Chapter 19: Shanzhai? Kill the chickens to warn the monkeys

"What a jade-faced flying dragon, give it to me, sell it to me!"

Before the little meat ball could react, Yuchi Xiuyan reached out and snatched the seal in his hand, which scared the children around him.

Seeing this, the servant in charge of selling blind boxes couldn't help but frown slightly. This is Vientiane City, and this little boy is afraid that he will cause trouble.

The servant wanted to come forward to dissuade Yuchi Xiuyan, but at this time, a friend behind Yuchi Xiuyan said something with Yuchi Xiuyan.

Yuchi Xiuyan turned his head and looked at the servant, and was very unwilling to return the seal to the little meat ball.

The lost little meat ball was in a look of shock. The ones they were most afraid of was Yuchi Xiuyan.

It can be said that Yuchi Xiuyan is the big leader in the minds of all children between the ages of five and ten.

"Hmph, what's the big deal? I'll ask the craftsmen at home to make one for me."

He said unintentionally and listened to intentionally, not only were children around him, but also a few vendors who came to learn from the scriptures.

They have never seen blind boxes before. They dare to sell a silver coin if they have a blind box, and they even dare not think about it.

But everything has a beginning. Since Vientiane City has already had a successful case, it means they can do it too.

In the past six months, many businessmen in Chang'an City have begun to imitate the business model of the Shuofang Chamber of Commerce, including a large number of officials from the court and representatives of aristocratic families led by Li Shimin.

Small merchants are not that large in scale, but there is no way to go. They do not have such a large fortune, so they imitate a series of hot-selling products launched by the Shuofang Chamber of Commerce.

Perfumes, soaps, skin care products, etc. are too difficult to learn, and they can’t learn them even if you want to. But today, this blind box is simple, just a cardboard box with a wooden seal placed inside. It’s not easy to get it!

However, after someone went back, he found that cardboard was a bit difficult. Many people in Chang'an City wanted to imitate this thing, but the finished product was not satisfactory. Since cardboard could not be imitated, vendors simply purchased a large number of wooden boxes at low prices.

As for the seal... just copy it...

In this way, the next day, there were only two days before the opening of the Tang Dynasty Pavilion and the Marseille.

In the streets and alleys of Chang'an City, a large number of small vendors selling blind boxes suddenly appeared. The price was low, only half that of Vientiane City. The shape was also very unique. Boxes made of wood have more texture than paper boxes.

The news soon reached Vientiane City, and then from Vientiane City to the Chang'an Branch of Shuofang Chamber of Commerce.

The first time Zhen Youcai learned about this, he sent it to the Princess's Mansion on Yongchangfang without stopping.

After Xi Yunfei finished lunch, Zhen Youcai happened to find him.

···

"Haha, don't worry, Master Zhen, this matter will be handled. You can just pretend that nothing happened."

Xi Yunfei sat on a bamboo rocking chair in the middle of the yard, basking in the sun leisurely, wearing a pair of sunglasses on his face, which was the most fashionable and fashionable...

Zhen Youcai nodded. After the news arrived, he reported on the work at the Chamber of Commerce and left.

After Zhen Youcai left, two more people came into the yard, one of which was Zhang Chong, the head of Marseille, and the other was the young eunuch Huang An.

After the two bowed to Xi Yunfei, Zhang Chong said, "Mr. Lang, you are indeed a god-like prediction. Those people really copied our blind boxes, and even made the seals exactly the same. The ridiculous thing is that they directly made a large number of jade-faced flying dragons and sold them directly to those customers who were unable to get it."

"Everything else is fine. Did the jade-faced Feilong and the others really imitate it?" Xi Yunfei asked without raising his head.

Zhang Chong nodded quickly: "It's true, look, I asked someone to buy one." As he said that, he presented a seal to Xi Yunfei with both hands.

Xi Yunfei reached out and raised his sunglasses, glanced at the seal in his hand, and then asked Huang An on the side: "Huang Lishi, how many words on this seal are imitated?"

The little eunuch Huang An curled his lips slightly and replied, "Don't worry, although he has only imitated forty or fifty percent, it is enough to kill the chicken to scare the monkey. These people are so brave that they dare to plagiarize His Majesty's handwriting. This is a serious crime, and it's enough to lose your head."

Xi Yunfei smiled, waved his hand, and said, "This matter will be left to both of you to deal with. But just let's just kill someone, just fine some money, and give some lessons by the way. You can lock it up for ten days and half a month."

"My husband is kind!" The little eunuch Huang An slapped a rainbow fart.

Zhang Chong nodded slightly and said, "Okay, don't worry, with Huang Lishi's help, I believe those people will not dare to copy them at will in the future."

"Well, you guys go and do it."

After a pause, Xi Yunfei said to Huang An: "Huang Lishi, go back to Shuofang Chamber of Commerce. I asked Zhen Youcai to prepare a gift, and you can help me to send it to the palace for the Empress and several imperial concubines."

When the little eunuch Huang An heard this, he felt a sudden joy in his eyes: "In this way, I thanked the husband for the concubines."

"Haha, go."

···

That afternoon.

Jingzhao Mansion dispatched ten electric vehicles, and the full yamen runners were dressed neatly and holding killing sticks.

The reason why Xi Yunfei asked Li Shimin to invest in Marseille in the name of the East Palace was that he wanted to use Li Shimin's name to rectify these plagiarized small vendors.

Real families and big merchants disdain to plagiarize. They can learn ideas because things like ideas are not considered copying, but at most they are considered reference.

However, blind boxes are different. Blind boxes are considered real products and real items.

If those people don’t have seals inside, Xi Yunfei would be embarrassed to play with killing the chicken to warn the monkey.

But the group of people were not afraid of death, so they copied the seal in their original form and plagiarized a large number of jade-faced flying dragons to make huge profits, causing the jade-faced flying dragon to lose its due collection value.

Some people may say that just a seal, what is there to collect?

What if Xi Yunfei told everyone that the words on the seal were written by His Majesty Emperor Li Shimin?

To put it bluntly, Xiao Rouqian's father, the head of the Lu family, would directly offer the seal.

Throughout the afternoon, the streets of Chang'an City were filled with a tense atmosphere.

The yamen runners in Jingzhao Mansion asked about vendors selling counterfeit blind boxes. As long as they found them, they would just take them down and they couldn't escape even if they wanted to.

On the Shuofang Chamber of Commerce, Zhen Youcai cooperated with the young eunuch Huang An and directly issued an announcement.

The content of the announcement is some precautions about the Marseille derivative surrounding areas.

What should you pay attention to?

Be careful not to thunder.

Because all the peripheral products related to the twenty riders either have the inscriptions of Li Shimin or the inscriptions of a certain cabinet master.

For a time, many vendors who wanted to take the opportunity to make a fortune were crying.

If they give them eighteen heads, they dare not copy them. Who would be unable to live with their own lives?

In this way, after a round of crackdowns, Vientiane City, which is exclusively sold as a Marseille peripheral product, ushered in another procurement boom. This time, not only those little kids, but Chang'an City once again mobilized.

Who doesn’t want to offer a treasure written by His Majesty the Emperor at home? Buying blind boxes is no longer a pleasure for children!

In such a hot atmosphere, the day when the Tang Dynasty Pavilion opened came in a flash...
Chapter completed!
