Chapter 642: There is another way to raise money

The words of the inner courtyard made Li Longji temporarily give up the plan to continue to let Zhang Xiaobao think of ideas to help others repair houses and roads.

"Becky, how much do they need?"

"Back to Your Majesty, I don't know how much money is needed, the little boy and the little lady want to borrow three million guan, all their things together, the normal valuation is about six million guan, due to the added value of jewelry processing technology and the uncertain factor of the brand of the baby candy house, so at most you can borrow half of the total value, three million guan."

The inner courtyard replied, and as soon as Xiaobei and the others were mentioned, a doting smile appeared on the inner courtyard's face.

Li Longji waved his hand, and the inner courtyard retreated.

"Xiaobao, send a report to ask Xiaobei to see what they are going to do?" Li Longji became interested and urged.

Zhang Xiaobao shook his head: "Don't ask, since they don't care about the money they ask for at home, it means that they want to do things with their own skills, and it is normal for Datang Qianzhuang to reject their loan applications, see what else they can come up with." ”

"If possible, I want to give them three million, just a little money, and I see that Xiaobei and they are so embarrassed that they have to mortgage their own things."

Li Longji looked distressed, the words three million guan came out of his mouth so casually, ten years ago, he definitely did not have such confidence.

"Xiaobei, they can't ask for our money, they finally went out once, they are free, and if they want to do things, then let them try, it's a big deal to do badly, lose some money, for them, it is the most important thing to get the harvest of life from it."

While speaking, Zhang Xiaobao has put red charcoal in the grill, and it is still rainy outside, and the contrast between the two compartments makes the umbrella look very comfortable.

Li Longji shook his head with a smile, picked up a bamboo stick to cut open the belly of a prawn that was still alive, took out the internal organs, put it on, put it on the shelf, and then put on another one, and said while doing it: "In recent years, I have only lived a relatively happy life, and I used to have to intrigue with the courtiers, and the palace was not stable.

There are also neighboring countries, foreign ethnic groups in the north of Hebei Province, the only thing that can be said to be better is the treasury, which is abundant on the surface, if I didn't know the life of the people now, and the situation after you and Juan Juan described it to me, I thought that the people of Datang were already very good.

Thanks to you and Juan Juan, with your power, I don't have to worry about the courtiers' ill intentions, and they can't afford to turn the sky over, so life is enjoyment, not distress, down to the people, up to me, the emperor, who hasn't bothered a little? Thinking about it all day, I don't live anymore. ”

Zhang Xiaobao pinched the handle brush in his hand and brushed the brine on the shrimp, the fresh shrimp would be eaten like this, if it weren't for Li Longji's heavy mouth, he wouldn't even need to brush the salt water.

Listening to Li Longji's emotion, he kept moving his hands, and then said: "No one in power can solve all the troubles of the people under his rule, but at least let the people not worry about survival, and if you do this, even if you succeed, it will be difficult anyway." ”

"Yes, it's difficult, no matter how difficult it is, Xiaobao, where did I say just now?" Li Longji nodded slightly, flipped the bamboo stick in his hand, and suddenly asked.

"Say it's a good life."

"Not that, front."

"Give Becky money."

"Further ahead."

"Let me eat."

"Further on."

"Give them money."

"Eat the shrimp, I grilled it for you myself, you'd better make a show when you eat it, right?"

"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty, I can't thank you enough."

"Show loyalty."

"The minister's loyalty to the Tang Dynasty can be seen by the sun and the moon, and he is willing to protect His Majesty's stability."

"Next time, put me in front of me, and you won't say that you will go to the soup and fight the fire?"

"I'm going to repair someone's house."

"Okay, drinking, it's really raining outside the umbrella, and the grill is drying shrimp and wine. The boat, bridge, car and horse are all over the world, and the people's livelihood is like a heart. Li Longji raised his glass.

"!" Zhang Xiaobao raised his head and drank it all, grabbed the bottle and poured another cup for Li Longji and himself, and raised his glass again: "Cheers, the wild goose flies south and back, another cup, the people have their own family affairs." The upper position should do the superior thing, who does it know to build bridges and repair roads? ”

"Huh! Do you want to tell me a big truth? You are a person of high authority and you are not willing to do small things, so who do you know? Tell me who will do it? ”

Li Longji looked at Zhang Xiaobao with his eyes, took the shrimp handed over by Zhang Xiaobao, took a bite, nodded, signaled that it was good, and then toasted with a glass of wine, and said: "Change the rice wine, I see that you and Juan Juan drink wine, not a cup of dry, right now keep toasting, awkward." ”

Zhang Xiaobao turned his head and shouted 'boil wine' to the inner courtyard more than ten steps away, turned around and picked up a shrimp himself, took a small bite, chewed slowly, and said to Li Longji:

"We said some time ago that we want to make the local rich and noble families and squires qualified to participate in the local administrative proposals, and then select them layer by layer, and finally come to the capital, why don't you let them do it?"

"Yes, I forgot about it, when I finish eating, I will make an order immediately, it was difficult for you before, it is not easy for your family to buy and sell to the county, how can you pay attention to the affairs of the households in the village? Local affairs are done by the locality, and then reported to the county, which will be reviewed by the county yamen, so that your family can use its strength to help secretly verify. ”

Li Longji slapped his hands, looking very happy, fished out the live shrimp, and continued to process.

Zhang Xiaobao pursed his lips, picked up the charcoal clip, and scraped the white charcoal ash on the charcoal surface down, knowing that if he didn't say a way, Li Longji would definitely not stop harassing him, and it would be easy to eat with an emperor who was looking for trouble all day long?

"Xiaobao, you say, is it easy for me to have a meal with you? At the risk of getting the cold, I have to work for you, just to make you happy, so that I can walk around with me more, and when we come back, let's all go by land, how about it? ”

Without waiting for Zhang Xiaobao to say his complaint, Li Longji complained first.

Zhang Xiaobao was so frightened by the meaning of Li Longji's words that he couldn't move his hands, until he felt the temperature of the charcoal fire, he suddenly withdrew his hand, pondered for a while, gritted his teeth, and said: "Cheng, if you dare to go, I will dare to accompany you, transfer from Jiangnan West Road to Luzhou by land once, and you will know what is going on when you walk." ”

"Then try." Li Longji said with little confidence.

At this time, the inner courtyard has put the red clay stove over, and there is a wine jar, which is sealed with mud, and the wine inside is naturally Shaoxing rice wine, not bought, it is sent by the businessmen who cooperate with Zhang Wang and the two families, and they have to send a lot every year.

Zhang Xiaobao prefers to drink wine, almost to rice wine, occasionally drink it, most of it is used to cook, and the cellar is so that he splashes it in the pot spoonful.

Wine, is wine, simple wine, even if it is boiled wine, nothing else is added, just like tea, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan are not used to drinking things like ginger, sugar, and salt added to it.

Li Longji looked at Zhang Xiaobao fiddling with the small stove and wine, and suddenly said: "I knew I was going to eat shrimp, so I let you make drunk shrimp, now ...... It's too late. ”

Zhang Xiaobao nodded, boiled the wine, and said, "Let people catch two fish in a while, and when the boats are all gathered in the afternoon, they will go quickly." ”

******

In the cabin, Wang Juan accompanied Concubine Wu Hui and Queen Wang to talk.

Concubine Wu Hui asked Wang Juan more about where the business shop in Wang Juan's house went, how to arrange the manpower, and what happened in the process of improving the system, and she planned to develop in this direction.

Queen Wang was talking about children, and asked where Xiaobei and the others had been recently, and whether there was any news about her son and daughter.

Wang Juan coped with it freely, saying that when he bought and sold his family, he could still bring the child's affairs with him, and the three of them talked happily.

Similarly, Wang Juan also received news from his family that Xiaobei and others were rejected for loans.

"The stewards of Datang Qianzhuang are too hateful, can Xiaobei still rely on their accounts? Let Xiaobao clean up the people, Xiaobei and their things don't say 3 million, shouting 30 million, how many people rush to buy them. ”

Queen Wang was dissatisfied when she heard the news, and reported grievances for Xiaobei and others.

Concubine Wu Hui agreed with Qian Zhuang's approach very much, and said: "Sister, don't blame the local Qian Zhuang manager, there are no rules, there is no square circle, today I agreed to Xiaobei and their loans, tomorrow the other children stole the things at home and took them to exchange for money, do you give it?" ”

"Xiaobei, they are different from other children, Juanjuan, what do you say Xiaobei wants money for?" Queen Wang suddenly thought of this question, three million guan is not a small amount.

Wang Juan shook his head: "I don't know, since the younger brothers and sisters don't care about the money at home, they naturally have their own plans, let them go, the family cultivates the child, and when it is time to let go, do it right, the credit is on the child, if you do it wrong, it should be the family's training expenses."

This is the difference between the children of the family and the children of ordinary families, the children of the family have enough resources for them to try, as long as they are not too stupid, they often distance themselves from the children of ordinary people's families. ”

Empress Wang and Concubine Wu Hui nodded, and immediately shook their heads at the same time.

Concubine Wu Hui said: "It depends on who you compare with, compared with you and Xiaobao, the children of the family will also be overshadowed, you have learned too much." ”

"This is the power of education, the purpose of which is to let a small number of ordinary children through hard work, close the distance with the children of the family, since there are not enough resources to gain experience through practical actions like the children of other families, then learn indirectly from books."

Wang Juan mentioned the importance of education.

"But isn't it, we should educate our children well, our Datang children are better than children in other places, there are a few more Xiaobei like them, which one dares to disobey the surrounding countries in the future?"

The queen's words were still so aggressive.

"Little lady." The maid pulled open the hatch from the outside, poked her head out and whispered.

"How?" Wang Juan asked.

"The news came, Xiaobei theirs, they didn't get the loan, and immediately contacted the people of the branches of other large commercial banks in Xuzhou, so far, the intelligence shows that an agreement has been reached with the three large commercial banks, and the three major commercial banks have agreed to support five million yuan in cash for the time being, and four other branches of other commercial banks are sending telegrams to ask the owner."

The maid replied.

Wang Juan was stunned, and after a few breaths, he laughed again: "Five million guan? Or is it temporary? It is worthy of me and Xiaobao's younger brothers and sisters, it seems that they have made several preparations, and they have Xiaobao's demeanor, and they have not lost their reputation. ”
