Li Shimin

Chapter 240 Where did all my money go?
Li Xuan said that he was wandering around, but it was really not an excuse.

His Lijiazhuang can be regarded as all on the right track this time.

Usually, his favorite chicken, duck, pig, fish, and various vegetables have all been planted.

He also raises a cute dumpling, so when the old man is away, he can let himself do all kinds of masturbation!
Under his command, there are also a large group of craftsmen and farmers, who provide for their own needs.

The only pity is that his other courtyard has not been built yet, and there is no mother-in-law who belongs to him at home, so he can share happiness with him every day and enjoy the wind and moon together!

Now, his only motivation is to speed up as much as possible so that these craftsmen can build him another courtyard more quickly and with less effort.

Every day, he would inspect the construction site, use his later generations' perspective to find out where he can help, and then ask.

At the beginning, some craftsmen and people were still apprehensive towards Li Xuan's attitude.

After all, how could His Royal Highness King Jin do such a despicable thing.

However, after discovering that His Royal Highness King Jin was more professional than them in some respects, he immediately adored him, and gradually began to get used to Li Xuan's daily negligence.

After inspecting the entire Lijiazhuang, Li Xuan returned to the house.

On the other hand, Li Shimin dragged Li Chengqian and others to the open space outside the warehouse, and then, as Li Xuan said, he found a big rock and then a long wooden stick.

Hesitate, though, that there is no vat full of concrete.

Therefore, Cheng Zhijie sat directly at the shorter end.

Under Li Shimin's persecution, Li Chengqian pressed down on the longest end, and when he exerted more force, he saw Cheng Zhijie gradually leave the ground with the wooden stick!

"how can that be?"

Sitting in the air, Cheng Zhijie had a look of disbelief.

However, Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji on the side seemed to be thinking of something, and their faces were thoughtful.

"Gao Ming, get down!"

Seeing this, Li Shimin's eyes flashed, and he shouted at Li Chengqian, and when Li Chengqian went down, he pressed down with one hand.

At the other end, Cheng Zhijie was lifted up again.

"Your Majesty, how similar is this thing to a stone pestle?"

At this moment, Fang Xuanling finally remembered, and said to Li Shimin with a strange face.

Forehead!
Hearing this, Li Shimin and Cheng Zhijie froze immediately.

On the side, Li Xiaogong couldn't help but chuckled and said: "This thing is somewhat similar to a catapult!"

Li Shimin and Cheng Zhijie: "..."

Seeing this, Li Xiaogong, Fang Xuanling and others did not continue to speak.

After Li Shimin and Cheng Zhijie came down, Li Chengqian and Cheng Chusi hurried up and silently put the wooden stick and the big stone back to their original positions.

Afterwards, the group returned to Li Xuan's hut.

"Hey, why does Your Majesty have such an expression?"

Seeing Li Shimin's unhappy expression, Li Xuan was puzzled.

"Why didn't Xuan Ba ​​say that the principle of leverage is the catapult and stone pestle?"

After hearing this, Li Shimin's face was full of resentment.

"Hey……"

On the side, Li Yuan who was sitting on the sofa couldn't help but sneered.

This time, Li Shimin's face turned even darker.

Seeing this, Li Xuan was also taken aback, chuckled, and quickly changed the subject.

"Your Majesty, what are you doing here today?"

"Ok?"

Hearing this, Li Shimin was taken aback, and quickly said: "I almost forgot the business!"

"Xuan Ba, I have already started selling refined salt in Chang'an City!"

"Your Majesty sells it himself?"

Li Xuan was taken aback, staring at Li Shimin to confirm.

"naturally!"

Li Shimin nodded with a natural expression on his face, "Since I can cook such delicate refined salt, I naturally have to sell it myself!"

"I don't know what your Majesty's price is?" Li Xuan asked.

"Ten coins per catty!" Li Shimin said.

"Your Majesty is merciful!"

Li Xuan praised.

In the past, the best Qinghai salt in Datang was [-] cents a catty.

Ok?
Suddenly, Li Xuan thought of something, and looked at Li Shimin with a strange expression.

"Your Majesty, were those Qinghai salts sold by the aristocratic family?"

"Most of them belong to the aristocratic family, and there is some salt, which is produced and sold by the salt people!" Li Shimin said.

"I see!"

After listening, Li Xuan completely understood.

"Xuan Ba, this refined salt is a formula provided by you, and you will get a portion of the money sold for the refined salt!"

As Li Shimin said, his face became slightly hot.

To be honest, the money earned by these refined salts is not too much for Li Xuan and Wu Cheng.

However, the inner library is too short of money now.

However, according to past experience, if it exceeds [-]%, Li Xuan will definitely not accept it.Therefore, Li Shimin can only share [-]% according to the rules.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Li Xuan nodded slowly, but did not refuse.

Because, he found that during this period of time, his money could not keep up with his spending.

However, according to the method he provided, one catty of refined salt can be boiled for at most two pennies, and a catty of salt plus one penny for shop fees and labor can earn seven pennies.

Tsk tsk, selling salt is really a huge profit.

Li Xuan couldn't help but be filled with emotion.

Regarding Li Xuan's thoughts, Li Shimin and others did not know.

He came to Lijiazhuang mainly to tell Li Xuan about this matter and see Li Xuan's reaction.

Since Li Xuan was very satisfied, Li Shimin felt relieved.

Moreover, there was an unexpected harvest, a ledger he had never seen before, better than any ledger he had ever seen.In addition, there is also a god-given crane that can easily lift heavy loads.

Satisfied, he hurriedly took Cheng Zhijie and others with him to leave.

After all, it was hard for all of them to face the indifferent old man.

"Gao Ming, how much has my master spent to build the other courtyard?"

After Li Shimin and others left, Li Xuan asked.

"Returning to Master, not counting today's money, it took a total of [-] guan!"

Li Chengqian said quickly.

"Where did all the money in the master's side room go?"

Hearing this, Li Xuan was stunned.

He remembered that there were [-] to [-] coins hoarded in the room on the inner side of the courtyard. Why did he only have four boxes of money left when he went to watch yesterday?
"Returning to Master, you gave a reward to Xuanzhao's servant and Hejian County King, and you spent a box of money, about four hundred guan!"

"Master, you spent more than 1000 guan to buy the land!"

"You spent more than 100 guan to build the hog circle!"

"Chicken rings, more than 100 guan!"

"Duck ring, more than 100 guan!"

"Paddy field, more than 50 guan!"

"..."

After listening to it, Li Xuan calculated carefully, and it was only more than 2000 guan, so he couldn't help but frowned again.

"anything else?"

Li Chengqian:  …

Cheng Chusi...

Everyone was dumbfounded.

"Master, you went to Dengzhou and brought more than 400 guan!" Li Chengqian's eyes lit up and he continued.

"That's too bad!"

Li Xuan still frowned.

On the side, Li Baoding seemed to think of something, and glanced at Li Xuan with some hesitation.

"Speak up!"

"Master, this matter seems to be related to the housekeeper!"

Li Baoding said cautiously.

"housekeeper?"

Li Xuan asked slowly.

"Exactly!"

Li Baoding nodded hurriedly, "I remember that a few days ago, the housekeeper seemed to bring the guards in the mansion to the other courtyard to carry the box containing money!"

"Go and call the butler!"

Li Xuan couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in his heart. The whole house of money was the reason why he dared to spend so much every day.

"Yes!"

Li Baoding ran out quickly.

After a while, the butler Li Chang stood in front of Li Xuan.

"I don't know why the king called the villain?"
