Tang Dynasty: The poisonous scholar in the Eastern Palace, please abdicate and let the wise one take

Chapter 42: Don’t go out at night, or you’ll get beaten!

Prince's residence.

Su Wang held the account book in his hand and reported today's revenue to Su Chen.

Eight hundred and seventy taels of silver and three hundred and fifty-one coins.

The revenue from just the first day was enough to make Jin Yong and his colleagues drop their jaws.

How much small change is this?
Su Wang had worked for Su Bin before and had seen a lot of "big money", but when faced with such an astonishing number, he couldn't help but get excited. He secretly compared it in his mind and found that the total amount of all the stores under the name of Master Su Bin was only this amount.

Who would have thought that the soap that Su Chen spent an entire afternoon making would be so popular?

"Excluding the cost of soap and labor, today's total profit is about five hundred taels of silver."

After Su Wang reported the revenue with a smile, he placed the account book in front of Su Chen and asked Su Chen to take a look.

Su Chen took a quick look and suddenly felt overwhelmed.

Every piece of soap sold by Wenxianglai was recorded. There were so many details and so many details that only Su Wang had the patience to calculate all these accounts clearly.

Su Chen nodded and threw the account book to Su Wang, "I'll keep the account book with you for safekeeping. Don't lose it."

Su Wang said solemnly, "Please rest assured, the account book is there when the person is here, and it is still there when the person is gone."

Su Chen laughed in silence and picked up the teacup.

A servant came hurriedly to report, "Sir, the Crown Prince is here!"

Wang Xuance, who was standing next to Su Chen, suddenly had his eyes brightened.

"Brother Su."

Li Chengqian strode in, greeted with a smile, but when his eyes fell on Wang Xuance, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Where did Su Chen recruit this person from?

"Let me introduce you to Luoyang King Xuan Ce. I brought him here from Luoyang under your name."

Wang Xuance bowed respectfully: "Greetings, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Li Chengqian nodded, "What benefits did he give you?"

Wang Xuance glanced at Su Chen with embarrassment, and Su Chen confessed: "I told him if he was interested in coming to Chang'an City to help the prince, and he came."

"As for the official position, you can decide for yourself."

"...?"

Li Chengqian and Wang Xuance looked at him at the same time.

The official position will be given according to your opinion?
Do you think this court is run by my family?
Uh……

Wang Xuance seemed to have noticed Li Chengqian's embarrassment and said, "I am very lucky to be able to work for the Crown Prince. How dare I ask for an official position?"

Li Chengqian breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and nodded, "It's okay, since you are the candidate recommended by Brother Su, I will naturally not treat you unfairly."

"It's just that there is no suitable position for you in the Eastern Palace at the moment. You might as well work with Brother Su. He is in a very bad situation right now. You can ensure his safety by being by his side. Besides, helping him is helping me."

The relationship between Master Su and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is indeed extraordinary.

Wang Xuance: "I obey your command."

Su Chen sensed something, "Did you hear something?"

Li Chengqian was a little gloating: "What else do I need to hear?"

"The whole city of Chang'an has heard that you scolded Confucius and said he was disloyal, unjust, unkind and unfilial, causing Confucius to vomit blood and faint outside the Wenxianglai Gate!"

"I remind you, don't go out after dark, you may get beaten!"

Su Chen: "..."

Li Chengqian said slowly, "After I heard about this from my uncle, I hurried over. My uncle told me not to get involved."

Su Chen nodded, "wise."

Li Chengqian: "Do you know the consequences of this?"

Su Chen waved his hand indifferently, "It's just a small matter, not worth mentioning."

Li Chengqian: "..."

"Okay, since you know what's going on, I won't say much. I've been busy with Chongwenguan's affairs these days, and I'm almost overwhelmed."

"Have you found everyone?"

"Cen Wenben refused."

Su Chen nodded in understanding. As a member of the Wei Wang Party who supported the King of Wei, Cen Wenben's refusal was expected.

perhaps.

After hearing the news from Sun Qiang, Cen Wen will change his mind.

"Leave Cen Wenben to me."

"it is good."

Li Chengqian nodded, glanced at the account book that Su Wang was holding tightly in his arms, and said, "Didn't you open your business today at noon? How is your business going?" Su Chen: "It's OK. In a few days, my reputation as a madman should bring some income to Wenxianglai."

Li Chengqian: "..."

Using the name of Kuangsheng to start a soap and powder business?
This was a path Li Chengqian had never imagined.

"You are such a...geek."

Li Chengqian shook his head, said something speechlessly, and stood up to leave, "I want to be a prince who is friendly to his brothers, respectful to his brothers, and steady and eager to make progress."

"Go."

Looking at Su Chen's kind and smiling face, Li Chengqian felt very strange.

This smile...

He actually had the illusion that he was facing Gao Shilian.

strange!
Li Chengqian shook his head secretly and strode away.

Subsequently.

Su Chen looked at Wang Xuance, who bowed and asked, "What do you want, sir?"

"The business of Wen Xiang Lai is booming, so I'm afraid someone has bad intentions."

Su Chen said quietly, "Jin Yong, are your friends willing to come and help?"

Jin Yong was delighted: "I'll be at your service anytime, sir!"

Su Chen: "All the people selected before will be assigned to Wang Xuance's command and will be at his disposal."

Jin Yong was stunned for a moment and looked at Wang Xuance, who also looked at him suspiciously.

"Yes!"

Jin Yong nodded.

Su Chen said again, "Wang Xuance."

"exist."

"I'm leaving this group of people to you. I have only one request."

"Please tell me, sir. I will try my best!"

"Train them into elite soldiers!"

"...?"

Wang Xuance widened his glasses, as if he had heard it wrongly.

Can bad guys like Jin Yong be trained into elite soldiers?
what you up to?
Jin Yong couldn't help but tremble in his heart. A bold idea slowly arose in his mind, but was immediately strangled to death by Jin Yong.

"Sir, am I..."

"No, you heard it right!"

Su Chen smiled and patted Wang Xuance's shoulder, "We need to train them into elite soldiers, even more powerful than your majesty's Qianniu Guards!"

Wang Xuance: “…”

It’s just to protect Wen Xianglai’s business, there’s no need to be so cruel, right?

"All the money you need for daily training will be provided by Wen Xiang. You will have meat for every meal, and your monthly salary will be the same as that of Qianniuwei!"

"I will definitely live up to your trust!"

Wang Xuance was shocked.

Putting aside the monthly salary, three meals a day, with wine and meat, it is really challenging to create an elite force comparable to the Qianniu Guards with such a diet!

"Suwang."

"The villain is here."

"Starting tomorrow, the money Wang Xuance and others need must not be withheld in the slightest!"

"Yes!"

Su Wang nodded heavily.

This is not for Su Chen, this is for the prince, for the master's son-in-law!
"Jin Yong, there is one more thing I need you to do."

"Please give me your instructions, Master."

"Su Bing mentioned in the letter that the reason he was able to persuade Xue Rengui this time was because he made great promises, one of which was a house in Chang'an City. This matter is left to you to handle."

"Yes."

Su Chen gently fanned his folding fan and picked up the teacup.

"I'll take my leave."
