After hearing what he said, Li Xi nodded, his mind was racing, and he thought, find the emperor to be the backstage...... That's a good idea.

As for the eldest princess Yuzhen...... I haven't heard of it, it's still a Taoist priest, the princess is a Taoist priest, that's the female crown, it is said that the female crown of the Tang Dynasty is very messy, this, it's better not to provoke.

At this time, he was smitigating the eldest princess Yuzhen who he didn't know at all, but he turned his head and asked the shopkeeper with a smile, and said: "The three people recommended by the shopkeeper are all appropriate, but it is said that the ninth prince is about to pay homage to the prime minister, why didn't the shopkeeper mention him at all?" ”

The shopkeeper didn't know if he was excited, but when he heard this, he immediately shook his head and said, "No, no, never!" ”

Li Yifeng's face couldn't help but turn dark when he heard this, and he turned his head to look at Li Xi.

He naturally knew that Li Xi was Zhou Qiong's eldest disciple, and Zhou Qiong was Zhang Jiuling's fast son-in-law, and when he heard that the shopkeeper was so disdainful of Zhang Jiuling, he immediately felt a little big, and he was afraid that he would anger Li Xi with his words.

This shopkeeper was dug up by him with great difficulty, although he has been unpopular over there, but at first sight, Li Yifeng felt that he was a business wizard, so he took great pains to pull it over, and then he handed over all the affairs of Chang'an Jiannan Burning Spring to him without doubt.

Even at the moment, when the shopkeeper came to speak, he always looked and listened with a smile, but he had some intention of showing off to Li Xi, naturally he didn't want to anger Li Xi because of a few digressions, Li Xi was unhappy, if he wanted to get rid of the shopkeeper in a fit of anger, in Li Yifeng's opinion, he would lose a lot of money.

In his Li Yifeng's view, this ability to do business, and the ability to be an official, as well as the ability to compose poetry, easy to learn and difficult to work, you want to do a small business, then you only need to be careful to count the accounts to coax the guests, it is already qualified, and then a little more powerful businessman, then you must be able to know the market before and after three months, that is to say, not only to be able to understand the details, but also to have a view of the overall situation, to be able to grasp the trend of the market, in this way, in order to be at the helm of a big store. But even so, it is just a big businessman in the ordinary sense, and when it comes to officialdom, it can be done in history.

But obviously, it is not enough for a person who can take the helm for Jiannan to burn the spring and chase Chang'an, and even become the general manager of the Li family in the real sense. He must also understand politics and know how to advance and retreat.

As the saying goes, "the combination of government and business is invincible", a businessman who does not know the direction of the political wind may be lucky and can jump up in three or five years, but the downfall is just a blink of an eye.

If you want to do business in Chang'an, if you want to do business all over the world, you obviously can't do it if you don't understand politics. Whether you admit it or not, the people who have been successful in business in all dynasties and dynasties are all behind-the-scenes political masters with precise vision.

In his opinion, the person in front of him who was appointed by himself as the shopkeeper of Jiannan Yaochun Chang'an Store is a person who has the qualifications and ability to become the top businessman in Datang.

Although he knew that Li Xi's knowledge was even more profound than his own, although he was young, his grasp of the general trend of the imperial court seemed to be unusually accurate, but when the shopkeeper worked for the shop before, he was disliked because he liked to sell these suggestions to his owner, and even laughed at him for a time, giving him the nickname of "Dongshi Fangliang Country".

What does this "Fangliang Country" mean? Fang, refers to the Tang Dynasty's founding sage Fang Xuanling, Fang Xuanling's final title is Liang Guogong, the reason why he was given this nickname is not to praise him for being good at strategic politics, but in fact, it is disdainful and sarcastic: you are a small businessman, talking about this minister and that minister all day long, as if you are the founding sage Liang Guogong Fang Xuanling, and the court needs you to be in charge of the court. You are a little businessman, and the big politics of the court are your business!

With such a precedent, Li Yifeng was naturally afraid that Li Xi would not like the shopkeeper to comment on state affairs so much, not to mention that it was directly involved in Li Xi's mentor Zhang Jiuling.

However, to his surprise, Li Xi only frowned slightly, and did not show how unhappy he was, but after thinking about it, he asked in wonder, "Why?" Why not? ”

The shopkeeper kept his head down, obviously not seeing that Li Yifeng's face had changed color, and after hearing the words, he replied, "Jiuling has a demeanor, is upright, and praises the government and the opposition, but he is too upright, and the enemies are everywhere!" No matter how capable a person is, once he offends too many people, it is not good. ”

After a pause, he frowned tightly and said: "Yes, the villain concludes that if the Ninth Elder Princes do not worship the Prime Minister, then he may have been in the official position until the end of his life, because as long as he does not worship the Prime Minister, his status will not be so conspicuous, and some people will attack him, and His Majesty will also be considerate of such a lonely minister as him, and if the Ninth Age Princess, once he worships the Prime Minister, he will be degraded for three or five years at most, or half a year at the least!" ”

Speaking of this, he sighed, spread his hands, and seemed to be very worried about the government, and said: "But the problem at the moment is that the two ministers of the DPRK and the Chinese ...... fight with each other, and His Majesty is displeased from time to time.

"Presumptuous!"

Li Yifeng, who had been listening to his nonsense with trepidation, lest he say something would take a chance, finally couldn't listen to it anymore, and immediately took the case. reprimanded: "The shopkeeper of a shop, An dares to talk about national affairs!" ”

As he spoke, he also took a sneaky look at Li Xi with his eyes.

Of course, he didn't believe the nonsense of this shopkeeper, like this general trend of the court, to be honest, I am afraid that even His Majesty the current emperor could not predict it in advance, and he was a small shopkeeper, so naturally he had no reason to know. However, in his opinion, it is rare for this person to have his own unique thinking and judgment among businessmen, so although he is angry at this time, he is actually protecting him, lest he really anger Li Xi if he continues to talk about it.

Who knew that at this time, Li Xi turned his head to look at him, but beckoned to him and said, "Mr. Li, don't worry, sit down, sit down." Turning his head and seeing that the shopkeeper had eaten Li Yifeng's slap, he was already frightened and stood up, holding a tea bowl in his hand, his hands and feet had no place to land, his face was also sallow, and after a moment's effort, it seemed that beads of sweat were oozing on his forehead, so he smiled and said to the shopkeeper's kind face: "Don't be afraid, sit down, sit down, what is your name?" Where are the people? If you have any other thoughts, just say them. ”

The shopkeeper sat down when he heard the words, looked at Li Yifeng, and then looked at Li Xi, looking like he wanted to say something, and finally said: "The villain's name is Luo Kedi, a native of Jingzhao Wannian, and he is Chinese New Year's Eve two years old today. ”

Speaking of this, he looked at Li Yifeng's face, and couldn't help but whisper: "The example of Xingyang Cave Spring is in the past, and the son must not ...... Don't be careless! Then he was so frightened that he quickly lowered his head, not daring to look at Li Yifeng again.

Li Xi smiled when he saw this, turned his head to look at Li Yifeng, and Li Yifeng was slightly embarrassed.

It is not difficult to imagine that before Li Xi came, Li Yifeng must have told him that he could rest assured to express his thoughts and opinions, and what else he could say should never be said casually, but obviously, Li Yifeng didn't expect Li Xi to suddenly ask about Zhang Jiuling, so he didn't tell him about this, and then this Luo Kedi started talking nonsense.

Li Xi smiled, picked up the teacup and took a shallow sip, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.

This Roque enemy has a very atmospheric name, but in fact, he is not tall, and the description is almost obscene, and now sitting on the Hu chair, it seems that there is only a handful of small bones left under the wide sleeves of his robe, especially his eyes, which are narrow and hanging downward, his eyebrows are almost none, and there are still two whiskers on his lips...... In short, he is not a good person at first glance.

So when he first came over, in fact, Li Xi also had a little contempt in his heart, and he didn't care about him until he put forward his evaluation of Li Linfu, and then he really paid attention to his words. And when he talked about his understanding of Zhang Jiuling, Li Xi couldn't help but gasp in his heart.

Li Xi has a limited understanding of history, but he still knows a little about some well-known figures.

For example, he knew that Li Linfu, the famous prime minister, had been the prime minister for nearly twenty years, so he had a foundation for an account in his stomach, and after careful calculation, Yang Yuhuan was only fifteen years old at the moment, and it was estimated that in these two years, he should marry Li Mao, the king of life, and then it would be a few years after marriage before he was snatched away by Tang Xuanzong, it is said that Yang Guifei was only in her thirties and less than forty years old when she died, and when she died, it was naturally the time when the Anshi Rebellion occurred...... According to the records in the history textbook, Yang Guifei still has more than 20 years to live, and when she died in the Anshi Rebellion, Li Linfu was already dead, and Yang Guozhong was already the prime minister at that time. Therefore, Li Linfu's appearance on stage to pay homage to the prime minister is close at hand, and then Zhang Jiuling will soon pay his respects, but after the prime minister, he will soon be finished.

Because the timetable in the history textbook has been set, he must squeeze out enough time for Li Linfu's 20 years of power, otherwise these historical times will not be worth the account...... Li Xi's methods are very stupid, and many of them can only be rough estimates, and then from this rough estimate to roughly speculate about another thing, in the eyes of those who are well versed in history, this crude method is hardly worth a gimmick...... But for Li Xi, this is already the most and most accurate inference he has made about some of the things he could have remembered. And Li Xi knows that even if there will be some errors in the timetable he estimates, this error will definitely not be too big.

So he had always felt that although he didn't know much, he could also be called a man of God who could know the past and the future. In this way, when facing a lot of things about the movements of the imperial court, he consciously felt very confident in his heart.

But don't forget, he relied on the memories he brought with him when he traveled back in time to lay the foundation.

And the guy in front of him, who has two whiskers and is obscene at first glance, can make such an almost accurate guess based on his own observation of the government.

What's more, he's just a small businessman, uh, no, in fact, it's correct, he's not even a businessman, he's just a small guy in the East Market, and he has only been a little white-collar worker until now...... A proletarian worker!

This one...... It's amazing.
