This prince, it doesn't matter if you don't do it!

In terms of financial resources alone, there are really not many companies in Chang'an that can compete with Changming Company.

Except for Changming Logistics and the caravans in the harem controlled by the Queen, and the Tang Dynasty Treasury, no one in a single family can compare with Changming Company.

"Look, he's acting like an elder brother again. Isn't what I said the truth? Tens of thousands of dollars, put in my Daming business, won't even make a splash..." Fang Yiai was shocked with a nonchalant expression. Everyone.

Fang Yizhi was also speechless, what a rude mouth you have!
"What Fang Lao Er said is right." Li Jingren, who was on the side, also gave him a rare compliment and said with a smile, "It's only tens of thousands of guan. Even a decent workshop in Ming Dynasty can make more than this amount of profit in a year." .

You Changan-sitting land tigers can’t even afford tens of thousands of guan. If you let me, Daming, you really can’t get on the stage. "

"That's enough for you!" Li Jingheng couldn't help but said, "Who do you think can't get on the stage? Do you want me to invite my father and uncles here and you say it again?"

"It's just a bunch of bastards, and it's not over yet." Xiao Rui also said helplessly, "If Xiao Yue said this, as an elder brother, I have to slap him twice, let him know what it means to be an elder brother like a father. !”

"If Gao Chunxing dares to do this, I can't help it." Hearing this, Gao Chunxing nodded in agreement.

Immediately, the two of them looked at Fang Yizhi and Li Jingheng in a tacit understanding, as if they were urging them to show their eldest brotherhood.

Fang Yizhi glared at them angrily: "You two are not good people either. You want to watch the fun, right? But I won't let you watch."

In fact, everyone knows that those two are just joking.

Fang Yiai and others didn't take it to heart.

At that moment, Cheng Chuliang stood up and said, "Okay, okay, just tens of thousands of coins. If you have more capital, you can earn more. If you have less capital, you can earn less. It's good if you can make money."

In this way, I will tell you a few houses. If you can buy them, you will definitely make money in the future. "

"Can you make money by buying a house?" Xiao Rui was a little confused.

"If you believe us, just go and try. If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do." Cheng Chuliang immediately spread his hands.

Speaking of which, it was the only thing he could do.

They fully believed that with the opening of the grocery store, it would not be a problem to increase the selling price of the houses around the grocery store.If they didn't have so much money on hand, they would really want to take over all the surrounding houses.

"Let's just say, where?" Gao Xingcheng asked.

They don't actually care about how much money they make, but a clear attitude.

As Li Ke and the nobles were tied together, they also had to express their attitude.

Next door, the families of Xue Wanche and Xue Rengui were also at odds.

As for military generals, it is common for them to compete with each other for bravery. Although it is not convenient to show martial arts here, it is still possible to compete with each other for drinking.

But compared with Xue Rengui's drinking capacity, haha... This guy eats a sheep a day and is still half full!You can imagine how much alcohol you drink!

……

In the next few days, after Cheng Chuliang handed over the matter of buying a house to Xiao Rui and others, those days became more relaxed.

Day by day, several large carriages of copper coins were driven through the market, and all the merchants in Chang'an knew that the God of Wealth was coming.

But this also made Fang Yiai and others feel really happy.

And at the same time.

Taohe County.

Chu Suiliang received a letter from Changsun Wuji.

Not only him, Xu Jingzong also received a letter from Changsun Wuji.

At this moment, in Xu Jingzong's government office, the two of them looked at each other.

"Pu She wants us to go back to Chang'an?" Xu Jingzong shook his head and said, "But this Taohe County has just opened up. It would be a bit regretful to leave now."

He didn't want to go back, after all, some results had just come out.

Before coming to Taohe County, he didn't even have a real vacancy in Chang'an. He was really fed up with that kind of life.

If we go back, who knows what it will be like?
When Chu Suiliang heard this, he fell into deep thought, and after a while he said: "Since Pu She has written a letter, it means that something big is going to happen in Taohe County.

A few days ago, Wang Renyou took office as the Prime Minister of Taohe County, and the Duke of Lu took over as the military commander of Taohe County from Duke E. I am afraid that Taohe County will not be peaceful. "

For those with a discerning eye, these are all foreshadowings, but Xu Jingzong didn't care and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, this Taohe County has been the hard work of Pu She for many years, so it is a pity to give up now. .”

Although Changsun Wuji's letter didn't say anything explicitly, the words inside and outside were telling them to taint themselves and be demoted back to Beijing.

Chu Suiliang didn't care about this, but he did!
His reputation in Chang'an is not good to begin with. If this happens again, haha, the image he has managed to restore over the years will be in vain.

Seeing him like this, Chu Suiliang stopped talking. Everyone has his own ambitions.

In Chang'an, Du Chuke, then the chief historian of the Yue Palace, once again asked to see Li Tai.

Li Tai was doing nothing at first, but when he saw his arrival, he had some guesses in his mind.

Although he has no intention of seizing the legitimate son now, he still knows some news in the market.

"Chang Shi, please take a seat." Li Tai smiled warmly.

When Du Chuke saw this, he cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, are you really not ambitious?"

He wanted to try it again.

After all, Li Tai has no one to follow him yet. If he follows him at this time, he will be most profitable after he succeeds!
Li Tai shook his head and said with a smile: "The Changshi is a prime minister, what is ambition in this world? From the perspective of the Changshi, does it count as ambition for him to become a marquis and become a prime minister?
From the point of view of all the soldiers in the palace, is it considered ambitious to be knighted immediately in the future?

But from the perspective of this king, whether as a citizen of the Tang Dynasty or as a member of the Tang clan, there is no point in being able to open up territory for the Tang Dynasty in the future, or bring blessings to the Tang Dynasty, or protect the peace of the Tang Dynasty. Not an ambition? "

"Can……"

Before Du Chuke finished speaking, Li Tai waved his hand and said, "I know what Chang Shi meant. If it had been many years ago, I might have had some delusions. After all, no one can resist the erosion of desire. The same is true for me.

But now, I cannot do this. My mother is still alive and my father is in his prime. How dare I?

Of course, since Chang Shi has great ambitions, I don’t dare to harm others’ futures. Here is a letter to recommend Chang Shi. It should be correct. I only hope for the future. If Chang Shi succeeds and becomes famous, please remember today. I am the one who raises my noble hand above the palace. "

"I don't dare." Hearing what Li Tai said, Du Chuke quickly bowed and saluted.

He is actually very optimistic about this person.

He was really optimistic, but the minister was kind and gentle, and in his heart, he was considered the best candidate. However, he felt helpless because he was willing to waste his years and had no ambition to make progress.

Li Tai smiled, said nothing, and stood up to write the memorial.

By this time, the pair of ministers were finally reunited and separated.

The next day, when Fang Yiai and others were still squandering money in Chang'an City, Li Er also saw Li Tai's memorial.

At the moment, he was somewhat aware of what Du Chuke was doing recently.

"The King of Yue has just reported that his palace chief, Du Chuke, has been in the Yue Palace for several years and has worked conscientiously. To continue to stay in the palace is really a dereliction of talent. I want to find a job for him and help us in the Tang Dynasty..."

Li Er said, taking Li Tai's memorial in his hand, patting it, and looking at Li Ke and others.

He naturally knew the twists and turns involved. To be honest, Li Tai was too sensible. If Li Tai hadn't been unwilling, he would have really wanted to give his son a hand.Although Quan Wanji and others knew what was going on, they were all honest now.

When Changsun Wuji saw that no one responded, he went out and said: "Your Majesty, Taohe County has announced before that Hezhou should not use Chu Suiliang to waste public funds. Please make your decision."

Did Chu Suiliang waste public funds?
Li Er was happy to hear this, but when he heard this, he naturally understood what Changsun Wuji meant. This old fox still has a really sharp nose, but when he thought about it again, this old guy was so cooperative. If he didn't give him any face, That was unreasonable, so he pretended to be angry and said: "What a Chu Suiliang, let me pass on the decree, remove Chu Suiliang from all official positions, and return to Beijing to listen to the announcement!"

Before Chu Suiliang found Xu Jingzong, Chu Suiliang had already committed suicide. At that time, he only went to Xu Jingzong to find out Xu Jingzong's thoughts because he saw that Xu Jingzong had not made any move.

Changsun Wuji was such a smart man. When the Ming Dynasty mission visited the Tang Dynasty with such great fanfare, he realized that something was wrong. Coupled with Li Er's attitude, he made a judgment immediately.

As for Xu Jingzong's refusal to leave, then he has nothing to do with it. If you don't seize the opportunity given to you, then who can blame you?

"How about leaving Hezhou?" Changsun Wuji asked.

Hearing this, Li Er almost laughed out loud, raised Li Tai's memorial in his hand, and immediately said with a smile: "It's rare for Qingque to ask me once. Since he has spoken, and there happens to be a real vacancy, let Du Chuke take up his post." Don’t drive in the state.”

In fact, even if Chu Suiliang's incident had not happened, Li Er would have brought Du Chuke to Taohe County. This was his original plan.

It's just that with Chu Suiliang's thing, it's much easier for him to operate.

When Zheng Xu and others heard this, they felt a little excited in their hearts.

They believe that His Majesty must have seen what they and others have done recently. In this case, the meaning of letting Du Chuke go to Taohe is different.

After dealing with this matter, Zheng Xu immediately stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I have a starting point for you."

Li Er nodded and signaled Zheng Xu to continue.

Zheng Xu took out the memorial from his sleeve, and then said: "Your Majesty, recently, I have repeatedly heard that the Ming Dynasty envoys have made large purchases in Chang'an, spending hundreds of thousands of silver taels.

Although this small amount of financial resources is not enough to empty our Chang'an, their actions will not only cause the loss of countless supply of goods in our Datang, but even worse, directly destroy the business environment of our Datang.

It is reported that in recent days, many shops have simply not opened their doors, just sitting at home waiting for the Ming Dynasty envoys to smash a huge pie for them.

Now it seems that it has temporarily prospered the business of our Datang, but it is only temporary. Moreover, as far as Wei Chen knows, most of what they purchase are raw materials. Such behavior will do a lot of harm to our Datang without any benefit! "

In a competition for financial resources, they are naturally no match for Ming Dynasty, but this is Chang'an. Do they need to compete for financial resources?
When Li Er heard this, he also pretended to be surprised and said: "Is there anything else? The Ming Dynasty envoys have been sent to the palace! I want to see what these foreign envoys are going to do!"

Doesn't he know about this?

Haha, how is it possible? There are very few things that he doesn't know about in Chang'an.

When Zheng Xu and others saw this, they were overjoyed. His Majesty was on their side. This was more important than anything else.

Soon, Changsun Chong, Wang Dequan, and Pulebobo, the chief and deputy envoys, walked in with their heads held high.

After bowing and saluting, Changsun Chong asked: "I wonder what the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has ordered us to do today?"

Li Er directly recounted the accusations made by Zheng Xu and others, and then asked: "I don't know what Ming Dynasty meant by this?"

"What do you mean by your Majesty's words?" Changsun Chong asked with a puzzled look on his face, "I, the Ming Dynasty, sincerely took all the ministries of my Ming Dynasty as envoys to the Tang Dynasty. The original intention was to develop deeper cooperation with the Tang Dynasty, but how did the Tang Dynasty do it? ?

There is no other way, in order to show the strength of my Ming Dynasty, I have to make this move! "

"Humph, that's nonsense!" At this moment, Zheng Xu stood up and said, "We all know that although the Ming Dynasty is rich, it is short of resources. How dare you say that you purchased such a huge amount of materials this time not because of your Ming Dynasty? Is it scarce?

You have done this kind of thing a lot in the Ming Dynasty in recent years. From the grain back then to the final iron materials, have you done this kind of thing too often? "

"Hmph!" Changsun Chong snorted coldly after hearing this, "Don't say that the materials we purchased in Chang'an this time did not have the intention of bringing them back to the Ming Dynasty. Even if they did, they were bought by the Ming Dynasty with real money. Why, we still don't allow it. Is it a success?

Or, which law of the Tang Dynasty has our Ming Dynasty violated?
I heard that the Tang Dynasty is revising its laws recently. Do you want to add a few more articles? "

After finishing speaking to Zheng Xu, Changsun Chong turned around and bowed to Li Er and said, "Back to Your Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, this time our Ming Dynasty envoy entered Chang'an, everything we did was for the sake of deeper cooperation between our two countries, the Tang and Ming Dynasties.

Your officials only saw our massive purchase of raw materials, but they seemed to be blind, unable to see that Ming Dynasty was also acquiring and building workshops at the same time!
The two countries of Tang and Ming are supposed to be friendly, united and loving. However, for some unknown reason, your officials are targeting our country, Ming Dynasty. The two countries have been negotiating for several days, but there has been no progress. If this is not the case, why should our country, Ming Dynasty, be like this?Please give me an explanation, Your Majesty.

If you dislike me, the Ming Dynasty, I, the Ming Dynasty’s envoy, can just leave! "

Hearing this, Li Er smiled and did not answer Changsun Chong. He just looked at Changsun Wuji and others: "What do you guys say? I remember that the negotiations between the Tang and Ming Dynasties were left to you, right?
Why has there been no progress for so long? "

Naturally, he will not hold Zheng Xu and others accountable. It is not that he is partial to anyone. There is nothing he can do. The leader in name is Changsun Wuji. For this matter, he can only be approached. This is the rule.

When Changsun Wuji heard this, ten thousand grass and mud horses galloped past in his heart, but he still had to say apologetically: "Your Majesty, it is all the old ministers who have neglected their duties. This has led to no progress in the negotiations between the two countries. , the veteran minister will definitely supervise and try his best to make the consultations between the two countries reach an early conclusion."

"No need!" Before Li Er could reply, Changsun Chong said extremely rudely, "What's the use of talking about this now? I, the Ming Dynasty, came with absolute sincerity, but in the end, the Tang Dynasty regarded our sincerity as nothing. Wuwu, as ministers of the Ming Dynasty, when we are unwilling to accept it, we are not angry for the Ming Dynasty!

Since the Tang Dynasty despises me, the Ming Dynasty, we will take our leave now! "

"Why should the foreign envoy be angry?" Changsun Wuji said quickly, "It's all just a misunderstanding. I, Tang Ming, have always been good friends. How can we give up just because of a mere misunderstanding?"

After saying that, he glared at Changsun Chong and thought to himself, "You can stop it when you see it is good. Are you really out of breath?"

Changsun Chong said with a look of disdain: "Changsun Pushe has such great official authority, but why did Changsun Pushe not even fart when the two countries were negotiating?
If we hadn't known the system of the Tang Dynasty very well, would we have thought that Doctor Zheng was the head of the civil service of the Tang Dynasty? "

"The traitor..." Changsun Wuji heard this and was so angry that his beard turned over.

This bitch, sincerely makes me unable to get off the stage, right?

Li Er is also a little sluggish. Good guy, can you watch the show again?

Not to mention, he just likes watching this kind of show, it's so damn exciting.

"Changsun Pushe, please be careful what you say, this is the court!" Changsun Chong was not timid at all. Although he knew it was going to end, he had no choice. He had to operate on Changsun Wuji. The key is, he didn't do anything else. dare.

This person is great and can be taken care of by his family. If it had been someone else, he might have become a mortal enemy.

Changsun Wuji was furious. He pointed at Changsun Chong for a long time but couldn't say anything. How could he not know Changsun Chong's intention? He could understand it, but he couldn't accept it!
I am your father, your biological father!

Blatantly refuting my face, is this what humans do?

"Your Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, if the Tang Dynasty is full of such incompetent people, it would be better not to talk about cooperation between the two countries!" Changsun Chong said to Li Er without even looking at Changsun Wuji.

Li Er was enjoying watching the show. When he heard this, he looked at Changsun Wuji again. Changsun Wuji's heart quickly increased, but he couldn't move at all. He could only look at Zheng Zheng fiercely. Xu et al.

He really hates it!
Also really speechless.

In all these years, has he ever been so embarrassed?
The key is that he can't be too harsh on Changsun Chong. If he is too harsh, he will destroy his rebellious son. It's so frustrating!
"Your Majesty, if you're a humble minister, this matter is all the responsibility of Zheng Xu and the others!" At this moment, General Yan Lide, the supervising general, stood up and said, "The two countries have been negotiating for so long on cooperation issues. As far as they insist on insisting on certain rules and are unwilling to continue the discussion, as far as I'm concerned, these guys have all been dismissed, and no one has been wronged.

I will be supervising this, almost shutting down! "

After he finished speaking, Changsun Wuji looked at him gratefully and thought to himself, there are still many good people in this world.

Otherwise, he wouldn't know how to make a move.

When Zheng Xu heard this, he naturally quit. He immediately stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I am just doing things according to the rules. I will not harm the interests of the Tang Dynasty just for the sake of cooperation between Tang and Ming. What is the use of this cooperation?" ?”

He had to stand up. Even though Li Er had been indulging them recently, he still had to restrain himself sometimes.

The key is that half of the colleagues in the court are offended, which is not a good thing.

They were all pushed to Li Chengqian's side, what else were they playing with?
Chaotang is always about balance.
