At this moment, Yuan Ruan was sitting on the emperor's dragon thigh. She was not being held by the emperor because the emperor was too busy.

Not only did he hold different memorials in his two hands, but there were also people standing on his left and right sides.

On the left is a civil service group headed by the Minister of Revenue, who is using his buttocks to block the way for the Minister of War who is approaching again, and is leaning over to tell the emperor how much profit can be made from selling glass to the other three countries.

On the right was a group of military generals headed by the Minister of War. Each of them held a newly drawn map in their hands and stared at the emperor with high morale. As long as the emperor looked at them, they would kneel down and swear a military order.

This description is not an exaggeration, because just a cup of tea ago, a general took a run just like that.

When the emperor was taking a tea break, he took the opportunity to jump out, holding up a map of a small town on the border of Shu Kingdom in one hand, and loudly said that he could capture the town with so many troops and so much time, and he was willing to issue a military order for this.

If the Minister of Revenue had not repeatedly persuaded the emperor that the town was not suitable, the emperor would have immediately agreed. But even if he did not immediately agree, the generals could see the emperor's intention, so they were also eager to move, hoping that they would be the lucky ones to have the opportunity to go on the expedition.

Yuan Ruan took a bite of the braised meat that the Third Prince had passed to him, and listened to the "Pa Pa Pa" sound of the Minister of Revenue.

Yuan Ruan sighed: [This year has been... really rough! Speaking of which, the business idea of ​​the Minister of Revenue doesn't seem to work. ]

The Minister of Revenue, who was reporting to the emperor, was startled when he heard this. He was still talking, but he was trying to do two things at the same time, with part of his attention focused on Yuan Ruan.

The system agreed: [Aruan is right. What did he say about asking the big merchants of Daxia to sell to the noble groups of other three countries? Well, let’s not talk about whether Chen, Shu, and Chu will let the big merchants of Daxia go to their own nobles’ mansions to sell for a long time. Just say that selling luxury goods in this way is not good enough. 】

Yuanruan took another bite of jerky and chatted with the system: [Right. Going too far is not a good deal. If you want to sell high-priced goods, you have to make them look scarce and unique, and it’s best to create a “people-scrambling” atmosphere! I think we should spread some rumors that only the top nobles of Daxia use glass artworks, make up some stories for these artworks, and then use auction bidding and other methods, so as to maximize the benefits in the early stage. The method of the Minister of Revenue cannot be said to be bad, but it is more suitable for glass to be used when the price gradually drops and it is used by small nobles and local tyrants...]

The Minister of Revenue was apparently still talking about the contents of his memorial, but in fact his right hand was taking notes in a small notebook.

Then Yuanruan talked to the system about some ideas.

The Minister of Revenue sorted out his thoughts for a moment, then bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I still have some rough ideas."

He first outlined some of Yuanruan's suggestions.

After finishing speaking, the Minister of Revenue sensibly stated that these suggestions were inspired by his previous visit to the Liuli Workshop, thanks to the young imperial master.

The civil officials subconsciously looked at Prime Minister Li: After this was said, Your Majesty can give the young imperial teacher an open reward. This is a good flattery, and he has some of the skills of Prime Minister Li.

The military generals rolled their eyes: The civil officials are too good at flattering.

The Minister of War muttered, "What a flatterer! I am ashamed to be associated with him!"

At this time, the Minister of Revenue did not forget to cue Yuan Ruan again, and said with a cupped hand: "This old minister can only think of so much at the moment. I wonder what the Imperial Master thinks? Do you have any other suggestions?"

After Yuan Ruan heard the Minister of Revenue's outline, she filled in other ideas through tortoise divination or childish talk.

With the Minister of Revenue's occasional "supplements", the two of them sang in unison, basically telling everyone how glass was sold to other countries at high prices, which was far more than what they said in their hearts.

The civil officials lowered their heads and took notes quickly.

The generals stopped rolling their eyes and were somewhat envious: The Minister of Revenue really got the horse right?! The Imperial Master gave a lot of extra answers. How about learning it yourself?!

The Minister of Revenue was very happy. When he was about to ask about auction pricing and other related matters, he was suddenly bumped by the person next to him and stumbled.

Then, he saw the Minister of War clasping his hands and saying loudly, "Master Imperial Master, you can't be partial to one over the other! Look at this detailed map. Which town do you think is the most suitable to attack? Could you give me some advice?"

Everyone:?
