I am invincible in the Empress Palace!

Luo Hongyan looked at Ye Chen with a strange expression.

If the production capacity of the Royal Paper Mill goes up, even if the paper tax is zero, it will be useless if the paper produced by the Lin family cannot be sold!

"Ye Chen, I'll talk to them again tomorrow."

"See if they are willing to compromise!"

"If I want, I don't need their paper mill, I can let them continue to make this money!"

Luo Hongyan said.

The paper will come out tomorrow, so she has to look at the cost and the quality of the paper.

Also, if the Lin family and others are willing to compromise, Luo Hongyan, as the emperor, doesn't need to compete with them for this benefit!

"Ah."

Ye Chen nodded, he knew that thinking from Luo Hongyan's point of view was different from the point of view of an ordinary businessman!

"Hongyan, you can make an appointment with some paper-making families tomorrow."

Lin.

People from the six major papermaking families gathered together.

They jointly monopolize this industry!
"Brother Lin, what does His Majesty say?"

Huangfu Long, head of the Huangfu family, asked nervously.

Paper prices soared three times, and public grievances arose everywhere. The Huangfu family and others were a little worried that they did not have the background of the Lin family.

Lin Kaiji took a sip of tea and said lightly: "Everyone, although Your Majesty is a king, we have the final say in our business since ancient times!"

"Four years ago, His Majesty regressed, and now His Majesty can only regress!"

"The old man gave His Majesty three days. Within three days, the paper tax will drop to 5.00%, and the paper price will drop. Otherwise, we will double the paper price!"

The Patriarch of the Tao Family laughed and said, "Brother Lin is right, this business is what we say!"

"If you want me to say, let's reduce the paper tax to zero at once, haha!"

Lin Kaiji said domineeringly: "If Your Majesty has not lowered the paper tax within ten days, we will reduce the paper tax to zero!"

"it is good!"

"Brother Lin is domineering!"

"Let's advance and retreat together!"

Everyone opened their mouths.

During the time of the old emperor, they didn't dare to do this, and the old emperor was strong and ruthless!

Now they just think that Luo Hongyan is easy to bully!

Four years ago, Luo Hongyan was forced to reduce the paper tax by half, and she was still not satisfied. She still wanted Luo Hongyan to lower the paper tax again!
Gradually, night fell.

Ye Chen and Luo Hongyan finished dinner together.

Luo Hongyan was a little nervous.

In her heart, she had allowed Ye Chen to go further, but she didn't know what Ye Chen wanted to do.

Lying on the bed, Ye Chen skillfully hugged Luo Hongyan, and put his hands on Luo Hongyan's waist.

Then Ye Chen stopped moving.

He had no idea that Luo Hongyan had relaxed her request in her heart!

After one night, Ye Chen was honest.

In his opinion, being able to sleep with Luo Hongyan in his arms like this is already very satisfying, and he dare not think about more now!
"The opportunity is given to you, but you are not sure!"

"I won't give you another chance."

Luo Hongyan glanced at Ye Chen, who was sleeping soundly, and muttered in her heart.

If Ye Chen knew what Luo Hongyan was thinking, he might hit the wall with regrets, how could he know this!

Two hours passed.

Luo Hongyan returned to Zilong Palace with an angry face.

Ye Chen is currently lying leisurely in the backyard of Zilong Palace basking in the sun, he has the body of the sun god, so it is good to bask in the sun more!
"Ye Chen, you feel comfortable!"

"The heads of the six major paper-making families jointly made an appointment to meet with me, and you will go talk to them later!"

Luo Hongyan snorted, she realized that she, the emperor, was not as comfortable as Ye Chen!

"Fairy, here it is!"

Ye Chen picked up a piece of paper next to the deck chair and gave it to Luo Hongyan.

There are words on it.

"Death and life are bound together. Talk to Zicheng. Hold your hand and grow old with your son."

Luo Hongyan read silently, and the anger aroused in the court gradually calmed down.

"The poem is good."

Luo Hongyan commented lightly.

There was something touching in her heart, but she didn't want Ye Chen to see it.

Ye Chen smiled lightly and said, "Hongyan, I wrote the poem casually, that's not the point."

"The point is the paper in your hand!"

Luo Hongyan's attention instantly focused on the paper, which was pure white without any yellowing.

She turned it on the back, and the ink didn't go through.

Ye Chen pointed to the side: "A quarter of an hour ago, the Royal Paper Workshop secretly sent these papers over."

Luo Hongyan looked at the stack of papers next to her.

It is estimated that there are dozens of them.

The quality of each piece of paper is very good, much higher than that produced by the Lin family and others!
"What is the cost?"

Luo Hongyan asked quickly.

Ye Chen smiled slightly: "The cost of using the formation method is higher, but it should be only half of the Lin family's cost price!"

Luo Hongyan let out a long breath of relief.

As far as the quality of the paper is concerned, it is absolutely competitive even with the cost of the Lin family!

Nangong Ning arrived near Ye Chen and the others.

"Your Majesty, the head of the Lin family is here."

Luo Hongyan said indifferently: "Let them go to the front hall, I will talk to them later!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Nangong retreated.

Luo Hongyan looked at Ye Chen and said, "Ye Chen, I didn't joke with you, it's not a political matter if you talk to them."

"Row."

Ye Chen nodded in agreement, Lin Kaiji was very upset when he was rude to Luo Hongyan yesterday!

People from the six great families came here together today!
How can you bully your own wife like this?
After letting Lin Kaiji and the others dry for about ten minutes, Luo Hongyan and Ye Chen entered the front hall together.

"See Your Majesty, see the Empress!"

Lin Kaiji saluted them.

They still need to do superficial articles, otherwise it will be disrespectful!

Luo Hongyan said indifferently: "Everyone is welcome."

"Give a seat!"

Lin Kaiji took the lead and sat down on the ground, and the other patriarchs also looked very indifferent. They were determined to eat Luo Hongyan.

In the early morning, there are many people who speak for them!

Few of them are in the court, but their influence above the court is not low!

Luo Hongyan said lightly: "Everyone, the matter of the paper tax will be discussed by the Empress with you!"

Lin Kaiji and the others looked at Ye Chen with contempt in their eyes.

Luo Hongyan is the emperor, they have to give three points no matter what they do, Ye Chen is nothing in their eyes.

Even if Ye Chen became the empress, in their eyes, he was just a low-born mud leg.

Several of their great families have been nobles for tens of thousands of years!
Ye Chen smiled slightly and said: "Patriarchs, why not tell you clearly that the Royal Paper Mill has a new papermaking technique, and the cost of papermaking is much lower than your current cost!"

"The quality of the paper is no lower than yours!"

Luo Hongyan looked at Ye Chen in surprise.

Ye Chen actually said that!
Lin Kaiji sneered and said, "Empress, your joke is not funny at all!"

Lin Kaiji didn't believe a word of what Ye Chen said!

They are very clear about the situation of the Royal Paper Mill, and the technology in this area is much behind them!
From Lin Kaiji's point of view, the reason why Luo Hongyan didn't speak and let Ye Chen speak was because Jun had no jokes.

It's inconvenient for Luo Hongyan to lie!

Ye Chen calmly said: "Patriarch Lin, I didn't joke with you, the Royal Paper Mill has indeed made a great breakthrough!"

"If you let the price of paper drop, the tax on paper can continue to be ten to one, and the Royal Paper Mill will also control the production to ensure that you have a lot of profit!"

Lin Kaiji sneered: "Empress, do you think we are three-year-olds?"

"It's still the same sentence, within three days... no, now there are only two days left!"

"If the paper tax is not reduced to [-] tax in two days, the price of paper is estimated to be doubled on the current basis the day after tomorrow!"
