184: Chapter 182 Countdown Three Days 184: Chapter 182 Countdown Three Days Regarding who exactly this Preacher is, whether his first na is Xu and last na is Fu, Charles has no way of knowing.
In short, after understanding these circumstances, Lin Yi was finally able to rest easy.
He then imdiately arranged for everyone to be secretly sent away according to plan.
At the sa ti, this news instantly spread throughout all the noble circles in the Capital City.
Now everyone knew that Lin Yi had brought all those foreign Envoys to the Nanshan Base.
In an instant, this sparked wild speculation among countless people, all guessing at Lin Yi’s intentions.
However, they soon conjured up a fact: this guy must be after the Glass Beads.
After all, the little Emperor had only just secured her position.
And because of this, she was in dire need of money.
Yet there was not much Silver Tael in the National Treasury.
Although a substantial amount of Silver Coin had been seized from Chen Baicheng’s house, it was rely a drop in the bucket.
It’s not only the thirty thousand refugees in the Capital City that need food and Silver.
Don’t forget, the disaster-stricken areas also need to sow disaster relief silver.
After this disaster, the little Emperor’s National Treasury is likely to be completely empty.
And under such circumstances, what is it that the little Emperor needs most?
It goes without saying; it must be money.
Without money, what use would it be for her to control those armies?
Just withhold their salaries for two months, and surely the loyalty of those people would dissipate.
Of course, no matter how the outsiders speculate, it has nothing to do with Lin Yi.
After all, this was all part of his plan.
The more mysterious people speculate, the better – it could pave a natural path for his future endeavors.
After sending those people away, Lin Yi certainly wasn’t idle.
After all, today’s society lacks more than just Glass Beads.
If he wants to make money, Lin Yi has countless ideas in his head, as this ti travel brings along three great treasures, and he’s barely started on the first one.
Especially considering that he has to support a bottomless pit like the little Emperor, Lin Yi felt an imnse pressure.
When reading novels, the protagonist would ti travel to ancient society and then lead a rebellion to beco an Emperor.
But in his case, instead of becoming an Emperor, he has to embark on a little Emperor upbringing plan.
It’s certainly an alternative approach.
However, whenever he thinks of the little Emperor’s stunning beauty, her graceful figure, and her fierce yet adorable contradictory deanor, Lin Yi can’t help but be enchanted.
“How is it going?
Have you found the things I asked you to prepare?”
He asked this of Wu Lei, who he found busy at work.
Hearing Lin Yi’s voice, Wu Lei hastily set aside his task and trotted over to Lin Yi.
After wiping his hands on his body and presenting a respectful deanor, he bowed to Lin Yi:
“Replying to my lord, most of the items you tasked to find are still being sought after, but we have found a lot of soapberries and lard.
They have already been delivered to Workshop Three, and they have started experinting with them as you instructed.
Oh, and that set of distillation equipnt you ntioned before has also been completed.”
“It’s already been placed in Workshop No.
4, just as you instructed.”
Lin Yi nodded satisfactorily upon hearing this.
It seems these guys work pretty efficiently.
“Very good.
Tell Workshop No.
3 that after they finish the product, to send one imdiately.
I want to personally inspect it.
As for the matter at Workshop No.
4, let’s put that on hold for now.
Right now, we still have over 30,000 people waiting to eat here, and there isn’t enough food to go around, so let’s not concern ourselves with brewing for the ti being.
Alright, go attend to your duties, and inform imdiately if there’s anything.”
After saying this, Lin Yi walked towards his own courtyard.
And upon seeing Lin Yi turn around, Wu Lei imdiately bowed to Lin Yi’s retreating figure:
“Your subordinate will rember your instructions.”
Ti flew by, and more than half a month passed.
The store in the East Market, initially surrounded by fabric, had been completely finished.
And on the big cloth banner outside, the original number 30 had now changed into a large nural 3.
As the na suggests, it would be opening in three days.
Over the past month, this place had beco the focus of the entire Capital City, attracting countless literati and scholars to gather here, stopping in front of the curtains in fascination.
Even within this month, a rather decent temporary tavern had opened up next door.
And it made them a tidy profit.
After all, everyone needs to eat, and these literary n were no exception.
After admiring Master Ouyang’s calligraphy to their hearts’ content, it was only natural for them to dine at the neighboring restaurant.
Gradually, many people began to see the business opportunity in this.
Seeing how popular the tavern was, the establishnt across from it also started decorating conspicuously, which was clearly also going to be another tavern.
Seeing this made Lin Yi couldn’t help but give them a thumbs up, marveling at their business savvy and intelligence.
“Hey you, fill a colorless glazed cup with clear water and put it on this counter.”
Standing inside a room decorated with glittering and translucent glaze, Lin Yi’s heart was filled with one word.
This word belonged to one of the five elents, but it was not related to tal, wood, water, or fire at all.
That’s right, at this mont, looking at the house, Lin Yi’s first thought was ‘earth’.
If this decor were placed in the future, it would certainly be ridiculed, but in the current era, it was the epito of trendiness and luxury.
You have to understand, this glaze is very precious.
Even a single glass bead can be worth a fortune.
But who would have imagined that even the walls here are inlaid with huge glazed bricks?
Not only the walls, but even the floors these guests step on after entering are made of glazed tiles.
That’s not all; even the chandeliers above their heads used for holding candles were made of glass.
And their shapes dazzled so brightly that it was hard to open the eyes.
At this ti, other than the extrely luxurious decorations, this store also had a completely different layout compared to all other stores.
Inside this spacious room, long counters were placed along both sides and the middle.
Behind the counters were exquisite shelves.
Looking at those long counters, one could see the contents inside at a glance.
