I had a long discussion with Li Qifeng, but Li Qifeng grew up in a sect and knew nothing about making money.
The methods he came up with were all about making things to sell, and his common sense of life was much worse than Ye Xing's.
Ye Xing also thought a lot. For the first time without practicing, he took out a pen and paper and listed one by one what the world needs now.
In fact, it has been several months since he came to the county town, and these things have already been analyzed, and now they are just written down.
For ordinary people, it means food, clothing, housing and transportation: real estate is no longer good, it is too slow;
Okay, now it's a carriage, a car is out of the question.
Food is okay, but making money is still too slow, and the profit is definitely not high;
Clothing may only be needed by women; there is also a need for medical treatment, which is okay, but Ye Xing doesn't want to do this.
For wealthy people, life span is the most important, followed by entertainment and entertainment, and then novelty and fun.
The so-called poor in literature and rich in martial arts means that people like warriors and monks are generally rich, but what they want is elixirs, martial arts, and weapons.
Ye Xing doesn't know how to make elixirs or weapons, and he doesn't seem to have the idea to learn them. They are both difficult and make money very slowly.
Listing more than ten items, Ye Xing found that only by earning money from rich people could he get a lot of money as quickly as possible.
All this is obvious, that is, there are only novel things. Thinking that I have a few things in my hand that are novel to this world.
The magnifying glasses, telescopes, and microscopes we have now are of course not available in this world. However, these are military-level secrets and must not be sold, at least not now.
But what about the rest?
Ye Xing thought of glass products. This is okay. In fact, any shiny thing is loved by people. Even animals will want shiny things. It is really strange.
But this is a fact, especially women, when they see shiny and shiny things, they will completely lose their composure.
Ye Xing really can't understand why? Maybe this is biological instinct.
Any style of glass product can be made as long as you think of it, and they are absolutely novel in this world.
The key is to be able to produce in unlimited quantities! Just think about it, there is a lot of sand!
This extremely expensive shiny and transparent thing is only bought by rich people, and only rich families want this kind of status symbol.
Ye Xing thought of the following types, glass balls, glass ornaments, glass figures, animals, plants, etc.
Ye Xing felt that he had no artistic talent, so he decided to forget about designing characters and animals, so he decided to make two things: crystal balls, crystal chains, or variations of these two things, which should be easy to make.
The next day, Ye Xing went to find his master and asked for 20,000 taels of silver. Li Xuantong saw Ye Xing coming in a hurry to ask for money, and asked Ye Xing what he was doing, and Ye Xing said he wanted to buy some weapons.
Li Xuantong completely trusted this disciple, so he let him do the work without asking any questions.
Ye Xing asked the blacksmith to make a few more molds, and brought them back to the military camp with a large number of tools such as hatchets and saws.
Ye Xing stopped the military training, gave each group some hatchets and saws, and asked them to go up the mountain to chop down trees and get hard and tough wax wood. Each person prepared two wooden sticks that were one foot and two feet long and thick at the wrist. Starting tomorrow Training marksmanship.
To ensure safety, there is no gun tip, but one end is slightly sharpened to look like a spear.
Ye Xing asked four assistants to get the whitest sand from last time, and went to the city to buy various ores. You don't need a lot, just buy a few pieces of each. When everything was ready, Ye Xing started smelting.
The last time he smelted glass, Ye Xing had already taken a lot of notes. This time he was familiar with the process and quickly made five fist-sized ones made of five different minerals: purple, red, blue, yellow and colorless. Glass ball.
After an afternoon of polishing, the surface became extremely smooth. The five crystal balls were named after Ye Xing, who didn't want to decide on a nice name.
Because glow stone components of different colors are added to it for smelting, it will emit different light when placed in a dark place. It is extremely dazzling and charming, making people addicted to it all at once.
Ye Xing took it out and asked a carpenter to make five small brocade boxes using the most precious red sandalwood. The boxes were also lined with colored silk and placed crystal balls inside.
For the sake of simulation, the brocade box was also aged. This old-fashioned method was thought up by Ye Xing himself.
In fact, it is very simple, just smoke it first, then soak it in corrosive dirty water, and then wash it clean.
After finishing all this, it was already late at night. Ye Xing did not hide Li Qifeng. He worked hard all day and came up with some new things.
Li Qifeng is an absolutely curious baby. When he hears about something new, he doesn't want to wait for a second and wants to see it right away.
Ye Xing had no choice but to let him, but he still let him see it after closing the door and window, so that he could appreciate his masterpiece.
Li Qifeng was obsessed with it as soon as he saw it. He couldn't put it down and wanted one to his death.
Ye Xing told him that it was used in exchange for military expenses, and he promised to make a more beautiful one for him in a few days, so he reluctantly put it in Ye Xing's hand and asked him to take it back and put it away.
The next day, Ye Xing watched Li Qifeng teach the new recruits marksmanship and shared some of his opinions, that is, there is no need to stick to routines, and actual group combat should be the main thing. These are soldiers who are fighting and have no chance to fight alone.
Li Qifeng also agreed that the professor's marksmanship did not focus on any skills. It was all straightforward moves, focusing on fast, accurate and ruthless strikes.
Ye Xing looked at it for a while, but didn't have any new ideas, so he went into the city to find his master.
Li Xuantong, like Li Qifeng, was stunned when he saw Ye Xing's things. The eager gaze was the same as that of a woman looking at gems. No one, including an expert like the city lord, could resist any shiny thing. .
Ye Xing explained that he spent a whole day making it and asked him to find ways to sell it, and he must sell it at a high price.
Li Xuantong quickly understood Ye Xing's intention to raise military expenditures!
In fact, Li Xuantong really has a headache. He has a city guard army that can still support him, but the expenses are also difficult.
If you don't have the support of the sect and don't give money, you will definitely not be able to hold on if you set up a city guard army on your own.
The city lord can't do whatever he wants, but he has to be rich before he can let people do things. Changing the taxation law is no joke, and Li Xuantong doesn't dare to stroke the tiger's beard.
Li Xuantong was very excited, staring at Ye Xing full of divine light. He, a disciple who had only been a disciple for more than ten days, had already thought of this for himself, a genius disciple sent by God.
Not to mention qualifications, these incredible abilities alone are genius ideas!
Absolute genius!
Ye Xing suggested, "It's best to hold a treasure auction in the city and invite all the rich men in the city to participate, so that the final price can be pushed up!"
After discussing the details with the master for a long time, he returned to the military camp.
City Lord Li asked the guards to find the boss of Zi Yuexuan, the largest auction house in the city.
Zi Yuexuan is the property of Zi Yue Sect. It has dozens of branches in the Song Dynasty and almost monopolizes the pawnshop and auction business in the Song Dynasty.
After some pleasantries, City Lord Li got straight to the point, opened the treasure box, and said, "Mr. Shi, this is a treasure from the home of a fallen prince in the capital. It is said that it has been a treasure for thousands of years."
"This person is a friend of my sect. Now let me do the auction on my behalf. Can you make arrangements?"
Boss Shi was stunned immediately. He looked at the treasure and his mouth watered. Such a dazzling and mind-blowing thing was really what everyone wanted.
He has seen a lot, but he has never seen such a treasure.
Boss Shi couldn't hear what City Lord said at all, and he didn't react until City Lord Li said it for the second time.
He hurriedly patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, City Lord, I will make arrangements right away. I will definitely make the whole city a sensation and satisfy the City Lord!"
City Lord Li said: "I will keep these treasures first and then send them over! You go and make arrangements!"
Boss Shi nodded, "Yes, City Lord! Well, thank you City Lord for giving us Zi Yuexuan this opportunity. I will go and do it right away! I will definitely make this auction a success!"
City Lord Li waved his hand, indicating that he could go out.
Boss Ziyue Xuanshi finally came to his senses, put away his greedy eyes, bowed his thanks and went out.
City Master Li held the brocade box in his hand and watched Boss Shi say goodbye without hesitation, with a smile on his face!
Then he entered his study room, opened the brocade boxes one by one, and slowly began to appreciate them. He knew clearly that these were handmade creations by Ye Xing, but he still couldn't help but be fascinated by them.
City Master Li kept stroking the five crystal balls with his hands, and the crystal balls emitted extraordinarily bright light from time to time.
For the safety of the treasure, City Lord Li decided to keep the treasure with him. No one in Donghai City dared to come close to him to snatch it, at least there were not many people in the city who were higher in cultivation than him.
