232. Good news good news

Everything has a source, and so does rumors. Although Yan Liu is accustomed to using some tricks that are not suitable for the top, it is obviously not the same level as those who are really mixed up.

Xing Er used all the relationships he could use, and followed the clues all the way. In one day, he took out a few foreigners who had been spreading rumors in Chang'an City. After a little scare, these people were like beans pouring in bamboo tubes, and they even said that, based on the information provided by these people, Xing Er quickly found Yan Liu's head.

"Yan Liu?" Luo Yong felt a little surprised when he heard the name. He had not heard Bai Yimao and others mention Yan Liu, so he always thought that the intersection between him and Yan Liu was limited to the deposit he had missed in the past two years.

"Does Sanlang know this person?" Xing Er asked.

"I ordered the order with him two years ago, and the deposit was given, but the goods had never been sent to me." Luo Yong said helplessly. No wonder Du Xi said before that Yan Liu was a vicious dog. Now it seems that it is really difficult to deal with.

"This is like his style." Xing Er said: "There are many shops that I am familiar with, and he has forced them to borrow money."

"Borrow money?" Could it be usury?

"It is obvious that there is no need for money. In order not to offend Yan Liu, he also borrowed it. After borrowing it for one month or two, he offered a large amount of money to pay it back together." Xing Eryan said.

"Tsk." This is even more hateful than usury.

"We are afraid that this Yan Liu will not touch him for the moment." Xing Er said again.

"Why?" Luo Yong knew that Yan Liu had some background, but he didn't know how big his background was.

"This person has some connection with Li Boyi, the King Gong of Longxi. The concubine of Li Boyi's eldest son is the sister of the Yan Liu family." Xing Eryan said.

Hearing this, Luo Yong's heart moved: "What are their brother and sister?"

"I heard that I was just an ordinary farmer." Xing Er replied.

"So that's it..." With a similar background, it's easy to compare the other party with himself, right? Especially for some people who are jealous. Apart from this, Luo Yong really couldn't think of any other reason.

"Sanlang, look, how should we deal with this matter?" To be honest, Xing Er has no good idea for such a person who is tyrannical. If he provokes the Prince Gong's Mansion, the end of the matter will probably not be good.

"The most urgent task at the moment is to pay back the money first." Luo Yong said: "It's better not to let Yan Liu find out that we already know this."

In fact, as long as Luo Yong and others didn't say this, the outsiders naturally wouldn't say it. They just followed the instructions to do things. After the matter was finished, they would walk far away with money. Who would be so stupid? They were rushing to eat that meal.

So in this way, just as Luo Yong and others were starting to raise money in full swing, Yan Liu was still dreaming of taking over groceries from both north and south.

After he was disturbed by this, Luo Yong would not be able to raise money by selling bamboo sticks. As soon as the rumors spread, some people were already worried. At this time, Luo Yong would sell bamboo sticks at a low price. I am afraid that many people would think that their Luo family siblings would not be able to hold on anymore, so they wanted to use bamboo sticks to get some money and run away.

However, Yan Liu finally underestimated Luo Yong. Even if he didn't have that batch of cashmere, even if he didn't sell bamboo sticks, Luo Yong wouldn't have been unable to get money. Since ancient times, fame and fortune have not been divided. With Luo Yong's image he has managed little by little over the years, it is actually not difficult to turn over some money in Chang'an City. After all, there are many merchants from Guanhe Dongdao and Guanneidao in Chang'an City, and he just doesn't want to open this mouth.

As for Yan Liu's so-called trick, he was stupid to instigate someone to use a book.

No one in Chang'an City knew that Luo Sanlang was both an official and a businessman. Although these shops were not under his own name, his industry was still not lost. The reason why no one has made a fuss about this matter until now is nothing more than someone above. Whether it is the emperor or the gentry, they all want to see how much goods are in Luo Sanlang's belly.

Now it’s not that Luo Yongba wants to be an official in the court, but the people above want to dig treasures from him and want him to be this official, a small assistant to the Imperial Academy, and the professor is also a professional match, so there is no need to worry that he will mislead his children.

After the incident of Yan Liu, Luo Yong remembered that there were many people who didn’t like him in this Chang'an City. The batch of goods that Luo Erniang sent him might have been stopped by someone, and maybe it was outside Chang'an City.

For this matter, Luo Yong specially went to find one of his students, who had gone to Xipo Village to find a gentry who had studied mathematics. Their family was just west of Chang'an City and was very familiar with the post stations there.

“…”

“Good news and good news!”

"Luo Sanlang is short of money!"

"Luo Sanlang owes half of the money to buy a house, but he can't take it out!"

“The north and south grocery items are sold at 20% off!

"20% off! 20% off! 20% off all!"

"Three days of promotion! There are surprises every day!"

"Everyone, go and have a look!"

"After passing this village, there is no such store!"

“…”

Early this morning, many children were distributing leaflets in the market at the top of their throats. When everyone heard this, they all had a 20% discount, which was a great deal!

"The head of the family! The head of the family! Do you think? The north and south groceries are on sale."

"Listen, listen."

"Go quickly and buy a few more cans of fermented bean curd and buy one cream cake."

"Hey, I'll go now."

“…”

"What? North and South groceries? 20% off?"

"Could it be that Yan Erfei, the wheel of Eucommia Glue, is also 20% off?"

"That's much cheaper than usual!"

"Look at it."

"My kid has wanted a pair of rubber-soled leather boots for a long time, so I'll take a look."

“…”

"When Mifangzhai's pastries are discounted, wouldn't they be cheaper than their own shops?"

"That's right, go and have a look."

"I heard that Mifangzhai has also been discounted today."

"What? What day is today? Why are everyone discounted?"

"Isn't it the seventh day of the second lunar month today? There is no New Year or Festival."

"Everyone and the children said that it was Na Luo Sanro who was short of money."

"Let's go, send money to Luo Sanlang, hehe."

“…”

When Luo Yong gave a discount, the old brands that entered their supermarkets also gave discounts. Many merchants in the city joined in the fun, which made the whole city full of controversy.

For several days, Chang'an City heard the children shouting there: "Good news and good news! Luo Sanlang has no money! Luo Sanlang can't afford to buy a house and owe people money..."

The merchants from Hedong Road all went to the north and south to find Luo Yong, saying that if they needed money and money turnover, they could borrow some from them first. There were also people from the Guannei Road. Last year, Luo Yong built roads on Guannei Road, and many of them were direct beneficiaries.

When the emperor heard the news in the palace, he laughed a few times and sent a cart of silk cloth over. Luo Yong accepted the silk cloth. Anyway, the emperor had enough money, and it would not be free. Regarding the merchants' proposal to lend money to him, Luo Yong thanked them for their kindness, and said that if there is a need in the future, he would seek help from these people, but now he would not.

This promotion for North and South groceries was similar in the first two days, and the third day was the highlight. Even the lines of the children who sent flyers were different:

"Luo Sanlang is crazy! He just arrived at a batch of cashmere sweaters yesterday! All are sold at 20% off!"

"A set of cashmere sweaters and pants costs three stakes, and you can get 600 cents at 20% off!"

“…”

A set of cashmere sweaters only sell for about 2,400 yuan. This price is simply too affordable for the people living in Chang'an City!

Although Luo Yong had sold a set of sweaters and pants in Lishi two years ago, it was about two cents of yuan after all, and the price of cashmere at that time was much lower than now. Besides, it was in Lishi County, not Chang'an City.

Many Chang'an families actually have some money and can afford cashmere sweaters and pants. They also have the intention to shop, but because the price is too expensive, they keep hesitating and watching. Unexpectedly, the price of cashmere is higher every year.

Although it is early spring at this time, it is not the right season to buy cashmere sweaters, but it is cheap after all. For many families at this time, this set of cashmere sweaters is a big item at home. It is not like the 21st century that you have to change the new style every year. It is not a big deal to buy it in spring or in autumn.

There were too many people coming to buy cashmere sweaters from north and south, so they had to have someone guard the entrance of the shop, limiting the number of people entering the shop. There were long queues outside the shop.

The batch of cashmere sweaters and pants sent by Luo Erniang are of excellent material and exquisite workmanship. If the cost is mentioned, each set of sweaters and pants will look about 1,200 yuan. In addition, the shipping fee will be around 1,500 yuan. Luo Yong sells about 2,400 yuan. Compared with the entire cashmere market, it is already a small profit but quick turnover.

Generally, merchants go to Liangzhou City and other places to purchase goods, and then transport them back to Chang'an City for sale thousands of miles. The cost is high, the time is long, the journey is long, and the journey is long. They also risk being robbed by bandits and gangsters. The price has not doubled, so they don't want to take action at all.

The batch of goods that Luo Yong was detained was previously less than a hundred miles away from Chang'an City.

Luo Yong didn't know whether the person who detained his goods was in contact with Yan Liu or wanted to find money. After all, the person who could detain this batch of goods was also powerful, unlike the few foreigners who spread rumors in Chang'an City before, who could easily scare and say anything.

Besides, Luo Yong asked someone to help him deal with the situation, the purpose was to transport this batch of goods to Chang'an City smoothly. Nothing else was mentioned. After all, it would be great if someone could help you get the goods back. Can he still ask him to make enemies for Luo Yong?

After this crazy three-day promotion, the impact caused by the previous rumors has long been unknown where the surging passenger flow has been driven away.

These customers who have entered the store these days are full of buying and buying. The biggest worry is that they are not sure whether to buy this, or that, or both. As for the money bag, few people really remember this.

In fact, shopping in groceries in the north and south is quite safe. At that time, there were thieves in supermarkets at that time, and supermarkets had no choice but to do this.

Luo used this grocery store in Xing Erzhen, so he usually didn't dare to come. Besides, there were those children watching him. Even if he came, it wouldn't be so easy to start.

After the three-day promotion, the big and small employees in the shop no longer looked as worried as they were a few days ago. The money they used was settled, and the business in the shop was also very good.

As for the rumors outside, many people have heard of them. To be honest, it is not a big deal to lose their money. You can just go wherever you throw them. If you come to the shop and tell Luo Sanlang, Luo Sanlang might be able to find them for him, and it may not be the ones that were thrown in this shop.

"Master, Yan Liu sent people here today." When Luo Yong arrived at the shop again, a disciple said to him.

"Oh, what did he say?" Luo raised his eyebrows.

"Then Yan Liu asked someone to come over and say, Master, the debt you wrote before is now in his hands. He told us that if we still have cashmere sweaters and pants in our hands, we should not continue to take action. We can just use this to pay for the money."

"He is quite good at thinking." Luo Yong sneered.
