This prince is going to heaven

Chapter 261
In fact, the purpose of Zhou Tianzi summoning Wen Ruyan today is for the military salary.

After Wen Ruyan made it clear, he resigned and left the palace.

After returning to Prince Daojing's mansion, he directly instructed the housekeeper, "Send someone to invite Mr. Fei over quickly."

It was rare for the butler to see Wen Ruyan so serious, so he nodded in agreement.

Not long after, Fei Zihuai hurried to Wen Ruyan's study.

Without waiting for him to open his mouth, Wen Ruyan said directly: "General Sima Zongheng of Southern Chu led an army of 20 troops to Pingyang Pass yesterday, and now the issue of military pay is imminent. I need an accurate estimate of how much silver I will get in today's auction, and you It has to be brought over quickly."

Fei Zihuai was also taken aback when he heard such a big event, and he hurriedly said seriously: "Your Highness, in the past two days, 43 invitation letters have been secretly sold, with a total of 31 taels of silver. Today's auction has a total of 7000 taels of silver. Twelve thousand and three hundred taels. This is the ledger, please take a look at it.”

Wen Ruyan turned over the ledger handed over by Fei Zihuai, looked at it carefully, and then put it together and said, "You have to send the more than 60 taels of silver here quickly. I will personally send it to the treasury in the evening. It is really urgent to set off for the south.”

"Okay, I'll go back and give orders immediately."

Wen Ruyan nodded.

"You should discuss it with Fei Yuanwai when you go back, and promote the clothes on a large scale in the next few days. Remember, the price must be raised to a higher level."

Fei Zihuai was startled, and said, "So fast? But if the price is high, wouldn't there be fewer people buying it?"

Wen Ruyan shook his head, and said: "Today's clothes were sold at sky-high prices in the auction house. If you suddenly took out a lot of clothes and sold them at such a low price in the past few days, then the people who bought them today will naturally feel A wave of resentment arose. After all, no one wants to suffer a loss. This is really not good for your Fei family. And you don’t have to worry about not being able to sell it. There are still many people who have not been auctioned in the auction house today, and there are many rich people in Yanjing City. There was also a large group of people who didn't show up because they didn't get the invitation letter, but they were all waiting, as long as you take it out, no matter how high the price is, someone will pay for it, you can rest assured about that."

When Fei Zihuai heard it, he clapped his hands instantly and said, "That's exactly the truth! Why didn't I think of it?"

"You didn't think of it. You didn't think of it. Fei Yuanwai must have thought of it. Also, didn't I ask you to mark the clothes? The gold silk jade Ruyi inlaid on the left chest, right? You can publicize this batch of clothes to the outside world." The first batch of noble clothes will not be made again in the future. If you sell them again, you can change the mark, and the shape is still jade ruyi. You can take this jade ruyi as a unique mark of your Fei family, but don’t use gold. If it is silky, the cost can be reduced appropriately, and then the price of clothes can also be reduced appropriately. In this way, those who spend a lot of money to buy the first batch of clothes will naturally feel complacent. Do the Ruyi people feel a little arrogant when they face the silver-threaded jade Ruyi? After all, this is a status symbol," Wen Ruyan asked seriously.

After hearing what he said, Fei Zihuai looked at him blankly and said, "Your Highness, tell the truth, have you met my father?"

Wen Ruyan was taken aback, and said, "No, why did you say that all of a sudden?"

Fei Zihuai said with a wry smile: "What you told me just now, my father also told me, if you really haven't met him, then I really don't know what to say, you How can a dignified prince of the heavenly family be more scheming than me, a son from a merchant family?"

Wen Ruyan shook his head with a light smile, but didn't say much.

Three days in a row.

The Fei family directly promoted the Hanfu designed by Wen Ruyan to the entire Yanjing City, and except for the clothes that were put up for auction for the first time, the rest of the chests were replaced with silver silk jade Ruyi, although the price was much lower. But the people who won the auction that day not only didn't show any resentment, but just as Wen Ruyan imagined, all of them had complacent faces.

After all, the world of rich people is really simple.

They don't care how expensive things are, after all, they can't spend too much money, they only care about how much face this thing can bring them!

Alas, rich man.
Gee tut.

On the evening of the third day, Fei Zihuai sent another 130 million taels of silver to Wen Ruyan directly.

When Wen Ruyan heard this number, she was also taken aback.

"How come there are so many?"

Fei Zihuai laughed and said, "As soon as the clothes were sold, the crowd flocked to them, and they couldn't stop them. Up to now, there is not a single piece of finished clothes left from my Fei family."

Wen Ruyan glanced at him in surprise, and said directly: "Tell me, how much of this did your Fei family give?"

Fei Zihuai was startled, and said, "Your Highness, what are you talking about?"

Wen Ruyan shook his head, and said seriously: "Although I don't know what price you sold it for, I wouldn't believe that you could raise 130 million taels within three days. Rare things are more expensive. When this dress is launched on a large scale, its price will naturally not be as high as it was at the first auction. Don't try to lie to me. To be honest, of the 130 million taels of silver, your Fei family took it out How many?"

Seeing that he couldn't hide it from him, Fei Zihuai said with a wry smile: "38 taels, the clothes were sold for a total of 92 taels. My father thought it was a bit small, so he took out another 38 taels and filled it in. This is already the current price of my Fei family. The limit is now, after all, the cost of making these clothes is not low, and the embroiderers in Xiufang rush to work day and night, and the wages can't make them feel cold."

Wen Ruyan was silent.

The cost of making these clothes was all paid by the Fei family, and all the gross profits gained afterward were sent to his own house. Even if the Fei family has a big business, they really can't afford such a drag.

At this time, Fei Yuanwai privately took out 38 taels of silver to fill it in, which really moved Wen Ruyan.

Fate of the nation, everyone is responsible.

No matter it is Huaxia in the previous life or Dazhou now, there are many villains, but there are more big men!
Whenever there is a crisis in the country, there will always be countless people who come forward.

Except for those who have money, status and status, even the ordinary little people are like this.

Maybe these people are ordinary people, working part-time, earning money, and supporting their families, but who knows what kind of energy they will burst out when facing the crisis of the country!

As a good man, who doesn't have a heart full of passion?

For the country and the people, the great righteousness of a chivalrous man!
But if you are moved, Wen Ruyan still can't ask for this money.

"You take back the 38 taels of silver, I can't take it."

Fei Zihuai had already guessed what he would say, and he smiled and said, "Your Highness, my father said before I came that with your intelligence, you should not be able to hide this from you. If you find out and don't accept this Silver, he asked me to tell you that the 38 taels of silver is considered to be a buyout of your design. In the future, no matter how much money you get from this clothes, it has nothing to do with you. After all, my Fei family took advantage of it."

Wen Ruyan looked deeply at Fei Zihuai and stopped talking.

Fei Zihuai said with a wry smile: "Okay, Your Highness, don't be polite to me at this juncture. The southern Chu army is suppressing the border, and the northern Xiongnu are watching fiercely. They will invade our territory at any time. If the army's salary is not sufficient at this time, how can we resist foreign enemies? The 130 million taels of silver plus the 60 taels from last time make a total of nearly 200 million taels. Although it is still a bit stretched, at least it can solve the immediate urgent need. As long as you give you time, I believe you can still think of ways to make money Ways, and my Fei family can still follow you to make a fortune, my father said, after this, my Fei family will definitely not suffer the slightest loss, so you can accept it."

A touch of emotion flashed in Wen Ruyan's eyes, and after a long while, he said with a serious face: "Okay, I will accept the money, but I borrowed it from your Fei family, give me some time, I will definitely return!"

Fei Zihuai chuckled and stopped answering.

He doesn't have the far-sightedness of Fei Yuanwai, and now it's just that Wen Ruyan is joking with him, but he doesn't care. Putting aside the friendship between the two of them, can I, Fei Zihuai, not be able to do something for my generals? ?

But who knows, because of this favor in the future, how far the Fei family will make the business.

Of course, this is something for later, let's not talk about it for now.
