" Your Highness King Chu?"
Attendant Zhao was stunned and hesitated for a moment.
"What's wrong?"
This was also the first time Li Shimin had seen such a reaction from Imperial Attendant Zhao. He couldn't help but be curious,"Did that guy get into trouble?"
" No," Imperial Attendant Zhao shook his head." But..."
"But what? Tell me!" Li Shiming said impatiently. What is that kid doing?"
"Your Highness, you've been…selling steamed buns these few days!”
"What did you say?"
Li Shi Min opened his eyes in shock and asked in disbelief,""He…he is a prince, and he actually went to sell steamed buns?!”
Seeing Zhao nodded, Li Shimin rubbed his eyebrows even harder.
"Preposterous, really preposterous! Wasn't he humiliating himself?”
Li Shimin really couldn't understand why Li You, a prince, would do such a despicable thing. Could it be…
Suddenly, Li Shi Min thought of a possibility and muttered,""Could it be because I said that I didn't know if he had the talent to do so, so it stimulated Yang Jie's competitive spirit and made him sell steamed buns?”
"Perhaps it was because of this that His Highness went to find State Preceptor Yuan on the night His Majesty left. He started selling steamed buns the next day."”
"He went to look for State Preceptor Yuan?" Li Shimin was stunned." Why? What did State Preceptor Yuan do after that?"
"Imperial Preceptor Yuan has been by His Royal Highness 'side for the next few days. It's said that he has already become a consecrator of the Chu royal residence.”
If Li You was present, he would definitely be shocked, because there were only a few of them present at that time, but these things could not be hidden from Li Shi Min at all. If he wanted to know, he would have a way to know.
However, when Li Shiming found out, he was really shocked."What? That Master Yuan actually became Yang Jie's consecrator? That's impossible, right?"
Yuan Tiangang had always given people the image of a transcendent expert.
Moreover, he was a man of real ability, which was why Li Shiming had always thought highly of Yuan Tiangang. However, he did not expect Yuan Tiangang to inexplicably go to the Chu royal residence to be a consecrator, which really puzzled Li Shiming.
After thinking for a while, Li Shimin sighed and said,"Yang Jie, that kid, is really messing around! How much money could a prince earn by selling steamed buns? What if someone finds out?"
In Li Shimin's opinion, Li You was still too eager to prove himself. After all, how much could steamed buns sell for a day? How could he prove anything?
When Imperial Attendant Zhao heard this, his face twitched.
"This…Your Majesty, the steamed buns sold by His Highness King Chu earned nearly three thousand strings of money yesterday alone!”
"Three thousand wen?" Li Shimin didn't hear him clearly. It's not bad, but what can this little money do…"
"Your Majesty, it's three thousand strings of money, not three thousand wen!"”
Li Shi Min was stunned and asked in disbelief,"Are you sure?"
" Yes, I'm sure." Chamberlain Zhao nodded with certainty." According to the share of cooperation that His Highness Chu gave to the various relay stations, His Highness Chu made a net profit of 2,000 strings of money yesterday!”
" Two thousand strings of money!?"
Li Shi Min jumped up from his chair in shock.
2,000 strings of coins, that was a whole 2 million wen, this was not a small sum!
Most importantly, this was the money that Li You had earned in just one day!
" Even the reward that I gave him a few days ago, he can earn it in just four days…" Li Shimin muttered to himself," What kind of steamed bun is it that is so valuable?"”
"Send someone to buy one for me immediately!"”
"Yes, sir!"
The efficiency of the Imperial Palace was still very high. Soon, the steaming steamed buns of the Li family were placed in front of Li Shiming.
" This looks really good," Li Shimin looked at the white and tender Li Mantou curiously." Even I have never seen this kind of steamed bun before. Just by smelling it, I can feel a sweet fragrance. No wonder it sells so well."”
Li Shimin picked up a steamed bun and took a bite.
After taking a bite, Li Shiming's eyes widened!
"How soft and sweet! And it's not sour at all!"
Li Shiming ate a few more mouthfuls and finished the whole bun. He let out a long sigh of satisfaction and clicked his tongue,"How did this happen? Are those imperial chefs in the imperial kitchen all trash? The steamed buns they make are actually not as delicious as the ones made by my son!”
However, even if the steamed buns were amazing, with Li Shiming's knowledge, it was still not enough to sell for two to three thousand strings of money.
"By the way, how much is this steamed bun?”
Li Shi Min picked up another one and asked casually.
"Your Majesty, 50 coins for one.”
"5...50 coins each?”Li Shi Min almost choked on the steamed bun in his mouth!
He was one of the few emperors in history who was very sympathetic to the people's feelings. Therefore, he knew the situation of the people better than Yuan Tiangang and the others. Naturally, he also knew how ridiculously expensive 50 wen was!
"Tell me in detail how Yang Jie managed to sell the steamed buns for 50 wen these few days!”
Li Shi Min's expression became serious. Zhao nodded and told him all the information he had gathered.
When Li Shiming heard this, he was completely stunned in front of the table. Even the action of chewing the steamed bun in his mouth was unconsciously repeated mechanically.
After swallowing all the steamed buns, Li Shiming's eyes lit up!
"Taste testing, limited purchase, limited edition…Wonderful! It's really wonderful!"
Li Shimin became more and more excited as he spoke," I didn't expect Yang Jie to use so many tricks to accurately grasp people's hearts in just three days. None of them have ever been thought of by anyone before!"”
"In my opinion, His Highness King Chu has undoubtedly proved himself. He is also a genius in this field!"”
Li Shi Min stood up and waved his hand,"Follow me to the Chu royal residence. I want to have a good talk with Yang Jie!”
