The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

The man left Liangyi Hall and walked in the palace. He met Li Yiming who was about to go out of the palace.

"But what did you know?" Li Yiming saw someone coming out of Liangyi Hall and asked.

The man shook his head.

"Your Majesty didn't say it. He also said that this was someone else's private matter and that people were not allowed to ask about it."

Li Yiming clenched his fists.

Your Majesty actually favored King Jingyang so much.

The court reduced the number of kings, and my father was King Yi'an, and he was also among them. If my father's title was reduced, what would be left for me, the prince, to inherit in the future?

At the end of Daye, there was a serious famine in the Central Plains. The emperor raised his army from Taiyuan and marched towards Guanzhong. The problem of food and grass had not been solved, so that he could not cross the Yellow River to enter the pass. If it were not for his father's offering of Yongfeng Warehouse to stabilize the military and the people, it would be unknown whether the emperor could sit on the throne.

Now that the Tang Dynasty is unified and stable, it is time to cross the river and demolish the bridge.

What a great Li Shimin, what a great Li Fu.

Li Fu was also a prince, how could he escape from the matter of being stripped of his title?

Just because he had a good relationship with His Majesty, would he keep his treatment?

If His Majesty did so, how could he convince the people?

Li Fu could not find out what was going on in the court of Chang'an City now. Even if the news reached Huizhou, the matter would have been over.

After Li Fu arrived in Huizhou, his troops entered the city in a mighty manner. Earlier, Li Fu sent someone to deliver a letter, asking the people here to arrange food and accommodation first.

With so many people, ordinary inns could not accommodate them.

Moreover, there were so many goods and treasures that even if there was a large inn, Li Fu would not feel at ease if he really stayed there for a long time. Therefore, the inn could only be used for resting.

A suitable place still needs to be closer to the tea mountain.

After entering the city, the group found the largest inn to stay temporarily. Li Fu directly asked Wu Liangye to find the shopkeeper. They wanted to book the entire inn. When they stayed here, they would not receive outside visitors.

The innkeeper was a businessman. As long as there was money, everything could be negotiated.

Seeing that Li Fu was dressed luxuriously and had so many guards around him, he guessed that he was of extraordinary status and was not a person who lacked money.

Since someone was holding money to offer business, how could there be no reason to respond?

They stayed in the inn temporarily, and also wanted to wait for the reunion with the people sent earlier.

The tea mountain was not near the city, and it might take a long way to go.

Dong Jiu went out to inquire about the news.

Mainly to see how the local customs were, and then ask the local people about the security management near Huizhou, whether there were strong men in the mountains, and whether the passing caravans were safe.

After the meeting, they also had to leave the city and go outside.

Moreover, they may have to settle down near the tea mountains.

Huizhou is located on the edge of "the end of Wu and Chu", with high mountains and dense forests, varied terrain, many people and little arable land. In order to survive, local people will do business to supplement their family income.

In the future, the wood, cloth, tea and four treasures of the study here will be very famous.

But now, this is just an ordinary tea-producing area, not so famous, and not many people are used to making tea soup. Ordinary people do not have this demand, and most people still trade in wood and cloth.

So Li Fu wants to build a tea house here, and he doesn't have to worry about wood at all, or in other words, no matter where he is, he has money in his pocket and spends money, so he doesn't have to worry about materials.

The high mountains and dense forests here also provide natural convenience for some people who don't work.

That's right, it's about robbery, low cost, high profit, and hiding in the mountains after the success. Even if the local government wants to arrest people, facing so many mountains and such dense jungles, they have no way to start.

In the past few days, Dong Jiu has been going out early and returning late, conscientiously exploring the surrounding situation, and then expanding the scope.

This time Li Fu also came out, he had to be more cautious.

Li Fu was waiting in the inn, and he basically couldn't see Dong Jiu during the day.

"Dong Jiu has been asking for two or three days, is there any problem?" Li Fu asked Wu Liangye who was standing aside while eating in the lobby downstairs.

"No problem was found in the city, but the nearby mountains are not very peaceful." Wu Liangye said.

"It's within expectations, so I'm not surprised." Li Fu smiled and said, "I've found out everything. Since we came here for a reason, we can't just do nothing. Besides, if we clean it up, it will be good for us."

"Yes." Wu Liangye nodded.

The servants in the inn set up the food on the tables in the lobby.

"Let them send someone out to eat." Li Fu said.

"Yes."

Wu LiangyeAt night, he went to arrange the shift change.

Although the innkeeper was curious about their group, he didn't dare to ask because of the situation.

There was a room where they took turns to guard, and the luggage of the group was placed in that room.

But there were too many luggages, and the weight of those boxes was not light.

What made them so nervous, could it be that the boxes were full of money?

When this thought came to the innkeeper's mind, he shook his head quickly.

He was doing a serious business, he was running an inn, and it was the best inn in Huizhou City. How could he guess the guests' goods?

The innkeeper and the guys in the inn were indeed very professional, at least in Li Fu's opinion. In the past two days, they just did their duty to serve people, and didn't ask any other questions.

On the third day, someone came from the tea mountain.

It was a steward sent by Li Fu, who came with a local tea farmer.

"My dear."

In Li Fu's room, the steward bowed to Li Fu, and the local tea farmer standing next to him also bowed.

"I know everything you said in your letter. This time I came here with money to build the tea house. I will live here for a while and build the tea house with you." Li Fu said.

If he didn't come in person, the steward might not be able to arrange all these things in the early stage.

After all, the tea business is not easy, and the steward has no reputation outside, and he may not be able to control the situation.

No one asked about his itinerary when he left Chang'an, but after a long time, someone would always smell something different.

If they want to intervene at that time, although they have the upper hand, in terms of foundation, the Jingyang Wangzhai is not as good as other wealthy families.

Production, sales, channels, transportation

Li Fu is just starting out and cannot compare with those big families with deep roots.
