Do it yourself, have plenty of food and clothing. Li Ji gave a few brothers some guidance on how to make a fortune, and these princes were so happy that they scratched their ears and cheeks.

Furniture is an epoch-making reform, and once it is launched, it will definitely be a hit. As for textiles, when the time comes, the price will be able to crush the peers.

A hydro-spinning car has 30 man-powered spinning wheels, and you can imagine how much profit there is in the middle.

Several princes have partnered to share shares, including the youngest Li Yu and Li You, who can share dividends.

In this way, these princes will become a large consortium that cannot be underestimated in the capital.

Li Ji discussed the follow-up matters with them for a while, and returned to the palace with promising and missing you for a while.

Li Ji in the furniture and textile industry originally asked Zhu Youneng to cooperate, but he saw the prince's embarrassment and gave it to them.

Fortunately, Datang is really as the ministers said, and there are good projects anyway, and they will be done slowly in the future.

On the way back to the palace, Li Ji was thinking about his grand cause all the way, getting married in the first eight years, and then he had to farm in the spring.

Originally, Li Ji was still worried about the promotion of new crop seeds, but now it seems that it is completely redundant. When the ministers saw the unnatural yields of corn and sweet potatoes, they took the initiative to ask for farming.

One spread ten to hundred, and soon the people of Luoyang City knew about this seed. The feudal town has been working on this idea, and it is said that Luo Shaowei is preparing to send a ship overseas to search for the seeds of this crop.

It should be the end of the year or the beginning of next year to send troops to cut the feudal domain, and Li Ji believes that next year's grain output will be a big explosion. With food, it's time to start a war.

"Coal, good coal!"

On the way back to the palace, Li Ji saw someone pulling an ox cart with a cart of charcoal from Huangling Mountain.

The coal of Huangling Mountain has become a sought-after commodity in the capital, and Luoyang City is no longer cold this winter.

Many coal dealers set up ox carts and transported coal to the capital to sell, earning some price difference and feeding a lot of people.

His face was full of dust and smoke, and his temples were pale and his fingers were black. What is the profit from selling charcoal? The clothes on the body eat in the mouth. The poor shirt is single, and the heart is worried and wishes for the cold.

Li Ji couldn't help but think of Bai Juyi, the charcoal seller, and the fatal thing was that the man driving the ox cart was also a white-haired old man, he was wearing a coarse linen shirt, and he was shivering from the cold.

Although today's Luoyang City is much richer than before, there is still a long way to go if everyone has food and clothing.

"Old man, how do you sell this charcoal?" A guy with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks stepped out of the opposite street.

When the customer came, the old man hurriedly greeted him with a smile: "A cart of charcoal, consistent money."

"Okay, my family wants this carload of charcoal." The thin monkey waved his hand, and the man took the old man to the back door like a dog.

The old man was extremely happy, if this cart of charcoal was sold, he could still earn his family's expenses for two months.

Li Ji raised his head and looked at the mansion: "Whose mansion is this?"

Youwei said on the side: "Master, this is the mansion of Lord Qing Jing Yinong of Honglu Temple."

"Nong Jingyi," Li Ji thought for a while, "It's the envoy he received who came to Jingfan Town."

Youwei nodded: "Exactly."

Honglu Temple is in charge of the court, guests, and auspicious ceremonies. All national ceremonies, suburban temples, sacrifices, court meetings, banquets, feasts, canonizations, calendars, springs, transmissions, performances, and other things.

Foreign officials make pilgrimages, all the fans pay tribute, and the husbands and hundreds of officials and ministers return to their lives, thank you, if you see those who resign, and Honglu plays.

"Oh, let's go." A Honglu Siqing is not enough to arouse Li Ji's interest.

The three of them had just walked a few steps when they heard the shouts of the old charcoal seller in the backyard of the farmhouse: "I can't help it, my cart of charcoal is consistent money, but I don't even give you an ox cart."

I only heard the sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked guy inside say angrily: "You said that a cart of charcoal has always been money, what's the matter, Lao Tzu gave you money and you still want to deny it." Blind your dog eyes, you don't look at whose house this is, our family is Honglu Temple. Take the money to the bastard as soon as possible! ”

Then the back door opened, and the old man who sold charcoal was pushed out by the sharp-beaked monkey gills. The old man had a penny in his hand, and the thin monkey pushed him to the ground, scattering the copper coins on the ground.

The old man cried and picked up the copper coins on the ground one by one: "I beg the adults to be good, I am selling charcoal, not cattle." The old man only said that the charcoal money is consistent, but he didn't say that even the ox cart will be given to you, you can't do this! ”

"Get out! Don't roll Lao Tzu to kill you. The skinny monkey rolled up his sleeves.

After speaking, the thin monkey saw Li Ji and them, and then glared: "Look at what!"

Before Li Ji had a seizure, the old man was willing to go, and knelt on the ground and begged bitterly. At this time, I only heard a deep voice in the house: "Erwa, what are you arguing about?"

As soon as the thin monkey named Erwa heard this voice, he immediately became an invertebrate, and his waist was bent like a shrimp: "My lord, this charcoal seller Diao Min is spilling it again, saying that he has always paid for a cart of charcoal, and he will not leave if he gives him money."

The people in the house coughed, pushed open the door and walked out.

Li Ji and the three of them quickly found a corner to hide, only to see that this Honglu Temple Qing Nong Jingyi had a big belly and a greasy face. He glanced at the tattered old man on the ground, and made no secret of his disgust: "What is going on?"

The old man explained the ins and outs of the matter clearly, and Nong Jingyi snorted: "You old man, how can you go back on your word when doing business." Since you said that this car of charcoal is worth the same amount of money, a car of charcoal is naturally a car with charcoal. You are still doing a lot of nonsense here, and if you don't leave, the official will call Dali Temple to arrest you and send it to the official for investigation! ”

Li Ji was furious, and the market value of just one ox cart was four or five times. He thought that this was just the second baby in charge of bullying people, but he didn't expect that this Honglu Siqing was not a thing.

Li Ji suddenly remembered that he had heard Zhu Youneng inadvertently say that the second son-in-law of Liu Dewang, the young government supervisor, was a pawn in Honglu Temple, and it is said that he was personally promoted by Nong Jingyi, the Qing of Honglu Temple.

The prodigal son is not involved in government affairs, but he has a lot of complaints about this Nong Jingyi, saying that he is very arrogant. At that time, Li Ji didn't think much about it, thinking that maybe he had offended Zhu Youneng.

Good for you, you are a Honglu Siqing, you are unlucky to be in my hands.

Obviously, the sentence of sending the official to investigate frightened the old man, and the old man cried and picked up the copper plates scattered on the ground. Nong Jingyi snorted, flicked his sleeves and went back to the house, and the second baby followed behind with a snort.

Pity this old man, his experience is the same as Bai Juyi's charcoal seller.

The cold wind was biting, and his thin tattered burlap clothes wrapped around his thin body, and he kicked the copper coin in his arms and wanted to cry without tears.

The old man stretched out his sleeve and wiped his nose, and left the door of the farmhouse step by step.

"Uncle!" Li Ji stopped him from behind.

As soon as the old man turned around, he recognized the young man who was watching the excitement just now, and sighed at the moment: "Alas!"

"Old man stay," Li Ji stopped him: "This old man, this Honglu Temple oppresses the people, why don't you sue the government."

The old man looked at Li Ji like a monster: "You young man came from out of town, and the officials and officials will protect you." This is Honglu Siqing, what kind of complaint do I have for a bad old man with no power and no power. Besides, I don't know where this yamen opens, so where does the complaint come from? ”

Li Ji's face turned slightly red, it is true, there is no yamen in the capital.

Pei Shu only hung up the position of Jing Zhaoyi, but in fact, Luoyang City has lost Jingzhao Mansion, the yamen institution of the capital.

Zhu Wen rules the world by force, the fist is the truth, and the sword is the law. Jing Zhaoyi has also become a false position, just ask which Jing Zhaoyi dares to investigate the evil deeds of Zhu Wen's subordinates in the capital.

After the destruction of Zhu Wen, the imperial court had a complicated situation, and someone once proposed the establishment of Jingzhao Mansion, but in fact, the imperial court has been doing it.

The establishment of a department is not just a few sentences, it requires office location, personnel arrangements, policy code.

Finally, Jingzhao Mansion was established in Nancheng, but it was not officially opened to the public.

Li Ji took out a silver ingot from Youwei's body: "Uncle, you take this." Listen to me, tomorrow you go to Jingzhao Mansion in Nancheng, go to the gate of the mansion to beat drums and voice grievances, and someone will make decisions for you. ”

The old man's breath was short, and the silver ingots weighed more than ten taels, enough to buy him two ox carts.

The old man looked at Li Jiqiyu extraordinary, and he was dressed very humanly: "Dare to ask the hero who you are?"

Li Ji smiled: "Don't hide it, I'm a Beijing official." I can't get used to these outlaws who are powerful and powerful, don't worry, if you go to Jingzhao Mansion early tomorrow morning, someone will make the decision for you! ”

The old man was suspicious, held the silver in his arms, knelt down at Li Ji and kowtowed respectfully: "Thank you for your revenge for the villain, but that's when you are the emperor of Honglu Temple, aren't you afraid of offending him?"

Youwei stretched out his thumb, pointed at Li Ji and said, "Don't worry, my family is much older than his official position." Don't be afraid, just go and sue tomorrow. ”

The old man was shocked, Honglu Temple Qing was from the third grade, and the young man in front of him was even older than his official position. Who could it be, could it be that it was a royal relative?

"Since the adult is in charge, the villain will definitely go to Jingzhao Mansion tomorrow to redress grievances. It's just that the villain walks the streets and alleys in the capital, and he also knows that this Jingzhao Mansion has not yet opened, can he apply for the case tomorrow? ”

Li Ji nodded: "Exactly, I will be able to apply for the case tomorrow."

After returning to the palace, Li Ji was furious. In the dignified capital, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, there is even such a dog official of the common people. If you don't kill their sharpness, these dog officials won't stop.

"Youwei, go and inform Pei Shu to enter the palace!"

This is about to be canonized as the queen, and there is such a fuss. Li Ji was a little irritable, but he had a hint of anticipation. He wants to see what kind of face this Honglu Siqing will have in the government when the time comes.

When Pei Shu learned that the emperor was in a hurry to recruit into the palace, he didn't dare to slack off at the moment, and hurried to the Datong Palace.

Li Ji and Youwei told Pei Shu what they saw and heard outside the palace today, and Pei Shu was taken aback: "The minister deserves to die, it is the minister's sin." Failed to establish this Jingzhao Mansion as soon as possible. ”

"It is precisely because the Jingzhao Mansion of the imperial court has not yet opened that these officials will have the courage to oppress the people wantonly. Pei Shu, tomorrow you go to Jingzhao Mansion and try this case in person! ”

"Minister, obey!"
