Chapter 202 Tossing in vain?

In Chang'an City, there are many people watching the Qin family's movements.

Therefore, although the Qin family's actions were not exposed to everyone's vision, there were many things that were destined to be unable to hide.

It was like Ma Youcai who brought dozens of carriages in one go, all filled with tea bricks, and was going to Liangzhou for sale.

This news had already reached the ears of many people when Ma Youcai left Chang'an City.

"Langjun, the last batch of tea bricks in our mansion have been sold to the Qin family. Although I still lost a little money, I still didn't owe it this year after I combined it with the money I earned before this year."

Wang Zhongqi breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that her pressure was finally reduced.

Although we will continue to face new problems next year, the worst result is that the Wang family’s tea garden will only sell fresh tea to the Qin family in the future, so that we don’t have to worry about losing money.

"I heard that the Qin family wanted to transport tea bricks to Liangzhou. Do they want to transport them to the Western Regions like silk for sale, or to sell them to the Hu people on the grassland?"

Liangzhou has completely declined in later generations.

But in this era, he was definitely a prefecture with a number of great prefectures in the Tang Dynasty.

Located at a critical juncture of the Silk Road, Liangzhou has always been the top ten prefectures in the Central Plains dynasty since the Han Dynasty.

Wang Kun naturally knew much about such a prefecture.

Just like in later generations, most people still have an intuitive impression of where Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou are.

Unlike some seventh- and eighth-tier cities, you haven't even heard of them.

"I guess they wanted to sell it to the Hu people. After all, there are many Hu tribes living around Liangzhou, whether it is Tuyuhun, Xueyantuo, or the Turks and Uighurs, which can be found nearby.

Although they had some relationship with these Hu people when purchasing wool, wool is wool and tea bricks are tea bricks. I think their ideas will definitely fail this time.

At that time, it will be difficult to earn money, not to mention earning transportation costs back.”

Obviously, Wang Zhongqi is not optimistic about the Qin family's trip to Liangzhou.

"They have collected all our shoddy tea bricks as usual, right?"

"We have collected it. Although the price is lower, we not only did not owe these tea bricks, but instead made some money.

If it were placed in previous years, those tea bricks would definitely not be sold in Chang'an City.

All of them are made with very old tea leaves, which will definitely have a bad taste and will have a noticeable bitter taste."

Speaking of tea bricks, Wang Zhongqi is still very professional.

But because of this, he felt that the Qin family was going to get into trouble this time.

"They have already collected all the things, and it's useless to regret it. Anyway, it's not the only one who does this. If they are unlucky by then, we won't blame us."

Wang Kun made an excuse for himself so that he would never have any burden in his heart.

If you have any worries, let the people from the Qin family get upset.

...

"Jun Xian, do you think I did it a bit too much this time?"

In the imperial study, Li Shimin also heard about the Qin family's convoy leaving Chang'an City and heading for Liangzhou.

"Your Majesty, you did not force Qin Langjun, he was completely voluntary."

Li Junxian naturally understood what Li Shimin said, so he quickly comforted him.

"The construction of this new palace is said to have used a lot of glass, which is very expensive.

Seeing Xiedao spending so much effort and trying all kinds of ways to raise construction funds, I am dragging him down. I think I am really embarrassed."

Li Shimin was not that sarcastic at this time.

I was still a little embarrassed about the matter of cheating Qin Xiedao.

"The construction of the new palace was replaced by the imperial court using 100,000 acres of land from Qin Langjun.

Once the new palace is built, whether it is the Supreme Emperor living there or His Majesty you living there, the open space around you will definitely become valuable.

Obviously, Qin Xiedao wanted to make money by developing the 100,000 acres of land."

If Li Junxian can understand this, Li Shimin can understand it naturally.

But he didn't think that developing 100,000 acres of land would make money to build a new palace.

At this time, Datang did not have the concept of the real estate industry.

Li Shimin couldn't figure out how Qin Xiedao could fill this gap.

However, he has one advantage. As long as it does not harm him, he will not think about things that cannot be understood.

There are so many things in the court waiting for him to deal with.

"That's right, everyone thinks so. But let alone 100,000 acres of land, 200,000 acres of land, do you have a way to earn enough money from it to build a new palace?"

Li Shimin's rhetorical question was obviously unable to continue.

Fortunately, Li Shimin didn’t really want to chat with Li Junxian, but just needed a trash can to listen to him.

...

"Girl, that Qin Dalang's mind is definitely rusted, which is very different from what ordinary people think.

Do you know? I heard that many tea workshops, although the tea bricks they made are no longer sold on the market, they are working hard to make tea bricks during this period.

All the inferior tea bricks made by these people were sold to the Qin family, and Qin Xiedao actually collected whatever they had."

Among the Yang family, Qingxia stood in front of Yang Yan speechlessly and complained about the Qin family's affairs.

"Everyone thinks that Qin Dalang suffered a great loss in this matter, but I vaguely feel that he has a way to sell these tea bricks, or even sell them at a high price, and make a lot of money."

Although Yang Yan rarely goes out during this period, she read every newspaper sold in Chang'an City.

She is quite clear about many things that happened outside.

"The Qin family's caravan set out to Liangzhou yesterday. Obviously, they wanted to transport tea bricks to Liangzhou for sale.

But there is no one in Chang'an City that wants, so who in Liangzhou wants it?

At that time, I had a slap in vain, and there would be more people in Chang'an City who joked about the Qin family."

Before he knew it, Qingxia had already begun to think about the problem from the Qin family's standpoint.

"What you said makes sense, but if there is something in it that we don't know or that we didn't expect, then the result is likely to be completely different.

I believe Qin Dalang should have some other means that we don’t know that we haven’t used.”

"Miss, just blindly believe him. At that time, why would the noble families in Chang'an City laugh at him?"

Qingxia stomped her feet, walked away from Yang Yan's room with her long legs.
