According to her words, if he took the tea set back, he could ask the craftsmen to make some more exquisite tea sets.
Then he gave it as a reward to several ministers in the court, asking them to take it back and make tea.
Then the other ministers who did not receive the reward would definitely be curious and ask questions privately.
If they knew at this time that this tea set was sold in a shop in Xianyang City.
Then will they be curious and buy one?
If I mention this shop a few more times and allow them to buy and use it at will, the chances of them buying it will greatly increase!
Ying Zheng raised his eyes and smiled, "Brother Qi, this is a good idea. Although Xianyang is a tourist village, there are really not many people doing business in this tea set business."
"I just opened the inn, and I'm really short of money right now."
..........
Qi Pan and Ying Zheng chatted for a while. Seeing that it was getting late, Ying Zheng made an excuse that he had something to do and left with a set of tea sets.
When they left the house, they took Eleven away and left another guard behind.
After they left, Qipan slapped his thigh and remembered that he had not gone to Xianyang for fun today!
Looking at the sun that had already set over the mountain, Qipan sighed softly.
"Oh... forget it, I can't play today."
"Take a shower early and go upstairs to bed."
She turned around and went to the back kitchen. Before she entered the kitchen, Twelve came out with a bucket of hot water.
As soon as he saw Qi Pan, he said, "Sir, the hot water is ready. Shall I bring it to you now?"
Qi Pan glanced down at the bucket in Twelve's hand and said, "Okay, take it to the bathroom. I'll go upstairs to get some clothes and will be there soon. Thank you."
After saying that, Qi Pan turned around and walked upstairs.
Twelve stayed where he was, scratching the back of his head sheepishly.
After a long while, he managed to utter, "No, you're welcome."
But Qi Pan had already walked away and didn't hear it at all.
After taking a shower, Qi Pan returned to his room and locked the door.
The weather was still a bit hot and humid at this time, so she closed the open window, leaving only a crack.
I lay in bed, took out my phone, and looked at the page that still showed no signal.
Sighed again.
well........
I don’t know what’s going on, there is no signal in this mountain.
I can't even access the internet.
Fortunately, she downloaded some novels on her mobile phone before going out, so she could read them even without internet.
Thinking of this, Qipan opened the library and looked through the numerous lists, one by one.
Finally, I chose a quick-travel novel and clicked on it.
Scanned the introduction.
Well, not bad.
I flipped back and continued reading.
...........
Xianyang Palace.
After Ying Zheng returned to the palace, he summoned the right prime minister Feng Quji to meet him.
At this moment, Feng Quji was standing in the center of the hall, bowing to Ying Zheng who was sitting at the top.
"I wonder what your majesty is calling me to do?"
Wang Wan, who was sitting behind a table on the side, holding a bamboo slip in his hand, had already pricked up his ears.
He was also curious about why His Majesty wanted to see Feng Quji.
Ying Zheng looked at the teapot, teacups and a row of tea pets placed on his imperial desk, then raised his eyes to look at Feng Quji.
"Mr. Feng, I am short of money."
ah?
Feng Quji was stunned!
What does your majesty mean?
What does it mean to be short of money?
He is short of it too!
Who among the civil and military officials in the court doesn’t know that the national treasury is empty?
But there's nothing I can do.
The treasury has long been empty due to years of war.
Military supplies, food, weapons and equipment, and relief for the people all require money.
Even if the national treasury has more silver and money, it is not enough to build it!
But he has no money in his house. Could it be that... Your Majesty wants him to donate some money?
Feng Quji raised his head slightly, glanced at Ying Zheng secretly, and said hesitantly.
"The treasury is empty, I know it, but... your government..."
Before he could finish, Ying Zheng said, "I want to do business."
What? ? ?
Your Majesty wants to do business? ! !
Feng Quji was so frightened that he raised his head quickly and stared at Ying Zheng.
“Bang!”
The bamboo slips in Wang Wan's hand fell to the ground.
He didn't have time to reach out to pick it up, and stood up hurriedly, "Your Majesty! No!"
"You are the monarch of the Great Qin, His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Qin. How can you do business?!"
"Among the classes of scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, merchants are the lowest and most despicable! How could you do this?!"
His words were harsh, but Ying Zheng's expression did not change at all.
He simply glanced at Wang Wan indifferently and said, "Then my treasury is empty. What can you do, Lord Wang?"
"Winter is coming in a few months, and we need to prepare warm clothing for the soldiers on the border."
"But the treasury has no money. Where will the warm clothes come from? Where will the military pay come from?"
"Has Your Majesty ever thought about this?"
this.......
Wang Wan's expression stiffened. "I understand what Your Majesty is saying, but engaging in business...is against etiquette and law."
How could an emperor go into business and pursue profits with merchants?
This is illegal.
If the people knew about this, how would they view Your Majesty?
What will they say about Your Majesty?
Ying Zheng said.
"If doing business can solve the problem of soldiers on the border staying warm, solve the problem of military pay, and improve the food supply of our Great Qin soldiers."
"I am willing to do it! I must do it! I even have to do it!!"
As long as the soldiers can be well fed, warmly clothed and equipped with the best weapons.
