Chapter 16: Li Xian's First Pot of Gold

Placing tap stone behind the tomb door is a very effective means used to put down in ancient times, which makes many tomb robbers sigh with admiration, knowing the difficulty and retreating, until the modern period, the great warlord Sun Dianying in the time of robbing the Dongling, but also placed the tap stone tomb door blocked outside, and finally had no choice but to use explosives to force blasting, and there was no explosives in the Tang Dynasty, such a tomb door for ordinary tomb robbers almost means that there is no hope.

But who is Li Xian? In his previous life, he was the grandmaster of tomb robbers, and he was the culmination of both the north and the south, and a method like the tap stone was simply easy for him to capture.

Ni Lai put his ear next to Li Xian's mouth, and after the other party quietly told him the method of opening the tap stone, he still couldn't believe it in his heart, it was just a wooden board, an iron bar with a ring called a turning needle, such a strange and simple tool, unbelievable method could actually move the tap stone away?

But when Ni Lai did what Li Xian had explained, he found that this method really worked, a wooden board was able to lift the heavy stone bar, and the crutch needle was able to hold the stone bar so that it would not fall over, and at the same time, the others pushed the stone door without the stone bar, and the tomb door was opened!

Although it has become a reality that the tomb door has been opened, Ni Lai's heart is shocked, is this young prince a god descending into the world? Otherwise, why so many wonderful ideas?

Even Li Xian, who was accustomed to his miraculous skills, was shocked, and the expressions of the other bandits were even more conceivable, their mysterious backstage methods were simply superb, and many people could not solve the problems that they could not solve for thousands of years were easily solved, is there a problem in this world that he can't solve?

Therefore, since Li Xian revealed this hand, all the bandits have been subdued by the means of his temple, even if Li Xian does not use force to deter, they are all sincerely willing to serve Li Xian, not for anything else, but for them to see a brighter future, although this future is still to be thieves, but let them thieves get more benefits.

After the tomb door was opened, there was a long tomb road, and at this time, all the tomb roads were built like a labyrinth, and ordinary people couldn't even distinguish the direction when they came here, let alone enter the tomb to steal, but Li Xian didn't know why, he actually came directly to the tomb all the way unimpeded.

When Li Xian led everyone into the tomb, everyone was shocked by the scene in front of them: the luxurious tomb was full of pearls and jade, silk and silk, antique calligraphy and painting, as well as gold and silver, swords, terracotta figurines, coins and other things, in addition, there were more than 20 pieces of ancient bronze artifacts, including bronze tripods, bronze mirrors, bronze bells and other objects, after Li Xian's identification, most of these bronzes were made from the late Spring and Autumn Period to the middle of the Warring States Period, and it was obviously the tomb owner who wantonly looted and excavated the ancient tombs.

According to Li Xian's rough estimate, the value of these properties is at least 100,000 yuan, in addition to the agreed share, which can only be obtained by himself!

You must know that at that time, when Li Tang was in his prime, the price was not high, and he could buy more than 200 buckets of rice with money, and a good iron horizontal knife was only two times, and an official horse was about 25 times, even if he bought a slave, a sturdy slave was only about 50 times.

It can be seen from this that if Li Xian's 100,000 yuan of wealth is really spent on recruiting troops and buying horses, he can organize into a private army composed of thousands of sturdy slaves on horseback and with knives!

Of course, even if Li Xian is rich, he will not dare to do this at this time, even secretly, because once he is suspicious of the emperor, even if he has ten times and a hundred times the financial resources, it will only end up being a tragic death, and then he will be charged with rebellion in the history books.

In fact, even Li Xian didn't expect that this Ma Hu was just a middle-class official of the Great Sui, and the treasures in the tomb were so rich, which shows how serious the wind of thick burials in the Sui Dynasty should be? It can also be seen why so many people in history are willing to be tomb robbers without production, and even male lords like Cao Cao rely on tomb robbers to accumulate wealth and support the army?

Li Xian forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, distributed the wealth according to the established plan, and then counted the wealth he had gotten, but then he was worried: Where should such a rich wealth be hidden?

The space of his palace is not small, but it is precisely the worst place to store his belongings, because it is impossible not to alarm outsiders if such a large amount of property is put into the palace, and once it is known to outsiders, it is probably not far from the period when his secrets are exposed.

But before he finished solving this problem, there was a new trouble, this trouble was not because of the unfair distribution of wealth, in fact, Li Xian did what he said, and gave the three components of wealth to Ni Lai, Ni Lai was also very fair to divide the wealth, everyone was extremely satisfied with this, but it was precisely because of this that someone took the initiative to suggest that in fact, Tufuzi also had a treasure trove, and the property there should be worth at least 100,000 yuan, and they suggested that Li Xian also distribute these ill-gotten gains to the brothers.

Li Xian naturally couldn't object to this, and even if he agreed, it caused him to not have enough space to store those belongings, and he couldn't help but fall into deep distress.

Fortunately, Li Xian can be regarded as having experienced two lifetimes, and he has rich experience, thinking of the practice of some people who have experienced and heard about laundering money in his previous life, his eyes lit up, and he suddenly had an idea, and gently beckoned Ni Lai over, and said to him: "Ni Zhuangshi, there is a proposal, I don't know if the strong man agrees?" ”

"I wonder what the Lord commands? But it doesn't hurt to say that. Ni Lai knew that what Li Xian said must involve property, but at this time, people are swordsmen, and I am fish and meat, so I am afraid that there is no way to disobey them, so I have to pretend to be generous and say generously.

How did Li Xian not know that Ni Lai had a misunderstanding about himself? But now that the arrow is on the bow, he can't help but send it, so he gently patted the other party's shoulder, and then said with a smile: "The strong man doesn't have to be nervous, he doesn't want to regret it, but thinks about how to turn these stolen goods into our real property." Oh, the strong man should know that our property is not coming from the right way, and we dare not buy a house or land at all, so we can only squander it at will, and as a result, the money is like water, scattered and not gathered. It's just a pity that he can't keep it for his wife. Now there is a plan to make our money accumulate and spend in an open and honest way, and we don't have to worry about breaking the ban. ”

"I don't know if it's big, what is the wisdom of the sir? The villain is willing to listen. Li Xian's words reached Ni Lai's heart, in fact, he has been thinking about these problems for the past year, but because the property he got is generally not enough for daily expenses, he didn't think about it deeply, and now he suddenly got wealth, and when he heard Li Xian say this, he naturally thought it was true, and hurriedly asked Li Xian.

But seeing Li Xianhe smiled and said: "This matter is not difficult, we can use the goods for business, everyone together into shares, the goods obtained are divided proportionally, a certain can find a way to issue a public inspection for everyone, the office and other things, but after all, this matter is not small, a person can issue a public inspection and a certificate for up to five people, and the others, etc., can be solved by local officials as a businessman after the public inspection and the office is issued." Since then, the wealth in our hands can be turned into money, buy houses and land at will, and support our wives. ”

"Mr. Wonderful Strategy, presumably the brothers will agree, do not hide from Mr., in fact, we are all forced by life, so we have no choice but to be thieves, if we have a serious life, and can be rich, who is not satisfied and happy? If Mr. can help generously, we will definitely put the grass in the ring, in order to repay Mr. for his great virtue, it will be a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, and we will not frown. ”

Ni Lai was thrilled when he heard this, overjoyed, and then happily made Li Xian's plan public, these people did not disapprove, but they were secretly worried that Li Xian would be discredited and take the opportunity to embezzle everyone's property, Li Xian saw this, so he signed a contract with everyone, and at the same time swore an oath to prove his sincerity.

Although Ni Lai knew that Li Xian was forced to keep it secret and did not use his real name, he did not have the slightest doubt about Li Xian's sincerity, and at the same time, there was a deep gratitude in his heart.

Seeing that Li Xian was such an identity, the bandits were able to make a contract with them and make an oath, and naturally they were all excited, and they all applauded loudly and applauded Li Xian's proposal.

At the moment, everyone unanimously decided to form a caravan, with Ni Lai as the chief shopkeeper, and take half of the profits, and at the same time Li Xian sent another person to represent him as the second shopkeeper, the second shopkeeper is not involved in business operations, but is responsible for dealing with the government and solving the worries for the team, but it is stated in advance that the second shopkeeper will go to the caravan headquarters regularly or irregularly to negotiate with the big shopkeeper directly about government affairs, and no one else shall contact him without permission.

In addition, after Li Xian's proposal, the two sides added another article, Li Xian as the general backstage, responsible for providing new products and trade routes for the caravan, and the caravan will give Li Xian an extra profit of one to two percent depending on the situation.

After such a toss, Tiandu is close to the fourth watch, Li Xian led the thieves to first pull the treasure into the secret warehouse of Tufuzi before, and then in the name of hunting, sent two teams of palace guards to guard there for a whole half a month, only then did all the formalities for doing business be completed, and through Ni Lai's activities, he rented a shop in Nanshi, and his shop was finally opened.

Li Xian's shop was a jewelry and antique shop, naturally dealing in treasures stolen from tombs, but he also hired a large caravan to travel to the Western Regions to trade in silk and porcelain in pursuit of longer-term profits.

Of course, this is only the initial plan, after which Li Xian is also ready to expand the store, open silk, spices, restaurants, tea shops and other trade, so that his shops throughout the three cities of Luoyang, because he knows that in the near future, his "queen mother" Wu Mei will encourage Gaozong to go to Luoyang, and at that time, Luoyang is really an inch of land, not to mention a store, even the land will definitely grow several times or even dozens of times.

After several months of tossing, Li Xian finally gained a firm foothold in Luoyang and had a certain economic foundation. After having a certain economic strength, Li Xian began to implement the Jin Yuan policy, taking advantage of the fact that the Empress Wu was pregnant, and quietly enveloped the eunuchs and maids in the palace, and initially established his own intelligence network.
