Chapter 239: You deserve to be unlucky

The person who came was none other than Li Yuanji's uncle Dou Jin.

Compared with another uncle, Dou Jin's elder brother Dou Kang, the two are completely one heaven and one underground, one is diligent and thrifty, and the other is discouraged, neither arrogant nor discouraged, and never relies on his own merits and identity to ask for anything.

And Dou Jin is the opposite of his brother, who is very happy and loves luxury, even if he has no credit, he always wants to make himself like the first merit in the world, he has no trouble with Huangpu, and even fights, and then bribed the messenger, so he was convicted and dismissed.

Later, Li Shimin transferred him back to the household department and named Deng Guogong.

I don't know where the deviation was, but Dou Jin, who should have been appointed secretary and supervisor, returned to the household department.

However, these have nothing to do with Li Yuanji, at this time, Dou Jin, there is no trace of pride and arrogance on his face, anxious, apprehensive, and uneasy expression is thick on his face.

"Uncle, this news is really well-informed, huh?" With a straight face, Li Yuanji asked very unhappily in his heart, Lao Tzu hasn't asked you to settle accounts, but he dared to send it to the door by himself.

It's no wonder that Li Yuanji thinks so, Dou Jin, unless he is looking for you with a hippie smile, and once he changes his expression, there will definitely be something behind it.

"The minister will prepare a thin wine in the mansion, please move His Royal Highness to the mansion ......" Dou Jin was careful and his liver kept trembling to avoid the seriousness and said lightly.

"Humph!" Li Yuanji snorted coldly and said dissatisfiedly: "Are you bullying orphans and not daring to force them?" ”

Dou Jin was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly shouted injustice: "Your Highness has a misunderstanding, this matter can't be explained clearly in one or two sentences, and I also ask Your Highness to move the minister's mansion, and Rong Chen will slowly talk to His Highness." ”

Although Dou Jin is a two-hundred-five, he is not yet two-hundred-five, so he is cheap and comes to the door to sell it.

On the contrary, Dou Jin has never had any crooked thoughts in front of the royal family, and even if he has, it is how to please the royal family, instead of doing some two-hundred-and-five-year-old things like Cheng Zhijie.

Seeing that Li Yuanji was already full of anger, Dou Jin could only secretly complain in his heart, but it was not suitable to talk so much on this street, so he could only invite Li Yuanji to the house first.

As for Li Yuanji's whereabouts,, send someone to keep an eye on it at the palace gate, anyway, Dou Jin didn't dare to enter the palace, so he could only wait for Li Yuanji to come out.

Taipingfang is still the Taipingfang, lively, proud, frustrated, and all kinds of life, you can see it all here.

The three gilded signboards of the Qi Palace's Mansion have been replaced with the Deng Guogong Mansion, and Dou Jin has also jumped to the top of the list of the most luxurious residences in Chang'an.

Li Yuanji had put a lot of thought into the Qi Palace, and now that Dou Jin, who likes luxury, has become the master, he naturally can't avoid some decoration.

On top of luxury, Dou Jin even opened up a small theater alone, a small stage, with several high-quality tables and chairs placed below, and the attitude of enjoyment was vividly embodied.

"Your Royal Highness, this royal minister was originally purchased by the king, hey......" As soon as he sat down, Dou Jin explained in a businesslike manner, he was afraid that Li Yuanji would directly throw his hands and leave if he delayed for a while.

"It's also a strange minister, although Pei Gong is determined to be upward, but he is also old at this age, and he is powerless in the face of a lot of things in the household department, so the minister has some thoughts to fight for the position of this Shangshu, and while he still has the strength to do it, he plans to do his part for the court again, after all, the minister also served as a Shangshu in the early years, not to mention anything else for the time being, there is still experience, and some things in the household department can be cleared quickly."

"It may be that the minister wants to do his part for the Tang Dynasty, so when he disposed of it, the means were a little unreasonable, so he angered His Majesty, ah, no, it's King Qin!"

Li Yuanji secretly doubted, if he wanted to progress, this was not a bad thing, even if the means were a little unreasonable, at most he would be taken away from this qualification, as for angering the emperor, how unreasonable would this means have to be to do it?

Moreover, Dou Jin has the aura bonus of the identity of Uncle Guo, although the bonus may be negative, but Li Shimin should still take care of it in terms of face.

For example, he was obviously holding back the anger in his belly, but when he really saw Dou Jin, he still had to call his uncle respectfully.

In terms of other abilities, Dou Jin may not even be able to compare with one percent of Fang Xuanling, but in terms of the ability to observe words and colors, Dou Jin can compare with almost all ministers, without a good eye, can he live so nourishingly?

Leaving Li Yuanji with some time to think, he continued to sigh and said: "Hey, the minister has already given up the position of Shangshu, and even has the intention of returning to his hometown, but who would have thought that at the court meeting the next day, King Qin announced the news that he would sell the palace of Qi for 10,000 yuan. ”

"The palace is naturally worth this price, and the minister even feels that he can't buy this palace at this price, especially now, the minister has firmly established this idea. Originally, the ministers didn't have any ideas, but this price is actually not low, and there are not many ministers in the court who can come up with so much money, and the merchants can come up with this price, but the Qi Wangfu also symbolizes the imperial court and represents the imperial court, so it is not very appropriate to sell it to them. ”

When King Qin saw that no one answered, he dropped to nine thousand guan, and still no one answered, so he looked directly at his ministers and said eight thousand guan. The minister had no choice but to smash the pot and sell iron, and went to the money village to borrow some money, which barely made up 8,000 yuan. ”

Dou Jin quietly glanced at Li Yuanji, but found that Li Yuanji was looking at him with a smile on his face, and his old face was instantly embarrassed.

"The minister also knows the significance of this palace to His Royal Highness, but the minister really has no place to go now, why don't His Highness give the minister some more time, let the minister breathe a little easier, find a suitable house to move over, and then return this palace to His Highness?" Dou Jin hurriedly added: "Forget about the money, the minister thinks that money is something outside the body, and if it is gone, it will be gone, and it is not important." ”

At this moment, Dou Jin hoped that Li Yuanji could take his hand with a smile, and then comforted, "He is him, lonely is lonely, lonely disdains to be a man of his word and untrustworthy, this house is lonely, you can live with peace of mind, you don't have to worry about Shangshu's affairs, in a few days Lone will give it to you, there is Lonely, you can let go and do it boldly, no one has to be afraid, let alone worry about anything!" ’

"Lone is curious, what have you done? Can he force you to buy the lonely palace? Li Yuanji's thinking has been stuck on what Dou Jin has done, and the explanation behind is only roughly listening, and he basically didn't pay attention to it.

'Poof......'

Dou Jin almost couldn't squirt it out, what if he didn't want the palace to be good? What about the one who said okay and let me be a scholar? Say okay, let it go, and do it boldly?

Dou Jin felt that his life was a tragedy, and he didn't come to what he wanted, and he didn't want it......

couldn't hide it, the bitter Dou Jin showed a bitter expression, and his expression was a little twisted: "Minister...... The minister just grabbed some people's pigtails and ......"

"You deserve to be unlucky!" Li Yuanji said angrily.

Arresting people with pigtails, such a normal political activity, can be made like this, it is enough to see how bad Dou Jin's political mind is, such a person can enjoy the blessings and prestige of being an official, if he is really given a position of Shangshu, it is estimated that the chaos in the world is only a matter of time.

"Okay, you don't have to go to Chaoli these days, go to your house with peace of mind, and give you a month of time for you." Li Yuanji got up, patted his butt and said.

What about your own uncle? If you want a lonely house, you can give it, but you can't occupy a lonely house.

Leaving Dou Jin with a dumb face, Li Yuanji left his home satisfied......

left the palace, but did not leave the Taiping Fang.

As a commercial square built by himself, although there are still many places that need to be improved and changed, now, I can clearly feel that Taipingfang is very awkward and not the kind I want.

Hidden in the dense crowd and walked around, carefully observing the grass and trees in Taipingfang, one shop and one person.

On the surface, it seems to be extremely prosperous, with a prosperous business and full of taxes, but after turning around this circle, Li Yuanji, whose business level belongs to the half-baked level, really saw the problem.

Li Shimin's business acumen is not much better than his own, and the ancients emphasized agriculture and suppressed business, so the management of Taipingfang also began to move towards the east and west cities in an all-round way.

The management officials were also directly transferred from the east and west cities, but fortunately, these officials were not without brains, at least they knew how to re-decorate and adjust according to the characteristics of Taipingfang.

The biggest drawback of the eastern and western cities is that they are too civilian, and the upper limit of official orders is increased.

With this order, it basically established the social status of the eastern and western cities, and also indicated the status of commerce in the Tang Dynasty.

All people with official status, except for the officials who manage the eastern and western cities, are forbidden to enter the eastern and western cities, and after years of development, this official restriction order has gradually evolved into people with a little status will not go there.

So don't look at the bustle of the two cities, in fact, in addition to ordinary people, there are some housekeepers and slaves of rich and noble families.

And other commercial activities are not on a large scale, for the gentlemen and ladies in Chang'an City, it is obviously impossible to go out shopping, too troublesome.

Taipingfang can just solve this embarrassment, plus its initial positioning is mid-to-high-end, and the store design should be brighter and more luxurious than the east and west cities, giving people a sense of high-grade.

Now on the surface, Taipingfang looks very good, and the business income is increasing day by day, but if it continues like this, Taipingfang will sooner or later fall into the footsteps of the east and west cities.

Before sitting in this position, I won't think about it so much, it's really the ass that determines the head, a country wants to be rich and strong, business is an indispensable part, a separate military is strong, it can only be strong for a while, only the military, commerce, industry, agriculture, politics, these five aspects are strong at the same time, is a country really strong.

Li Yuanji felt that he had a headache, forget it, professional things should be left to professional people, and he would be inspired to be an idle emperor.

"What about Luo Chen? Did you find it? ”
