Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 490 Li Yuan's Zen Throne
Li Shentong said that Liu Mu is the God of Wealth, and he can find money trees wherever he walks.

Li Yuan smiled and shook his head: "This is nonsense."

"Nonsense, how long has it been in Lingnan? Merchants in Lingnan dared to buy [-] dans of high-quality silk from me in Hangzhou. I am afraid that they could not buy so much in the past ten years. It is not because Lingnan is rich. The experienced workers can buy a few feet of silk for the family."

"It's true. I've seen an orchid sesame oil workshop, which earned more than 1000 yuan in just half a year. At the beginning, there were only a dozen or so craftsmen. When I left Lingnan, the workshop had already had large and small workers. There are nearly 300 people. The workshop is also several times larger than before.”

After listening to Li Yuan's speech, Li Shentong was very excited: "Brother Huang didn't know something, there was a fight on the pier last month. Orchid essential oil is nothing, there are several kinds, called rosemary essential oil, clove essential oil, especially peppermint essential oil, good Stuff. The merchants here in Jiangnan wanted to keep more goods, and when they ordered the people who moved the goods to pull a few more boxes from the warehouse, they ended up fighting."

"Because the goods are destined for Chang'an."

"Brother Huang is right, that's the reason. The merchants in Chang'an are guarding here. When they see their goods being taken away, even if the other party is willing to increase the price by [-]%, it will not work."

Li Yuan and Li Shentong laughed at the same time.

This is a good sign. The prosperity of the market represents the prosperity of the people.

After laughing for a while, Li Shentong asked again: "Brother Huang, you have been in Lingnan for many days, so Feng An can't build more workshops?"

"I know this. Many flowers, plants and trees are in the deep mountains and old forests. The cochin forest is not ordinary. There are poisonous insects, snakes and scorpions, evil beasts, miasma, etc. It is very scary. I can only go deeper. Right now, Feng An is organizing people. Plant some commonly used flowers and plants."

After listening to Li Yuan's explanation, Li Shentong expressed his understanding that it was because of the raw materials, not the lack of workshops.

Li Yuan said again: "I originally wanted to go back to Chang'an before the new year. Xiao Mu made a ten-year plan for Feng An. If you are interested, you can take the time to go to Lingnan. I don't know if you can see it. I only know that Feng An will That plan was placed in Guangzhou and heavily guarded."

"ten years?"

"En!" Li Yuan nodded: "Feng An is very confident. Ten years later, he said that Guangzhou can be called Little Chang'an."

"Hiss..." Li Shentong couldn't calm down anymore. The prosperity of Chang'an is even worse than that of Hangzhou.Right now, there are two most prosperous cities in this area, one is Hangzhou, and the other is Yangzhou City on Huainan Road.

Yangzhou has a good location, an important port on the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, the waterway connects the surrounding state capitals, and it is also an important wharf of the Grand Canal.Especially in the past two years, a large amount of materials have been transferred from north to south, and Yangzhou is different every day.

But just like this, Yangzhou government dare not say that it will be half as prosperous as Chang'an in ten years.

Li Shentong got up and was going to look for Liu Mu, but was stopped by Li Yuan: "You are too impatient. Right now, we are going to transfer goods from the north to the south and develop the industries in the east of the Yangtze River. Xiaomu left a letter from Quanzhou. The rest will wait for Chang'an." I have made a decision, you can find it later.”

Li Shentong was taken aback, not because Liu Mu left a letter in Quanzhou, but because Li Yuan said to wait for Chang'an's decision.

What is the meaning behind these words?
Li Yuan also saw Li Shentong's reaction, and said with a smile: "I'm old, it's good to travel around the mountains and rivers."

"Brother Huang!" Li Shentong didn't dare to say anything, he heard that Li Yuan already intended to abdicate.

Li Yuan only lived in Hangzhou for two days. After sending Li Yuan on board, Li Shentong said to Li Xiaogong: "You go to Fuzhou, and then lead Quanzhou. I will go south with the sea boat to Lingnan in a few days, and I want to meet Feng. ounce."

"My nephew understands. Quanzhou is just between Hangzhou and Guangzhou. If there is a real opportunity, it may become a big port."

"No or yes, yes. In the Tang Dynasty, when it comes to the art of war, whoever is number one after the King of Qin is afraid that everyone has his own strengths. The talents of essays are even more outstanding. But in terms of vision, and... money, who do you think?"

Li Xiaogong also smiled: "Little God of Wealth."

"He has a good personal relationship with him. You can write to ask about the things left in Quanzhou. I went to Feng An to make friends and prepare a high-quality tea set for me."

Liu Mu didn't know the title of Little God of Wealth yet.

This name was first called by Lingnan people. In modern terms, Lingnan has doubled Lingnan's GDP and per capita income several times in half a year.That's the thing.

Of course, among the wealth in Lingnan, there is also the blood of Jiaoren and Yueren.

However, the Xigang Company ignored these things at all, and beat Jiaoren and Yueren if they refused to accept it.As for Linyi, if it weren't for Lingnan's current internal development, it would be too late to take care of it.Otherwise, Feng An would also send troops to teach him a lesson.

Finally, Liu Mu returned to Chang'an City after leaving Chang'an for a whole year.

On the day Liu Mu returned to Chang'an City, Emperor Li Yuan of the Tang Dynasty announced the Zen throne.

Although Liu Mu, who originally planned to go home and rest for a few days, was a little surprised, he also felt that it was reasonable.

The entire city of Chang'an began to prepare for the enthronement of the new emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and Liu Mu temporarily moved into Qin Qiong's Duke Yi's mansion.

In Duke Yi's mansion, Liu Mu walked around, and even went to the kitchen twice.Qin Qiong blocked Liu Mu: "What are you looking for?"

"Banquet, banquet. There is no lively atmosphere in this mansion, there is no banquet, and there is no delicious food. Brother-in-law, why did you ask me to come over, to eat dry food?" Liu Muxin said, he was at sea, and then he ate on the boat on the canal How many days of junk food, finally back to Chang'an, there must be something delicious.

But there was obviously no intention of preparing a banquet in the kitchen.

Qin Qiong took Liu Mu back to the house, and a maid gave each of them a large bowl of belted noodles, covered with fatty meat.Then each person will have a handful of garlic and a small bottle of drink-like fruit wine.

"Brother-in-law, you are the Duke of the state, so you can eat this." Liu Mu vigorously tapped his bowl with his chopsticks.

"When eating, only beggars will knock on the bowl." Qin Qiong picked up the bowl and just ate it by himself.

Liu Mu narrowed his eyes and looked at Qin Qiong, and asked slowly: "What happened to make you so serious, brother-in-law."

"Two things." Qin Qiong put down the bowl.

Instead, Liu Mu picked up the bowl and asked while eating the noodles, "Let's talk about the important things first."

"It's all important. The first thing is to start ten years ago. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the gentry were unwilling to be officials. In the ten years since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, there were very few talented officials. The civil servants in the state capitals have never been full .”

"This, I know. I have read the relevant documents in the official department." Liu Mu continued to eat his noodles, not taking this seriously.

Qin Qiong also picked up the bowl, and continued: "A year ago, when the sage left Chang'an, it was destined that the king of Qin would ascend the throne. Half a year ago, a servant named Liu Linfu from the Ministry of Officials proposed a new plan for selecting officials."
