Li Xuan asked slowly.

"My lord, there are not many!" Zheng Mingde and Cui Hongmo pondered for a moment, then quickly replied, "There are only [-] neighborhoods in Chang'an City, and each neighborhood can open a tea shop, that's fine!"

"And Datang has just been on the main road, and each road will be built at intervals for a period of time, and a special tea shed will be built for passers-by to drink tea and rest, is it possible?" Li Xuandao.

"Your Majesty, it's doable!" Zheng Mingde and Cui Hongmo clasped their hands again.

"And like Pingkang Square, where Goulan listens to music, every guest who goes to these upstairs can drink tea?"

Li Xuan continued to ask.

"Returning to Your Majesty, on weekdays, those literati and other lords go to these places of smoke and willows, mostly to drink. However, with this kind of fried tea, I can guarantee that many literati will drink tea!"

Zheng Mingde and Cui Hongmo were overjoyed again, and they hurriedly clasped their hands together.

"In these places, how much tea is drunk every year, I don't say, but you should have a count in your heart!" Li Xuandao.

"Please rest assured, the king, the villain has already noted this matter!"

Zheng Mingde nodded quickly.

As children of aristocratic families, they are also very familiar with those elegant places, so they naturally know what kind of gold-selling caves those places are!

"Ok!"

Seeing this, Li Xuan nodded in satisfaction.

Then, he continued: "Do you know the teapot and teacup?"

"teapot?"

Apparently, both Zheng Mingde and Cui Hongmo had never heard of this thing before, so they looked puzzled.

At this moment, Li Baoding, Li Chengqian and the others also recovered from their senses.

Under Li Xuan's gesture, he took an iron pot from the side.

"My lord, is this the teapot?"

Both Zheng Mingde and Cui Hongmo were taken aback.

Isn't this the iron pot they had been putting on the iron stove to boil water?

"Let's take a look at what's different inside?"

Li Xuan reminded.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Hearing this, Zheng Mingde and Cui Hongmo raised the lid of the iron pot suspiciously.

"Ok?"

Immediately, a somewhat different place was discovered.

This kind of small iron pot, no, it should be a small teapot, and there are holes in it.

There is also a small pot hidden under the lid, and a ball of tea is placed inside!

……

Chapter 284 Waiting for the world to drop money is right!

Some astonishment flashed in the eyes of the two of them, they lifted the small pot and found that there was tea under it!

As for the small teapot in his hand, there are densely packed small round holes underneath. After combining the process of making tea, the two of them immediately understood!

His eyes were full of amazement.

Turning around, he saluted Li Xuan respectfully.

"My lord, this kind of teapot is really exquisite and unique, and there must be many people who like it!"

"Is fifty cash for a teapot?"

Li Xuandao.

"My lord, fifty Wen is too low!"

Zheng Mingde was startled, and quickly replied.

In this era, iron was still a rare item.

"That's one hundred pennies!"

Li Xuan changed his words immediately.

Both Zheng Mingde and Cui Hongmo were taken aback for a moment, then nodded slowly.

Although it is a bit expensive, anyone who can afford tea can also afford it.

"In this way, every time a tea shop is opened, some teapots and teacups will be placed in the tea shop."

Li Xuan nodded and said: "In addition, ceramics and glass can also be used. Try this kind of teapot and see if the teapot made of ceramics and glass works well!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Zheng Mingde and Cui Hongmo nodded again.

Immediately, my heart became hot.

If they follow the regulations that the king said, they can guarantee that they will earn [-]% more money every year.

Seeing these two depraved sons of aristocratic families, some understood what he said, and Li Xuan nodded in satisfaction.

"Hurry up and make more tea leaves and send them to Chang'an City. Otherwise, those rich businessmen and dignitaries will come to block you. Don't blame me for not reminding you!"

"Block us?"

Zheng Mingde and Cui Hongmo were startled again.

"Ok!"

Li Xuan nodded slowly and ignored it.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for reminding me!"

The two of them didn't take it seriously, but they still bowed slightly to Li Xuan as usual.

"Okay, let's take care of the tea shop if you have nothing to do!"

Seeing this, Li Xuan waved his hands helplessly, signaling the two to leave quickly.

After Zheng Mingde and Cui Hongmo left, Li Chengqian, Cheng Chusi and the others were all excited.

Staring at Li Xuan closely, he said, "Master, Zheng Mingde and Cui Hongmo, are you sure they didn't lie to you? Just one piece of tea leaves can earn tens of millions a year?"

"What are you doing with me?"

Li Xuan looked at these bastards with a strange expression.

"Forehead!"

Li Chengqian, Cheng Chusi and the others couldn't help being shocked, and then depressed.

It seems that what the master said is correct, no matter how much money the tea shop makes, they can't get a penny!

Seeing this, Li Xuan sneered, "I can't cure you!"

After that, he continued: "If you follow what this king said, you can earn more than 200 million guan in the surrounding barbarian countries just for tea and teapots. As for the Tang Dynasty, how many rich people are there? Tens of millions of guan, It's even easier!"

Now, Cheng Chusi, Li Chengqian and others quickly looked at Li Xuan again, their eyes were full of little stars.

"Master, as the eldest son of the prince's mansion, I can't even make up enough money for my whole body! Even, I was thirsty on the road and didn't have money to drink tea. Do you think you can give me some money?" Pay attention, let me wait to make some money, it doesn’t take much, just ten or a hundred guans a month will do!”

"Eat and drink daily, either in Li's Manor or in your own mansion, what do you want money for?"

Li Xuan glanced at these bastards.

"Master, a man, how can you not pretend to be rich?"

Cheng Chusi said seriously.

"Pooh!"

Li Xuan couldn't help but spit on the ground, with disgust on his face.

"How old are you, and you want to go to those places with fireworks?"

"Master, there are not only those fenced places in the city, but also theaters!"

Cheng Chusi grinned without any shyness, and Li Xuan couldn't help but feel ashamed when he saw it.

Sure enough, they are all a bunch of little beasts.

Thinking about it, Li Xuan gave these little bastards a hard look, and asked, "What is that theater?"

"Back to Master, the theater is a big room. There are people singing, dancing, juggling, and storytelling, etc. It's very fun. I like listening to those people's storytelling the most. Go in and listen once. Not only do you have to drink, but you also have to You can't get fifty cents at a time for eating!"

As he spoke, Cheng Chusi's fat face couldn't help feeling a little frustrated.

"It turned out to be a big theater!"

Li Xuan also let out a sigh of relief, and he just said, no matter how open Datang is, it cannot be so open.

It's all the fault of these evil beasts for leading him astray.

Thinking about it, Li Xuan couldn't help it again, and gave Cheng Chusi a hard look.

"It's only fifty coins at a time, but this king knows that you can sell mahjong in Chang'an City, and each person can earn at least a hundred guan a month! Why, so much money is not enough for you to toss around?"

Hearing this, Cheng Chusi, Li Chengqian and others couldn't help but feel depressed.

"Ok?"

A trace of doubt flashed in Li Xuan's eyes.

"Return to Master, the mahjong business has been robbed!"

Cheng Chusi said honestly.

"Who is so bold to steal your business?"

Li Xuan was even more curious.

"Back to Master, I'm the one waiting for Aunt!"

Cheng Chusi and the others sighed heavily and spoke slowly.

"Tsk..."

Li Xuan couldn't help being overjoyed.

"Master, my aunt not only took away our mahjong business, but also deducted my money for the past few months. We are penniless now, and you are so happy!"

Cheng Chusi and the others couldn't help but be full of resentment.

"You can't even keep the mahjong business, do you still want to do other businesses?"

Li Xuan continued to say with a smile.

"Master, so I want a business that makes less money!"

Cheng Chusi's face became thicker and thicker, and he said directly with a smile.

"Doing business, how much money do you have in your hands?"

Li Xuan continued to ask.

But when he saw that these evil beasts were shaking their heads in unison, he couldn't help being stunned.

"No money?"

"Master, we are really penniless!" Li Chongyi said.

"What about the money?"

Li Xuan asked, "My master knows that you can make a lot of money by borrowing that mahjong!"

"Go back to Master, it was all taken away by A Niang!"

Cheng Chu said.

Now, Li Xuan couldn't help but look shocked.

"A bunch of prodigal sons!"
