The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

Li Yuan suddenly realized, oh, five thousand strings.

That's not too little, five thousand strings for himself, and more for Erlang.

He still has half left in his hand. If all is said and done, the tea shop can make so much money in three days, it's really a good deal.

Li Yuan was very satisfied. He was afraid that his nephew would suffer a loss. He brought so much money to Huizhou before, and emptied the family's assets. If the tea business loses money, wouldn't his nephew be distressed and lose a lot?

"Well, three days is not a small amount. After a while, your family assets will be back." Li Yuan said happily.

Li Yuan's attitude made Li Fu lose confidence.

Family assets, it will take some time?

What time? It has already recovered and made a lot of money.

The money taken out for dividends is the money deducted from the initial investment, and the rest will be distributed.

What is the emperor thinking?

However, he is worthy of being the emperor, born in a noble family and has seen the world.

A mere 50,000 guan cannot stir up the emperor at all, he is calm.

He is the emperor after all!

"Uncle, it is this number." Li Fu stretched out his five fingers again.

"Okay, okay, I know." Li Yuan smiled and said, "You are always filial, but you still have to earn back the money you spent on your business. This is the most important thing."

Li Fu felt something was wrong the more he listened.

"Uncle, I have earned it back." Li Fu said.

"Earned it back? I remember that you brought a lot of money when you went to Huizhou." Li Yuan said.

"Yes, that was all taken out, and the rest was given to the palace." Li Fu responded.

Now it was Li Yuan's turn to be surprised.

After deducting 80,000 guan, there are still 5,000 guan left to be sent to Da'an Palace.

Is this tea shop making money like this?

This is more than all the businesses of the Duke of Tang's mansion combined. It's only been open for three days! Only three days!!!

The old ministers sitting in the hall looked at each other in bewilderment.

What were His Majesty and King Jingyang talking about in a low voice? Why did His Majesty look so surprised?

They saw Li Fu making gestures with the emperor, and wondered if King Jingyang was asking the emperor for money, asking for 500 guan or something.

The emperor always loved King Jingyang, so it was reasonable to reward him.

But the question is, does King Jingyang need this little money?

He has a carpenter's workshop under his command, but it earns enough money from the rich and powerful families in Chang'an City. Who hasn't ordered furniture from the furniture shop?

"Then your business is really profitable." Li Yuan whispered, "Have you made back all the money?"

"Yes, it has made back all the money. Uncle, you have heard about the reputation of tea in advance, and you have also tasted the good tea. Just think about it, once this shop opens, people will flock to it." Li Fu smiled.

Li Yuan nodded in agreement.

This tea is indeed a good thing.

However, the tea sold outside is not as good as the one sent by his good nephew.

He drank special tea.

When summoning these old ministers to Da'an Palace today, Li Yuan ordered the palace maids to serve them tea.

After tasting it, these people praised it again and again.

Most of these people have asked their own housekeepers and servants to buy tea in the tea shop, and more or less, they have good tea at home.

But the good tea they bought is much inferior to the tea here of the retired emperor.

The tea served to them by the retired emperor had tender buds standing upright in the tea bowl, and it looked better than what they bought back home.

They also talked about this with the retired emperor.

This is what Li Yuan said.

"The tea sold outside Chang'an City is all first-class good tea, but the tea here is different from the tea on the market. The tea here is special tea, which cannot be bought outside, there is no place to buy it, and the shop will not sell it. It is specially supplied to the palace."

Li Yuan said this, and these old ministers understood.

This is the tribute tea of ​​the royal family, and the tea shop dare not sell it.

But it does not prevent them from coming to the retired emperor to have a sip of good tea in the future.

Not to mention, there are tea artists who specialize in making tea in the retired emperor's palace. The skills, craftsmanship, and movements are as beautiful as poetry and painting.

The person is beautiful and the tea is sweet.

It's a pity that there is no tea artist with such skills in my house.

Li Fu and Li Yuan's conversation seemed to be off the track, but it didn't seem to hinder the topic between them.

Li Yuan has been the emperor for so many years, and I don't know if his imagination has degenerated. Chang'anHe should know how rich and lucrative the high-ranking families in the city are.

Even if a box of tea costs 188 strings of cash, it can't resist their enthusiasm for spending money.

"Uncle, the things are outside. I'll have them move them to the warehouse for you." Li Fu said.

"Okay, okay." Li Yuan responded with a smile.

"After you deliver it here, I still have to deliver it to my second brother, so I won't stay here any longer." Li Fu said.

"Okay, you go and get busy." Li Yuan smiled.

Today, there are old ministers in the hall, so Li Yuan will not keep Li Fu to talk more, this kid still has to take care of other things.

Busy, all busy, it's better to be busy.

Li Fu left the hall and told Li Jiu and others to quickly move the money to the warehouse of the retired emperor, leaving some people here to work with the people in the retired emperor's palace.

The rest, hurry to Liangyi Hall.

After Li Jiu made all the arrangements, he followed Li Fu to pull the remaining 78,000 strings of cash to Liangyi Hall.

Therefore, such a scene appeared in the palace.

The mighty motorcade entered the imperial city and went to Da'an Palace. Not long after, the motorcade came out again. Although there were fewer people, it was still very powerful and went directly to Liangyi Hall of Taiji Palace where the emperor lived.

Under normal circumstances, such a scene would never appear in the palace.

The guards in the palace looked sideways.

What is this?

If Li Fu and Li Jiu had not walked in front, the motorcade would have been checked twice every three steps after entering the palace.

Li Jiu brought the emperor's handwritten order, which represented the emperor's intention, so no one dared to stop the motorcade.

When the motorcade entered the square of Liangyi Hall, the eunuchs waiting outside the hall were shocked.

What is going on?

He hurried into the hall to report to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, there are many carriages outside the palace." The eunuch bowed and said, "The ones leading them are Guard Li Jiu and Prince Jingyang."

"Yes." Li Shimin nodded, "They are here."

After saying that, he put down the memorial in his hand, stood up and planned to go outside the palace to take a look.
