Chapter 226: The Great Transformation of the Living
The construction team is the bottom of the box of Erpigou, which is an important guarantee for the Chen family to gain a foothold in Chang'an.
This is no joke.
Now the entire Erpigou is carrying out projects everywhere, from building workshops to building shops, houses, and even the task of building the East Palace in the future.
In the beginning, it has grown from hundreds to thousands.
And now...... The construction team is Chen Zhengtai's fourth uncle in charge.
Chen Zhengtai has always believed that construction is an important guarantee to change an era.
Historically, I don't know how many dynasties have perished because of large-scale projects, among which the Yuan Dynasty stands out.
The fundamental reason for this is that you have to mobilize hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of people to do one thing together, and so many people, each process is different, some dig the foundation, some carry out wood work, some are responsible for pasting the wall, various processes, as many as dozens of kinds, how to make them coordinate with each other, and how to promote each process at the same time, this is based on the experience of countless failures, and at the same time slowly cultivate a large number of backbones to accumulate.
The construction team of Erpigou is different from the previous one.
What the imperial court wants to repair, the Ministry of Industry takes the lead, and then finds some craftsmen, and then recruits some laborers and then starts work. Personnel mainly come from conscription, and there is a lot of change, this year it is Zhang San, next year it will be Li Si, the advantage of this approach is to save money, but the disadvantage is that it is difficult to train a group of backbones.
But this disadvantage is enough of a pit!
And the Chen family is here...... It is given money, which can ensure that all construction personnel can completely leave agriculture and work full-time.
Chen Zhengtai now needs all kinds of big projects, the bigger the project, the better, and slowly let the construction team accumulate more experience from continuous failures.
At this time, he took the map with great interest and showed the two princesses which location was good, what the specifications of the princess's mansion looked like, how bad the craftsmanship of the Ministry of Industry was, what means they had to be greedy for ink, and how powerful the construction team of my Erpigou was.
Princess Sui'an said: "Senior brother, don't say it so fast, I think I should write it down...... If not...... When I went back to talk to my father, I was afraid that I would forget. ”
Princess Changle said: "I wrote it down, and when the time comes, Sister doesn't have to worry, I've thought about it." My princess's mansion will also be built here in the future, why don't we live next to each other, okay? ”
Princess Sui'an lost her mind for a short time, and finally said, "Oh. ”
Chen Zhengtai settled a big stone in his heart, and then looked at Princess Changle: "I heard that Senior Sister Changle is going to divorce the eldest grandson's family?" ”
Princess Changle said very calmly: "Didn't Senior Brother say that close relatives can't get married? And when I saw the eldest grandson Chong's stupid head, I told the queen mother. ”
Chen Zhengtai couldn't help but sigh faintly in his heart, and then said sadly: "But...... The eldest grandson Shibo is now looking for trouble with me every day, I have no grievances with him, but now I have completely offended him, not to mention that my wife and he are sisters and brothers, you can make me miserable. ”
Princess Sui'an looked at Princess Changle and said, "Senior brother, don't worry, Sister Changle married into the eldest grandson's family, and this grudge will be resolved." ”
Princess Changle was silent.
After a long time, Princess Changle said: "Why haven't you seen the prince recently, I used to see him always here, and I heard that there was no one else in the East Palace." ”
Chen Zhengtai looked up at the sky and said embarrassedly: "Senior brother...... I don't know where he went...... A man like him who sees the head but does not see the end......... Uh......"
…………
And His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the mouth of Princess Changle was hiding in the alley at this time, happily putting handfuls of copper coins into a large cloth bag.
The cloth bag was heavy and extremely heavy, and when he heard the sound of copper coins entering the bag, Li Chengqian felt as if he had heard the sound of heaven, which was wonderful.
Then...... He took out a suspicious-looking copper coin from the broken bowl, squinted his eyes, and then put it in his mouth, and with a bite of his teeth, the copper coin broke.
Li Chengqian suddenly showed an angry face, and said angrily: "It's really a loss of conscience, giving copper coins to do good deeds, and actually adulterating fake money in it, and now people are really bad." ”
"Rengui, go buy two steamed cakes." took twelve copper coins, and Li Chengqian gave them to Xue Rengui.
Xue Rengui held the money in his hand, looked at Li Chengqian with a dull look, and said for a long time: "His Royal Highness the Prince, you said that you took me to eat roast chicken......
Li Chengqian was in a hurry, tied up the mouth of the big cloth bag, and said angrily: "You know how difficult it is to eat, how difficult it is to make some money, you still want to eat roast chicken." You see you sitting there, like a stake, people give money, and you don't know how to say thank you, or say a good man, the prince Wandai, and you will be stupid all day long, only know how to catch lice on your body and play. That's it, still eat roast chicken? There is a reward for paying, you know no! ”
Xue Rengui: "......"
"Don't talk back, go buy steamed cakes, and work in the afternoon, haven't you noticed that there are two more groups of beggars around here recently? These dog things still want to rob the orphan's business, but ...... Don't be afraid of them, our location is better, and we are younger, so we still have an advantage over them. Those stupid beggars, who don't know that the people who have passed here in the past, are not just charity, but want to satisfy their psychology of doing good deeds and seeking good rewards, they only know that they want money and pretend to be miserable. Wait a minute...... I'm going to find a charcoal pen and write some words on it about your parents are dead, your wife is gone, and your family is in the middle of the road......"
Xue Rengui was anxious and said loudly: "Your parents are dead." ”
"You're bold!" Li Chengqian said angrily: "Do you want to kill the king? ”
Xue Rengui was deflated all of a sudden: "......"
Li Chengqian immediately became bitter again.
He felt that he was worried about it now, not only to analyze the people passing by on the street, to figure out the psychology of each person, but also to study the location, competitors, and more importantly, there was a pig teammate who was not open-minded.
Li Chengqian sighed and said, "The problem is not here at all. If you want people to pay for it, you have to make people empathize. What is empathy, look at ......"
Li Chengqian curled up with his fingers, and then his fingers popped out and hit Xue Rengui's head, as if he felt that this would make Xue Rengui smarter.
Only then did he continue: "The people who come and go here are not rich and noble, but rich and noble, they are all in chariots and horses. The people who come to this temple are either good men and women...... Even if the family has encountered difficulties recently, they have little money and some money, but they are not very rich. Think about it, when you meet someone in trouble, you pass by at this time, and you look down, ah, this person is so miserable, everyone in the family is dead, and the original family is also solid, and suddenly fell into the abyss. What will they think? They will want to ...... I'm in trouble right now, or my child is sick, or I'm in other troubles, and my family is pretty good, but if I can't get through this hurdle, I'll probably have to be like these two poor boys. ”
"At this time, they will sympathize with you, and when they see you, they will think of their future children, and they will be terrified and anxious, and they will think, maybe in the future, my children will be like this, and so ...... The Buddha will see their kindness and bless them, and they will definitely be able to tide themselves over the difficulties. ”
Xue Rengui nodded and sighed.
Li Chengqian was afraid to pat him on the head: "You are already very smart, just because I am too smart, it is reasonable that you can't keep up, but it doesn't matter, now that the two of us depend on each other, I will take care of you." ”
After that, he began to grit his teeth: "Hmph, unlike your eldest brother, who slipped away after eating and drinking, fortunately I have a skill, otherwise, we will be really unlucky." ”
Xue Rengui said dissatisfiedly: "Big brother naturally has his thoughts, he is not that kind of person. ”
Li Chengqian was silent for a moment, in fact, he had been away for seven or eight days, and he didn't know what kind of cheap psychology this was, at least ...... Li Chengqian thought in his heart that it was better than following this elm head.
If Xue Rengui were Chen Zhengtai, I am afraid that he would not have to persuade him every day what to do, with Chen Zhengtai's cleverness, he would have already taken off this begging thing without his own allocation.
If so, then it is a strong alliance to participate in the grand event!
Think of it this way...... Really...... It's exciting.
"Okay, don't be verbose, go buy steamed cakes, I'll go look for charcoal, those damn beggars, they still want to fight with Lone." With stupid people, Li Chengqian feels so tired!
…………
Chen Zhengtai felt that something was wrong.
It's been ten days, and the prince still hasn't heard from him?
At first he thought ...... According to Li Chengqian's temperament, there will definitely be no problem in insisting on ten days and eight days, at most ten days, this guy should have some news.
But now......
Chen Zhengtai was still not at ease after all, so he asked people to start searching near Erpigou.
The result of the search is ...... There are no such two teenagers at all.
That's weird.
It stands to reason that with Xue Rengui here, there shouldn't be any danger.
But these two living people are very easy to identify, but the merchants in the vicinity have asked around, except for hearing that someone wanted to go to a certain shop seven or eight days ago to be the shopkeeper, there is no news at all.
Seems...... Disappeared into thin air.
These two guys...... I won't be reduced to working as a coolie in Juxian County.
But based on Chen Zhengtai's understanding of Li Chengqian, this guy ...... Probably not the kind of person who is willing to do coolies.
The reason why he gambled against Li Chengqian was that Chen Zhengtai just hoped that Li Chengqian would not live in the deep palace all day long, and that he would take advantage of his young age at this time to sharpen himself among the people and go deep into the grassroots.
But...... What about people?
Now Your Majesty and Princess Changle have talked about this, if you don't find out this guy again, I'm afraid that I will have to go through the gang, how will I explain it then?
