Chapter 6: First Encounter with the King of Qin
After some discussion with Du Fuwei, Yin Qingfeng decided that the wine shop would be opened in the name of Du Fuwei, and the chefs would be trained by Yin Qingfeng. As for the share, he and Du Fuwei each accounted for 30%, and the other 40% was reserved for Pei Lin to eat dry shares.
By the end of September, the renovation of the Taste Building in Pingkang Fang was completed.
For this taste building to open in Pingkangfang, it was also suggested by Yin Qingfeng.
This Pingkangfang is famous for the Qinlou Chu Pavilion, but there are also some Jinjuan Courtyards gathered there. This concert is the equivalent of the Beijing office that has been abolished in modern times.
There are not only some in Pingkangfang, but also in Xuanyangfang, south of Pingkangfang, and these people come to the imperial capital with a lot of money to engage in relations. Although the scale of those buildings and halls and the concert hall has not yet formed a large scale, the taste building was built there to run for them.
The taste building, said to be a building, is actually just a bungalow. At this time, it was not without high-rise buildings, but they were generally used by large families to show off their status. Ordinary houses and shops are still bungalows.
The layout of the restaurant is the same as that of the restaurant in the modern day, with private rooms with sliding doors and wooden couches.
At Yin Qingfeng's suggestion, there is a heavy brick wall between the two private rooms, and the corridor is as spacious as possible. In this way, the privacy of the guests is increased, and their conversation is not afraid of being listened to by the next door.
Therefore, when the unique dishes and excellent soundproofing taste building opened, it was not only sought after by the wealthy, but even some whispers that could only be said in the inner house were whispered here from time to time.
"Eunuch Pei, what do you mean by looking at Li Fuwei's move?"
"Back to the saint, in the opinion of the minister, Li Fuwei's move should be for the sake of the heart of the saint. A few days ago, he came to my house and said that he was willing to be a living dog in Chang'an City. Today, he is also a wise man. As for him in the future... At least not yet. ”
"Well, you send someone to keep an eye on his movements."
The minister noticed that the grandson of the deceased Duke Qiao had visited Li Fuwei. After the little Langjun left, Li Fuwei went to visit the minister. On the second day after the sage sent the edict to Li Fuwei, he went to the residence of the little Langjun. Not long after that, Li Fuwei opened the taste building. ”
"Oh? What does Supervisor Pei mean is that Li Fuwei's actions have the guidance of that kid? ”
"The people close to Li Fuwei's mansion were all brought by him from Jiangnan, and some news has not yet been found. However, judging from these signs, the relationship between Li Fuwei and that Xiao Langjun may not be simple. ”
"I didn't expect there to be such an interesting kid. Li Fuwei doesn't care if he kills or not, you can also help someone pay attention to that kid. ”
On this day, Du Fuwei came to Yin Qingfeng's house again.
"Brother Xian, do you know how much income has been made in the past ten days?" Du Fuwei asked with an excited look on his face and a mysterious expression.
"Hahaha, looking at my brother's demeanor, I'm afraid it's indispensable. Why don't you let your brother-in-law guess? ”
The little girl was stunned for a moment and said, "Based on a thousand guan a day, I'm afraid there are ten thousand." ”
"Hahaha, my brother-in-law deserves to be my brother's virtuous helper, but it's still too little. Although there are only 30 rooms, the daily income is about 1,500 yuan. Coupled with what the virtuous brother said, he added about 3,000 per day. In just these 10 days, there were 48,000 entries. Hahaha. ”
Yin Qingfeng smiled but said nothing, looked at the little girl and said in surprise: "Forty-eight thousand?!" ”
After the two calmed down, Yin Qingfeng said: "I'm afraid that the news that Wu Guogong, who has spread all over the Tang Dynasty, has opened a wine shop in Chang'an City, right?" ”
"Exactly, exactly. The little brother asked the children to go out to investigate, just like the virtuous brother said, those people sneered at the little brother for engaging in business, hahaha. ”
"One thing, brother should remember: don't associate with other powerful people, especially those who hold the most powerful positions."
"Little brother saved."
At the end of November, Ren Liu reported to Yin Qingfeng that Li Shimin had returned to Chang'an.
In the afternoon of the same day, Yin Qingfeng sent someone to tell Du Fuwei that he would visit tomorrow evening.
"Brother, I came today to inquire about something."
"Brother Xian, please speak."
Yin Qingfeng has been dating Du Fuwei for a long time, and those polite words have been omitted, "I don't know what my brother plans to do in the future, is he a free prince, or...?" ”
Du Fuwei was silent for a while after hearing this, and said: "When I stole a sheep, the officials wanted to catch me and kill my head, so I had no choice but to take the risk, but I didn't expect to fight out of a huge territory within a few years. Little brother, I don't want to fight with anyone, everything is just to save my life.
Now that I have listened to your advice, resigned from the king's lordship, and opened this wine shop, I am also content. The original farm house children are very beautiful in Chang'an City today, and there is nothing to be dissatisfied. When your sister-in-law comes next month, I'll let your sister-in-law give you a few nephews and nieces or something, hahaha, it's good, it's good! ”
Yin Qingfeng saw that there was nothing false in Du Fuwei's words, but he was embarrassed.
Originally, he wanted to get to know Li Shimin through Du Fuwei, but now he doesn't want to get involved in the matter of governance at all, so what should he do himself?
After thinking about it for a while, Yin Qingfeng opened his mouth and said, "The younger brother has something to ask my brother for help. ”
"You say, without you, I wouldn't be where I am today, you just say anything." Du Fuwei replied cheerfully.
"I want to ask my brother to come forward and entertain King Qin. In addition to chatting about your sons and daughters under the command of King Qin, I also asked my brother to introduce my younger brother to King Qin. ”
"You mean....?"
"I'm betting on King Qin's ascendancy!" In order to achieve his goal, Yin Qingfeng had no choice but to tell the truth.
Du Fuwei was taken aback, and looked at Yin Qingfeng with a nervous expression: "Brother Xian, I know that you are extremely resourceful, but are you really sure that this King Qin will..."
"Yes! Pretty sure! ”
When Du Fuwei saw Yin Qingfeng say this, he didn't hesitate, "Okay, since you said so, I will invite this King of Qin tomorrow!" ”
"Thank you, brother!"
"You're welcome between you and me!"
"Although my brother doesn't want to get involved in political affairs anymore, he might as well walk around with King Qin more."
"Why is that?"
"King Qin has now surpassed the crown prince Li Jiancheng in some aspects. If the elder brother maintains a certain degree of intimacy with King Qin, he can also let some people cast a rat bogey, to put it bluntly, we are now going to be a fox and a fake tiger. When the general situation is clear, the safety of my brother will naturally be safe. ”
On the first day of rest in December, in the mansion of Wu Guogong, Li Shimin, Du Fuwei, and Yin Qingfeng sat on a wooden couch and ate separately.
After the banquet was withdrawn, Du Fuwei chatted with Li Shimin for a while about the dishes and the things of his former subordinates who were taken in by Li Shimin, and then said to Li Shimin: "Fuwei has today, and I want to thank Fuwei for this righteous brother." Without the advice of my brother-in-law, Volvey would not have been a rich man at ease. ”|
"Oh?" Li Shimin looked at Yin Qingfeng, who stopped speaking after the initial introduction, and was a little curious, "What advice did your righteous brother suggest?" ”
Du Fuwei said the analytical words and suggestions that Yin Qingfeng said that day, "Fu Wei thought it was true at the time, but the good news is that Jiangnan really surrendered to His Majesty, and Fu Wei can live in peace." I invited King Qin to come today, just to recommend Fu Wei, the young and talented brother, to His Royal Highness King Qin. ”
After speaking, Du Fuwei told him again why Yin Qingfeng left the Yunguo Mansion.
Li Shimin listened to Du Fuwei's introduction and looked at Yin Qingfeng, who was sitting behind the wooden case.
Yin Qingfeng had already observed Li Shimin before: Looking at the "young man" in his twenties who is 1.9 meters tall and has a wide forehead and thick eyebrows and black hair, is it Comrade Li Shimin, a generation of Mingjun? We're going to meet now?
Yin Qingfeng couldn't help but be in a trance: "He belonged to the horse in 598 A.D. (Wuwu year), he married his thirteen-year-old eldest grandson when he was sixteen years old, he launched the Xuanwumen Revolution at the age of twenty-eight, he ascended the throne at the age of twenty-eight, he created a prosperous era of Zhenguan during his reign of twenty-three years, he ordered to beautify his image in the Xuanwumen Change, he conquered Goguryeo, Turkic, he and pro-Tubo, he ....."
"Listening to Wu Guogong's introduction, Yin Xiaolangjun is not only resourceful, but also very courageous, and even appreciates it." Li Shimin pressed the surprise in his heart and praised Yin Qingfeng.
Yin Qingfeng lifted his hips away slightly, and said with his hands: "I am very frightened to see His Highness with a cheeky face. ”
"I am happy to see you, since your brother-in-law recommended you, what can you teach you?"
"Don't dare! It's really a righteous brother's praise, but the kid still has some ideas that he wants to hear with His Highness. ”
"Hmm... Then you can talk about it. ”
"Throughout my country for thousands of years, the general trend of the world is that it will be divided for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time. As an emperor, the main concern is how to achieve unity without separation. ”
"If you divide for a long time, you will be together for a long time...."Li Shimin stroked his long black hair and muttered to himself, "Then how can you get together without separation?" ”
"Taking the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty as an example, the appearance of the Yellow Turban Army was not simply because of the appearance and bewitchment of the Zhang Jiao brothers, but because the people had no land to cultivate. For the common people, they only want to be fed. The common people who can eat enough are not willing to rebel, and this is the reason for the chaos in the world in the past few years. ”
Li Shimin asked: "Then do you have a specific way?" ”
"The kid has some ideas. But ideas are just ideas, and if you say them rashly, I'm afraid it will be a little biased. When the boy was studying, he came up with a truth, and this truth is: verify the true knowledge. All things, without investigation and exploration, sit in a house behind closed doors, this is ridiculous. ”
"Then you can tell me how you want to verify?"
"The boy has a field rewarded by the saint under his name, and the boy wants to do something in this field to know whether the boy's idea is feasible."
Yin Qingfeng's vague words did not make Li Shimin lose interest, but continued to ask: "In other words, those thoughts of yours will not be known until next year's autumn harvest?" ”
"Yes, there will be some results in the autumn harvest next year, but the final result will be determined in another three to five years."
"Good! Thou hast been so concerned about the affairs of the people at such a young age, and thou hast acted so cautiously, that if there is a fruit next fall, then thou shalt come back to find so-and-so. ”
Li Shimin didn't immediately express much appreciation for Yin Qingfeng's words, but he remembered Yin Qingfeng now for a certain amount.
After Li Shimin had another conversation with Du Fuwei, he was about to leave.
Before Li Shimin was about to get on the horse, Yin Qingfeng handed a pocket and both hands in front of Li Shimin, "I have the honor to meet Your Highness today, the kid has something to offer, and I ask Your Highness to smile." ”
Li Shimin took it curiously, tossed it with his hand, and did not open it immediately. After waiting for the horse, "I am looking forward to your performance." ”
After speaking, Li Shimin left with a team of people.
After Yin Qingfeng stood there and watched Li Shimin leave, he turned back to Du Fuwei and said, "Brother, I wonder when my sister-in-law will be able to arrive in Chang'an?" ”
"It is estimated that it has already passed Xiangzhou (Xiangyang) early, and according to the distance, it will take about ten days."
"After my sister-in-law came, Yuemei could be regarded as having a companion. I'm going back, and I'm not at ease if I leave her home alone. ”
"Okay, then I won't keep it, and when your sister-in-law comes, I will definitely call the two of you to come and complain."
