Chapter 685: Tea Ceremony
Coming to the hall with leisurely steps, looking at the elders sitting in a room, Li Dongyang's head hurts, there are so many people, how long does he have to kneel.
Fortunately, this kind of brain sore didn't hurt a few times, and after kneeling the old Zhenguo Gong and Zhen Guogong, Li Dongyang was not allowed to kneel for the rest.
In their hearts, Dongyang is a fairy-like person, how can they kneel down for these ordinary people, it will break the longevity.
Li Dongyang likes this statement very much, it's not that he is not filial, but he doesn't like to kneel, he can give them gold, silver, jewelry and even pills, but he doesn't like to kneel.
This is related to Li Dongyang's education, he grew up in the era of peace when everyone was equal, and only watched people kneel on TV.
So Fengyang also followed the light, only knelt down for his grandfather and father-in-law, and then he didn't have to kneel, but he received a bunch of red envelopes.
After the tea, Lin took Fengyang to the side hall to chat, leaving this place to the big men in the mansion to let them talk about things.
Lao Zhen Guogong told Shi Keyan about the twists and turns, and then asked, "Yang'er, what do you think about this matter?" ”
"It's a trivial matter, they want to ban it, I earn less, and the treasury will naturally be less, and in the end, it's not necessarily who loses the most."
Li Dongyang pouted, he is a good businessman who abides by the law, he never evades taxes, and the more money he makes, the more money the treasury collects.
The emperor is really going to ban alcohol, it's a big deal not to do the business of Long Yuanguo, besides, people who really want to drink will naturally have channels to buy it, but it is just that they will spend a higher price.
"Aren't you the one who has the most to lose?" Li Changhui asked, but he knew that taxes only accounted for 10% of income, so how to calculate it, Dongyang would lose more.
"Of course not, Long Yuanguo won't let me sell it, I can sell it to Wu Kingdom, Tianxuan Kingdom, Mobei and overseas, as long as the wine is brewed, I never worry about selling."
Li Dongyang is quite confident, besides, he also opened a new winery in Wu State, or cooperate with the royal family of Wu State, and let Long Yuanguo buy it from Wu State at a high price when the time comes, hehe!
Thinking of that picture, Li Dongyang felt that the emperor would be angry to death, but it had nothing to do with him whether he was angry or not, anyway, his feelings for Long Yuanguo were not deep.
Since he appeared in Dragon City, he paid more and gained less, no matter how he counted, the emperor treated him badly, even if he was against Long Yuanguo, Li Dongyang did not feel a little guilty.
Seeing that Li Dongyang didn't care, everyone didn't say anything anymore, the fact is what can they say, the wine shop is Li Dongyang's industry.
It is Li Dongyang's business to earn more and less, Li Dongyang is willing to give a part to the public middle school, that is his filial piety, and he can't say anything if he doesn't take them.
And where the brewed wine is sold, they have no right to point fingers, so Li Dongyang is not in a hurry, they are not in a hurry, and they are not in a hurry, in the end, they are not the talkers.
Later, the old Zhenguo Gong asked the meaning behind this book, and Li Dongyang's opinion was similar to Li Changrong's, and they all felt that the emperor was a sign that he was going to attack the Zhenguo Mansion.
It's just that when and by what means we don't know for the time being.
The longer the Li family stays in Longcheng, the more dangerous it is for everyone, Li Dongyang proposed to let Zhenguo Gong submit a petition, and the Li family withdrew from Longcheng.
As for how the emperor fights with the four kings, that's their business, don't involve the Li family, the title of this Zhenguo Duke is not kept, and this title is of little use to the Li family.
With their current strength, the imperial power does not have much restraint on them, and they are willing to submit to the royal family for face, and the royal family is a fart if they don't give face.
Li Dongyang said very politely, someone actually nodded in approval, Li Dongyang looked at it straightly, it seems that the Li family is not as loyal as they advertise.
After the matter was discussed, Li Dongyang took Fengyang back, Fengyang lay down in the new house to rest, Li Dongyang called Li Er to the front and asked in detail.
Then he ordered them to monitor everywhere, and in addition to monitoring the four kings, there was one more person, and that person was the four princes.
Since he met the four princes yesterday, Li Dongyang feels that this person is not simple, and the painting dye problem that appeared at the palace banquet last time is very likely to be from the hands of the four princes.
It's just that the four princes are not shrewd enough, he shouldn't do it to the four people at the same time, he should only move one or two, and then let the four kings fight at the palace banquet, that's a good show.
Li Er ordered his subordinates to arrange it immediately, and then reported Li Tao's situation, Li Tao had already left the Zhenguo Mansion, and first went to the small courtyard to ask to see Xiao Shuifeng, but unfortunately Xiao Shuifeng was not there.
Then Li Tao was admitted to the hospital, and the injuries on his body were too serious to treat the dead.
mentioned that Li Tao begged for a big return, Li Dongyang pouted for a while, that guy has malicious intentions towards the Li family, and he still wants to take advantage of the Li family, who is he a fool.
Not to mention that Da Huan Dan is priceless, even if it is a worthless Chinese cabbage, Li Dongyang will not be cheap Li Tao.
"What about Zhao Lezhi's situation?" Li Dongyang asked casually. When Li Tao was mentioned, Zhao Lezhi came to mind, and I didn't know how the woman was now.
Zhao Lezhi has fallen out of favor with Li Tao, Li Tao thought that his dirty disease was infected by Zhao Lezhi, and almost strangled her, and then never went to Li Xiang's mansion again.
The stewardship of Li Xiang's house has returned to Li Xiang's hands, and Li Xiang's current pleasure is to abuse Zhao Lezhi, beat him eight times a day, and Zhao Lezhi, who abuses him every day, dies and comes back to life. ”
Li Er briefly talked about Zhao Lezhi's current life, Li Dongyang sneered after hearing it, Zhao Lezhi is doing, it is impossible for her to turn over at Li Xiang's place.
"The master behind Zhao Lezhi didn't save her?" The question was full of mockery.
Li Er hooked his lips and replied: "Zhao Lezhi has lost the use value of Rui Wang, hooking up with Li Tao is her last value, and now that this value is gone, how can Rui Wang save him." ”
"Actually, it's not the first time that Zhao Lezhi has been abandoned by King Rui, when she couldn't enter the Zhenguo Mansion, she had already been abandoned once, but unfortunately she was too stupid to see it."
Li Dongyang calmly summed up, he didn't sympathize with Zhao Lezhi at all, and the most important thing was that the woman dared to anger him, which made Li Dongyang very unhappy.
"Zhao Lezhi's people can be withdrawn, that woman won't live long." Li Dongyang said, drawing a termination charm for Zhao Lezhi's life.
Li Er responded and continued to report on other situations, Li Dongyang listened and analyzed, and all the movements of all parties in Longcheng were under control.
Rui Wang's Mansion, Mu Xiuqi is discussing the next step with Rui Wang, since he has planted the seeds of doubt in the emperor's heart, he naturally wants to water it.
King Rui learned to be obedient this time, and actually obeyed Mu Xiuqi's arrangement in everything, and did not continue to put forward his plan, but it made Mu Xiuqi much easier, and he didn't have to plan anymore and deal with King Rui at the same time.
In the palace, the emperor listened to the news reported by the shadow guard, his face turned blue and purple, and these news made him understand that the Zhenguo Mansion was very ambitious, and he must cut off the power of the Zhenguo Gong as soon as possible.
