Chapter 83: An Le Fang (2nd Update)
Li Chengqian stayed in the Fengtang Commercial Bank for a while, and then went back to the palace, because in the afternoon Li Shimin said that he had something to do with himself, and he had to go back, so he didn't want to find it, and then it would be miserable.
As for Wang Liping and Zheng Ke, they have long been daydreaming, going to buy the so-called big sale, trying to brew wheat dew, and probably they will not find out that they are missing two flavors so quickly.
Also, the two thousand yuan, he asked people to take back to the palace, which is the safest place. In the entire palace, I am afraid that there is no one richer than him.
For this money, he hasn't figured out what to do, no matter what, save it first, it's a big deal to exchange it for points, although it is good to exchange points, but he still has concerns, in case the money is taken away by Li Shimin because of the problem of points, then the source of his money is not easy to say, before the exchange, he has to think of a good way.
With his cleverness, isn't the solution easy?
It's afternoon.
He took Xue Rengui to the Taiji Palace, and at this time, Li Shimin, the queen and many concubines were also there.
"Gao Ming has seen Your Majesty and Her Royal Highness the Queen! I've seen all the concubines! ”
"Hahaha, my son is smart! I'm very happy today, do you know what brought you here today? ”
Li Chengqian saw that Li Shimin was so happy, it must be that the treasury was rich, and Li Shimin's happiness did not seem to be a good thing for him.
Sure enough, in the next conversation, he always felt that he had been trapped.
"Father, what's the pleasure? The child is puzzled! ”
"This month's tax is twice as high as last month's! You know why? ”
Now all industries are waiting to be prospered, and tax revenue is limited, and the sudden surge in taxes shows a problem, that is, there are industries that make money.
"I don't know!"
He collected a lot of taxes, how did Li Chengqian know why, and he didn't collect it!
But judging from the shocked faces of the surrounding concubines, it seemed that this matter had something to do with him.
Is it possible to pretend to be forced once?
"Because of the existence of your tea and ice shop, as well as a Fengtang trading house, and by the way, there is also a flower tea made by Zou Fengchi that is also very popular, and they provide a lot of money for our entire tax revenue, which is a good sign. Gao Ming, Gao Ming, you are really my good son, and you really know how to solve problems for me! ”
Well? Didn't what Li Shimin said come up with himself? How shocking it would be if they knew that these things were their own!
However, now it can't be said, once it is explained thoroughly, Fengtang Commercial Bank does not have to do it, it will inevitably be accepted by Li Shimin, this greedy cheap father, but it is very shameless. If you say take it away, you can take it away, and what you say about your son's is your father's, you can even say this kind of reason, and you don't take into account Li Chengqian's mood at all, how can it be so easy to make money?
"This is still due to my father's good leadership and peaceful and prosperous times, if there is no peace, no matter what you do, you can't do it."
Li Chengqian is right, this is very positive, but it is also a positive praise of Li Shimin, this is an exposition of the facts, but Li Shimin is very happy to listen to it, he is happy, and he will be better off.
"So, I reward you! With 10,000 more money a month, your life is much better than that of other princes! ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, but this is what a child should do!"
This...... That's too little, isn't it? made Li Chengqian very depressed, but it was better than nothing, and it was better to use the money to reward Xue Rengui, with an extra 10,000 yuan a month to supplement the family.
"Yes, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really fortunate to have such an awareness!"
Following this voice, it is very familiar, isn't that an old acquaintance Wang Guifei?
Li Chengqian had a hunch that the next words that came out of Wang Guifei's mouth would not be good words.
"Your Majesty, I see that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is so smart, and he should make more contributions to my Datang, I heard that there is a place called Anle Fang near the south gate of Chang'an City, and the perennial tax is very low. I think Your Majesty why doesn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince go to Anle Fang to manage for a period of time, maybe it is possible to increase taxes! ”
"Wang Guifei, you're not right, Anlefang is a well-known poor area in Chang'an City, it doesn't seem appropriate to let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince go there, right?"
It was Wei Guifei who spoke, she looked as beautiful as a fairy, and she was also one of Li Shimin's favorite concubines.
She stood up for Li Chengqian at this time, and directly gained a wave of favor from Li Chengqian.
At the same time, at this family meeting, he already knew that Wang Guifei might not let him go, so he created an Anle Fang to test him.
A very simple truth is to let you govern there, do it well, this is a matter of course, but not good? That's your prince's incompetence! When the time comes, I will join you again, and let Li Shimin be disappointed in you.
Wang Guifei's wishful thinking is very loud.
How could Empress Eldest Sun let her do this?
So he said: "Anlefang is a mixed place, I'm afraid that Gao Ming will be in danger." He's still a kid! ”
Other concubines also said the same, Wang Guifei still didn't give up, she got involved with Li Shimin.
"However, this is a good opportunity for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to exercise and lay the foundation for governing the country in the future, don't you think? Your Majesty, what do you think? ”
"It depends on Gao Ming's choice. It's all up to him! ”
Li Shimin showed a clear attitude, how could Li Chengqian not know, he definitely wanted to go by himself.
So he raised his posture and said: "Father, as the crown prince, I should want to contribute to Datang, and I am confident that Anle Fang will become one of the top ten places within two months!" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was directly surprised, but they didn't expect Li Chengqian to agree.
And they were full of words, and their eyes were full of shock and doubt......
Two months? I'm afraid it won't work for two years!
This full sense of pretense has scored two hundred points for Li Chengqian, although it is not much, but it is better than nothing.
Empress Eldest Sun said, "My son, don't you think about it again?" ”
Wang Guifei sneered, and then pretended: "I believe that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely be able to." ”
In fact, Li Chengqian has long been despised thousands of times in his heart.
The more Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian, the more satisfied he became.
"Hahaha, worthy of being my son Li Shimin, worthy of being the prince of the Tang Dynasty! At that time, I will have people cooperate with you and fully support you in the renovation of Anle Fang. ”
"Father, don't worry. In less than two months, Anle Fang is bound to change dramatically. ”
Now, he has enough reasons to leave this imperial city, and he can make a lot of money from it.
As for Wang Guifei, she sneered on the side, because this Anle Fang is not as good as its name, and now it is very chaotic.
"Good! With your words, I can rest assured, you can prepare well in the next few days, and start in three days! ”
"Yes! Father! ”
When Li Chengqian was about to leave, Empress Eldest Sun came over and said: "My son, you are too risky to do this, do you know that if you don't do it well, I'm afraid that someone will make a hindrance, isn't it okay to find trouble?" ”
She hoped that Li Chengqian would do nothing, but he didn't think so.
"Don't worry, Auntie, it won't!"
His firm gaze made Empress Eldest Sun directly dumbfounded, and this gaze made her feel that he would definitely complete it.
Some people may say that Li Chengqian will call His Majesty Li Shimin for a while, and he will feel awkward for a while, because this involves the issue of the occasion, and the formal occasion is called His Majesty, like a family gathering, and he is directly called father.
