Datang: Begin with Li Shimin as a father

Chapter 29 Small Abacus

It turned out that there were indeed people with unreasonable thoughts today, and they were going to follow Li Gen.

Find a way to get the art of making bean sprouts from him.

Now seeing Cheng Chumo, Yuchi Baolin and Qin Huaidao chatting happily with this young bean sprouts seller.

They had to give up their plans.

The three of Cheng Chumo are not scary.

What's scary is the father of the three of them.

Everyone is a master of life.

After His Majesty ascended the throne, he even made the three fathers Duke of the State.

Yu Chigong is the general of Zuo Wuhou!

Cheng Yaojin and Qin Shubao are General Zuo Wuwei and General You Wuwei respectively.

The three of them have fought with Li Shimin for many years, and they have formed a deep friendship on the battlefield.

Therefore, Cheng Chumo, Yuchi Baolin and Qin Huaidao have been playing together since childhood.

Needless to say, the innocent friendship between teenagers.

With the three of Cheng Chumo maintaining order, the sale of bean sprouts was much smoother than yesterday.

Looking at the long queue behind him, the corner of Li Gen's mouth curled up.

Suddenly, a carriage appeared in Li Gen's field of vision.

The carriage was extremely luxurious, compared with the carriage I was riding in, it was heavenly and underground.

"Queen, why are Brother Chumo and Brother Baoling here? Brother Huaidao is also here!"

Princess Changle opened a gap in the car window, and kept looking around with her big eyes.

Empress Changsun also saw the three of Cheng Chumo.

She smiled and said.

"Your father really hit the mark, there really are no free bean sprouts in the world!"

What the queen mother said made Changle very puzzled.

"Mother, why does Chang Le become more and more confused the more she listens."

"Changle, you are still young, and it is difficult for the queen mother to explain many things to you."

Empress Changsun stroked Chang Le's beautiful hair, her face was full of maternal brilliance.

"Queen, is that boy the one that the emperor said about? He really discovered that beans can germinate into vegetables."

Princess Changle found Li Gen who had been looking at the carriage.

Empress Changsun followed Changle's little hand.

He looked at Li Gen from a distance.

"Mother, that young man is so kind. The strange thing is, why does my son have a feeling of déjà vu?"

Empress Changsun was slightly taken aback when she heard this, but soon returned to normal.

"Delu, go back to the palace!"

Li Delu, the chief servant, agreed.

Immediately turned the horse's head and drove the carriage straight to the palace.

More than half an hour later.

A carriage of mung bean sprouts was sold out.

Looking at the customers who did not buy in the queue behind, one by one disappointed expressions.

Feng Wu spoke loudly according to Li Gen's explanation.

"There are also bean sprouts for sale in the West Market today. If you rush there now, you may still be able to buy them."

When everyone heard the words, they left quickly.

Some people originally came from Weifang near the West Market.

Hearing Feng Wu's words, I almost regretted it.

Cheng Chumo, Yuchi Baolin and Qin Huaidao helped to load the money into the carriage.

Good guy!
The fathers of the three are all masters who are not short of money.

But the exchange of so much money for a cart of bean sprouts still shocked the three of them.

The carriage was filled with money, Li Gen clasped his fists and said.

"Three brothers, let Li Gen go back and prepare."

"It's really hard for me to swallow the food and wine in the restaurants in Chang'an City."

"Before lunch, I will send someone to pick you up. If there are people in the West Market to help maintain order, we will have a banquet together today."

After hearing Li Gen's words, Cheng Chumo immediately spoke.

"Changsun Chong, Du He and Fang Yiai went to the West Market early in the morning."

Li Gen nodded with a smile, and sure enough everything was as he expected.

Before parting, the two parties agreed that they would meet at the gate of Qixia Gate.

Because the three of Cheng Chumo said frankly that riding a carriage was too slow, it would be more enjoyable to ride a horse.

Li Gen told them to call Changsun Chong, Du He and Fang Yiai.

Then he waved goodbye, got into the carriage and left.

"Father, I'm back!"

Li Shimin, who had just taken off his dragon robe and put on regular clothes, returned to Anshanfang Mansion, and immediately came out of the room with a smile.

"Gen'er, how's your income today?"

With such a cash cow son, Li Shimin woke up laughing several times in his dreams in the middle of the night.

"Father, I didn't count the money today, because Cheng Chumo, Yuchi Baolin and Qin Huaidao went to the East Market to help maintain order."

"Can we count money in front of others? No! They are all owners of big fortunes and money, so we have to pretend to treat money like dung!"

Li Shimin was happy when he heard this.

You kid treats money like dung!
I think money is very precious!

There is no way, there are too many places where money is used in the imperial court.

Not to mention anything else, the monthly expenditure of the military alone is a huge amount.

"Father, let's count together. When we finish counting, Zhao Si and the others should be back, and we can continue counting."

"Counting money should be one of the happiest things in the world!"

Hey!
Li Shimin laughed happily.

"Gen'er's words make sense! My father also thinks that counting money is a happy thing."

Next, the father and son sat on the ground.

Start counting the money carefully.

Li Junxian and Feng Wu naturally would not stand by and watch.

After the four of them counted for a while, they calculated that it was not much different from yesterday's income, and there were also 810 pennies and three cents.

The sound of carriages sounded outside the house.

"Father, it must be Zhao Si and the others who are back."

Zhao Si also entered the mansion with a carriage full of copper coins.

After careful inventory, there are a total of [-] coins and [-] cents.

Although Li Shimin was happy in his heart, he opened his mouth and said.

"Zhao Si, isn't it true that your slap is big, and you can catch a lot with one slap? It's ten bucks less than Feng Wu's car!"

Li Shimin's words made Zhao Si rub his hands in embarrassment.

I can't wait to rub my hands smaller.

"Father, I will leave you 620 pens today, and the rest will be useful for children."

Li Gen took out three coins and handed them to Zhao Si.

Tell him to buy some beef, mutton, tofu, etc. After buying, just go back to the manor.

Although the Tang Dynasty strictly prohibited the slaughter of farm cattle, those who died of old age or disease could still be sold once they were registered.

"Father, you did a great job delivering bean sprouts yesterday."

"Today not only Cheng Chumo, Yuchi Baolin and Qin Huaidao went to the East Market to help, Changsun Chong, Du He and Fang Yiai also went to the West Market to help."

"Yesterday, my dad did a very beautiful job of giving away bean sprouts. Today, my child will also do a beautiful thing."

"Oh, what's the matter?"

Li Shimin looked at his excited son and asked.

"At noon today, I was in our manor. I invited the six of them to drink and eat meat, and to build a good relationship with the six of them. Dad, baby, this is all for your future!"

"Okay, Dad agrees. From now on, you can handle the family affairs by yourself, and you don't have to discuss everything with Wei Dad."

Li Shimin smiled, reached out and patted Li Gen on the shoulder and said.

"Father, since you let me make the decision, then I did something wrong, you can't beat me and scold me!"
