Ten days later.
Zhuque Street, the most prosperous area in Chang 'an, was bustling with people.
In the middle of Vermilion Bird Street, a restaurant named Tang Ice Cellar quietly opened.
The opening of the restaurant did not have any publicity. No one was invited to watch the ceremony. There were even no agents outside the restaurant to attract business. It looked extremely deserted and did not fit in with the lively Vermillion Bird Street.
At the window of a restaurant on the second floor across the street from the Tang Ice Cellar.
"Sigh, I'm really crazy. I really thought that the Tang's ice cellar that Yuanjing mentioned was so powerful that it could really earn a lot of money every day! There wasn't even a broker. It didn't look like a new business at all. Instead, it looked like a restaurant that was about to close down.”
Li Shi Min looked at the deserted Tang Ice Cellar and shook his head.
The reason why he went out of the palace today was for the cold drink shop that Li Yuanjing had mentioned ten days ago.
That day, after Li Shiming returned to the palace, he carefully recalled Li Yuanjing's words. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Li Yuanjing's words were not without meaning. The business prospects of the so-called cold drink shop were very promising.
Therefore, Li Shiming had deliberately paid attention to the opening time of the cold drink shop mentioned by Li Yuanjing.
This!
When he heard that the Tang Ice Cellar would open at noon today, Li Shimin specially arrived at the scene 25 minutes earlier to see the so-called booming business of Li Yuanjing.
"Your Majesty, His Highness the Martial King is a martial artist after all. It's normal that he doesn't know the way of doing business!”Eunuch Huang smiled.
"Sigh, forget it, forget it. This time, this one has indeed made a big deal out of it. I reckon that this Great Tang icehouse will close in a few days.”Li Shi Min shook his head and left with a group of guards.
But Li Shi Min didn't know.
At this moment.
Many interesting things happened in the restaurants of Chang 'an almost at the same time.
The Returning Forest Residence was a restaurant in Chang 'an that was popular with the nobles.
"Bang!" A well-dressed young master slammed the table and said angrily,"Waiter, come over here!”
"Sir, what's wrong?" A servant hurriedly ran over.
"It's such a hot day, why isn't the wine you served me iced?？”The young master seemed to be drunk as he roared.
"Sir, you drank too much!" The servant hurriedly explained," The wine in our shop is all cold wine taken out from the cellar. In the entire Chang 'an City, there is only one shop like our shop where all the wine is taken out from the cellar first. Most of the wine in the restaurant is kept at room temperature. It is hot to drink!"”
"Then can't you put some ice cubes in the wine, or just put the wine in the ice cellar to chill?”The young master chattered on.
"Young Master, it seems that you are really drunk. It's the summer of July. It's a hot day. Where is the ice?”The servant laughed.
"You mean you don't have iced wine in your shop?？”The young master glared at him and questioned.
"Yes, I am! In the entire Chang 'an City, I'm afraid that only the Emperor and those aristocratic families and nobles can be so extravagant as to serve iced wine, let alone our shop!”The servant said.
"Nonsense!"
"I just drank a mouthful of iced wine!" The young master said angrily.”
As soon as he said this!
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Everyone who was drinking and enjoying themselves looked over at the same time.
"Young master, it seems that you are really drunk!”The servant laughed.
"Bullshit!"
The 'drunk' young master was furious.""This Young Master swears on my head that everything I said is true. If it wasn't for that place, where a pot of wine is sold for 300 yuan, this Young Master wouldn't have come to this place where there isn't even iced wine!”
"Brother, where is the place you mentioned where a pot of wine is sold for 300 yuan?”A pale-faced scholar at the neighboring table couldn't help but ask.
"Great Tang Ice Cellar!"
The 'drunk' young master said,""That Tang Ice Cellar, just by entering the shop, without ordering anything, you have to pay 200 yuan for the air-conditioning fee. The most ordinary bottle of iced wine costs 300 yuan, but I heard that as long as you spend five strings of money on the day, you can avoid the air-conditioning fee!”
"Air-conditioning fee?" The pale-faced scholar was curious.
"Actually, this Young Master doesn't understand what that so-called air-conditioning fee is. However, from the moment I stepped into that Tang icehouse, I felt as if I was in spring and autumn, and my entire body felt comfortable!”
"There's such a place?"
For a moment, the eyes of all the rich and powerful people drinking in the Returning Forest Residence lit up.
Similar conversations were heard in all the restaurants in Chang 'an. The content was similar. They all said that a restaurant called Tang Ice Cellar was open. It was cool inside and one could drink iced wine. Of course, the prerequisite was that one had money.
To these rich and powerful young masters and tycoons, money was just a worldly possession. They could have as much as they wanted. They did not care at all.
Hence, he decided to do it.
An hour after Li Shi Min left.
One by one, the rich and powerful arrived at the restaurant called the Great Tang Ice Cellar and rushed into it.
As soon as they stepped into the shop, a cool breeze blew against their faces. All the rich and powerful people's eyes were filled with joy.
The Great Tang Ice Cellar was divided into three levels.
The first floor was a public hall with tables and chairs. In the entire hall, every few steps, one could see a basin of ice that emitted cold air. On the walls were shelves, and on the shelves, there were also basins of ice.
The second and third floors were private rooms specially provided for dignitaries.
There were a total of 20 private rooms on the second floor, and the fee for each private room was Yiguan money. Cough cough, Yiguan money for two hours!
There were a total of five private rooms on the third floor, and each private room cost five strings of money. Five strings of money for two hours!
Not to mention Li Yuanjing being black-hearted, how could he be black-hearted when one was willing to hit and the other was willing to suffer!
In the evening.
The Martial Imperial Manor.
"Your Highness, this afternoon's income has been calculated!”Niu Dahu said.
"Tell me, how much is it in total?" Li Yuanjing opened his eyes and asked.”
"A total of 400,000 copper coins! Among them, the air-conditioning fee plus the income from the 25 private rooms was 150,000 copper coins, and the wine income was 250,000 copper coins!”
"250,000 yuan of wine revenue, and 10,000 yuan of wine cost!" Niu Dahu continued. Apart from that, he also had to deduct the cost of 50,000 tons of saltpeter!”
"Earning 340,000 copper coins a day, tsk, royal brother, oh royal brother, is this the so-called little money you speak of?”
Li Yuanjing grinned playfully.
Li Yuanjing could already imagine that Li Shiming's face would turn ugly when he found out about the exaggerated speed of Tang's Ice Cellar's wealth accumulation!
