shopkeeper Hua was not surprised.

At this time, the atmosphere of the Ming Dynasty was quite open. They were confident that their country was the center of the world and their culture was the most advanced. Therefore, the Ming Dynasty did not reject foreign things. There was quite a bit of the "Fairy Play" spirit mentioned by Mr. Lu Xun!

The scholar-bureaucrats also joined Christianity and were not ostracized by the scholars or the court. This was different from the "we, the Qing Dynasty" who were always worried about rebellion, so they tried their best to suppress the people's wisdom!

Although Shopkeeper Hua saw that after opening the baggage, there were Chinese porcelain bottles and wooden boxes inside, but he still waited patiently for Liu Pei to slowly explain to him. Liu Pei opened a wooden box to show Shopkeeper Flower the soap and said:
Chapter completed!
