Prosperous Tang Dynasty

Chapter 56 The Emperor's Money Is Easy to Earn
The next day, Li Fei sent the telescope to his godmother Yang Guifei.

"It's really fun!" Concubine Yang's telescope, like a happy bird, couldn't get enough of it, and dragged Tang Xuanzong up to Daming Mountain, the highest place in the palace.

Looking down from Daming Mountain, half of Chang'an City can be seen.

After more than ten years in the palace, Concubine Yang seldom left the palace. She longed to play and walk in the market outside the palace when she was a child, carefree and able to see all kinds of things in the world.Now that she is a noble concubine, due to her status, it is impossible for her to walk in the market. Even if she can go out, the people around her will kneel and worship on both sides of the road, just watching that scene all the way, it is better not to go out.

With a telescope, it is different. You can see everything outside through the palace wall in the palace, and even watch the various behaviors of the people or what is happening.

"Sanlang, I like it very much. You said yesterday that you must reward Fei Er heavily." Concubine Yang Guifei was very happy, but she did not forget Li Fei, her godson, and remembered to ask for benefits for him, reminding Tang Xuanzong What I said yesterday.

Li Fei was originally a person who valued emotions, and he would keep in mind those who treat him well and repay them twice.Although his psychological age is older than that of Concubine Yang, after all, he is a newborn after time travel. He is now a boy under the age of 17. Even if he is really a godson for Concubine Yang, so what? There is nothing shameless to enjoy Concubine Yang’s maternal love Yes, from now on, I will respect from the bottom of my heart like a child treats his mother.

"It really is a good thing!" Tang Xuanzong also took a look at it, and he was also very interested, but as a man, he had to take care of his own woman, so the time the telescope was in the hands of Concubine Yang was far more than his. .

"Li Fei, how much does this thing cost?" Tang Xuanzong asked.

"Returning to Your Majesty, Li Fei spent 300 taels. But that's because of several defective products. If it is mass-produced, it can be up to 100 taels!" The main reason is that Datang's pure colored colored glaze is too expensive. To produce glass, and directly produce lenses with the same size and thickness as the lenses, the cost is only one or two hundred yuan.

Tang Xuanzong nodded. Although 100 taels is not cheap, it is still no problem to make some. The telescope is fully worth the price.

"If it is used to check the enemy's situation at the border, especially on the grassland, it will definitely be a great weapon!" Tang Xuanzong laughed.

The telescope is indeed a sharp tool for observing the enemy's situation in war.

After all, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty was a former sage, and now he is not confused and knows how to maximize the value of some things.

Concubine Yang was happy, and Tang Xuanzong was also happy. He also thought of the greatest value of the telescope. With a wave of his hand, not only did Li Fei personally participate in the supervision of the production of a batch of telescopes, but he also rewarded Li Fei with 5000 taels of gold.

Several palace guards followed Li Fei and helped him bring the 5000 taels of gold back to Jingyanghou Mansion.

He only got 3000 taels of gold yesterday, and today he got 5000 taels of gold. In two days, he brought 8000 taels of gold from Emperor Xuanzong of Tang to his home, equivalent to a total of 8 taels of gold!
He worked so hard to buy Zhaojiayao, and made tiles, pits, and cement, and he hasn't sold it for so much money until now. The emperor's money is easy to make.

Not only money, but with Tang Xuanzong's will, he can even not go to work in the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Anyway, the things recorded by the Ministry of Criminal Justice can be done by anyone, and it is not his fault.

"My lady, I'm back!" Li Fei shouted into the courtyard.

After several palace guards put down the gold, they bowed their hands to Li Fei, and then returned to the palace to report.Before leaving, Li Fei gave them ten taels of silver each.It would be too stingy for someone to work so hard to help him bring so much gold home.

With Huan'er's support, Lin Shiyue came out with a big belly.

Li Fei opened the box, and a box full of gold shone in the sunlight, emitting a golden light that filled the courtyard.

"Husband, you brought back so much gold again!" Lin Shiyue was stunned. In two days, 8000 taels of gold was enough to buy the Lin family's family property of nearly a hundred years. Your Majesty is too generous.

Huan'er's eyes also glowed with golden light, my uncle is too powerful, so I admire him.It's a pity, why does my uncle look down on her?If the lady is pregnant with a child, her stomach is already so big, and she will not be able to serve the uncle for at least half a year until she is born and recuperated, why the uncle would rather hold back the pain than ask her to serve the lady instead.

She was originally the lady's personal servant girl, and she was destined to be the uncle's roommate when the lady was inconvenient.

What a grievance!
"Fuck!" A horrified voice came.

Li Fei looked up, it was Cao Xiaozhong.As soon as he entered the gate of the courtyard, he saw the golden box in the middle of the courtyard at a glance, and he was so scared that he took two steps back in disbelief.

After a while, he came to Li Fei with his two fat eyes wide open, still staring at the gold in the box.

"This appearance, this fineness, it's just too good! Brother, how did you get it!" Cao Xiaozhong's saliva almost didn't flow out. People who like to do business often like money the most. Looking at Cao Xiaozhong's golden eyes, he can't wait to put Li Fei held the gold in his arms.

"It was made in the palace. If you have the ability, go get a box yourself. This box belongs to me!" Li Fei kindly reminded Cao Xiaozhong.

"Forget it!" Hearing that it was done in the palace, Cao Xiaozhong immediately lowered his face. Anyway, he definitely didn't have that ability, and he couldn't help it if he was greedy.

"Hey, brother, you're so good, I'm too embarrassed to make a fool of yourself in front of you with my achievements this month." Cao Xiaozhong sighed helplessly.

Today he came to report to Li Fei about the sales of Zhaojiayao.

In view of Cao Xiaozhong's interest and talent in business, Li Fei handed over all the tiles, pits and cement produced by Zhao's kiln to Cao Xiaozhong for sale.I have to say that Li Fei's choice was too correct.It was originally ordinary tiles and pits, but Cao Xiaozhong came up with a lot of tricks. Only the shape and some patterns were changed. Compared with the ordinary tiles, the price even differed by two or three times, and the profit also increased significantly.

And this so-called pattern is not a colored pattern, but an ordinary unevenness carved by hand before firing.Even so, Cao Xiaozhong could sell for two or three times more.Except that Cao Xiaozhong really has a lot of talent for doing business, it's also one thing for Chang'an City to be taken advantage of. Who would let those princes, ministers, and wealthy families not be short of money at all.

For a month, the tiles, pits and cement fired by the big kiln were in short supply, and they were basically pulled away as soon as they were fired.

Originally, the Cao family and the Zhao family asked Li Fei to discuss whether to build more large kilns to expand production, but Li Fei refused.The so-called hunger sales, if there is too much output at once, it will become a mass product, instead of the current situation where only people with high status can get the goods first, and it will provoke other people to follow suit, and the price will be sold at a better price. By the way, Zhaojiayao's reputation was also built.

The porcelain from Zhaojia Kiln was originally the top porcelain in Chang'an City. Now all the dignitaries in Chang'an City know about Zhaojia Kiln, and they are deeply impressed. is long term.

After one month, more than 300 pieces of squatting pits were sold, nearly 60 tiles were sold, more than 10 catties of cement were sold, and the revenue was a full 7000 taels, while the cost was less than 3000 taels. There is a profit of more than [-] taels.

Excluding the 6% that went to Cao Xiaozhong and Zhao's father and son, there were still more than 10,000 taels in Li Fei's hands.In just this month, Li Fei has already earned [-]+ taels including the rewards from Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty, and the Jingyang Hou Mansion also has enough wealth background.

Li Fei thought that after a month, the ceramic tiles and squat pits may have already been imitated, but no one has dared to be the first to sell them, but the benefits are touching, and they will appear on the market on a large scale soon On the other hand, the price drop is inevitable.

Then it's time for the cement to be presented.
