The empress is wild and cool, and I'll help her secure her throne

Even Ye Qianxuan himself did not expect that it could be sold for so much money, and immediately nodded in agreement:

"At this price, of course!"

"Thank you, Shopkeeper Song!"

"Besides that, I also want Shopkeeper Song to sell this to Southern Wu and Northern Liang."

"I also want to sell it to Shopkeeper Song on a buyout basis."

As Ye Qianxuan spoke, he called Chu Yao to take out a sweet potato that had already been roasted and two sweet potato vines.

After eating the roasted sweet potatoes, Song Minbo was also amazed.

It was soft, sweet and delicious, a delicacy he had never tasted in all his travels to high-end banquets in different countries!

"Shopkeeper Song, this is a new crop invented by Mr. Ye, and it's called sweet potato!"

"Sweet potatoes have been in season for a long time, but chestnuts and firewood are useless in the fields. I have always protected my father, the king, but I still remember the old sages who tilled the fields and admired him."

"Have you heard this poem?"

"This is the 'To Zhongzhi' I wrote when Ye Xiaoyou asked me to taste sweet potatoes!"

"This item will definitely sell well among the upper classes of Dong Zhou, Bei Liang, and Nan Wu!"

Kong Zhongzhi immediately assisted from the side.

He had already spread "To Zhongzhi" through the students of Anlu Academy!

Nowadays, scholars and literati are very curious about what the "sweet potato" in the poem is!

It’s a great time to sell!

Song Minbo nodded - this sweet potato is delicious enough and has cultural heritage, it is indeed something that can sell well among the upper class of the Three Kingdoms!

He looked at Ye Qianxuan with emotion. Is this guy really just a lowly corpse seamstress?

"Sweet potato vines can be planted in the soil to produce sweet potatoes. They are highly adaptable and require very little water and fertilizer, so they must be promoted on a large scale in the future to solve the food shortage problem in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty."

"I still have about thirty sweet potatoes. Shopkeeper Song can sell these thirty sweet potatoes to the upper echelons of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty at a high price."

"After we gain popularity, we can sell the sweet potato vines to Beiliang and Nanwu at a high price."

"Northern Liang and Southern Wu will definitely buy it at a high price."

"But by the beginning of next spring, these sweet potatoes will become food for ordinary people in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty."

"This move not only gained huge profits, but also dealt a heavy blow to Beiliang and Nanwu. It was a trick on them!"

After Ye Qianxuan finished speaking, Song Minbo's eyes changed when he looked at Ye Qianxuan!

It was a look of admiration, praise, and even a desire to prostrate oneself!

Song Minbo stood up!

The richest man in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the owner of Donghuangtai, bowed deeply to the corpse tailor whom he once looked down upon.

"Cooperating with Master Ye is truly a blessing for Dong Zhou, Dong Huang Tai, and Song Minbo!"

Ye Qianxuan quickly supported Song Minbo and said, "Shopkeeper Song, thank you for your kind words!"

"How much can Shopkeeper Song offer to buy out this Sweet Potato Vine?"

"Eight million." Song Minbo was determined to shock people.

"This... doesn't need to be so much..." Ye Qianxuan was confused.

Two sweet potato vines, sold for eight million taels of silver?

Isn’t this too unscrupulous!

Song Minbo shook his head: "It's not much at all."

"If I sell these sweet potato vines to the black market in Southern Wu and Northern Liang, I can make at least 10 million taels of silver!"

"Master Ye, don't underestimate the spending power of the embroidered clothing envoys from Northern Liang and Southern Wu."

"They are most willing to spend money on things that look like they are betraying Dong Zhou!"

Ye Qianxuan nodded. Sure enough, Song Minbo was more of a scoundrel!

"Okay! Then it's a deal!"

"I'll get some banknotes for Mr. Ye right away," Song Minbo said with a smile.

"With these twelve million taels of silver, Young Master Ye will be able to rise to prominence in the capital of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and become a member of the upper class!"

"Song Minbo would like to say congratulations here first!"

"No need." Ye Qianxuan waved his hand.

"No need?" Song Minbo was stunned.

Ye Qianxuan looked at Kong Zhongzhi: "Dean Kong, how much money did you borrow from the Ministry of Industry?"

"The honeycomb coal sales have been short-lived, and in order to keep the people of Dongzhou warm, I've been selling it at a discount price, so my profit is only one million taels. The Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Works only lent me three hundred thousand taels."

Kong Zhongzhi took out a silver note worth three hundred thousand taels and handed it to Ye Qianxuan and said.

His tone was full of guilt.

Ye Qianxuan got 12 million taels of silver with just two moves.

However, he only managed to get 300,000 taels after much persuasion from the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Works.

It’s really embarrassing to compare yourself with others!

I really don't deserve to be the Minister of Rites!

Compared with Ye Xiaoyou, he is far behind!

"enough."

Ye Qianxuan comforted him, and then handed the three hundred thousand taels of silver to Song Minbo, saying:

"Please ask Manager Song to exchange all of this 12.3 million taels of silver for grain to fill the Taicang Office so that the people of Dongzhou will have food to eat during the winter."

Song Minbo was stunned immediately!

What is a pattern!

This is called pattern!

Twelve million taels is enough for Ye Qianxuan to go anywhere and live the life of a rich man!

Even if he went to Southern Wu and Northern Liang, Ye Qianxuan could get rid of his status as a slave!

But Ye Qianxuan didn’t!

Instead, he used his own inventions and designs to make money for the country and provide food for the people!

This is a great good!

For a moment, Ye Qianxuan's image in Song Minbo's eyes suddenly became taller!

Become unattainable!

Song Minbo bowed deeply and said respectfully, "I will definitely fulfill your mission!"

Then, he turned around and left.

Ye Qianxuan let out a long sigh.

Twelve million three hundred thousand taels is enough to buy food for the people in the capital of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty to survive the winter!

Kong Zhongzhi also stood up and bowed to Ye Qianxuan: "I admire you!"

Chu Yao and Xiang Ning were both extremely surprised!

This is definitely a sight you won’t see anywhere else!

The dignified Minister of Rites, a third-rank official of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, actually bowed to a lowly person!

But Ye Qianxuan, it’s worth it!

……

The next day, Song Minbo tailored a four-piece suit for Xiangning according to Ye Qianxuan's idea, which amazed the entire Eastern Zhou Dynasty that night!

Song Minbo also invited some literati to create hype, boasting about the stunning beauty of the Eastern Zhou courtesan in cheongsam, black stockings and high heels, which became a worldwide sensation in a short while!

At the same time, Song Minbo is lustful and has always had affairs with the top courtesans in Beiliang and Nanwu.

When the two courtesans heard that Song Minbo had beautiful clothes but refused to give them to them, they both sent their servants to complain to them in anger!

Song Minbo took advantage of the situation and sent two items over along with the agreement!

Afterwards, sales in the Three Kingdoms market quickly opened up!

The three words "Donghuangtai" are embroidered on every piece of clothing as a trademark to build momentum for the brand!

Therefore, even if the official businesses of Beiliang and Nanwu followed suit and made the same clothes, the three most beautiful courtesans all signed an agreement with Donghuangtai and only wore clothes produced by Donghuangtai!

Naturally, those senior executives and businessmen also followed suit and bought Donghuangtai's clothes - after all, it was the young lady at home who specifically asked for it!

Afterwards, Song Minbo held a sweet potato auction and invited celebrities from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty to participate. After giving everyone a roasted sweet potato to taste, everyone was shocked!

too delicious!

No wonder the quatrain "To Zhongzhi" has been circulated!

Who wouldn’t want to compose a poem after eating this delicious delicacy?

Therefore, sweet potatoes, coupled with Ye Qianxuan's elegant poem "To Zhongzhi", became popular among the upper class of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. They all regarded eating sweet potatoes as a symbol of upper-class status. Thirty sweet potatoes were sold at a high price of three million taels in total!

At the same time, envoys in embroidered robes from Southern Wu and Northern Liang soon found Song Minbo and wanted to buy sweet potatoes at a high price.

After all, the nobles of Northern Liang and Southern Wu also wanted to taste this high-end food that could "remember the sages of the past" and was popular among the upper class of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty!

When the envoys from both countries heard that Song Minbo was directly selling sweet potato vines, they were very excited!

After a round of negotiations, the sweet potato vine was finally priced at eight million taels of silver per piece.

The embroidered envoys from Southern Wu and Northern Liang bought them one after another!

Both parties in the negotiation were very happy and thought they had gotten a great deal!

Five days later, before the 39th day of the lunar month, Song Minbo also used the money to bring enough food to the Taicang Office for the people of the entire Eastern Zhou Dynasty to survive the winter!

With the promotion of the Ministry of Rites, sweet potato vines began to be planted on a small scale to solve the food shortage problem in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty in the coming years.

This time, Ye Qianxuan successfully solved the problem of food shortage in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty during winter!

But at this moment, outside Xuanzi Room No. 3, an uninvited guest arrived...
