When he woke up in the morning, Li Yan finished washing up and trotted around the royal palace. His body was the capital of the revolution, and he had already developed the habit of morning exercise.

After jogging for a while, Li Yan passed by the living area of ​​the servants of the royal palace. At this time, the servants also got up, washed their faces and fed water. When they saw Li Yan coming, they all greeted him respectfully.

Li Yan said hello and continued running. He turned his head and said "bang", and bumped into someone. Li Yan was dizzy and felt as if he had hit a wooden stake and sat on the ground.

"Your Highness!" Jin Daqian's voice was filled with panic. He hurriedly ran over to help Li Yan up, and scolded the person who blocked Li Yan's way: "You stupid guy, why are you so careless!"

Li Yan came to his senses and saw clearly the "object" he hit. It turned out to be a big bearded man with a tiger back and a bear waist. There were only a few servants in the palace. Li Yan had never seen such a person, and couldn't help but look at Jin Daqian with doubts.

Jin Daqian understood, "Prince, didn't you ask me to post a notice two days ago to recruit a few guards? The notice has been posted these days, but no one is willing to come. Now, as soon as I opened the door this morning, this guy said he came to the palace to apply for the election. I saw that he was thick and solid, so I let him in. If you are not satisfied, I will let him leave immediately."

Li Yan stood up and walked around the big man, marveling. This man was not only strong but also about 1.9 meters tall, and he looked really intimidating.

"What's your name?" A few days ago, Lu Boyan and his servants rushed in, and rushed in with the encirclement of the servants of the royal palace. He felt that it was necessary to add some force to your own Liang Palace, which made Jin Daqian recruit people.

"I'm Sima Tu!" The big man's voice was like a bell, like a striking fight between metal and stone, which was intimidating.

Li Yan stood a little far away from this guy, and his ears were a little ache. "No one can help Liang's Mansion, what are your abilities?"

Sima Tu didn't say anything, glanced at the two stone lions at the door of the royal palace, walked over with big strodes, and raised a stone lion over his head like a baby.

The prince's chin immediately fell all over the floor, and the stone lion was at least seven or eight hundred kilograms. Sima Tu raised it up just like playing.

Li Yan's eyes widened. If this guy was in the 21st century, would the world weightlifting champion still have a way out?

"The hero is indeed very skillful!" Li Yan secretly called to pick up the treasure, "I wonder how much monthly salary a hero wants?"

Sima Tu patted the dust on his hands, and then he felt a little embarrassed, "Just be full!"

"Don't worry about it!" Li Yan and Jin Daqian looked at each other, and were a little surprised. This requirement was too low. Could it be that the talents of the Tang Dynasty were not worth much? Li Yan thought to himself.

After accepting Sima Tu, Li Yan was in a good mood and hummed a tune and walked towards the back hall. In the past two days, Li Yan purchased another batch of shampoo for the servants of the royal palace to bottle it. He didn't know how the progress was now.

The bottle was managed by the high accountant. Li Yan arrived at the back hall and the high accountant immediately came over, "Your Highness!"

"How is it?" Li Yan glanced at the five busy people.

"Report to the prince, now he has about 2,000 boxes, and it is still a few people who drove them out in shifts!"

Li Yan nodded: "Yes, thank you all for your hard work. When this batch of goods is loaded, each person will be given a reward of 500 yuan!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Five hundred coins were almost as good as their monthly salary. The five servants, who were originally a little depressed, were immediately energetic as if they had applied Indian divine oil, and their combat power soared.

Shampoo is now famous in Chang'an, and orders from the palace have surged. Four hundred boxes are far from enough. Empress Changsun has already included shampoo on the palace procurement list. Li Yan is of course happy to see this.

The palace is certainly a good market, but Li Yan understands that the market that really makes money is outside the imperial city. This can be seen from the merchants from all over the country waiting for Li Yan to meet outside the palace that their sense of money is no worse than that of Li Yan.

Li Yan was thinking, and a cheerful voice came from outside the door, "Liu Lang, what are you busy with?" As soon as he said, he also arrived in the hall.

"Third Brother? Why are you here?" Li Yan was very familiar with this voice. After he resurrected the corpse, the first thing he heard was this voice.

Li Ke opened the fan and slapped it a few times, "What? Isn't welcome!"

"How dare I? I'm not happy yet. Is this one?" A fat man dressed in a business trip standing beside Li Ke. This guy looked at the shampoo on the ground with a wolf-like gaze since he entered the door, which made Li Yan very upset.

"Meet Your Highness Six. The youngest is named Tong Nian. He is a businessman from Chang'an City!" Without waiting for Li Ke to speak, the guy began to introduce himself.

Li Yan returned a greeting and roughly understood Li Ke's intention for this visit. Sure enough, after talking nonsense with Li Yan for a while, Li Ke talked about the main topic:

"Lao Liu, your shampoos are now famous. If you buy them, you don't plan to sell them outside the palace."

As soon as Li Ke finished speaking, Tong Nian immediately pricked up his ears and waited for Li Yan's answer, which shows that he was very concerned about this matter.

"Of course not!" Li Yan glanced at Tong Nian and didn't say anything.

Li Ke understood and smiled and said, "Old Tong, you are waiting for me outside, my sixth brother and I have something to say."

"Yes, the Third Prince!" Tong Nian was reluctant to leave, but left the room.

Tong Nian left, Li Yan said, "Third Brother, why are you getting involved with these businessmen?"

Li Ke said with a bitter face: "Lao Liu, you know that I like to make friends with famous scholars. The expenses are very high, and the monthly salary is not enough at all. Who would have thought that after Tong Nian found out, he would respect the royal family a lot of silver every year. Recently, he didn't know where he found out about shampoo, so he kept begging me to bring him to the news. I took other people's money, but it was because my hand was short!"

Before Zhenguan, merchants had a low status. Although Li Shimin promoted the status of merchants after ascending the throne, the old concept could not be changed in a short while. In order to prevent being extorted and cunning, many merchants began to curry favor with officials and nobles in order to find a backer. These things are very common in Chang'an and are also the default of everyone. Otherwise, they would not have enough money to have fun with just a monthly salary.

After all, Li Ke is his own brother, and he plans to start selling to the public recently. He just wants to be a pure wholesaler and is too lazy to organize caravans to sell. In this way, he has to rely on these merchants. It is also good to sell Li Ke as a favor now.

After thinking about it, Li Yan said, "I understand what you mean, I will give him a place!"

"Sixth brother, thank you brother here!" Li Ke was worried. In the past, Li Yan never bought anyone's account. For this reason, he was worried before, but he didn't expect Li Yan to agree so happily.

After seeing Li Ke off, Li Yan went back to change his clothes. To be honest, he had not visited Chang'an City yet. Now all matters in the royal palace are getting on track, so he has leisure.

Jin Daqian asked the servants of the royal palace to prepare a carriage, but Li Yan refused the suggestion of having several servants accompany him and headed towards the central area of ​​Chang'an City.

During the Tang Dynasty, Chang'an City was the most luxurious international city in the world at that time. In addition to the local residents of the Tang Dynasty, there were many merchants from countries in the Western Regions, and many other countries sent international students to study in the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, it is not a strange thing to walk across the street of Chang'an City to welcome a blond and blue-eyed foreigner.

According to historical records, at this time, Chang'an City was more than 70 miles away. The palace city where the emperor and concubines lived. Outside the imperial city where officials worked was the vastest outer city. Among them, the outer city has 108 yards, which are covered with monasteries, mansions and houses. There are east and west cities on both sides, about one thousand meters in length and width, and the warehouses and shops are lined up one after another. It is the most prosperous and lively area in Chang'an City.

Li Yan is now in the East City among the two cities, and the scene in front of him shocked him. The East City was crowded with people, standing side by side, and vendors shouted one after another, and actors showed their talents. You just finished singing and I sang.

Li Yan followed the crowd and was dazzled by the dazzling array of goods, including fruits, melon seeds, cloth, and dried meat, and the complex species also surprised him slightly.

With a shout, a burst of cheers suddenly broke out in the crowd, and then the abortion changed direction. Li Yan was carried away and walked to a place. When the abortion stopped again, he came to a beautifully shaped building on the street.

On the second floor, a woman in red gauze was dancing with her waist lightly twisting her water snake-like waist, constantly throwing her charming eyes to the people downstairs who were enjoying her eyes. Several young men in bright clothes cheered loudly, and then walked in under the guidance of the servant.

"Lichunyuan is amazing. All the ways to attract customers are used. The dancer who dances upstairs is said to be a princess from a Hu tribe, and she looks like a fairy."

"Isn't it? I heard that the pervert Lu Boyan failed to pursue the first courtesan, and changed his goal to her, and he was shameless."

"At least, we have the capital to pursue, so we can only enjoy the fun of it when we are at this time!"

"This brother Taiwan knows the inside story so well, it seems that he is a regular visitor to Huajie. He actually knows about Lu Boyan." Someone joked.

"Ahem, keep a low voice, my wife is shopping in front!"

“…”

Amid the discussions of people around him, Li Yan looked up at the plaque in front of the building, which indeed had the words "Lichunyuan" written on it.

The dancer's performance was like a flash in the pan. With a sigh, the people gathered in front of the Lichun Courtyard dispersed again. Li Yan raised his steps and was about to leave. At this time, a noise sounded, and dozens of people dressed in servants blocked the door of the Lichun Courtyard. A middle-aged man in fifties, wearing armor rushed into the Lichun Courtyard with two axes without saying a word. Countless screams immediately sounded in the building. Then, a person who was dressed in disheveled and somewhat similar to the middle-aged man ran out of the Lichun Courtyard. The middle-aged man followed closely behind, dancing with axe, as if he was about to split the young man into pieces.
