Chapter 17: The Way to Make Money

"Nonsense, of course I know!" Yu Zhiqian glanced at Zhang Xiaojing, he didn't expect this guy to be so skinny.

"I'm talking about that, how to say it, it's legal, it's profitable, do you know what kind of industry there is?"

Zhang Xiaojing thought for a while: "Open a green building!" ”

"......" Ma wheat skin, Yu Zhiqian now wants to cut off Zhang Xiaojing's head to take a look, what kind of stuff is in it, he is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, and he is going to open a green building? Yu Zhiqian can't afford to lose that person!

However, Yu Zhiqian thought about it for a while, if he opened a green building, he felt a little excited when he thought about it, Yu Zhiqian quickly kicked out the miscellaneous thoughts in his head, what did he think? How could you open a green house by yourself?

"How much does it cost to open a green building?" Yu Zhiqian looked at Zhang Xiaojing curiously.

Zhang Xiaojing thought for a while: "Your Highness, money is a small thing, mainly girls, good girls are more difficult to find, those girls who can sing small songs are the treasures of every Qinglou, and there are those songs, Your Highness, just like people like Li Taibai, why don't you spend money to go to Qinglou?" Because they write a poem, it is enough for a Qinglou to spend a few months, so ......"

"I didn't expect Li Bai to be such a person!" Yu Zhiqian's mouth opened wide in surprise, Li Bai is really a model for my generation, you don't have to pay for going to Qinglou!

"Eh, is Your Highness really going to open a green building?"

"Ahem, ahem, I just mentioned it casually! But now you do need to make some money! ”

Yu Zhiqian randomly found a place and sat down, thinking about how to get money quickly, otherwise the entire East Palace would starve tomorrow?

"Why don't you go to the palace to eat? Crying poor with his own mother? Mother support point? ”

Yu Zhiqian thought about it for a long time, and it seemed that there was only one way that was more reliable, and after thinking for a while, he found that there was no better way but to gnaw at the old.

couldn't help sighing, in later generations, Yu Zhiqian didn't gnaw at the old, but in ancient times, he still had to gnaw the old.

"Okay, butler, you arrange for Lu Bu to sit down first, Zhang Xiaojing, you accompany me to the palace!"

Yu Zhiqian likes Zhang Xiaojing very much, how to say it, this guy belongs to the know-it-all type, just like some people who do things in the bottom of the society in modern society, if you have any questions to ask him (in addition to making money, getting rich, and getting promoted), he understands everything, and it is very interesting, and he can give you some surprises from time to time.

In the palace, this is the third time that Yu Zhiqian has entered the palace, although the East Palace and the palace are only separated by a wall, but Yu Zhiqian swears that he really doesn't like to come to the palace, and if he can, he doesn't want to come to the palace if he can.

Yu Zhiqian doesn't like the palace, it's lifeless, everyone looks serious, there is no life, and it's too big, Yu Zhiqian doesn't like big houses very much, he thinks the house is too big and unpopular.

"You wait for me here, if you're hungry, let this little eunuch take you to eat, hey, you!"

"Your Highness!" After the little eunuch who led the way for Yu Zhiqian and the others heard Yu Zhiqian calling him, he immediately gave Yu Zhiqian a salute.

"Later, if this thing is hungry, take him to dinner!"

"Yes!"

Yu Zhiqian patted Zhang Xiaojing's shoulder, and then walked forward quickly, as if there was something urgent, in fact, Yu Zhiqian had no money to reward the little eunuch, and when he did things in the palace, except for his cheap emperor father, everyone had to give money, this is an unspoken rule!

Of course, Yu Zhiqian didn't give money, not because he didn't have money, it was really not because he didn't have money, but because he didn't want to encourage this kind of unhealthy tendency, and the little eunuchs had to collect some kickbacks, so you can imagine what the rest of the officials in the world would be? Thinking of this, Yu Zhiqian felt heartbroken.

Well, His Royal Highness the Prince, who is worried about the country and the people, is definitely not ashamed of his pocket.

After going around for a long time, Yu Zhiqian finally came to the Fengyi Hall of his mother, but before he walked in, he saw Wu Sangui's dead eunuch standing in front of the Fengyi Palace, and he knew that his cheap father was also here.

"I can't eat anymore!"

Yu Zhiqian was instigated, without saying a word, he immediately turned around and left, his cheap father was here, and he would inevitably be reprimanded when he went in, as a person who was almost twenty years old and his soul was almost thirty years old, it was absolutely unacceptable.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Wu Sangui saw Yu Zhiqian, made a salute, and was about to report, Yu Zhiqian waved his hand: "Just don't see me!" ”

After finishing speaking, Yu Zhiqian left directly without looking back.

"There's no more food, and there's no way to gnaw on the old! Damn, money, rich heroes, it's hard to be a rich man! ”

Yu Zhiqian complained while continuing to walk towards the outside of the palace, at this time, he suddenly heard a whisper in his ears, as if someone was talking not far away, and he didn't hear anything else, and Yu Zhiqian heard the word silver.

"Silver?"

Yu Zhiqian's eyes lit up, and without saying a word, he slowly leaned over, and behind a rockery, he saw two little eunuchs communicating.

"This is the painting of the second prince before, when the second prince was in the palace, he rewarded me, there was an accident in my family, and now I want money, sell you cheaper!"

"The painting of the second prince? Fifty taels of silver! ”

"You're crazy, don't you think I know how much the second prince's paintings are worth? A painting outside is worth at least five hundred taels, and you give me fifty taels? ”

"That's the second prince's current painting, you are the second prince's previous painting, at most I will give you a hundred taels, I won't accept any more, you can find a way to get out of the palace and sell it, if you are discovered, hum, even if it is given by the second prince, you can't explain it clearly, you think about it yourself!"

"One hundred and fifty taels, one hundred and fifty taels, I will sell it to you!"

"Okay, deal!"

After listening to the conversation between the two people, Yu Zhiqian slowly retreated, is his second brother's painting so valuable? It seems that the Great Wei Court really didn't lie to itself in this book.

"The second child's painting is so valuable, my boss's painting shouldn't be worthless!" After thinking about it for a while, Yu Zhiqian already had a way in his heart and left the harem quickly.

"Your Highness, have you finished eating?"

Before Zhang Xiaojing had time to follow the little eunuch to dinner, Yu Zhiqian had already come out.

"What to eat, where is my dad, I will only be scolded when I go, go, I have thought of a way to make money!"

After Yu Zhiqian finished speaking, Zhang Xiaojing, who was pulled non-stop, returned to his East Palace.

"Butler, are there any paintings of mine in the palace? Take it out and show it to me! ”

After hearing Yu Zhiqian's words, the housekeeper Shen Wansan thought for a long time and shook his head: "Your Highness, you didn't like painting before, so you don't have any works!" ”

"Uh, is that so? Did I copy any calligraphy? ”

"That's it!"

"That's fine, give me the best two!"

"Yes!"

Soon, Shen Wansan brought two posters that Yu Zhiqian had written before.

"Your Highness, this is the calligraphy you copied when you were sixteen years old, this is the one you copied when you were seventeen, and it is the two best calligraphy in your works!"

After Yu Zhiqian heard it, he waved his hand: "Okay, you go down!" ”

After Shen Wansan left, Yu Zhiqian coughed lightly, and then quickly opened the copybook: "Zhang Xiaojing, what do you think of these copybooks?" ”

Zhang Xiaojing didn't know what Yu Zhiqian was going to do, but he still began to observe Yu Zhiqian's calligraphy with a learning attitude.

"How?"

After Zhang Xiaojing looked at it for a while, he slowly spoke: "Your Highness, this, this, this!" ”

"Don't do this, how's it?"

"Ahem, Your Highness, it's better written than the grass people!"

“……”

Isn't this nonsense? Yu Zhiqian is also handed over by various famous masters, his own prince and master, young master or something are all the best among the ministers, calligraphy and painting, although Yu Zhiqian is not very diligent and studious, but close to Zhu Zhechi, the word must be much stronger than Zhang Xiaojing's wild road birth.

"Then you say, are these words of mine worth anything?"

"Ahem, this, this, this!"

"Don't do that, tell you the truth!"

"That, that, Your Highness, maybe, should, be worth some money!"

Zhang Xiaojing said with some uncertainty.

"It's worth it, it's worth it, it's not worth it, this and that!" Although Yu Zhiqian said this in his mouth, he probably knew in his heart that his calligraphy and paintings might not be very valuable, and with a roll of his eyes, Yu Zhiqian thought of a good way.

"Wansan, Wansan!"

"The old slave is here!"

"Go and get the big seal of the main palace!"

"Yes!"

Yu Zhiqian's previous calligraphy and painting used a private seal, and it is estimated that not many people know this thing, but the prince's golden seal is different, everyone knows that this thing belongs to His Royal Highness the Prince.

"Look, in this case, it's not worth it!"

After taking the big seal, Yu Zhiqian directly covered the position below the inscription on his own handwriting.

"It's worth it, it's so valuable, Your Highness, it's high, it's really high!"

Zhang Xiaojing gave Yu Zhiqian a thumbs up, what kind of person is this, the dignified prince of the Tang Dynasty, after being short of money, he actually wants to start selling his calligraphy and paintings, and in order to worry that the calligraphy and paintings are not valuable, he has to print a big seal of the prince.

Now no one will think that this seal is fake, according to Tang Law, it is illegal to seal the official seal privately, and it will be beheaded.

"Okay, let's go, Zhang Xiaojing, go sell these paintings, more money, build a green building, no, restaurant, you can't sit and eat empty!"

Yu Zhiqian was satisfied with drying the seals on the two calligraphy and paintings, and after packing them up, he was ready to go out and start his own money-making plan.

"That, Your Highness, this is not good, after all, this is your seal, if it is sold, there may be some trouble in the future!"

The calligraphy and paintings of the prince, the emperor, and the prince or some things are all of certain political significance, and if they are taken by someone with a heart, no one knows what they will do.

Yu Zhiqian waved his hand: "It's okay, just two words, and when the prince has money in the future, he will take it back!" ”

Zhang Xiaojing looked at Yu Zhiqian, and his intuition told him that he would not just have these two paintings, but after thinking about it, he still didn't speak, and followed Yu Zhiqian, although this prince looks a little deviant, but it is very in line with Zhang Xiaojing's temper, and he can still let himself live.

East City.

Yu Zhiqian and Zhang Xiaojing stood at the entrance of the workshop, looking at each other.

"Childe, do you really want to sell it?"

"Of course, otherwise tomorrow the house will not be able to open the pot! You know, I don't want to do that either, but the reality is so cruel! After Yu Zhiqian finished speaking, he raised his head and looked at the air with some vicissitudes.

Some people at the surrounding intersection sighed after hearing the conversation between the two people, the two young people looked like signs, and they actually wanted to sell themselves, it was really the wind of the world, the wind of the world was going down.

"Okay, let's go, son, I know that there is a place dedicated to collecting these calligraphy and paintings, and the boss and I still have a little friendship, so we should be able to sell them at a high price!"

"Alright, let's go!"

Yu Zhiqian sighed and followed Zhang Xiaojing in the crowd of Dongshi and began to move forward.

If Yu Zhiqian went to Pingkangfang before and felt that there were a lot of people in Pingkangfang, then Dongshi once again refreshed Yu Zhiqian's perception of Chang'an.

"Why are there so many people today?"

Yu Zhiqian has been to Dongshi before, but he has never seen so many people, it feels like a supermarket in the later life, and the people around him rush over to buy like crazy, there are too many people, and they can only be carried forward by the crowd.

"The glass beads of the Western Regions, the glass beads of the Western Regions!"

"Suzhou silk, the best Suzhou embroidery!"

"Shu brocade, Shu brocade!"

"The best rice on the West Mountain is being sold cheaply!"

"Sell firewood, sell firewood!"

The shouting around is constant, selling everything, there are Su embroidered Shu brocade with every inch of gold, and there are also worthless firewood, as long as you can imagine something, you can buy it here.

In addition to the surrounding shops, there are also some hawkers interspersed among the mobile crowds, holding their own things and constantly peddling.

The east and west cities are the most dynamic places in Chang'an City, and the owners of the shops and the vendors who set up the stalls observe everyone who passes by with expectant eyes, and they will be particularly enthusiastic when they meet people who may be customers.

And the Chang'an people who are shopping around have also abandoned their cold expressions in the past, and often bargain with the vendors for a penny or two.

Yu Zhiqian basically spent this month in the Imperial Palace, East Palace and other places, although the food and clothing were brocade, but what was missing around was the smell of fireworks, which made Yu Zhiqian very uncomfortable, and no modern person would adapt to that cold feeling.

"How far is it!" Although Yu Zhiqian likes this kind of fireworks in the world, it does not mean that Yu Zhiqian likes this feeling of being squeezed and almost becoming a meat bun, and the hygiene of ancient people is a big problem, although many people take a bath, but there is no way to clean their hair.

In addition, it is May Day again, and Yu Zhiqian's surroundings are filled with all kinds of strange smells, fragrant and smelly mixed together, Yu Zhiqian almost didn't faint, and was holding his breath.

"Childe, it's almost here, it's almost there, it should be a big gathering today, otherwise there won't be so many people at this point!"
