Chapter 1556 Can you surrender and lose half(1/2)
"Your Majesty, I want to go back to Jiangnan."
"What's good about Jiangnan? I'll turn around and promise you how many buildings you can build in Chang'an City, and you can build whatever you want."
"Your Majesty, Chang'an is boring."
"How can Chang'an be boring? I recently thought of a way to make your silk business popular in Chang'an."
"Well... I still want to..."
"Want to hear it?"
Li Chi said, "I have thought about it. Go back and give you all the clothes left by Mr. Li. You can make them all, and then find some handsome men and beautiful women to build a high platform in Chang'an City and show it to the people on it. It takes about a few days before Chang'an City will begin to become popular with your Cao family."
"But your Majesty, Chang'an City is really boring."
"I will help you find a way to get a Duke. This matter has been put on the agenda recently. I have instructed Xu Ji to take the lead in supporting him. Now, just by persuading the people in the Censorate, it will probably be over."
"His Majesty......"
"I know."
Li Chi said: "If you are really a little frustrated, there will be war in Xijiang. I guess there will be many guards. You can go to Xijiang for a trip and pick up whatever good things you have seized. Remember to go back to Chang'an after you have enough fun."
Cao Lie: "Your Majesty, I don't want to go... I just want to go back to Jiangnan."
Li Chi looked at Cao Lie and said, "I have reached out to you frequently recently. At worst, I won't ask you for money for two years. However, the ready-to-wear business I mentioned before is my idea, and I still have to give it to me."
Cao Lie sighed.
Li Chi sighed, and after a moment, Li Chi said tentatively: "Or, I will ask the queen to protect you as a matchmaker? Find a way to bring Miss Jianjia to Chang'an?"
Cao Lie's eyes lit up.
If the above conversation happened in the novel, the name of this novel is probably... The cold little businessman and his unjust majesty.
However, Cao Lie's eyes only lit up for a moment and then flashed again, and the light appeared and disappeared.
"Your Majesty... It's a good thing to protect the media, but...Ke Chen thinks it's better not to bother the Queen himself to arrange this matter."
When Li Chi heard Cao Lie's words, he couldn't help but sigh again: "You have a deep misunderstanding of the queen."
Cao Lie: "Your Majesty, please tell me your conscience again."
Li Chi smiled and said, "Okay, I will personally arrange your marriage with Miss Jianjia and ask Mr. Ye to take over me and go to Miss Jianjia's house to propose marriage."
Cao Lie finally laughed.
Li Chi gave him a blank look and signaled the eunuch Ding Qing'an to come over and resume the tea.
Cao Lie asked: "The ready-to-wear business that Your Majesty just mentioned is possible, and it can be done very much."
Li Chi didn't want to pay attention to him.
Cao Lie said: "You can first divide the business into two parts. The part is cheaper clothes, which have better workmanship and better materials, but the price remains basically the same as other homes."
Speaking of this, he looked at Li Chi, but Li Chi ignored him.
Cao Lie said: "It is best to come up with a clothes or fabric that the people think that for the same price, it is not only of good quality, but also of high style. So I thought I could make a gimmick, just say that all the materials were produced from the mulberry garden personally selected by His Majesty Anyang County."
Li Chi still ignored him.
Cao Lie said: "The second part is to do high-level customization, find the best tailor, and do not accept non-booked customers' business. Each custom-made clothes embroider the custom-made customers' names in inconspicuous places. In inconspicuous places, it is because they appear unpretentious. If placed in conspicuous places, it will be a bit cliché."
Li Chi still ignored him.
At this moment, if this is a plot that happened in a novel, the name of this novel should be... The cold emperor and his unjust little god of wealth.
Cao Liedao: "About dividends..."
Li Chi took care of him.
Li Chi said: "If you pay dividends, I'm embarrassed to take too much. Just 19, I'll take 10%."
Cao Lie: "At least, it's 307."
Li Chi thought about it and shook his head: "It's okay for 28, I'm not greedy."
Cao Lie: "..."
He paused for a moment and said to Li Chi: "Tao Xiaomi is doing a good job in Gyeonggi-do business. Now the people on Xu Ji's side have completely trusted him."
Lee Chi said: "When will the business in Gyeonggi Province have pure profits? You can send people to the queen regularly."
Cao Lie: "How to divide the business in Gyeonggi Province?"
Li Chi: "It's still 28."
Cao Lie: "Okay, thank your Majesty for your grace."
Li Chi said: "I'm eight and you two."
Cao Lie: "I took back the words of thanking Your Majesty for grace just now, and I have some resentment, but I can resist it."
Li Chi smiled and said, "Don't be impatient about Duke's affairs, I will eventually find a way for you."
Cao Lie said: "Your Majesty knows that I actually have no obsession with the identity of this Duke. I have the only obsession in my heart..."
Li Chi: "I know, I know, I will ask Mr. Ye to choose some gifts tomorrow. If you are quick, I will get the wedding for you before the New Year."
Cao Lie: "The business in Gyeonggi Province is actually OK, I can get one."
Li Chi: "Look at your face."
Cao Lie: "It's exactly the same as Your Majesty."
Li Chi glared at him and then burst into laughter.
Cao Lie said: "Your Majesty still has so many state affairs to deal with, so I will leave first. Your Majesty has any instructions to summon me to the palace at any time. I think Chang'an City is really my favorite place. Whether it is customs or humanities, I like it very much. I plan to settle in Chang'an City..."
Li Chi: "Get out..."
Cao Lie leaned over: "Okay."
When he walked to the door, Cao Lie suddenly turned around and looked at Li Chi and asked, "Your Majesty said that you would allow me to open several buildings in Chang'an City..."
Li Chi glared at him and said, "If Miss Jianjia really wants to marry you and come to Chang'an City to settle down, do you still want to open a building?"
Cao Lie said: "That's how...that minister suddenly thought of a good business, and Your Majesty can also pay dividends."
Li Chi: "If you have any farts, please let it go."
Cao Lie turned around and lowered his voice to Li Chi, saying, "The officials of governments, departments, all officials' uniforms, and the military uniforms of each guard soldiers... If your Majesty also handed over these business to me, the court will allocate funds and I will give you kickbacks."
Li Chi glared at him: "You actually want me to be a terd of Daning?!"
Cao Lie quickly lowered his head.
Li Chi glared at him fiercely: "I have forgotten that you don't mention this matter. You can give it to you all, but military uniforms are the dignity of soldiers, and official uniforms are the dignity of the court. There is no need to be careless when using materials and workmanship."
Cao Lie: "I didn't make it clear. I took on this job. Except for all costs, I only earned one cent of profit. I took out half of this profit and handed it to the queen regularly. The queen spent a lot of money. I already knew that the queen would try her best to give some pensions to the families of the fallen soldiers every month..."
Li Chi was silent for a moment and shook his head: "One cent profit is what you should get. This is very rare. Even if you deduct one cent profit from cost, plus other uncalculable consumption, one cent profit will be gone. You owe this matter. As for the comfort of the fallen soldiers on a monthly basis, I will ask the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War to make a statement in the future and the court will pay it."
Cao Lie leaned over: "I obey the order."
Li Chi waved his hand: "Get out quickly, you will be filthy with a stinky smell like this."
Cao Lie: "..."
Shortly after Cao Lie left, the young eunuch Ding Qing'an said that Prime Minister Xu Ji was seeking progress.
Li Chi asked Xu Ji to come in, but he didn't look up and continued to review the memorials on the table.
"His Majesty."
Xu Ji bent over to salute after entering the door.
Li Chi still asked without looking up: "What's the matter?"
Xu Ji said: "All departments have prepared according to His Majesty's instructions. The second batch of supplies sent to Western Xinjiang. I want to ask His Majesty when to send them out and who should send to supervise and escort them."
Li Chi did not answer his question, but said another thing: "Yesterday, Gao Youlian and others from the Censorate mentioned it to me. Gui Yuanshu, the Minister of Rites, and Jia Ruan, the Minister of Personnel, fought with the people of the Western Regions outside Chang'an City, which was a loss of court dignity."
Xu Ji's mind immediately turned around, what does Your Majesty mean?
Want to deal with Guiyuan Shu and Jia Ruan?
How could that be possible? Those two people beat the people of the Western Regions. Your Majesty was so happy that he was so happy that his Majesty really wanted to deal with those two people.
Besides, before the Western Regions came, Your Majesty temporarily transferred the two guys to the Ministry of Rites. What they did was His Majesty's wish.
Guiyuan Shu is the Minister of Rites, but Guiyuan Shu is definitely not the best candidate for the Minister of Rites. Jia Ruan is the same. These two people should not work in the Ministry of Rites.
Your Majesty just said that Gao Youlian and others were anxious about the ginseng, so we have to give an explanation after all.
Xu Ji's mind quickly turned around, then leaned over and said, "What Gao Youlian and the others said made sense. Lord Gui and Lord Jia were indeed a bit rash, but it was not a big mistake. Just a small punishment."
Li Chi asked with a smile, "Then how do you think you should punish me?"
Xu Ji said: "After Guiyuan Shu was transferred to the Minister of Rites, the Minister of Justice was vacant. I thought that Guiyuan Shu could be demoted to the Minister of Justice, temporarily assumed the power of the Minister of Justice, and deducted another year's salary."
Li Chi: "So light?"
Xu Ji: "It's not too light to be demoted to Minister of State."
