The reason why Zhu Cijiu came out for a private visit was not a whim. In fact, he had long wanted to come and see the living standards of the people in person, but he had never been able to take time.

In a huge empire, even if he doesn't have to review memorials, he still has a lot of things to deal with in a day, and he also has to accompany two precious sons, so it's difficult for him to take time out.

That day, the capital and local governments were on holiday. The two precious sons were tired of playing and fell asleep in the afternoon. Only then did he have time to come out to take a look.

Since it was a private visit, he naturally could not bring too many guards, so he only brought Cao Huachun and Wang Zhengnan with him, while other Jinyiwei and Dongchang masters were wearing casual clothes to guard the police along the way. He was like a rich young man, and he slowly walked around on East Chang'an Street with two followers.

He visited many shops along the way, learned about the prices of various goods, and secretly observed the purchasing ability of ordinary people. He even secretly followed several ordinary people who came out to buy New Year's goods. After walking for a long time, he wanted to see what they bought during the New Year.

Through an afternoon observation, he concluded that the people in the capital were really rich. Most people bought New Year’s goods worth more than ten or twenty taels without blinking, and even the more rich, they could take out dozens of taels.

This consumption capacity is already quite terrifying. You should know that the population of the Ming Empire is now more than 200 million. If every ordinary citizen can take out ten taels, that is more than 2 billion taels!

Of course, the people in the capital must be richer than the people in the local area, but they can spend more than ten or twenty taels of money to buy New Year's goods, which is enough to prove that their consumption capacity is far more than that.

Zhu Cijing became happier and happier as he watched the trip. Before he knew it, he followed the abortion to the four major general accounts. It was almost evening and he was hungry. He simply found the largest restaurant to see what the rich people eat and drink.

However, as soon as he entered the Chang'an restaurant, he found another problem. He had never eaten it outside. What kind of dishes should I order?

When he asked Cao Huachun and Wang Zhengnan, the two of them shook their heads in a daze. Cao Huachun basically ate in the palace, and Wang Zhengnan basically ate and lived with the Jinyiwei. These two people had little time to leave his sight, so they had no time to come out to eat and drink!

Zhu Cijing was so moved that he was so moved that the two of them spent almost all their thoughts on doing things for themselves. Wang Zhengnan didn't even get married and stayed with him all day long!

He decided to treat these two people well and do Wang Zhengnan's marriage as soon as possible.

As for this order, it doesn't matter what to order. Of course, there were foodies I ordered at that time. When he changed his mind, he immediately thought of Luo Yangxing. This guy eats the same food as Maitreya Buddha. He is definitely a foodie. It's not far from the four major numbers. So I'd just send someone to spread it to him.

In this way, Luo Yangxing was invited over.

Luo Yangxing looked at the menu pushed by the emperor and was stunned for a moment. He could eat and could eat, but he didn't know what the emperor liked to eat.

After nervously flipping through the menu, he finally couldn't help asking: "This, Mr. Huang, what do you want to eat?"

Zhu Cijiu looked at this menu carefully. The price of the dishes is not outrageous. There are some money and some taels, and the highest one is only more than ten taels. You can just throw a hundred taels of dragon coins and you can order a table. He has a large stack of hundreds of taels of dragon coins in his arms.

He said indifferently: "You order whatever you want, you can get a few dollars, a few taels, and a few more than ten taels. Just pick up the delicious food."

Luo Yangxing dared not click casually. He turned to the most expensive page, thought about it, and asked carefully: "Does Mr. Huang eat fish?"

Zhu Cijiong nodded and said helplessly: "Eat."

Luo Yangxing immediately suggested: "Why do you want to steam Songjiang perch? This is the best fish here."

If it tastes delicious, just serve it. What do you always ask? Zhu Cijiu is helpless. There is no way. Who said he is the emperor? He had to nodded again and said, "Yeah, then let's have one."

Luo Yangxing is indeed a foodie. He was opened by his brother-in-law in Chang'an restaurant. He had basically eaten all the delicious dishes. If he had asked him to make the decision, he would probably order it without a stick of incense.

But the emperor is here, how dare he make a decision? The two of them asked and answered each other, and it took nearly a quarter of an hour to finish the ticking.

Ten dishes can almost be filled with a table of music. Zhu Cijing didn’t want to waste it. As a emperor, if you invite a guest, you can’t be less.

At this time, the sky gradually became darker, and the business of Chang'an restaurants became better and better because there were also electric lights here!

Zhu Cijiu looked at the bright lobby and couldn't help but admire, "Is this restaurant owner good at it? Before the lights were sold to the public, he installed them and could still turn on the electricity. Not bad, not bad."

When Luo Yangxing heard this, cold sweat broke out. The emperor was not talking nonsense!

He struggled for a while and still said, "Emperor, Mr. Huang, this restaurant was actually my brother-in-law. I saw that he was idle all day, so I simply paid some money to help him open the restaurant. I found someone to install the electric lights for him, and I also found someone to pull the wires for him. I also saw that the restaurant was almost dim at night, and the business would be good if it was connected to the electric lights, so I made a good decision to let someone install the electric lights."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Cijiu looked at the guy curiously for a while, then slapped his face and suddenly said, "It turns out it's you, I'll say, where did the common people come from? Your head is good, this idea is very good."

At this moment, Luo Yangxing was so scared that his sweat fell off, but the emperor did not seem to have to deal with him like this.

He mustered up the courage and asked weakly: "Young Master Huang, don't you blame me?"

Zhu Cijing shook his head and said, "Why do I blame you? You have not become an official again. This is not considered using power for personal gain. Moreover, I was about to set up an electrical appliance company, which is just a seller of electric lights. Isn't this a good live advertisement?"

Luo Yangxing couldn't help but sweat when he heard this. Fortunately, the emperor was not talking nonsense.

Zhu Cijing realized that this guy was sweating profusely, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Hot, just take off your coat. What a skinny thing? It's really funny to wear it on you."

Upon hearing this, Luo Yangxing quickly took off his sable coat and smiled and said, "This is sable. It's a bit inappropriate to wear thick people like me, but women are pretty and very warm when wearing them."

Sable fur? High-end goods. Zhu Cijing curiously reached out to come over. When he touched it, it was really soft and warm. However, such a big coat, I am afraid it would require a lot of sable fur. He asked curiously: "How did so many sable fur come from?"

Luo Yangxing explained: "These sables were purchased from Siberia, which is not very rare there, but when it comes to Beijing, it is different. In the past, they were all worth thousands of taels per piece, but they were not as good as that. Erjue and others have purchased a lot of them there. They want to set up a workshop to do this, but they are afraid that the sales volume is not good. So, let me make up a conclusion, and I can't make up my mind. Mr. Huang, what do you think?"

This is a hidden flattery, which means that the emperor knows everything.

However, Zhu Cijing really ate this. He had also heard of this sable coat in later generations. At least tens of thousands of dollars, one thousand taels is about tens of thousands of yuan. It is not expensive. The Ming Dynasty was in its prosperous era. Are you still afraid that people could not afford it?

Zhu Cijing nodded complacently and said, "Yeah, this idea is very good. Don't worry about it. In this prosperous era, you will never have to worry about sales."
