Zhu Yunxi walked around Yingtian Mansion and sadly discovered that any business that could make a lot of money seemed to have been written into the Ming Dynasty Laws by Lao Zhu...

For example, selling salt and selling horses are all official businesses. Once Lao Zhu found out that he was involved, he would not be able to hang himself up and beat him!

Besides, I don’t seem to have the capital, right?

But when Zhu Yunxi saw the rows of restaurants and teahouses on the street, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Uncle Thirteen, what do you think about opening a restaurant?"

When Zhu Gui heard this, he curled his lips in disdain and immediately poured a basin of cold water on Zhu Yunxi.

"That crap is a waste of effort and hard work, but it doesn't make much money. Who is stupid enough to open this thing?"

Zhu Yunxi's face turned dark when he heard this. Zhu Guiqiong's palace didn't even have a few decent pieces of furniture. How could he have the confidence to laugh at himself?

"The restaurant is quite profitable, right?"

"It's too troublesome, and all you earn is a piece of silver. It's not worth worrying about..."

"What about opening an inn?"

"That thing is more troublesome, it's better to open a restaurant..."

When Zhu Gui heard this, he suddenly turned around and looked at Zhu Yunxi jokingly.

"I said, eldest nephew, that's all you have for your future. Either open a restaurant or an inn?"

"Didn't you brag in the main hall that you were a business wizard and that you could create a business empire as long as you left the palace?"

"That's it?"

Zhu Yunxi's little face turned red after being scolded, and he couldn't help complaining.

"I have nothing now. I don't even have the start-up capital to start a business. How can I build a business empire..."

"How about, Uncle Thirteen, can you lend me some?"

Zhu Gui immediately shook his head and said.

"Don't even think about it. I can't even trust myself. How can I trust you?"

"Besides, there is no need for you to think about these things. As long as you coax your grandpa, you will get whatever you want..."

Zhu Yunxi was right after hearing this. He was guarding a big golden pig like Lao Zhu, so why did he have to work so hard to make money?

But when he thought that Lao Zhu only had a few more years to live, he felt depressed. Time waits for no one...

If I couldn't establish a good fiefdom during Lao Zhu's lifetime, and when Zhu Yunzhen's grandson came to power, I might not even be able to catch up with the fiefdom, and would be destroyed by Zhu Di's son.

But he couldn't say for sure. With his current relationship with Zhu Yunwen, he might be killed by his grandson before Zhu Di came in.

In short, the top priority now is to make money and find a way to get Lao Zhu to make himself king!

As long as you have a fiefdom, you can have an army reasonably and legally, and you will have the ability to protect yourself when the storm strikes!

"This won't work, that won't work either, then Uncle Thirteen, tell me, what other business can our royal family do?"

If Zhu Yunxi was angry at first, he never expected Zhu Gui to actually give his opinion.

"Actually, it's not like you can't do anything..."

When Zhu Yunxi heard this, he immediately felt that there was a way out and hurriedly urged.

"Uncle Thirteen, if you have any good ideas, tell me quickly!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Gui pointed to a nearby pavilion and said.

"Eldest nephew, have you seen that pavilion?"

"Yeah, I saw it. It's very tall and impressive. There are quite a lot of guests coming in and out. There are many little girls upstairs waving..."

When Zhu Yunxi said this, he suddenly felt something was wrong. Why did this scene look familiar?

"Uncle Thirteen, isn't this pavilion a brothel?"

Zhu Gui pointed to the sign and said.

"You don't know how to read it yourself. Doesn't that sign say Qin Yue Tower..."

"However, it's normal that you don't know. After all, you are still young and it is your first time out of the palace. How do you know about the romantic places outside the palace."

"Let me tell you, this Qin Yue Tower is known as the first floor in the capital, and the girl inside is so amazing, hehehe..."

Zhu Yunxi saw the wretched look on Zhu Gui's face, and thought with disdain, why don't we know? There were so many women on the computer in my previous life, so many that I couldn't even see them.

When Zhu Yunxi thought of this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he asked expectantly.

"Uncle Thirteen, do you want to take me to see you?"

When Zhu Gui heard this, there were ripples in his heart. He thought that he would be a feudal lord soon, and it might be the Year of the Monkey and the Moon of the Horse when he returned to Beijing.

Therefore, before leaving Beijing, you must experience the beauty of Qinhuai and try not to leave any regrets for yourself.

"It's not impossible..."

"However, this brothel cannot be used. This brothel is the property of your second uncle's family. It is a bit inappropriate for the two of us to go there. It will be easily recognized by your second uncle's family!"

"What?"

Zhu Yunxi was stunned when he heard this.

"Uncle Thirteen, didn't you just say that our royal family can't do business? How can we still..."

Zhu Gui immediately flicked Zhu Yunxi's little head.

"You silly boy, didn't I tell you the same thing? You just can't compete with the people for profit. Other businesses don't have so many restrictions!"

"Besides, in businesses like brothels and gambling houses, you can't make a living without a backstage!"

When Zhu Yunxi thought about it, this was really the case. Even in later generations, entertainment venues like this could only be run by bosses with backends.

Seeing that Zhu Yunxi didn't speak, Zhu Gui thought he didn't understand, so he patiently explained to him.

"Actually, there is no need for the palace to come forward. As long as you show your intention, someone will naturally come to you with money to form a partnership."

"You only need to show your name as a prince and settle the affairs of the government for them, and you can reap 30% to 50% of the dividends."

"so much?"

When Zhu Gui saw his eldest nephew amazed, he said sarcastically.

"Of course!"

"Otherwise, why would the second uncle's mansion be praised as a little palace by the people?"

"But this money is too low-key and has a bad reputation. Only your second uncle, a shameless person, can do it. We can't do this. If we want to make money, we have to learn from your third uncle!"

"My third uncle?"

Zhu Yunxi had a confused look on his face, and secretly wondered to himself which one my third uncle was, was it the wronged one that Lao Zhu mentioned before?

"Your third uncle's money is much cleaner. He never engages in these skinny businesses and only concentrates on the casino."

"Let me tell you this, one-third of the casinos in the capital are all under your third uncle's name!"

After hearing this, Zhu Yunxi exclaimed in his heart, "What a good guy."

This old Zhu has some strange behaviors, and he has a sense of superiority even when he opens a casino...

"Uncle Thirteen, besides brothels and gambling houses, can't we do anything else?"

“You can also collect taxes!”

"As long as you are not afraid of being punished by your grandpa, you can do whatever you want in the fiefdom!"

"For example, if you set up private checkpoints to collect taxes, you can collect taxes directly from the people, commercial taxes, tea taxes, you can collect taxes on any name you can think of!"

"You can also seize people's land, confiscate people's homes on random charges, etc. In short, there are many ways to make money!"

"If you are capable of fighting like my fourth uncle, you can directly steal money from the Meng Yuan tribe, or ask those small tribes to pay tribute every year!"

"We are all vassal kings. If we are just fighting like ordinary people, it would be very disrespectful to our status!"

Zhu Gui said it was natural, but Zhu Yunxi was frightened when he heard it.

I am still too small...

He has become a vassal king. He can obviously rely on robbing, but he still wants to do business honestly and make money. It is really low-level. No wonder he is looked down upon by Zhu Gui!

"Uncle Thirteen is so grand that my nephew is ashamed of himself!"

When Zhu Gui heard this compliment, he felt quite embarrassed.

"Actually, this is not the method I came up with. These are what your uncles are doing. I'm just refining and summarizing. I still have a lot to learn, hehehe..."

"Uncle Thirteen, you are so humble. In fact, you are already very good!"
