Chapter 97

Being called by the emperor's name, Zhang Sicheng was cautious, "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"

"Let me ask you, how are those embroiderers preparing? The three-day period is approaching, if they can't produce the embroidery by then... Well, I will be held accountable."

Liu Xie said, his eyes slightly cold.

Zhang Sicheng was suspicious. If you want to punish those embroiderers, what does it have to do with me?

However, Liu Xie's next words left him speechless and a little aggrieved at the same time, "This includes you. If they can't get something out, you will be guilty of lax supervision. Remember!"

"My lord, I remember."

Zhang Sicheng gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and bowed to accept it. Liu Xie then snorted, walked out of the gate without looking back, got in his car, and drove back to the palace.

Time flies so fast, the three-day period is here in a blink of an eye, and today is the day for the embroiderers to submit their works for competition.

In the Changxin Hall, Liu Xie was wearing a sun and moon treasured cloak, sitting upright on the altar, while the embroiderers, led by the chief officials, entered the hall one by one and presented the works they had painstakingly embroidered over the past three days.

It has to be said that the craftsmanship of the Celestial Dynasty has been the best in the world since ancient times. Liu Xie looked at the garments made by his works. Not only were they exquisite in workmanship, but the embroideries on them were also very lively, and the birds, animals, flowers and plants were all lifelike.

There were 520 contestants, so naturally there were 520 works.

After all the embroiderers had submitted their submissions, Zhang Sicheng, at Liu Xie's instruction, took them out to wait for the selection results.

When there was no one else in the hall, Liu Xie lifted himself up from Danqi and threw himself into the hundreds of exquisite garments.

When Liu Jin saw this, he was confused and worried that he would fall and be injured, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help him, "Your Majesty, please be careful."

"Ha ha."

Liu Xie was in a good mood and turned around with a smile, "Little one, I ask you, do you know why I want them to rush to work on these many clothes?"

"Hey, your majesty just wants to see how their embroidery work is. Isn't this slave right?" As Liu Jin spoke, he had already helped him up.

Liu Xie nodded first, then shook his head, "What you said is right, but not entirely right. Testing embroidery skills is only one aspect, there is another aspect that is more important, and I want to explain this matter to you."

"oh?"

Liu Jin was startled and immediately asked carefully, "What are your orders, Your Majesty?"

Liu Xie pulled several pieces of ready-made clothes next to him and looked at them for a while, "It's actually simple. To judge the quality of these ready-made clothes, you go to a professional and choose fifty pieces to keep. As for the others...

Hehe, you secretly find an opportunity to take it outside the palace and sell it directly!"

sold?

Liu Jin was stunned, "Your Majesty, you want to sell all these clothes? That's not good. They are all sewn according to your figure. I'm afraid no one else can wear them after selling them, right? Moreover, these ready-made clothes are made of extremely high quality materials."

OK, who out there is worthy?"

"Boy, you don't understand."

Liu Xie took a deep breath and patiently explained to him, "The reason why I only let the embroiderers observe with their eyes without adding any tensor, except for the test, is actually because I deliberately asked them to make the garments in different sizes, so that it would be more convenient.

It’s easy to sell, but as for whether it’s worthy or not… as long as you give it enough money, I’ll be fine with it!”

Speaking of this, Liu Xie explained in a solemn tone, "But you guys don't do business at a loss. Although we only spent 5,000 yuan on these things, good things are worth every penny. Let me make a rough estimate.

, if you sell it all, you can probably sell it for about 60,000 to 70,000 yuan. As long as it is not lower than the total price, you can sell it for any amount."

This time Liu Jin finally understood that His Majesty the Emperor had reached this stage a long time ago and all the steps were arranged by him.

The previous time he sold palace furnishings and made hundreds of thousands, this time he could make sixty or seventy thousand by selling these entries. In total, didn't the emperor have more than four hundred thousand in his hands after the sales?

Want to send it!

And what made Liu Jin sigh the most was the emperor's business routine. He made money twice without spending any money. It can be said that the four words "borrowing chickens and laying eggs" were promoted to the extreme.

Isn’t this a business genius?

Seeing that he was laughing and couldn't make a sound, Liu Xie raised his hand and hit him on the head, "What's the matter, are you stupid? Let me tell you, this matter must be kept secret so that no one can discover it, and you have to prepare some more tricks.

I have some use for the ragged silk, so I will need it tonight."

"My slave understands. Your Majesty, just rest assured."

After Liu Jin agreed, he hurried to get things done. He knew best what the emperor wanted to do, so he didn't dare to delay. A few hours later, this all-rounder, the internal official, came back with great satisfaction to reply to the order.

"Your Majesty, this slave is back."

Liu Xie was lying on the ground reading a book. When he saw him replying, he sat up and said, "How about it? Have you done all the things I asked you to do?"

"yes."

Liu Jin gave a deceptive laugh and took out a piece of silk cloth from his arms, "Your Majesty, all the selected works are recorded here. The rags you want have been quietly transported in. As for those embroidered garments... Hehe, slaves too.

All sold."

"What?"

Liu Xie was surprised and happy, and quickly asked, "Boy, tell the truth, how did you sell so many clothes in the blink of an eye?"

"Your Majesty, isn't this difficult to handle?"

Liu Jin was quite proud at the moment, "How can I sell this? I'm following your example. I just thought of borrowing a chicken to lay eggs, and the next step is to lay chickens with eggs. Chickens can lay eggs, so I thought of selling these clothes."

Send them all to the embroidery shops where the embroiderers used to live. They are short of manpower now, so they must be out of stock, right?"

"smart people!"

Liu Xie nodded and was very pleased. They all said that Zhu Zhechi was the best. Wasn't this kid led by his own intelligence? But although he was very happy, what he cared about more was the price. "It's quite cool for you to do this."

Smart, but if you don’t sell it, you’ll lose money, right?”

"Look what you said."

Liu Jin chuckled and took out a bunch of gold ingots from his arms, "His Majesty said that those ready-made clothes can't be worth less than sixty or seventy thousand yuan. I was afraid that the shopkeepers would bargain, so I was so cruel that I offered one hundred thousand yuan. They were also happy, eighty thousand yuan."

Five deals were made, and the coins were difficult to carry, so I took it upon myself to replace them with gold ingots."

"Hahaha!"

Liu Xie was really happy. For such a long time, even though Liu Jin was just a eunuch, he had never let him down.

After taking the gold, Liu Xie untied a piece from it without hesitation and threw it to him, "Take this, I'm going to reward you. I didn't give you any reward last time. This time, let's forget it together."

sky!

Seeing so many ingots of gold in front of him, Liu Jin's eyes glowed green, and he was so rude that he knelt down and kowtowed to thank him.

"No need, I said I won't treat you badly, and I will keep my word." Liu Xie looked at the money and was in a good mood, but he was wary of danger. In the blink of an eye, his expression became solemn again, "Put the money away, now

It's not time to be happy yet, come here, I have something to tell you."

Liu Jin immediately stepped forward. After hearing the emperor's arrangement, his face was filled with surprise and endless respect.
