Seeing the people coming clearly, everyone hurriedly got up and saluted, and said, "His Royal Highness King Yue." ”

The person who came was Li Tai, and he was not alone, he was followed by several, because his obesity blocked his vision, and from the perspective of everyone in the private room, he looked like a person.

Li Tai came in with his stomach shaking, returned the salute in the direction of the eldest grandson Wuji, and nodded to the others, saying: "Uncle, elders, there is no need to be polite, today I came to do things for the eldest brother, our business is important, and the number of courtesies will be waived." ”

Everyone looked at each other, wondering in their hearts, what big brother, what business? We, with His Royal Highness the King of Yue, what business can we do?

The eldest grandson Wuji is Li Tai's uncle, so he was better to speak, frowning and asking, "Qingque, the eldest brother you are talking about, is it His Royal Highness the Prince?" What business do you have to do with me? Who are these people you have brought with you? ”

Li Tai smiled and said: "Uncle misunderstood, my imperial brother is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and my eldest brother is Li Mu, the Marquis of Zhulu-"

"His Royal Highness King Yue is cautious!" The eldest grandson Wuji hurriedly interrupted Li Tai's words, and said: "You are the son of the dragon and the grandson of the dragon, how can you call Li Mu the eldest brother, this is not polite." ”

Li Tai smiled: "Uncle is too worried, in front of my father, we also call it so, and my father has allowed it." ”

"This ......" Eldest Sun Wuji was secretly frightened, but he didn't say much. Hearing Li Tai say that he was doing things for Li Mu, he couldn't help beating a drum in his heart, so he had to ask, "Why didn't Li Mu come?" ”

Li Tai didn't answer, and said with some displeasure: "Is my uncle so hospitable?" I waited for a while. ”

Wang Jue hurriedly said: "Hurry up and add dishes and chopsticks, and move chairs quickly!" ”

The waiter in charge of serving in the private room counted the number of people, moved a few more chairs, and Li Tai led people to sit down before he spoke: "Big brother asked me to tell you on my behalf, he is a simple and simple person, and he always inevitably suffers." This time, he has already taken the money to eliminate the disaster, and he also admits it. Don't seek any benefits from profit, just don't have any branches. In the future, it is better to have less contact, so as not to bring him in again when the next time Yushi is impeached. ”

Li Tai said while looking at everyone's faces, the eldest grandson Wuji is his uncle after all, and he still has to be careful, otherwise it will be difficult for his mother to explain.

Everyone was ridiculed like this, and they were somewhat embarrassed. But I felt ashamed, and I couldn't refute anything, so I had to pinch my nose and admit it. The eldest grandson Wuji and Wang Jue glanced at each other, and they both saw each other's helplessness, and the eldest grandson Wuji spoke: "Li Mu's meaning, I will understand, but it is not him who asked His Highness to come down, what is the intention?" ”

Li Tai smiled and said, "Uncle, don't worry, let me introduce these people first." ”

Everyone followed what Li Tai was pointing at.

"This is Lang Zhongyu Wengui of the Ministry of Works, and he will be responsible for supervising the quality of the road construction project."

Yu Wengui looked at these characters in front of him, any one of them was a member of the third grade, he was a small Ministry of Works, where did he dare to speak, got up tremblingly, and bowed cautiously and carefully.

"Overseer?" The eldest grandson Wuji frowned and said, "The road hasn't started to be repaired yet, how can I supervise the work?" Besides, why did he Li Mu send overseers? ”

"Uncle, don't worry, I'll explain when I'm done." Li Tai pointed to another person and said, "This is Lu Wenfeng in Yubu Langzhong, who will serve as an 'advisor' in the process of road construction." ”

Wang Jue was puzzled: "What is a consultant?" ”

Li Tai enjoyed the feeling of answering questions, raised his hand and stroked his non-existent beard, and said, "The so-called consultant is a new word invented by the eldest brother. That is to say, in the process of building roads, if there is anything you don't understand, Lu Langzhong can help solve it. You have not built the road, the road pays attention to local conditions, different sections, local materials, in order to save money, food and manpower, Yu Department to investigate the geography of mountains and rivers, the minerals, stones, soil and landforms of various places have a detailed understanding, with the help of Lu Langzhong, the road will be twice the result with half the effort. ”

Wang Jue really didn't understand this, but he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, in his opinion, building the road was already his own business, why did Li Mu still intervene at this time, what was he going to do?

"This last one," Li Tai pointed to the last middle-aged man, and said with a smile: "This is the account office of my house, who has studied the "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" and the latest "Four Operational Algorithms", and is good at bookkeeping. ”

"Accounts?" The eldest grandson Wuji frowned and said, "His Royal Highness King Yue, what do you mean by bringing the account room?" ”

"That's what Big Brother means." Li Tai explained with a smile: "The eldest brother said that road construction involves money and food, and the two of them are easy to be criticized by people such as Wang Jingze and others. So let me make an account, two more out of an account, when the road is officially built, and then the Ministry of Civil Affairs will make an account, and the three accounts will keep accounts together, and only the right ones can be counted. The figures are calculated in this way and can be used as a reference for the collection of tolls in the future. ”

"The eldest brother said that he was scolded and scared."

Eldest Sun Wuji's face was already displeased, but he calmed down and asked again: "Then why is His Highness involved in it?" ”

Li Tai was not in a hurry, and said: "Uncle doesn't know yet, I have been approved by my father and the emperor, and I have worshiped my eldest brother as a teacher." My eldest brother supported me in compiling the "Chronicles of the Universe", just in time for the construction of roads, so he asked me to participate in it, which can be regarded as practice. ”

"Chronicles?" The eldest grandson Wuji is very sensitive to political information, the prince repairs books, and it is still a geographical map, what does this mean?

Wang Jue also keenly discovered the clue, hesitated for a moment, and asked carefully: "Then the prince has a word about this matter——"

"The royal brother and the eldest brother went out of the city to go on a safari, and the eldest brother said that he would teach the imperial brother a set of military exercises."

Among the people present, most of them were military generals, and they couldn't help but laugh dumbly when they heard this. You Li Mu are a genius in business, but how can it be so easy to lead troops to war? You also taught the prince to play soldiers, which really makes people laugh off their big teeth.

The eldest grandson Wuji thought about it in his heart for a while, and decided that he couldn't give Li Mu this face. When it comes to road construction, there are many things that can't be so clear. If Li Mu is allowed to participate in this way, plus the nail of King Yue, there will be a lot of inconvenience in the future. Thinking like this, the eldest grandson Wuji sank his face and said, "His Royal Highness King Yue, building roads is not child's play, you should act cautiously." Li Mu didn't discuss with us, so he sent some overseer——"

"What my uncle meant, my nephew understood." Li Tai didn't wait for the eldest grandson Wuji to finish speaking, and then interrupted him, secretly surprised in his heart, the eldest brother was really like a god.

The eldest grandson Wuji was interrupted, a little displeased, and asked, "What do you understand?" ”

Li Tai still looked smiling, and said, "Uncle just doesn't want the Ministry of Industry to interfere, and the eldest brother has already expected it." The eldest brother said that if the uncle didn't want the Ministry of Industry to intervene, the Ministry of Industry would not interfere, but the words had to be said in front, if the Ministry of Industry was not allowed to intervene at this time, the relationship of the matter would be cut off. ”

"What's that called?" Eldest Sun Wuji's temper was finally provoked, and he said angrily: "Li Mu is too arrogant, without him, we won't be able to build roads?" Thou shalt tell him, Thou shalt tell him, and thou shalt not need him—"

"Uncle Guo!" Wang Jue hurriedly called out to the eldest grandson Wuji, watched him turn around, and whispered: "Don't talk to death, Uncle Guo, we haven't built the road." ”

"What's wrong with not repairing it, isn't it just building roads? If you have money and food, you can just fix it, but can you still fix it? ”

"If it was really that simple, with Li Mu's cleverness, would he say such a thing? When he said this, there must be a hidden danger. Wang Jue was tortured by Li Mu several times, and he was already afraid of him, so he pulled his eldest grandson Wuji and muttered in a low voice: "Auxiliary, forgot what you and I said yesterday?" This road, if you don't repair it, you can't repair it, since we are willing to pay for the money and food, what is the difference between who supervises the work, let him come, let's be happy, but don't have something happen in the future, the money and food will be put in and cause a commotion! ”

"But this kid is too arrogant!"

"Oh, arrogance is arrogance, subject to others, what can be done?" Wang Jue pointed to his eye sockets and said, "I've been beaten, this has just gone down!" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji gritted his teeth, Wu Zi was still unwilling, and said: "Li Mu is not an official of the Ministry of Industry now, did he say that he will transfer the Ministry of Labor Langzhong and Yu Langzhong?" ”

Li Tai grinned and said, "Why don't you ask your father." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji was choked, and he knew with his toes what the result would be if he asked. Li Mu gave another 100,000 yuan, which can be said to be red and purple in front of Li Shimin, how can it be said that it doesn't count.

Eldest Sun Chong couldn't help but say: "Qingque, don't forget, let's get closer, Li Mu is an outsider after all." ”

When Li Tai heard this, he said: "Cousin, don't you forget, the prince of heaven and earth, you worshiped the eldest brother earlier than me, but you slandered the teacher behind your back, do you still look like a disciple?" Big brother is a genius and a genius, and his wisdom is as vast as a sea of smoke, you don't want to serve left and right, learn more skills, and participate in these flies and dogs all day long, copper smelling things, and your future achievements, I think that's it, embarrassing and useful! ”

"Qingque, you!"

"Good words are against the ear, cousin, don't mind."

Eldest Sun Chong didn't dare to quarrel with Li Tai in the end, gritted his teeth, endured it, but became more and more angry in his heart. But Li Tai's words reminded the eldest grandson Wuji. He suddenly found that he had fallen into a misunderstanding, according to the agreement reached with Wang Jue yesterday, the benefits obtained by Taiyuan Road belong to the Taiyuan Wang family, and have little to do with the Changsun family, so why offend Li Mu for the Taiyuan Wang family?

should be reversed, support Li Mu, let him do experiments on the Taiyuan Wang family, while he will wait and see the changes, analyze the pros and cons, and wait until the right side of Xiulong can avoid risks and take advantage of the benefits.

Thinking like this, the eldest grandson Wuji woke up, glanced at the eldest grandson Chong, and said: "What Qingque said is very true, you are Li Mu's disciple, you should respect the teacher, how can you slander the teacher behind your back?" You don't want to eat, go to the suburbs to accompany your master on a safari and serve left and right. ”

The eldest grandson Chong was a little confused: "Father, father? ”

"Don't go yet!" The eldest grandson Wuji glared fiercely, turned his face and said to Li Tai with a smile: "Qingque has grown up and has seen extraordinary, my uncle is pleased, come here, serve wine!" Rejoice today, drink hard! ”
