After listening to Tianling, the emperor looked at Tianling with a bit of scrutiny in his eyes, "Do you know what he sells?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, I don't know the little one, I only know that it is something for scholars." The Heavenly Spirit replied.

The emperor snorted, "You don't even know what he sells, and you dare to give him silver?" Aren't you afraid that he will lose money, and all your money will be wasted? ”

"Xiao thought about it, he is doing the business of readers, there are so many readers in the world, and this is the capital, there are so many readers who enter Beijing to take the exam, how can it not be opened." The Heavenly Spirit replied quickly.

Seeing that Tianling didn't hesitate at all, the emperor secretly pondered, is this really the case? But why did he always feel that something was wrong?

"I really don't know?" Why did he not believe it so much!

"The little one is thinking about it, the little one is young now, and he doesn't need those yellow and white things much to serve His Majesty, even if the person's shop can't be opened and closed in the end, His Majesty's shop for rewarding me is still there, and there is still a place to rely on." Tian Ling paused at this point before he continued, "Is it a small want to gamble, what if you make a profit?" No worries anyway. ”

The Emperor walked up to the Heavenly Spirit, "Do you want to know what he's selling?" ”

"Little dare to guess, is it the bookshelf they just talked about?" The Celestial Spirit pretended to be cautious and wanted to shake his wit.

When the emperor saw him like this, although he was smart, he was not enough to have a city, and he should not be so far-reaching.

At this time, Gonggong Hai walked in and shook his head lightly at the emperor.

The emperor finally completely relieved himself at this time, since he couldn't find out the contacts, everything should be a coincidence.

When he spoke again, his expression was extremely kind, "You made the right bet!" ”

"Really! Just now, the scholars said that ten taels of silver are on one side! The Heavenly Spirit pretended to be overjoyed, and didn't care if the palace was out of order, because he knew that the emperor, who was about to attack his silver, didn't care about it.

Sure enough, the emperor didn't blame him, and laughed with him, "Tianling, you are really a little lucky star!" ”

After that, he stretched out his hand and patted Tianling's shoulder, "You are now on an errand in my library, you should know that my library has a lot of books and classics, so mold, damage, and insect damage cannot be avoided." ”

"You've just heard this kind of bookshelf that the scholars are talking about. Oh, it's the kind of bookshelves you sell in your shop, my library, in fact, I really need to bring in a batch of new bookshelves like this. The emperor sighed, "The world comes first, my library is not as good as the people living and working in peace and contentment, I am now empty in the treasury, and silver is needed everywhere, I really can't allocate silver to the library anymore, but the loss reported by the scholars every year, my heart hurts!" ”

After saying that, he looked at Tianling eagerly, and almost opened Tianling's mouth and pulled out a few words from his throat that he wished to share his majesty's worries.

The emperor has handed over the words here, and Tianling feels that if he doesn't take out the silver today, it is estimated that he will not be able to get out of the gate of the Tianqian Palace.

Although he didn't value the silver so much, it was like a dish he had made, even if he didn't want to eat it much, but someone else scooped it away with a spoonful of meat and soup, and he felt aggrieved no matter how he thought about it.

No, you can't let the emperor take advantage of it in vain!

Tianling's mind was spinning, and he thought of the letter Zuo Wen brought to him last time, saying that there were many people who booked the active bookshelf, and he was in short supply of manpower and wood, so he had to push down many people who had ordered.

Emperor, you don't have any money, do you? It's okay, you have mountains! You've got someone!

When Tianling thought of this, it was a big gift to bow down, "Your Majesty, don't worry!" Little one, please complete the replacement of the bookshelves for His Majesty! ”

The emperor was stunned by Tianling's words, this little minion looks very clever, how can he talk nonsense, who asked you to change the bookshelf for me?

"Heavenly Spirit, I am very pleased that you can think of me, but how are you going to change those bookshelves for me? Listen to you, your shop has three profits? "The emperor looked at the heavenly spirit, what I said this time is clear enough, right?

"Back to Your Majesty, exactly, so please ask Your Majesty to allow Tianling to supervise the replacement of the bookshelves in the library building for Your Majesty. Tianling is willing to use the three profits in his hand to complete all the replacement of the bookshelves in the library building for His Majesty! Tianling raised his head and looked directly at the emperor, "Your Majesty doesn't need to pay a penny of silver, and you can help Your Majesty earn back a sum of silver, Your Majesty only needs to agree to a small request!" ”

The emperor had been in a high position for a long time, and he was not carried away by the fact that he could earn back a sum of silver without having to pay a penny, and directly promised Tianling, but took the lead in asking, "What conditions?" ”

"Nowadays, most of the timber in the capital is transported from Dongshan, but because of the ban on logging, there is a fixed number of timber in the capital every year, and if there is a big construction project, the timber will be in short supply." Tianling continued, "The little one thinks that the bookshelves in the shop can be sold for ten taels of silver a piece, and it has a lot to do with the price of wood. ”

"Go on." The Emperor said.

"This year, the construction of shops in the west of the city used a large part of the wood, and the remaining wood was not much, and then the bookshelves were highly sought after, resulting in the already scarce wood becoming more and more expensive, and the price of the bookshelves was naturally even higher."

"The small one thought about it for a while, and the small three-component profit is far from enough to replace all the bookshelves in the library."

"Besides, even if it is enough, the wood in the capital is not enough to support the replacement of all the bookshelves in the library."

"So we can only solve the problem at the root."

"That's the supply of wood." Tianling bowed down again, "Please Your Majesty build an official road from Jiangshan to the capital!" ”

The emperor looked at Tianling, his expression did not show joy or anger, "Cultivating officials must recruit people's husbands, and I finally calmed down the people's grievances, are you letting me provoke it again?" ”

"Your Majesty!" Tianling was not frightened by this question, "If you levy the people's husband and pay the wages, there will be no resentment among the people." ”

"Wages?" The emperor snorted coldly, "What do you give?" Is it my empty treasury, or is it your tripartite profit? It's really unbelievable! ”

The emperor felt a little ridiculous, he really thought that this little slave could come up with a way just now.

"Neither." In the face of the emperor's questioning, Tianling was not afraid at all, "Take the merchants of the two places to give, with the wealth and glory that the capital can bring!" ”

The emperor's disappointed look ignited hope, but immediately extinguished it again, and shook his head, "No, businessmen are the most cunning, and they will never buy it if they have no interests, and if they come by force, it will cause resentment among the people." ”

"Then let them see the benefits." Tianling smiled confidently, "Let them know that if they want to get rich, they must first build roads." ”
