Neon Clothes and Iron Clothes

Chapter 355 Gold and Silver
"Well, then this matter has been settled!" Li Zhi nodded: "I just want to take this opportunity to avoid going to Luoyang for food in the next year, but it's best not to do this kind of thing out of good intentions, Ah Wu, what do you have in hand? But if you have capable talents, it is best not to have a high official position now, and a sixth or seventh grade is enough!"

Wu and Li Zhi have been husband and wife for many years, and they immediately understood what her husband meant: no matter what, it is an offense to send so many people from the capital to the border, and it will damage the reputation and virtue of the emperor, so the best way is to Find a competent person to take the blame. The reason why the official position should not be too high is because the official will worry about gains and losses when he becomes a big official, and dare not offend others. smaller.

"I can't remember the identity of a concubine who is an official of the sixth and seventh ranks, or let Li Yifu recommend someone tomorrow!"

"Alright!" Li Zhi was a little tired, and he pressed his forehead: "Awu, after this matter is over, let that Wang Wenzuo go to Baekje as soon as possible!"

"Go to Baekje as soon as possible?" Mrs. Wu was taken aback when she heard this, "Why?"

"Awu, do you still remember Xue Wanche? I don't want him to continue to wallow in the big quagmire of Chang'an, otherwise he will be involved sooner or later. Even if it is a pity, he can only be killed!" Li Zhi sighed: "Hong'er is too old. It’s not too young, you must leave him a useful knife!”

"What Your Majesty said is true!" Wu Shi nodded, "It would be a pity if it was like Xue Wanche!"

"That's right! I really regret it when I think about it now. If Wanche is still alive, why do I have to toss a Su Dingfang back and forth from west to east, and then from east to west? The people in the army who can control aspects are really There are too few!" Li Zhi sighed: "Finally there is someone available, let him practice more at the border!"

The Xue Wanche that Li Zhi talked about was a famous general in the Taizong era and the son-in-law of the Emperor Taizong. Because he was implicated in the Fang Yiai's rebellion case, he was sentenced to death by the eldest grandson Wuji who was in charge of hearing the case at that time.At that time, Li Zhi certainly felt that his uncle had eradicated all the potential threats in the noble clan for him, killing them well and killing them well.But after these years, Li Zhi looked back and knew that Xue Wanche must have been unjustly killed by Changsun Wuji, and as the territory of the Tang Dynasty continued to expand, there were fewer and fewer military officials available. The times were different and the mentality was different. Views are also very different.

Li Zhi sighed a few times, then went back to the brocade couch, lay down, and fell into a deep sleep.After confirming that Li Zhi was completely asleep, Mrs. Wu carefully left the house, called an eunuch, and said in a low voice, "Go to Mr. Li immediately and ask him to pick a competent person to deal with the case of the Chang'an Rebellion." , remember, we must take this opportunity to dispose of the evil seed left by Li Sujie, that bitch Xiao!"

West Market.

"Listen, it's quiet outside!" Hei Chi Chang Zhi put down the wine glass in his hand and said in a low voice.

"Yes!" Wang Wenzuo listened carefully: "It seems that hanging the head to show the public is quite effective!"

"It's also possible that they ran home after grabbing enough!" Hei Chi Chang Zhi said with a smile.

"That's fine. After all, we are not Marquis Wu. We don't care about catching thieves. As long as there is no one on the street, that's enough!" Wang Wenzuo picked up a piece of rabbit meat, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it twice, and said with a smile: "Yes, the taste of this rabbit meat is really good, cook, cook!"

"The villain is here!" An Wuniang, who was kneeling under the hall, hurriedly responded, and she took two steps on her knees: "What orders do you have, sir!"

"This rabbit meat doesn't taste earthy at all. Your craftsmanship is really good!" Wang Wenzuo pointed to the rabbit meat on the table: "Tell me, how do you cook it?"

Hearing Wang Wenzuo said that her craftsmanship is good, An Wuniang couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and hurriedly smiled and said: "The rabbit meat is a family tradition. If you want the rabbit meat to have no smell, you must first wash it with clean water, and then put it away." Rinse it with ginger and garlic in boiling water to remove the scum floating on the water surface, then fish out the rabbit meat and dispose of it, naturally there will be no miscellaneous smell!"

"You've put in so much effort, I'll reward you!" Wang Wenzuo took out a few silver coins from his pocket and threw them to An Wuniang: "However, few people put much thought into cleaning rabbit meat!"

"Thank you for your reward!" An Wuniang took the silver coin and was overjoyed. She kowtowed her head twice, put the silver coin into her arms, and said with a smile, "I don't know, this rabbit meat is cheap meat, rich people eat it." All kinds of game, mutton, beef, pork, chicken, donkey, and dog meat for middle-level people; those who come to the villain’s shop are from poor backgrounds, and can only eat rabbit meat and various offal. The villain’s ancestors are Hu people , I don’t pay much attention to eating, there are many ways to clean up these cheap meats and eat them. For example, the best sellers in the villain’s shop are rabbit meat and miscellaneous meatballs, which are made of offal and rabbit meat! "

"Well, then you must have made a lot of money, right?" Wang Wenzuo asked with great interest.

"It's all hard-earned money!" An Wuniang hurriedly said, "Besides, even if you have some money, it will probably be robbed of it this time!" At this point, she couldn't help sobbing.

"Okay, okay!" Wang Wenzuo was in a good mood at this moment: "You don't have to cry, I just made a fortune today, so I might as well do something good. Let me ask you, how much does it cost to reopen your store?"

"Fifty guan is about the same!"

"Fifty guan? Well, when you pack up later, just take the fifty guan and reopen the shop!" Wang Wenzuo laughed.
"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir!" An Wuniang was overjoyed when she heard the words, and hurriedly kowtowed.Wang Wenzuo waved his hand: "If you want to thank me, just go down and prepare a few more delicious dishes and serve them up. Go down, go down!"

An Wuniang retreated happily, and the black-toothed Changzhi smiled and said: "Your Majesty is so kind, and there will be good fortune in the future!"

"Today, people in Xishi stepped on horses, stomped on horses, burned with knives, and I don't know how many people lost their lives. But this woman has no fists or courage, but she hid behind the hole in the wall without hurting a single hair. Blessed person. I killed so many people today and made such a fortune, giving her the power of fifty guan is considered a good fortune."

"That's true!" Hei Chi Chang Zhi nodded, "However, I have a question that I would like to ask!"

"Chang Zhi, please tell me!"

"Since those Hu merchants have already agreed to take out half a treasury of gold and silver as a reward, why didn't your lord take all of them? Just take two loads and let it go? Merchants all over the world love money like their lives, and their promises are just forced by the situation. , when the current situation changes, there will definitely be trouble again!"

"Changzhi's right!" Wang Wenzuo said with a smile, "Then you say that if I take half of the treasury and leave now, those Hu merchants won't have trouble again?"

"This—" Hei Chi Changzhi was taken aback when he heard the words: "Even if there will be trouble again, but the gold and silver are in our hands, what can they do to us?"

"They may not be able to do anything to us, but that's half a treasury of gold and silver!" Wang Wenzuo said in a serious tone: "Even if it's five thousand catties of gold and five thousand catties of silver! Do you think such a large amount of wealth will be worth it?" How many people who can do nothing to us will be tempted?"

After hearing Wang Wenzuo's words, Hei Chi Changzhi already understood that maybe the Hu merchants couldn't do anything to them, but there were too many people in Chang'an city who could do nothing to them.The ancients said: "When a rabbit walks today, a hundred people chase it. It is not that one rabbit is enough to divide a hundred people. The division is not yet determined. The division is not yet determined. Yao will bend his strength, let alone everyone! Rabbits are in the market, and those who walk don't care. No no If you want to be a rabbit, the division has already been determined. The division has been determined, even though people are contemptible, they will not fight. Therefore, governing the world and the country depends on the division."

No matter how much gold and silver are in the Hu merchant's vault, they will not attract people to chase them, because these gold and silver belong to the owner, and if Wang Wenzuo uses some means to get the gold and silver, it will definitely attract the coveting of countless people Because in the eyes of everyone, these gold and silver are ownerless things. Since Wang Wenzuo can get them by means, they can naturally take them from Wang Wenzuo.No matter how powerful Wang Wenzuo is, he can't stop so many coveted hands and eyes.Instead of seizing half a treasury of gold and silver insatiably, it is better to simply leave it in the treasury of Hu merchants, as long as a receipt is required.Anyway, after the two loads of gold and silver that he is going to leave now to reward the soldiers, there is still a lot left. Putting it in the bag will not attract the coveting and jealousy of powerful people, but also get the gratitude of Hu merchants. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

"It's still Mr. Lang who is thoughtful, but this subordinate still thinks too simple!"

"Hehe, although Chang'an is good, it is not a place for you and me to stay for a long time. After this matter, you should follow me back to Baekje!"

"What the lord said is exactly what my subordinates are thinking!" Black-toothed Changzhi sighed, "When I first came to Chang'an, I thought it was a place where heavenly people lived, but the longer I stayed, the more I felt. The more uncomfortable I feel, the more I think of the mountains and rivers of Baekje in my dreams!"

"Yes!" Wang Wenzuo sighed: "I thought that after I returned to Chang'an, I would let go of my mind and live a peaceful life for a few days, but what happened?" Having said that, he picked up the wine glass and drank it down, pouring the glass into the cup. Throwing it on the ground, it was smashed to pieces.

At this time, An Wuniang came back again, brought some dishes and put them on the table, Wang Wenzuo ate a few mouthfuls, it was really good, Chen praised a few words.Seeing that Wang Wenzuo was in a happy mood, An Wuniang on the side asked cautiously, "Mr. Sir, I have something to do, and I want to ask him for advice!"

"What's the matter?"

"That's the case. The villain's wine shop is next to the cemetery. The prisoner Liu Weili used to drink in the restaurant before. Could this implicate the villain!"

"If it's just drinking, it shouldn't be implicated!"

"Then if, the villain is just saying if, if that guy comes to the store to do other things besides drinking, will the villain be implicated?" Speaking of this, An Wuniang hurriedly said: " Of course, the villain doesn't know anything about that guy!"
