A: "Hey, have you heard, Your Majesty is embarrassed to be the prince, let the prince go to the grassland to build a city, and gave the prince 3 million." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
B: "It's really fake, isn't it embarrassing, that city can be built in three million guan." ”
C: "I heard that the prince is borrowing money everywhere now, and you say that your majesty is true, the prince is such a good baby, why don't you know that it hurts." ”
Ding: "Who said no, if I had such a good son, why don't I burn incense and worship Buddha all day long." ”
A few people chatted unscrupulously on the street, and were heard by the Chang'an County officials patrolling the street, looking at a few idlers and saying loudly: "It's okay to have something, and the affairs of the heavenly family are also discussed by you," and quickly dispersed.
A few people glared at the officer, and then dispersed, the people of Chang'an are not afraid of being an official, in this place where a head can hit a five-grade official, the miscellaneous officer who has no rank is naturally not in his eyes, and the temper of the second pole in the gate comes up, and it is common to give you a dull stick behind your back when you are curling, and the officer is not angry, and continues to patrol with a knife.
The rumors slowly spread out from Chang'an, of course, some things can be heard, and the matter of building the city is to be a talking point in the ears of the people, but some people are concerned.
"Your Royal Highness, this is what my grandfather brought to you, three cars, 100,000 yuan, my grandfather said, there is still money at home, don't worry."
Cheng De took a bill of exchange of 100,000 silver coins and said, the brand new bill of exchange has not even been folded, Li Chengyan wanted to laugh a little, but his strength was snatched away by the sourness in his eyes, and it became um. Cheng De left with the empty carriage, the steward of Li Jing's family, the steward of Li Shiji's family, Niu Jinda's family, and Shan Xiongxin's family brought over 300,000 yuan, which made Li Chengyan feel distressed and wanted to scold his mother, they lent Li Chengyan money not because Li Chengyan was the prince, but because they regarded themselves as their sons and nephews.
"Go back and tell your lord, this money will be regarded as part money, and in a few days, I will return it to them with interest."
"Your Highness laughed, if I pass this back, my lord can burn the small one as chopping wood."
Li Chengyan looked at the smiling little guy, laughed, laughed and cried, because Li Chengyan saw a lot of people walking towards the gate of the East Palace, all of them were from Yanluo Town, many Li Chengyan knew each other, they bowed to Li Chengyan with a smile, and then handed Li Chengyan a bill of exchange, this is their lifeline, the people of Yanluo Town are rich, how can they come up with a small amount of money of a few thousand yuan without a family?
Wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes, Li Chengyan pointed to the little fart who was still stuffing money into his hand: "Didn't your father cry with me a few days ago, why did he take out 3,000 yuan in a blink of an eye?" ”
The kid gritted his teeth and smiled, and then said to Li Chengyan: "My father said, if he doesn't cry poor, you will give the business of Shanghezhuang to others." ”
"Just your father, go back and tell him that he will go to the grassland this year, and he will have a share, let him take the guy and follow me to the grassland!"
"I knew you said this, my father took care of all the armor, just waiting for your order."
"Wang Fu, write it down for me, whoever took the money, exchange it for treasury bonds and send it back to every household! Interest will be paid at 10%. ”
Wang Fu has been keeping accounts since the morning, and it was not until the curfew that it was over, Li Siyan on the side has been watching, Li Chengyan has been calling him uncle, he is called uncle, and he is called uncle, and his voice is hoarse at night, how can a two-year-old doll be honest? But looking at his father with a stiff face, he didn't dare to say a word, and the eldest grandson on the city wall in the distance always wanted to go down to hug the child, but was stopped by Li Er.
"Admitting that this is for his son to recognize people, you see, in the future, Siyan must be the most famous in Chang'an City, because he has a good father, and his father has a group of good people! This is the warmth and coldness of human feelings, admitting that this is telling me! For the monarch is like a boat, for the people is like water, water can carry a boat, but also can overturn a boat. If you want my Li family to live forever! The people are the foundation! I bet that in a few days, even if there is no way to admit it, the people of the fiefdom will be able to make up the money for him even if they smash the pot and sell iron, such a prince, I am afraid to look at it! ”
After Li Er finished speaking, he said to the hundred officials who followed him behind him with tears,
"Look at it, this is my people in the Tang Dynasty! There they are! I'm Datang! Forever can be expected! Back then, some people said that the prince was good at buying people's hearts! I tell you that the hearts of the people are not something you can buy if you want to! ”
Everyone was silent, they couldn't imagine that a small thing could make the people so loved, recalling what Li Chengyan did, everyone suddenly realized that Li Chengyan had never received a grain of grain from the back cover, and people over fifty years old were treated by people in the town for free, and so on, it seemed that a small thing had such a great power when connected. If this way is put in the whole country~ everyone dare not think, they can't think of anything else to be afraid of such an empire.
Li Chengyan didn't see it, just on the wall of the palace, a group of people watched this scene here, watched it all day, as if they never got tired of it, saw the seventy-year-old man being carried to give Li Chengyan money, they laughed, watched the seven or eight-year-old children rubbing their noses to give Li Chengyan money, they laughed, watching the crowd in front of the East Palace gather more and more and they laughed, this is the best scenery they have seen in their lives, this is the world they fought with their own hands, this is the people under their rule, this is the people's hearts!
"Tomorrow convene all the money village stewards, the East Palace ceremonies, and notify the major treasurers of the East Palace, as well as the famous rich businessmen of Chang'an, ten days later, I will have a banquet in the East Palace, and all those who come to the East Palace today to give money, the interest of each family will be raised by 30% on the basis of what I said, and in addition, I will share the income of the grassland in the future!"
Li Chengyan commanded in a dumb voice, Li Siyan behind him also kept drinking water, he talked too much today, his throat was uncomfortable, the steward just left, the door was opened, the eldest grandson came in without saying a word, first found Li Chengyan's shoulder and slapped him hard, and then hugged Li Siyan up with tears, listening to Li Siyan shouting hoarsely Grandma, the eldest grandson glared at Li Chengyan fiercely, turned around and went out.
"Honestly, do you know, I watched all this from the city tower, is that how afraid I am in my heart? If it were someone else, I would have ordered you to be killed at once, but then, my heart was filled with nothing but joy. ”
Li Chengyan took a sip of water and moistened his throat, and said in a voice that seemed to be rubbed by sand: "Aye is more worried, a group of guys who see money, I haven't lost any other reputation for so many years, this title of God of Wealth, the child is well-deserved, and many businessmen have already offered me as the God of Wealth." Believe it or not, if the retainers make any changes, they can send the children to you without your hands. ”
After Li Chengyan finished speaking, he swallowed his saliva fiercely, and his throat hurt fiercely as soon as he spoke, Li Er tapped Li Chengyan's head hard, and then smiled, sure enough, he was still careful, not because of what Li Chengyan said, but because he shouldn't doubt this child.
