The holy decree of the Military Aircraft Department came down quickly, and there were not many courtiers who objected to this, although everyone who understood it could see that this was Li Jun's right to cut the prime minister, but Xiao Wangzhi himself did not speak, and the rest of the people did not dare to talk more.

Xiao Wangzhi still does his job as always, the matter of the eldest princess has no impact on him, and the emperor's power reduction has no impact on him, this mentality has to be admired, Zhang An once said such a sentence at the banquet: "The old prime minister is worthy of being a disciple of the Huang family, and with this mentality, we are far from it." ”

For Zhang An's many words, Li Jun gave a warning of a fine for half a year, and the courtiers were immediately honest when they saw this, but they had a trace of sympathy for Xiao Wangzhi in their hearts, until one day Li Jun personally drove Xiao Wangzhi to Yushan, all sympathy disappeared, and was replaced by envy and jealousy, and the Son of Heaven personally drove for him, what a great honor it should be for a courtier......

Recently, the capital has been eventful, and the four major events of Yangtan Victory, King Qi Fengwang, newspapers, and military aircraft have happened at the same time within a month, so Li Jun has also been busy with the group, and he has long forgotten everything about meeting Zhuoshan.

No matter how powerful Zhuo Shan is, he is just a businessman, so when Li Jun thinks of Zhuo Shan again, it has been half a month later, but Zhuo Shan in the capital is difficult to sleep, and he is a businessman, and he does not hesitate to take risks to cooperate with the people of the Legalists, just to be able to catch the emperor's line and get rid of the predicament.

Now it's good, there is no news from the emperor's side, Bao Qing and Zhao Yan, the two cool officials, are standing aside and staring at him, Zhuo Shan believes that as long as he shows a little timidity, he will be swallowed by those two cool officials, and there is not even scum left.

So Zhuo Shan began to invest money everywhere to inquire about Li Jun's preferences, and finally found out from a palace maid who served the queen that now the emperor has a habit, that is, he will spend half an hour every day drinking tea and reading the newspaper.

Hearing the news, Zhuo Shan took it upon himself and prepared to put his daughter's appearance in the newspaper, Zhuo Shan was very confident in his daughter's appearance, and in order to sell it at a good price in the end, Zhuo Shan invested a lot of money in his daughter.

Zhuo Shan gambled right again this time, when Jin Yiwei came out to collect newspapers that afternoon, Zhuo Shan bought off Jin Yiwei's people with a lot of money and sent the newspaper with his daughter's face into the palace.

On this day, when Li Jun was reading the newspaper, he saw it, and I have to say, don't look at Zhuoshan's fat head and big ears, his daughter is really beautiful, Li Jun is interested, since someone sent his sister thousands of miles away, he didn't accept it, so Li Jun inscribed two lines of poetry on it: There is a beautiful woman in the north, peerless and independent, one cares about the city, and then the country.

When He Shen saw it on the side, he immediately understood what Li Jun meant, and immediately walked down with the newspaper and ordered, "Hurry up and find this woman." ”

"No." A small chamberlain said yes and left immediately.

Seeing that He Shen was so sensible, Li Jun nodded with relief, hummed a little song and went to the Imperial Garden, recently Jin Shan'er has been making a fuss about returning to China, and he has to be appeased......

Li Jun's appeasement was enough to appease the night, and when he went to the court the next day, he was strong and airless, and when he returned to Daming Palace, Li Jun immediately took off his clothes and went into the bath.

Several palace maids immediately set up melons, fruits, snacks and the like, and then two palace maids wearing gauze clothes also went into the water, one grabbed one of Li Jun's arms and massaged it, at this time He Shen whispered outside through the screen: "Your Majesty, I have found out that this woman is the only daughter of Zhuo Shan, a big businessman in Shuzhong, named Zhuo Wen." ”

Li Jun waved his hand and said, "I know, I want to go to Ganquan Palace this afternoon, you can arrange it." ”

"The old slave obeys."

Li Jun slept beautifully, and then went to Ganquan Palace with a light car, and when he arrived outside Ganquan Palace, he saw a waiter saying a few words in He Shen's ear, He Shen nodded and came to Li Jun's side and said obscenely: "Your Majesty, the people have already arranged it, I don't know if you will see your father or your daughter first?" ”

Li Jun scolded with a smile: "Old thing, other things are procrastinating, you are quite concerned about this kind of thing, call Zhuo Shan first, Zhuo Shan I only heard his name, I didn't see him, but I was curious." ”

"No, the old slave will arrange it now."

Soon Li Jun saw Zhuo Shan in the dormitory of Ganquan Palace, and Zhuo Shan saw Li Jun and immediately knelt down tremblingly and said: "Cao Min Zhuo Shan see Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live, long live." ”

Li Jun waved his hand and said, "Zhuo Shan, right?" The largest ironware merchant in Shu, I am also famous. ”

"Grass people are not talented, but they just have small assets." Zhuo Shan immediately replied.

Li Jun asked with a smile: "I have collected your iron ore, do you blame me?" ”

"The grass people don't dare, the grass people don't dare, Your Majesty is the honor of the grass people." Zhuo Shan, who had just stood up, was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and shouted.

Li Jun plucked out his ears and said: "Okay, don't shout, what kind of system, you can answer honestly about what I asked below, if you don't tell the truth again, you will not blame me for being ruthless." ”

"Your Majesty, please ask, the grass people must know everything." Zhuo Shan cautiously replied.

Li Jun coughed and said, "Honestly, apart from the iron business, what other business do you have now?" ”

Zhuo Shan immediately replied: "There is also a slave business, and the minister plans to involve the whaling business in the future, please fulfill it for Your Majesty." ”

Li Jun nodded with satisfaction after listening, no matter what else, this guy is quite in line with his own policy, he wants salt and iron official camps, Zhuo Shan handed over the two iron mines without hesitation, and the slave trade, newspapers, and whaling business are all promoted by himself, just by virtue of this, Zhuo Shan is qualified to let himself meet in person, not to mention that he also has a beautiful daughter.

Looking at Zhuo Shan's expectant eyes, Li Jun shook his head and said: "Let's forget about whaling first, so many marquis are not enough, so let's do it, the slave hunting group in the southwest has already arranged for General Ji Meng to do it, but General Ji Meng is an official of the imperial court after all, and it is not appropriate to do this in the long run, I will tell General Ji Meng, if you have more contact with him, the southwest is still promising." ”

"No, the grass people obey."

Li Jun picked up Zhuo Shan and said affectionately: "Okay, don't be an old grass folk and grass people in the future, I feel uncomfortable listening to it, He Shen, give an order, seal Zhuowen as Jieyu, and Zhuoshan as An Shanbo." ”

"The old slave obeys."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhuo Shan said excitedly.

After Li Jun went to the apse, only He Shen and Zhuo Shan were left in the house, and He Shen arched his hand to Zhuo Shan and said, "Congratulations, uncle." ”

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, Da Changqiu has passed the award." Zhuo Shan said modestly as he carefully put a bag of pearls into He Shen's sleeve.

He Shen weighed it and felt that the weight was still very sufficient, so he said with a smile on his face: "Uncle, it's so polite." ”

"Yes, if there is anything in the future, I still need Da Changqiu to teach me a lot, the little girl is also in the palace, and I hope Da Changqiu will take care of it." Zhuo Shan sneered.

He Shen looked left and right and then whispered: "Don't worry, uncle, with Jieyu's appearance, she will definitely be very favored." ”

"Thank you, sir."

"By the way, uncle, there's one thing I don't know whether to say or not?"

"Da Changqiu, please speak, Zhuo Mou listens."

"The old slave has been serving His Majesty for so many years, and he found that His Majesty was a little unhappy in the past few days, so the old slave asked, His Majesty said that he is now ready to re-excavate the plank road from Shuzhong to Hanzhong, although he has transferred 30,000 war slaves, but the manpower is still insufficient, and if the uncle wants to contribute to His Majesty, he may wish to think of a way in this regard." He Shen said meaningfully.

Zhuo Shan immediately understood, and bowed to He Shen Changji and said, "Thank you Da Changqiu for reminding me, Zhuo will go back now to share the worries of the monarch's father." ”

"Haha, Uncle is really a wonderful person." He Shen said with a laugh.

After He Shen sent Zhuo Shan away, he returned to the apse and found that Li Jun did not go to look for Zhuo Wen, who had just been named Jieyu, but was reading a book with a book, Li Jun heard the footsteps and raised his head and said, "Da Changqiu, are it all done?" What is Zhuoshan's reaction? ”

"I heard that it is for His Majesty, Uncle Zhuo is very happy." He Shen didn't dare to slack off and replied immediately.

Li Jun smiled after hearing this, stood up and stretched his waist and said with a smile: "Let's go, take me to meet the beauty." ”

"Your Majesty, please come with the old slave." He Shen said obscenely.

The first time I saw Zhuo Wen, I gave people a feeling of being shocked, although she was the daughter of a businessman, but there was no vulgarity at all, but it gave people a feeling of Qinglian coming out of the water.

Li Jun walked up to Zhuo Wen, Zhuo Wen lowered his head shyly, Li Jun raised Zhuo Wen's chin with his fingers and asked with a smile, "Follow me, are you voluntary?" ”

"The concubine is willing." Zhuo Wen looked directly into Li Jun's eyes and said.

Li Jun laughed and said, "Haha, wait for you to retreat." A group of palace maids, including He Shen, retreated.

After a storm, Li Jun hugged Zhuo Wen with satisfaction, and his heart was triumphant, Li Jun finally knew why all dynasties liked to raise some businessmen, on the one hand, businessmen are more interesting, as long as you want, whether it is beauty, wealth or even land, they will have a way to help you get it, the means may be a little dirty, but it will definitely make you satisfied.

Second, businessmen make heavy profits and give them ten times the profits, they dare to sell their parents and relatives, as long as the profits are in place, there is nothing they dare not sell, so there is no need to invest any feelings in this kind of person, if they don't do well, they can just kill them, and there will be no psychological shadow.

The last point is also the most important point, although the merchants have the lowest status in the Shinong industry and commerce, they play a panacea, it doesn't matter without them, the state apparatus is just a little slow, but with it, it is very likely to create miracles, just like the later generations of Europe, it is because of the prosperity of maritime trade, giving merchants a good stage, suddenly from a backward feudal imperial society to a developed capitalist society.
