Everyone left the stage and continued to walk around the zoo.

After shopping, Zhu Houxi looked up at the sky and said, "It's almost noon, and everyone is hungry." Lin Aiqing, there can be a fire room in the first zoo of Daming. ”

Lin Zhiyuan didn't react for a while, Lin Aiqing called him, and it wasn't until other adults looked at him that he came to his senses, and he couldn't help himself with excitement in his heart, and said secretly: "I didn't expect that I was the master of the Nine Grades, and today I also have the honor of being called Aiqing by the emperor." In addition to being grateful to Li Feibai for all this, who else can be grateful for? ”

Hurriedly saluted: "Back to the saint, the previous imperial dining room is still there, and Weichen has invited a few chefs with good skills, and has already prepared meals for the saint and the adults!" ”

Zhu Houxi nodded and said, "Okay, you Aiqing and accompany me to eat first, and then go shopping when you run out of food." ”

Lin Zhiyuan led the way, and the group came to the place to eat.

There were a few tables in the room, and Zhu Houxi sat at the innermost and most noble table to eat, and Lu Bing was the only one who sat with him.

Below him, there are two tables on the left and on the right, on the left are the cabinet members, and on the right are Guo Xun and other generals.

Below, there are six second-grade officials seated, and below are the second-grade officials.

Li Feibai and Lin Zhiyuan were not qualified to sit with the members, so they sat at a table with the four professors Kong, Yan, Zeng, and Meng of the Confucius Temple Professor Division.

The meals were placed on the table in turn, Yang Tinghe waved his hand, and said, "Feibai, come and sit here!" ”

Li Feibai was very helpless, Yang Ge really didn't forget to mix sand all the time. He got up and said respectfully: "The kid has no fame, and it's not appropriate to sit at the same table with Lord Lin and others, how dare you sit with the adults?" ”

Yang Tinghe turned his face and said, "If you want to come, you will come, why do you say so much?" Isn't it not to give the old man face! ”

Li Feibai didn't want to say anything more, got up and came to Yang Tinghe's table, arched his hand to the other adults, and sat next to Yang Tinghe!

Yang Tinghe glanced at Zhu Houxi, only to see Zhu Houyu talking to Lu Bing in a low voice, and he didn't seem to see it at all.

He smiled secretly in his heart: "The old man is the one who blatantly robbed you, but I want to see how long you can endure it." Even if you can endure it to the end, there will definitely be cracks, and you will finally give up Li Feibai. ”

At this time, Zhu Houxi suddenly raised his head, beckoned to Lin Zhiyuan, and said, "Lin Aiqing, you come to live here, I want to ask you something in person!" ”

Lin Zhiyuan was shocked again! Being able to eat in a room with the emperor is already worth bragging about for a lifetime, and eating at the same table with the emperor is no longer an honor that can be bragged, and it is almost envious of other officials!

He hurriedly got up, rushed to Zhu Houxi's table, made a big salute, and then sat down in the corner of the table. I didn't dare to sit all my butts on the chair, but hung my butt half out of the chair.

Zhu Houxi said: "Today, I am an eye-opener, and the first zoo of Daming is really a place that people will never want to return. There are so many animals here, have you collected all the animals in the world? ”

Lin Zhiyuan said: "The animals in the No. 1 Zoo of the Ming Dynasty collect less than one percent of the animals in the world. The minister must make persistent efforts to collect all the animals in the world in his lifetime. ”

Zhu Houxi was taken aback and said, "There are so many animals in the world? It seems that I have to come and have a look from time to time, and I have a long insight! ”

Other ministers also reacted like Zhu Houxi, they also thought that the first zoo of Daming had collected all the animals in the world, but they didn't expect that there were really only one percent, and they were interested in coming to the zoo in their lifetime to see, so that they could have a long insight.

Lin Zhiyuan hurriedly got up and saluted, and said, "The Holy One should be able to come often, that is the blessing that Weichen has cultivated for eight lifetimes." ”

Zhu Houxi smiled slightly, changed the topic, and said: "The leopard house itself has to spend 20,000 taels of silver to maintain every year, and now it has been changed to the first zoo of Daming, and there are so many more animals to raise, do you really have the confidence to turn it into a profit?" ”

Lin Zhiyuan glanced at the place where Li Feibai was sitting, but Li Feibai sat upright beside Yang Tinghe, looking at his nose and nose, and did not respond at all.

He turned around and said firmly: "Wechen has!" ”

Zhu Houxi said: "You tell me how to turn losses into profits." ”

Lin Zhiyuan has the experience of contracting Jidu Temple, and was recommended by Li Feibai to Yang Tinghe, after transforming the leopard house into the first zoo of the Ming Dynasty, he chatted with Li Feibai several times all night, how to make money, he was already familiar with it, so he said: "The first thing is to collect tickets......

From beginning to end, he told the door of how to make money. At the beginning, the items that collected tickets, sold food, sold incense, etc., all had full experience when they were in Jidu Temple, and they moved to the Daming Zoo according to the script. It's nothing more than a tenfold increase in the price of tickets and meals.

Who made the people of the capital rich? Besides, this was once the place where the emperor dealt with the political office, can the small Jidu Temple be compared? Is a ticket worth 100 cents? Not expensive at all! If there are too many people coming, he will continue to raise the ticket to 200 or even 300 wen.

And there is a reason why meals are ten times higher!

It was a meal made in the imperial dining room, and the emperor ate it. If you spend so much silver, you can eat the same as the emperor, is it expensive? Not expensive!

As for the sale of incense, it has been changed to sell feed to meet the needs of tourists who want to feed the animals. Of course, the price is also several times more expensive than the one on the market.

There was no project in Jidu Temple before, and some were added to the first zoo of Daming.

For example, there are many rooms in the first zoo of the Ming Dynasty, and these rooms can be rented out as inns, of course, the price is much more expensive than the outside, after all, it is the room where the emperor has lived, how can it be the same price as others.

For example, arrange some tour guides to explain what kind of animals you see, what they are capable of, and some small stories about it. Of course, it's not free, it costs money.

After saying all this, Lin Zhiyuan said unsatisfactorily: "Weichen thinks, if the First Zoo of Daming is managed properly, it should not be a problem to earn 100,000 taels of silver a year, and it is not impossible to earn 200,000 taels of silver a year." As for how much you can earn, it depends on the business situation in the first three months! ”

One hundred thousand taels of silver is not a small amount, and two or three hundred thousand taels of silver is not a small amount.

Zhu Houxi is no exception.

The leopard house is the imperial property, even if it is changed to the first zoo of the Ming Dynasty or the imperial property, the annual income of the imperial property will enter the inner treasury and be at his disposal.

Not to mention, changing the leopard room to the first zoo of the Ming Dynasty, and singing a drama slandering the emperor inside, so that the royal dignity is gone, these are all Yang Tinghe's meanings, and he will not blame Li Feibai.

Even if these are what Li Feibai meant, with so much income every year, he won't blame Li Feibai.

Zhu Houxi gave a rare smile and said: "Everything is left to you to manage properly, and if you do a good job, I will definitely reward you!" ”

Lin Zhiyuan said: "Weichen thanks the Holy Grace!" ”

As he spoke, he had run out of food. Zhu Houxi rinsed his mouth with tea and said, "I have a problem, I will sleep after eating, I don't sleep, I have no energy in the afternoon." You Aiqing are busy with something, so let Lin Aiqing and Li Feibai stay here with me. ”
