The youth charged straight at Li Yin. Li Yin cried out in his heart and turned to leave. Who would have thought that the youth's speed would be so shocking that he would overtake Li Yin very quickly?
Unable to hide, Li Yin could only say with a bitter face,""Brother Huailiang, don't you usually not come to this place for fireworks? Why did she change her temper today and even called the Great General over?”
Cheng Huailiang looked like he was in trouble. He hid behind Li Yin and trembled." It's all because of that brat Lu Boyan. He said he wanted to treat me to a drink and dragged me here."”
As he spoke, the middle-aged man had already arrived in front of Li Yin. When he saw Li Yin, the middle-aged man put away his axes and bowed."Greetings, Sixth Prince."
"Great General Cheng!" Li Yin returned the greeting. This person was none other than the famous Cheng Yaojin in history.
"Brat, let's see where you can run to!”Cheng Yaojin was famous for his fiery temper in the imperial court. He bowed, picked up his axe, and swung it at Cheng Huailiang.
"Help!" Cheng Huailiang held onto Li Yin tightly, treating him like a meat shield.
Cheng Yaojin gritted his teeth. He couldn't do anything with the axe in his hand. If he hurt Li, it would be a big crime.
At this point, Li Yin hurriedly pulled him back."General, if you hit him with this axe, Huailiang will lose his life. I asked on your behalf. It's his first offense and he was lured by Lu Boyan.”
Although Cheng Yaojin was a general, he was also a shrewd person. Since Li Yin had made up his mind to protect Cheng Huailiang, he couldn't teach him a lesson, so he said,"Today, I'll let you off on account of His Highness. Next time, I'll break your legs.”
After bidding farewell, Cheng Yaojin left with his men. Cheng Huailiang heaved a sigh of relief and continued,"Hurry up and save them!"
"Save who?" Li Yin asked curiously.
"Lu Boyan, this kid was beaten by my father. I don't know how he is now.”As he spoke, he pulled Li Yin into Li Chun Courtyard…
A horse carriage slowly moved along the straight street towards the Liang Residence. In the carriage, besides Li Yin, there was also Cheng Huailiang and Lu Boyan, who had been beaten into a pig's head.
"I want to impeach your father, I want to impeach…"
Along the way, Lu Boyan kept repeating these words. Cheng Huailiang was apologizing and apologizing on behalf of his father. The carriage was very small, and with the addition of a brawny man and a horizontal one, Li Yin was squeezed into a corner.
"I say, the two of you, go home if you should. What do you mean by staying at my place for the time being?”Li Yin's face darkened. He was really careless in making friends.
Lu Boyan was very angry today." Can I go home like this?”He pointed at his deformed face.
"My father's anger probably hasn't subsided yet. I'll go back in two days.”Cheng Huailiang begged pitifully.
Looking at the two scoundrels, Li Yin could only admit that he was unlucky. Why did he have to think of going shopping today!
After returning to the palace, Li asked Jin Daqian to prepare two guest rooms and left the two guys to fend for themselves. The public sale of shampoo was imminent. After a few days of selection, several merchants that were favored by Li were invited to the palace. The appointed time had arrived, and Li was rushing to meet them.
In the study room of the Prince's mansion, three businessmen sat upright. The atmosphere was awkward. As the saying goes, those in the same trade are enemies. All the businessmen in Chang 'an City were now eyeing the fat meat of shampoo. Which businessman did not want to monopolize this market? But Li Yin obviously did not want to let one person take all the food, so they had no choice.
"Sixth Prince!" Tong Nian was the first to stand up and bow. He was the proudest of the three merchants. With Li Ke's relationship, he believed that the Prince of Liang would give him the biggest piece of meat.
"Sixth Highness!" "Sixth Highness," the other two also stood up and bowed when they saw Li Yin enter.
"I haven't asked for your names yet!"”
"I am Wang Anzhi, and I am in the spice business.”
"I am Liu Yuanxing, and I am in the rouge business.”
Tong Nian was a merchant who profiteered. Li Yin had already known about it from Li Ke, so he didn't ask.
" Everyone knows what shampoo is, so I won't say more. I chose you because of your reputation and wealth in Chang 'an. I'll let you know first. The purchase price of the Royal Palace is 200 yuan per bottle, so the price will only be high and not low. Now, there are 20,000 bottles of shampoo stored in the palace. How much you can eat depends on your wealth. I wonder if you can take them?”
"Don't worry, Sixth Prince, there's absolutely no problem. It's very easy for me to eat it alone!”Tong Nian's words made the other two people glare at him angrily.
Li Yin smiled, understanding that 4,000 taels of silver was just a small number to them. He continued,"But let me say this first. The shampoo comes from the Liang residence and concerns the Liang residence's reputation. After I hand the shampoo over to you to sell, if you do anything to cheat the buyer, don't blame me for cutting off your source of income.”
"I don't dare!" The three of them said in unison.
After discussing some details with a few people, the three of them left with satisfaction. Tomorrow, they could directly trade with Jin Daqian and deliver the goods.
The shampoo matter had come to an end, and Li Yin was much more relaxed. He just had to wait for his wallet to slowly expand.
In the evening, Li Yin gathered all the servants in the palace and asked Jin Daqian to purchase some ingredients. He set up a few tables in the open space of the palace. In this day and age, people still had to be roped in. Otherwise, who would work for you sincerely?
The setting sun was like blood, dyeing the Liang Residence red. In a spacious open space, four large round tables were filled with all kinds of dishes. Among them, there was no lack of meat that servants rarely ate. Waves of fragrance filled the air. The servants and maids standing together stood together nervously, swallowing their saliva. No one dared to sit at the table.
From Jin Daqian, they found out that there was a banquet in the palace tonight. Cheng Huailiang and Lu Boyan didn't treat themselves as outsiders at all. They had occupied a table early in the morning and had a shameless look on their faces. They kept shouting for wine.
When Li Yin saw this, he really wanted to kick these two guys out of the palace.
When the food and wine were served, Li Yin asked everyone to sit down and said,"Everyone has worked hard these past few days. The banquet today is also to reward everyone. Everyone also knows that the shampoo has made the prince's mansion earn a sum of money. The expenses of the prince's mansion have been relaxed a little. With the remaining money to set up these few tables of wine and dishes, the prince's mansion will have other businesses in the future.”
"Please rest assured, Your Highness. We will do our best!”Jin Daqian and Accountant Gao took the lead and stood up. The others also respectfully acknowledged.
Cheng Huailiang and Lu Boyan looked at Li with a strange look. They felt that he was different from before. However, after a full bowl of wine, the two of them immediately forgot about this.
Everyone was eating with relish, but Li Yin rarely moved his chopsticks. Although the food was sumptuous, the color, fragrance, and taste were not to his liking. After eating a few mouthfuls, he gradually could not stand such food. However, everyone looked satisfied, so he could not say anything. To them, this was already a delicious meal.
The ingredients, auxiliary ingredients, and cooking method were all problems. Li Yin felt a little emotional. After all, this was the Tang Dynasty. The cooking method was very simple. Basically, it was the same as boiling, stewing, and burning. There was no such thing as frying vegetables. The ingredients were also very simple, let alone the ingredients.
"Your Highness, let me toast you!" Cheng Huailiang didn't inherit anything else, but he inherited Cheng Yaojin's addiction to alcohol.
Looking at the turbid rice wine in the wine glass, Li Yin picked it up and took a sip. It was similar to the alcoholic beverages of the 21st century. It was sour and did not suit his appetite at all. This was the best wine in the Tang Dynasty at the moment. It was sold at the price of 120 wen per jar.
"Rotten wine!" After drinking a few mouthfuls, Li put down the cup heavily, causing everyone to look sideways. Jin Daqian quickly ran over." Your Highness, is this wine not to your liking?”
Cheng Huailiang gulped down a few large bowls." This is the famous Apricot Fragrance, the best wine in Chang 'an. His Highness used to like this wine the most.”
Lu Boyan used his mouth that had lost two front teeth to bite on the drumstick. He mumbled,""Yes, yes!"
"Wait a few days, I'll let you understand what wine is!”Li Yin chuckled and said.
The banquet ended happily, and everyone went back satisfied. Only Sima Tu, who had just reported in the morning, remained at the dining table to sweep the leftovers. Li Yin finally understood why this guy only wanted to eat his fill. He could eat six servings of food alone.
Cheng Huailiang and Lu Boyan went back to rest. These two guys drank quite a bit and were drunk. After the crowd dispersed, Li Yin took a walk in the prince's residence. At the same time, he fell into deep thought.
Completely improving the living standards of the Tang Dynasty was not something that could be done just by selling modern things here. The input of advanced technology was fundamental. Moreover, buying shampoo back and forth was already tiring enough for him. Next, he was going to bring some crafts and equipment here.
Taking advantage of everyone's rest, Li Yin returned to his old residence and turned on the Internet. He began to search for technologies suitable for development in the Tang Dynasty and printed them out. He took them back and slowly studied them. He was not an omnipotent technology tree that could create anything.
Thinking of the problem of wine, he searched for a boiler on Taobao. This was a necessary facility for the production of high-purity wine. If he wanted to monopolize the market, he would have to rely on this equipment that others could not easily copy.
He opened the webpage and saw that there were many manufacturers selling retorts on the Internet. There were all kinds of models. In the end, Li Yin chose six copper retorts. The reason why he chose copper retorts was to reduce the suspicion of others. After all, the copper casting process of the Tang Dynasty was relatively perfect, and he could explain it calmly.
After surfing the internet for a while, Li Yin went to the city and shuttled back and forth between the two worlds. It really made him feel like he was in a dream. After shopping on the street for a while, Li Yin bought a few bottles of white wine and went back. In this world, he no longer had any ties, but in that world, everything was about to begin.
