In fact, Gao Ming has set the business strategy of the royal club early in the morning, that is, high-grade and high-charge. Remember [Qianqian w w.x q q x o m] in one second, and provide you with wonderful reading. Please search () to see the most complete! The fastest update
The high-grade is naturally brought by those princes and princesses, so Gao Ming lets them eat and play for free, anyway, there are only so many of them, and the expenses are not too big.
And the channels for Gao Ming to get money are mainly those ministers with silver and bronze brands, and they are the objects of Gao Ming's hard "slaughter".
The most important thing is that the people who were "slaughtered" are quite happy, such as the eldest grandson Wuji, who is now holding two boxes of dry tea.
"Oh, this palace imperial tea is really amazing, the old man has lived for most of his life, and it's the first time to drink such a delicious tea!"
As he spoke, he carefully stuffed the two small wooden boxes containing tea leaves in his hand into his arms, and then arched his hand towards Gao Ming.
"I heard that everything here is available in limited quantities, and this friendship is remembered by the old man."
Looking at the polite appearance of the eldest grandson Wuji, Gao Ming suddenly laughed.
"Where did my uncle say that? You are not only my uncle, but also my minister of the Tang Dynasty, what is the value of just tea? If you want to buy tea in the future, just come to me, and I will give you a 5% discount! ”
Seeing Gao Ming so happy, Eldest Sun Wuji suddenly smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed.
"In this way, the old minister thanked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in advance!"
"You're welcome, hahahaha!"
Gao Ming's happiness is naturally not pretended, because when he received these teas, it was three catties a penny, after frying, rolling, and drying three processes, one or two to buy the same money, this profit can be said to have increased tens of thousands of times, basically no different from robbing.
The most important thing is that the person who was robbed can still be so grateful to Dade, so that Gao Ming has made money and earned favors, Gao Ming suddenly felt that this business was too cost-effective, so his smile at the moment was very sincere.
At this time, Cheng Yanjin also came over.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, I don't want this tea Lao Cheng anymore, but do you see if this wine is ...... Hey hey ......"
Looking at Cheng Biting Jin with a smile on his face, Gao Ming suddenly frowned in embarrassment, and then smacked his mouth.
"Tsk...... Uncle Cheng, to tell you the truth, the brewing of this palace wine is very laborious, and the quantity is very small, so I sell it by the cup, but Uncle Cheng, you want it, so let's do it, I will give you this jar of wine at the price of five yuan, don't tell others. ”
Hearing Gao Ming say this, Cheng Yanjin immediately laughed happily, and reached out to pat Gao Ming's back while laughing.
"Okay, Your Highness is really refreshing, but my old Cheng doesn't take advantage of you much, so let's take two altars!"
"Thank you Uncle Cheng for your understanding!"
"Hahahaha, it's easy to say, it's easy to say!"
After getting rid of Cheng Yanjin and the eldest grandson Wuji, Gao Ming's mood became better and better, and he walked around the club with a smile, saying hello to acquaintances or something by the way. Remember [Qianqian w w.x q q x o m] in one second, and provide you with wonderful reading.
After going upstairs and downstairs, Gao Ming came to the counter at the door and smiled at the little girl in front of the counter.
"Yun'er, how much money did you collect today?"
This girl named Yun'er is one of the servants brought by Gao Ming from the workshop, and before entering the workshop, she was the daughter of a merchant, and Gao Ming saw that she could write and calculate, so he specially asked her to be a cashier in front of the counter.
At this time, Yun'er had just finished exchanging chips for an official, and when she saw Gao Ming coming, she hurriedly blessed him.
"Returning to His Royal Highness the Prince, from Chenshi to the present, there have been more than 700 yuan, of which 130 yuan have been sold for palace wine, 80 yuan for palace imperial tea, 27 yuan for palace cakes, and the rest are all for chips."
Hearing Yun'er's words, Gao Ming immediately laughed.
"It seems that it is human nature to get something for nothing, Yun'er, you remember, a chip to buy chips is always money, and those who exchange chips for money will be charged a 10% handling fee."
"Yes, His Royal Highness the Prince!"
After ordering the counter, Gao Ming saw that everything was normal in the royal club, so he went back to the palace with confidence.
At this time, Su Wan'er had already asked people to prepare lunch, and as soon as Gao Ming went back, he immediately ate a hot meal, and after eating, Gao Ming was about to take a nap, but he had just laid down for a while, and Liu Bing came.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Your Majesty asked you to go to the Imperial Study."
"Oh, got it!"
Hearing that Li Shimin let him pass, Gao Ming didn't dare to slack off, so he simply cleaned up and followed Liu Bing.
As soon as he came to the small courtyard of the imperial study, Gao Ming was stunned by the scene in front of him.
I saw that at this time, Li Shimin was sitting on the stone bench in the middle of the small courtyard, Li Zhi and Li Tai were sitting on both sides of him, and there were some food and drinks on the stone table in front of them, and the three of them were eating and drinking while talking.
Is this a family reunion?
When Gao Ming was stunned, Li Shimin also saw him and beckoned to him.
"Gao Ming is here? Come and sit! ”
"Yes!"
Gao Ming agreed, and came to sit down opposite Li Shimin, and after he sat down, Liu Bing immediately came up and poured him tea.
At this time, Li Shimin suddenly laughed.
"A glass of wine is 100 Wen, a tael of tea is always money, even this cake, you dare to sell a stack of 188 Wen, Gao Ming, your royal club is probably higher than the tax of my country in a year, right?"
Hearing Li Shimin's words, Gao Ming suddenly showed a reluctant smile.
"Uh...... Hehe, these are just small amounts of money, not enough to worry about, by the way, old man, have you eaten it? ”
Seeing Gao Ming's blunt transfer of words, Li Shimin's eyes suddenly twitched, and his smile was put away.
"Gao Ming, this treasury is empty, I can't eat it!"
“……”
At this time, Gao Ming thought it through, Li Shimin was planning to ask for money, and since the words were said to such a point, Gao Ming couldn't pretend to be stupid, as long as he tried Li Shimin hard.
"And how do you keep eating?"
Seeing Gao Ming's "road", Li Shimin's face suddenly smiled even more.
"If the treasury can have an extra million yuan a year, I will be able to eat and sleep."
“……”
As soon as Li Shimin's words came out, Gao Ming's face suddenly darkened.
A million a year? Is that the food you eat? That's a golden lump!
Thinking of this, Gao Ming's eyes twitched twice, and then he showed a wry smile to Li Shimin.
"Old man, I think you should have found out the truth and truth of my little place, right? Do you think you can make a million a year there? ”
Hearing Gao Ming's words, Li Shimin was noncommittal, just took a sip of tea very calmly, and only spit out a sentence lightly after a while.
"I'm sure you'll have a way!"
At this time, Gao Ming finally realized the true meaning of the phrase "you always have to pay it back when you come out", he just "slaughtered" those ministers, and was "slaughtered" by Li Shimin when he came back, and Li Shimin was much more ruthless than him.
Looking at Li Shimin, who had an indifferent face, Gao Ming suddenly smiled bitterly again.
"Old man, no matter how good the business of the club is, 500,000 guan a year is already up to the sky, even if you add the bronze plate sold to the family gate valve, you can get more than 200,000 guan at most, you should understand the reason that it is too much!"
Li Shimin obviously ignored Gao Ming's complaints, and after Gao Ming finished speaking, he took another sip of tea, and then smiled slightly.
"I don't care about this, you can figure it out yourself!"
“……”
Seeing that Li Shimin began to play a scoundrel, Gao Ming suddenly closed his eyes and began to think, seeing this scene, Li Shimin did not bother him, just smiled and continued to drink tea.
After a long while, Gao Ming opened his eyes, and then looked at Li Shimin fixedly.
"Okay, it's okay to have 100 times a year, but I have one condition."
Listening to Gao Ming's words, Li Shimin's face suddenly showed a trace of surprise.
In fact, Li Shimin planned to embarrass Gao Ming at the beginning, the reason was that Gao Ming made fried tea and distilled liquor and was not the first to send it to him to taste, so he planned to give Gao Ming some color to see, so that he could deeply realize his mistake.
Li Shimin did investigate the Datang Royal Club, in his opinion, the Royal Club can earn 500,000 yuan a year, which is already very remarkable, because now the tax revenue of the entire Datang is less than 1 million yuan, so this is an impossible task, but what he didn't expect was that Gao Ming actually said that he had a way!
You know, that's not a hundred yuan or a hundred yuan, that's a full one million, which is equivalent to the tax of Datang's harvest year!
So at this moment, Li Shimin's face also became serious.
"On what terms?"
Looking at Li Shimin's serious face, Gao Ming suddenly stretched out a finger.
"I need you, old man, to go to the Royal Guildhouse once a month, and you must stay there for a full day after you go!"
Hearing Gao Ming's condition, Li Shimin was stunned for a moment.
"That's it?"
It turned out that Li Shimin thought that Gao Ming would give some difficult conditions, but he didn't expect that he would just let him go to the royal club for one day a month, this is too simple, okay?
Li Shimin had heard Li Tai and Li Zhi say before, the royal club in Gaoming is a good place to pass the time, play chess, drink tea, play mahjong, the day has passed, it is simply a good place for leisure and entertainment, what is the difficulty of staying there for a day?
Thinking of this, Li Shimin immediately nodded.
"Okay, I promise you that I will go to your club for one day on the first and fifteenth days of each month, and in exchange, you will hand in 100,000 yuan to the household department every month."
Hearing that Li Shimin agreed, Gao Ming was immediately overjoyed, and stretched out his palm towards Li Shimin.
"It's a deal!"
Seeing Gao Ming's action, Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.
"Okay, it's a deal!"
After speaking, Li Shimin also stretched out his palm, and then high-fived Gao Ming, which was considered to have completed the agreement.
Gao Ming has never had to disappoint Li Shimin, so Li Shimin also trusts Gao Ming very much, and now since Gao Ming said that he can give him one million yuan a year, then Li Shimin believes that he will definitely not break his promise.
The treasury can have an extra million yuan a year, which is equivalent to two years of taxes, and all expenses will be much more generous at that time, thinking of this, Li Shimin's face also smiled.
"Gao Ming, why do you want me to go to your clubhouse for a day or two every month?"
Hearing Li Shimin's words, Gao Ming replied without thinking about it.
"Do you need to ask? Wanhualou has its own top card, of course we have the Tang Royal Club, old man, you are the head card of our Datang Royal Club, let you go of course to pick up guests! ”
As soon as Gao Ming's words fell, Li Shimin's face suddenly darkened, and Li Tai and Li Zhi, who were sitting on both sides drinking tea, immediately squirted out all the tea in their mouths.
"Poof......
