Sihai Trading Company, the largest jewelry dealer in Datang that has risen in recent years, is a cotton cloth merchant.

It completely monopolized the entire cotton cloth business of the Tang Dynasty and the Turks, Tuyuhun and Tubo.

No way, before it appeared, people only raised cotton as a flower.

Unexpectedly, the cloth made of cotton by Sihai Trading Company is thin and warm, sweat-absorbing and breathable, warmer than silk, lighter and softer than linen, but the price is only half of linen, which quickly became popular in Datang and surrounding countries.

And this is only the second largest business of the Four Seas Trading Company.

The real power of the Four Seas Trading Company is in the jewelry and jade industry.

It has a monopoly on the pearl from the South China Sea region, the business of the South Pearl.

It brought jadeite, which is said to have been produced in the country of Pi (Burma), and it became a sensation all over the world.

Most of the mutton fat jade from Hotan also flowed into Datang and surrounding countries in large quantities through the Four Seas Trading Company, and became a luxury item that princes and nobles and wealthy businessmen rushed to buy.

The Four Seas Trading Company became famous for a while and made a lot of money.

There's no way, who let Li Mohan learn mining in his previous life. Some of the famous mines, where they are, and the trend of ore veins, these are the basic lessons of his freshman year.

He just sent the absolute henchmen he had cultivated, and according to the location of the mineral deposit he had drawn, he could just follow the map.

He doesn't have to resort to the system, he has his own livelihood skills.

Looking at Li Mohan in front of him, Li Shimin had mixed feelings in his heart.

No wonder, no wonder this kid is so extravagant!

This kid is obviously rich and rivals the country, okay!

No wonder, no wonder this Lijiazhuang can be built so strongly, regardless of the cost.

It's no wonder that this kid doesn't want to be an official. The little bit of being an official really can't get into his eyes.

After a long time, he is the boss of Sihai Trading Company!

It's such a young bastard!

Ash Nayun was also surprised, it turned out that in recent years, the largest trading firm on the grassland, Sihai Trading Company, turned out to be Li Mohan's.

Cloth, rouge gouache, and all kinds of novel ornaments were sold to the grasslands by the Four Seas Trading Company.

There is even a saying among the women on the grassland: It is your father, brother and husband who feed you, and it is the Four Seas Trading Company that decorates you.

Li Lizhen also thought in her heart: This Li Mohan is not very good at reading, not even a child, but I didn't expect to be so good at doing business! Looking at him as a hanger, he looks flamboyant all day long, and he can't see the appearance of a big boss no matter how you look at it!

This cheap big brother came.

"Hahahaha, it turns out that the virtuous nephew is the boss of the Four Seas Trading Company, which is great! The Four Seas Trading Company is rich all over the world, but no one has seen the true face of the boss of the Four Seas Trading Company, but they didn't expect it to be in front of them. Great, it's really good, now, my Qin Mansion is developed! ”

Li Shimin said loudly, already smiling from ear to ear.

The eldest grandson Wuji also said with an incredible expression: "No wonder, the virtuous nephew doesn't even look at the Datang Mansion, it turns out that you are much richer than the Datang Mansion!" ”

"Where, where"

Li Mohan waved his hand again and again.

Fang Xuanling looked at the young man in front of him, thinking about how to pull this guy into his department. Such a talent, how can he be buried, if he doesn't want to be an official, that's not good, no matter what, he has to be robbed.

But at this moment, he is not the only one who is worried about Li Mohan?

A moment ago, he was still thinking about how to kill the Tang Emperor who was angry for his baby daughter, but at this moment, he was thinking about how to match his daughter with Li Mohan to get a big dowry.

But it seems that this kid doesn't want to be a colt.

It's a bit tricky.

The so-called father is better than a daughter, from Li Shimin's expression when he looked at Li Mohan and himself, Li Lizhi knew that he was going to be sold by his father.

Come on! Dad, you are the son of the Tang Dynasty, is it okay to be reserved in front of a little money? I'm your favorite Changle, so you're going to sell me?

This stinky boy Li Mohan has a smooth tone, looks cheap, and is still illiterate. I don't want to marry this stinky boy! What about the one who said he wanted to marry me to a scholarly family?

Besides, Dad, Li Mohan is still a big carrot, do you know? He has a fiancée, could it be that I will be his concubine?

How is this possible?

It's better to treat him as a buddy.

Ox trucks carrying the treasures of the Tang Mansion were being driven by the townsmen from behind the village.

"I've said everything that needs to be said, let's hurry up and go back to Chang'an with my things."

Li Mohan urged the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Shimin and others.

"Nephew Mo Hanxian, why don't you wait for lunch before leaving?" The eldest grandson Wuji shamelessly said to Li Mohan that he was still hungry for the food of Li Mansion and was reluctant to give up.

Li Mohan looked disgusted,

"Let's go, let's go! Eat a lot here! I'm going to be eaten by you! ”

"Look at your miser!" Li Shimin scolded with a smile, "If you are poor, you will be beggars all over the world!" ”

Fang Xuanling, eldest grandson Wuji and others nodded approvingly.

Li Mohan pushed the eldest grandson Wuji in his hand,

"Hurry up, if you don't leave, the army you brought will attack the city and save people."

The eldest grandson Wuji's old face turned red, and he peeked at Li Shimin, but saw that his brother-in-law looked like he was fine, it seems that he has to carry this pot by himself.

"That's... Virtuous nephew, do you know this? ”

Hum! Li Mohan gave him a roll of his eyes angrily.

"Don't say I didn't tell you, if your people are polite, if you dare to attack the city, don't want a copper plate. I don't know what Li Er's idiot thinks! The Turks can't gnaw on the iron walnuts, and he Li Er has a pair of steel teeth, right? As far as his little thoughts, I don't know? Hum! The heart of a villain is the belly of a gentleman. I, Li Mohan, don't have any big ambitions, I just want to make more money, my wife and children are just hot kangs, if I have a heart of disobedience, what kind of Xuanwu sect does he have the opportunity to do? “

Li Shimin looked at Li Mohan and rolled his eyes.

The eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Li Junxian were so frightened that they quickly lowered their heads and pretended to be deaf.

Li Lizhi looked at Li Mohan's eyes with fire: You bastard, you actually insulted my father to your face! Have you eaten bear's heart leopard gall?

Li Mohan took the hand of the eldest grandson Wuji and went to the city wall, followed by Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others.

Ashina Yun was trapped in the Li Mansion and did not come out with him. Li Mohan didn't want her to know that there were too many things in Li Jiazhuang. It's interracial after all.

When Li Mohan pulled the eldest grandson Wuji to the remote telescope he was driving on the city tower, he taught him how to use it by hand.

The eldest grandson Wuji looked at the people and horses of Hou Junji who clearly appeared in the telescope lens.

The eldest grandson Wuji walked away in a daze, and Li Shimin looked at it in front of the telescope as usual, and he couldn't put it down, but he also felt embarrassed.

Then there are Fang Xuanling, Li Junxian and the curious baby Li Liqing.

This...... Isn't this clairvoyance?

After Li Mohan adjusted the focus, Li Lizhi could even see the beard of Hou Junji, who was riding on a horse five miles away.

His group thought that the people and horses brought behind them were well lurking, but they didn't expect to run naked in front of others from the beginning.

It's so embarrassing, it's all thrown to grandma's house.

Of course, Li Mohan didn't know that these soldiers and horses were mainly to protect "Qin Ce", and thought that they were to protect the army of the eldest grandson Wuji. Therefore, his spearhead was mainly aimed at the eldest grandson Wuji, but not at Li Shimin, who was scolded by him.

Li Mohan took them to the side of the fourteen bed crossbows that had just been installed.

Looking at the crossbow arrows as long and thick as spears, the huge triangular pyramid arrows flashed with cold light.

Li Mohan motioned for the soldiers to try to shoot an arrow.

The wire string that used the pulley assembly was easily pulled apart, and as the shooter pulled the trigger, there was a 'whoosh' sound, and the bolt was already a mile away, and the bolt could be seen deep into the ground through the telescope.

Li Shimin, the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Junxian, and Fang Xuanling were all battle-hardened, and immediately realized what this bed crossbow with a range of one mile and such a powerful strength meant to the siege troops.

This thing is too perverted, isn't it?

Fortunately, I didn't take it with the army.

Maybe this group of people will have to explain to this small city.

A few people felt as if they had walked through a ghost gate.

Somehow, Li Mohan had a special affection for Qin Le's little brother. Maybe it's because this kid is good-looking, he said in his heart.

He took out his binoculars and handed them to her.

"Brother Xian, it's more convenient for you to take this look. Although the clarity is poor. ”

Li Lizhi took over this smaller "clairvoyant" according to her words, and quickly learned how to adjust the focus under the guidance of Li Mohan. Looking at the scenery in the distance, as if it was clearly presented in front of her, she couldn't help but exclaim and admire.

"If you like it, I'll give it to you!"

"Really?" Li Lizhi almost jumped up with joy. Seemingly, she liked the gift.

"If you like it, if you like it, when you return to Chang'an in the future, you can climb high and look far away and see all the beauties of Chang'an!" Li Mohan patted her on the shoulder and said interestingly.

Li Lizhen hurriedly broke free, and said in her heart: Stinky hooligan! Disturbed kindness!

Li Shimin and the eldest grandson Wuji were greedy.

The eldest grandson Wuji once again gave full play to his cheeky specialties and said: "Virtuous nephew, this clairvoyance is good, is there anything for me?" ”

"Nope!" Li Mohan said coldly, turned around and left, and went straight to the city.

I believe you're a ghost! Are you blind? One of the soldiers at the head of your city has one around his neck every few minutes, and you tell me that you don't have one?

The eldest grandson Wuji knows the military value of this clairvoyant, this is a treasure! In any case, if you want to get one back and let the Ministry of Industry copy it, this is related to the Tang Dynasty, so he followed Li Mohan closely behind, and did not forgive him:

"Or, if you buy one, can't your uncle buy yours? You make an offer! ”

"Not for sale! None of my telescopes are superfluous! Li Mohan said angrily, pulling his sleeve and sending it in the direction of the open city gate.

"Get out, get out of here. If you don't talk about it again, those stupid henchmen of yours are going to come and trouble me. I don't want to be a rebel at that idiot of Li Er. You hurry back and tell him to understand, don't waste time here with Young Master Ben, isn't it okay to cooperate well to make money? ”

"In addition, if my intelligence is correct, you tell Li Er that Youzhou Luo Yi is going to rebel, and that is the real rebel. Young Master Ben has no thief heart or thief guts, you go and explain it to Li Er! Lao Tzu gave him all his money, and he could still help him make money, so I would fight Lao Tzu's idea again! Just be his emperor with peace of mind, and he will become the first emperor of the ages. ”

Li Shimin was shocked when he heard this.

"What, Luo Yi is going to rebel? Is this true? Li Shimin and eldest grandson Wuji shouted almost at the same time.

"Yes, that's what my intelligence says. Now, if you have to, you should have two days to start the army. Li Mohan said. It is impossible for him to tell them that he saw this information in the history books, only business intelligence.

"Master Li Zhuang is really a god, so well-informed!" Fang Xuanling admired. Salt making, sugar making, binoculars, bed crossbows, these novelty objects refreshed Fang Xuanling's three views, and made him sincerely admire the young man in front of him.

The eldest grandson Wuji was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

"How can this be? How is it good? Half of what he said was talking to himself, and half of it was telling Li Shimin.

It's really a wave of unevenness.

Just sent away Jieli's army of 200,000.

King Qin's soldiers and horses were all following Jieli's army and moved to the northwest border.

Luo Yi's Youzhou soldiers have always been brave, and most of them are cavalry, with strong mobility. Chang'an now has less than 10,000 old and weak soldiers, how can they resist Luo Yi's tiger and wolf army?

Beads of sweat the size of beans on Li Shimin's forehead also appeared.

Fang Xuanling, who has always been resourceful, frowned tightly and was at a loss.

"Hey, Brother Li, you ...... Is there any way to do it? You see, Zhao Guogong is in such a hurry. Li Lizhen stabbed Li Mohan with her arm.

"How? No! ”

Li Mohan replied indifferently.

"However, Uncle Eldest Sun, you don't have to worry, Young Master Ben pinched his fingers, Luo Yijun would collapse without a fight!"

"Collapse without a fight?" The eldest grandson Wuji scoffed at Li Mohan's words, "You treat you as an immortal, and you still pinch your fingers." Such a military event is not a child's play! ”

Li Mohan looked at the eldest grandson Wuji like a fool and said:

"Now the world has been decided, and the people are at peace. Luo Yi moves against the world and is bound to fail! He Luo Yi has always been mean and unkind, and his subordinates may not be rebellious with him. ”

"Well, so what?" Eldest Sun Wuji continued to ask.

"I don't understand that?! Why is Li Er's side clean with waste like you? Li Mohan said hatefully, pulled the eldest grandson Wuji to the front of an ox cart, and knocked on the big box on the cart.

He didn't notice that Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling, and Li Junxian were about to burn him when they looked at him.

Li Mohan continued:

"What is this, what is this? I'll let you bring this back, you won't use it. I don't believe there is such a thing, you promise a few more official positions, you can't find a few people who want money and don't want to die to cut off Luo Yi's dog's head?! Saying that you are a waste is looking down on you! Don't say you know me in the future, Young Master Ben can't afford to lose that person! ”

"Oh, yes! Sun Tzu's last move in the Art of War, use it! ”

The eldest grandson Wuji suddenly became enlightened, and he didn't care about Li Mohan's rude behavior just now. Patted him on the shoulder and smiled.

"Virtuous nephew! Yes, yes, you're right! Good scolding! ”

With Li Mohan's support, he suddenly felt relieved. Look at Li Shimin, he has already signaled his eyes to follow the stinky boy's plan.

"Uh, that virtuous nephew, look, you are the big boss of the Four Seas Trading Company, and when you leave, don't you give your uncle a small gift or something? For example, what kind of jadeite, sheep fat jade, or something? ”

"Get out!" Li Mohan roared. It's really greedy, not enough, snakes swallow elephants.

"Lao Tzu has a birthday the day after tomorrow, and I don't see any gifts for me from your cheap uncle! You still want me to give you a gift, why are you so big-faced? Li Mohan scolded angrily.

The eldest grandson Wuji was a little embarrassed.

Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling also felt ashamed.

I can't bring anything valuable with me on this micro-service trip, otherwise I will leak my identity. But Li Mohan is a child, they really like it from the bottom of their hearts.

The people also helped to fight the Turks, returned the property extorted by the Turks, gave them a chance to make a fortune, and came up with strategies to help quell the rebellion.

Any credit in this is enough to pay homage to the marquis.

But this child's birthday, this fatherless and motherless orphan's birthday, they have nothing to give.

I'm ashamed to talk about it!

He Li Shimin is the son of heaven of the Tang Dynasty, his Fang Xuanling, eldest grandson Wuji, and Li Junxian are either princes or marquises.

I blindly asked for it, but I couldn't even get a birthday gift!

Shame on you! It's shameless to stay in this place.

"Nephew, I... I didn't know you were going to have a birthday. This time I came in a hurry, and I didn't have anything for you. Otherwise, you can hold this jade pendant, which can be regarded as a little bit of the uncle's heart. The eldest grandson Wuji took out the family heirloom jade pendant he was wearing and handed it to Li Mohan.

Li Mohan shook his head and refused.

"This gift is too expensive for me to ask for. Although I am not short of jade, I can see that Uncle Changsun, this jade must be a family inheritance and a priceless treasure. Young Master Ben, no, the little nephew can't ask for it. ”

Seeing that the eldest grandson Wuji and the others each got on an ox cart, only Li Junxian rode a horse. Li Mohan patted the butt of the car where the eldest grandson Wuji was sitting with his hand.

"Although Young Master Ben doesn't like to pat people's ass, since Uncle Eldest Sun recognizes me as a cheap nephew, I'll take a fart to show respect."

After that, Li Mohan barely squeezed out a smile at the corner of his mouth, pointed to the last two cars, and said to the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Shimin and others:

"In those two carts, there is sugar, salt, and soap that I have prepared for you, and when you go back, you will give a share to the people in the house. I won't bring you any wine, for fear that you will make a mistake on the way. If you really want to drink it, come to the village to drink it the day after tomorrow. ”

Wave goodbye to them.

The ox cart slowly drove out of Lijiazhuang.

Li Mohan's figure standing at the gate of the city slowly became smaller.

Li Lizhi suddenly had a sour nose, couldn't help but shed tears, and said to Li Shimin quietly:

"Father, he's so pitiful!"

"Yes, this child has no father and no mother, it's hard for him to be like this, it's just a lack of discipline!" Li Shimin replied.

But I couldn't help but want to say: he is pitiful, he is so poor that he only has money left. I am more pitiful than he is!

In the distance, Li Mohan's hysterical shout seemed to be heard:

"Hey~ Don't forget to return the cow and cart!"

"This lazy boy!" The eldest grandson Wuji spouted.

Li Shimin stared at the telescope that Li Lizhi hung around his neck.

I sighed in my heart, this harvest is really big.

No, the day after tomorrow, I'm going to come back no matter what!
