Traveling through the emperor, overthrowing the empress dowager at the beginning

Do business.

Ye Chen really doesn't have the relevant talents.

Boss Murong provided channels, money, and manpower to help sell flour, and in the end he had to share the profits with Ye Chen.

No matter how Ye Chen looked at it, he earned it himself.

Of course there is no reason to refuse.

"Boss Murong, how long will it take you to transport the wheat? How much can you deliver at a time?"

Ye Chen asked.

"This will take at least two weeks. For the first time, I can buy 200 kilograms. If the profit is good, the amount of wheat I buy will gradually increase. However, wheat is the staple food of the Qiang people after all. If I only buy wheat, it will be too much and the Qiang nobles will not agree. But if I buy wheat and sell wheat cakes at the same time, there will be no problem."

Boss Murong paused, then added, "Also, I can send people there in batches to ensure that we can continue to purchase wheat after we get the first batch."

Hearing this, Ye Chen nodded and said, "How about this, I'll give Boss Murong the money to buy two thousand kilograms of wheat. You tell me the amount first."

"Master Ye, I'll advance the initial payment for the wheat. After all, the Qiang people are all tribes, and the prices fluctuate greatly when doing business with them. Once the first batch of wheat arrives, we can discuss your payment."

Boss Murong said.

"That's okay too."

Ye Chen nodded slightly and said, "Then Boss Murong, I will return to the palace and wait for your good news."

"Master Ye, I'd like to ask, is this wheat and flour business your personal idea, or the idea of ​​the person behind you?"

Boss Murong suddenly asked when he saw Ye Chen was about to leave.

"Boss Murong, are you interested in this?"

"No, I'm just curious."

Boss Murong asked with a gleam in his eyes.

"Boss Murong, please don't ask about things you shouldn't know."

Ye Chen deliberately kept a cold face and his tone became heavier.

He was in the wheat business not only to make money but also to get military rations.

And this kind of thing must never be leaked.

No matter what, Boss Murong is still a businessman, and Ye Chen cannot trust him completely.

After hearing Ye Chen's words, Boss Murong fell silent.

By the time Ye Chen left the room.

"Yuniang, go see Mr. Ye off."

"it is good."

Yu Niang twisted her snake-like waist and walked out with big strides. She exuded a mature and charming aura, her pretty face was full of smiles, and her gentle eyes seemed to be overflowing with water.

Ye Chen looked at Yu Niang who was walking towards him, and the corners of his mouth quickly rose up.

The scent of this woman is becoming more and more attractive.

"Master Ye, won't you stay a little longer? Although Miss Huamei is on the Lanmei Boat, my boss can call her over for you."

Yu Niang gently waved her palm-leaf fan, sending out a fragrant breeze, and spoke in a gentle tone.

"Oh, Yu Niang, I still can't stay outside the palace for too long. I have important things to do."

Ye Chen smiled and refused.

"That's a shame, Master Ye. We've recently imported some fine wine from the Western Regions. And those girls at the door, Master Ye, you should have seen them, right? They're all truly learned and well-versed in the Confucian Classics. If you're interested, Master Ye, you can take some back."

Yu Niang's eyes were full of charm as she said.

However, when Ye Chen heard Yu Niang's words, he couldn't help but squint his eyes.

"Yu Niang, when did your boss allow so many educated women to dress in Confucian clothing and solicit customers outside the brothel? Is it because your boss did this that so many women with unusual clothing appeared in other brothels?"

Ye Chen asked curiously.

"Haha, my boss did it a few days ago, and those brothels are all copying my boss's ideas!"

Yu Niang was somewhat pleased with herself.

Ye Chen was speechless for a while.

Wow, it turns out it started from your house.

Ye Chen admired Boss Murong's business acumen, but he also felt that something was wrong.

"Yu Niang, isn't your boss afraid of offending other brothels by doing this?"

Ye Chen asked.

People who like to roll will encourage others to roll with them, but they will also offend others.

"Oh, so what if I offended you."

But Yu Niang didn't care much.

In her opinion, since everyone is doing business, it is natural for everyone to rely on their own abilities. If you cannot compete, it can only be said that you are not capable enough and you cannot blame others.

Moreover, Boss Murong already has a background in the underworld, so Yu Niang is not afraid of other brothels.

"Yu Niang, if you encounter any trouble in the future, remember to come to me."

Seeing Yu Niang like this, Ye Chen said.

"Oh, don't worry, Mr. Ye."

Yu Niang said, "Mr. Ye, I really don't plan to stay for a few drinks. Why don't you just eat lunch? The boss said that all your consumption at my lakeside cottage is free!"

"Next time."

Ye Chen shook his head. A trace of reluctance flashed in the depths of Yu Niang's eyes, but she still diligently sent Ye Chen out of the lakeside cottage.

When Ye Chen left in the carriage, Yu Niang stood there, looking out for a long time before turning around and returning to the cottage by the lake.

And on the carriage.

"Qiu'er, deploy more personnel around this lakeside cottage and be on guard against anyone who might harm Boss Murong."

Ye Chen instructed Shen Qiu.

Hearing this, Shen Qiu looked at Ye Chen with a complicated expression.

"Your Majesty, Boss Murong already has a strong background in the underworld, and you've already given them the authority to report this to the higher authorities. So, nothing should go wrong, right?"

Shen Qiu asked.

"Qiu'er, I am doing this not only to protect Boss Murong, but also to protect the wheat purchase."

Ye Chen spoke in a calm and serious tone, "This matter concerns the military rations for the new army, so we cannot be careless."

And listened to Ye Chen's words.

Shen Qiu clasped his fists.

"According to the order!"

Ye Chen lifted the curtain.

He was not interested in those prostitutes, he just watched them with admiration and enjoyed watching them very much.

However, what Ye Chen didn't know at this time was.

Not far from the lakeside cottage, in a private room on the top floor of a brothel.

Wu Ba, wearing an eye mask, looked at Ye Chen's carriage with a fierce look in his eyes.

Next to him was a man with a beard.

If Ye Chen saw this bearded man, he would immediately recognize him as one of the gangsters that Boss Murong had originally sought out.

This bearded man once complained about the low salary and then chose to leave the lakeside cottage.

At this time, the bearded man was already standing next to Wu Ba, and it was obvious that he had already defected to Wu Ba.
