The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 900 The Character of a Merchant
"That is to say, in the future, anyone who has money can live in Daozhengfang?" Fang Yiai said.

"Yes." Xuan Shijing nodded.

"Yi." Fang Yiai shook his head: "This is not good, do you think people with status in the court, who would lower their status and mix with some merchants?"

"I don't want to pay for a place where I want to have a status. Where can there be such a good thing? If a businessman pays [-] guan, and an official pays [-] guan, I will definitely sell the house to some merchant instead of those A self-righteous official." Xuan Shijing said: "This is called talking about business in business, I really don't know where those big men in the court have a sense of superiority."

"You are such a sinner." Fang Yiai reminded.

"The sinner? I've said it all. If you buy and sell what you want, can you buy and sell by force? Moreover, the Hou Mansion doesn't need to curry favor with anyone." Xuan Shijing said.

There is nothing wrong with Xuan Shijing's words, now everyone knows that Dongshan Houfu is in the same situation as Changsun Wuji and his son, except for some big men in the court who don't care, who would dare to get too close to Dongshanhoufu?For those who are new to the imperial court, it is Changsun Wuji, not Xuan Shijing, who can influence their official career.

We all know that Dongshan Hou Xuan Shijing is an "idleman" in the court, and to make friends with him, it is better to spend some effort to follow the path of Changsun Wuji, at least he is now the Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

Xuan Shijing didn't need to curry favor with those officials, so naturally he would not be polite to them. After the Liaodong incident ended, more officials and gentry settled in Chang'an City. Now Chang'an City, where are there other vacant houses? If it can be sold to them, some houses around the palace are under the name of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. If His Majesty Li Er doesn't open his mouth, those houses will have to be empty all the time, and these gentry in Chang'an City, how can they let His Majesty Li Er go to open it? This Chrysostom.

Therefore, many people set their sights on Daozhengfang.

Although they have money, it is feasible to buy a piece of land in Chang'an City to build their own houses, but they can only buy the houses of ordinary people in the city, and then tear them down and rebuild them. Neither merchants nor officials look down on this place where ordinary people live. From this point of view, Daozhengfang is close to Dongshi, and the Guozijian is just across the street, and it is also close to the scenery of Xuanwu Lake. Such a place is very suitable for the wishes of these rich people who want to settle in Chang'an.

As long as there is enough publicity on Qiandui before the official sale of the house in Daozhengfang, it will not be difficult for the houses there to sell at a high price.

Whether it is Qiandui or Xuan Shijing, they all have a heart that is too plucking.

The Engineering College was the first to be completed in Daozhengfang. The craftsmen there are not generally enthusiastic about the Engineering College. They all know that this Engineering College is their future hope. They have nothing to do with each other, so the construction of the house is naturally slower than that of the engineering school.

But what made Xuan Shijing very gratified was that after returning to Chang'an, he had to know that the No. [-] house in Zhengfang had been completed, and the rest was the interior decoration. When I came back, I arranged it myself, so although the No. [-] house was built, it was still an empty shell.

Around June this year, the Engineering College will also be completed, and by the beginning of next year, the house at Daozhengfang will be sold.

"I forgot. There is also an engineering college in Daozhengfang. What are you going to do with the engineering college? It is because of this engineering college that Changsun Wuji has his eye on you. Now you and the eldest grandson's family are in such a mess. "Fang Yi'ai of this Engineering College also broke his heart for Xuan Shijing, but there is no way, now he is also a member of the Shenhou Mansion, and he is tied to the same boat with Xuan Shijing, and Dongshan County will really become a place in the future." With Xuan Shijing's appearance like what he said, the relationship between him and the Dongshan Hou's Mansion has become even closer.

This is not the case in Chang'an City. Interest groups bind many people together, and Xuan Shijing and Fang's family are no exception.

"I have already entrusted the engineering college to the king of Wei. If Changsun Wuji still wants to use some tricks, let him go to Li Tai and see if His Majesty Li Er will still indulge Changsun Wuji like this." Xuan Shi Jing laughed and said: "Isn't the eldest grandson's family a cow? Let Changsun Wuji go with the royal family."

"You are insidious. If it is true, the empress will come forward to warn Changsun Wuji before His Majesty says anything," Fang Yiai said.

It is for this reason, why is Empress Changsun called "a generation of virtuous queens"?Because she dared to give up and was able to give up.

Empress Changsun once told His Majesty Li Er that he rewarded Changsun Wuji too generously, and asked His Majesty Li Er not to give Changsun Wuji such a generous official position.

This is my brother.

Perhaps it was also Empress Changsun who saw that Changsun Wuji was too utilitarian. The brother and sister both came from troubled times and saw too many things, which led to Changsun Wuji's pursuit of rights and interests.

If Changsun Wuji snatched something from Li Tai, Empress Changsun would blow her hair up if she found out.

"Li Tai's name is a protective umbrella for the engineering college. With Li Tai in charge, the censors in the court dare not make trouble. After all, Li Tai is a prince, and he is a prince, not a prince, so many things, his name The head is good but the crown prince’s name is not good." Xuan Shijing said: "The matter of the Engineering College has been finalized, and Daozhengfang is also waiting to be finished, and there is money everywhere."

The Institute of Engineering is a place where Xuan Shijing can turn productivity into money, not only can it be turned into money, perhaps it will be a good thing for the entire Tang Dynasty, even if it is to post money to pay for it, Xuan Shijing is willing.

In one's life, one must always do one or several things, be worthy of one's heart, be worthy of the heaven and earth, and be worthy of the ruler, ministers and parents.

His Majesty Li Er is kind to Xuan Shijing, Xuan Shijing knows, and the Academy of Engineering is the first big gift Xuan Shijing gave to His Majesty Li Er.

His Majesty Li Er is a hero who can expand the territory, but because of various things in the Tang Dynasty, he was hindered and his ambition was trapped. The appearance of the Engineering College may greatly ease this constraint , so that Datang's unprecedented national strength will go one step further.

Li Tai is the son of His Majesty Li Er and the younger brother of the prince. Although the Tian family is ruthless, when His Majesty Li Er was in power, Li Tai was the supervisor of the engineering college, and the engineering college was a sharp knife in the hands of the Tian family.

The current Li Tai is not interested in the throne, and his relationship with Li Chengqian is pretty good. The standard brotherhood is respectful. When Li Chengqian comes to power in the future, Li Tai's path will be the path of a virtuous king.
