As the autumn hunt approaches, the weather is getting colder.

"It's almost roasted, get out of the pan quickly." Ye Changling directed Chen Si to pick up the grilled mushroom skewers from the grill.

Ye Changling is having a barbecue in the courtyard.

Ye Changling has felt the joy of life since letting the system down last time.

So easy and cozy.

"Chen Si, serve the eggs." Ye Changling ordered as he tasted the roasted wild mushrooms.

"That's good." Chen Si immediately put three strings of bird eggs on the charcoal basin with quick hands and eyes.

"Young Master Ling, Young Master Ling." At this moment, a deliberately low voice came from outside the small courtyard.

It was a fat man with a good face.

Being able to become a round and fat man in this era when most people don't have enough to eat is enough to highlight his family background.

Ye Changling glanced at him, nodded, and the fat man happily walked into the courtyard.

The fat man's name was Song Jinfu, and he and Ye Changling were about five relatives. His family was quite wealthy, and there were several silk and satin shops.Relying on the kinship relationship between his ancestors and the Ye family, he has walked around a lot since his grandfather's generation, which can be regarded as leaning against a big tree to enjoy the shade.

"Master Ling, look what I brought you." Song Jinfu walked up to Ye Changling, knocked Chen Si away, and showed Ye Changling what he had been holding in his arms like a treasure.

Wrapped in layers of lotus leaves and oiled paper, after opening, the roast duck and sauced beef are delicious and fragrant, with a little heat.

"Hey, Jin Fu, young master, I'm still in my filial piety." Ye Changling said coldly.

"Oh, young master, this isn't meat, it's made of tofu! Young master Ling is so filial, how can a villain do such nasty things to frame young master?" Song Jinfu said righteously.

"There's no ginger in this one, right?" Ye Changling glanced at the roast duck and asked.

"The villain deliberately ordered it."

"Yes. Chen Si, roast this tofu." Ye Changling nodded, this Song Jinbao is also a wonderful person, much smarter than the dull Chen Si.

The roast duck and beef were carefully placed on the charcoal fire, and the aroma immediately filled the entire small courtyard, and everyone in the small courtyard swallowed their saliva in unison.

Now that he has kept his filial piety, Ye Changling has long been able to eat meat, but he doesn't know why he is acquiesced to be a vegetarian by everyone.

After a long time, Ye Changling finally ate authentic Peking duck.

"This tofu is good, let's eat it together." Ye Changling took a sip, looked around, and the others were also looking at him eagerly, and ordered so immediately.

"Master Xie." The people in the small courtyard were waiting for Ye Changling's words, and immediately rushed forward.

"Hey, save some for this young master!" What kind of servants are these!

……

After the meal was full, Mei Xiang poured Ye Changling a cup of the milk Zhuangzi sent today, and Ye Changling let out a sigh.

"Tell me, what do you want from me?" Ye Changling leaned on the old man's chair, Mei Xiang stood aside and rubbed Ye Changling's shoulders, and Song Jinfu stepped forward to beat Ye Changling's legs when he heard the words.

"Master Ling, I just feel that I haven't seen you for a long time, and I think..."

"Stop talking nonsense." Ye Changling sneered.

"The young master is really clever, the villain... The villain wants to ask the young master to give me a way to make money." Song Jinfu said flatteringly.

Now it was Ye Changling's turn to be surprised.

"No wonder people in the world say that businessmen dare to sell their ancestral graves for money. Song Jinbao, you are not satisfied." Ye Changling raised his eyebrows.

"The villain deserves to die, but the villain can't control his own hands." Song Jinbao was overjoyed to be ridiculed by Ye Changling like this, because what Ye Changling said meant that he did have other methods.

Of course, the facts are as Song Jinbao thought.

"The purple silk and satin didn't even whet your appetite." Ye Changling sighed.

Ye Changling met Song Jinbao at Zhuangzi outside the city.Ye Changling was considering buying a cow, and Song Jinbao also came into Ye Changling's sight at that time.

Scholars, farmers, businessmen.In ancient times, there was a kind of natural discrimination against businessmen, and the officials were even more demeaning.There are even some businessmen who are rich, but try to get closer to the literati and strive for the reputation of Confucian businessmen.

Although he held Ye Yang's dowry in his hand, he felt uneasy about using it to the end.But in this era of low productivity, even a piece of authentic chicken cake is not available, and the most common fine rice noodles and sugar are luxuries in the eyes of ordinary people. Ye Changling naturally wants to make money.

But due to his status, he couldn't make money by himself.

He is not an idiot when he knows that he will be sprayed, so why would he do it.

Children will shout against the rules, and adults will only follow the trend and then change the general trend.

It's not that other officials don't do business, it's just that they will hand over their properties to others and become shareholders behind the scenes. Since everyone else is doing this, why not Ye Changling?

The most important thing is that it is too tiring to manage the business by yourself.

He couldn't bear this kind of fatigue at such a young age.

"Look at the memory of the villain, thanks to the recipe given by the young master, this is the bonus of these few months, the villain dare not take it alone."

A bank note was carefully handed over.

3000 two?

Ye Changling's eyelids twitched as he looked at the denomination of the bank note.

"How much do you sell for a horse?" Ye Changling handed the banknote to Mei Xiang, and the latter went straight back to the room to put it away without raising his eyelids after receiving the banknote.

Sure enough, as expected of Young Master Ling, even the maid has the air of a general.Song Jinbao looked at the appearance of Ye Changling's maid, and sighed in his heart, with a more respectful face.

Song Jinbao made an 'eight' gesture.

"Eight taels?" Ye Changling was not satisfied with this number. Although the best silks and satins in the capital were only six or seven taels, Ye Changling had seen the color of those silks and satins, and he had confidence in his formula. The dyeing process that has been popular for more than 100 years began in the eighteenth century.

He originally planned to raise the price to ten taels.But since Song Jinbao has given full power to him, he can't ask too much.

In just a moment, Ye Changling was already thinking about changing his agent.

"Return to the young master's words." At this moment, Song Jinbao smiled embarrassedly, "It's 80 taels."

Hearing this, Ye Changling almost choked on the milk.

"The villain is thinking about it. Our silks and satins are brightly colored, especially purple, so we have slightly raised the price." Seeing Ye Changling's expression, Song Jinbao felt sorry for him, and unconsciously lowered his voice a little.

Is this a slight price increase?

You are truly a genius.

After Ye Changling thought about it, he realized that Song Jinbao was indeed a genius.

Ye Changling's formula for Song Jinbao is very simple. It is just the dyeing process of several main colors. Due to the limitation of materials, Ye Changling can only improve the original dyeing process, changing the ratio of heat and formula to make the color brighter and more beautiful. Works but only so much.

However, there is a completely different formula mixed into it.

Lichen staining.

The method of lichen dyeing can be traced back to 2000 years ago, but it was not developed until the eighteenth century.Why did purple represent nobility in ancient times?Simply because it is expensive and difficult to make.

Therefore, those who can use purple are either rich or noble, and over time they become representatives of nobility.

The purple air coming from the east and the Forbidden City all describe it as expensive.

The purple dyed in ancient times is not only complicated and easy to fade, but also the dyed color is ugly.But the method given by Ye Changling completely overturned these shortcomings.

The dyeing material is very simple, gray lichen, a common plant that coexists with moss, and then mix it with urine to get purple dye.

The dyed color is beautiful and conspicuous, and there is also a plant fragrance, which stands out from the expensive purple silk satin that is currently on the market.

Moreover, those who can use purple silk satin are either rich or expensive. The high price will not make them timid, but will even stimulate their enthusiasm for buying.

It is similar to the luxury marketing of later generations.

Seeing that Ye Changling didn't speak for a long time, Song Jinbao's last trace of complacency disappeared. He lowered his head and his forehead began to sweat.

"The villain will die, and the villain will lower the price now." Song Jinbao's last line of defense was broken, and he knelt in front of Ye Changling and begged for mercy.

"No need." After a long time, Ye Changling's indifferent voice sounded, but it seemed that Ye Changling was inscrutable when it fell into Song Jinbao's heart.

"Let's do this first. If there are fewer purple silks and satins, we can supply them in limited quantities." Naturally, we should cut leeks slowly.

Hearing Ye Changling say this, Song Jinbao heaved a sigh of relief, especially when he heard the 'limited supply' that Ye Changling said, his eyes lit up.

Wonderful, as expected of Master Ling, he is very knowledgeable.Song Jinbao admired him so much.

"But I want to know where you put the rest of the silver taels." If it is based on 80 taels of purple silk, the 3000 taels of dividends is not enough.
