Chapter five hundred and eighty sixth: slander the emperor
Seeing Ye Chunqiu smile, Sun Qi paused and continued: "Now the freight cost is much more valuable than this crystal. Fortunately, he borrowed the canal ship. In the past month, there have been more and more orders for various advance payments. In the first month, he made a net profit of more than 10,000 taels of silver."
Sun Qi didn't expect that there was such easy money in this world. He has now become a businessman and is the most clear about the various costs, expenses, and net profits.
Since he said that he had started, he said, "This is just the beginning, so I thought to make a blacksmith while it's hot. In the past two months, I have to recruit more craftsmen. In addition, I have to build more stoves. What do you think in Chunqiu?"
Ye Chunqiu took a sip of tea and said slowly: "I don't understand the operation matters very well. Naturally, my uncle will make his own decisions. But I have a few ways to improve molds here. My uncle will take them over later and ask the craftsmen to try it."
Sun Qihe nodded, and Ye Chunqiu warned again: "The formula of crystal will actually be understood sooner or later. However, the real unique method of this crystal workshop is in this high-temperature furnace. As long as other people's furnaces do not reach the furnace temperature of the crystal workshop, they will never be able to burn crystals. It is good for my uncle to build more high-temperature furnaces, but he must be more careful and keep the manufacturing drawings carefully."
After hearing this, Sun Qi nodded solemnly.
Seeing that the crystal opened up, Ye Chunqiu felt relaxed. These... are really a waste of money. Once the demand increases in the future, the crystal workshop can be manufactured on a more scale, compressing the cost, using one-tenth of the cost of porcelain, selling the price of porcelain, and monopolizing the operation, which is not an exaggeration to say that it is a huge profit.
Just want to dilute the cost, you need to improve the yield rate. If you want to maintain a high price, you will inevitably have better quality.
The improvement plans of Ye Chunqiu and several molds are all improved according to actual conditions. Although the effect is not progressing rapidly, it is already the peak that this era can achieve.
The next morning, Ye Chunqiu entered the palace. When everyone heard about Ye Chunqiu's duel, they were indifferent. Even Master Zheng was used to it in the waiting room.
By the way... this should finally be a habit. If Ye Chunqiu doesn't cause any trouble, everyone will feel a little uncomfortable.
After sitting for a while, an eunuch came to find Ye Chunqiu to see the warm pavilion. When Ye Chunqiu arrived at the warm pavilion, he found that Liu Jin and Zhang Yong were also there.
So Ye Chunqiu entered the warm pavilion silently, and saw Zhu Houzhao siping tea with great enthusiasm, saying, "There is so much silver collected by guards in various places this year?"
Liu Jin smiled happily and said, "Aren't this all thanks to Your Majesty's great blessing? The 430,000 taels of silver are the result of Your Majesty's efforts to govern."
Work hard to manage...
It is said that the eunuchs who lost their family, although their main responsibility was to collect mineral taxes, Ye Chunqiu heard that Zhu Houzhao was praised for his hard work, just as if Liu Jin had no hesitation to put a basin on Zhu Houzhao's head, which was strange.
But Zhu Houzhao was very happy. He was a financial fan and said happily: "I... of course I have some credit, but it's thanks to Liu Baoban?"
Liu Jin looked grateful and shed tears: "Your Majesty is wise, Your Majesty is working hard to govern, but he refuses to make merits. How many emperors of all dynasties can do it? In the vast world, I have read through history books, but I have never seen such a wise lord. I have only heard of this emperor that all the emperors put gilds on their faces, but Your Majesty is putting gilds on their faces. I really... I really don't know what to say. I must be loyal and share your worries with you so that I can repay your Majesty's kindness and honor."
His "heartfelt words" made Zhu Houzhao laugh. It seemed that at this moment, even Zhu Houzhao was floating, and suddenly felt that he still had many strengths. Although he was sometimes hustle and humble.
"..." Ye Chunqiu felt a little disgusted after hearing what Liu Jin said, but he couldn't help but whisper: "Have Eunuch Liu browsed through history?"
In fact, this is not Ye Chunqiu who really wants to tear down this station. It’s really disgusting. It’s a shameless example. If anyone else wants to complain about it.
Moreover, Ye Chunqiu was unable to help himself, because His Majesty's behavior was recorded by special people, so he would naturally send it to the Hanlin Academy's Literature and History Museum to compile and record it in the Ming Dynasty.
In other words, in this warm pavilion, in addition to the emperor, Liu Jin, Zhang Yong and himself, there is also a corner of the eunuch who is responsible for writing. Every word and action must be recorded. Unless the emperor deliberately retreats him or enters the inner palace, under normal circumstances, the emperor's behavior in the outside court is traceable.
But Liu Jin is here to show his charm. If his words are passed to the Museum of Literature and History today, Ye Chunqiu will remain indifferent here. If this file was sent to the Museum of Literature and History and was found by those who are interested, there will inevitably be people who think that Ye Chunqiu, the Hanlin who is waiting for the imperial edict, is not upright enough.
When Liu Jin heard Ye Chunqiu ask him if he had read through the history books, he immediately glanced at Ye Chunqiu coldly with the corner of his eyes, but he smiled. Seeing that Zhu Houzhao had no response to Ye Chunqiu's "demolition", he smiled and said, "Although Ye Xiu, although he has not read much since childhood, this history books have been read. Why... Did we say it wrong? Is there any emperor in this world who is more wise than the current emperor?"
He said, while scanning Ye Chunqiu with his sharp eyes, smiling even brighter.
Ye Chunqiu Ben just said a gossip.
But it made Liu Jin angry. Someone called him a eunuch, and he could tolerate it even if he said he was a eunuch. But you said that we were not educated, and we were also a lie supervisor. Not to mention that we could compare with you Hanlin. Today, we are a great writer among these eunuchs. Why is our family intruding against you? Are you going to destroy the situation?
Now he dug a hole. If Ye Chunqiu dares to say that His Majesty is not wise enough, hehe...
Ye Chunqiu said with a stern face: "There are countless wise kings in ancient times..."
Liu Jin immediately angrily scolded: "Comrade Ye Xiu, you are too presumptuous. No matter how many wise kings have been in ancient times, no one has ever been wiser than the present. You are slandering the emperor..."
Ye Chunqiu was ashamed, Liu Jin was quite good at doing things.
However, Zhu Houzhao's expression was not right. He always felt that he was very sincere to Ye Chunqiu, but listening to Ye Chunqiu's meaning and Liu Fan's explanation, no matter how he looked at him, Ye Chunqiu didn't like him much. Could it be that Ye Chunqiu is the same as those ministers, who are respectful to him on the surface, but in fact he doesn't look down on him?
