Cao Liexiao asked: "Since the letter has been established, you can make a request now. What do you think?"

Li Chi said: "My idea is simple. The first is to not spend my money, the second is to try to make it bigger, and the third is to make the best points."

Cao Lie: "There must be a theme."

Li Chi thought for a while and replied, "You can ask Mr. Wu, this matter was thought out by Mr. Wu, and he probably has prepared it."

Cao Lie nodded, carefully put the words written by Li Chi, and took the positions of the words that were collected in a very small manner.

Seeing Cao Lie going out, Li Chi asked again: "Why are you planning to do it?"

Cao Liexiao said: "There is less than a month left before the Lantern Festival. I plan to release the news. Any merchant and merchant who are willing to come to Yuzhou City to do business will be exempted from stall fees and only charges five-cost management fees every day."

Li Chi calculated that even if the streets in Yuzhou City were crowded, this didn't seem to be a big income.

If Cao Lie wants to run this Lantern Festival well, the silver he spent will never be able to ensure that he will not lose money by just such an income.

Li Chi felt that Cao Lie must have some other thoughts, but he not only said that.

The more he doesn't say it, the more he proves that his way of making money is relatively wild.

But Cao Lie looked like you asked me again and it was useless. This made Li Chi feel a little itchy. If you have money, you can't make money together, it would be a pain to Li Chi.

After Cao Lie left the Ning Prince's Mansion, he went to the Yuzhou Jiedushi's yamen to meet Mr. Wu, and soon after, he sat down in Mr. Wu's study.

Mr. Wu ordered someone to give Cao Lie tea, and asked with a smile: "The little marquis came suddenly, probably because of the lantern festival."

Cao Liedao: "How does Mr. Wu know?"

Mr. Wu smiled and said, "After all, our lord is...ahem, you are the only one who can withstand the lord's trap in Yuzhou."

Cao Lie also laughed: "I don't plan to be cheated again this time. I have already made three laws with the Lord."

He told Li Chi about his agreement, and Mr. Wu felt it was incredible. Such loose conditions were not as set by our lord.

Cao Lie asked: "Sir, this garden lantern festival always has to create a gimmick. The lord asked me to ask you."

Mr. Wu said: "I have thought carefully that if the gimmick is good, it can be promoted. In a month, countless people will come to Yuzhou City from all over the country. The biggest gimmick in our Yuzhou City..."

He looked at Cao Lie, and Cao Lie immediately understood: "Of course it's the lord."

Mr. Wu said: "We can't be cheated by the lord all the time. We have to cheat us occasionally. Anyway, it's all for the sake of the great cause, so the lord won't blame me."

Cao Liekiao: "What is that sir's thinking?"

Mr. Wu said: "Using the reincarnation of the lord, the reincarnation of the lord, when it is promoted, we must tell the people that this time we will tell everyone at the lantern festival that the scene when the reincarnation of the human emperor was also the scene of the human emperor fighting against Yama, the human emperor killing Zhulong, and the human emperor capturing the great bandits..."

Cao Lie's eyes lit up: "It's interesting, have you ever mentioned this idea by sir and lord?"

Mr. Wu sighed: "I mentioned it casually, but the lord said, don't be superstitious."

Cao Lie said: "Well, that's fine, do it."

Mr. Wu said: "What the lord said is, don't do it easily."

Cao Lie said: "The lord means, don't do it easily, just make it bigger if you want it."

Mr. Wu's eyes also lit up.

It was Li Chi who asked Cao Lie to come to find Mr. Wu, so isn’t this matter obvious?

A few days later, at noon.

While Li Chi and Gao Xining and the others were having lunch together, Gao Xining said while picking up food for Li Chi: "Yesterday, the little marquis Cao Lie came to see me and discussed something with me, and I agreed."

Li Chi immediately had a bad premonition and asked quickly: "What has he discussed with you?"

Gao Xining said: "He came to tell me that during the Lantern Festival, I asked me to open the Tingwei Mansion. How many people can visit each day? He said that the people are the most curious about the Tingwei Mansion. There must be many people who want to come in and see. Of course, those who want to come in and visit will have to charge a fee. The income is six and four."

Li Chi's eyes widened: "You agreed to such an unfair thing?"

Gao Xining said: "In order to make the people less afraid of the Tingwei Mansion, I actually wanted to do this, but now I can still earn 40% of the income, which is great."

Li Chi said: "Have he mentioned me about this dime?"

Gao Xining shook his head: "No."

Li Chi: "..."

Gao Xining said: "Take this opportunity to let the people know that the Tingwei Mansion is not the original Investigation Department, but the place where the people are to make decisions and deal with bad people. So I think I can really prepare well, and it should be done without charging money."

Li Chi asked: "Have he booked how much tickets he has paid?"

Gao Xining: "Not yet."

Li Chi said: "This guy has made money from Tingwei Mansion!"

In the afternoon, Li Chi went to the Jiedushi's Mansion for a walk. Mr. Wu was transferred to Qingzhou Jiedushi after the New Year. Li Chi wanted to come over and ask if Mr. Wu had any needs.

Just as I was about to enter the door, I saw a group of cavalry coming from the opposite side, about dozens of people, and the leader was Xiahou Zhuo.

When the cavalry saw Li Chi, they quickly dismounted and saluted.

Xiahou Zhuo took the lead in delivering the rituals. After all, he had to have the rules he should have.

The two of them walked into the door side by side, and Li Chi asked, "Why are you free to come here?"

Xiahou Zhuo said: "Yesterday, the little marquis Cao Lie asked me and discussed something with me. I agreed and needed Mr. Wu and Mr. Yan's help, so I came over and talked."

Li Chi: "What did that guy say to you again!"

Xiahou Zhuo: "Why do you say yes?"

Li Chi told the story of the Tingwei Mansion, and Xiahou Zhuo immediately laughed: "It's probably the same... Cao Lie found me and said that in order to show the might of the Ning army, he wanted the people to visit. I said that I could not enter the military camp, and Cao Lie said that it was natural."

Xiahou Zhuo said as he walked: "He planned to open the city wall and overlook the school ground on the city wall. He asked me to lead the team to practice the formation normally on the school ground. Formation practice is not confidential, so it's okay. He will give me 30% of the money he earned."

"Thirty percent?"

Li Chi said: "He is seven and three, have you agreed to this?"

Xiahou Zhuo said: "Anyway, I'm practicing normally on the Daying School. I have 30% of the money to get, which is great."

Li Chi: "Did he mention me about the money sharing? "

Xiahou Zhuo: "What are you talking about?"

Li Chi: "Hmph!"

Visiting Tingwei Mansion, the plum garden is so big, it is absolutely no problem to receive 10,000 people every day, and it doesn’t seem crowded.

The city walls are countless larger than the plum garden. The city walls have never been allowed to go up. This time, as long as the money is not collected, how many people can climb the city walls every day?

Together these two things, it is easy to earn more than 10,000 taels a day.

However, Li Chi felt that Cao Lie must have thought about this, and that the Lantern Festival would decorate Yuzhou City, and this expense alone would not be able to handle it without 100,000 taels.

I also have to buy and make a large number of lanterns and ribbons, and these things are cost-effective.

That guy Cao Lie must have bigger plans.

After entering the yamen, Li Chi found Mr. Wu and Mr. Yan, and couldn't wait to ask directly: "What did Cao Lie and the two gentlemen want?"

Mr. Yan said: "How did the lord know, what will he ask for from us?"

Li Chi said: "Does it still need to guess..."

Mr. Yan said: "Cao Lie asked the government office to grant him several large open spaces in the city. He was going to do business, but he had not said that if it was done, he would just say that if it was done, he would have to pay the 20% silver dollars every day, and the 20% of the money he earned was paid to the government office for accounting."

Li Chi: "Twenty percent do it too?"

Mr. Yan said: "The government office has unconditional support for the lantern festival. According to the agreement with Cao Lie and the rules set before, it is not allowed to charge a single copper coin."

Li Chi raised his head and looked at the roof, sighed with a slight wailing sigh: "This guy is pulling me."

A few days later, Li Chi knew what the purpose of Cao Lie was to pass the open spaces in the city.

Cao Lie actually found many storytellers, and each of them gave them different books and asked them to speak according to the books.

Some are the King Ning killing Zhulong, some are the strange phenomena from the sky when King Ning reincarnated, some are the ways in which King Ning and the princess get to know each other, and Ning Wang Xiongba Siyi Academy, etc....

If you want to listen to a book, of course you have to collect some tickets.

In the evening, Li Chi arrived at Songhe Tower.

Cao Lie was having supper. When he saw Li Chi enter the door, he laughed and guessed that Li Chi would be unable to hold back.

Li Chi was also very petty and ignored him, so he sat down and ate.

Cao Lie said: "From today, I come to my place to eat for free every meal every day, and you can't pay for it. After all, I rely on you for making money."

Li Chi snorted: "Hurry up and tell me how much I can."

Cao Lie said: "The projects distributed to others cannot be distributed to you anymore, but they do not include the bookstore, but are only limited to the bookstore. After all, you are also talking about you, and 10% of all the income belongs to you."

After saying that, Cao Lie looked at Li Chi and waited for Li Chi's storm-like offensive. After all, 10% of them were indeed not much.

"Done."

Li Chi did not hesitate, resist, or fight for anything.

This made Cao Lie feel a little uneasy.

Cao Lie squinted his eyes and asked, "Do you have any other requests?"

Li Chi shook his head while eating: "No, no, just give the money."

Cao Lie was really curious: "What do you want to do? This doesn't seem to be your style anymore."

Li Chi picked up the wine glass and took a sip, then took a breath.

"Save money, save money to Boss Gao."

Cao Lie was stunned. He never expected that such a reason would be.

Cao Lie asked: "Not to mention anything else, the silver you earn on the island in the middle of the lake is more than tens of millions of dollars. Do you need to worry about this little money?"

Li Chi said: "That's public funds, and marrying Boss Gao is my private matter."

Cao Lie said: "But didn't those three old gentlemen say that they would wait until... to get married again when they ascend the throne?"

Li Chi said: "Yes... it was considered a state affairs at that time."

Cao Lie: "Then what else do you want to save money yourself?"

Li Chi said: "I want to hold a wedding with her for ordinary people. State affairs are state affairs, and family affairs are family affairs. At that time, we were married for others. What we wanted was to be in the small courtyard of Jizhou City. It was simple, but solemnly, and we also held a wedding. My master and President Gao were sitting in the small courtyard. Boss Gao and I kowtowed to them and offered tea to them."

Li Chi looked at Cao Lie and said, "I haven't saved enough of this money yet... Her phoenix crown and her jewellery, all of which need the best, so I have to save enough slowly and not embezzle a public money of copper coins."

Cao Lie was shocked and immediately said, "There is no need for much, I'll do it."

Li Chi shook his head: "No, my marriage...I will do it myself."

Cao Lie: "Then I will share half of your income from the bookstore this time."

Li Chi: "Okay."

Cao Lie: "Ah!"
