The princess was a little confused.

Then he asks you what you want to borrow the money for.

Lin Chen said: "Business!"

The princess was shocked again.

Later she said doubtfully, "Don't tell me that the solution you came up with was to borrow one thousand taels of silver and then make two million taels in half a year!"

Lin Chen nodded and said, "I do think so. I plan to sell some silk in the Imperial City and some places in Jiangnan. I will earn the highest profit at the lowest cost!"

When the princess heard this, she thought the other party must be crazy to come up with such an idea.

The people of Qin State were indeed particular about their clothing, but I have never heard of anyone making a huge profit of two million taels of silver in just half a year by selling silk.

"Are you sure you're not crazy?!"

The princess wanted to stop the other party's stupid behavior.

Unexpectedly, Lin Chen didn't listen at all.

Because he has a detailed plan, everything is ready now, only the east wind is missing.

What is missing is this one thousand taels of silver.

First, he had to open silk shops in the imperial city and the Jiangnan area, which would cost a total of five hundred taels.

After that, he took the remaining 500 taels to some small workshops to buy some cheap silk and satin fabrics, and the rest depended on his business skills.

In the end, the princess couldn't resist the other party and gave him one thousand taels of silver.

After receiving the banknote, Lin Chen immediately instructed his servant An to buy a few shops in good locations in the city as a preparation for the opening.

In the past few days, he went to some small workshops in the city to purchase some goods.

**An and others took the money from Lin Chen and went to handle it without stopping.

……

Half a month later, in the busiest street in the city.

At noon, firecrackers were heard in front of a newly opened store.

When the crackling sound of firecrackers rang out, the owner of the shop walked out. It was Lin Chen.

He first clasped his fists to the people around him and said that he was Lin Chen, the owner of this silk shop. To celebrate the first day of our store's opening, we have also prepared some discounts for you.

As he was speaking, he asked ** An and others to bring a turntable. The turntable was divided into several areas, with discounts of 20%, 40%, and 80%.

"Everyone, this thing is called a Chop!"

"What I mean is, before you enter our store, please take one of our darts and throw it at this turntable. If you hit the area with a 20% discount, then the items you buy will be discounted by 20%. So if you buy something for 100 taels of silver, we will only charge you 80 taels!"

When the people around heard this, they became agitated instantly.

After all, by doing this, they can buy something that would originally cost one hundred taels of silver for only twenty taels.

"Your stuff is so cheap, it can't be fake!"

Some people questioned it, after all, the things were too cheap.

Lin Chen then said, "If you are not satisfied with the items you bought and suspect they are fake, we can compensate you three times the price!"

"Return your purchase and we'll give you three more!"

After hearing this, the people no longer doubted the authenticity of the items in the shop.

"Then when can I go in and take a look?!"

someone asked.

Lin Chen said: "Now!"

"And don't forget, everyone. Before you enter our shop, take these darts and chop them first. No matter what you buy in the end, we will price it according to the discount you bargained for!"

After saying that, he asked ** An to give some darts to the people around to shoot at the turntable.

Then the waiter started spinning the turntable, and then he took the darts and started throwing them at the turntable.

However, after several rounds, most of the darts were set at a 20% discount price, and less than 10% of people shot the darts in the 40% area.

"You're amazing! You actually thought of using this method to attract the people!"

The person who spoke was Princess Danyang, accompanied by Liu Qin.

Liu Qin still looked unhappy with Lin Chen.

Lin Chen shook his head and said, "But it attracts too few people. At the end of the day, I can't make much money!"

He underestimated the number of people in the city and thought that there would be a huge crowd in front of the shop today.

But when he thought about it carefully, it made sense. The people in the city had just experienced a locust plague, and they didn't have any extra money to buy cloth.

Just when Lin Chen was feeling anxious and anxious about making money, the princess gave him a suggestion.

"Do you want to go to the Jade Shop to gamble on jade stones?!"

Lin Chen asked with a puzzled look on his face: "What is that?!"

The princess then explained, "The so-called gambling on stones is to bet on some stones containing emerald or imperial green. Before they are cut, everyone uses their own eyesight to guess which stone contains jade!"

"I heard that a jadeite shop once opened a piece of imperial green jade worth 500,000 taels. The person who won the bet quickly became a well-known and wealthy businessman in the imperial city!"

"This thing is like using a small amount of money to fight a big one!"

"Each stone can be purchased for ten taels of silver!"

Hearing about such a lucrative business, Lin Chen's eyes widened.

"Where is the Jade Shop? Take me there!"

After saying that, Lin Chen took the princess's hand and walked towards the jade shop.

Liu Qin instantly cursed: "How dare you hold the princess's hand? You don't want to live anymore!"

Lin Chen reacted and realized his inappropriate behavior, and quickly withdrew his hand.

The princess was also a little overwhelmed by the other party's sudden action, and her face turned red with embarrassment.

Then she quickly called a carriage, took Lin Chen and Liu Qin, and headed towards the jade shop.

……

About an hour later.

The carriage finally stopped.

When Lin Chen lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, he saw a huge black building in front of him, with three floors inside and outside, which was very majestic.

He looked around and found that the entrance of the tall building was crowded with people coming in and out, from ordinary people to high-ranking officials.

There were also many carriages parked at the door.

"This is the Jade Shop, let's go in!"

After the princess finished speaking, she immediately led Lin Chen out of the carriage.

Wait until the three of them arrive at the door of the black high-rise building.

Lin Chen looked up and saw three big characters written on the plaque above his head: Jade Shop!

As soon as he stepped over the threshold and looked forward, he saw countless shelves in front of him.

The shelves are filled with all kinds of antiques, jades, and calligraphy and paintings by famous people, too numerous to count.

There were also many dignitaries who quarreled with their bosses in order to obtain a famous painting.

At this time, a servant came over and saluted the princess and others.

"Are you three looking to buy some antiques or jade? We have everything here. There's nothing we don't have, except what you can't imagine!"

The princess just said, "Go to the third floor."
