Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 274 Legendary Merchant Pei Mingli

Sure enough, Li Shimin shook his head after Liu Mu finished speaking.

"It's inappropriate. Master Ling is the ancestor of my Li family. He should be crowned supreme and crowned emperor." Li Shimin's words are beautiful. It doesn't matter whether Lao Tzu and Li Shimin are related. The important thing is that Li Shimin himself recognized the marriage. .

What else can Liu Mu say, he can only say: "Second brother is wise."

Li Shimin believed in God, and also believed that Liu Mu was really taught by Lao Tzu, and even more believed that Lao Tzu would not mind having a descendant like him, and he was also the descendant of the emperor who created a prosperous world.

"Let's go, let's go to the cattle and horse farm. The second brother will choose some horses for himself. Speaking of which, in the past few horse races, the second brother's Qin Palace has not even won the first place. This is very displeasing."

"Second brother, the sage sent someone to pick them once, and took away more than 20 horses."

"Choosing the horse depends on the eyes." Li Shimin was very confident.

Liu Mu may pick computers, but he will definitely not pick horses. In Liu Mu's eyes, all these horses are almost the same.So when Li Shimin went to pick the horse, Liu Mu just stood and watched from a distance.

At this time, a group of half-grown children came outside the cattle and horse farm.

The guards outside the door were chasing the children away, and Liu Mu walked over after seeing them.

"Lang Jun." The guard outside the door saluted Lang Jun, and Liu Mu asked, "What's the matter?"

"They came from Jindi, and the leader of the children said that they would clean up the cow and horse manure here for free."

"Bring it here." After Liu Mu ordered, the young man who was the leader was brought over. He was thin and looked about fifteen or sixteen years old.Liu Mu asked, "What do you want to clean up the dung from cows and horses?"

"I don't want anything, and I'm also responsible for pulling away and disposing of the cleaned up dirt." The child responded loudly.

Liu Mu smiled lightly: "Come here, give them two pancakes each, and no one is allowed to approach the cattle and horse farm." After Liu Mu gave the order, he turned around and walked back.The young man rushed forward a few steps: "We work hard, and we only need some cow and horse dung."

Liu Mu stopped walking: "Well, this sentence is still decent. However, you can't give you cow and horse manure. And there are people who work here to clean up cow and horse manure, so you still have no work to do here."

"Why did you leave as soon as you heard that you were working for free?" The young man even performed a scribe ceremony.

Liu Mu turned back and said, "There is nothing free in this world. Any kind of free is a temptation, and you may lose more. You know how much these cow and horse dung are worth. I can't spend much money to find a few workers. , but the cow and horse dung is a hundred times the salary."

"You, you actually know the mystery of Bingzhou Tuntian." The boy exclaimed.

Liu Mu was very surprised: "I know it's not surprising, I designed it. It's you who knew that, which surprised me. How about this, arrange a job for you to do, if you want to do it, you can stay for a few days , the wages are quite a lot.”

"Thank you, I don't want to do it later." The boy was about to turn around as soon as he cupped his hands.

Liu Mu asked at this time: "Let me ask you, how many business opportunities have you found at the Jinghe Wharf?"

"Business opportunity?" The young man was puzzled.

"It's a chance to get you several times the profit." After Liu Mu explained, the young man said, "This cow and horse dung is the first. It's a pity that I don't know how to compost it, but I can get about ten times the profit just by using this dung."

"Fine, go on."

"The second business opportunity I found was to exchange money. Many people are unwilling to queue for a long time. I will first divide the money into excellent, good, and medium grades, and then arrange them neatly for inspection by the bank. The profit is about [-]. Five of them, the quantity is huge and the profits are huge. But I have no capital to exchange for money.”

"Very good, let's continue." Liu Mu became interested.

"The third is the biggest profit, but also the most risky. It is possible to lose extremely badly, and it is even more likely to be killed. It is to open a betting shop privately."

Liu Mu clapped his hands: "It's really good, is there any more?"

"The last thing is to pick up paper bags. Put the paper bags of all kinds of food at Jingyang Wharf, and then go to the south of the city to open a small shop. The food in Jingyang is more expensive than in Chang'an City, but there are countless people rushing to buy it."

Liu Mu laughed and asked, "What's your name?"

"My surname is Pei, and my name is Mingli. Although my family has fallen, I have also studied." Pei Mingli also replied loudly.

Liu Mu was taken aback for a moment, but he had heard this name before. The Tattered King in the early Tang Dynasty was also a legendary businessman.Some people in later generations regarded his method of clearing the rubble of abandoned land as a classic in business.

But Liu Mu looked down on the ignorant labor of opportunistically defrauding kind people.

Profits and speculators.

Liu Mu's face changed, and he became very serious: "Your books have been read into the stomach of a dog. A person like you may achieve everything in the future, but he is still a person without virtue. But then again, Being successful and rich will cover up your unscrupulousness, and you will also be sought after by the world. That’s all, you go.”

Liu Mu turned around and left, he didn't want to deal with such a person.

Moreover, Liu Mu believed that with him in Datang, Pei Lili would have no chance to become a senior official at the level of minister of the Six Departments.

After Liu Mu left, Pei Mingli handed over all the coins and valuables on his body to his little friends, then dismissed these little friends, and stood alone outside the gate of the cattle and horse farm.

Until late at night, Li Er picked out fifteen good horses that he liked and prepared to leave.

Pei Mingli was still standing outside the cattle and horse farm gate.

Li Shimin asked Liu Mu: "Who is this?"

"A stubborn stone, but there is beautiful jade inside." When Liu Mu said this, he did not avoid Pei Mingli.

Li Shimin looked at Pei Mingli and then looked at Liu Mu: "You are only eighteen, and this son looks to be sixteen, but you have an old-fashioned attitude. It's strange."

Liu Mu didn't answer, but just waved at Pei Mingli to signal him to follow.

Li Shimin waved his hand: "Wait a minute, I ask you, why are you not convinced?"

Claiming to be the king, Pei Mingli did not dare not answer in this capacity. He immediately stepped forward to salute and said: "I am convinced, but I am not convinced. I am convinced because the wisdom of this gentleman is far beyond my comparison. If I am not convinced, it is the horse race." It's the same trap, but they say my trap is immoral."

"Why is it a trap?" Li Shimin asked.

Pei Mingli said: "I came here during the first race, and there was money to raise horses in that race, but from the second race onwards, all the wealthy families sent good horses to compete, and they also had to charge temporary stables and fodder money. .The return on betting is not high, where the money earned from each horse race is calculated by car.”

Li Shimin smiled, turned around and asked Liu Mu: "You don't want to explain."

"Why do I have to explain, and no one really understands the deep meaning after explaining it. What's more, I never said that I am a good person." Li Shimin was speechless with Liu Mu's rascal appearance.
