Chapter 60 Chen Yue posted a message seeking advice on two questions for a fee.
Tang Guojun's excitement at buying so many of Chen's mountain products in one go was palpable. In the past, his family and his relatives would have racked their brains to snatch Chen's goods, and it would have been impossible for them to buy them all at once.
He could even imagine the reactions of people when these things reappeared on the market.
After the transaction was completed, Tang Guojun did not stay any longer. Before leaving, he gave Chen Yue a black card from Rongyun Auction House.
"Xiao Yue, it's our first meeting, and I haven't prepared any gifts. Please accept this card. In the future, wherever Rongyun Auction House is located in the country, you can participate directly."
Furthermore, at any Rongyunzhai store, you are also a VIP, enjoying a 20% discount on all purchases. You are Rongyun Group's most valued customer.
Chen Yue glanced at his grandfather, and seeing him nod, he accepted the gift with both hands.
"Thank you, Uncle Tang."
Rongyunzhai is an antique company under the Rongyun Group. They have stores in almost every major antique street across the country. In addition to selling antiques, they also sell many exquisite modern handicrafts, making them a leader in the industry.
He figured he might need it someday, so he didn't hesitate and happily accepted it.
"Old Chen, your family must have struck it rich again. Xiao Yue is really capable; he's found another great treasure outside."
As soon as Tang Guojun's car left, the neighbors went into the shop and started talking about it with envy on their faces.
Chen Yue wasn't good at handling this situation, so he left it to the old man. He went back to his bedroom and played two rounds of the game.
He didn't know how much savings the old man had, but he earned so much on his first trip, which showed that the old man must have accumulated a lot of wealth over the past 20 years.
No wonder he could easily give me millions to start a business like it was nothing, and he didn't care at all even when he lost it all.
That evening, Chen Yue personally cooked a table of fine wine and dishes, and the grandfather and grandson ate and drank in the courtyard.
"Grandpa, I have a question for you. The carriages in the Tang Dynasty were too slow, and we only had ten days each time we went. Does that mean our activities were limited to a small area? You told me before that you also went to the Western Regions. What exactly happened?"
During his trip to the Tang Dynasty, Chen Yue also discovered some problems.
Chen Shan took a sip of wine with a satisfied smile and looked at him.
"I can't tell you that, but our time portal will change depending on the amount of startup capital. 1000 is a threshold. Once you go there a few more times and accumulate 1000 by completing tasks, you'll understand."
"1000? Okay."
Chen Yue had asked him about the universal card before, and the old man had given him the same answer. It wasn't that he didn't want to talk about it, but that he couldn't. The old man didn't explain the specific reason, but Chen Yue knew that it must be a rule set by the Time Gate.
So he didn't press the issue further. Compared to his grandfather's time when he started with 10 yuan, he already had a significant head start. Now his starting capital has increased to 300 yuan. Although he doesn't know the exact pattern, he thinks he can reach this goal in at most six months.
He wanted to see what changes would occur to the door after the initial investment of 1000.
After dinner, the old man went to bed at nine o'clock sharp, just like Chen Yue would have been resting at that time in the Tang Dynasty, but back in modern times, it was still very early.
After taking a shower, Chen Yue turned on the air conditioner and lay on the bed playing on his phone.
Before returning, Li Chengqian asked him two questions, which Chen Yue promised to answer next time he went back. These questions concerned the hidden mission of the Tang Dynasty through the Time-Space Gate, so he could not be careless.
This is the prime time for Douyin live streaming. Because he had previously searched for a lot of information about the Tang Dynasty, many of the videos he was seeing now were related to it.
Chen Yue typed "history bloggers" into the search bar above and then browsed through them one by one.
The live streaming industry is booming, and almost every imaginable sector has been explored to its fullest extent. Popular science history is one such subcategory.
After all, if you don't have any real skills, you'll definitely get scolded for talking nonsense.
These bloggers vary in their approach, some discussing history in a serious manner, while others use humor and wit.
Some were talking about the Qin and Han dynasties, some about the Song dynasty, some about the Ming dynasty, and some about the Tang dynasty.
Chen Yue listened for a while and felt that none of them were very good.
After watching for an hour or two with little to show for it, Chen Yue posted directly on three platforms: historical forums, Baidu Tieba, and Douyin.
[Paid Consultation: Two Questions about the Tang Dynasty]
"Question 1: If Li Chengqian suddenly repented around the fifteenth year of Zhenguan and was determined to turn over a new leaf and become a good emperor, and Hou Junji asked him to form a team, how should Li Chengqian properly handle the situation? Let's start with how Hou Junji turned his life around after being imprisoned for the conquest of Gaochang."
"Question 2: At the end of the fourteenth year of Zhenguan, Princess Wencheng was about to enter Tibet. However, as we all know, due to the issue of the dowry given by Li Shimin, Tibet quickly grew stronger and dealt a great blow to the Tang Dynasty during the reign of Emperor Gaozong 30 years later. If history could be changed, how should the dowry be changed? It is necessary to take into account the historical situation at that time."
"Note! I need very detailed answers to the above two questions, with evidence, logical coherence, and proof that they were feasible in that era."
If you satisfy me, ten thousand yuan per question! I will not go back on my word!
Chen Yue uses the same ID all the time.
"What's going on, OP? Preparing for time travel? (laughing and crying)"
"Give me back 10,000 yuan? I've seen plenty of scammers like you. You can't even afford a decent meal."
His post quickly received responses, but they were mostly sarcastic and disbelief that he would actually receive money; there were almost no serious replies.
Chen Yue glanced at the crowd and felt that what everyone said made some sense. These days, there are still people online impersonating Qin Shi Huang. The fact that he offered 10,000 yuan right off the bat made his credibility very low.
"I need to think of a way to get more people to know about my posts."
Just then, his Douyin notification indicated that a blogger named "Historical Encyclopedia" had started broadcasting.
"Got it!"
Upon seeing this, Chen Yue immediately had an idea. This blogger was one of the top bloggers on the Douyin platform, with 982 million followers. It wouldn't be a problem to call him a blogger with tens of millions of followers.
He looked to be in his forties, and his profile stated that he was a "PhD in History from Peking University." His livestreaming style was lively and interesting, and he was good at telling history in the form of storytelling.
It is not only insightful, but also not boring at all, and it is relatively objective, with virtually no personal bias, so it is very popular.
Each time he goes live, the number of viewers in the live stream is around 50,000. He usually goes live late at night, and those who watch his live streams are mostly history enthusiasts.
Chen Yue had previously seen that blogger who said there were problems with Princess Wencheng's dowry; he was the one.
Upon entering the live broadcast room, Bai Xiaosheng was still dressed in a retro-style black jacket, holding a folding fan, with a tea set in front of him. He drank tea while talking about history with everyone.
Today's live stream title is "On the Value of the Prophecy of the Golden Knife".
With the help of filters, he looked fair-skinned and clean-cut, wearing glasses, and he really did look like a scholar.
