Nongmen's elder sister-in-law is the richest in the world

Chapter 654 The price of strawberries and watermelons scare everyone away
Having said that, we have come to the point, Eunuch Fu couldn't help swallowing his saliva to hold back the excitement in his heart and continued:

"The most important thing is that the health-preserving effect of this watermelon is more significant than that of the previous peach. Liu Shou and the others also said that it contains more beneficial ingredients than peaches. This watermelon has health and longevity benefits, beauty and beauty than the previous peach. And the function of treating minor illnesses and pains.

However, the most prominent effect of this watermelon is that it is on the road of beauty, according to Mo Shizi. It is particularly rich in substances that can be eaten to make you younger, and it is also particularly off-flavored.

Your Majesty, the old slave sees that you have gotten angry these two days, so it is just right to eat this.

The most important thing is that the watermelons and strawberries are the first crop of this year. Mo Shizi's people said that if your Majesty wants them, they can continue to give them to you. Your Majesty, you can continue to do so in the future.

The remaining ones are called strawberries..."

Next, the three favorite concubines of Emperor Xuanping's harem, Defei, Concubine Xian and Concubine Shu, as well as several favored families in the capital, all received strawberries and watermelons as rewards from Emperor Xuanping.

As for Duke Zhongguo’s mansion, he directly received a hundred taels of gold as a reward from Emperor Xuanping, and also asked Mr. Fu to personally spread the word that Song Shiyuan should do a good job in this fruit business. If this business can really be done, then Emperor Xuanping will often patronize him. Business.

After receiving these news, all the big families in the capital were sour!

Because Emperor Xuanping is a well-known stingy emperor, in the past, these ministers were rewarded with decorations that could not be bought and sold, or food in the palace. Going too far and directly rewarding them with some melons and fruits, but giving them real gold to the Zhongguo Gongfu, this is simply stingy and eccentric.

However, it is undeniable that the concubine and family who received the rewards of strawberries and watermelons were still very excited, because Emperor Xuanping played the stingy one to the extreme, and usually rewarded them with cheap decorations and meals. not much.

Therefore, they couldn't help being very excited when they received the reward from Emperor Xuanping this year, because it showed that they were honored and favored by Emperor Xuanping!

Of course, the premise of all this is that they don’t want to compare themselves with the Duke Zhongguo’s mansion, but thinking that the emperor’s favor today in the Duke Zhongguo’s mansion was obtained in exchange for the lives of the late Zhongguogong and his wife, they feel a lot more balanced in their hearts. It is inevitable that he is a little jealous that Mo Shiyuan was born with a golden spoon in his mouth.

And when they really ate the strawberries and watermelon sent by Emperor Xuanping, the last dissatisfaction of these people dissipated, because these two novel fruits were really delicious.

Especially when they heard the news from the palace that strawberries and watermelons had such miraculous effects, their eyes lit up.

You must know that the rich and powerful people are always afraid of death, because they have to save their lives to enjoy life. They didn't know that strawberry and watermelon, two fruits, have the effect of prolonging life. These people couldn't help but eagerly inquire about the origin of strawberry and watermelon. .

Especially the concubines in the harem, as well as the female relatives of the major families heard that these two fruits have the effect of beautifying the skin and making people younger, so they couldn't help asking how to get strawberries and watermelons.

After everyone inquired, they soon found out that the strawberries and watermelons were given to Emperor Xuanping by Mo Shiyuan, and they would like to buy and sell these two fruits in the future, and Emperor Xuanping even sent a word to let him do this business well. , he will help in the future!
Not hearing the news, everyone couldn't help feeling both happy and regretful. The happy thing is that Mo Shiyuan will continue to do the strawberry and watermelon business in the future, which means they can still eat such delicious and healthy fruits. What's a pity is that This business is owned by the little overlord Mo Shiyuan, and even supported by the No. 1 Emperor Xuanping of the Yamato Dynasty, they dare not take part in this business.

But it was just two kinds of fruit business, these people couldn't help but quickly looked away, and let Mo Shiyuan earn money as a way to show Emperor Xuanping's face, anyway, they are not short of this money.

However, those who think that they are not short of this little money, after knowing the huge amount of money earned by these two small fruits, can't help but feel a little hot on their faces. Of course, these are all for later.

That's how Shen Jianwan's "big troop" of strawberries and watermelons hadn't arrived in the capital, these two fruits became popular in the capital ahead of time, and all of this was expected by Shen Jianwan!
Besides, Emperor Xuanping listened to Eunuch Fu's introduction of peaches, strawberries and watermelons, and of course he also read Song Shiyuan's letter later.

Sure enough, seeing the ignorant Song Shiyuan writing so many words for himself, Emperor Xuanping couldn't help being moved, and was even more attracted by the other party's vernacular and what he said.

For Song Shiyuan's straight-talking style of writing, Emperor Xuanping was worthy of being an emperor and immediately thought of the benefits, but this matter still needs to be discussed in the long run.

In addition, Emperor Xuanping was also interested in Song Shiyuan's business of strawberries and watermelons and the design drawings of the new-style huts he sent up.

Emperor Buxuanping was immediately moved when he saw Song Shiyuan's description of this new-style hut called a toilet, and then asked the Minister of the Ministry of Industry to show him the blueprint.

After reading it, Pei Donglai, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, actually shouted a few times in front of the palace, and then said that he would take it home and make a toilet at home, and report to Emperor Xuanping when it was really practical.

After Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry left, Emperor Xuanping rewarded the three major concubines in the harem and several aristocratic families in the capital as benefits for the strawberries and watermelons that would still be available in the future.

Well, he can show his great grace without spending a single penny and warm up Song Shiyuan's strawberry and watermelon business. Emperor Xuanping felt that his move could kill two birds with one stone.

Sure enough, when Shen Jianwan's "big troop" of strawberries and watermelons arrived in the capital, the shop of Duke Zhongguo's mansion had just stocked these two fruits, and many customers came to buy them before they had time to let the wind go to the shop!
Yes, since knowing that Duke Zhong’s mansion is going to sell strawberries and watermelons, some aristocratic families, especially the concubines in the harem, have been paying attention to when their strawberries and watermelons will arrive every day, so the strawberries and watermelons have just arrived in the shop. The people sent by these people immediately went forward to buy it.

And when they found out that a strawberry bigger than a fist cost [-] renminbi each, and strawberries as big as two fists even sold for [-] renminbi each, the servants who came to sell it to the master were shocked.

Especially when I heard that the cheapest watermelons cost one tael a catty, and the more expensive watermelons became, those watermelons over fifty catties sold for three taels a catty. He made an idea for his master and sold it.
