Datang: My apprentice is Li Chengqian

Chapter 159 Return

Although the opening of the Crystal Palace was very low-key, there was no advertisement in the "Datang Daily".

However, with its unique product advantages, it actually attracted the attention of many people in just half a day.

There are better people like Miss Qiqi who went in with curiosity and finally reluctantly bought it.

Regardless of the first year of Zhenguan, the people of Tang Dynasty were still living in dire straits, but Chang'an City actually did not lack rich people at all.

Just like the last years of the Ming Dynasty, although countless people did not have the opportunity to fill their stomachs, there were even many tragedies in the world where they changed their sons to eat.

But in the capital, there are as many rich people as deadly.

Otherwise, when Li Zicheng captured the city of Beijing, he would not have collected nearly [-] million taels of silver so easily.

"Qin Langjun, my aunt's mirror is even reluctant to be used. Otherwise, after seeing it, so many people in the palace will definitely want to see if they can get a crystal mirror as well."

Outside the gate of the Crystal Palace, Qin Xiedao and Li Chengqian stood there watching the crowds coming and going, wanting to directly confirm the business situation here.

"It doesn't matter, the empress has not helped promote it yet, the crystal mirror already looks like it's going to be popular.

Let the "Datang Daily" publish a news about the hot sale of crystal mirrors, the effect is not necessarily worse than the advertisement.

The advertising pages of these few days have been bought by Gaoji Bronze Mirror Shop, so we don't have to compete with him. "

Qin Xiedao originally wanted to take the opportunity of giving the mirror to Empress Changsun, so that she could become a propagandist for his own mirror.

Unexpectedly, Empress Changsun cherished this gift from her son because she loved it so much.

This made Qin Xiedao a little depressed.

Fortunately, judging from today's opening situation, even if there is no delivery from Empress Zhangsun, the sales of crystal mirrors are still very good.

It is said to be one hundred guan, but in fact the actual processing cost of the glass workshop is at most one or two guan.

This is because the output of the glass workshop is not large, and the craftsmen are not familiar enough with their craftsmanship.

Otherwise, it is very possible to directly drop to a few hundred coins.

"A mirror costs a hundred guan, and if you can sell [-] mirrors, then the money problem for the construction of the new palace will be alleviated immediately.

Later, I will talk to my mother again, and ask her to help sell crystal mirrors when the ladies gather. "

I have to say that Li Chengqian is still very attractive now.

Before his legs were lame, he had a pretty good reputation.

Even a picky person like Wei Zheng would say "quite smart".

"Your request is too low, and you actually think that the sales volume of crystal mirrors is only [-].

Such a good thing, if it doesn't sell for tens of thousands of noodles, how can it be worthy of such a great discovery. "

Qin Xiedao was relying on the glass mirror to support the infrastructure costs of the new palace and [-] mu of land.

100 million yuan is obviously not enough to spend.

"Ten thousand mirrors is not a lot. The entire Chang'an city, even the families of noble and high-ranking officials have all bought such crystal mirrors. It is estimated that only a few thousand mirrors can be sold.

[-] noodles, I have already estimated it, and I have counted the sales volume of the merchants transporting it to other places. "

Li Chengqian obviously didn't think that just relying on a crystal mirror could make millions of dollars.

How could there be so many rich people in Datang?

"This crystal mirror can not only be sold in various states and counties of the Tang Dynasty, but also can be brought back and sold by envoys from foreign countries.

Such a valuable item is perfect for gift giving. "

Speaking of this, Qin Xiedao even thought about the title of the report in "Datang Daily".

"If you don't give gifts during the holidays this year, give them a crystal mirror."

……

"My lady, if there is no quality problem with the items sold in this store, they will not be changed or returned.

Is there something wrong with this bronze mirror? "

In the Gaoji Bronze Mirror Shop, Gao Lei stared at Ruhua nervously.

The woman in front of him, with a thick body, gave him a lot of pressure.

The most important thing is that under her leadership, several people have already lined up behind her, ready to return the goods.

"Of course there is a problem! Your bronze mirrors are not as clear as the crystal mirrors sold in the Crystal Palace opposite, but the price is even more expensive than others.

Even the cheapest bronze mirror is sold for a hundred guan. If you sell things like this, won't your conscience hurt?

The bronze mirror we just bought is still in your shop, and the delivery hasn't started yet, so why can't we return it? "

Ruhua obviously doesn't know that Gaoji Bronze Mirror Shop is owned by Gao Shilian's family.

Otherwise, it is estimated that her tone of voice would not be so aggressive at this time.

In fact, the shops in that part of the West Market will not deliberately advertise that they are the property of a noble family.

After all, for these aristocratic nobles, running a shop is not something worth writing about.

"Crystal mirror? How can a crystal be made into a mirror? Even if it is the best crystal, which is the size of a fist, if you make it into a mirror, the quality cannot be better than our bronze mirror."

Gao Lei, as a senior clerk in the bronze mirror shop, obviously has a good understanding of the situation of the mirror industry in Datang.

"Hehe, if you can't make it, it doesn't mean that others can't make it either.

Don't talk about anything useless, just get your money back. "

Following Ruhua's words, several other people who bought the bronze mirror also shouted for a return.

This made the people who were wandering around the shop, planning to buy a bronze mirror, immediately change their minds.

This scene made Gao Lei very angry.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! In the entire Tang Dynasty, there is no workshop that uses crystals to make mirrors. This is simply against common sense."

Seeing that Gao Lei was always talking about this, Ru Hua immediately opened the sandalwood box in her bosom, and a crystal mirror immediately appeared in front of everyone.

Gao Lei just poked his head over to take a look, and his face immediately changed drastically.

How could this be?
How could there be such a clear mirror?

Where did this thing come from?
At this time, Gao Peng, who was resting in the backyard, also came out when he heard the movement from the shop.

However, what greeted him was a mirror whose quality was significantly higher than his own bronze mirror.

"This is the crystal mirror sold across the street. Feel your conscience. Is the quality of this mirror better than your copper mirror? Will you return it?"

Ruhua didn't care what Gao Lei's mood was, and directly forced him to refund the money.

"Refund!"

"Refund!"

Other customers who followed suit raised their arms and kept shouting "money back".

This scene caused Gao Peng's blood pressure to rise sharply, and he almost fainted in the shop.
