Chapter Thirteen The Lucky Day of the Profiteer

Luoyang, Prince Fu's Mansion

"Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu!"

Lu Xiangsheng's head started to spin when he heard this voice. After careful observation over the past few months, he found that Prince Fu showed no signs of rebellion. So he settled down with peace of mind and read with the little fat man. But who knew that this would happen?

Little brat... No, that little monster, I don’t know where he got such a good spirit. Even if he is good at reading, Lu Xiangsheng himself is considered a child prodigy. But what’s going on in that little fat guy’s mind?

What is it pretending to be?

Two months ago, when the little fat man said that Xu Hongru, a native of Juye County, was going to lead the Wenxiang Cult to rebel, Lu Xiangsheng didn't believe anything he said. In the end, that guy actually led more than 100,000 people to rebel! He was surprised.

, but the little fat man said that smelling the incense would not make a difference, and Xu Hongru would be captured alive before the end of December. I don’t know if he would be captured alive. Anyway, the army’s advance was smooth, and Xu Hongru would not be able to escape for a few days.

And last month, Lu Xiangsheng regretted it when he thought of that incident. That little monster, oh no, it was the little prince. He found some shiny stones from nowhere and insisted that they could turn into fairy wine. I didn’t believe it.

Watching him put just such a small piece into the wine glass he poured, but...he ended up being drunk for three days after drinking it! Afterwards, the young prince even shamelessly said that he was merciful.

Of course, the young prince has not always been so talkative, otherwise he would have been arrested and exhibited. Oh, of course there are not many people who can arrest him.

A few days ago, I don't know what the little prince was making again. He sent little Changzi and many servants in the house to go everywhere to find that kind of stone for him, as well as some gall alum, and said he was going to conduct some experiment.

!Last time, the little fat man was so bored that he used the kitchen alkali noodles and lime to make caustic soda, but that time he also burned a big hole in Lu Xiangsheng's clothes. What is he going to do this time?

"Sir, hurry up, let's go!" Zhu Youcong picked up Lu Xiangsheng and ran out.

"Little prince, what kind of experiment are you going to do this time?" Let's find out first. If the little fat man asks you to be the guinea pig again this time, he really needs to think about it carefully.

"Hey..." Zhu Youcong's face fell when he heard about the experiment: "Xiao Changzi and the others haven't found enough courage yet, and they can't do it now."

Using bile alum to make sulfuric acid was the little fat man’s helpless choice. He also knew that using pyrite would be better and more suitable for large-scale production. Pyrite is available in Xin’an two hundred miles away, but let alone Wu

Vanadium oxide; even diatomaceous earth as a catalyst carrier is hard to find. The nearest production area is in Sichuan, but the best quality is in the Changbai area controlled by the Tatars. He doesn't have the ability to go and get it from the Tatars.

"That's..." It's not just an experiment!

"Brother has asked someone to make bone china! Come on, sir, accompany me to appreciate it!" Zhu Youcong looked excited. This is great! With this bone china, you will have pocket money. At least buy some.

There is no need to cry and fuss to see Fat Dad's troubled face.

"Ancient porcelain?" It wasn't that Lu Xiangsheng was deaf, but that he didn't dare to think about it at all.

Zhu Youcong didn't explain too much, and pulled Lu Xiangsheng along quickly. He was a talented man after all. Let him appraise it first to see if he could deceive others.

"Wood kiln?" Lu Xiangsheng was shocked when he saw the new porcelain all over the floor. He was a well-read man, so of course he knew how difficult it was to fire in a firewood kiln and how precious it was. Now that he suddenly saw so much, what?

There seemed to be many new ones being released, and he couldn't help but be shocked.

"What do you think, sir?" Zhu Youcong was anxious, just waiting for your appraisal results.

Lu Xiangsheng said nothing and carefully picked up a vase. He also knew that this little fat man had the same moral character as his father. If one of them broke and he had to pay for it, he would not have to sell himself! "Dang-" followed. Lu Xiangsheng flicked his fingers, and a clear voice sounded...

"No, this is not a wood kiln! This thing is thinner and more brittle than a wood kiln! Excellent, exquisite!" Lu Xiangsheng sighed sincerely. This was the first time he had seen such good porcelain, and he really couldn't put it down.

"That's... it's done?" Zhu Yousong, who had been silent next to him, also became excited. Several months have passed since the day he got the formula. He failed, failed and failed again, and today he finally succeeded! He It’s like seeing money flying all over the sky!

"I wonder... what's the name of this thing? How much is it worth?" Lu Xiangsheng carefully thought about it. If it wasn't too expensive, he would buy himself a set of the four treasures of the study.

"Fu Kiln! This thing is called Fu Kiln Jade Porcelain!" Zhu Youcong didn't dare to say that this thing was called bone china anymore. He stamped it with a "bang" sound. What is the name of the product produced by Prince Fu's Mansion if it's not called Fu Kiln? Who has an opinion? If you have an opinion, just say it. Don’t keep it in your heart, it will hurt you! Speak it out. If you say it, I will call a group of guards to go to your house to eat and drink. After that, I will lead your cattle and pull you. Home pig!

"Come on, pick out some fine items for Mr. Lu." Zhu Youcong doesn't want to use it himself, but that doesn't stop him from being generous. Anyway, they are all items from his own family that don't cost much. Lu Xiangsheng's move just now caught his eye. Here, why don't you show off at this time? When will you wait?

"Why... I'm going to order people to pack and ship it because of my brother?" Zhu Yousong couldn't wait any longer. He had been oppressed by his stingy father in the past few years, and he was also poor!

"Pack it? Why pack it?" The shameless Zhu Youcong didn't want to just take it out and sell it. After finally making it, he had to make a big fortune first! Ignoring his anxious elder brother, He turned around and told Xiao Changzi: "Go, pick out all the defective products, find a few skilled painters, and polish them with cowhide day and night; when you're done, put alkaline noodles in tea and cook for a few hours. Finally, bury it in the soil and dig it out after a month."

"This... fourth brother, what are you doing?" Zhu Yousong felt distressed. Although he chose a defective product, with this quality... he could sell it for hundreds of taels if he took it out again. How could this little brother waste his natural resources like this?

"It's old-fashioned!" Zhu Youcong rolled his eyes, sincerely despising the elder brother in front of him who only cares about making a little money and drinking a little wine all day long, and has no ambition. "Brother, why are you so anxious? After all this trouble, what can I do? Call those defective products a firewood kiln and sell them for five hundred thousand taels each!"

Zhu Youcong calculated that this trick can only be used once. But what's the point? We can sell a few defective products and then put them on the market in large quantities. By then, we can sell hundreds of taels each and make a lot of profit. What? Buy it. What to do with people who sell fake goods? It’s none of my business. Anyone who can spend five hundred thousand taels to buy a broken bottle these days is definitely not a good person; even if he is a good person, he is a good person with bad eyesight.

What is this little monster doing? Lu Xiangsheng was also dumbfounded. He was not a profiteer from later generations, and he had never heard of old porcelain. In his opinion, the quality of this batch of porcelain was definitely superior, but it was only worth a thousand taels at most. Silver. But this little fat guy... I'm speechless, so treacherous! Five hundred thousand taels? Pay back one? Or did you choose a defective product?

"Bang!"

"oops--"

Lu Xiangsheng laughed. He wanted to look up to the sky and laugh, but he couldn't. Although it was late summer and the sun was still too dazzling, he had better lower his head and laugh. Little fat man, I told you to do evil, to cheat and cheat, and to deceive others! You have been punished by God.

, I was hit! I deserved it! I deserved it!

"Little...little prince...back...backyard..."

Backyard? What happened to the backyard? Zhu Youcong stopped the loud howl that was about to leave. Is there a fire in the backyard? It doesn’t look like it. Didn’t you see the thick smoke billowing? The ground in the backyard subsided? It shouldn’t happen. I didn’t hear any movement! Is that possible?

No way...a beautiful woman fell from the sky and hit her in the backyard?

"The backyard... a lot of boxes fell in the backyard, and... there was also a man named Mo, who said... he wanted to see the young prince!" The guard who hit someone didn't bother to apologize, and finally stammered what happened.

Clear.….

Box? His surname is Mo? Could it be that old liar? Could it be that...did he send money? Wow - I'm getting rich. I'm really getting rich now! Isn't today my lucky day? I'll wait tomorrow

I'll find a fortune teller to take a closer look! Well, by the way, I'll ask Lu Xiangsheng to record it. I'll go out for a walk every year from now on!

"Little Prince!" As soon as Mo Huni saw Zhu Youcong, he hurried up to greet him and said excitedly: "Thank you, Little Prince, for your guidance. We... woo woo... we can finally go home! This time I made a special trip for you.

deliver……"

Old liar Mo? Who? Who dares to call me a liar? Be careful, I will ask the guards to beat you up! I am the most honest and kind-hearted interstellar friend, okay?

Before Mo Huni could finish speaking, Zhu Youcong tried his best to break free from his restraints. He opened a box and wow - it was sparkling gold! It was gold! Open another box! It's dazzling, it's quite dazzling! Count them, okay

Hundreds of boxes!

"Quick! Quick! Open! Open them all!" Following Zhu Youcong's order, the guards, maids, and eunuchs who were still standing stupidly became busy. For a moment, there was a golden light in the backyard of Prince Fu's Mansion, and there was a sound of gasping in the courtyard.

!

"This is the eight million taels we agreed upon at the beginning! Little prince, is it okay?" Perhaps it was because gold was not valuable at all on their planet, but Mohuni's tone was still so calm.

"No, no, no!" Order? What do you want me to order? Eight million taels, so I can't wait until next year!

"Our captain has something else to give to the young prince!"

Is there anything else? Good people, good people! Although it took several months to send the money, there is still interest! Zhu Youcong was so excited that he could not speak, and kept nodding his head.

"Our captain specially gave the mount to the young prince. It will only recognize the first person it sees on your planet, so..." In a large black box, Mohuni explained patiently.

"Okay! Okay!" Although he didn't give any more valuable things such as gold and diamonds, Zhu Youcong was still very happy. The mount was given by the aliens. Can it be bad?

"My mission has been completed. Goodbye, young prince!" In a ray of light, Mohuni slowly rose until he disappeared.

"Goodbye! Goodbye! Come more often when you have time!" Zhu Youcong muttered, Goodbye. It's best if you don't have any fuel when you come next time. Then I'll kidnap people and seize the ship!

"Brother! Ask people to move the boxes and charge the money!" Eh! No response? Where are the people? Why are they all lying on the ground? Uncle Lu Xiangsheng, you are too classless. Just forget it if you are as ignorant as those servants and my brother.

, how can you lie down? And father, when did you come? The ground is cold, even though it is summer, it is easy to get sick!
