The first free king of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 141

"Father, is it here?"

At the entrance of the village, Li Chongyi, who was riding a tall horse, looked suspiciously. He didn't expect Brother Fan to live in a village on the other side of the city...

Li Xiaogong glanced at it, and replied softly: "It's here, the address left by the person who delivered the wine last time should be correct."

Today's Li Xiaogong has introverted tiger eyes, and a black and gold brocade robe sets off Li Xiaogong's broad arms showing majesty.

This can be regarded as directly revealing his status as a prince, Zhuo is extraordinary!

Looking around from behind, there is a whole guard of honor, with soldiers carrying salutes and cavalry guarding them, majestic and majestic.

As for why there is such a big battle, apart from some of the royal family's paying attention to the apprenticeship ceremony, only Li Xiaogong himself knows the rest...

When the team first arrived at the head of the village, the old man who often sat there basking in the sun at the head of the village trembled.

Good guy!
Where did this gentleman come from?

I have never seen such a big battle appear in the village!
Is there going to be a war?

The accompanying guard dismounted himself and walked to the old man.

The guard tried his best to smile and asked: "Master, can you tell me where Tang Sufan's family lives?"

"Ah...Tang...Tang Sufan..."

The old man repeated it with his trembling lips before he regained his composure, and then hurriedly pointed in the direction before he had time to think.

After a while, the guard understood and bowed and left.

Then the entire guard of honor marched into Jinghe Village...

This made the old man at the entrance of the village feel a little shivering down his spine, why did the person who came to find this kid like Xiaofan become more and more powerful!
This is obviously a top official and noble!
No, old man, I have to find another place to bask in the sun.

It will be no fun if you offend any noble person who greets and sends you off in the future.

But having said that, this old Tang knows that his boy is so powerful now, so he must be very happy...

No one knows what the old man is thinking.

But Li Xiaogong and his son were riding tall horses, looking for the direction in the village...

"Gourd baby gourd baby~seven flowers on a vine~not afraid of wind and rain, la la la la~"

"Two tigers run fast..."

"It's my time to dance! You go away!"

"Small ball, kick with your feet, Malan Blossom 21, [-]..."

"Fairy, return my grandfather!"

Before passing by the open space of the old locust tree, a group of children were running and playing.

Li Xiaogong and his son naturally saw this scene, Li Xiaogong couldn't help but take a look, there are obviously a lot of children in this village, but how many adults are there?

And the children in this village seem to have novel ways of playing around...

"Father, look at the melodies and methods that those children play, I must know, it was Brother Fan who taught them!"

Li Chongyi straightened his chest and said confidently.

Li Xiaogong chuckled, looking at the smile on the child's face from the heart.

For some reason, I also began to feel that this village was different from other villages.

Could it be because of Tang Sufan?

When the entire guard of honor with banners showed their faces and passed by, the frightened children stopped immediately, and some timidly hid behind the big locust tree...

Li Xiaogong waved his hands back and ordered: "Let's go quickly, don't disturb the children..."

The father and son looked at the scenery and customs of the village, and at the same time headed towards the Tang family's courtyard.

And the other side of the village.

In front of Tang Sufan's workshop, it was very lively, full of 'swearing'~
A large crowd of people gathered together.

It seems that the first few are all dressed as merchants, and they look quite wealthy.

Many of the rest of the people looked like villagers, and there were even quite a few women with mouths.

"You paid a price for your work, and now you are still beating people! Shameless!"

"Yeah, why do you set such high wages!"

"Hmph, I heard that this workshop is only run by a brat, how can I understand such truths!"

"Yes, call your boss out!"

"Where's your boss?!"

A group of people were singing high and low, yin and yang were strange, and there were still a few people lying on the ground crying out for pain.

One of them, with a twitching complexion, was wearing a Confucian shirt, a little old man with a goatee and a sharp mouth, but he looked about 40 years old.

What are you yelling about.

And Liu Xiao's complexion was blue and red, his brows were deeply frowned, and his chest was like a suffocating gas.

At this time, Tang Sufan stood in the distance and listened for a while, then he understood the reason.

Frowning, Su Meiyu and Zhang Dabao followed behind, walking slowly.

Seeing Tang Sufan, a group of people suddenly shouted.

"Come on, this person is the owner of the Tang Family Workshop!"

"Didn't expect him to be such a small brat?"

"Where do you think he got so much money?"

"Could it be that she was spotted by a lady in the city?"

"Hmph, nothing more to do."

………………

Tang Sufan walked slowly into the crowd as if he had never heard of the accusations against these various people.

He asked Liu Xiao softly: "Liu Xiao, what's going on?"

"This group of people said that it was unfair for us to pay and receive work, and they came here to make trouble. At first, they wanted to break into it, but I put them down and stopped a few!"

Seeing Tang Sufan coming, Liu Xiao started to explain angrily.

As a fourth-rank military officer of Qianniuwei, he has never been so angry, and he is merciful when he knocks down a few.

If he hadn't been concerned about his identity, he would have drawn his sword long ago!
Tang Sufan finally understood after some explanations.

It turned out that the monthly fee given by my own workshop was much higher than that of other places, and some were even more than twice as high.

Naturally, many strong laborers were attracted to the Tang Family Workshop.

But Jinghe Village has less labor force, so naturally many villagers from Xihe Village next door came.

As a result, many people in the neighboring village wanted to come to Tang's workshop to find a job.

After all, in this day and age, the monthly income of the Tang Family Workshop is more than that of many urban workers, and it also includes food, and there are even two big steamed buns for each meal, and some meat can be seen every few days.

As a result, many people in the workshops in the neighboring village quit their jobs, leaving many shopkeepers in the workshops without strong labor.

Even the remaining workers began to complain, and began to quit working, so that the workshop could process money.

But Tang Sufan did come a lot during the time he was recruiting, but there were not many strong laborers in Jinghe Village, and more people from the neighboring village came.

But Tang Sufan felt sorry for this unlucky year, so he opened his mouth, and many people went to the charcoal workshop not far away.

Anyway, it is their own industry.

It's just that outsiders don't know it, they only know that Tangjia Workshop keeps recruiting people with high monthly money.

This naturally made the shopkeepers of some small workshops next door unhappy.

They also need to supply goods to the city. If there is no strong labor force at this time, wouldn't that cut off their source of income?

Cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents!
So several shopkeepers of the workshops in Xihe Village joined forces and dragged people over to make trouble, trying to get Tang Sufan to lower the monthly payment...

As for these women...

That's because they heard that the Tang Family Workshop obviously accepts women, but they only accept women from the village, which naturally made them unhappy.

So the aggrieved ones followed suit.

After understanding, Tang Sufan pondered slightly, turned his head slowly, looked at the leaders and said.

"You said that I paid for the work? Tell me, how did our workshop pay for the work?"
