Datang: Begin with Li Shimin as a father

Chapter 23

The shopkeeper personally poured tea for Li Gen.

More than a dozen guys started to pack, weigh and load the car.

Li Gen pretended to look around from time to time.

In fact, I am not worried at all that they are short of weight.

After all, it's not a one-off deal.

When the shopkeeper learned that he would buy soybeans and mung beans again in a short time, he began to stutter.

When Feng Wu came back.

A dozen boys and girls followed behind.

"My lord, these people are small, carefully selected, and they all have legal contracts."

"it is good."

Li Gen nodded in satisfaction.

"Take them to fill their stomachs first. After a while, these soybeans and mung beans can't be filled."

Li Gen looked at a dozen pale and bloodless faces, and said softly to Feng Wu.

Feng Wu nodded in agreement, and led a group of teenagers and girls away.

When Feng Wu came back again, the ten carriages of soybeans were all packed.

"My lord, we have enough soybeans. The number of carriages in our shop is limited. Can you deliver these soybeans to you first, and then send mung beans when you come back?"

"Of course, we will cooperate for a long time in the future."

Li Gen smiled and nodded in agreement.

Li Gen asked those boys and girls to ride with him.

As a result, they all retreated in unison, their faces flustered.

"My lord, these people are used to suffering. You will frighten them by doing this. Let them follow the carriage."

Li Gen shook his head with a wry smile, and had to admit that what Feng Wu said was reasonable.

After arriving at the manor all the way.

It is already noon.

"Just put all the soybeans on the ground."

The corner of Feng Wu's mouth twitched when he heard this, and finally couldn't help but speak.

"My lord, if it snows, these soybeans will probably..."

"It's okay, I have my own sense of proportion!"

Hearing what Li Gen said, Feng Wu did not refute.

Ten carriages of soybeans piled up in bags like a hill.

The clerk in the shop said goodbye and left.

Two hours later, all the mung beans were delivered.

Li Gen still let them put on the ground.

Tai Chi Palace.

In the imperial study.

Li Junxian is reporting to Li Shimin about Li Gen's whereabouts today.

"Bought ten wagons of soybeans and ten wagons of mung beans?"

Li Shimin was stunned for a long time and couldn't react.

Li Shimin was very understanding and supportive of buying more than a dozen male servants and maidservants.

But, why do you buy so many soybeans and mung beans?
Even if you like to eat beans, you can't eat them like this?
Li Shimin, who likes to get to the bottom of things, naturally couldn't sit still.

The mystery is not solved, and Li Shimin feels stuck in his throat.

So, Li Shimin hit the road.

After taking off the dragon robe and putting on ordinary clothes, Li Shimin, accompanied by Li Junxian, went straight to the outside of Chang'an City.

"Gen'er, what are these things?"

After arriving at the manor.

Li Shimin looked at the pile of sacks, pretending to be confused with understanding.

"Father, these are the soybeans and mung beans that I bought today."

"Oh, why did you buy so many? Isn't it afraid of getting damp if you put it outside?"

At this time, Li Shimin sounded like a parent scolding a naughty boy.

"Father, don't you want to be angry? Isn't the child just trying to make money for Daddy?"

The corner of Li Shimin's mouth twitched.

You brat, it only took me the first day, two gold leaves and two silver ingots.

Outrageous prodigal.

It can be said that there are too many books!
"Gen'er, you want to use soybeans and mung beans to make money? How do you make money? How do you make money?"

"Could it be that Gen'er saw something again? Will the prices of these soybeans and mung beans increase in the future?"

Li Gen deeply admires Daddy Cheap's brain circuit.

In order to prevent his father from continuing to think wildly, Li Gen had to tell the truth.

"Father, it only takes three to five days for mung beans and soybeans to germinate."

"After transformation, they are no longer beans, but vegetables."

"Father, in this season, do you think beans are worth more or vegetables?"

"What's more, one catty of mung beans can produce more than six catties of vegetables."

"What's the matter?"

Li Shimin's eyes widened instantly.

"Gen'er, is what you said true?"

"Father, the boy has only you as his relative, how could he lie to you? Within five days, you will believe what the boy said is true."

Li Shimin nodded solemnly upon hearing this.

I really think too much.

This child can grow vegetables and fruits in winter.

Turn soybeans and mung beans into vegetables.

It seems really possible.

"Little Li, go back by yourself."

Hearing this, Li Junxian knew that His Majesty told him to tell the Empress that he would not return to the palace tonight.

When Li Junxian was about to take the order and leave, Li Gen spoke.

"Father, you should go back, there is no place for you to live here."

Li Gen didn't want to sleep together with his father.

Sandwiched between Hongxiu and Tianxiang, it's warm, isn't it fragrant?
Besides, there are more than a dozen newcomers suddenly today, and there is really no extra place to sleep.

"That……"

Li Shimin was so embarrassed that he didn't know how to speak.

"Father, when the bean sprouts are ready, my boy will send the bean sprouts to father's house first, so that father can try them first."

When Li Shimin heard this, he felt much better, so he asked how to make the bean sprouts delicious.

The most delicious is naturally the spicy fried bean sprouts.

Stir-fried pork with bean sprouts and the like.

However, there is not even an iron pot right now, so those can only be thought about temporarily.

"Father, it's very simple. Cook it in boiling water and eat it with sauce. It's delicious and nutritious."

Li Shimin finally left the manor with a smile.

Before leaving, he gave Feng Wu a look that could only be understood but could not be expressed in words.

Feng Wu naturally understood, this is how he learned to make bean sprouts.

After Papa Cheap left.

Li Gen began to gather all the people in the manor together.

The first conversation between master and servant began.

It's a dialogue, but Li Gen is talking alone, and everyone else is listening with their heads down.

These servants all have contracts, and Li Gen is not afraid of them running away, nor is he afraid that they will start anew in the future.

Once mung bean sprouts and soybean sprouts are sold after a certain period of time.

As far as people's wisdom and IQ are concerned, it is not difficult to study how they are transformed.

The hard part is, the first person to eat the crab.

"Now our conditions are more difficult, but I will let you all live in Chang'an City in a short time."

"To be honest, there is my restaurant in Chang'an City. Once it opens, many of you will go to the restaurant to work. Not only will you be able to eat and drink well, but you will also be paid monthly wages."

"As long as you do your best, I won't treat any of you badly."

"........."

Li Gen's words made the eyes of the boys and girls who bowed their heads and kept their heads sparkle.

Li Gen told Feng Wu to go to the market to buy some containers and tools.

When Feng Wuhui came back, it was nearly dusk.

Everyone had dinner.

Then I started to get busy.

At the west end of the manor is a river, after breaking the ice.

You can use wooden barrels to fetch water.

Soak the soybeans and mung beans in water in all wooden barrels and containers.

It's freezing outside, and if it's placed in the wild, let alone sprouts, it will definitely freeze into ice cubes.

Right now it can only be placed in the room.

Calculated in this way, it only consumed two sacks of mung beans.

Early the next morning, Li Gen got out of bed happily.

Hongxiu and Tianxiang squatted down curiously to investigate the barrel.

That graceful curve made Li Gen's nose feel hot instantly.
