After hearing what the scout said, Li Shimin's expression changed slightly.
He quickly ordered Wang De to take the letter and read it carefully.
After a long time, he angrily threw the letter on the ground.
"Okay, I didn't expect that in my country of the Tang Dynasty, there would be people exchanging children for food. I am incompetent!"
After hearing what Li Shimin said, the expressions of a group of important ministers in the palace suddenly changed.
Then he hurried forward, picked up the letter, and started reading.
After a long time, they also lowered their heads in shame.
They are in Chang'an City and have never been out at all. How can they know about the suffering of the people?
At this moment, through the letter, all the pictures appeared in their minds.
After Fang Xuanling read the letter, he said bitterly to Li Shimin in front of him: "Your Majesty, the disaster is far more serious than we imagined. I am afraid that the money General Chai used for disaster relief will not last long..."
After Li Shimin heard Fang Xuanling's words, he felt extremely bitter in his heart.
Of course he is aware of this problem, but it is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without straw.
Now he can't get any money, which makes him very distressed.
I can only place my hope on this little guy Muchuan.
"Mu Chuan, I hope you won't disappoint me!"
Li Shimin muttered in a low voice.
According to the schedule, Longrich will publicly sell perfume today.
These days, Longrich’s advertisements and promotions are overwhelming.
For publicity, Muchuan had already spent ten thousand taels of silver.
Naturally, the soaps I purchased before were well received, which also accumulated a lot of reputation for Muchuan.
Therefore, when the perfume is launched at this time, the ladies of various major families are also looking forward to it.
After thinking about it for a while, Li Shimin said to Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui: "Come with me to Longliqi and see how many taels of silver this little guy can make today!"
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui smiled and nodded.
They had nothing to do, so since His Majesty was interested, they would just accompany him.
It just so happened that they were also very curious about Muchuan.
The three of them changed into civilian clothes, took a few personal guards with them, and walked straight into the inner city.
At this moment, the inner city is busy with traffic.
Even after walking a few steps, you can see a carriage carrying the family members of the ministers of the DPRK.
Fang Xuanling looked at the grand scene in front of her and didn't know what to say for a moment.
He smiled bitterly and said to Li Shimin beside him: "Your Majesty, this Muchuan is really a strange person."
He had only seen the scene before him when he went to court in the morning.
Li Shimin nodded with a smile, and then walked straight in the direction of Longliqi.
The entrance to Longliqi is now crowded.
Everywhere you look you can see the house slaves waiting anxiously in line to buy perfume.
"Your Majesty, let's go to the other side and take a look!"
Du Ruhui glanced at the dense crowd and pointed to the second floor of the teahouse opposite.
Li Shimin nodded and led everyone towards the teahouse.
Arriving at the window seat on the second floor, Li Shimin asked for a bottle of water and looked at Longliqi in front of him with thought.
At this moment, Shangguan Yi took out a red sign and placed it at the door.
I saw a few big characters written on the sign.
A bottle of perfume costs a hundred taels of silver, but only sells a thousand bottles!
Li Shimin looked at the font on the brand carefully in surprise.
This character is written in a majestic and majestic way. It is absolutely impossible to write this kind of character without decades of skills.
From the looks of it, this guy seems to be the shopkeeper of Muchuan store.
I didn't expect that Muchuan would have such a capable person. I really underestimated this guy.
Fang Xuanling also noticed the handwriting on the sign at the door. He smiled bitterly and said to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid there are not many people in the Tang Dynasty who can write this shopkeeper's handwriting."
After Du Ruhui heard Fang Xuanling's words, he smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"I can't do it, veteran!"
Although Du Ruhui usually likes to write, he can't do it with such majestic style.
In a simple comparison of words, he can't compare to this shopkeeper at all.
This made Du Ruhui feel very hurt and helpless.
Li Shimin smiled without saying a word and looked at Longliqi carefully.
The door of Longliqi's shop slowly opened, and countless domestic slaves rushed in crazily.
Seeing the enthusiasm of this group of people, Li Shimin remained silent for a long time, feeling extremely shocked.
If Li Shimin hadn't understood the situation, he might have thought that Muchuan was practicing sorcery. Otherwise, why would these people be so excited about spending money? It was as if they had gotten a treasure.
Before coming here, Fang Xuanling had also considered the booming business scene in Muchuan. But when he came to the scene and saw it, he was extremely shocked and couldn't believe it.
Damn it, how can business be booming here? These people are simply crazy!
At this moment, Fang Xuanling looked at Long Liqi in front of him, and then said speechlessly to Li Shimin in front of him: "Your Majesty, how long do you think this little guy Muchuan will take to sell these one thousand bottles of perfume?"
Li Shimin raised his head and glanced at the sky, then at the surging crowd, and said rather bitterly: "It should be fine before noon!"
Du Ruhui shook his head and did not agree.
"Your Majesty, I think it can be sold out in an hour at most!"
Fang Xuanling looked at Du Ruhui in disbelief and said, "Probably not. How could one thousand bottles of perfume be sold in one hour? You know, the price of this perfume is a hundred taels, and these one thousand bottles are just
One hundred thousand taels of silver, and you can do it in one hour? Even if I beat him to death, he wouldn’t believe it!”
Du Ruhui didn't explain too much, he just smiled and said to Fang Xuanling: "Old Fang, how about we bet a month's salary?"
Fang Xuanling nodded and agreed without thinking.
Li Shimin on the side smiled and said to the two people: "Okay, I will be a witness for you two in this matter. I will bet one month's salary."
At the moment, Li Shimin drank the tea in his hand leisurely, and then looked at Longliqi below.
Within Longliqi, Muchuan was already very busy and a little exhausted.
Shangguan Yi didn't even have time to look up, frantically recording every bill.
A few servants delivered the goods without a care in the world.
Li Lizhi and Jiao'er smiled and watched everyone busy.
Originally, Li Lizhi also wanted to help, but was stopped by Muchuan.
What Muchuan said at that time made Li Lizhi feel like she had eaten honey.
"You are a little girl, how can I keep you busy? Just sit down and rest."
Until now, these words are still echoing in Li Lizhi's mind.
Her face flushed, and she kept thinking in her heart.
This Muchuan really knows how to care for people.
Jiaoer is different from Li Lizhi. She is looking at the guests coming and going and the mountains of money on the table.
The momentum and sales speed this time are much faster than last time.
Less than an hour later, Muchuan breathed a sigh of relief after selling the last bottle of perfume.
I’m finally done, damn it!
Immediately afterwards, several house slaves at the door quickly closed the store door. Even some servants who had not bought the perfume tried to rush in, but were pushed out arrogantly.
Li Shimin looked at the cup of tea he had just finished. Longliqi was sold out? How is this possible?
At this moment, Li Shimin looked as if he had seen a ghost.
He is also well-informed, but he has never seen anyone earn a hundred thousand taels of silver for just one cup of tea.
Fang Xuanling was even more shocked than Li Shimin. He could even put an egg in his mouth.
