Chapter 173 Business Affairs

"How many days will Ye Tao go to Danyang?" Tan Xiaopei asked by chance.

"Your Majesty, you will be about three to four days." Li Sishu, who was standing beside him, replied casually.

The environment they are in has made Li Sishu feel extra energetic and keeping himself serious. Because, facing a king who is taking a bath, it is difficult for him to keep himself serious at all times. Where they are, it is a completely Persian-style bathhouse that is unique in time and space.

Because of the extraterritorial style, it was unexpectedly loved by most customers. The newly built bathhouse was no longer decorated with the Middle Eastern and European style, but completely used the almost original Persian style. The bathhouse designed by Persian craftsmen and supervised by them looked very simple. The bathhouse was divided into two parts, partly an ordinary pool, built of marble, with two giant lion-faced statues on both sides to decorate the pillars, which looked simple and mighty.

Part of it is a sauna room. The sauna room is round, and the walls are decorated with reliefs of heroic epics. Against the walls are a circle of chairs made of fragrant wood. In the middle is a stone pot with red pebbles as the steam generator, with fragrant wood shelves on it. On one side of the room, there is a semicircular basin that always maintains a certain amount of water. The water is left from the mouth of the lion-head stone sculpture above the basin and falls into the pool, which always maintains a half-full appearance based on the siphon principle, and the excess water is discharged.

When this bathhouse was just opened, all the people from Danyang, who had long been attracted by the exotic style and diverse services of Dalang Taosha, had visited it, but this small bathhouse seemed to intentionally combine the requirements of bathing and meditation, and that rough and solemn style could attract generals who had led the army.

At the beginning, everyone didn't know what a sauna was, and the people who came to this bath were just taking a bath. When someone finally couldn't help but try a sauna, they immediately became obsessed with this extremely comfortable experience. Then... one thing passed through ten thousand and ten, and it became a secret that was known to all nationwide. And when Zhuo Mang also tried it with his subordinates, he couldn't help but convey this feeling to Tan Xiaopei... Of course, Zhuo Mang might be the only person who has the courage to talk about his bathing experience with Tan Xiaopei.

When Tan Xiaopei tried this bath in a very quiet style, he couldn't help but come again and again. When the weather got colder and the business of Dalang Sha was getting hotter, he realized that if sometimes coincidental, he could even hold a court meeting in Dalang Sha... there were not a few people missing.

Tan Xiaopei is naturally not the kind of nonsensical lord who finds opportunities to meet ministers naked, and the ministers in the court have no intention of communicating with Tan Xiaopei what kind of services they are going to enjoy. But after a while, the business of wading the sand is getting better and better. Tan Xiaopei naturally knows that as the lord, as the lord, it is all this strange to have, but before the newly built bathhouse in the palace was completed, he was the only one who was there.

"After Ye Tao comes back, he doesn't have to go back to Yunzhou for the time being. If there is anything there, just ask them to send a letter to ask for instructions. He and Xinerdi have been married for a few months. Even if they return to Yunzhou, they will have to come back and make trouble in a short while. It's too troublesome." Tan Xiaopei sighed.

"I can't save you this, I will turn back and give instructions on this matter." Li Sishu replied.

"Old Li. Sometimes, I can't help but think about what would happen if I let Ye Tao do whatever he wants. Hehe. You showed me the report of the Interior Guard. In fact... I just followed the intention of Guan Huan to kill someone. But just those words, those small arrangements almost completely disrupted the original arrangement of Emperor Dao Mingzong in the north of Xiling. It was so exciting." Tan Xiaopei exclaimed: "He said it himself.

It was very easy, at the right time, at the right place, and doing the right things... and the arrangements he had in Yunzhou Jingluofu Road and Bridge Department, except for Xiner, no one could explain why. Everyone waited until they saw the effect before they slowly understood the truth. Xiner joked with me that the big waves pushed the front waves. The front waves died on the beach. Now it seems that although I am not old, I really can't keep up with these young people."

Seeing that Tan Xiaopei was in a good mood, Li Sishu made up his mind and said, "Does Your Majesty think Lord Ye is not dedicated enough? If Lord Ye knows, he must be humiliated."

Tan Xiaopei shook his head and said, "It's not that he doesn't have his heart, but that he only does his heart on his own acre of three-point land. He does his job well. The rest depends on whether anyone or things to motivate him. I, Dongping, has not established the position of prime minister for too long. Ye Tao's qualifications are too shallow, otherwise. I really want to see what kind of things he would do if he came to take charge of the overall situation of Dongping. I have never lacked generals in Dongping. If I take a step back, I still have to go to the battlefield and lead the troops, but I really lack a person who can take charge of the overall situation. At the beginning, I said that if Xin'er was a man and had a good body, she would definitely

However, it is a great master of a generation, because of this. Ye Tao is already quite popular. He understands technology, has some experience in governing the local area, understands military and attaches importance to logistics supply. His talent is outstanding in mobilizing people's hearts. Although he does not have the experience of direct handling, his general idea is still good, and he is better than many ministers in the court. One of his lacks is qualifications, and the other is the ability to prioritize and weigh and dispatch in a variety of matters. ... With the training, ten years later, the position of prime minister may be reset for Ye Tao."

If you are other eunuchs, you will definitely try your best to distract yourself from the topic and avoid getting involved. But Li Sishu is different. In addition to the general manager of the inner steward, he is also an important figure in assisting in the management of the internal security guards. Although he is not good at organizing intelligence activities, he sorts out a large amount of information that seems meaningful or meaningless, and then summarizes various conclusions from it to report to Tan Xiaopei. Whether it is about things or people, Li Sishu has extremely unique insights. This is why Tan Xiaopei mentioned his various ideas in front of Li Sishu.

Li Sishu hesitated for a moment and reminded: "Your Majesty, this arrangement will be equivalent to baking Lord Ye on the fire even after ten years."

Tan Xiaopei looked at Li Sishu strangely, frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Is it not enough for those who are foreign relatives, young, craftsmen and businessmen, without family foundation...?" Li Sishu asked with a smile.

Tan Xiaopei nodded and said, "This is indeed a problem."

"Your Majesty might as well focus on those people around Lord Ye. Perhaps they are not the ones who can take the overall situation, but there are many people who can stand on their own. For example, Du Fengchi, who is in charge of this bathhouse, is becoming more and more interesting in doing business. Now, he is a topical figure in Danyang." Li Sishu said with a smile.

"Oh? The topic character? Why haven't I heard of it?" Tan Xiaopei asked curiously.

"Maybe, this kind of thing makes people laugh, but after all, it is a matter of sensuality... I also occasionally saw it in recent market rumors reports." Li Sishu replied.

The thing is this. Recently, in the two most elegant independent bath units in Dalang Shasha, the water-drawing bamboo tubes that were originally elegant but somewhat dull were replaced with two cloud porcelain statues of female statues. Hot water flowed into the bath from the water jug ​​held by the female statues. Perhaps this is nothing, perhaps it just added some erotic elements to the two independent units that were often used for bathing. Although the two female statues are not naked, the shape that only covers the breasts and private parts is no different from the naked body.

For Guan Shi, the owner of the Yun porcelain industry, this is a very memorable thing for Ye’s Workshop and Jingdezhen, which has become the center of mid-to-high-end porcelain manufacturing in Dongping. Because this is the largest single piece of work in Yun porcelain in history. Guan Shi, a new porcelain kiln jointly supervised by the porcelain craftsman of the former inner palace and the Ye’s Workshop, burned a single piece of work with larger volume, more uniform texture and more detailed touch from the clay sent from Baishicheng. This is an amazing technical achievement.

But for most people who love gossip in Danyang, they pay more attention to the source and forming method of these two great works: real-person inverted model. The two statues are the two most popular brothels in Danyang, Yihongyuan and the top brands of the Nongcui Pavilion, Li Xudan and Xu Tongtong. Moreover, there is only one work. How the real-person inverted model is carried out? The details have been expanded countless times in rumors, but in general, the whole process is not so erotic. Although the physical contact and the intentional teasing of the two top brands inevitably make those young people and those who handle a lot of physical work in the whole process, the young apprentice students blushed and beat their hearts and made a lot of jokes, and the senior craftsmen, including Ye Tao's second senior brother Suo Yong, who are guiding the work, are still relatively smooth and rational.

Du Fengchi never denied that this was his idea, and then he came forward to solve the candidate problem and Jingdezhen solved the technical problem. However, as for how Du Fengchi negotiated with two brothels that had already had a very prosperous business at that time, and persuaded the brothel owners and the top players to agree, that was the "commercial secret". However, after the installation of the two statues was amazing, the reaction was amazing. The business in the bathhouse was solid.

However, it was the icing on the cake, and the two brothels and the two top brands' businesses were the same. The two special units were booked according to the sky. Now, not only reservations have become a problem, but the reservation cards ranked at the top can be regarded as "interesting" favors. Taking the real person to the bathtub and the statue actually compares it, and feels more... and so on, many boring and rich guys are imagining, planning, organizing, and promoting things...
