The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

Shopkeeper Cui actually said this because he wanted to see Zhao Chen's reaction.

It was also their first time to contact Zhao Chen, but they did not expect that Zhao Chen would be as young as the rumors.

Therefore, shopkeeper Cui preconceived the idea that people of Zhao Chen's age would become mentally disturbed with just a little stimulation.

But it was very obvious that Zhao Chen didn't even react.

Zhao Chen sat behind the counter and looked at the four people standing in front of him with a smile.

A full stick of incense passed by, but no one spoke.

Shopkeeper Cui and the other four people felt that their legs were shaking.

"Why don't you speak, Lord County Marquis?" Shopkeeper Cui couldn't hold on any longer and spoke to Zhao Chen.

"What did you say?" Zhao Chen looked at the script in his hand and said with a smile.

Just because the few bad old men in front of me want to test myself, they are really lacking in skills. .??.

"This..." A strange look flashed across Shopkeeper Cui's face, but he instantly regained his composure. He smiled and said to Zhao Chen, "Master County Marquis, why don't we sit down and talk?"

"Okay." Zhao Chen smiled slightly and sat down on the side of the table.

The table has four sides, and Zhao Chen sits on one side. Of the four shopkeepers who came, only three of them can sit down.

The last person stood aside with an ugly expression.

"May I ask where the Lord County Marquis found this magical thing? I have never seen anything like this in the Tang Dynasty." Shopkeeper Cui sat down and asked Zhao Chen.

They really had never seen anything like it.

It was as if he suddenly appeared in Chang'an City.

When the people were asked, no one answered them.

Shopkeeper Cui thought, if they could find out where the chili pepper appeared, wouldn't they be able to get it themselves?

At that time, you can avoid Zhao Chen's link and make a lot of money directly.

Of course, he also knew that things would not be as simple as he thought.

This Zhao Chen looks young, but his words

Despite the indifference, even Shopkeeper Cui felt a little bit difficult.

"I got it by chance." Zhao Chen said with a smile.

Since they are not in a hurry, Zhao Chen is naturally not in a hurry either.

Isn’t it just nonsense? Who wouldn’t?

Shopkeeper Cui frowned. Zhao Chen's chatting like this made him completely unable to find a chance.

He glanced at the shopkeeper next to him.

Then I saw the shopkeeper of Taiyuan Wang family standing up, cupping hands with Zhao Chen and saying, "Your Majesty, my lord, I am from the Wang family in Taiyuan, and my surname is Wang. I am here sincerely to discuss the chili pepper with your lord, please don't do it." Take care of him."

"I don't quite understand what Shopkeeper Wang means." Zhao Chen looked at Shopkeeper Wang in front of him and said expressionlessly.

"I want to tell the Lord Marquis of the County that we, representing the Boling Cui family, the Cui family of Qinghe, the Wang family of Taiyuan, and the Lu family of Fan Yang, are here to discuss the sale of chili peppers with the Lord Marquis of the County."

"Your Majesty, please be careful in your words and deeds." Shopkeeper Wang looked at Zhao Chen and said coldly.

In their eyes, although Zhao Chen holds a title, he is nothing compared to the people behind them.

If Zhao Chen didn't recognize him, they could take care of him in a matter of seconds.

"So you came here today to tell me this?" Zhao Chen looked at the people in front of him with a playful expression.

He didn't even understand what these people were thinking.

He hasn't even said these words before, and he's directly threatening himself?

"Lord County Marquis, you are still young and there are still many things you can do in the future. The emergence of your pepper has seriously threatened the pepper we control."

"If your chili peppers are put on the market on a large scale, the wealth of our family will definitely shrink significantly."

"

At that time, many things will be out of control, so I would like to ask the county magistrate to do your best and hand over these peppers to us. "

"We will pay the county marquis ten cents per catty as a reward."

Shopkeeper Cui said slowly, looking very serious.

In his words, he had already begun to threaten Zhao Chen.

What do you mean by being unable to control many things?

Don't you just tell Zhao Chen that if you don't agree to their request and give them the right to sell the pepper, someone will come to deal with Zhao Chen!

The other three people also looked at Zhao Chen with indifferent expressions and said nothing. .??.

"Ten cents per catty? What a generous gesture from you guys." Zhao Chen smiled, with a hint of joking at the corner of his mouth.

Even fresh chili peppers definitely cost more than ten cents a pound.

Zhao Chen's plan is to sell it at fifteen cents per catty first, and then lower the price after large-scale planting next year.

Fortunately for these people, they actually wanted to buy it from Zhao Chen at a price of ten cents per catty.

Zhao Chen has reason to believe that once they get these peppers, they will sell them for a sky-high price.

Even if it's in their hands, they won't lower the price.

Otherwise, the pepper they hoard will become completely worthless.

Zhao Chen had chili peppers in his hands, and he could hold them within seven inches.

"Lord County Marquis, you have to think clearly. I heard that Lord County Marquis's bookstore will open in two days."

"I wish you good luck in opening the business in advance, but our rice paper and printing are in short supply recently."

"I'm afraid it will be difficult to supply the county magistrate's bookstore."

"In Chang'an City, all the printing workshops belong to our family. Lord County Marquis, please consider it." Shopkeeper Cui continued, with a look of wisdom on his face.

He might not dare to deal with Zhao Chen openly.

\u003c

br\u003e But secretly, they have many tricks up their sleeves.

Before coming, they had found out that Zhao Chen's Wangyou Bookstore was about to open.

But all the paper in Wangyou Bookstore, as well as the printing of books, come from them.

In other words, if they don't help, Zhao Chen's bookstore will not be able to open.

"Are you threatening Zhao Chen?" Li Shimin stood at the door of the backyard at some point, looking at the shopkeepers in front of him with cold eyes.

Shopkeeper Cui and others looked over at the sound and saw Li Shimin looking at him with an angry look on his face.

These few people were just small shopkeepers, but they didn't know that the person in front of them was Li Shimin, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

A joking look suddenly appeared on his face, "May I ask if your ear heard us threatening the Lord County Marquis?"

"The Lord County Marquis has a title. We are just ordinary people. How can we dare to threaten the Lord County Marquis?"

"Hehe, the County Marquis has a distinguished status. How dare we threaten him? We are just telling the County Marquis some facts."

"Lord County Marquis, your waiter is quite worried about you."

Several shopkeepers smiled and said to Zhao Chen.

Li Shimin only felt that these people were pressing his face to the ground and beating him hard.

For a moment, I was filled with anger.

He could tolerate facing Zhao Chen because of the relationship between Zhao Chen and him. Even if he was spoken to a few words, it wouldn't be a big deal.

And although Zhao Chen was venomous towards him, he didn't hesitate at all when it was time to help.

These bastards dare to sneer at me?

"Lord County Marquis, please think about it carefully. We won't bother you any more today. Let's take our leave." Shopkeeper Cui stood up, said something to Zhao Chen, glanced at Li Shimin, turned around and left.

"Stop!" Li Shimin rushed over.

But they didn't even look at Li Shimin and disappeared under the night.
