"Go away, go away"

Hearing that his daughter was knocking on the door again, Li Heng shouted angrily.

Although this depressing career as a prince has allowed him to develop a forbearant temperament, joy and anger are rarely in color. But today it's a little bit out of control.

Li Lan was silent for a moment, and then continued to knock on the door: "Father, my daughter heard some rumors yesterday. ”

The eunuch maid had already been driven away by Li Lan, so she was the only one in front of the entire palace. After Li Heng drank two sentences, he also realized that something was wrong, he was too out of shape, and if it reached the ears of his father, he was afraid that it would increase his suspicion. He calmed down, got up from the couch, and opened the door himself: "Come in." ”

Li Lan saluted Li Heng and entered the door, she reflexively wanted to close the door, but Li Heng waved his hand and said, "No need to close it." ”

After all, he got out of the panic, and Li Heng began to regain his calm and forbearance. The door was open, firstly, there was no peeping on someone, and secondly, it was convenient for him to observe whether there was movement outside.

"Daughter, these days, I heard that the court is going to choose a princess and a relative."

"Huh?"

"I want to choose a princess and Xi, Khitan Khan and relatives."

"Again...... What's going on? Recently, Li Heng's mind was completely troubled by Wei Jian's case, so he didn't pay attention to this matter, hearing this, he frowned, choosing a princess and a relative, what does it have to do with him, why would his daughter come to report it with a blank eye?

Glancing at his daughter, Li Heng suddenly felt a little soft in his heart.

Although this daughter has no mother at the age of three, Concubine Wei is well educated and knows how to care about people, especially in her, there is a kind of family affection that is rare in the royal family. She is also very smart, and when she suddenly mentions the matter of marriage, there must be a reason.

Maybe you should listen to her......

Thinking of this, Li Heng hated Ye Chang even more, if it weren't for that guy, why would he need to ask a little girl who was only fourteen or fifteen years old

"These days, the twenty-nine aunts visited the princesses' mansions and the kings' mansions, and her daughter was with her." Li Lan opened his mouth and said: "On her side, my daughter inadvertently knew that there was a thing......

No matter how Li Heng and his daughter discussed, Ye Chang finally got out and rushed to Chang'an. At this time, the climate is warm, and the growth line of citrus is also a little further north than the other life, so the winter is not too cold. Ye Chang and the others hurried and finally arrived in Luoyang on the twelfth day of the first lunar month.

It is unrealistic to rush back to Xiuwu within three days, so not only did he not go home for the New Year, but he could only spend the Lantern Festival in Luoyang City.

"Ye Langjun has arrived"

Just outside Luoyang City, there were more than ten people from afar, and everyone had a happy smile on their faces. Ye Chang glanced at it and immediately dismounted: "Why are you here?" ”

"I heard that Ye Langjun was coming back, so everyone said, let the people who take turns to rest wait here" led by an old man in his fifties bowed to the ground: "Ye Langjun's life-saving grace, how can the villain not go out to greet him"

"Uncle Qin, this can't be helped." Ye Chang stepped forward to help him up: "It's just a little bit of effort, and it was you who really saved your life, or you waited for yourself."

"Ye Langjun is also humble."

This Qin Laozhang and others are the victims of the flood near Luoyang. In the winter of the second year of Tianbao, they were on the verge of despair, but Ye Chang came to Luoyang and gave them a way to live with the method of "work for relief".

Not only that, if they were just given a way to live, they would not be grateful to spontaneously come to a few miles outside the city to greet them, and more importantly, Ye Chang let them see hope, even if the land in their hometown was swallowed up by the powerful gentry, they could still have the hope of making money. Ye Chang selected 200 people from among them last year to go to the Zhuangzi of the princess of Mengzhou, and these 200 people earned more than 30 yuan last year, which was almost double the income when the family had a field before. This is pure income, food, drink and housing are all paid by Ye Chang, the food and clothing are not bad, and it can even be said that they are more decent than they used to be in the countryside.

It is left in Luoyang City, and it is also on the construction site, and there is a net income ranging from money to two per month. Those who do well even earn eight yuan a month

They naturally know that Ye Chang earns more, but those gentry and magnates also earn more, have they ever seen people who share their profits and have neither relatives nor sell themselves?

"Uncle Qin, how is the old year, there are no problems in terms of food and clothing, right?" Ye Chang pulled Uncle Qin and asked as he walked, with a very kind attitude.

"Tuo Ye Langjun's blessing, last year I and my two boys, a total of 60 yuan, Jia Guan treats everyone is not thin, you look at my clothes, tsk, but it is a good material, the little old man has lived for more than 50 years, and he has never worn such good clothes before......"

"Do you still want to go back to your hometown?"

"I think about it, the ancestral grave is there, but I can't go back, this heart, it's dead." Old Master Qin sighed and said, "I just ask the ancestors and ancestors not to blame us for our unfilial descendants......"

"The ancestors and ancestors naturally won't blame, you are so good at living, in the future, you will make a fortune and find land to settle down, and then move the grave and move the spirit." Ye Chang said with a smile: "If you can open the lintel of the leaf light, the ancestors and ancestors will only be happy, where will they be sad?" Guarding the family business passed down from the ancestors, the day and the moon are reduced, sitting on the mountain and eating empty, that is, living on the edge of the ancestors' graves, how can the ancestors and the ancestors praise? ”

This is the truth, but it may not be useful for others to say it, but when Ye Chang said it, Qin Laohan nodded vigorously: "Is it this reason, is it this reason, or Ye Langjun can say it clearly, I am stupid old man...... However, Ye Langjun, where do you say that the old man should go to find land to settle in the future? I don't know if Ye Langjun's Xiuwu side is good to move and settle down? ”

Ye Chang's eyes flickered: "Cultivating martial arts is naturally difficult, the entire Central Plains is now overcrowded, when you were young, you could see mountains and forests and trees everywhere, but now, the Central Plains is full of people."

Old Master Qin nodded again and again, he didn't think about it on weekdays, but now when he thinks about it carefully, it is indeed the case. When he was a child, that is, more than 40 years ago, the vicinity of Luoyang was full of mountains and forests. Nowadays, most of the mountains and forests have been cut down, the flat land has been set aside to grow grain and build villages, and the mountainous land is terraced with fruit trees.

"If this continues, in less than a hundred years, there will be more than just a little mud in the Yellow River." Ye Chang sighed again: "There is more and more sediment in the water of the Yellow River, and the reason is nothing more than that the trees cut down the grass and pull it up, and the rain washes the soil on the mountains into the Yellow River. ”

Qin Laohan nodded again, but now it was habitual. Ye Chang also smiled, this matter is useless to him, he doesn't understand. Only after another life, when the Yellow River has been cut off for more than 100 days a year and the riverbed is higher than the riverbank, can we understand that if the Guanzhong area continues to be cut down indiscriminately, the mother river of the Yellow River will become an unscrupulous wild dragon.

"If there is a place where the water and soil are rich and fertile, and the climate is ...... It's a little colder than ours, and it's farther away from Luoyang, Chang'an, would you like to move to settle down? Ye Chang asked.

"With such a place, why don't you want to go" Qin Laohan pondered for a moment: "Is there Tian?" ”

"Tian Guan is enough."

"Is it hard to get naturalized?"

"It is not difficult to say that naturalization is not difficult, it is not difficult to say, that is, as long as you want, you can become naturalized, it is not easy to say, if you want to get a land, but you need a family or a woman to serve in the conscription. However, the conscription over there is different from ours, and there is a salary to be paid for the conscription. ”

"Really? Such a great place."

"Not now, and there will be." Ye Chang laughed deeply.

They were talking speculatively, Nan Jiyun sighed in the back, and said in surprise: "What's the matter? ”

"Someone is going to be deceived again."

"What?"

"Isn't Ye Langjun kidnapping?" Nan Jiyun laughed.

"That's how you were kidnapped."

"Indeed, monk, how good are you, I have learned a martial arts, and I was originally a person who sells knowledge, monk, and you were abducted after a few meals of wine and meat......"

"The monk has a discerning eye, and he has already seen that Ye Langjun is extraordinary, if it is not a monk, in the future, the Daomen will be prosperous, and I will be able to follow him to pick up some soup." Shanzhi grinned.

The monk's words made Nan Jiyun stunned, he didn't expect this reckless monk to have such a scheming

"But also, Ye Langjun doesn't look down on Buddhism on weekdays, although at the beginning some people said that he had been enlightened by Wei Tuo, but he himself has always denied it, others say that he has dreamed of immortals, but he does not deny it...... However, monk, do you really think that the Daomen will prosper because of Ye Langjun? ”

"That's nature."

"Ye Langjun has this ability?"

"Within thirty years, he will become a ruler."

The two of them whispered, Ye Chang couldn't hear it, and accompanied by the old man Qin and other people who greeted him, they entered Luoyang City.

Only Chang's destination is the Grand View Garden, from he went to Longyou to now, half a year has passed, the Grand View Garden has also completed the basic framework, and the rest are some tinkering. It was a lively meeting with Jia Mao'er, Li Zhi and others in the Grand View Garden, and the yellow-shirted guest also stayed here at this time, Ye Chang patted his arm after seeing him: "Brother Han, you are just right here, there is something I want to discuss with you." ”

"I also have something to tell Brother Ye about it......" The yellow-shirted guest looked a little strange.

"Oh, Brother Han just has to say something"

"When I arrived in Luoyang, I learned about your methods, Brother Lu Daoye." The yellow-shirted man thought for a moment: "Especially the resettlement of those disaster victims...... Eleven Lang, I'm a cool person, do you think I can help anywhere? ”

Ye Chang's heart was suddenly happy, resettled the victims, some people thought that he was just a good person, but they didn't know that when these victims were settled, the living signboard could not only bring him more than 2,000 loyal subordinates, but also attract people like Nan Jiyun and Yellow Shirts who still had some chivalrous hearts

These people were originally at the bottom of the Tang Dynasty, but it doesn't mean that they have no talent. Like Nan Jiyun, archery is by no means below Li Sheng, and it is only because he has no chance to show his talent that he has been stumbling so far. The yellow-shirted guest is not the same as Nan Jiyun, the yellow-shirted guest is young and more impulsive, so when he saw the situation of the victims in Luoyang, he heard about Nan Jiyun's exploits in killing the dog Rong in Longyou in Chang'an, and he was immediately moved, and he intended to follow Ye Chang and seek a background.

"Brother Han is a cool person, and he is not false, and he is using Brother Han's wisdom and bravery." Ye Chang glanced at the yellow-shirted guest: "Brother Han has always respected the bearded guest the most, and he will let Brother Han do something that is not inferior to the bearded guest."

The yellow-shirted guest was overjoyed.

I also got the news of Li Bai and Du Fu here, Li Bai was originally waiting for Ye Chang and Gao Shi in Luoyang City, but because Ye Chang was detained, Gao Shi passed through Luoyang to meet him, plus a Du Fu who was a Jinshi Luodi, and several people saw each other very happily. After Gao Shi left Luoyang, Li Bai and Du Fu also went home separately, but they made an appointment and were going to go to Qilu together.

But there is also bad news, after He Zhizhang returned to his hometown, he died in the old year, although the news spread to Luoyang for some time, but Ye Chang only knows now.

For He Zhizhang, Ye Chang felt a little guilty in his heart, but it could only be like this, he secretly wrote down this matter, and if he had the opportunity in the future, he would definitely help He Zhizhang's descendants.

Jia Mao'er led Ye Chang around the Grand View Garden, the entire Grand View Garden project was completed, and many places began to be suitable for business, but there were not many shops inside, mainly Ye Chang's own shops.

"Eleven Lang, now it seems that our comprehensive market is not as good as expected." Jia Mao'er said worriedly: "There is only a thousand yuan of income a year, such a large area...... I don't know how many years it will take to earn back the money you invested. ”

In order to build the Grand View Garden, in addition to the investment in the construction of the garden itself, Ye Chang also gave Luoyang Mansion more than 100,000 yuan, which is only a thousand yuan per year, and this cost cannot be recovered in a hundred years. Ye Chang didn't panic, and said with a smile: "Now that I make money, I only rely on the book market, and the income is naturally limited." Brother Jia, don't worry, a large number of goods will be shipped in the second half of the year, and when the time comes, we will be exclusive in Luoyang City, and we are not afraid that there will be no customers."

Ye Chang knew very well why the business of Daguanyuan would be deserted, except for the book market, there was no one to compete for the time being, and the rest of the shops, whether they were selling groceries from the north and south or selling things from east to west, had already had competitors in Luoyang City. If you want to make the Grand View Garden a real one, you have to rely on unique products, and as for the unique products, they will soon be on the market.

"It's good to have Eleven Lang, and in the second half of the year, we will basically complete it."

"What about Mrs. Li, how is the situation on your side?"

"The situation in Yundelou is not enough to maintain now, although Lang Jun is full of strange ideas, but those artists are to be trained and recruited after all, and the flow of people in the entire Grand View Garden is not prosperous, so there are naturally not many people who come to Yundelou." Li Zhi heard the question himself, and said unhurriedly: "Lang Jun can only rest assured, before the second half of the year, he will finally enter the right path."

"It wasn't meant to happen overnight." Ye Chang was not surprised by this progress, his own person was not in Luoyang, and it was already remarkable that he could do this.

Looking at everyone, he pondered for a while, and then said, "Mrs. Li, we have some men's things to say, and I ask Mrs. Li to avoid it." ”

Li Zhi was stunned, she raised her eyes to look at Ye Chang, and seeing Ye Chang's insistent expression, she immediately got up and saluted: "Slave will go to ......"

"Lang Jun doesn't seem to be very polite to her......" After she left, Jia Mao'er was a little worried.

"It's also a test for her." Ye Chang looked at the people who remained: "Brother Jia, you and I have been friends for several years, and we have done a lot of great things together, so there is no need to say it." Shanzhishi, Nanba and I lived and died together in front of the battle, and Brother Han did a murderous deed for me just for Yinuo, and everyone was a lifelong friendship. Mrs. Li, she and we are not at this point now, and she can't listen to what I say next."

Everyone's expressions were awe-inspiring.
