"Brother Yi, you're so capable. When it comes to making money, you're unparalleled." Li Longji heard the news and praised Li Yi with a smile.
Li Yi waved his hand. "Third Brother, being rich by yourself is considered inferior. Being able to bring more people to live a good life is considered superior."
Li Yi was modest, but he was actually quite happy. The small glass bottle could indeed be sold for money, but it would not be worth much if it was sold too much.
Giving away a bottle meant that if it was not used in the future, it would have to be filled with glycerin. When the time came, there would be a discount. The first batch of purchases would all cost one person a bottle.
Those who bought it naturally had to help advertise it.
This was especially true for women. Between best friends, they would help each other out.
People who sold kerosene could give away kerosene lamps for free, so giving away a bottle was nothing.
With the four hundred bottles, the advertisement would be released, and the reputation would be established. He would also bribe Pei Yaoqing.
"If the weather gets colder, I'll give out porridge." Li Yi decided to be a good person. He was in a good mood as he increased his lifespan.
"Brother Yi, are you still willing to give alms to ungrateful people?" Li Longji asked a question that he found difficult to answer.
"If a monk is guilty, the sins do not fall on the monks. If a crime is to be punished, the punishment is not to burn down the temple." Li Yi said calmly.
"Brother Yi is indeed like that." Li Longji revealed a comfortable smile.
Empress Wang also revealed a knowing smile. She put down her chopsticks and stopped eating. She was half-full and could eat when she wanted to.
There were two people who were not very happy at the moment.
These two were Yao Chong and Zhang Shuo. When they heard that they still needed to sign, they took the box containing the Thousand Sunset Frost Dew and ran away. They took the box and ran away …
The hotpot was not finished yet, and there was still wine left in the cups.
Their escape was successful, and no one chased after them.
Zhang Shuo was young, so he was not panting heavily. Yao Chong was old, so he was panting.
He said while panting, "Daoji, I dare to bet that the Thousand Sunset Frost Dew in this glass bottle is definitely not worth two thousand. It's at most two hundred."
"Yuanzhi, you're talking too much. Two hundred? Was that something Li Yi could do? Twenty yuan for the contents of this small bottle. How dark! How black-hearted! "Zhang Shuo's tone was ten times worse.
Yao Chong thought for a moment and panted. "Yes, twenty coins. When I run out, I'll ask His Majesty for more. I don't have that kind of money."
"I want a few more crabs." Zhang Shuo patted the snow off his head and rubbed his stomach. He realized that he was still not full.
"Let's go back. I will also find someone to cook a copper hotpot when I get home." Yao Chong recalled the taste of the hotpot. The wine was not as good, but the meat was still very delicious.
The two of them went to look for their followers. Each of them brought four followers with them.
Eight people wearing straw raincoats and bamboo hats were waiting in front with two umbrellas.
"Are you hungry?" Zhang Shuo asked his coachman.
The nearest coachman shook his head. "I'm not hungry. I ate at Zhuangzi's canteen."
Another coachman lowered his voice. "Boss, I realized that anyone who comes in can eat. They can't tell."
Zhang Shuo reached out and slapped the coachman on the head. "Do you think they are stupid? They don't want to ask and leave you some face. Li Dongzhu doesn't want to embarrass people, and he doesn't care about that meal. "
Even if Yao Chong felt that Li Yi was a threat, he had to say at this moment, "Li Dongzhu's conduct can't be judged by common sense. In the city, if he meets the people of Zhuangzi in need, he will do his best to help."
The coachmen responded one after another, indicating that they understood.
The group continued to walk out and then stopped. Yao Chong and Zhang Shuo saw His Majesty's personal guards.
The two of them looked at each other. His Majesty and Empress Wang guaranteed that they came together.
"They must have eaten better than us," Zhang Shuo said bitterly.
"If you can drink a cup of wine, it definitely won't be broken rice wine." Yao Chong looked in the direction of Li Yi's main courtyard. He wanted to go over and eat a few more mouthfuls.
"I asked my family to learn all kinds of cooking, but they couldn't learn. They also stumbled when learning in other restaurants." Zhang Shuo felt hungry when he thought of the food.
Yao Chong closed his eyes. He wanted to erase Li Yi from his mind, but he knew that it was impossible.
The two of them left with their people. Li Longji's guards saluted, meaning that they had seen the two prime ministers and would tell His Majesty later.

"The rolling Yangtze River flows east, and the waves wash away all heroes. Right and wrong, success and failure vanish in a flash. The green hills are still there, and the sunset is still red.
The white-haired fisherman on the riverside, accustomed to the autumn moon and the spring breeze. A pot of turbid wine is a happy reunion. How many things in the past and present are jokes.
It is said that the world is divided for a long time and divided for a long time. This weekend, the seven kingdoms will be divided and merged into Qin … "
After the meal, the three of them drank tea. Empress Wang was in a bad mood because she couldn't go out to play because it was snowing outside.
Therefore, Li Yi began to read according to the information provided by the system. The Romance of the Three Kingdoms was directly a storytelling method.
In the Tang dynasty, the storytelling method was called 'speaking'.
The two eunuchs and two palace maids each wrote a sentence. Li Yi didn't speak quickly.
The two palace maids looked at Li Yi with stars in their eyes.
"Uncle, what you said is different from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms." Empress Wang, who had read the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, said with a smile.
"The Romance of the Three Kingdoms is just like a play. What is recorded in the history books may not be all true. What is said in the story is true, and what is not true is also true. What is said in the story is not true, and what is true is also not true. When the false is true, what is true is false. Where there is nothing, there is nothing. "
Li Yi said and then continued to narrate vividly.
At the same time, he saw the palace maids and eunuchs writing. He really wanted to collect copyright tax for Luo Guanzhong.
One spoke, six listened. As he spoke, he spoke …
"That's right. Man's situation is still from ancient times to present day. Who can tell that a hero is a virgin? A man who is fast is like a winged virtue. Kill all the heartless people in the world! After all, what about Dong Zhuo's life? Listen to the next part of the story. "
Li Yi read and directly read.
"No, continue." Li Longji didn't agree. What do you mean by the next part of the story? Are you trying to break the story with me?
"Yes, uncle, the second part. I want to hear the next part now." Empress Wang was even more straightforward.
"Dong Zhuo's name is Zhong Ying. He is from Longxi's Lintao. He is the governor of Hedong …" Li Yi compromised.
At night, Li Longji and Empress Wang stayed again. Li Longji really wanted to call a palace maid in, but he was worried that Brother Yi would guess something. He just pretended that he wasn't familiar with the palace maids.
Li Yi lay on the bed and sighed. "I have to take it out five times a day. There are only 120 times in total. I won't be able to last more than a few days. I can use Journey to the West with some minor changes. I can't use Water Margin and Dream of the Red Chamber. I don't have time to make major changes. How depressing! "
Li Yi felt dejected. The people who bought the Thousand Sunset Frost Dew were even more dejected than him.
Many of them thought that they wouldn't come again after using it up. They just wanted to earn a glass bottle.
But when they returned home and took out the 'treasure', the women at home began to apply it on their lips.
Glycerin was naturally more comfortable than any other oil. Their lips were dry and cracked, but they didn't hurt as much after applying it.
The glycerin in the small bottle was actually only 15 to 16 milliliters. It was blown in the mold, so it didn't take long.
Those with few people at home could still make do, but for those with many women, half the bottle was gone after each person applied it.
There were also some women who said that they were going out the next day to show off. When they returned, the bottle would be empty.
How could they use it like this?
