Under such circumstances, Zhu Youxiao thought this was an interesting person. As for what Li Wanjin said, Zhu Youxiao didn't believe any of it.
Are you willing to donate all your belongings to the imperial palace?
You can just listen to this kind of words yourself.
Looking at Li Wanjin and listening to what he said, a smile appeared on Hu Fei's face.
He was actually worried about this matter. This was something His Majesty had asked him to do. If it was done well, it would naturally be beneficial; but if it went wrong, could you say it was His Majesty's idea?
You can only say that you didn't do your job well, and you will definitely be punished when the time comes.
Now Li Wanjin has stepped forward, which makes people very happy. Moreover, he has directly taken over the clothing part, which makes the things here quite interesting.
However, Hu Fei also knew Li Wanjin and knew something about his family background.
Li Wanjin was from Zhejiang and was a well-known figure among Zhejiang merchants in Beijing. If he could secure the deal, it would mean the entire Zhejiang Merchants Group had taken it, which would not only help consolidate his own business but also improve his status.
As for what to do next, that needs to be discussed again.
But as soon as he finished speaking, someone nearby started to protest. Someone stood up and said, "Li Wanjin, what you said is wrong. We are the ones who are most responsible for serving His Majesty."
"Besides, you, Li Wanjin, only have silk, but the nobles in the palace can't wear silk all day long, right? There are many fine fabrics in the world. You can't just think about yourself, you should also think about the nobles in the palace, right?"
This time, the person who stood up and spoke was a thin man with a somewhat provocative expression on his face.
Zhu Youxiao also looked at him, but his face was full of smiles.
As for the reason, it is very simple, because Zhu Youxiao found that his idea was still effective. Just look at how they started to fight for it. If there were not enough benefits involved, how could they fight for it like this?
After these two people, everyone else stood up and expressed their willingness, but they asked for different categories.
For a moment, the room was noisy and the atmosphere was very lively.
At this time, Hu Fei, who was standing on the stage, moved. He pressed his hand and said with a smile: "Everyone, please listen to me."
When Hu Fei spoke, everyone quieted down.
Hu Fei's face was filled with smiles, he knew that he had accomplished his mission this time.
With this achievement, I have successfully taken the first step, and I can give an explanation to His Majesty.
Hu Fei then said enthusiastically, "Since everyone is willing, please go ahead and sign up. Leave your name and address, and also leave a list of what you would like to donate. We can discuss the rest later."
"The Ministry of Internal Affairs will give everyone time to prepare the samples, and then we will select the best ones."
"Okay, okay." Everyone agreed.
Hu Fei took these people to register in a noisy manner.
Zhu Youxiao did not follow this time. His purpose of coming here had actually been achieved. He already knew how things were progressing, so there was no need to follow.
For Zhu Youxiao, this was actually enough.
He left with his men, smiling as he walked. In fact, before this incident, Zhu Youxiao had also thought about how to do it.
The initial idea was to sell the quota and receive a lump sum of money each year. This was the simplest and most convenient method, and it also brought in money quickly, but the control was weaker, and it was unlikely that the Imperial Household Department would be able to expand.
So Zhu Youxiao gave up this method and chose to directly invest, which is a kind of public-private partnership.
When the time comes, we can use it to make money together, and the money earned will naturally be divided according to the proportion. This approach will naturally ensure that the income will be more stable over time, and you can also earn more.
After weighing the pros and cons, Zhu Youxiao chose this method.
It's just that if things don't go smoothly, my own ideas won't be realized later, and it's unlikely to have any new effects. But judging from the current situation, the effect is still good.
After leaving the gate of the Imperial Household Department, Zhu Youxiao took Chen Hong and Qi Yuanfu for a stroll and even took people to buy a lot of gifts, saying that they were for Empress Zhang, showing what a good husband should be like.
By the time Zhu Youxiao returned to the palace, the sun was setting. After returning to the palace and taking a bath with the help of the palace maids, he went to Empress Zhang with gifts.
Upon hearing that Zhu Youxiao had arrived, Empress Zhang hurried to greet him.
Walking to Empress Zhang's side and reaching out to pull her up, Zhu Youxiao said with a smile: "Baozhu, there's no need to be like this. Let's all take it easy from now on."
As he spoke, he pulled Empress Zhang inside.
Looking at the food on the table, Zhu Youxiao said with a smile: "It seems that I have come at the right time."
Empress Zhang smiled and said nothing. It was obvious that His Majesty came here at this time to eat.
It was a happy thing that His Majesty was willing to come to her place for dinner. So Empress Zhang served Zhu Youxiao and started to eat.
After the meal, the leftovers were removed and warm tea was served.
The couple drank tea and chatted. Zhu Youxiao told Empress Zhang that he was leaving the palace today, and also praised Zhang Guoji.
