When Liu Rushi heard about beauty pageants, he immediately became interested and asked, "You said beauty pageants, how many beauties have you chosen for the emperor?" Yi Tusheng shook his head and sighed, "No one is chosen. There are really no beauties in the capital except my family. In my opinion, if Rushi is sent to the palace, the emperor will definitely like it."

"Master makes fun of me." Liu Rushi said shyly.

At this time, someone suddenly came outside the door to report, "Your Majesty, Bi Shihu from the Zhejiang East Chamber of Commerce has come, and said he would meet the prince." Yi Tusheng asked Liu Rushi: "Do you like this hairpin?" Liu Rushi thought to himself, since it was given by someone, why did he send it back to him, so he reluctantly said, "I like it."

Yi Tusheng said, "That's good. I'll go see the guests now and come back to accompany you later."

Yi Tusheng came outside and saw Bi Shihu standing respectfully in the living room waiting. After Yi Tusheng came out, he sat upright on the Grand Master's chair and said casually: "Boss Bi, please sit down. You come to find me and don't know what it is worth!" In fact, Yi Tusheng knew that Bi Shihu was asking about beauty selection, and he deliberately pretended not to know, mainly because he was not very satisfied with Bi Shihu's gifts and hoped that he would give out more.

Bi Shihu lowered his waist and said, "Prince, come and ask, how did you do when you asked you to pave the way for the little girl's attack a few days ago?" Yi Tusheng thought to himself, you, an old man, took out a few melons and wanted to enter the palace. Do you think the palace is your own land, so it's not so easy.

Yi Tusheng sipped tea and greeted Bi Shihu: "Please sit down, Boss Bi."

Bi Shihu also gave Yi Tusheng ten thousand taels of silver, but Yi Tusheng didn't do anything. How could Bi Shihu continue to do it? He was so anxious that he said, "I'd better stand."

Yi Tusheng said: "Boss Bi, if you want to climb the dragon and the phoenix, you must know that the price of climbing the dragon and the phoenix. The money you gave me is not enough. You have to handle everything from top to bottom. If you can't get through that level, your daughter can't enter the palace. So, that thing has not been done yet. Drink tea, drink tea."

Bi Shihu's sweat was left behind. As the president of the Zhejiang East Chamber of Commerce, one of the three major chambers of commerce in the Ming Dynasty, he controlled half of China's salt business. He was a famous big salt merchant with billions of wealth in the Ming Dynasty. In his eyes, the Shanxi merchants and Hui merchants were just small fish and shrimps. Even if he asked him to take out one million taels of silver, it would be a piece of cake. However, he was stingy and could not bear to spend money if he had money. If it weren't for his daughter, he wouldn't have been willing to take out the ten thousand taels. Therefore, when Yi Tusheng said this, he was immediately stunned.

"Ten thousand taels of silver is not enough. So, Prince, tell me, how much silver is needed to be enough?"

Yi Tusheng stretched out three fingers and said, "This number?"

Bi Shihu jumped up and said, "Thirty thousand taels?"
