"The Second Prince has already explained it in detail. We just need to follow the Second Prince's arrangements!”Zhangsun Wuji looked at the envelope and said without hesitation.
As the Great Tang's Minister of Revenue, the big shot who controlled the national treasury, he was deeply immersed in the way of business. He could tell at a glance that Li Chufeng's plan was flawless!
"That's good!" Li Shi Min nodded his head, but his expression was a little awkward. He didn't just want to hold this auction well, he also wanted to scam more money!
"Then, the point is, is there any way for us to deduct some money?”
Fang Xuanling knew what Li Shiming was thinking, so he didn't waste any words and asked directly.
"Naturally!" Zhangsun Wuji stroked his beard and spoke with pride. Li Chufeng's plan was flawless, and it was only for the sake of the auction. He didn't even suspect that someone would line their own pockets!
Li Chufeng was speechless. We've f * cking rebelled together, and there's still someone who's thinking about my money?
"Second Prince's plan is to spread rumors and spread the Glazed Buddha Statue. Spreading rumors requires money. As for the exact amount, Second Prince doesn't know.”
Zhangsun Wuji said with a smile. To put it simply, it was not easy to be a clean official. Wasn't it easy to be a corrupt official? It was all over as long as he was greedy!
"Hahaha! That's right! That's right, Feng 'er doesn't know how much we spent. We just need to report it to him!”Li Shi Min clapped his hands and said excitedly.
Fang Xuanling, on the other hand, frowned slightly as he shook his head at Zhangsun Wuji. He said indifferently,""Lord Zhangsun, you have forgotten one thing. Right now, we are spending our own money, not the Second Prince's. What we are thinking about is the money after selling the Coloured Glass Statue!”
"What?" Zhangsun Wuji's eyes widened as he looked at Fang Xuanling in surprise. He then shifted his gaze to Li Shiming and Du Ruhui. Seeing the two of them nod, he said helplessly,""So, the Second Prince hasn't even earned a single cent, and you're already thinking about his money?”
Li Shiming, Du Ruhui, and Fang Xuanling lowered their heads in shame. As their fathers and uncles, it was indeed not good for them to think about such things!
"Hey!" Zhangsun Wuji naturally wouldn't say much. After all, Li Shiming was the emperor. As a minister, a word of surprise was enough. The main thing was to help the emperor solve the problem!
"I need to think about it!" Zhangsun Wuji spoke again.
"Ancestors, think about it carefully. There's no hurry!”Li Shiming said quickly. He knew that it was difficult to make money before he even started to earn money. He couldn't force it!
He could only look at Zhangsun Wuji with anticipation, hoping that he could give him a solution!
However, Zhangsun Wuji was indeed an old fox. He did not disappoint Li Shiming's expectations. In just a few minutes, the corners of his mouth curved as he said with a smile.
"I have an idea!"
"What is it?"
"The Second Prince's plan is to spread rumors and invite dignitaries. Spreading rumors obviously won't get you any money, but inviting dignitaries is quite doable!”
Zhangsun Wuji said proudly. He was really too awesome to think of such a method!
"Uh, what's there to do? Wouldn't it be enough for the high-ranking officials and aristocratic families to send someone to inform them?”
Li Shiming scratched his head, not quite understanding what Zhangsun Wuji meant.
Du Ruhui's eyes lit up. He cupped his hands and said,"Your Majesty, it's naturally easy for you to invite a high ranking official or noble family, but it's not easy for an ordinary merchant to invite them!”
"Yes, yes, yes, yes!" Fang Xuanling nodded repeatedly. He had figured out the crux of the matter." If an ordinary merchant wants to meet someone with status, they can only give gifts layer by layer and wait for someone to introduce them! Lord Zhangsun must be talking about the operation here, right?”
"No!" Zhangsun Wuji shook his head." I've already spent the money on the gifts and introductions. How am I going to scam the money from the auction?"”
"Hiss!" Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling sucked in a breath of cold air and scratched their heads in confusion. They didn't quite understand what Zhangsun Wuji meant.
Li Shiming slammed the table and looked at Zhangsun Wuji.
"Ancestors, stop playing riddles. Tell me in detail how you tricked me!”
