Shi Wushuang, who was watching from the side, looked more and more gloomy, and wanted to find a reason to mock Li Ye.
But I didn’t expect the opening ceremony to be so successful.
In particular, the song played by Ruyue Jun㹏 amazed everyone present.
Even Shi Wushuang, who prided himself on his unparalleled literary talent, had to admit at this moment that he was simply incapable of composing a piece of music of this level.
"Impossible! Based on my understanding of Li Ye, he has never created such a wonderful piece of music."
Shi Wushuang's eyes turned red with jealousy.
He deliberately arrived a little late, thinking that he would cause a sensation when he arrived at the scene.
Everyone's attention will be focused on you.
But the reality was completely different from what he imagined.
The opening ceremony of the Wu Road was very short, with a brief speech followed by firecrackers.
Then came the performance that everyone was most looking forward to, that of Ruzuki Gun㹏.
The song shocked everyone.
All attention was focused on Ruyue County.
After the road was opened to traffic, many people waited until all the carriages were on the road before going up to experience the beauty of the road.
I found that even walking on it was much easier than walking on ordinary roads.
Having experienced it myself, I no longer have any doubts.
Instead, they all praised him.
I think taking the highway is indeed a good choice.
Qin Qingxue was also quite embarrassed.
She had dressed up carefully for this day, but few people recognized her.
No one uses the title of General Changying anymore.
Compared to Li Ye and Yue Jun who have always been the focus of discussion, Qin Qingxue felt extremely disappointed.
Thinking back to when I returned to the capital after winning the battle and was welcomed by the people in the city, it was completely different from my current situation.
"Did I really make the wrong choice?" Qin Qingxue was a little dazed.
If he had not left Li Ye, he could have played such a piece of music with his own guidance, and it would have also shocked the capital.
Even though his piano skills are not as advanced as Ruyue Jun's, they are not too far behind.
By then, people will surely regard her as a person of both literary and martial arts, with extraordinary talents.
Qin Qingxue felt a little regretful and became more jealous of Ruyuejun.
If Li Ye had shown his literary talent and fighting ability earlier, he might not have chosen Shi Wushuang at all.
If Ruyue Junyu had not been with Li Ye, he would definitely have had a chance to be with Li Ye.
It is precisely because of Ruyue Jun that he avoids his own demons.
Qin Qingxue suddenly felt very bad and said helplessly: "No matter whether Li Ye composed this song himself or not, he has been a master of music since ancient times.
Unless there is evidence that he plagiarized.
Otherwise, no matter what you say, it is slander against him."
Shi Wushuang was so jealous that his teeth were almost broken.
He couldn't accept that Li Ye was stealing his limelight everywhere.
"Hmph, his days are almost over! Let's go! Send someone to rob and kill the caravan immediately.
As long as no business ventures into the north, he will never make any money this way.
Let all those who invested money to support him lose everything.
Let’s see how he responds!”
Shi Wushuang snorted coldly, pulled Qin Qingxue and turned away.
As soon as he arrived at Qin's house, he called someone.
"You must inform the Barbarian King as quickly as possible and tell them to rob all the caravans from Dayuan.
As long as there are no caravans, this road cannot be sustained.
This is the best way to deal with Li Ye.
Not only the barbarian territories, but all other countries will not allow the Dayuan caravan to pass through."
"I know, I will definitely pass on the news."
Shi Wushuang sneered, "I want to see how you deal with it when the caravan is completely robbed.
Li Ye, Li Ye, these businesses are doing business with your reputation, so you must take full responsibility."
At night, Li Ye booked a restaurant and hosted a banquet for all those who invested money in the road construction.
Even the King of Side by Side came in person to show his support.
Everyone's face was filled with joy, because Li Ye was going to announce the day's income at the banquet.
Wait until everyone is seated.
Li Ye took the account from the shopkeeper.
Although the dishes on the table were very tempting with their appearance, aroma and taste, all the shopkeepers' attention was focused on Li Ye at this moment.
I can't wait to know my income today.
Li Ye opened the account book and looked through it for a few seconds before putting it down.
He said to everyone with a smile: "The accounts for the day have been calculated. You may as well guess the income amount."
A Chinese man in gorgeous clothes immediately said excitedly: "There are quite a few caravans on the first day. In less than an hour, there are more than a hundred carriages.
Calculating at this rate, it would probably be several thousand taels of silver, right?"
"Absolutely not only that! In addition to businesses trading with the grasslands, many businesses doing business in the north also choose our highway.
There are also many medium and short-distance caravans.
So the price is less for short trips, but the number is huge!"
"We'd be very satisfied if we could earn 10,000 taels of silver. If we can do it within three days, we can make a lot of money."
"Your Highness, please stop keeping us in suspense and tell everyone as soon as possible.
We've invested so much money, and now we're all looking forward to it."
…
"Well, since everyone is anxious to know today's income, I'll tell you.
There were a total of 800 horse-drawn carriages for foreign caravans, and more than 100 horse-drawn carriages for caravans within Dayuan.
The total income for the day was 27,650 taels, 3 qian, and 7 wen."
Hearing this number, everyone present gasped.
The boss stared at Li Ye with his eyes wide open in disbelief.
I knew there were many caravans that day, but I didn't know there were more than a thousand carriages.
"Really? If you calculate it this way, I'll probably be able to make money in less than a penny. Wouldn't the remaining pennies be enough to make a fortune?"
"Hey, I never thought building a road could be so profitable.
If I had known this earlier, I would have invested more!"
"Oh, it's all my fault for being so stingy! The amount I invested was too little. If I had invested all the extra money at home, I would have been completely rich."
“It’s still the old man, the King of Binxiang, who has the courage to take over the entire house.
How could I be so stupid?
They invested so much money, they must know how to make money.
I'm still worried about this and that."
Although they know they can make money, many people regret it.
Such a great opportunity to make money but no one seized it.
After all, most people only invest a small portion of their money.
If you make less money, you feel like you’re losing out.
Listening to everyone's discussion, Li Ye smiled and said, "This is the first day, business is normal now.
Many caravans wanted to have a companion on the journey together.
In addition, the amount of grain and fodder transported to the imperial court was also considerable.
This resulted in very high revenue on the first day.
According to my estimation, under normal circumstances, an average income of seven or eight thousand taels of silver per day is enough.
Of course, if business goes smoothly in the future, I can come up with a deal and maybe my income will be even higher."
