Forcing me to keep vigil for your childhood sweetheart? Then I'll leave you.

Chapter 163 Secret Processing Point

"how do I say this?"

Lin Yi asked with some confusion.

He really hadn't figured out how to deal with these vendors before.

After all, he didn't have enough time.

Now that I have some free time, I can think of a solution.

There are already signs that Bao Bu Tong's solution is to only treat the symptoms but not the root cause. If the problem is not solved fundamentally now, I am afraid that there will be more and more vendors selling pirated and inferior goods in the future!

"It seems to be something that happened after the track bikes started operating."

"Many vendors have come from the capital to set up stalls on the edge of Donghai City."

Bao Bu Tong narrated while drinking tea.

At this time, a young man knocked on the door and came in.

"Excuse me, are you Lord Bao and Lord Lin?"

"I just got here."

The young man smiled when he saw Lin Yi and Bao Bu Tong.

Before seeing the two of them, the young man had a bit of a reserved look on his face, but now there was only a smile on his face.

"You are……"

Lin Yi and Bao Bu Tong looked at the young man together, feeling somewhat puzzled, as they did not know him.

"I passed the imperial examination from Liangzhou City!"

"I happened to be in Liangzhou City observing mourning for the past two years..."

After saying this, the young man began to introduce himself, "Master Bao, Master Lin, I am Chen Xu, the new prefect sent by His Majesty."

After hearing this, the two finally understood.

Huangfu Qingling specially sent a prefect from the "Liangzhou faction" to ask him to cooperate well with Lin Yi.

"Go and rest for a while. Someone will report to you on the current situation in Donghai City later."

Bao Bu Tong said, "Now Lord Lin and I have some things to discuss."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Chen Xu was very respectful, his face full of excitement.

After he finished his mourning period, he encountered the rebellion of the King of Qi and the situation of the Yan State in the north, so he was unable to leave Liangzhou City.

It is for this reason that he can feel the joy of the entertainment city in Liangzhou City, and admires Lin Yi's business practices.

Afterwards, he returned to the capital because he had not yet been assigned an official position.

Although he did not have the opportunity to live in the capital, he once again saw the transformation that Lin Yi had made to the capital during that period of time.

Now, he finally has the opportunity to cooperate with Lin Yi, and he is naturally very excited.

After Chen Xu left, Lin Yi began to think about the problems of these vendors.

“I actually had some ideas before.”

Lin Yi took a sip of tea and spoke slowly, "Where do these vendors get their goods from?"

"This……"

Bao Bu Tong also became puzzled. "I checked when I was in Beijing, but they didn't say anything!"

"Eat the soft and not the hard."

"That's what people are."

Lin Yi smiled as he spoke, "I will never give away the things I rely on for survival."

"Indeed, I don't have any good way to deal with such people."

"And now they're acting quite covertly, hiding in corners and selling things secretly. If they're not already familiar with the person, they'll be extremely wary!"

Bao Bu Tong nodded slightly, thinking Lin Yi had guessed everything. "What should we do?"

"These vendors are businessmen after all."

"Can we open a special market outside the city?"

Lin Yi said as he looked at the map of Donghai City.

The southwest corner of Donghai City happens to be connected to this large piece of flat land.

This is the extra land that was leveled when materials were needed.

"If we add some fences on all sides to control the entrances and exits, and build a warehouse next to it..."

Lin Yi found some paper and started drawing. In a moment, the design of a market appeared on the paper!

"I'll find a way to contact these vendors. It's best if your people don't take any more action."

"I give them my goods and let them do legitimate business."

Finally, he offered a solution.

"But your goods... aren't they only available in those stores?"

Bao Bu Tong agreed that giving them a market where they could buy things normally was definitely better than letting them hide and sell fake goods.

"Don't worry, I never said anyone couldn't buy from me."

Lin Yi waved his hand and said, "You'd better relax for now. If I succeed here, there won't be any vendors selling fake goods in the future."

As he said this, he learned the locations of several vendors from Bao Bu Tong, and after disguising himself slightly, he set off alone.

Judging from the way he was dressed, Lin Yi looked like an ordinary citizen who wanted to buy cheap things.

According to the different locations given in the package, Lin Yi found the location of a vendor before dark.

It was an alley with only one end accessible.

Lin Yi walked in while looking around. There was a lot of garbage on the ground and the environment was quite dirty and messy.

"Little brother, are you buying something?"

When he reached the end of the street, he heard two vendors rubbing their hands and talking.

There was a look of joy on his face as new business came to him.

"I do want to buy some things. I was recommended by a friend."

"I heard that things are cheap here?"

Lin Yi asked while glancing around with his peripheral vision.

These vendors didn't bring much, and the three surrounding walls were not very high.

I have to say that these people really know how to choose their locations. As long as soldiers come to catch them, they can just jump over the wall and run away.

As for the goods they brought, they were cheap to begin with, so it didn't matter if they were lost.

After all, the most important thing is that people are safe. As the saying goes, if you have the green mountains, you will never run out of firewood.

"Of course, the things we have here are all good quality and cheap!"

Two of the vendors boasted a little, and then the remaining vendors began to take out samples of the goods they had.

"But they cost sixty coins each in the market!"

"I only want twenty cents!"

"Look at this, it's a special milk tea powder, only 40 cents a pound!"

……

The vendors vied to introduce their "products".

"I heard that it costs 40 cents per pound to make this milk tea powder. You..."

Lin Yi frowned slightly, "Could it be fake?"

"Absolutely impossible, they are all genuine!"

Hearing this, Lin Yi pinched some milk tea powder with his hands to check.

The milk is not good milk, and the tea is not good tea!

Just from the smell, it is completely different from what Lin Yi produces himself.

He selected only the best aged teas, which happened to have no market, so Lin Yi collected them all to make milk tea powder.

"I'll buy some to try first, but I don't have much money."

Lin Yi said, taking out some copper coins, which totaled only a hundred coins, and said, "Can I do business with you and give me a discount?"

Hearing this, although the vendors were a little unhappy, they knew that if someone wanted to join, why not?

Then these vendors gave Lin Yi a 20% discount. After Lin Yi bought some things, he started chatting with these vendors.

As the sky gradually darkened, Lin Yi also learned some "secrets".

In some woods near the capital, there are actually some small workshops. These secret workshops are secretly producing Lin Yi's products!
