The eldest daughter of a peasant family: They are all my sisters’ passers-by

"I dare not deceive you, sir."

Chen Yanshu rubbed his thumb and index finger inside his sleeve. He had a gentle smile on his face, but his head was already starting to hurt. He was a little confused as to whether Lan Wangshu was sincere or not.

"I heard that you planned to do charity when you opened your shop. How can you make others share your concerns?"

Lan Wangshu finally understood what the emperor had said. The emperor didn't intend to pretend anymore and just laid his cards on the table. As expected, she was right in her guess.

The girl hesitated about how to answer, which would eliminate the chance of her entering the palace. If she answered too well, it would mean that she was just pretending and lying to him, which was inappropriate and a dead end.

If the answer was too bad, it would implicate many people in deceiving the emperor, and even her family would be in trouble. Those who were seeking fame and reputation would ask him to make a trip to get close to him, and he would inevitably be angry and embarrassed.

In a few breaths, she thought a lot.

"Your Majesty, my idea is just to be more flexible. I have three younger brothers at home, and I don't know how much it will cost for them to study in the future. Therefore, I want to have a good reputation and do long-term business. But if there is any measure that can make me excited, perhaps tax reduction and exemption can be used. With the same amount of money, it is naturally more profitable to have a good reputation."

Lan Wangshu pondered for a while and gave a standard answer.

"You are born to do business."

Chen Yanshu didn't say yes or no, but Lan Wangshu understood that she had passed this level. Cold sweat was already dripping down the back of her neck. She finally understood what it meant to have her head tied to her belt.

"You have played an indispensable role in the suppression of the bandits this time. The document contains a lot of information about your great achievements. What kind of reward do you want?"

Lan Wangshu seemed to be hesitant to talk and glanced at Chen Yanshu quietly.

"I dare not. It is all my daughter's blessing."

"Okay, stop pretending. Just tell me straight. I am the Son of Heaven. My words are golden and I will keep them. I will satisfy you with anything I have in this world."

Chen Yanshu looked at her painful face and couldn't help but smile. After all, she was still a child and couldn't hide her emotions. He wanted to hear what she thought.

"Really?"

Lan Wangshu looked up in surprise, then quickly covered his mouth with his hands, revealing a somewhat ingratiating smile.

"Your Majesty, I want the right to buy and sell wine and tea."

Chen Yanshu narrowed his eyes slightly, as he suddenly got to the main source of income for the national treasury. Not only was this thing highly profitable, it also involved the lifeblood of the country.

"Why didn't you ask for salt and sugar?"

"If your majesty agrees, then that's fine."

Lan Wangshu muttered softly, his face full of the innocence of a child. Chen Yanshu was so angry that he almost laughed. He was so bold that he dared to think of anything.

"Tell me, what do you want tea and wine for?"

He looked at Lan Wangshu and thought that he would agree if he could give him a satisfactory answer.

"The first reason is of course to do business. Zui Fu Sheng is mainly based on tea and wine. The second reason is that I know a purification technology that can control the alcohol within a reasonable range, disinfect and sterilize, and avoid infection."

Chen Yanshu suddenly became emotional. He had never heard of such a statement.

"Details uncle."

"For example, on the battlefield, when military doctors dig out arrowheads, they have to heat them with candlelight. The purpose is to disinfect them with high temperature. Alcohol can also be used. Moreover, if the thread can be disinfected, does it mean that it can be sewed?"

Chen Yanshu was two heads taller than her, and his face looked exactly like that.

Lan Wangshu rolled his eyes. Did he say too much? He didn’t know what the emperor had imagined.

"Of course, it's mainly for business. The purified wine can only be supplied to Dazhao's soldiers or clinics. This is a hypothesis. Whether it will succeed depends on the military doctors. Not all ideas can be realized."

"Now I understand what it means that talents are born to be useful."

Chen Yanshu finally understood what made Lan Wangshu so extraordinary. He was very bold and daring to think. He could use any angle he wanted, no matter how tricky it was. This was a route that no one had ever taken before. No wonder he was so different and could do so many unexpected things.

"It turns out that Your Majesty has also read Mr. Li Bai's poems."

"Li Bai's talent is well-known. I'm afraid the whole Dazhao has heard of him."

Chen Yanshu smiled, he didn't know she was so low-key and didn't know why.

He dared to say that as long as there was a poem he had not read, then people who did not know it would definitely not exist, such as this Li Bai poem. For example, these two poems were both related to Lan Wangshu. Even the Dingzhenlou poem was brought back by He Jinyu after he visited Lan Wangshu's home.

He knew much more than she thought. As long as he was willing to find out, there was nothing he didn't know.

Lan Wangshu could hear the hidden meaning in his words, and probably took it for granted that she was Li Bai.

"Mr. Li Bai was a low-key and unrestrained person. He indulged himself in the mountains and rivers, was unrestrained and enjoyed freedom. This was his ideal. Unfortunately, there are always some things in the world that are beyond one's control."

"That's natural, but Mr. Li Bai must also understand that talents will be useful in other positions."
