It's not that the veteran doesn't care about politics, but he can't care too much about politics.

If these generals, who have a very high reputation in the army, are too enthusiastic about the affairs of the court, Li Shimin should be worried. No matter how broad-minded the king is, he will be suspicious, so a group of veterans such as Cheng Biting Jin and Li Ji learned not to dictate state affairs, and pestle in the golden hall of the court every day to be a group of quiet old men.

From ancient times to the present, politics has always been something that civil officials play, and only they are the most proficient in playing, such as Li Shimin's rebuilding of the Daming Palace, Wei Zheng can ruthlessly knock his forehead into blood in front of the monarch and ministers, and use a tragic situation that does not hurt his life to trigger the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military rebellion against the faint monarch. Stirring up nonsense and making a matter that is obviously reasonable into unreasonableness.

Therefore, it is right that military generals do not mix with politics, except for wars, and at other times let civilian officials throw their heads and spill blood.

Li Su and Cheng Yanjin also have the same idea, the difference is that Li Su is not qualified to get involved, a small county, just an adult, who in the court takes his words seriously?

Everyone is an honest person who does not mix with politics, and they just drink and have fun when they sit together.

In the front hall of Cheng's house, Li Su rarely took the initiative to pick up the lacquer ear cup, and bit Jin Yao to Cheng Yao: "Uncle Cheng, let's not talk about state affairs, just talk about Fengyue, the kid is full of drinks, you ...... Don't be casual, just do it. ”

After a glass of wine, Li Su's eyebrows, eyes and nose were all wrinkled, and he only felt that his stomach was on fire, spicy and painful.

The Cheng family is not particular, since the invention of the five-step pour, I have never seen other wine in the Cheng family, will you die if you make a few pots of Sanle pulp?

Li Su toasted. Cheng Yanjin didn't even bother to be casual, squinted his eyes and sneered contemptuously: "Cowardice!" 'Don't talk about state affairs', the country was fought by His Majesty and the old man's gang of martial artists, why can't they talk about it? It's still 'Fengyue', I haven't had sex with my aunt after three or four days of marriage, what do you have to say about the old man? ”

"Huh?" Li Su's face was full of blood. Grief and indignation.

Can't survive, there are secret agents from Cheng Mansion at home? How did he know about such a secret thing?

"How did Uncle Cheng know?"

Cheng Yanjin glanced at him again: "How do I know?" You Uncle Niu and Uncle Li, they all know, isn't it just for you to sleep when your mother-in-law asks for it? What is the saying of becoming a relative and not having a room? I don't need to let my delicate aunt go, I don't even dare to go home, I sleep alone in the firearms bureau every day, and I still have the face to talk to the old man about Fengyue......"

Li Su's eyes blinked, and he instantly understood.

Xu Jingzong! This old bastard! Tomorrow I will go to the Firearms Bureau and hang him on a tree to smoke!

Li Su straightened his waist and said with a straight face: "Uncle Cheng, you and the kid are both important ministers of the court. Let's talk about state affairs......"

Cheng Yanjin's expression became even more contemptuous: "Phew! The milky boy has not dried up, and he is also a 'heavy minister', the old man has a fart with you to talk about state affairs, if you can't drink the wine, get out of here, send more green vegetables to the old man in the future, and then get some real ones, isn't there a cow that occasionally breaks a leg on your Zhuangzi? Ming broke his head for the old man, and the old man didn't want much. Half of the meat is enough, roll quickly. ”

"Yes, yes. The kid quits...... But there are really no cows that broke their legs. ”

Cheng bit Jin smiled angrily: "Goods to protect calves, get out, remember, rebuilding Daming Palace is something that should be discussed in the court, you little baby must not participate." Otherwise, you will be burned. ”

"Uncle Cheng, don't worry, the kid is not stupid......"

**************************************************************

Spring is about to begin, the weather is still very cold, I can't feel any spring breath, and the spring of the twelfth year of Zhenguan is belated.

In this cold weather. The Li family ushered in a bumper harvest.

In the fifty acres of greenhouse, the white thin cloth like cicada wings was pulled apart, and the green vegetables were piled up like a mountain, which were piled high on the ground like a mountain, attracting countless villagers to watch, as well as all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred.

In this era when even the emperor could only eat two bites of lotus vegetables in winter, the Li family's bumper harvest was really worthy of the envy of others.

After Steward Xue shouted at the hired farmer to harvest, he carried all the green vegetables to the large courtyard outside the front door of the Li family, and weighed them into more than 20,000 catties.

Li Daozheng and Xue Steward blossomed, but Li Su was a little dissatisfied.

Fifty acres of more than 20,000 catties, an average of 400 catties per mu, in fact, the yield is relatively low, for farming, Li Su is just half a bucket of water swaying, barely remember a few details of the greenhouse vegetables in the previous life, specific cultivation and maintenance, etc., but I don't know anything, all by groping, stumbling over, harvesting only to get this yield.

More than 20,000 catties is not a small amount, at least the Li family will definitely not be able to eat it, plus the uncles and uncles in Chang'an City will not be able to send much, how to solve these green vegetables has become a big thing for Li Su to do.

The yard outside the gate of Li's house has never been so messy, baskets of cucumbers, eggplants (Kunlun purple melons) and mustard greens are piled high in the yard, and the yard, which is usually clean and tidy, looks like a canteen warehouse in a refugee camp today.

They must be tackled in a hurry!

…………

Wang Zhi has the most extensive connections, these days in the East Market, he knows the most businessmen, Song Ram is not good, at present, Song Ram can not let Song Ram know Li Su's savings, and there is another one, Li Su has a relationship, and Sun Pinggui, a merchant from Maozhou, who sold the greenhouse cloth to him.

"Shhh

Sun Pinggui was invited, and when he saw the green vegetables in the yard, he suddenly straightened his eyes, and his eyes were green.

"What the hell? Green cabbage! There are actually green vegetables in the cold weather......" Sun Pinggui was surprised.

"Looks good, right?" Li Su raised an eyebrow at him.

"It's good-looking, it's better than my mother-in-law......" Sun Pinggui said and pulled a handful of mustard leaves, and stuffed them into his mouth without washing them, seeing Li Suzhi frowning.

Sun Pinggui also seemed to be a little embarrassed by his ugly appearance, and said coyly: "I have been constipated for several days just eating meat all winter, and the nobleman forgives ...... sin."

"I bought all those rotten cloth heads last time, how are they doing? Didn't you trade at a loss anymore, did you? ”

Sun Pinggui became more and more embarrassed. first saluted Li Su, thanked Li Su for his kindness, and then said with a smile: "Thanks to the blessing of the nobleman, later the villain went to Maozhou to get two thousand horses of silk cloth, and after hoarding it for less than a month, it was bought by a Hu Shangquan." A little bit of money. ”

"So, you only sell cloth and nothing else?"

Sun Pinggui smiled: "Look at what the nobleman said, how can a businessman have the iron heart to only sell one thing, what can make money can be sold, if the people of Chang'an are short of dung forks, the villain immediately threw the cloth warehouse to sell dung forks......"

Li Su understood that in the eyes of businessmen, goods are not eternal. But money is eternal, as long as you can make money, you can sell anything.

Very good, Li Su is very relieved.

Pointing to the mountains of green vegetables piled up all over the yard, Li Su asked, "Can you sell these things?" ”

Sun Pinggui seemed to have been attacked and poured aphrodisiac, his face flushed with excitement, his breathing became short, and he said in a trembling voice: "The noble man is willing to let the villain help sell green vegetables?" ”

"How strange that is. Why don't I want to call you to the village? To put it mildly, can it be sold? Can't sell me to someone else......"

"I can sell it!" Sun Pinggui said loudly and forgetfully. Then he found that he was a little disrespectful, and bowed to Li Su as an apology, and said in a normal tone: "...... Can be sold, how many green vegetables can be sold by the villain, the villain guarantees integrity, if you give the noble person a short tael. Take the villain's head to make a count! ”

Li Su nodded, people in this era are still very honest, even the most cunning businessmen dare not joke about their integrity, he said that it will not be short, then it will definitely not be short. Sometimes the promises of businessmen are even heavier than ordinary people.

"Okay, you have worked hard, I don't lose you, the money from the sale is seven or three, I will be seven and you ......"

Before Li Su finished speaking, a very abrupt female voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Ninety-one opens, the Li family gets nine."

The two turned around in amazement and found Xu Mingzhu standing behind her, today Xu Mingzhu finally changed out of her dress, wearing a plain high-waisted skirt, her hair was pulled into a high bun, and a golden hairpin on her bun swayed with her steps.

Xu Mingzhu's face was not very good-looking, Li Su was a little puzzled, I don't know who made her angry, under the gaze of the two, Xu Mingzhu Yingying walked in front of her, bowed to Li Su first, and said softly: "First make amends to the husband, the concubine should not lose the rules and interject indiscriminately, the concubine's sin, after returning to the house, let the husband scold ......"

Li Su scratched his head: "Ah...... It's okay, it doesn't matter if you interject, you're my wife, and I should have informed you about the affairs of the family, but I forgot about it just now. ”

The corners of Xu Mingzhu's mouth pulled slightly, which was considered to be a smile, and then his pretty face tightened, got up and looked at Sun Pinggui, and said: "This should be a businessman who is doing business in Chang'an City, on businessmen, in fact, my family is also a businessman, I know the rules better than my husband, the businessman is nothing more than seeking profit, but today's transaction is different, the so-called 'this', all from my Li family, and you only passed a hand in the middle, neither investment nor risk, if you get three by this, I am afraid that you also think it is not appropriate, right?" ”

Li Su looked at her with wide eyes and stunned, Sun Pinggui's old face was flushed with shame, and he hurriedly explained: "Your lady is too careful, just now it was the noble man himself who said seventy-three points, the villain hasn't agreed yet, your lady is not wrong, the villain is just a hand in the middle, pulling a throat and shouting a few times, it's really not worth taking thirty percent......"

Xu Mingzhu smiled and said: "In this case, the concubine has the courage to make the decision for her husband, all the 20,000 catties of green vegetables are sold, and my Li family will take ninety percent of the silver money earned, and you will take one percent, as well as the carriage, coachman, labor, and the shops in the city, manpower, etc., the Li family will not ask, and only send two accountants to go with you to facilitate the supervision of the accounts of this transaction, what do you think?" ”

Cold sweat oozed from Sun Pinggui's forehead, obviously Xu Mingzhu had put a lot of pressure on him in this negotiation.

"Also, 20,000 catties of green vegetables is not a decimal, a brain in Chang'an City peddling but not much money, you might as well take two thousand catties out first, at a low price peddling, the people of Chang'an City will inevitably hear the wind, then the price to the highest, and then this batch of green vegetables according to the quality is divided into upper, middle and lower three, the price of the three qualities is naturally different, the people who sell are different, the superior products are sold to the princes and magnates of Chang'an, the medium is sold to merchants and officials, and the inferior is sold to the people, so that the magnates can feel comfortable, and the people are willing to buy after comparing the price, What do you think? ”

Sun Pinggui's eyes widened, and he was dumbfounded and didn't speak for a long time.

Li Su looked ashamed, and had the urge to hit the wall and wipe his neck.

Travelers, hunger marketing and boutique routes. Profit maximization...... Obviously the truth should know, but it is not as good as a teenage girl, this big head should be chopped off...... Give her a night pot?

When it comes to business, today's Xu Mingzhu is sharp, so strong that Li Su is a little unfamiliar.

The momentum is like Mount Tai pressing the top, what can Sun Pinggui say except nodding?

So Sun Pinggui went back to the city to find the carriage. And Xu Mingzhu still had a pretty face, and the two green onions and white hands held the corner of Li Su's sleeve, pulled him to the backyard wing, closed the door, and then bowed down to him.

"Forgive me, the concubine has lost her manners today, and you shouldn't lose your face in front of outsiders, and the concubine asks her husband to punish you."

Li Su was stunned for a moment. Said: "Ah, no rudeness, no rudeness, I said that you should be in charge of family affairs, but today I was negligent." ”

"Xie Fujun is considerate, the concubine has just ...... In fact, I have been standing behind you for a long time, and I have been holding back without making a sound. Afterward...... The concubine really couldn't watch our Li family suffer, so she was rude and stood up. ”

He bowed down and made amends. Li Suzhen couldn't see where this girl was rude, it was just too much courtesy.

Li Su was also polite: "Thanks to Mrs. today, I have recovered the losses for the Li family, and I could only take seventy percent, but I took ninety percent, which is really a big profit." Thank you Madame for stepping forward. ”

Xu Mingzhu's face turned red, and he lowered his head and said: "Husband, don't say it, if you talk about the concubine, you will be embarrassed......

After the matter was revealed, Li Suhe laughed twice, got up and opened the door to leave. Who knew that Xu Mingzhu stopped him again.

"Husband, the concubine has something else to say to her husband."

Li Su paused, turned around and said with a pleasant face: "You just say." ”

Xu Mingzhu's face turned even redder, and his expression didn't seem to be too shy, but there were more elements of anger, and there was a bit of timidity in his expression, and finally he took a deep breath, as if he was giving himself courage, and then said softly: "...... The concubine first apologized to her husband, and the concubine's words may be a little unpleasant, and she asked her husband to punish her after listening. ”

Li Su became more and more strange, and said with a smile: "How can there be punishment at every turn, I'm not so unreasonable, let's say, what's the matter?" ”

Xu Mingzhu gritted his teeth and said: "The husband is the county of His Majesty's imperial seal, and the concubine heard about the reputation of the husband before he got married, and the concubine's maiden family is in Jingyang County, and the husband is being named the prince of Jingyang County, for the concubine and the Xu family, it is already a figure who has ascended to the sky, I heard that the lord of the county is because the husband has made a splashing military exploit under the city of Songzhou, the Tang Dynasty fought against Tibet, and the whole Tuofu Jun turned the tide of the war by himself, not only recovered Songzhou City, but also advanced into the territory of Tubo for thousands of miles, met the city of Kecheng, met the enemy and killed the enemy, Soar my Tang Dynasty and the military ......"

Li Su smiled: "This is too exaggerated, although it is a fact, don't say it so nakedly, I will be embarrassed to ......"

Xu Mingzhu tugged at the corners of his mouth, and then said, "...... Before the concubine got married, the county Hu Sihu came to my house to be a matchmaker, talking about the husband's character and officials, as well as all kinds of merits, my parents were also so happy that they nodded without thinking about it, and after the concubine knew it at the time, her heart was also ...... is also happy, although the concubine has never seen her husband, but the concubine knows that her husband is a hero who stands up to the heavens and the earth, and if she can marry her husband, it must be because the concubine has cultivated ten generations of merits, and she is favored by God......"

Xu Mingzhu said, and suddenly changed his words: "...... In the eyes of the concubine, the husband should be the pillar of the court who is dedicated to the country, the top figure who governs the army and the people, and the people are all in charge of the army, and the words are all military secrets, the husband is the county of His Majesty, he is a decent, noble official eunuch, and the pillar of our Li family, but ...... How can a husband be a businessman, and a man who sells baht must be a lowly thing? ”
