In Qijianzhai, Xie Tiao's head was all big. He also woke up from a hangover. He heard that the threshold was broken by the head shopkeepers of the restaurant. Come!"

Xie Zhiwei and Xie Shibai came to Qijianzhai one after another. Xie Tiao had already sat on the chair in front of the south window and drank a cup of tea. His energy was a little better. He said to Xie Zhiwei, "Miss Wei, which wine do you use? Brewed with ancient recipes."

"In a dilapidated book left by my granddaughter's mother, there are several ancient recipes for brewing wine. My granddaughter has nothing to do, so she tried it."

Okay, some people are just very talented, and once they try it, they make a big splash.

"I heard that in order to ask the emperor to give up a jar of peach blossom wine, Prince Xiang is now living in the palace and will sleep with the emperor at night. Sister Wei, do you have any plans to make wine again?"

Xie Zhiwei came prepared and handed a prescription to Xie Tiao, "Grandfather, granddaughter didn't expect this reception to be so popular, now that it's at this point, it's better to follow the trend, granddaughter thinks that grandfather can discuss it with the emperor." Let’s open a wine shop together, with a total of 100 shares, the emperor holds five shares, Xie’s family invites four families to hold five shares in total, and the rest will be used as the shares of the Ministry of Accounts for Northwest military funds. If the wine sells well, The household department also benefits, so wouldn't the pressure on grandfather be much less?"

Xie Tiao's eyes lit up, and he stared at Xie Zhiwei, feeling both joy and sadness in his heart, what a wonderful granddaughter he is, she will belong to someone else's family in the future.

Xie Shibo said, "Will the emperor agree?"

After all, this is an unprecedented way of operating, will the emperor agree?

Xie Zhiwei nodded, "No matter which emperor, he is unwilling to bear the infamy of plundering the people's fat and embezzling the bank. In the future, he will be recorded in the history books as a sum of arrogance, lust and insatiable desire. The emperor will definitely agree. As for Xie family, the reason why we want to take a share is because, in the future, fourth uncle will arrange people to run this wine shop to earn a hard fee."

However, Xie Tiao knew that this hard work was not easy, he asked, "In your opinion, who are the other four suitable?"

"Naturally, they are people who are interested in the war in the northwest. My granddaughter thinks that Master Lu should have a share, and Prince Xiang's Mansion should have a share. If the other two can't be found, then the Ministry of Households will take 92 shares. However, these proceeds, All must be used in the Northwest War.”

In this way, the grain and grass in the northwest will be guaranteed to a certain extent.

Xie Shibai asked, "So Miss Wei thinks, how to price this wine?"

Xie Zhi smiled, "The more the better, of course, although it is peach blossom wine, the peach blossoms used for brewing here can also use other medicinal petals, such as roses, lotus, etc., so that it can be brewed in all seasons , However, the formula must be passed through the niece, and I am worried that the properties of the medicine will be different, and it will not affect the taste, but it will be harmful to the human body."

Xie Tiao was very excited, after writing a charter, he hurried into the palace.

In the East Nuan Pavilion, the emperor was taking a nap. Prince Xiang was huddling with the emperor shamelessly. His fat body carried a lot of heat. The emperor felt as if there was a big stove around him, and he woke up.

"Ah Yan!" The emperor yelled, without opening his eyes, he said, "Can't we put more ice basins?"

Lu Yan glanced at King Xiang, King Xiang turned over and squeezed the emperor inward. On the small kang, he guessed that he was not sleeping well, snoring loudly, and the emperor sat up in panic, Glancing to the side, he kicked towards King Xiang.

Helplessly, the emperor had just recovered from a serious illness, and his strength was limited, and King Xiang's tonnage was too large, so he remained motionless.

The emperor couldn't get angry with Lu Yan, so he stretched out his hand to Lu Yan, "Help me up!"

The emperor hurried out of Dongnuan Pavilion, walked to the door, and said angrily, "Can't I just carry him away?"

Lu Yan didn't speak, and supported the emperor to blow the air under the eaves. Li Baozhen walked quickly and said, "Your Majesty, thank you for your visit!"

"What do you want to see me for? You come to cry poor again. Is there any way for me to make money? I haven't gone out to escape the summer heat this year!"

The emperor did save a lot of money this year, not because he had no money, but because his illness came at an untimely time, and if he didn't want to die on the way to avoid the summer heat, he had to stay in Beijing.

Xie Tiao had already come in without hesitation, he bowed to the emperor under the steps, "Your majesty, I have something to say!"

The emperor's cool eyes swished towards Xie Tiao like knives. He snorted coldly, turned his head and walked towards the hall. After only two steps, he heard the thunderous snoring inside. The emperor was upset for a while, and entered To the west is the Hall of Diligence and Prosperity. Sit in it.

Lu Yan gestured, and the little eunuch rushed in with a bowl of herbal tea. Lu Yan held the tea bowl in both hands and placed it next to the emperor's.

Xie Tiao came in and knelt on the lichen, "Your Majesty, I thought of a way to make money, and I didn't dare to make a fortune alone, so I went to the palace to ask the Emperor for instructions."

The emperor said "oh", picked up the tea bowl casually, took a sip, and asked, "Didn't you come to me to call me poor?"

"I dare not!" Xie Tiao hurriedly presented the draft book with both hands. Lu Yan took it and handed it to the emperor. The emperor looked at it at a glance, and the more he looked, the happier he was. Seeing the annual income predicted later, he was immediately delighted , "You mean, at least five hundred thousand taels of silver can be sent to the northwest border every year? Is this not a lie?"

"Your Majesty, this is my estimate. Although I'm not saying it's very accurate, I can always give it a try. Right now, in order to keep the safety of the northwest border, we can only use it for special purposes. I beg your Majesty to give it a try!"

The emperor handed the booklet to Lu Yan, "Look, the old man Xie Tiao said that you, Ah Yan, will take a share!"

Lu Yan took a look at it and said, "Master Xie, I think that a catty of wine is priced at 50 taels of silver, which is really too cheap. I suggest that a catty of wine is priced at 500 taels of silver. Quite a few, Mr. Xie should not underestimate these rich people."

Xie Tiao was taken aback, and suddenly looked up at Lu Yan, thinking, this young man really dared to think, he couldn't help but wonder, "Master Lu, this one hundred taels is already very expensive, and I'm still worried that I won't be able to sell it. Is your five hundred taels too expensive?"

Lu Yan smiled brightly, and there seemed to be a flash of light in a pair of bewitching eyes. The summer wind blowing in from the window made people seem to hear the sound of flowers blooming.

"Master Xie underestimated the wine brewed by the princess, and also underestimated the rich people in the world. Yesterday, there were people who bought a thousand taels of wine. They wanted to buy it from me. Besides, Mr. Xie also said that they could try it. How? If you don’t try it, how will you know?”

If the unit price of a catty of wine can be doubled, his own income can also be doubled, and the military resources in the Northwest can also be doubled, the emperor will naturally be overjoyed, "Just do as A Yan said, when will this wine shop open? "
