After traveling through time, I was spotted by the new emperor

Ye Wuwei thought for a moment and asked again, "The porcelain here is very expensive. Does the prince have any craftsmen who can make porcelain?"

"The craft of porcelain making is in the hands of the Yuwen family. I don't have any craftsmen who can make porcelain."

Is that so?

"Your Majesty, I will find a way to make money for you. But can you give me a share of the profits?"

“What are dividends?”

"Just give me some of the profits."

"Are you short of money?"

Ye Wuwei thought to himself: Who would complain about having too much money?

"Your Highness, I have no relatives to help me, and no inheritance. I need to save money to buy a house, marry a wife, and raise a son, so I naturally need to make money.

I am not a greedy person, so I won’t ask for more dividends.”

Qi Wushuang looked at Ye Wuwei deeply again: "Let's talk about it after you find a way to make money."

Afterwards, Qi Wushuang asked Ye Wuwei to find a room to stay in Prince Qi's mansion.

"There are no women in the palace. You can live wherever you want."

When Ye Wuwei said goodbye, he suddenly remembered his encounter with Princess Qionghua today.

"There's one more thing I forgot to tell you, Your Majesty.

I just arrived in Qamdo today and I ran into Princess Qionghua. She seems to have taken a fancy to me. Will there be any trouble?"

"Do you want to be in trouble or not?"

"I am the prince's man, so naturally I don't want to be involved with other people."

Qi Wushuang felt something was strange when he heard Ye Wuwei's words, but he didn't know what was strange.

"Princess Qionghua is the daughter of Empress Zhuang, the younger sister of the Second Prince, and the only princess of the Qi Dynasty."

The only princess? She must be very favored.

"Is she afraid of you?"

“In Qamdo, few people are afraid of me.”

Wow, that's such a domineering statement!

"Then I have nothing to worry about. If she comes looking for me, I will move out of the prince."

After Ye Wuwei left, Chu Fuchi looked at Qi Wushuang: "Wushuang, you are very tolerant of Ye Wuwei."

"If I don't tolerate him because of his unruly appearance, will he work for me wholeheartedly?"

Chu Fuchi did not expose Qi Wushuang.

Qi Wushuang is not a tolerant person. He has a bad temper and patience, and never wastes time talking to others.

But Chu Fuchi discovered that Ye Wuwei dared to say anything in front of Qi Wushuang, and Qi Wushuang would answer every question he asked.

Maybe Ye Wuwei just loves to talk nonsense by nature, but he also needs Qi Wushuang's permission.

……

After leaving Qi Wushuang, Ye Wuwei went to find Ye Lingling and Xiaohe.

Xiao He and Ye Lingling both work in the kitchen of Prince Qi's Mansion, and Xiao He is already one of the chefs of Prince Qi's Mansion.

Hearing that someone was looking for them, Ye Lingling and Xiaohe left the kitchen.

Seeing Ye Wuwei, Ye Lingling and Xiao He were stunned for a moment, and then Ye Lingling shouted in surprise: "Brother Ye."

Ye Wuwei smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to recognize me. Qi Cheng didn't even recognize me when he saw me today."

"Brother Ye has changed a lot. It took me a while to recognize you."

Ye Lingling hasn't changed much, but Xiaohe has changed a lot.

Although still a little timid, he was no longer as timid and nervous as he was when they first met. He would only glance at people quickly and then lower his head.

Looking at Xiao He like this, Ye Wuwei was quite happy.

"From now on, you can call me Brother Ye. I'm actually older than you, but my body just hadn't grown yet."

Including his previous life, Ye Wuwei was indeed older than Xiaohe and Ye Lingling.

Two years ago, Ye Wuwei's bean sprout-like figure made Ye Lingling call Ye Wuwei "Big Brother Ye", and Ye Wuwei felt embarrassed.

But now, Ye Wuwei said this as a matter of course.

Ye Lingling readily changed the address to "Brother Ye."

Xiao He also blushed and called out softly, "Brother Ye."

"Take me around Qamdo, and I'll treat you to dinner at the most expensive restaurant in Qamdo tonight."

"The most expensive restaurant in Qamdo is Hongfu Restaurant. The food there is really expensive."

"I can still afford a meal. I've saved a lot of money in the past two years. And I got a promotion. Now I'm a deputy captain."

"Doesn't that mean he has the same high position as Lord Qi?"

The Lord Qi that Ye Lingling mentioned is Qi Cheng.

"Yes."

During the past two years in Anping County, Ye Wuwei had not spent any of his own money on food and lodging, and had saved 1,500 taels of silver.

In modern times, it would be one million yuan.

In modern times, Ye Wuwei had been a special forces soldier for nearly ten years but had not saved a million dollars. However, in the Qi Dynasty, he achieved this in two years.

Ye Wuwei had other intentions when he visited Qamdo and had dinner at the most expensive restaurant.

When he heard Qi Wushuang say that he was short of money today, he wanted to see what Qi Chao could do to make money.

There was only a month and a half left until the New Year, and everyone started preparing for the New Year. Chamdo was more lively than usual.

With Ye Lingling's introduction, after nearly two hours of shopping, Ye Wuwei had a general understanding of Qi Dynasty's commodities and economy.

In general, the Qi Dynasty was short of supplies and had a backward economy, but the gap between the rich and the poor was huge.

This is related to the control of resources by the aristocratic families.

Therefore, the easiest money to make in Qi Dynasty is from the aristocratic families.

But it is not easy to make money from wealthy families. You need to have unique products.

such as:

The method of making porcelain was mastered by the Yuwen clan, so porcelain could be sold at a sky-high price, and the Yuwen clan was rich enough to rival a country.

The Zhuang family of Ledo mastered silk technology and had income from sea salt, so the Zhuang family was also rich enough to rival a country.

Andu produces pond salt and is also an ancient capital with a prosperous economy, so Qi Wushuang is not short of money.

However, Yingdu's only source of income was the horse farm, so it could not afford the army of General Chu.

Another example:

The food at Hongfu Restaurant is just so-so, but they are considered a high-end restaurant because they have three fine wines that are not sold to customers.

After dinner at Hongfu Restaurant in the evening, Ye Wuwei had a preliminary idea of ​​how to help Qi Wushuang make money.

……

King Qi's Mansion

After dealing with Andu's affairs with Chu Fuchi, Qi Wushuang looked at the time and it was already the end of the Xu hour.

Qi Wushuang asked Qi Cheng: "Where is Ye Wuwei?"

"He went out with Miss Ye and Miss Xiaohe."

Qi Wushuang thought: He is good at flirting. He asked someone out as soon as he came back.

Although he thought so in his heart, Qi Wushuang did not say anything, but only asked Qi Cheng to serve dinner.

Qi Wushuang and Chu Fuchi had just finished their meal when Ye Wuwei came in.

Ye Wuwei sat down opposite Qi Wushuang without any dignity, "I have thought of a way to make money."

Qi Wushuang had the dishes cleared away and brought up a pot of tea.

"You have an idea so quickly?"

"That's natural. Don't you see who I am?"

Ye Wuwei talked about his ways of making money: brewing wine, drying salt, making glass and growing tea.

Qi Chao's wines are all low-concentration wines, and the highest concentration is only about ten degrees, lacking the richness and long-lasting characteristics of high-concentration wines. However, Ye Wuwei can brew high-concentration wines.

The Qi Dynasty's salt was currently made by the brine-sprinkling and salt-frying method, which required a lot of manpower and a lot of firewood, and was time-consuming, labor-intensive, and costly. If the sun-drying salt-making method was adopted, it would not only reduce costs but also increase output.

There was no glass in the Qi Dynasty at present, and some expensive crystal balls still came from the distant country of Borneo.

As for the tea ceremony, at present in the Qi Dynasty, most of the people who drank tea were aristocrats, and it had not yet become popular among literati and officials, let alone the tea ceremony becoming popular and the custom of drinking tea spreading throughout the court and the country.
