Yipin Tang

Chapter 157 Plan
Wang Xiang bought more than 400 slaves at once, and such a big news naturally spread throughout Chang'an, and Li Shimin also learned about it in the palace.

He was discussing the matter of the bank with Empress Changsun, waved off the eunuch who reported to Empress Changsun, and smiled at Empress Changsun: "This prince's new behavior is really confusing, and I don't know why he spent tens of thousands of coins to buy so many slaves. "

It was previously rumored that Wang Xiang offered [-] yuan to help Ningxiang redeem her life, and Li Shimin was shocked. How many dandies can do such absurd things.

Empress Changsun leaned on the bed and said with a gentle smile: "I think that acting casually shows that he has a pure heart."

"The heart of a child?"

"Didn't Erlang realize that Wang Zixin's actions are completely random? When I first met him in Jinguang Lake, he was eating a bowl of noodle soup. At that time, he showed great disdain for fame and fortune."

Li Shimin shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I was almost deceived by his upright appearance at that time. This kid is so keen on fame and fortune now. He doesn't look down on the official position of Qipin Jiancheng, and he spends all day trying to study how to manage it." Buying and selling, even things like banks can be figured out.”

Empress Changsun chuckled lightly when she heard the words, looked at Li Shimin with a half-smile and asked, "Does Erlang really think so?"

After many years of husband and wife, how could she not know Li Shimin's thoughts, if Wang Zixin was really such an image in his heart, how could he be so valued by him.

Li Shimin chuckled, only in front of Empress Changsun would he act like a husband instead of an emperor.

"This kid has many problems. He is greedy for money, lazy, greedy for life and afraid of death, and doesn't respect me."

Empress Changsun pursed her lips and smiled: "Why don't you respect Erlang, I think he is very respectful to Erlang on weekdays."

"Hmph, that's all just pretending. As long as I say that I don't need to be more polite, he really won't be more polite. I think he respects Daoist Sun more than he does me."

Empress Changsun laughed and said: "So the concubine said that he has a pure heart. If he is really the one who is greedy for fame and fortune, why didn't he flatter Erlang? Erlang said that he didn't look down on the official position of Qipin Jiancheng, it is better to say that he has no intention of doing it. , I am afraid that even the first grade Sikong would not care about it."

"With this kid's laziness, he would be most satisfied as an idle Marquis. Now he is still holding the position of Supervisor of Si Nong Temple, Judgment of Gewu Academy, and the post of Chief of the Prince's Mansion. I have never seen him go to Si Nong. I have visited Nongsi and Gewuyuan a few times, and I have never been to the Prince's Mansion."

Speaking of this, Li Shimin frowned and said: "Although this kid has a lot of problems, he still has a little ability. I thought that he would be able to use it well in the future, but his temperament..."

Empress Changsun patted Li Shimin's hand and said warmly: "Why does Erlang think so much, even if he just wants to be an idle prince, it doesn't matter. Potatoes, horseshoes, gunpowder... and Qianzhuang, even this time, he is so casual To buy so many slaves, as long as he thinks about the Tang Dynasty and the common people, isn’t that enough. Doesn’t Erlang feel that he respects Taoist Sun more than Erlang?”

"I..." Li Er hesitated noncommittally, because he was always upset about this matter. Although Sun Simiao was indeed worthy of respect, at least he was the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Empress Changsun smiled when she saw Li Er's posture: "The reason why Wang Zixin respects Daoist Sun so much is because he is the same person as Daoist Sun."

"Sun Daochang regards fame and fortune as nothing and devotes himself to practicing medicine and saving the world. That kid thinks all day long how he can compare with Sun Daochang in doing business with me. He must have figured out some profitable business again by buying so many slaves at once."

Saying this in his mouth, his flickering eyes showed that he was thinking carefully about the words of Empress Changsun.

……

Wang Xiang went to the tooth dealer to buy slaves because he really planned to find some people for the theater, but buying all these slaves was just a spur of the moment. I couldn't help being impulsive for a while.

Although theaters need actors, they definitely can’t use so many people. It’s impossible to just leave them like this after buying them. How to arrange them becomes the biggest problem. If there are only a few dozen people, it’s easy to handle, but more than 400 people He also had some difficulties, and most of them were children aged five, six, seven or eight.

"Husband, why are you frowning?"

Wu Shun lay sideways on the bed and looked at Wang Xiang.

"Have you heard about my buying slaves today?"

Wu Shun said: "Words have spread in Chang'an City, why did you buy so many slaves?"

Wang Xiang smiled wryly and said: "The shop next to Dengxian Tower has been sold. I plan to open a theater. If the theater needs manpower, I will ask Degui to take me to Yajia. I didn't plan to buy so many people at first, but seeing them I couldn't hold back when I saw them all shivering in the cold with only tattered clothes, I... our family is not short of that little money."

Wu Shun put his head close to Wang Xiang's neck and said softly, "My husband is kind-hearted and doesn't want others to suffer, but my husband is worried about how to deal with those people?"

"Hey." Wang Xiang sighed and said, "That's more than 400 people. Kunlun slaves and Silla maidservants are okay. I have plans, but I really don't know how to arrange the more than 300 half-old children. If we can Just find their parents."

"It may not be easy to find their parents. Most of the children in Renyazi are bought from other places. Besides, selling the children means that their parents can't support these children at all. Otherwise, who would sell their children. "Wu Shun looked concerned.

"If I had brought out the potatoes earlier, I'm afraid there would be fewer such children." He believed that when the potatoes were fully popularized in the Tang Dynasty, the people would no longer have to sell their children because of the famine.

Wu Shun thought for a while and said, "Husband, why don't you send these children to Gewuyuan?"

Wang Xiang shook his head and said: "Gewuyuan is not a real academy after all, it is a new government place established by His Majesty, accepting dozens of students is regarded as a talent for His Majesty to cultivate, more than 300 people..."

"Then why don't you start a real academy?"

"Running a school?" Wang Xiang's eyes lit up when he heard this, it was a good idea.

It is not difficult for him to start an academy. The oldest of the children he bought is only seven or eight years old. It is unrealistic to ask them to do anything. It is not a long-term solution to raise them like this. They are the age of school. .

They can't do much now, but as long as they study in the academy for a few years, it will be of great use in the future. After all, the academy he runs is definitely different from other academies, and these children who have been cultivated since childhood will be strong in both ability and loyalty. on many.

Wang Xiang felt relieved when he had an idea, and couldn't help but tilt his head to kiss Wu Shun and said with a smile: "Haha, Ma'am, this is a good idea, I never thought of it, no, I must reward Madam well today... "
