The weather was a little hot, and the willows hung low.
Yang Yi took a sip of the iced sour plum soup and felt very comfortable.
A few days ago, he discovered that there was saltpeter in the market. However, this thing was relatively unpopular and ordinary people did not need it.
Yang Yi bought a lot of them and used saltpeter to make ice.
This was Xia Tian's correct way of opening it!
Just as he was enjoying himself, a person suddenly appeared in front of him.
Yang Yi was stunned. He took a look and saw that it was Lady Wu.
He cupped his hands and said,"Sister Wu, what brings you here today?"
He was a little nervous. He had played a fool with her sister previously. Was he here to denounce her?
Wu Zetian didn't notice his expression. Instead, she glanced at the iced sour plum soup in his hand.
"Eh, how did you make such a refreshing Sour Plum Juice?”
Yang Yi said matter-of-factly,"Use ice!"
"Ice?" Wu Zetian asked curiously.
Ice was a scarce commodity for ordinary people. Ordinary people could not get their hands on it.
Shangguan Wan 'er could tell that her Empress was rather curious, so she said,""Ice? Mr. Yang, how did you get the ice?”
"Saltpeter," Yang Yi said.
"Saltpeter?" The two girls were stunned.
Yang Yi began to explain the principle of making ice with saltpeter.
Wu Zetian was shocked when she heard this. She didn't expect this ordinary saltpeter to have such an effect.
She looked at Yang Yi with approval," I didn't expect Young Master Yang to know so much. He's really a genius.”
"Genius?" Yang Yi shook his head. What genius? I'm just using other people's time visiting brothels and flirting with girls to study.”
Wu Zetian was speechless.
Yang Yi smiled and said," Actually, this saltpeter ice making business is also a big business. How about it? Sister Wu, do you want to cooperate?"”
"Young Master Yang actually trusts me so much?" Wu Zetian said with a smile that was not a smile. You've already told me the principle of saltpeter making ice. Aren't you afraid that I'll ditch you and do it alone?”
Yang Yi's expression didn't change," The first time I saw Big Sister Wu, I knew that Big Sister Wu was someone who would do great things. If you're so short-sighted, it's just a saltpeter ice making technique. This Yang can afford to lose it.”
An ordinary person like him would inevitably be swallowed up by even greater capital if he started such a near-monopoly business.
However, the woman in front of him was different. Yang Yi observed carefully. The silk that this woman was wearing was definitely not something that could be made with ordinary craftsmanship. With his eyesight, it could be called a work of art.
Therefore, this person's identity was either rich or noble.
Moreover, doing business was a troublesome thing. He was too lazy to do it. If he could collect money lying down, he would never sit down.
Wu Zetian said," That makes sense. There are indeed some profits in making saltpeter ice, but I still have to go back and think about it carefully. I'll send someone to give you an answer later. If it's done, I'll give you a share of the profits."”
Yang Yi smiled." That's good.”
At this moment, Wu Zetian coughed lightly and said,""Yesterday, my daughter was mischievous and came here to cause you a lot of trouble.”
"My daughter?" Yang Yi was stunned." Isn't that your sister?"”
Wu Zetian smiled and shook her head.
Yang Yi rubbed his nose. No wonder he felt that something was strange. He didn't expect it to be a daughter instead of a sister.
He saw Wu Zetian looking at him with a faint smile, and his expression was slightly awkward.
He had teased his daughter yesterday, so it was inevitable that he would feel embarrassed today.
Yang Yi coughed lightly and said,"So it's your daughter. No wonder she looks like a flower and the moon. She's like a sinking fish and falling geese. She's almost catching up to Sister Wu…"
Zhangsun Wan 'er stared at Yang Yi with her mouth agape. She had never seen such a shameless person before!
Wu Zetian was amused and revealed a smile. She had to be the perfect queen in the palace. Only here could she find a trace of comfort and happiness.
Wu Zetian smiled." It's a waste of your talent to stay in the marketplace with your skills. You really don't want to work for the court?"”
Yang Yi shook his head like a rattle-drum." I'm not going, I'm not going.”
This was Wu Zetian's second invitation, but she did not expect to be rejected again.
Wu Zetian wasn't angry and said calmly,"Everyone wants to be an official and make a fortune. Why don't you want it?”
Yang Yi chuckled." Sister Wu, do you want to hear the truth or lies?”
Wu Zetian was stunned." There's even a lie?”
"Of course." Yang Yi nodded.
"Listen to the lies first."”
Yang Yi's expression was solemn." Scholars like us should serve the country and the people. We should do our best until we die. How can we bow down for this little bit of money? Moreover, the imperial court should hold the imperial examination in an upright manner and not go through the back door. Otherwise, how could he be worthy of his many years of sage books?”
Wu Zetian's expression was strange," Where's the truth?”
Yang Yi smacked his lips and said," The situation in the Imperial Court is chaotic. It's better not to get involved in the muddy water at this time."”
He did not care about the person in front of him. At this time, he would not be punished for his words. Besides, bragging was illegal.
There were many street politicians in the future, and he was not one of them.
Moreover, he was quite close to this Wu Niangzi. Out of some small thoughts in his heart, he couldn't help but have the impulse to pretend.
Wu Zetian raised her eyebrows. How chaotic?"
Yang Yi raised his eyebrows and pointed to the sky." Now that His Majesty has been living in the palace for a long time, his body is weak. The Queen of Heaven is in power. These civil and military officials are afraid of His Majesty's majesty. On the surface, they obey His Majesty, but in their hearts, they don't know how to evaluate him.”
Shangguan Wan 'er's eyes widened. This…Yang Yi really dared to say that.
"What's your evaluation?" Wu Zetian asked lightly.”
Yang Yi shook his head. The family is poor. Is that okay?"
It was updated steadily every day, with at least 10,000 words!
