Queen Zhou was very excited when Chang Yu woke up suddenly. She said a lot of considerate words to her, some of which were meant to win over her, but there was also sincerity. Chang Yu was indeed moved by it. The royal family treated him well, so he saw that
For the sake of family ties that Empress Zhou regarded as her own son, he had to work hard for the Ming Dynasty. However, the little royal girl who was flirted with by her was running wildly in her heart. She stood aside with a blushing face, lowered her head and bit her lip without saying a word.
She didn't say anything. Fortunately, Queen Zhou's thoughts were focused on Chang Yu and she didn't care.
Of course, Li Muxian would not miss such a good opportunity to show off. He kept interjecting at every opportunity, hinting at his wonderful rejuvenation, and even flattered Chang Yu by saying that the reason why Chang Yu woke up early was because of the arrival of Queen Zhou. Anyway, what he said was amazing, and Queen Zhou actually
I was convinced, and thought to myself, the emperor has been here before, and the emperor has also been here, and he has never woken up, but as soon as he comes to the door, hey, it’s done!
This is not a palace, there are not so many rules and there are not so many fears. Queen Zhou became more talkative. She sat on the bedside and held Chang Yu's hand. She was concerned about his condition, chatted about household matters, and discussed some state affairs.
, and even asked about how to train and discipline Zhu Cixiang. It can be said that she almost talked about everything. At this moment, she was no longer the queen who aloof and respected her mother, but more like an ordinary mother chatting with her son about daily life.
, although she was only thirty-four years old at this time, Chang Yu's age in later generations would be almost the same as him.
It was getting dark, the imperial city was about to be locked up, and Queen Zhou was about to return to the palace. Although she looked like having a simple home-cooked meal with Chang Yu in the Chang Mansion, she couldn't. It would be disrespectful to spread the word.
How could the queen go to a eunuch's house and have dinner at his house?
"Queen, can you please let Her Royal Highness stay at your residence for a while? I have something to teach him. How about I send him back to the palace later?" Just when Queen Zhou was about to leave, Chang Yu suddenly made this request, and everyone was surprised.
, Empress Zhou was also surprised, but she nodded in agreement almost instantly: "Don't be too late, otherwise it will be difficult for me to tell the emperor."
Empress Zhou would never think about the love between her children. It is absolutely impossible to have a eunuch and a princess, a master and a slave. Moreover, Chang Yu is an upright man and would not have such unreasonable thoughts even if he has a very good reputation in private.
Yes, and he also knew that the personal relationship between the prince, Kun Xing and Chang Yu was very good. They were called monarchs and ministers but were as close as brothers and sisters. Since Chang Yu said he wanted to teach Kun Xing something, it was definitely a serious matter. She
Although she was curious, she didn't ask any more questions at the moment because she knew Kun Xing would tell her when she got back.
Queen Zhou returned to the palace, leaving behind Kun Xing and her personal maid Ping'er.
Kun Xing still sat with his head down and said nothing. Lian Xin helped Chang Yu feed the medicine and then turned around and went out. Ping'er also followed her out knowingly. Kun Xing wanted to reach out and pull her, but the raised hand retracted. Chang Yu lay down.
I couldn't help but laugh when I saw her shy and nervous look on the bed.
Why are you laughing? If you want to tease me again, I will be really angry. Kun Xing said angrily. Chang Yu didn't dare to tease her casually when he saw the look of approval on her face, so he said, "Your Highness, do you know why I want to keep you?"
"There is no one else in this room, not your Highness's ministers," Kun Xing pouted. Chang Yu smiled and said, "You just called yourself me, but you scared me."
"Besides, are you afraid of me?" Kun Xing was finally not as shy as before: "You went to Yunnan for so long before you came back, and the queen mother said you suffered a lot."
Chang Yu waved his hand lightly: "Just treat it as an outing. Apart from the pain of the journey, there is nothing else and I still make some money."
"You, you, you are full of money. Tell me about your trip to the south. I heard from my brother that what you did in the south was very exciting." Kun Xing looked excited. She finally regained her sense of belonging. She is so active at this age. This is not a palace, she has no parents, brothers, or followers around her. There is only the person who understands her thoughts best, so she is very relaxed.
"It's a long story. It's getting late and I don't have time to finish it. I'm not keeping you here to tell stories, but to tell you something serious." Chang Yu looked serious and instantly aroused Kun Xing's interest: "I heard It’s here”.
"Are you bored in the palace?"
Princess Kunxing thought for a moment: "Every day I read books, practice calligraphy and write about female celebrities. I say it's boring but I have something to do, and I say I have something to do but it's all boring. Why do you ask?".
"So I just write and draw and become a female celebrity. I repeat this every day until I get married and raise my children for the rest of my life, right?" Chang Yu chuckled, but Kun Xing's expression became serious: "You want to express "What, I was born in an emperor's family. Although this kind of life seems boring, it is still a dream of many people. At least I don't have to suffer from the wind and sun, what is there to be dissatisfied about?"
"Being content doesn't mean settling for the status quo and waiting to die. Why not... let me put it simple. Do you want to do something?" Chang Yu also became serious. Kun Xing raised his eyebrows: "What's the matter? I'm not following you to peace. Let’s suppress the bandits.”
Chang Yu couldn't help laughing: "If you don't have the strength to fight a chicken, can you march and fight, or can you charge into battle?"
"Perhaps you can give me some advice." Kun Xing even thought it was funny when he said this. As expected, Chang Yu said ruthlessly: "Your level is not even as good as those who talk on paper, so who can you give me advice for?"
Kun Xing sighed: "Then tell me what I can do."
"You just said that being born in an imperial family is the envy and dream of countless people. Why not use this to create a royal brand, mainly selling makeup, jewelry, hand red and the like..." Chang Yu said his plan, and Kun Xing seemed to understand. I don’t understand what a brand is and why it sounds like selling something.
"You can understand the brand as the name of the business, such as Huangshang Octopus, Zhang Ji who buys soy sauce, Luo Ji who sells silk..." Chang Yu patiently explained one by one: "The royal relatives of the capital, the high-ranking officials, and their families have countless honors and honors. Women are all high-quality customers. This potential market is very large. If you run the business well and make a lot of money every day, you may become the richest woman in Ming Dynasty, own the most valuable brand, and your life will become richer. Do you understand the meaning?"
Kun Xing swallowed, his expression already a little excited, as if he understood something: "Please explain in detail."
"Rouge, gouache, gold and silver jewelry, and silk and satin are necessities for women. You can start from here and create a royal brand to specialize in these products. You can even sell products that you design yourself, and make them in limited editions. The less they are, the more sought-after they are. Do you imagine these wealthy ladies and rich ladies, are they short of money? Of course there is no shortage. Not only is there no shortage, but they also like to compare. Between ordinary commodities and royal brands, they must be proud to buy royal brands... "
Chang Yu has never been in business, but as a person who has traveled through time in later generations, he has gained hundreds of years of experience. He has never eaten pork and has seen pigs run away. He knows the importance of brands. The more luxury goods, the more countless consumers there are.
People who have money and status are not short of money. They need luxury goods to show their taste and identity. Those who don’t have money will buy one or two if they work hard to make money, either to satisfy their vanity or to socialize, maybe
Just because I like it, I never have to worry about selling it.
Now, Chang Yu will help Princess Kunxing create luxury goods for women in the Ming Dynasty, because no matter through the ages, women's money is the best to earn.
Kunxing is not stupid. Although Chang Yu's business philosophy is advanced, such as limited editions and hungry sales, she understands it after a brief explanation and feels that it is very feasible. In just half an hour, she couldn't sit still and drew inferences from one example to another.
He suddenly had a lot of new and novel inspirations coming to him. Perhaps this is because artistic people are particularly sensitive to inspirations, and she couldn't wait to implement them immediately.
"Do you have any capital?" Chang Yu, who said with a dry mouth, went straight to the topic. Kun Xing thought for a moment: "Is it enough to have a few hundred taels?"
Chang Yu thought for a moment: "If you want to build a small shop little by little, it's enough, but we are a royal luxury brand and everything needs to be grand and heroic. This little money is only enough to decorate the store." Kun Xing couldn't help but frown.
He raised his eyebrows and rubbed his hands nervously: "Why don't I hear that my mother will do something better..."
"Hey, starting your own business only shows your ability. Don't look to your father or mother whenever you encounter some difficulties. When will you be able to stand on your own? If word spreads, people will say that you only rely on your parents and not your own abilities." Chang Yu seemed to
Smiling but not smiling, Kun Xing bit his lip and suddenly said: "I understand, you want me to go to Daming Bank to borrow money, or sell some jewelry to open a shop, right?"
Chang Yu almost fell down and pointed at himself: "Here you would rather go to the bank to borrow money than ask me to borrow money?"
"I'm asking you to borrow? Are you willing to borrow?" Kun Xing couldn't help laughing, Chang Yu waved and said: "Don't laugh, I'm serious, there are two options, one, I will lend it to you, no interest required, two
, I’ll invest in it and do it with you.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Kun Xing said: "I choose two, I'm afraid I can't do it well, so just think of it as helping me, okay?"
Chang Yu naturally agreed readily. For Gong, this business will definitely make a lot of money in the future. For Private, he will naturally help Princess Kunxing.
But there is still a very real question, can Emperor Chongzhen and Empress Zhou agree.
Being royal and letting the princess do business?
Don’t you understand what Shi Nong, Industry and Commerce means?
But Chang Yu patted his chest and promised: Leave this matter to me.
