My servant in the Tang Dynasty is Li Shimin

Chapter 140 There are no more people, so why not die?

"Ah!"

Li Junxian sneezed, his expression turned from dazed to dull.

he looks like.
"General, do you have a cold?"

"Shall we fix it?"

A cavalryman blinked and became concerned.

"shut up!"

"Ah~ahhhhhh!!!"

After leaving Lantian County, Li Junxian, who was sneezing all the way, did not return directly to the palace.

Instead, according to His Majesty's order, he came to Zhao Guogong's mansion and handed over all the baskets of glazed treasures to Zhao Guogong.

These glazed treasures were all carefully selected by Wang Yuan.

Not only is the shape very unique and elegant, but the body shape is not bad, it can be regarded as a fighter jet among the tattered.

If these things were placed before time travel, they might sell for thousands of dollars each, let alone fool those ignorant ancients.

Of course, this is purely Wang Yuan's personal opinion.

"There are a total of 49 glazed treasures, Mr. Zhao, please count them."

As soon as the words fell, Li Junxian threw the basket over.

What the hell!

"Can't you be more careful?"

In front of the mansion, Zhao Guogong's eldest Sun Wuji, who was stroking his long beard and counting the clouds, quickly took the fifteen-kilogram basket.

When I opened it, I was shocked again, and my expression was completely stunned!

Under the excitement, he almost pulled out his beard!
Although he knew very early on that His Majesty wanted to sell the treasure of colored glaze to a family.

But I really didn't expect that the quality of these glazed treasures would be so high!
Even though he was mentally prepared, he was still frightened.

"I'm afraid there are 50 pieces of these treasures that people can buy!"

"And they are rushing to buy!"

Changsun Wuji was full of admiration, and while speaking, his tongue was knotted and he stuttered.

If it wasn't for His Majesty's order, he really wanted to take all of them home and treasure them, so that they could be passed down from generation to generation.

They are so beautiful!
I am afraid that apart from the prince's mansion, the entire Tang Dynasty does not have so many glazed treasures.

Although Changsun Wuji had never entered Wang Yuan's study and hadn't seen the glazed wall, he could deduce the truth from some clues.

Prince Wang has mastered the craftsmanship that can mass-produce glazed treasures!

"Hey! This is the real peerless talent!"

Changsun Wuji was amazed, and once again felt that his age had been spent on dogs.

Unlike Changsun Wuji's excitement, Li Junxian's face was expressionless, with a red nose, and his expression was numb.

Just like this, he silently watched Changsun Wuji admire him, very ruthless, full of iron and blood.

This is the superficial situation, but the reality is that he is resisting the urge to sneeze at Changsun Wuji.

"What's the matter? Why do I feel that you are not surprised at all, General Zhong Lang?"

Changsun Wuji withdrew his fiery gaze and looked at Li Junxian, puzzled.

Could it be that he has no interest in the glazed treasure?

"It's just a bunch of rags, what's there to be happy about?"

"Zhao Guogong, I still have something important to do, so I will leave first."

Li Junxian's face was cold, and it was full of strangers, so he said goodbye and left.

No, I really can't help it.

"Ahhh!!!"

"Is this a ghost situation?"

Changsun Wuji stood there blankly, looking at Li Junxian who was sneezing as he left, with capitalized questions all over his forehead.

Why does this situation feel weird?

Changsun Wuji was puzzled, but he didn't dwell on it for too long.

After a while, he turned around and looked at the gradually setting sun, with a complex and gloomy expression.

"That's good, it's going to be dark soon."

Early the next morning, Changsun Wuji started to prepare for the auction, bringing one of the glazed treasures, and visiting the families in person.

For those aristocratic families who were not in Chang'an City, Changsun Wuji would also personally write letters, exhausting all kinds of words of praise for these glazed treasures.

What are the peerless treasures of the Western Regions, the rare treasures that are rare in a hundred years, the unprecedented masterpieces, etc., anyway, all the words of praise are used.

These things seem to be very complicated, but in fact it is not much trouble at all.

The bait was very fragrant. Whenever he came to those aristocratic families in Chang'an, the head of the family would warmly entertain him and even send generous gifts to thank him.

As for the outside of Chang'an City, they all replied that they would rush to Chang'an overnight to participate in the auction.

It can only be said that all the fish are ready to take the bait.

Time passed slowly, just like this, a month passed.

During this period, countless aristocratic and powerful families gathered together, and all five surnames and seven Wangs gathered at the same time!
The auction of the Liuli Treasure caused an uproar in Chang'an City.

It is divided into seven days, and seven pieces are auctioned every day.

Within seven days, a total of 49 glazed treasures were auctioned off!

Every piece is a sky-high price!

Among them, the lowest price is 42 guan, and the highest price is above the glazed version of "Horse Stepping on a Flying Swallow" that Wang Yuan made out of thin air according to his memory!
This treasure of the Eastern Han Dynasty, whose main body is still buried in the ground, aroused the crazy pursuit of many aristocratic families as soon as it appeared!

The final auction price directly came to an unprecedented 210 million guan, which was purchased by the Cui family who is "the most noble family in the world and the head of the northern wealthy family"!
When this price was reported, the entire auction venue was completely shocked, and the sound of breathing resounded throughout the venue!

This is 210 million guns, which can organize an army of [-] people, and can continue to fight for a whole year!

You must know that the current tax revenue of the Tang Dynasty is only 2000 million guan a year!

And now, Cui Shi actually used it to buy a glazed treasure!
But their shock was far from over, it could even be said that it was just the beginning!
When the auction ended, the people of Chang'an City, as well as Changsun Wuji and many other court ministers, saw a scene that they would never forget!
Carts of food, weapons, copper coins, silver, and gold were all transported to Zhao Guogong's mansion just like a bad street.

It even lined up a whole street!

Oh my God!

If they are so greedy, they will not die, so His Majesty can feel at ease! ?
Changsun Wuji held the account book and looked at the carriages. While recording, his hands were shaking, and he knocked off the ink several times.

If it weren't for the servants who were waiting by the side and constantly giving him massages, Changsun Wuji would have passed out long ago.

I thought that my eldest grandson's family, although not with five surnames and seven surnames, should be ranked first.

Unexpectedly, I was just a "beggar" from beginning to end!
If it wasn't for holding this auction, I'm afraid he would never have known that these aristocratic families are so rich!
"If it wasn't for this auction, I'm afraid I would never have known that these aristocratic families are so rich!"

In the imperial study room, Li Shimin looked at the memorial handed over by Changsun Wuji, his hands were shaking with anger, and his teeth were about to shatter.

"300 million copper coins, [-] stones of grain, and [-] bolts of cloth"

Li Shimin's eyes were red, and he said the numbers one by one, put down the memorial, pressed his hands on the table, and cracks suddenly appeared one after another.

"Good! Good! These aristocratic families are really more greedy than one!"

"It's true that all of them are heifers. If you give them a pair of wings, wouldn't they be able to go to heaven!"

Li Shimin was so angry that he subconsciously uttered Wang Yuan's "famous quotes from celebrities".

Among other things, as far as the amount of grain is concerned, 730 shi is 460 million kilograms, a total of [-] million jin!
This is almost catching up with one-third of the grain output of the entire Tang Dynasty!
You must know that like the Tang Dynasty, there is no good food preservation technology, and the food will rot after one or two years of storage.

And in this case, these aristocratic families still have so much "good" food.

It is conceivable that in the past, these aristocratic families would rather rot their food in the warehouse than take it out for disaster relief!

Every year in the country, at least half of the food is rotten in the warehouse!

If all these grains can be distributed, at least tens of millions of people will not worry about famine for a year.

But these aristocratic families would rather all the food rot than pull out even a single drop.

The world is constantly famine, and the people starve to death, but these aristocratic families are getting richer and richer than the other!
Even want to resell!

This kind of behavior is simply not as good as a beast!

Li Shimin originally thought that it would take at least a year for these aristocratic families to recover from the matter of the monument of merit.

Unexpectedly, in just a few months, they have become "fat", and they are even richer than when they set up the merit monument!

Just like this, he actually had to send an edict to himself before, and even himself, the emperor, to admit his mistakes?

"Fuck me, the five surnames and seven Wangs are all rubbish!"

"I want the people to have a full mouthful of food, why do they insist on robbing it?"

"Is it possible that these things were dogs in the previous life?"

Li Shimin was so angry that he even burst out with foul language.

They even came up with the idea of ​​letting the army withdraw from the border, not to fight Tubo, but to come back first and destroy many aristocratic families.

"Your Majesty, you have to calm down!"

Hearing these furious words, Changsun Wuji broke out in a cold sweat, and repeatedly comforted him:
"Now the ministers of the court and the central government are basically from aristocratic families, especially the five surnames and seven Wangs, whose roots are even more terrifying."

"If the interests of the aristocratic family are affected, they are likely to unite together and rebel together!"

"Now our Tang army is basically at the border. If they rebel, Chang'an City may not last long."

"Even the Jinwu Guard, the imperial army may be incited to rebel!"

At this moment, Changsun Wuji was really afraid, afraid that Li Shimin would lose his mind and declare war on all the aristocratic families desperately.

As a commoner acquaintance who has followed Li Shimin for more than 20 years, he is well aware of how cruel Li Shimin's nature is.

After all, the one in front of him is the only "Admiral Tiance" in history!
Although the military god of the Tang Dynasty was Li Jing, it was only because Li Shimin became the emperor, otherwise how could it be Li Jing's turn?
"Your Majesty, you must calm down!"

"If you want to settle accounts, let's wait until Tubo is destroyed first."

Under Changsun Wuji's series of comforts, Li Shimin gradually calmed down.

"Hey!"

He sat down slumped, looking at the roof, his eyes were out of focus, exuding deep fatigue.

"Auxiliary machine, I am the emperor, is it particularly useless?"

　The title comes from the fourth sentence of "The Book of Songs Xiangshu".

　　It means that people without shame, what are they waiting for if they don't die.

　　Finally, there is another update tonight.
