Chapter 766 The Xenophobic Qingning Mansion
In the early summer of this year, Qingning Mansion in Fushan County suddenly became lively.
Mu Fengtang is one of them. He is a junior martial artist in his early twenties. He comes from Dali County, Tianfeng County. He originally visited Lening Mansion in Fushan County, but now he has arrived in Qingning Mansion with four people.
The Mu family in Dali County is a member of the aristocratic family alliance. Mu Fengtang is a descendant of Changzhi. However, the Mu family's current innate talent is from the third branch. Changzhi's lineage had more resources before, but now they have to. So much.
To say that he was promoted to a martial arts master at the age of eighteen, he is quite a genius even in the Mu family. However, with the decrease of Changzhi's resources, he is now stuck as a junior martial artist and has not advanced in two years.
This kind of cultivation speed cannot keep up with Gazi, but Gazi's elixirs are supplied by Feng Jun. More importantly, there is a spirit gathering array in Luohua Manor. Even though it is in the End of Dharma Plane, the concentration of spiritual energy in a small area can also supply two Intermediate level of Qi refining.
As soon as he turned twenty, Mu Fengtang was kicked out of his family. As usual, he had to go through the world to prove that he was worthy of support.
He received three hundred taels of gold supported by his family, of which two hundred taels came from the public school and one hundred taels was raised by his mother.
Accompanying him were a fifty-year-old servant, a guard in his early thirties, a boy and a maid.
It has to be said that a big family is a big family. Even a kid who was kicked out of his family to start a business can start with only three hundred taels of gold and four people to help him. His starting point is much higher than that of those kids from a humble family who started from scratch. .
In the blink of an eye, Mu Fengtang had been living in the world for almost a year. His principal of three hundred taels of gold had once increased to nearly a thousand taels. He felt that he was a genius in business. Those living habits he had developed since childhood made him He couldn't help but spend a lot of money.
As a result, he was severely cheated. A batch of goods was dropped and he suffered a big loss.
The Mu family's disciples were not allowed to take the initiative to expose their identity due to their experience in the world. Mu Fengtang was furious, so with guards, the two of them found the one who had tricked him.
The other side was also prepared, and the two sides fought fiercely. As a result, he was slightly injured, the guard was seriously injured, and three people were killed by the two of them.
Then the official arrived and almost captured the two of them. Thanks to the Mu family's clan rule, "you must not take the initiative to reveal your identity", rather than absolutely not revealing your identity.
The matter was settled. He recovered most of the goods that the other party had swapped, but he still had to deal with the officials. He didn't have to pay for the funeral expenses, but he still had to heal his injuries, right?
After that, he encountered similar setbacks twice, both times he was tricked without warning. Once he was tricked by a certain yamen. After the other party knew his identity, he apologized, but refused to refund the money. .
Seeing that it had been a year since he came out, Mu Fengtang had less than 250 taels of gold left with him when he came out. He felt that the world was too dangerous, so he just traveled around and played in the mountains and rivers. As for making money, Things, that is, "just let it happen".
This time, he was playing in Lening Mansion and suddenly discovered that something called "perfume" appeared in Tiantong Merchant Alliance.
In fact, similar things have always been sold in Tiantong Merchant Alliance. Rouge, gouache and the like are all cosmetics used by women. Among them, perfume and the like are similar to this "perfume".
But perfume is very cheap. For the cheapest perfume, one tael of gold can buy forty bottles, which is two bottles of five silver dollars.
However, in the Tiantong Merchant Alliance's business, the base currency is gold, and the higher level is spiritual stones, and silver dollars are not used at all.
What Mu Fengtang values is not the fragrance of perfume, but the insect-repelling effect of cheap perfume.
Tianfeng County is located in the hot south. There are many mosquitoes every summer, many of which are poisonous. Local families use incense such as mugwort and mothballs, but these things have a strong smell and are not suitable for Loved by everyone.
Something like this happened in the Mu family's wine cellar. They put mothballs in to prevent insects. As a result, the smell of mothballs leaked into the wine - after taking a sip of decades-old wine, the nose was filled with mothballs. How can this make people feel uncomfortable?
But if you switch to perfume, it will definitely be different. Even the smell of perfume can add to the power of wine. At most, it will add a little more aroma. Although it is more than the mellow aroma of wine, it is within everyone's acceptance range.
There are also some people who are naturally repelled by the smell of mugwort or mothballs, and their bodies will have some bad reactions - in the earth world, there is a proper term called "allergy".
It was still early summer in Qingning Prefecture, but mosquitoes were already rampant in Tianfeng County.
Mu Fengtang instinctively realized that this was really good stuff, especially the cheapest perfume, called "toilet water", which had a huge market.
Although he comes from a noble family, there are different types of noble families, right? The Mu family can have the rule of "children traveling in the world of mortals", which means that the ancestors paid great attention to being down-to-earth.
Of course, ancestors are ancestors. After a few generations, there will be fewer and fewer children who are willing to be down-to-earth. However, Mu Fengtang is another exception. He could have accepted a large amount of resources, but now he has to compete through traveling in the world, and his heart has been blocked. One breath.
After traveling in the mortal world for so long, I have made money and suffered losses. I have seen and heard too much.
He has a precise positioning on the market for toilet water: mid-to-high-end people.
People who are too poor are even reluctant to use mothballs and mugwort. To deal with mosquitoes, they just have to do it manually.
Take a family as an example. Deng Yifu, the father of the Deng brothers, after the escort leader Deng retired from the escort agency, he could earn twenty or thirty silver dollars a month. A bottle of toilet water would cost two and a half silver dollars, which would last at least a month or two. , if you save a little, it won’t be a problem if you use it for five or six months.
If it is left to evaporate freely in the wine cellar, it may last for a year.
For such a family, it is absolutely no problem to buy a bottle of toilet water.
Although Head Guard Deng is considered a high-paid person, he is really nothing in Xiyin City. One key point restrains him to death - the Deng family is a small family.
Compared to Deng Yifu, a family like the Higashimeda family is a giant. How can a bottle of toilet water be enough?
Even if you don’t use a hundred bottles a month, you should always have dozens of bottles.
This is what Mu Fengtang calculated. It doesn't take much for a county to have a powerful person like the Higashikata family. The sales volume of toilet water in this county can easily exceed 100 in a month - after all, there are other wealthy families.
There are more than a hundred counties in Tianfeng County, plus more than a dozen big cities. Selling 20,000 bottles of perfume a month is not a problem.
In other words, all the more than two hundred taels of gold he had on him were used to purchase toilet water, which was only eight or nine thousand bottles, which was only enough for Tian Feng County for half a month.
This deal...can definitely be done!
After reacting, he came to Qingning Mansion with his entourage without saying a word, trying to find out the source of the goods.
If we leave it to ordinary people, I heard that the Tiantong Merchant Alliance is doing this business, so I guess no one would have the guts to grab the business.
But Mu Fengtang is a child of the Family Alliance, and he knows a lot more about the Tiantong Merchant Alliance than the average person. He knows that the main service targets of the Merchant Alliance are not people in the mortal world at all. People gather gold to buy treasures in the mortal world.
Therefore, for many products, Tiantong Merchant Alliance allows others to compete, and the Merchant Alliance has limited manpower in the secular world, so many products have to rely on people in the mortal world to help sell them.
For example, in the Eastern branch where Huangfu Wuxia is located, there are only about ten people in the branch - if you don't count the disciples brought by President Huangfu from his own family.
So how many people can there be in the eight counties under the Eastern Chapter? There are only two or three people in each county, and they are simply too busy.
Therefore, although he was stealing food from the Tiantong Merchant Alliance, Mu Fengtang believed that the Merchant Alliance would not react in any way, and this was the territory of the Eastern Branch, while Tianfeng County was the responsibility of the Southern Branch.
After arriving in Xiyin City, he asked around where the toilet water was sold in large quantities.
But it is very regrettable that no one told him where they sell it in large quantities. They only said that we sell it here for three silver dollars a bottle.
He inquired for two whole days and deeply realized the city's malice toward outsiders.
The same out-of-towner even came to him and said, "I know where this is sold, but you have to tell me how much you plan to buy first."
This was not Mu Fengtang's first day in the world. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net didn't say how much he wanted to buy at all. He directly told the other party, tell me your address, and I will give you ten silver dollars.
The outsider refused to agree, so it was better now that Mu Fengtang would be staring at him.
The attitude is obviously - if you have the guts, don't go to Yin City, otherwise you will look good.
Although the Mu family is a member of the Family Alliance, it is not easy for them to kill people in broad daylight in the city.
The outsider was so scared, but this is a digression. Two days later, Mu Fengtang finally gave up such inquiries and sent a greeting card to the famous Deng Yifu in Xiyin City. .
He heard that this person was only a middle-level martial artist. He had been an escort before and later quit the escort agency.
What's interesting is that when this man was a bodyguard, many people didn't agree with him. On the contrary, after quitting, no one in the entire city dared to offend him. It was said that this man had hooked up with a big shot.
Mu Fengtang did not write his real name in his invitation, but used the name of "Mu Tang, a junior in martial arts."
However, he can write "backward" instead of "junior", which shows his identity as a martial artist.
It was a pity that Menzi went in once, and when he came out, there was a man who looked like a butler and a boy behind him.
The boy was holding a tray in his hand. The tray contained two envelopes of silver coins, which was twenty yuan.
The butler said with a smile that the old man was in poor health recently and had not seen any outsiders. He offered twenty silver dollars to enhance your well-being.
Yes, Mu Fengtang realized right away that he was being misunderstood.
The Mu family also does things like rescue emergencies in the rivers and lakes, and the cost is at least fifty silver dollars.
But we need to figure out what kind of beings are those who dare to seek help from the Mujia Jianghu.
