Chapter Thirty-Eight: A Private Interview with Weifu (Part II)

In other words, Xu Yang feels that the Tang Dynasty is now becoming more and more like the coal-burning Europe in the sixties of the eighteenth century, and all kinds of steam cars burning coal and spitting black smoke have no sense of disobedience to a Tang people wearing traditional Hanfu, the scene is not weird, but there is a sense of unreality like a dream.

But in Li Er's eyes, this qiē is so novel and interesting.

After getting on the bus, Li Er carefully sat down according to the position Xu Yang pointed out, not because he was afraid of anything, but because today he wanted to pretend to be an ordinary person, which was a rather difficult challenge for a powerful emperor.

The conductor began to charge, the recent bus price has risen, ten yuan a class, when he walked to Li Er's side, Xu Yang was about to help Li Er pay, when he saw Li Er habitually took out a gold ingot, and handed it directly to the conductor without looking at it, waved his hand and said, "No need to look for it." ”

Although the conductor has carried it for more than a month, there are not a few squires and nobles who have seen it, but like this one in front of him, it is the first time he has encountered such a wealthy lord, and he still asked in disbelief: "This nobleman's fare is only ten yuan and ten taels of silver."

Li Er waved his hand casually and said, "Didn't this son give you enough money just now?" ”

"Enough, enough." The conductor nodded faster than a woodpecker, "It's just a nobleman, you just said you don't need to look for it?" ”

Li Er stared at the flight attendant and said in a commanding tone: "This son said that you don't need to look for it, and the rest will be rewarded to you." ”

Although Li Er's tone was very unkind, the flight attendant was still full of peach blossoms. It's almost time to kowtow to Li Er. Such a god of wealth. It is estimated that Li Er is fragrant even if he farts now.

After collecting the fare, the conductor began to explain enthusiastically: "Ladies and gentlemen, the next stop, Fuyun Qianzhuang, there are nobles who need to get off the train" It can be seen that he should be in a good mood at this time.

There was also a person sitting next to Li Er, in his thirties, with two moustaches. With a bloated body and a mink jacket, he looks like a full-fledged businessman.

Li Erzheng turned his head to look at the scenery outside the window, Xuanwu Street had changed too much, which made him feel a little excited and excited that he had never had before in his overwhelm.

"This brother." The merchant patted Li Er's shoulder and greeted him with a smile.

Li Er was very curious, and immediately turned around, the two guards of the Royal Forest Army behind Li Er were about to get up, but they were stopped by Xu Yang, Xu Yang could see what this mustache wanted to do, and let Li Er have a good time with ordinary people's addiction today.

"I just saw my brother's extraordinary move below. At first glance, he is a rich and noble person, the younger brother Teng Jianhu. He is also a businessman among the merchants in Chang'an, and it seems that he has never seen Brother Tai in Chang'an City, so he wants to make friends. The mustache's face was very sincere, but there was a shrewdness in his eyes.

How could Li Er not see that this was a person who wanted to stammer himself, and smiled faintly, Li Er said with great aura: "Oh? That's probably not so easy to make friends. ”

The businessman named Teng Jianhu was stunned for a moment, and asked curiously, "Why did Brother Tai say this?" ”

Li Er said a little lazily: "I," pointed to himself, and then pointed to the top, "But it has something to do with the top one in Datang." ”

Xu Yang almost didn't squirt out when he heard it in the back row, this Li Er can still have such a bad taste, fooling the dead is not worth his life, and it has something to do with the one at the top, you yourself are the one.

However, as soon as these words came out, the merchant was immediately stunned for a moment, and then exclaimed: "Are you a relative of the emperor?!" ”

Li Er smiled at the corner of his mouth, and nodded in acquiescence.

"Oops." That Teng Jianhu seemed to have found the organization all of a sudden, and the smile on his face was about to bloom like a chrysanthemum. "It's really a blessing for three lives, and a blessing for three lives."

Li Er seemed to remember something, pointed out the window and said, "When did this Xuanwu Street start to become so prosperous?" ”

That Teng Jianhu was still immersed in excitement, Li Er asked, he immediately replied: "You don't know, when today's Zi Majesty Xià abolished the curfew, this Xuanwu Street and Zhuque Street will not be as silent as before, and the number of hawkers is gradually increasing, and then Guiguzi invented the steam car we ride, and suddenly it was called a god by the people in the market, how many people have spent ten times to take this bus, after that, the route of this bus is full of all kinds of traders, It has formed a unique trading street in Xuanwu Street. ”

Although Teng Jianhu is a businessman, he is still very clever in stuttering, and he can explain things clearly in just a few sentences.

"Not bad, not bad." Li Er nodded approvingly and said: "My son really didn't expect this bus to have such an effect, and I will add a few more routes another day to make my Datang business more prosperous." ”

Listening to Li Er's tone, as if adding a bus line was as simple as eating and drinking, Teng Jianhu's face was even more flattering, and he said softly: "Where are you going?" The villain is very familiar with this piece, and if the nobleman needs it, the villain can show you the way. ”

Li Er actually thought about it for a while when he heard this, nodded and said, "Okay, it just so happens that this son has not been out for a long time, so I will listen to you tell me about this interesting story in Chang'an."

I have to say that this businessman is sharp-toothed, Teng Jianhu can't do anything else, but he is very good at talking about it, all kinds of lace news on the "Datang News", he knows all kinds of anecdotes, what Wei Zheng is a master who is afraid of his wife, what Chang'an's four princes failed the exam, what Jingkangfang's top daughter bought Xu Yang overnight, anyway, he can say all kinds of nonsensical news clearly, as if he had seen those things with his own eyes.

Li Er was frequently amused by him on the road, but Xu Yang couldn't stand it, when was it rumored that he had slept with eighteen prostitutes in the Qinglou, how could his good reputation be ruined.

After getting off the bus, Li Er waved his hand and asked Teng Jianhu to lead the way to see the flourishing business of the East and West Cities.

That afternoon, Li Er was very happy, and felt the prosperity and strength of Chang'an City, the dazzling goods, the bustling crowd gave him unparalleled confidence, he believed that what he saw with his own eyes was a prosperous world, not a dangerous country like Emperor Yang of Sui, that night Li Er returned to the palace and ordered someone to issue an edict, Xuanteng Jianhu as the household department to participate in the test, immediately took office, it is estimated that the fat businessman, in the middle of the night will wake up with a smile

"Your Majesty, Guiguzi invented the train, its purpose is to transport a large number of materials, manpower, save animal power and time, and reduce human labor more efficiently, once this thing is used, I think Your Majesty will soon know its benefits, the prosperous Tang Dynasty, just around the corner." Xu Yang said with an oath.

Li Er's eyes gradually became clearer, nodded, and said loudly: "Spread my will, build a train and railway from Chang'an to Luoyang, I want to see the prosperous Tang Dynasty in the mouth of Guigu with my own eyes!" (To be continued......)
