Chapter 134: The Poor Dagger
Chen Zhengtai said very seriously, and he looked very aggrieved.
And Li Tai was a little dumbfounded, because this matter was indeed Chen Zhengtai's responsibility, and from beginning to end, he couldn't find anything to blame for Chen Zhengtai.
Can you blame someone for coming up with an amazing yield of potatoes?
Can you blame him for selling land?
He's selling land, but everyone is selling it too.
Li Tai didn't show any impatience, and still smiled: "Xiao Wang didn't mean to blame Senior Brother, Xiao Wang meant ...... Senior brother thinks that if the land price plummets like this, will it be good for the world? ”
Chen Zhengtai thought for a while and said: "Of course there is no benefit, not to say that it is good for the world, just say that it is not good for our Chen family, our Chen family also has a lot of land, is it possible that the price of this land has fallen, and our Chen family can still sell it well?" ”
What is the ...... is even more clear about Chen Zhengtai's relationship.
You see, our Chen family also suffered a loss, and suffered a big loss, you are embarrassed to wronged me?
All the ministers looked at Li Tai, in fact, many people probably realized that this was related to the Chen family, but if you think about it carefully, the Chen family's motives and his methods are invulnerable, and they can't find any loopholes.
Of course...... For Li Tai, he didn't come to find fault with Chen Zhengtai.
Li Tai is not Li Chengqian, and when Li Chengqian sees that anyone has made a mistake, he must point to his nose and scold.
And Li Tai is different, he doesn't care about these, and he is good at forbearance, although he is young, he is still very decent: "Since Senior Brother also thinks that this is not beneficial to the world, then I have heard for a long time that Senior Brother is good at management, and I want to come...... There must be a good way to deal with it, I wonder if the senior brother can maintain the land price? ”
Really......
Many people secretly gave Li Tai a thumbs up in their hearts, His Royal Highness King Yue is really a virtuous king, it is useless to say anything now, and it is the most important thing to let this Chen Zhengtai solve this matter.
Chen Zhengtai did not hesitate, and said: "Please rest assured, junior brother, I guess it won't take long for the matter to be resolved." ”
Li Tai said: "Solution? When will it be resolved? ”
"This ......"
Chen Zhengtai looked like he had been forced into a corner.
And Li Tai pressed step by step: "If you continue to let it go like this, land prices will continue to plummet, and when will it be resolved?" Senior brother, now that many people have no way to live, do they still hope for the future? ”
"I'll figure it out, for a year at most, or a few months......"
Li Tai smiled: "If you say so, it is inevitable that the senior brother will be suspected of prevarication." The senior brother can wait, but the people can't wait. ”
Speaking......
Li Tai's face suddenly turned solemn, and just when everyone was still suspicious, he suddenly ...... Li Tai bowed in the direction of Chen Zhengtai.
This move surprised almost everyone.
Li Tai is a nobleman, although he is commensurate with Chen Zhengtai's brother, but he is a prince after all.
And the salute is almost the highest etiquette, the average courtier in ordinary days, even if he sees the emperor, do not need to kneel and worship, only in the sacrifice to the ancestors, heaven and earth, or the son to the father, this big ceremony, will not be abrupt.
Can ...... now Li Tai actually knelt down in front of Chen Zhengtai.
This hand...... No one thought of it.
Li Shimin's face ...... It was already gloomy, and he seemed to be angry.
Zhang Qian and the others were so frightened that they didn't dare to come out.
Chen Zhengtai's reaction was a beat slower, but he still turned sideways without hesitation and avoided Li Tai's salute.
Forthwith...... These countless officials, including Wei Xuanzhen, were all touched at this moment.
Although they usually admired Li Tai and praised Li Tai, it was only because Li Tai was more stable and studious than Li Chengqian, and they felt that Li Tai was a virtuous gentleman.
Can ...... now
But seeing Li Tai said with tears in his eyes: "Senior brother, the people are already poor and miserable, there is no way to live, the price of land has plummeted so much, Xiao Wang is only afraid of shaking the country's foundation, how can the world be peaceful if it goes on like this?" My father tried his best to walk on thin ice every day, so that the people of the world could live in peace, if the senior brother had some methods, how could he still be leisurely and leisurely, and so on? Xiao Wang is today for his father and the people of the world, and if he asks for a senior brother, he will ask the senior brother to help him in any way, if not...... Xiao Wang couldn't kneel for a long time. ”
Chen Zhengtai: "......"
Let's be honest...... Although he knows that people surnamed Li have a talent for acting, Chen Zhengtai can be regarded as an eye-opener for Li Tai who can polish his acting skills to this extent.
Really...... The dragon species is the dragon species, but the skill points seem to be a little crooked.
He was almost certain that if what happened today could be recorded in history, Li Tai's image would be incomparably taller.
However, in view of the fact that in history, Li Chengqian lost the status of the crown prince because of rebellion, Li Shimin originally wanted to make Li Tai the crown prince, and this Li Tai, who is good at acting skills, in order to show his high demeanor, actually promised Li Shimin that he would kill his son and pass the throne to his younger brother Li Zhi after a hundred years, showing his friendship for his brother Li Zhi!
So much so that Li Shimin felt that he seemed to have acted a little too much, and finally excluded him from the heir!
So today, in front of the monarchs and ministers, Li Tai suddenly came out like this, and it is not surprising at all.
But this kind of behavior made Chen Zhengtai very disgusted, but for the ministers, especially Wei Xuanzhen, the meaning was different.
His Royal Highness the King of Yue did not hesitate to do so for the sake of us, this is a great kindness, and the Wei family should remember it from generation to generation.
Many people were moved, and they didn't know if they were really moved, or if they were just pretending, at least...... There was a faint sound of weeping in this temple, probably ...... I feel sorry for the loss.
This kneeling suddenly forced Chen Zhengtai to the edge of the corner.
Because...... There was no way back for him.
Chen Zhengtai immediately said: "Senior brother, how can you be like this, you are going to torture me, junior brother, hurry up, hurry up." ”
Li Chengqian was also shocked by Li Tai's sassy operation, and he was dumbfounded and speechless!
Of course, he knew that his brother was selling his reputation, but he never imagined that people could still play at such a height, so that Li Chengqian wanted to pat his head, he knew that this was the case, and he could be alone.
Li Shimin's eyes became a slit, and his gaze wandered, like a rock.
Zhang Qian, who was standing on the side, seemed to feel something, he subconsciously took a small step back, and the silent breath emitted from Li Shimin's body actually made him feel suffocated.
Li Taizheng said: "If the senior brother doesn't agree, Xiao Wang won't get up." ”
Chen Zhengtai was very embarrassed and said: "For a while, how do you ask me to solve this matter?" ”
This is clearly a scoundrel.
Chen Zhengtai avoided his body, looking speechless.
He said bitterly: "So please give me a little time, and think about everything in the long run......"
Li Tai even said with a little sadness: "Senior brother...... The people are no longer alive, are they waiting? ”
"Then dare to ask junior brother, what do you teach me to do?"
"Please take back the land to be sold immediately. No more ...... can be sold"
Chen Zhengtai sighed: "Let's go, the junior and junior brothers have all said this, what else can I do?" That's it. ”
Li Tai saw Chen Zhengtai agree, his eyes were happy, but obviously, now the whole world is selling land, even if the Chen family does not sell the land, the land of the previous Huangzhuang will not be sold, but for the current market, it is actually useless.
Obviously, everyone is not happy with this.
"Besides......" Li Tai continued, "Xiao Wang has heard that the Chen family has money, especially the paper and white salt business, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a daily gold fight, so I implore Senior Brother to immediately take out the money and buy the land on the market to stabilize the land price." ”
When he said this, he was a little embarrassed.
Oh, fools know that land is worthless, and you ask someone to buy a lot of land at this time, just because their family is rich?
Their family has money, does it have anything to do with you?
Aren't you making people do the wrongs?
It's just an insult to people's intelligence.
But Wei Xuanzhen and the others listened, but their spirits were greatly lifted, His Royal Highness King Yue is really wise!
Now that land is being sold everywhere, there are no buyers, isn't this Chen Zhengtai the biggest buyer in the world? As long as he makes a move, there is hope for the land in everyone's hands to be freed, and everyone can come out of the predicament in front of them!
So Wei Xuanzhen hurriedly echoed: "Yes, yes, yes...... What His Royal Highness King Yue said is extremely true. ”
Chen Zhengtai couldn't help but say: "Your Highness, what you said is wrong, my Chen family has money, but I, Chen Zhengtai, am not wronged, isn't this a forced buying and selling?" ”
Li Tai said very seriously: "Please senior brother to make a living in the world, no matter what, please help." ”
Chen Zhengtai continued to shake his head: "Aren't you trying to force our Chen family to death?" No, no. ”
Li Tai said: "Then you might as well set a reserve price for the Chen family to buy, and the price falls to the floor price, how about the Chen family buy it?" Anyway, senior brother...... Now is not the time to worry about money. If the senior brother didn't agree, Xiao Wang would have to kneel down. ”
Li Shimin's face is even more interesting.
Because he saw that the ministers seemed to be moved, and they all looked at his son with admiration.
This hand borrowed flowers to offer Buddha, and the play was really perfect.
King Yue just moved his mouth and did not lose anything, but he gained the reputation of the world, and Chen Zhengtai was forced to spend a lot of money to buy those hot lands, and the clans could take this opportunity to free themselves from the land.
Li Shimin was not only observing Li Tai, but also observing Li Chengqian, but he saw that Li Chengqian's face was extremely unsightly, and there were faint signs of temper attacks.
Originally, at this time, Li Shimin should have stood up, but at this time, Li Shimin was surprisingly calm, he was like a bystander, it seemed that everyone's thoughts and actions in this hall were unreservedly exposed to his eyes, and his thoughts, no one could speculate, even Zhang Qian didn't know what His Majesty was hiding.
At this time, Chen Zhengtai sighed and said, "Okay, it's just ...... This reserve price must not be high, junior brother, get up quickly, if you don't get up again, I, Chen Zhengtai, have no choice but to thank the world with death. ”
Li Tai's face was suddenly happy, and then he stood up and said to Chen Zhengtai: "Thank you, senior brother." ”
Chen Zhengtai didn't say anything, looking very reluctant.
A lot of the ministers are excited, no matter what, there is finally a fool and a wronged boss to take over, this Chen family is rich...... This is the consensus of all.
Ha ha...... King Yue's hand is really beautiful, it is simply our savior.
Li Tai then saluted Li Shimin and said: "The son of the son of ten thousand deaths, in front of his father and the emperor, made this big bow to the senior brother, the son of the minister exceeded the etiquette system, this is the negligence of the son, I implore the father and the emperor to condemn the son." ”
Li Shimin knocked his fist on the imperial case, and suddenly said in a strange tone: "You really plead with your senior brother for the sake of the people of the world?" ”
Now that things are going the way he thought, Li Tai's heart has fallen to the ground, and he seems to realize that he will soon be praised by the world, and he enjoys this feeling very much, so he said without hesitation: "Yes." ”
Li Shimin responded to Li Tai with a strange smile, and then nodded: "Wu'er really deserves to be a virtuous king." ”
Li Tai still maintained his humility and politeness, and said, "Erchen doesn't dare." ”
Li Shimin didn't say anything more, only glanced at Chen Zhengtai, and then got up: "I'm tired, let's retire." ”
Li Shimin had no joy or anger on his face, left this sentence for everyone to speculate, and then walked and left the Taiji Hall with the eunuchs.
As soon as Li Shimin left, many people in the hall couldn't help but let out a happy voice.
Li Tai was soon surrounded by Wei Xuanzhen and others.
But Fang Xuanling stood aside like an old monk, he didn't say anything, and took the lead to leave.
The eldest grandson Wuji glanced at his nephew, and then looked at another nephew, Li Chengqian, shook his head, and didn't join in the excitement, and left the hall with Fang Xuanling.
Li Chengqian is now on fire in his belly, and he wants to rush up and pick up Li Tai, a guy who scolds him fiercely.
But Chen Zhengtai pulled his long sleeves in time and motioned for him to leave.
……
Wait out of the Tai Chi Palace.
Li Chengqian snorted and said angrily: "Look at him like that......"
"Senior brother, don't say it." Chen Zhengtai said easily: "Senior Brother Yue begged me like this, how could I not satisfy him?" From now on, I'm going to reclaim the land, huh...... Set a reserve price, they will sell if they like to sell, and they will pull down if they don't sell. ”
Li Chengqian bared his teeth and said: "You don't see it, they are forcing you to comply, where is there such a cheap thing in the world, you can swallow this breath, but you can't swallow this breath." ”
Chen Zhengtai said with a smile: "This is because ...... They've jumped over the wall, ah, damn, damn, I shouldn't have scolded people for being dogs, I'm so uncivilized, I'm guilty. ”
Chen Zhengtai slapped his mouth, and then said: "In terms of the art of war, we have blocked all their roads, and now they have become trapped beasts, this trapped beast is the most difficult to provoke, once you don't give them any hope, they really want to bite, so there is a cloud in the art of war, called: Circumference three is missing one." It means that you have to give someone a way to go, otherwise, I will sleep with my brother all day, and I will not be able to guarantee my safety. Okay, take it when you see it, since they jumped off the wall in a hurry, then ...... It's time for me to see the dagger. ”
Li Chengqian's eyes widened and said, "See you in the picture? Where's your dagger? ”
"For example, wouldn't it be better for you to do everything?" Chen Zhengtai rolled his eyes and shook his head!
In fact, in terms of IQ, to be honest, Li Chengqian is really too far behind Li Tai, and Li Tai's disadvantage is that he is too famous, so that he goes too far and looks false. And Li Chengqian, in a sense, has a straightforward side in his temperament, of course, being too straightforward will make people want to shoot him to death many times.
The Chen family is rich.
There is no doubt about that.
Thereupon......
Erpigou began to post notices and began to expropriate land in a unified manner!
It's just the price, but it's frighteningly low, three runs through one acre, regardless of the quality of the land, all of them are collected.
As soon as the news came out, Chang'an shook.
Of course, this price is outrageously low, but the biggest advantage here is that it does not distinguish between the advantages and disadvantages of the land!
Although this inferior land used to cost more than ten or twenty yuan, but now the price of land has fallen so much that it does not give people any hope at all, and those land that is not fertile obviously lose the most if they are kept, so it seems that the price is low, but in fact, it is ...... For many, this is not necessarily a bad thing.
The whole Erpigou has begun to get busy.
The first to come was the Wei family, and they sent people to send a large number of land deeds! Good land, of course, is kept by the Wei family themselves, but there is not much fertile land after all, and the bad land can be exchanged for real money now, so naturally we have to hurry.
There have even begun to be rumors, saying that the Chen family's money is counted, and it is impossible to buy land without restrictions, and whoever sells it first and gets the money will be considered to be in the pocket, otherwise, even if he wants to sell it, he will not be able to sell it.
In this way, everyone was in a hurry, and they all rushed to the Chen family to sell land.
The ordinary people, where are they qualified to compete for the front of the world, and the people who are in the dark flock to the front, and those who are in front are those who have a large number.
The third uncle, who is extremely mobile, personally led many people and set up a special place for trading.
The children of the clan came with the title deed, and after the land was determined, there were Yongzhou scribes beside them, and they painted a pledge in front of them.
Of course...... Money is not paid instantly, after all, with so much money, how can it be delivered immediately? It is often the case that an IOU is written first and agreed to pick it up within a month.
On this point, the Wei family has no objection!
On the one hand, they don't want to delay the transaction, and the best outcome is to close it immediately, so as not to have too many dreams at night.
On the other hand, after all, the Chen family has a big business and is also a decent person, plus this matter was decided in front of the emperor, so they don't dare to repay the debt.
They exchanged countless land deeds for IOUs.
It was as if he had gotten the real money all of a sudden, and he was immediately satisfied. The mouth continued to sigh: "It's really thanks to His Royal Highness King Yue, His Royal Highness King Yue loves the people like a son, such a virtuous king is rare to see in the world." ”
The third uncle is so angry that he is half dead, it is our Chen family who kindly accepts your family's land, you King Xie Yue?
Seemingly...... Yue Wang's reputation is not a good thing...... The prince's temperament is not good, could it be that this destiny is in Li Zhi, the ninth son of the emperor who has just been born......
