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

Chapter 22 Ye Wuwei Became a Small Millionaire

Qi Wushuang's expression couldn't tell whether he agreed or disagreed, nor whether he was happy or unhappy, but Ye Wuwei showed no fear and continued to speak in a smooth manner.

"Am I not working for the prince? Just consider this as the reward I ask for from the prince."

"Are you implying that you promise to give me your life?"

"Your Highness, you are joking. My life is worthless. It is useless for Your Highness to take it.

I have brains to use, and I want to keep my life to serve the prince."

Qi Wushuang was tired after a day of work, and was amused by Ye Wuwei's talkative words and smiled slightly: "You are such a bad mouth that won't tolerate any loss."

"That's right. I can take any loss, but I can't take the loss of my mouth."

Qi Wushuang didn't say anything else, but Ye Wuwei knew that he agreed.

When Qi Cheng was in Anping County, he had seen Ye Wuwei's various ways of asking for benefits from Qi Wushuang. He was shameless, so he was not surprised. However, Ye Wuwei's performance refreshed Chu Fuchi's perception of Qi Wushuang.

Chu Fuchi and Qi Wushuang have known each other for more than 20 years and have been together for 12 years. He naturally knows that Qi Wushuang dislikes people who are smooth-talking the most.

But why did Qi Wushuang let Ye Wuwei talk nonsense?

Also, after seeing Qi Wushuang and Ye Wuwei sharing a wine glass a few days ago, Chu Fuchi tentatively picked up some food for Qi Wushuang during the meal, but after the meal, Chu Fuchi found that Qi Wushuang did not touch the food he picked up.

Does that mean Qi Wushuang is only different to Ye Wuwei?

**

Half a month before the New Year, a store called "Amway" opened in Chamdo.

"Amway" stores sell daily necessities and women's products. Its main products are facial soap, soap, crystal soap, as well as powder, rouge, etc.

On the day when the "Amway" store opened, Ye Wuwei did not go to join in the fun, but he hung the Qi Wangfu logo in the store.

Store promotions such as "buy one get one free", "exchange", "free coupons for purchases above a certain amount", and "wheel lottery" shocked the entire Chamdo.

People in Chamdo never knew that there could be so many tricks in product promotions, and the "Amway" store was doing a booming business on the opening day, with a constant stream of people for several days in the following days.

Ye Wuwei didn't care much about the business of Amway's store. He was only responsible for technical guidance. In addition to teaching how to make soap, he also drew blueprints of modern bed sheets, quilt covers, gloves, socks, toothbrushes, water cups, etc. for Ye Lingling.

……

In the seven days before the New Year, Qi Wushuang's winery brewed more than a thousand jars of high-concentration wine.

One thousand jars of wine were packaged into ten thousand small bottles and sent to the newly opened "Wangting" winery.

"Wangting" Winery has three brands of wine, namely "Feitian", "Lingtai" and "Yuye", and each brand is divided into several series.

These ten thousand small bottles of wine were sold at extremely high prices, with the most expensive wine costing one hundred taels of silver per small bottle.

Qi Wushuang assigned someone else to take care of the "Wangting" winery, but there were many suggestions from Ye Wuwei.

High-concentration liquor was unprecedented in the Qi Dynasty. With the support and operation of the Qi Palace behind the scenes, it was snatched up by various aristocratic families, nobles, and wealthy households in Chamdo as soon as it was released, and all 10,000 bottles of liquor were sold out.

When Chu Fuchi told Qi Wushuang that he had made a profit of 350,000 taels of silver, Qi Wushuang was still a little surprised.

He didn't expect that he could make so much money by brewing high-concentration wine.

If the glass that Ye Wuwei mentioned that can make a lot of money can be developed, then Andu and Yingdu will no longer have to worry about military expenses, and there will be more money to improve people's livelihood and welfare.

Qi Wushuang said to Xiao Dengzi, "Go find Ye Wuwei and ask him to see me when he comes back."

As soon as Ye Wuwei stepped into Prince Qi's Mansion, he was told that Qi Wushuang was looking for him, so he went straight to Qi Wushuang.

Qi Wushuang and Chu Fuchi were having dinner. When Ye Wuwei came in, they asked, "Have you eaten yet?"

"not yet."

Ye Wuwei sat down opposite Qi Wushuang, and little Dengzi tactfully added clean dishes and chopsticks for Ye Wuwei.

"Xiao Dengzi, tell the kitchen to make a few more dishes and send them over."

Just as Xiao Dengzi was about to agree, Ye Wuwei said, "No need. There are plenty of dishes left here, enough for the three of us."

Ye Wuyi started to eat while talking.

Little Dengzi looked at Qi Wushuang, Qi Wushuang waved at him, and Little Dengzi quietly stepped aside to serve.

Seeing Ye Wuwei eating like whirlwind, Qi Wushuang asked, "Didn't you have lunch?"

"I encountered a critical problem today, so I just ate a couple of bites."

Qi Wushuang had almost finished eating, and seeing that Ye Wuwei was eating in a hurry, he picked up a few pieces of food for him with his chopsticks.

Ye Wuwei didn't care about Qi Wushuang's actions and ate the food that Qi Wushuang picked up.

Chu Fuchi and Xiao Dengzi were shocked again: as far as they could remember, this was the first time Qi Wushuang had picked up food for someone else.

After eating half full, Ye Wuwei slowed down his eating speed and asked: "Your Majesty, do you want to talk to me about something?"

"There will be an annual banquet in the palace the day after tomorrow evening. You and Fu Chi will go with me."

Ye Wuwei remembered what Chu Fuchi had said a few days ago about "testing the poison" and replied, "Okay."

Qi Wushuang saw through Ye Wuwei's thoughts and his face darkened: "I didn't ask you to test the poison."

Qi Wushuang's original intention was to let Ye Wuwei show up in front of the nobles of Changdu.

"It doesn't matter. Even if it's poisonous, it won't kill me. At most, it'll ruin my mouth."

After hearing Ye Wuwei say this, Qi Wushuang's face turned even uglier.

Ye Wuwei was still unaware: "Your Highness asked me to come here just for this?"

Qi Wushuang calmed down and said, "I made 350,000 taels of silver from brewing wine. What reward do you want?"

Ye Wuwei was surprised: "So many?"

"Well, one thousand jars of wine were sold out."

Ye Wuwei smacked his lips and said, "There are so many rich people in Changdu!"

"But Your Highness, don't be too happy too soon. Just because you made a lot of money this month doesn't mean you'll always make that much profit in the future."

"I know. You told me that brewing methods are easy to steal."

"It's good that you know the number. If the prince really wants to reward me, please give me the silver."

"How much do you want?"

Ye Wuwei thought for a moment:

In modern times, sales commissions in the consumer goods industry are usually between 5% and 15%. Based on the lowest rate of 5%, a profit of taels can generate a commission of nearly .

However, this was in ancient times, and in everyone's cognition, it was natural to do things for those in power, so one should still lower one's expectations.

Ye Wuwei asked tentatively: "Ten thousand taels?"

Seeing Qi Wushuang didn't say anything, Ye Wuwei quickly changed his words: "If you think ten thousand taels is too much, five thousand taels of silver will also be fine."

Qi Wushuang said, "It's just ten thousand taels. I'll have someone send the money to your room later."

Ye Wuwei was overjoyed: "Thank you, Your Highness."

I didn't expect that after only two years in Qi Dynasty, he already has a net worth of nearly 10 million.

If this continues, I will be able to buy a house and a car, get married and have children in Chamdo in less than two years.

Because of his happiness, Ye Wuwei praised Qi Wushuang for a long time and even picked up some food for Qi Wushuang.

Looking at the bright smile on Ye Wuwei's face and the stars in his eyes, Qi Wushuang felt that the ten thousand taels of silver were well spent.

A smile appeared on Qi Wushuang's lips. He picked up the chopsticks that had been put down and ate the food that Ye Wuwei had picked up.
