A Good Landlord in the Tang Dynasty: Emperor Yuan Cong

Chapter 588 Fan Chuan
the party is over,

In the back room of the restaurant, Forresta made tea for Huaiyu and massaged his head to relax him.

still beautiful,

It exudes a nice fragrance,
"That Li Xiaoshu often comes to the wine shop, and every time he invites many people, including colleagues from the East Palace, officials from the provincial temple, and some scholars and knights,"

Huaiyu closed his eyes and enjoyed it,

Although Li Yifu is young, he is very mature in his dealings. This person is only sixteen, but he is already well-versed in the officialdom. However, ordinary teenagers from ordinary families at this age may only know one-third of an acre in front of them. land.

This is the horizon. At a young age, Li Yifu followed his father while studying and traveled to many places. Even when his father was the county magistrate, he followed him and got in-depth contact with the operation of the yamen. He became enlightened and understood it very early. The operating logic of this world.

"The consumption here is not low. Can he afford to treat you often?"

"Then you have underestimated your student and brother-in-law. He is very popular in the East Palace. You know that many people are trying to befriend this man. It costs tens of thousands to ask him to write an epitaph, and his calligraphy and painting are also expensive. It is very popular and many people buy it.

He also wrote several novels, which were published and sold for a lot of money. "

"And he asked me to rent some street shops in Chang'an, and then bought some popular commodities from your workshop to sell, such as soap, sugar, fire salt, bamboo paper, Duan inkstones, etc., and he made a lot of money. "

"Mr. Anlu's residence is also very generous to this son-in-law. Mrs. Wu's dowry is quite large,"

Wu Huaiyu smiled.

Li Yifu originally selected the daughter of Shishi Yi and Zhuge from the Hongnong Yang family, Bingzhou Wu family, and even Lao Cheng. It seems that they were very discerning. After the two got married, Shishi Yi was very interested in this son-in-law. Still reluctant to spend money.

The fact that Li Yifu and his wife were able to quickly establish themselves in Chang'an from being poor officials and still be able to get along so well had a lot to do with the Wu family's willingness to support them.

Just like this wine shop, it is a very high-end Hu restaurant in Chang'an. The Hu Ji here is beautiful, the Hu wine is delicious, and the price is naturally not cheap.

Li Yifu brings a large group every time he comes, and the consumption is very high.

"When Li Yifu comes again in the future, you can give him a better discount. You can pay it directly to my account. You can pay it anytime."

"This Forresta belongs to Alang, why are you talking to foreigners like that?" She leaned up from behind.

"I told you a long time ago that just send [-]% of the net profit to my house every month. The rest will remain in the wine shop and you will be responsible for the management and operation. [-]% of the net profit of the wine shop will be used as stock dividends for you."

"The whole slave belongs to Alang."

She wrapped around me like a beautiful snake,
"Since Banu left, I feel a lot lonely. Every time I go to visit her and the child, I feel envious. Alang, please give me a child too,"

"You really want a baby?"

"I think about it, I think about it very much. Banu's child is so cute. I wish I could steal it and raise it." She smiled.

Although Forresta has gone through a lot, she has truly settled down now, especially with Wu Huaiyu as a solid backer. Life is much easier than before.

But Yinfa is getting stronger and stronger and wants to have a child.

"If you want to have a baby, then have one."

"I want it now."

As she said this, she leaned over.

"Let me do the math for you,"

After some calculation, today is the safe period.

But she didn't believe it and insisted.

·······
Gao Huitong held the teacup and looked at his brother-in-law.

"Xianggong Wu is really busy,"

"Lady Gao is everywhere. I even wonder if you have been spying on me."

Gao Huitong chuckled.

Huaiyu was helpless. He remembered that this was the Nine-tailed Fox of the Six Gates. Although Liu Dewei was currently in charge of the Six Gates, his status was extraordinary.

My identity must have always been on the six-door watch list.

"I just came here to celebrate the opening of the branch," Gao Huitong said with a smile. This nine-tailed fox has many identities. She is both the high lady of Tingyu Tower in Pingkangfang and the Gongsun lady of Banu Winery in Xishi City.

"There is one thing. Our six-door investigation has uncovered many of Pei Ji's properties. These are properties that Pei Ji has not put on the public eye before. There are many fields and villages among them. Are you interested in buying some? They are all good land. I saw that there is a piece of land in Shenhe Plain, which is your Qianmu Village next to Xiangji Temple. It has [-] acres of land. In addition, there is another land on the bank of Fanchuan River under the plateau. Industry and thousands of acres of rice fields, are you interested?"

"Oh, there is such a good thing?"

"Well, all the land here is in hot demand. I'm just looking at the village that happens to be next to you, and I specially wanted to give you a sneak peek."

The Shenhe Plateau is also called the Shenhe Plateau. It is said that during the Jin Dynasty, there was a severe drought in the world, but there was a sacred crane on the Shenhe Plateau that picked up the seeds of the sacred grain and grew an ear weighing six kilograms, which was auspicious.

As a plateau south of Chang'an, the Shenhe Plain is relatively small among all other plateaus. It is much smaller than the Shaoling Plateau and the Bailu Plateau. It is about twenty miles long and three or four miles wide. It is sandwiched between the Jishui River and the Between the water.

However, the conditions on the plateau are good, with acres and acres of wheat fields. There is even a magical thing here, that is, whenever it rains, it rains harder on the Shenhe plateau than in Chang'an and its surrounding areas.

Because of this, although the Shenhe Plain is also a plateau, it is less drought-prone than other plateaus. Not only does wheat grow well here, but there are even tens of thousands of acres of rice fields beside the plateau.

Wu Huaiyu's Qianmu Zhuangzi is located on the northwest plateau of Shenhe Plateau, on the shore of the Jinghe River and the Piaohe River. The two rivers meet here and go west to merge into the Fenghe River.

Pei Ji, an unnamed Zhuangzi, is to the east of it, close to the Jianhe River.The Jinghe River between Shenhe Plateau and Shaoling Plateau is also called Fanchuan. This dozens of miles long river road was once granted by Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, to General Fan Kuai as a fief, hence the name. This is the long-term development of Jinghe River. The impact plain formed by cutting and flushing has fertile land and convenient transportation. It has been the best grain field in Chang'an, Guanzhong since ancient times.

During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, because it was close to Chang'an and had convenient transportation, it was a place where nobles and relatives competed to build villas. And to the north of Fanchuan, it was the place where the Jingzhao Wei family and the Du family lived together for generations.

In addition to Weidu Erqu, there are also Wang Qu, Zhang Qu, Xuan Qu, Huang Qu, etc.

People in Guanzhong say that a village with a river in front and a plateau behind it is named after a song. The songs in Fanchuan are also related to several powerful local families.

"There are a lot of people fighting for such a precious land, right?"

"Don't worry about this. In fact, His Majesty asked me to ask you if you want it."

When Huaiyu heard this, he felt confident.

Pei Ji's two pieces of land, Shenheyuan and Fanchuan, total [-] acres, and there are two Zhuangzi and one other property. When Pei Ji was the prime minister of martial virtue and the emperor's most favored minister, this treasure land fell into his hands. , it also took some effort and a lot of energy to manage it later.
Although for some unknown reason, these two pieces of land were not directly listed under the Pei family's name.

But if this land is released, there will probably be a lot of people who want it. No matter how expensive it is, there will always be powerful families who want it, especially those from nearby famous families like Weidu.

The emperor asked Gao Huitong to ask Huaiyu, which can actually be regarded as a reward for him.

"Since it is His Majesty's holy grace, I naturally want it."

Huaiyu didn't ask about the price. This land was certainly not cheap, but such a treasure land was hard to buy even with money. The last time he was able to acquire a thousand acres, he had to dig it out with great difficulty when he was robbing the third-order cultivator. As prime minister, he only received the allotment of one thousand acres.

"Then I'll do it for you later."

"Well, thanks a lot,"

"This is all your Majesty's kindness." Gao Huitong smiled.

"I heard that the prince displeased His Majesty yesterday." The sister-in-law revealed a piece of news to Huaiyu in a low voice.

"Oh?"

"It is said that it is also related to your Wu family."

Huaiyu's heart moved. Could it be that the prince really went to the emperor to refuse to marry the Su family and wanted to marry Wu Erniang?
Is the prince so impulsive?

Sure enough, Gao Huitong told him that this was exactly what happened. The prince mentioned to Huaiyu that day that he did not want to marry the Su family and wanted to marry the second daughter of the warrior Xun. Wu Huaiyu did not support it, but also said that he could explain his ideas to the emperor and empress.

Unexpectedly, he actually went to tell the emperor and empress.

This incident caused Li Shimin's displeasure. It is said that the father and son even got into an argument. It was during dinner, and the prince also chose a good time. The atmosphere was good, but during the argument, the emperor still threw the bowl in anger.

Wu Huaiyu couldn't help but think deeply while holding the tea cup.

The prince refused to marry the Su family in front of the emperor and proposed to marry the Wu family, which made the emperor furious. However, the emperor turned around and asked Gao Huitong to see Huaiyu and arranged for the sale of two such good pieces of land to him.

There is a lot of information contained in this.

"The prince rejects the martial arts Su family and wants to marry the Wu family. Isn't this your suggestion, Erlang?"

Huaiyu shook his head.

"Really? But the prince came to your house one day and refused to marry your majesty the next day."

Huaiyu had no choice but to say, "That day, the prince did mention to me the marriage that His Majesty had chosen for him, and said that he did not like the Su family. I also advised His Majesty that the marriage was the result of the matchmaker's orders from the parents. He said that he was interested in the four of me. My uncle’s second wife, I say this is not appropriate,”

Gao Huitong looked directly at Huaiyu.

Wu Huaiyu felt that those eyes looked like Li Shimin's behind them.

"What I said is true. When the prince left that day, I tried to persuade him a lot. In the end, the prince said that if he could only marry the Su family, he would like to take Er Niang as the prince's concubine in the future."

"I suggest that you'd better explain it to His Majesty in person. His Majesty is probably still angry."

Wu Huaiyu also knew the seriousness inside.

If the emperor determines that Wu Huaiyu seduced the prince into rejecting the martial arts Su family and marrying the Wu family, then this matter would be very serious indeed.

Fortunately, he does have a clear conscience and this matter really has nothing to do with him.

Of course, what needs to be explained still needs to be explained. Now that the emperor asked Gao Huitong to give him land, he was actually reminding him to wait for his explanation.

"Have you seen Su Dan's daughter?"

"I have seen."

"how?"

Gao Huitong just smiled and said, "Your Majesty and the Queen can choose her. In addition to her good family background, she is also a very good person."

After hearing this, Huaiyu understood that it was really difficult for Cheng Qian to change this matter.

"Why does the prince dislike the Su family so much?"

"Then I don't know. I guess I don't like that type. The martial arts Su family is also a well-known noble family. The Su family has strict family education and many rules, and they are young. Maybe the prince feels that it is not what he wants after seeing him."
