0292 Leave money but not people

Although Li Tong had a lot of imagination about the Dou family's hidden heritage, after listening to Dou Qi's explanation, he was still greatly surprised.

Right now, he has just started with the large windfall that Wu Youyi has saved hard, and he doesn't really attach so much importance to floating wealth and the like. Of course, the more goods and the better, but the need is far less urgent than before.

Now he needs resources that floating money can't buy, or that takes time to accumulate. So when he heard Dou Qi say that his family had more than 2,000 craftsmen hidden between Longshan, Li Tong was really surprised.

In this era, craftsmen with mature skills are definitely a scarce resource. Therefore, there are more than 100,000 people in the clothing society, but the number of craftsmen is scarce. Anyone who has a skill can either survive, or they will be controlled by the government and a wealthy sect like the Dou family, and they will hardly be dispersed on a large scale.

Previously, because the productivity of the middle and high-end craftsmen was really limited, a large number of hemp goods were accumulated, so that Li Tong had to think of other ways to digest these hemp goods.

If he wants to engage in printing, he also needs to borrow people from the Caotang Temple. Although he can also cultivate by himself, it is not something that can be miraculous in the short term, and his time is not so calm.

More than 2,000 craftsmen, he is going to decide! If it can be digested, it is definitely the most important harvest of this dispute with the Dou family, with these high-end productivity, it can also make the entire organization of the old clothing society undergo qualitative changes.

However, this Dou family is really bold, and there are so many manpower hidden in it quietly. It is no exaggeration to say that if it were in troubled times, more than 2,000 shade households would have become the foundation of dominance and domination!

However, this is not enough to say that the Dou family really has wolf ambitions, when their Li family first conquered the world, after Gaozu Li Yuan entered Chang'an, he was both happy and worried, and the flood of rewards was simply like it couldn't be passed, and even the lord system collapsed directly, even if he knew that the big clan under his command had such a small move, he would naturally not be held accountable.

In the following decades, although the big families in Guanzhong had ups and downs, the Dou family was relatively stable on the whole, and the relationship with the royal family was always harmonious.

"Your family still has such a secret arrangement, the Dou family really deserves to be a wealthy family in the long-standing pass, it's really surprising."

Hearing the young king say this, Dou Qi's face showed joy again, and he turned to say respectfully: "As long as the king can tolerate the previous sins and give me vitality, all these characters will be used up by the king!" ”

"Untie him first."

Li Tong raised his hand and said to Yang Siqiao, although Yang Siqiao was a little reluctant, he still stepped forward to untie the rope tied to Dou Qi's body.

Without the support of the hall pillars, Dou Qi directly collapsed on the ground, but before he could breathe, he stepped forward on his knees and kowtowed: "My family is from a family background, and my loyalty is unswerving, so I provoke the jealousy and harm of the group in this perverse world." Before that, he was short-witted and scheming, disturbing the king. Now I was shocked to see that the king Zufeng was majestic, hiding his decision, and he felt that he was guilty, and he had a bad thought, which would harm the future of the society! ”

Speaking of this, he is already a handful of snot and tears.

As for Li Tong in the hall, he rarely heard others praise him so beautifully, and he could barely hold it, and his face suddenly pulled down and said angrily: "I followed it with my heart, do you think I am greedy for the power of your family's goods?" If I'm just short-sighted, why do I need to throw Wu Youyi's wealth into the air? ”

"Don't dare, don't dare! The king has a broad heart, his hopes lie in the world, and his plan lies in the society, how can he be obsessed with the selfishness of a clan and a clan! ”

After hearing this, Dou Qi hurriedly kowtowed and said: "The servant made this statement, not to seek favor with heavy coins, but at the moment, there is no other plan to dedicate to the king." The king has the ambition to lie on the salary, and the servant wishes to be attached to the back, and become an ancestor! ”

Li Tong was even happier when he heard this, pointed at Dou Qi and snorted coldly: "You are just afraid of greed for a while, even I myself have no intention of chasing down my ancestors, so you are willing to follow with all your heart?" Not to mention that there are still old grudges between you and me, now there are people in the national industry, and they still have a lot to do with your family? Do you believe your sophistry? ”

Dou Qi's face was cold again, and he said with a pestle: "The king is already carrying a heavy load, and he is not cautious and cannot last long. The servant knows that it is difficult to win trust, but he is not afraid of analysis in his heart. The situation is pressing, the servant is now a living dead, the clan is removed, humanity has abandoned me, if you want to stand under the sky again, you must ask for a dangerous deed, and you are with the king! ”

"As for the relationship with His Royal Highness the Emperor, there are many relatives and disciples in the world to maintain it, and there is no need for me, an outcast. And the emperor's heir is now hidden in the forbidden capital of the gods, and the old ministers of the house slaves cannot be seen yet, even if there is any plan, it can only be a false plan. The country has changed, and the throne has changed hands, which is an unprecedented evil thing since ancient times. It is the great wish of the people of the world to set things right, and those who have aspirations are brave enough to do so, so why do you need to hold on to any worldly tricks? ”

Speaking of this, Dou Qicai raised his head again, looked at the young king with an eager face, and said: "The perverse changes in this world, is the sin in the common people?" After the emperor Bintian, the incumbent repeatedly lost his choice, and indulged in evil step by step, and the people of the world have hope! It's just that Tang En's inheritance is endless, and there is nothing to send, so he will vote for the candidate who is not worthy of virtue and talent! Although the king is still hidden in the bottom of the matter and is not affected by the situation, he can also use this to nourish his minions, save his ambition, and act when the time comes! ”

This guy is quite able to say that he has a small mouth, which makes Li Tong a little enthusiastic, and at the same time he can't help but feel a little emotional, Guanlongmen can occupy an important position in the long river of history, and it is really not covered.

Needless to say, the craftsmanship of their Li family is full of incitement, and it should be passed down from their ancestors. Perhaps the two ancestors also had such a scene dialogue at a certain moment.

Dou Qi saw that the young king was just silent, and his mood was also very worried. It's not that he doesn't think that the young king doesn't have the courage to raise so many armor soldiers silently, if the young king really hadn't moved such thoughts, he really wanted to cut off his head and use it as a stool for people to sit on.

But he also knew that he had offended the young king very ruthlessly, and it was not easy to gain trust, and it was difficult without a little actual effort.

With a little power in his heart, Dou Qicai kowtowed again and said: "Can you ask the king to give me a pen and paper, and the servants will offer it in the hall." ”

"Give it to him."

Li Tong raised his hand and said.

Soon, Yang Siqiao found a pen and paper in the grange and sent it, pressed Dou Qi on the seat far away from the king, and stared at him with wide eyes.

Dou Qi picked up the pen and wrote, and soon the paper was full of handwriting, and asked Yang Siqiao to present it to the king, and said: "What is recorded on the paper is all the hidden wealth and goods of my family in the suburbs of Xijing. The servant is now under the control of this, and there is no other kind of talent to contribute, but this hope can be forgiven. ”

Li Tong took the paper and glanced at it casually, then crumpled the paper into a ball and threw it in the corner, and sneered: "I'm willing to give you a chance, are you still deceiving me for ignorance?" ”

Seeing this, Dou Qi hurriedly turned over and bowed again: "Although the location of these hidden goods is known to many family members, they all require special signaling to be called. The servant must try his best to cooperate with the king, collect the goods as soon as possible, and never dare to hide his secrets! ”

"Xijing is close to the ground, will your family take care of it less? Especially after you don't go to Sichuan, you will inevitably be more suspicious, if you know that the goods are lost, can you guess that the situation has changed? You guy is still treacherous, he delivers goods when he says, but in fact he sends a message, and when your family governor changes, he will definitely spread the message far away, so that the people in the distant border can take precautions as soon as possible. ”

"The king really misunderstood me, I just, I just took confidence to take advantage of this, so I chose this to collect evidence...... If the king doesn't believe me, I'm willing to give the secrets of the distant people again, but it takes too long to collect evidence......"

When Dou Qi heard that the young king was so suspicious, he was also bitter in his heart, and he was busy and kowtowed to explain.

"I have time, but you don't have it. If you waste it again, I don't know how long you'll live! ”

Li Tong groaned for a while, knocked on the case and said: "Although I don't fetish material profits, but at the moment, it is difficult for you to confess elsewhere." In this way, your family has a deep foundation in Shuzhong, and there must be many secrets in it. In detail, I will consider whether to keep you or not after collecting evidence. ”

After Dou Qi heard this, he was busy writing on the desk, occasionally stopping to think carefully, and kept writing three full volumes of paper.

After writing, Li Tong motioned for Yang Siqiao to take the paper away, and then said, "Write again." ”

Dou Qi's expression froze, but he didn't dare to refuse, and he was sick again. After writing it twice, Li Tong didn't ask for more, a good memory is better than a bad pen, if this guy really wants to hide the traitor, writing it twice is enough to remember.

He shook Dou Qi's two confessions in his hand, and said with a smile: "Now your life is no longer with you and me." Later, I will send people to Shu to verify them one by one, and if what is said is true, your life will be saved. As for the adventures you mentioned, they are too far away, so let's just talk about the present. Killing you alone is not enough to please me, but leaving you alive will help me. I hope you survive, so let's wait for the aftermath. ”

When Dou Qi heard this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then ate a little bit of food with a nervous expression, and then he was ordered by the young king to transfer him to another place and detain him.

"The king, do you really want to keep him?"

Yang Siqiao said in a muffled voice on the side, he blamed himself for his dereliction of duty for a long time for the previous assassination, and he can't let go of it now.

Li Tong sneered when he heard this: "What do you leave him for?" After the previous matter was verified, he went straight to Longshan to recruit those shaded households, and killed them. ”

No wonder Li Tong is ruthless, after talking with this Dou Qi, he has a feeling of looking in the mirror in his heart, they are both good at selling their ancestral business, and there must be many hidden dangers if they stay.

What he needs is just the foundation accumulated by the Dou family, as for this Dou Qi, although he also has some evil talents, he is a little heavy with his own skill points, and he is not as good as playing with himself.

It's not that he doesn't have the capacity to tolerate people, but it's not worth paying for this Dou Qi, and if he instigates a few words, he will be a dragon and phoenix chick? Even your allies dislike you for being too big to be worthless.

With this kind of energy, it's not good for me to go back to my senses to cultivate Yao Chong and Song Jing?

Although this is a bit unbelievable, this Dou Qi is not a resentment, he really killed him and put it into action, no matter how he dealt with it, Li Tong had no psychological burden.

"Pick up that piece of paper and tell Tian Shao'an to quickly arrange someone to verify it, and do it immediately!"

After a slight pause, Li Tong pointed to the paper ball he threw in the corner and said.

"But the king didn't mean to worry about ......"

Yang Siqiao picked up the paper ball after hearing this, and said a little puzzled.

"Worried? What's there to worry about? Once Dou Meiyu enters Beijing, she will immediately let Wannian County arrest people! His family has no leader, and he is still in the mood to take care of remote affairs? ”
