Datang: Acting as a celestial mystery at the beginning

Du Ruhui's voice came very suddenly, and the decibels he yelled were also very high, which startled Li Shimin and the others.

"Keming, is it the Champa rice seeds that are wrong, or the Southwest's measures?"

Li Shimin asked nervously, for fear that something might have gone wrong.

"neither!"

Du Ruhui picked up the piece of paper on which Li Yi'an wrote the article, and said in surprise: "Look, Your Majesty, this kind of paper is much harder than the one we use. It is not easy to erase, I have never seen such a good paper."

After that, he handed the paper to Li Shimin.

Paper can be widely used at this time, and the scope is limited to the circle of aristocratic families and wealthy businessmen. With Du Ruhui's status, he is so shocked that he has never seen any paper before.

Li Shimin picked it up hesitantly and looked at it, suddenly his eyes were fixed, these papers... are so good, it's not like he hasn't seen the best paper on the market before, compared with the one in front of him, it's nothing like mud.

"Could it be that this is the paper made by Mr. himself?"

Li Shimin murmured in his heart, but he didn't think too much, and he wasn't as surprised as Du Ruhui.

Because the better the quality of the paper, the higher the price. I am afraid this is the latest way for my husband to make money. Although it is surprising, it is nothing more than that.

Next, there was nothing else to discuss, so Li Shimin asked them to go back first.

After reading the rest of the memorial, Li Shimin read it again, then left the Ganlu Hall and returned to his bedroom.

Seeing the eldest grandson Wugou with a growing belly, a happy smile appeared on his face.

"Jiro!"

The eldest grandson Wugou pulled him in and cuddled gently beside him. They were already old couples and had several children. They were as loving as before.

However, before they had time to say something private, the door was quietly pushed open.

"Aye, Auntie!"

Li Lizhi walked in happily.

Li Shimin's heart moved, he beckoned the little girl over, and asked her what happened to her husband today.

Li Lizhi couldn't understand their competition, but she still told all the things in full. She also said it funny, which made Li Shimin and Changsun Wugou couldn't help laughing.

"It seems that sir has something new."

Li Shimin said softly: "It's been a while since I've visited my husband, I have to go when I find a chance."

-

At this moment, at Li Jing's home.

"Are you sure, you really want to join the army?"

Li Jing sat in the main hall with a serious face, looking at Li Dejian standing in front of him.

"That's right, I've figured it out. I learned a lot from my husband today, and I'm more determined to join the army."

Li Dejian nodded and said: "Even if it's Aye, how you want to punish me, I just want to join the army. This motivates me more than studying and becoming an official. It is also my dream."

His father was a famous God of War in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. As a son, Li Dejian was unwilling to be lonely.

Li Jing asked, "What did the master teach you today?"

"Sir taught us the art of war!"

Almost at the same time, in Yuchi Jingde's house, Yuchi Baolin also told her father all these things, and continued: "Sir, soldiers are cunning, winning with oddities, water has no normal state, and soldiers have no permanent shape."

"From now on, I don't want to do any harm to Chang'an anymore. I want to follow my husband honestly, and I may gain more."

Like Li Dejian, Yuchi Baolin said these words very firmly.

"That gentleman, you have some skills!"

Yuchi Jingde has never met Li Yi'an, but he feels that he can make his son, who has always been a playboy, change his temperament drastically.

To find time, you have to thank him well.

People who also have this idea, and Cheng Yaojin.

In the past, when Cheng Chumo came back, Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but pick up the ax and compete with him.

Cheng Chumo came back today, as if he had something on his mind, he was not even interested in fighting, after a question, Cheng Yaojin also learned what happened today.

"Ugh!"

Cheng Yaojin sighed: "If my husband can be born more than ten or twenty years earlier, we will go to the battlefield together to fight Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande, wouldn't it be very refreshing?"

-

Li Yi'an didn't know that he was missed by so many people today.

After sending Li Chengqian and the others away, they went to find Li Changge to be tender for a while, but the Aunt Wang who lived next door came to him at this time inappropriately.

"Sir, something serious happened!"

Aunt Wang ran in anxiously and said, "I just came back from Chang'an, and I got bad news. The Cui family sold us salt in Wannian County, which was more than three times as expensive. In addition, items such as cloth, meat, grain, and even Some vegetarian vegetables and fruits all increase in price for our Wannian County."

"Now in Wannian County, there is a saying that if you want the price to return to normal, you must be kicked out, sir, otherwise the Cui family will make Wannian County impossible to buy anything."

After hearing these words, Li Yi'an knew without thinking that it must be the revenge of the five surnames and Qiwang.

"that's it?"

Li Yi'an smiled disapprovingly: "You don't think you want to drive me out, do you?"

"No way!"

Aunt Wang immediately shook her head and said, "Mister is kind to all of us in Wannian County. Even if we don't eat salt, drink alcohol, or wear new clothes, we will definitely not drive you away."

Li Yi'an nodded and said: "Thank you for your understanding, I probably know it too, don't worry, ma'am, this situation won't last long, I will find a way to solve it."

Aunt Wang breathed a sigh of relief.

It's just that, just as he sent Aunt Wang away, he saw Fang Yucheng rushing over again.

"Sir, it's bad!"

Fang Yucheng jumped down from the carriage, and said: "Five Surnames and Seven Wangs made people boycott all the shops of our Fang family, and ordered all merchants in Chang'an, even ordinary people, not to cooperate with the Fang family and not to get the Fang family's shops. People who are related to Mr. can’t buy anything in Chang’an. No matter how much money they have, Ma Zhou almost has nothing to eat and can only come to me. In addition, I also heard from Ma Zhou that Even when the imperial court wants to buy things outside, the prices are deliberately raised by them, and they are more than three times more expensive than before."

"That's all there is to their means."

Li Yi'an didn't seem to take these things to heart.

"Aren't you worried, sir? They are already very powerful like this. What should we do?"

Fang Yucheng is very anxious. Their Fang family's business has been boycotted, and with their current strength, they can support it for a month or two. However, this kind of boycott cannot end in a month or two, but will continue like this.

Five Surnames and Seven Wangs can make an ordinary merchant like him perish, even if His Majesty is behind him.

"Why do you think the aristocratic family can make everyone afraid of them with one word, and then control all the goods in the world, so that people dare not buy Fang's things, and dare not sell them to us?"

Li Yian asked him back.

"Because the family is powerful and powerful."

Fang Yucheng said.

"This is just one of them. Behind us is the imperial court. In fact, we have power, so there is a second!"

Li Yi'an analyzed and said: "That is a monopoly!"

"The aristocratic family has mastered most of the merchants, such as salt, wine, cloth and other daily necessities, and almost all the necessities of the people are in their hands. Coupled with the support of power and influence, the people dare not buy their things. How dare you disobey their orders?"

"Simply put, it is to hold the lifeline of the economy."
