Chapter 33: Making a fortune
The remnants of the lamp were like beans, and the yellowish candle flame illuminated the empty secret room. It is said to be a secret room, but it is actually a small room built in a rockery in the middle of the garden. The whistling of the north wind whistling all around was audible in the room, but the walls around it were tight, and there was not a single gap, except for a small opening at the top of the head for ventilation.
The two of them sat on opposite sides of the desk in the secret room, discussing.
"Big brother, don't worry, I didn't let you kill that one directly, but I can do something else!" One of them was very ugly, and he was talking to the other at the moment.
"So what do you want? In short, the father can't move! I don't know how much you hate dick, but there are some things you can't do, that's the bottom line. Being a person, especially a person who wants to do big things, can be shameless and conspiratorial, but you must have your own bottom line. Those who can't keep the bottom line can't keep the country! The other person was dressed in a yellow robe, embroidered with a four-clawed dragon, the dragon roared to the sky, and the horns of the head were grand, and there was a great tendency to soar into the sky and turn into a real dragon. It was the prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li Jiancheng, who was opposing his third brother's plan at the moment. I didn't expect Li Yuanji to come out of a frenzy to attack Li Yuan, not to mention that Li Yuan is the controller of the biggest force in Chang'an City, just as a few people are concerned, Li Jiancheng will never allow it.
Killing a father with a son is the worst and most unforgivable way. Even if it doesn't hurt his life, Li Jiancheng can't tolerate it. Before, he just felt that his third brother was because of his hideous face and the suppression of the second child, and his personality was distorted, but now he felt that Li Yuanji had completely lost his mind, and he could only be described as mad.
"Why is the eldest brother so angry, he is angry, he is still proud, and our good father will not necessarily accept your affection! I'm sure you've received that secret letter from him, hehe...... Let's not fight now, but after the world is calmed down, the second child has his hands freed, do we still have a way to live? What a good father! Li Yuanji smiled like a night owl, and he looked particularly infiltrating in this cold secret room.
"But I can't stretch out my hand to my father! That's our father! Li Jiancheng still didn't agree, his enemy is Li Er, always, from the moment that kid began to emerge, Li Jiancheng knew that his younger brother was not a thing in the pool, but he didn't expect that he had become his biggest threat over the years.
As for Li Yuan, he respects him from the bottom of his heart, whether it is from the perspective of being a son of man or a minister. Li Yuan can be said to have done a very good job for him Li Jiancheng, at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, many people proposed to let the second son Li Shimin serve as the candidate, and Li Yuan pushed him up against public opinion. Li Jiancheng still remembered the king who roared in the court at that time, which was his father.
In the end, the two broke up unhappily, and Li Yuanji left angrily. When he walked out of this secret stronghold of the two, there was a gloomy smile on the corner of his mouth: Hehe, some things are the same no matter which of the two of us does it! I don't have an idea about that position, because I know that even if I sit on it, I won't be able to sit for long, but I will never allow Li Er to sit on it, even if I fall into the abyss, I will kill that guy.
The winter in Chang'an is long, from late autumn to early spring, it is covered with snow. People are hurrying down the streets, and in today's largest city, the stress of everyday life doesn't put them in the mood to stop and relax. They have to do their best to eat and wear every day.
A carriage, driven out of the city, towards the city outside the Leyouyuan, the flying flag on the car, showing the identity of the owner, the big 'Qin' character, plus the two halberd patterns as the bottom name, indicating that the master is a general. If there is only this one flag, then people will think that it is a general surnamed Qin. But coupled with the Jiaolong picture on the other banner, then the owner will only be Li Er, the king of Qin.
That's right, this is Li Er's carriage, two horses pulled the carriage, along the street, out of Chang'an City. In this afternoon, not many people left the city, and the carriage reached Mingde Gate without slowing down.
Passing through the city gate hole, the outside world was shown in the eyes of Li Kuan, who lifted the curtain of the car window, this was the second time he went out of Chang'an City, and the previous time was with Xiao Lori out of the autumn outing. This time it was with Li Er, and they were going to see the Black Stone Mountain.
Just half an hour ago, Li Er had already entered the palace to ask Li Yuan for a holy decree, and from now on, that Black Stone Mountain would be Li Kuan's property.
Although I don't know how Li Er persuaded Li Yuan, the price he wants to pay will not be too small, you must know that all the coal in the entire Chang'an City comes from there, how much profit is that, it was under the direct jurisdiction of the household department before, and all the proceeds were handed over to the state treasury. Now it is about to become the private property of the prince of the royal family, and the transaction in it is not enough for outsiders.
Heishi Mountain is not very far from Chang'an City, less than twenty miles, and there are several villages around, most of which are villages, and they are shaving in the fields all year round, barely filling their stomachs. When they saw the carriage approaching from afar, they all avoided it. These noble families can't afford to provoke them, last time there was a very ugly nobleman who fell in love with the delicate little girl in Lin Zhuang, because the old couple of the Lin family refused, and they were almost beaten to death. Now in the Zhuang family on the outskirts of Chang'an, those who have beautiful daughters have hidden their daughters, for fear that such a thing will happen.
Li Er and Li Kuan didn't know about these things, they saw those people avoiding them from afar, and they didn't mean to stop and ask, after all, they had other things to do. The carriage drove by, Dada's hooves striking on the frozen earth, with a crisp sound like a piece of music.
When the Black Stone Mountain arrived, the two got out of the car, and Li Er looked at the Black Stone Mountain, which seemed to be more than a mound, and couldn't help but be a little puzzled: "Kuan'er, does your master really need so much charcoal?" You must know that the coal here is no less than a million catties, covering an area of more than 100 acres. Could it be that there are seniors in your division who will have the great power to move mountains and seas? Li Er is still not so convinced of Li Kuan's rhetoric in his heart, even if Li Kuan shows all kinds of signs, but it is still within the reach of manpower, Li Er has also seen the trick of taking things empty-handed, and he also knows the ventriloquist of changing his voice. Li Er doesn't know whether that knowledge is true or false, although it sounds very reasonable.
It's just that what he can't understand is the secret method that makes charcoal can't burn, you must know that although there are not many people using charcoal now, because a few years ago, Chang'an people used a lot of charcoal, but it caused a few people to die bizarrely, so they slept at home and died directly in their sleep. What they all have in common is that they lit a charcoal stove in the house, which made the people of Chang'an afraid, and now they only use charcoal in open places, and during the day. They thought it was something unclean, clinging to the coals, and the sun was shining during the day, so they were not afraid.
"Father, it's not that troublesome. Children can do it themselves! As soon as Li Kuan arrived at the foot of the Black Rock Mountain, he heard the system prompt.
"Ding, a large number of low-level energy carriers were found, all of them are hosts, and they are not hidden underground, and they meet the conditions for absorption, do they absorb them?" The cold voice of the system made Li Kuan's blood boil.
"I didn't expect the open-pit coal mine to be directly absorbed, it's just amazing, I originally wanted to fool my cheap father and let him help him mine it!" Li Kuan thought so in his heart, and his face also showed a look of great joy. If Li Er hadn't been asking him on the side, he would have jumped up directly.
"So, can you show your father?" Li Er asked, you must know that many secret schools are taboo to show their methods in front of outsiders. That's why Li Er asked.
"Why not!" Li Kuan knows his own family affairs, where are there any scientists, and what is not his own word! So he generously let Li Er watch it, anyway, the system progress bar can only be seen by Li Kuan himself.
"Then, my father will watch Kuan'er cast a spell!" Li Er watched with interest, this was another test of the scientists, to see how their methods were compared to the soldiers. Li Er knows the descendants of the military family, and I have to say that he uses soldiers like gods. But there is not much mystery, and Taoism is much more mysterious, but there are only a limited number of people who can make Li Er unable to see the depths, and the rest are just swaggering and pretending to deceive.
"Start absorbing!" Li Kuan snorted coldly in his heart, but his hands also formed a handprint. This is the great mudra of the Tibetan tantric sect in later generations, thanks to the anime of the island country in the later generations, those cool handprints in the divine horse Uzumaki Naruto, so that Li Kuan of later generations came to be interested, and checked the domestic mudra secret technique on the Internet, the most famous of which is the tantric mudra and the nine-character mantra seal, but the nine-character mantra seal is the law seal used by Taoists and military habitual offenders, Li Er will definitely know, so Li Kuan can only choose the tantric mudra.
Li Kuan sat cross-legged, this time he had a lesson and brought a cushion. The hands form the meditation seal, which is turned into the wisdom fist seal, and then turned into the Dharma wheel seal. Li Er was fascinated by it, and felt that these handprints contained some deep meanings, some shadows of Buddhism. But he didn't think about it deeply, although he was rescued by the thirteen Shaolin monks, Li Er didn't have much affection for Buddhism. So he didn't have an in-depth understanding of these, but he just thought that Master Li Kuan had intercepted some of the essence of Buddhism. Li Kuan used the seal of law that was handed down in later generations, which was also different from the one commonly used in the Tang Dynasty thousands of years ago.
Although Buddhism still has a high monk, but only know that the world to give money to the monk more, the world is in chaos, those monks are taking the opportunity to occupy a lot of fields, Buddha statues with copper cast over and over again, the world's copper coins are smelted by them more than half. Li Er even had the idea of destroying the Buddha for a while, but because of the little incense in Shaolin, he did not implement it.
Li Er was fascinated, but Li Kuan was roaring in his heart: Lao Tzu made a fortune this time, hahaha...... Lao Tzu is not a tuberculosis ghost anymore!
