Time Travel: I am the idle king Li Shen and Li Shimin in the Tang Dynasty

Li Shen was very angry. Even though Wang Xuance kept apologizing to Li Shen, Li Shen did not calm down.

The happy atmosphere just now was destroyed without a trace by Wang Xuance's words. Wang Xuance's words were like a steel knife stabbing Li Shen's heart.

It made his heart ache badly.

Looking at the masterpiece in Shitou's hand, Li Shen suddenly felt that it was not so good anymore.

"Your Majesty, I am a poor scholar and do not understand your intention. Please do not argue with me."

Seeing that Li Shen was still angry, Wang Xuance had to start coaxing him again.

Although this young prince is already twenty years old, he is still like a young boy. He is casual by nature and gets angry at anything.

"Hmph, just keep it to yourself. Go back and write a letter to the princess, telling her to keep drinking.

The main target group is literati and scholars.

Make the restaurant more elegant and heroic. Those sour scholars, who are weak in themselves, always want to imagine themselves as heroic knights.

They all want to travel all over the country and do justice everywhere.

Then we will satisfy them and name it "Bei Mo Ting", which means it means being generous as long as you don't stop drinking.

The drinks in a restaurant should not be of the same type. Give them multiple names, such as "Wine Fights All Directions", "Wine Turns Eighteen Bends", etc.

Whoever successfully completes the challenge will have his name written on the wall of the challenge area.

As for the wine, I will write a recipe later. Our wine workshop produces so many kinds of wine, and the power when mixed together is very great.

The drinks in the challenge area are more expensive and are served in glass cups.

The rest can be done according to the Tianshangrenjian wine club model.

Drinking is more fun when you have both literary and martial arts skills.

By the way, when you write to the masters, I want 20% of the profits, otherwise the name and the recipe of the wine cannot be used.

It would be better for me to open one myself."

Li Shen talked a lot. As a modern man, Li Shen had plenty of ideas for opening a restaurant.

Any idea was enough for them, and there were few marketing methods during this period.

"Yes, I will write back to the princess right away." Wang Xuance bowed.

"No need, just write it here. It's a good opportunity for you to write a letter home for me." Li Shen pointed to the table.

"Your Highness, I will take my leave first." Xue Rengui stood up and bowed. He had nothing else to say here.

All that needs to be reported has been reported.

"Well, do what I told you. Remember not to alert the enemy and make sure that the third squad leader does not reveal his true identity. The sharp blade is the key.

The guards must protect His Majesty with all their heart and soul and not slack off."

Li Shen nodded in agreement.

"I obey your command." Xue Rengui saluted again and then stepped out.

Wang Xuance sat down and began to write a letter to Li Shen.

It was nothing more than asking if anything happened at Lu Dingniang's home and whether her four little babies were all right.

In order to make Lu Dingniang happy, she asked the eldest son Li Wei a few more questions. After all, most of the family business would be inherited by Li Wei in the future.

He also asked his little cotton-padded jacket Xixi whether she had learned well.

They were all trivial family matters, and Wang Xuance wrote them down one by one in the letter.

After writing several pages, I began to write the name Li Shen had given to the restaurant, Bei Mo Ting.

He also wrote down some of Li Shen's ideas, including the style of decoration and how to attract literati and scholars.

How should you try to mix drinks? Just mix it with anything that won’t kill you.

The key point is the 20% bonus that Li Shen wants.

Even if a grasshopper is small, it is still meat. You can't let your ideas go to waste, otherwise you will be sorry for yourself.

After writing the letter, Li Shen stamped it with his own personal seal. It wasn't a secret letter, so there was no need to stamp anything else.

Just seal it with paint and ask Wang Xuance to send someone back.

“Let someone send it back, and also report the matter of the flying money.

One more thing, our shipyard in Fuzhou should not stop and let the craftsmen continue to build large clipper ships.

We also let them develop their own ships based on the clipper ships that can carry more cargo.

Tell the craftsmen that I am a generous king. If they can figure it out, I will help them get rid of their nationality.

Their descendants can study, take the imperial examinations and become officials in the court.

This king will also reward them with good farmland, houses, money, and even help them marry and have children, so that they can work hard. "

Li Shen suddenly thought of the shipyard in Fuzhou. After the Roger Pirates and the Straw Hat Pirates had already set sail,

The Prince Ji’s Mansion did not continue to build ships.

But Li Shen is now going to build a ship again.

"Your Highness, are you going to open the sea route?" Wang Xuance asked.

The cost of building a ship is very high, and the cost of research and development is even higher. It is very likely that the ship you have worked so hard to develop will be worse than the previous one after it is built and launched.

However, since Prince Ji wants to conduct research and development, it means that Prince Ji has other purposes.

"You are right. I think it is time to sail by sea."

Li Shen nodded. Both the Roger Pirates and the Straw Hat Pirates were pirates, acting as the navy.

It is the maritime armed force of Prince Ji’s Palace and may serve as a guard force in the future.

The Prince Ji's Mansion currently lacks a regular ocean-going merchant fleet, a large-scale one.

This may be of great help in the future.

“In this case, I think our Ji Wangfu should build another port in the south in addition to Fuzhou.

This way, the north and south can be connected, and a lot of travel can be saved. Fuzhou can mainly go to the East China Sea, and the south can go to the South China Sea. "

After hearing Li Shen's words, Wang Xuance suggested.

"Yes, you are right. You should write a letter to Wang Hongfu and ask him to buy more land in the name of Prince Ji's Mansion along the coast of Guangzhou Protectorate.

Recruit local residents to build ports and docks.

If the scale is larger, it won’t be long before that place becomes an important port for the Tang Dynasty to export to the outside world.”

The Maritime Silk Road is not just a name, it is the main sea route to West Asia, Africa and even Europe.

It played an important role in ancient times.

The Maritime Silk Road usually lands in the Tang Dynasty in Guangzhou, so Li Shen wanted to seize the opportunity.

"Your Majesty, why don't we buy some Kunlun slaves and let them serve as sailors. They are good at water and have docile personalities."

Wang Xuance suggested again.

"Kunlun slaves?" Li Shen certainly knew about Kunlun slaves, but the Prince Ji's Mansion had never bought any Kunlun slaves.

It’s not because Li Shen has any kind heart, but because Li Shen is worried.

Kunlun slaves were one of the three standard treasures of the upper-class aristocrats in the Tang Dynasty, along with Kunlun slaves, Silla maids, and Bodhisattva barbarians.

The nobles were proud of having these three things and competed with each other to show off.

What Li Shen was worried about was the loyalty of the Kunlun slaves, so he felt more at ease using his own people.

“Your Majesty, our palace has never bought any Kunlun slaves. If our Ji Palace was not rich, we would definitely be laughed at by other nobles.

However, since we are going to form a fleet, I think Kunlun Slave is the best choice."
