Therefore, without batting an eyelid, Huangfu Yuchen glanced at Yan Ge and picked up a imperial report.

Deng Mannde understood his emperor very well. His Majesty neither got angry nor did he allow Yan Ge to withdraw, so there was still a possibility for him to do so. Therefore, he pretended to urge Yan Ge, and said in a low voice: "I agree, the Emperor is busy with official business, you should leave first."

After leaving this time, it would be difficult for him to see the Emperor again. Yan Ge did not want to give up just like that. Since the emperor had not ordered him to leave again, he had yet to get angry. Why not make good use of this loophole? He then turned to Deng Mannde and said softly, "I believe that Eunuch has also heard of Immortal Residence before?"

If Deng Mannde wanted to cooperate with Huangfu Yuchen, he could not not ignore him. He cautiously looked at Huangfu Yuchen and whispered: "I have."

Yan Ge said: "This young master has written a total of one hundred and eight dishes for his family. Each dish has been prepared with a tasty taste, the price of each vegetable dish is two hundred pieces, and the lowest price of each meat dish is one tael. Assuming that Immortal Residence could entertain eight tables worth of guests at the same time, with eight dishes on each table, with four meat dishes and four vegetables, the total price would be four hundred and eight hundred gold coins. The eight tables contained 32 taels of 6,400 pieces of paper, or 38 taels of four hundred pieces of paper. Each table takes at least one hour to eat, and at least nine batches of guests a day. Thus, the total income per day is 345,200 and 600 dollars. "Then, Young Master, do we earn 10,368 silver taels per month?"

His mental calculations were not bad. When it came to calculation, there was almost no pause. Deng Mannde looked at him in shock, "You promised it would come out so quickly?"

Under Huangfu Yuchen's downcast gaze, a trace of interest and contemplation flashed past his eyes.

Yan Ge nodded and continued: "This is still this young master's lowest estimate. The capital city was so big and had so many rich people. If just this restaurant could earn 10,000 taels of silver per month, what would happen if there was a branch? What if he kept bringing out new ideas? What if we were to split up the buildings in other prefectures? "

He deliberately paused before continuing, "This is just one of my ideas. If this young master can come up with more ideas, then he can create more wealth. "

Deng Mannde saw from the corner of his eye that Huangfu Yuchen's finger had silently knocked on the imperial report, and then said: "Your majesty, this servant heard what you said yes, and felt that it was reasonable. Why don't you give him a chance? "

Yan Ge was overjoyed, if there was a chance, he would give Deng Mannde more rewards. He once again prostrated himself in front of Huangfu Yuchen, with a smile on his face, "Your Majesty, according to Attendant's knowledge, some poor families' rice filled water would even be used to wash the dishes. This is called the recycling of resources. Attendant resides in the palace, eating and dressing are all meticulous, they are not willing to enjoy it for nothing, and have nothing to do with it. Why not give Attendant a chance to fully utilize the value of Attendant? "

Deng Mannde could not help but laugh out loud when he heard's interesting words. Seeing that Huangfu Yuchen was looking at him calmly, he quickly straightened up and looked in front of him.

Huangfu Yuchen did not say a word, as if he did not hear their words.

Yan Ge was helpless, he did not expect him to be so low profile, but Huangfu Yuchen remained indifferent. Before he had teleported to this world, he had opened a company and interacted with all kinds of people. There were many who were cunning and cunning, but there had never been someone as unpredictable as Huangfu Yuchen. He could only lick his dry lips and continue to persuade her, "The Da Han Country is heavy. It is not an exaggeration to say that as long as one has a scholar, they would need a brush. The Attendant could invent a pen that was easier to carry around and write. This pen could write smaller words and save paper. Even if each pen was sold for only 2 gold, as long as there were millions of scholars in the world, the profit would be at least 2000 taels. "This is only within the country. If you sell it abroad, you will get 6 gold coins per share, and your profit will double …"

"Oh?" Huangfu Yuchen put down the imperial report, his gaze locking onto Yan Ge's eyes, "You can make such a brush?"

All the Palace Maid s in the palace suddenly had a change in expression. They kneeled down at the same time, their foreheads and arms touching the ground as they winced slightly.

Yan Ge blinked his eyes in confusion and looked at Huangfu Yuchen.

Huangfu Yuchen did not react. Instead, he waved his hand and signaled the Palace Maid s to retreat.

Seeing that Huangfu Yuchen was waiting for his answer, Yan Ge did not want to bother with Palace Maid anymore, and said with certainty, "Reporting to the Emperor, Attendant has already made a preliminary idea, and needs to be tested and verified. The probability of success is ninety percent. "

Huangfu Yuchen stared at him for a long while, until the smile on Yan Ge's face almost froze, and said: You have conditions.

Yan Ge quickly replied: "Attendant does not dare. But Attendant does need a more favourable environment in order to better serve the Emperor. "

Huangfu Yuchen said: "Tell me about it."

Yan Ge thought of his request and his cheeks began to flush. "Since that's the case, then I, the Attendant, will boldly request for the Emperor to raise the number of my Attendant s by 100000 silver taels per person. The Attendant didn't seek for the Emperor's favor, he only wanted his position. Attendant absolutely does not dare to think too much, and only hopes that we can reach Imperial Minister in the end. "

The disdain once again appeared in the depths of Huangfu Yuchen's eyes, and quickly disappeared. He did not mind if Yan Ge wanted to become the Empress. The palace was his territory and no one could escape from his grasp.

"With just a small pen, you can earn 2,000 taels of silver. "100,000 silver is too little."

Yan Ge was shocked, and suddenly had a bad premonition.

Huangfu Yuchen smiled slightly, and his eyes actually became a lot gentler, "200,000 silver. Each time you increase the amount of silver in the treasury by 200,000 silver taels, I will raise your position. "Moreover, if you really can do what you say, I will immediately promote you to a standing existence."

200,000 silver! That was almost equivalent to 200 million RMB! Yan Ge's mouth twitched, he suddenly felt that he should not have come here.

"What is it? Regret it? " Huangfu Yuchen looked at him with interest, enjoying his conflicted expression, "There's no harm in regretting it. I forgive you for being honest. Deng Mannde, send him out. " Since Yan Ge had the guts to say these words to him, raising his rank must be something very important to him. He believed that Yan Ge would not easily give up this opportunity. In order to subdue him with a single move, he wanted him to disarm his.

"Wait!" Yan Ge's mind raced as he readily agreed, "Attendant agreed. But the Attendant still has one condition, in order to make things convenient for the Attendant, I ask for your permission to leave the palace. "

Deng Mannde hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, that is not appropriate. Yan Ying was the imperial concubine after all, so it was against the rules for him to leave the palace. Your majesty, you can't. "

Yan Ge was very disappointed.

Huangfu Yuchen nodded his head, and muttered to himself, "We cannot allow you to stay outside the palace, but we allow you to leave early every morning. You must return to the palace before the end of the year."

That's good. Yan Ge nodded, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Huangfu Yuchen thought for a moment, then said: "In order to avoid trouble, you will live in our Tengloong Hall in the future."

Yan Ge was startled. He only wanted to let the other imperial concubines know that he was close to the Emperor, but did not expect to reap an unexpected harvest.

"You have an objection?" Huangfu Yuchen asked deeply.

Yan Ge quickly replied: "No." Since Tengloong Hall lived here, he had wanted to hug Huangfu Yuchen's thighs to begin with. Living in Tengloong Hall could help him avoid falling in love with the other three male consort s, so why not?

Seeing the two of them fighting back and forth, Deng Mannde couldn't help but be worried, and asked hesitantly, "Your majesty, do you really want to accept my request? "Yan Ying is the imperial concubine after all. If he leaves the palace like this every day, I'm afraid it'll be safer …"

Yan Ge was speechless. What safety? They were obviously worried that he would put on a green hat for the emperor, right?

Huangfu Yuchen looked at Deng Mannde appreciatively, "Deng Mannde's worries are reasonable. I agree, you only have one Palace Maid and one eunuch by your side, you don't have enough manpower. "In that case, I'll send you two helpers."

Yan Ge sighed helplessly to himself. They must have been there to spy on him. However, he couldn't care so much now. He was already satisfied with half of his freedom every day. He would slowly scheme for other matters in the future. He could only hope that the reward he would receive from the system in the future would be worthy of his sacrifice.

"That's great. Attendant thanks the Emperor. "

Huangfu Yuchen said to Deng Mannde, "Announce Gao Feng, Gao Yun."

After a while, two tall men came striding in. They wore black robes and had a black cape bordered with red. Whether it was their aura, their posture, or their steps, they all had the air of soldiers. They were stern and swift. From their silent footsteps, Yan Ge deduced that they were all practitioners.

"Your subordinate pays his respects to the Emperor!"

"Rise." Huangfu Yuchen said to Yan Ge, "They belong to the Janissary Guard, and are the top experts in the palace. They will follow you from now on."

Yan Ge kneeled down to express his gratitude.

Huangfu Yuchen said to Gao Feng and Gao Yun, "From now on, Yan promise is your master and you must protect him well. Do you all understand? "

"Your subordinate obeys." Gao Feng said at the same time as Gao Yun.

Huangfu Yuchen said: "Alright, I agree, kneel down."

"Yes!" Attendant said his farewells. "

Huangfu Yuchen leaned back in the chair relaxed, and watched Yan Ge's figure disappear behind the curtain with interest.

Deng Mannde asked, "Your majesty seems to be interested in Yan Ying's promise?"

Huangfu Yuchen said: "We are indeed very curious, whether or not he is truly as capable as he says, we will see. I do not wish for today's matter to be spread. The previous Palace Maid … "

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, leave it to this servant." Deng Mannde said.

Early morning: 7 AM.
