Back in Taoyuan, Li Chengqian was not in a hurry to return to Riyue Mountain.

It's a rare time, and many things should also be taken advantage of the opportunity to deal with it.

After placing the soldiers and horses near Zhuangzi, Li Chengqian took his own soldiers to Taoyuan City.

Changming Restaurant, when Li Dalang saw Li Chengqian, he hurriedly greeted him with a smile.

"I've seen Your Highness."

Li Chengqian waved his hand and said, "Arrange a private room." ”

When Li Chengqian sat down in the box, he asked, "How is the business lately?" ”

"Back to Your Highness, since the opening of the restaurant, it has been very popular." Li Dalang said, "I'll let someone bring the account book." ”

Waving his hand, Li Chengqian said: "No, let's talk about the profit since the opening, right?" ”

"More than a thousand." Li Dalang said with a smile on his face.

This profit is not low!

Initial domain name: m.

If it weren't for Niu Jinda and Chen Dingan, they might not have this benefit.

You must know that the other restaurants in Taoyuan City add up, and there may not be Changming Restaurant to make money.

Of course, this is also because Changming Restaurant monopolizes the high-end market, so it can achieve this miraculous effect.

As I said before, it's normal that every place, even a small one, has a group of people at the top of the food chain.

"Now that we're profitable, it's time to expand." Li Chengqian nodded.

Although the Ming court is short of money now, this thousand yuan is not a big deal.

Moreover, he has not forgotten what the purpose of this restaurant is.

Make hay?

To make money, he will not use such means.

"Originally, we were planning to open a branch in Lintan, but recently I heard that someone in Lintan has opened several restaurants in front of us, and they are also engaged in stir-frying." Li Dalang said.

Li Chengqian was not surprised by this.

Stir-frying, this thing, is not unusual, people who really want to ponder, can always figure out one or two, as for the taste and craftsmanship, it is just terrazzo after all.

"It doesn't matter." Li Chengqian said, "In a short period of time, they can't catch up with our technology, this is our advantage, and what we have to do is to maintain this advantage and make a name for ourselves, so that when people mention the restaurant, they will be the first to think of our Changming Restaurant......"

Li Chengqian had a lot of balabalas, and Li Dalang recorded them carefully on the side.

After explaining Li Dalang, Li Chengqian called Wu An again.

After inquiring, Li Chengqian said: "You can arrange the matter here, and go back to Sun Moon Mountain with this king this time." There are not enough manpower on your side, so when you go back to Sun Moon Mountain, you can choose some by yourself and see if there are any suitable people. ”

When the stall is widened, many things must be on the right track.

Wu An nodded, but didn't say much.

Then, Li Chengqian dined in the restaurant and waited for others by the way.

At the same time, Fang Yiai and others are quite cheerful in Zhuangzi.

Originally, Li Chengqian called these guys to go to Taoyuan City together, but none of these guys moved.

Didn't you come back just to show off?

In the past, the identity of the eldest son of the eldest grandson always had to suppress them, which made them very unhappy.

Moreover, this guy is the eldest grandson, he can pretend!

Sometimes it is very uncomfortable to put up a shelf.

There's no way, this year is humble and orderly, everyone still values this, where do you go to reason?

"Centurion, come, the last general will toast you!" Li Jingren held a wine glass and said, "On the battlefield, the centurion has no false arrows, and has made many military exploits, and in just a few days, he has jumped from a white body to a centurion, and the future will definitely be immeasurable." ”

At the banquet, Fang Yiai laughed and said: "Brother Jingren is not going to be a brother, I think that on that day, Brother Jingren took the lead, but among the brothers, he was the first true warrior to kill the enemy!" ”

"The centurion praised, if you want to say that the first to kill the enemy, it should be Brother Liang, who broke through the city that day, Brother Liang can be said to have the style of an old man, and he is the first to take the head of the enemy." Li Jingren hurriedly argued.

"Is that my mistake?" Fang Yiai said apologetically, "Brother Chu Liang don't be surprised, he is really confused for his brother, he actually remembered such an important thing wrong, it is really damned."

Like us, whose family background is mediocre and whose status is embarrassing, we can only rely on ourselves to fight the enemy bravely and fight a bloody way, so ignoring the merits of our elder brother, whether as a brother or as a centurion, it is a dereliction of duty for my brother.

Punish yourself for your brother, don't take it to heart. ”

"The centurion is serious." Cheng Chuliang immediately stood up with a wine glass and said, "It was a coincidence that day, it wasn't that the thief who was washed away by the army, and he wouldn't have let the little brother pick up a person's head."

But the centurion is right, our family is mediocre, and we are unable to inherit the family business, we can only rely on ourselves to fight a bloody way, speaking of which, I still envy the eldest grandson, who was born to be the life of the little grandfather, how can I wait like me? After fighting on the battlefield for a lifetime, I don't know if there is a chance to reach the height that the eldest grandson brother was born with.

Come, I propose, everyone toasts the little grandfather! ”

"Yes, yes, everyone, everyone toasts the little grandfather!"

Fang Yiai and others also shouted.

The eldest grandson is so angry!

Fuck, don't bring such a crowd!

Still from a mediocre family? You really have the face to say!

Originally, listening to their business blow to each other was enough for him, but when it came, he burned the fire on his head.

This made the eldest grandson Chong angry, but as the eldest son of the eldest grandson Wuji, he still had some self-cultivation, so he had to stand up at the moment and arch his hand: "It's still a comfortable life for your brothers, what is like being a brother, trapped in this little Taoyuan all day long, and I have to drink heavily every day and be depressed." ”

Eldest Sun Chong's words are intended to retreat into advance, don't you say that I can't bear it, and I can only rely on inheriting the family business? No, we don't meet this Huaicai, and we have nowhere to do it.

"The little grandfather is wrong." Li Jingren said, "This just shows that the little grandfather has a noble status, if ordinary people want to drink every day, but there is no such condition, not to mention the side, even he can't pay for this wine." ”

Li Jingren is even more lacking in morality, what are those you are metaphorizing? If we don't understand it, let's take it literally.

The most annoying thing is that you talk and others have to guess, I can't beat you!

When Fang Yiai heard this, he also said: "Yes, yes, this wine is not cheap, even if I am now promoted to centurion, I can't say that I drink every day for a year, and I can't support it for more than a month." ”

"Still a month?" The eldest grandson said disdainfully to someone here, "As far as your centurion is concerned, it is estimated that it is enough to buy a few jars of wine." ”

He's heard enough, too.

Fang Yi loves these guys, and as soon as he comes back, he invites everyone to have a banquet, which is nothing, and he will drink the banquet.

But you're boasting like that, it's too much!

No, when I seized the opportunity, I ridiculed it.

And when the eldest grandson heard this, he was helpless in his heart, he was really a pig teammate!

Sure enough, Fang Yiai was not angry at all, and when he heard the words, his face was even more abrupt: "This is the gap, even if we fight for a year, what we get in exchange is just a banquet for you." ”

"Second Fang, you are endless, isn't it because the servant of the house has broken your expenses, and you are teasing us here as soon as you come, what do you want?" Someone couldn't listen anymore and immediately stood up.

The point is that this bastard is too lacking in morality, just tease a few sentences, it has to be endless, everyone is young, who is angry with you?

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Cheng Chuliang hurriedly stood up and started the round, "I drank too much today and talked a lot, but it made you brothers see the joke." ”

Fang Yiai is also a personal essence, and he also arched his hand at the moment: "Yes, I drank too much, don't mind brothers, come, continue." ”

All of a sudden, the crowd began to drink and feast again.

Of course, it is inevitable that there will be guns and sticks in and out of the words, which makes Changsun Chong and others drink this meal very unpleasantly.

After waiting for them to leave the table laughing, everyone looked at each other.

Someone slapped the table angrily and said, "When did you get such a bird's breath?" ”

"So what can you do? People are here to show off. Someone shook his head helplessly and said, "Moreover, you have nothing to say, people have really made a name for themselves with their own skills." ”

"It's just a little centurion and a chief, when you return to Chang'an, who will start lower than this?" Just now, the pig teammate said disdainfully, "Wang Bati in Qujiang Pond has more than him when he sneaks out, what's there to do?" ”

But no one answered what he said.

It's a idiot.

It is precisely because the official position is not high that it shows that they fought hard with one knife and one gun.

Young people, who doesn't want to prove themselves?

"Brother Eldest Sun, don't you have an explanation?" Xiao Yue asked, he was Xiao Yu's son.

Eldest Sun Chong sighed and said, "What can you say?" Seriously, I also want to go to Sun Moon Mountain.

However, in a few months, 2,000 broke 7,000, and more than 3,000 were killed.

Now, the Ming Dynasty is the time to employ people, isn't it an opportunity for us to show our ambitions? ”

"Brother Eldest Sun is also planning to go to Sun Moon Mountain?" His words surprised Li Decheng very much.

Eldest Sun Chong nodded and said, "They can go, why can't we?" ”

Does he want to go?

In fact, he didn't know, and it didn't matter to him whether he went or not.

In the final analysis, he is going to inherit the title of the eldest grandson Wuji after all, and he doesn't take the credit too seriously.

The reason for such a change is just a letter from the eldest grandson Wuji.

Let him be sure to get involved, he doesn't care about the credit, the eldest grandson cares.

So, there is the current scene.

As for why you want to encourage everyone to go together, it's actually easy to understand.

If he goes alone, he can't be teased to death by Fang Yiai and others?

In any environment, having your own team is the most important thing, which is also what the eldest grandson Wuji has taught him since he was a child.

"I can definitely go." Xiao Yue said, "Although the guy Fang Lao Er is a little hateful, some of his words are actually not wrong, and he has indeed relied on his true skills to go from a white body to the present in just a few days."

This is also an opportunity for us. ”

Xiao Yue really valued the opportunity, he did three things at home, which was more embarrassing than everyone's situation.

If there is such an opportunity, it is natural to seize it.

Li Decheng also nodded, but didn't say much.

Li Jing also sent him a letter, without asking him what to do, and leaving everything to him to decide.

From this point of view, Li Jing is more like a father than the eldest grandson Wuji.

From Li Jing's point of view, of course he hopes that more things are better than less, he has been like this all his life, he is duty-bound, conscientious, and never stands in line or anything.

But this time it was an opportunity for Li De Award, and he gave the choice to Li De Award himself.

Eldest Sun Chong nodded and said, "I heard that His Highness has gone to Taoyuan City, and after His Highness returns tomorrow, I will discuss with His Highness, and everyone is ready to prepare." ”

In Changsun Chong's view, they are such a group of handsome and talented people, how can Li Chengqian have a reason to refuse? What's more, Fang Yiai, Cheng Chuliang, and these reckless Li Chengqian have all taken them in, how can they be exceptions?

At the same time, Li Chengqian finally waited for the guest he was waiting for today.

"Cui Mingyuan has seen His Highness." Seeing Li Chengqian again, Cui Mingyuan was like a world away.

When Li Chengqian left Jingyang, he watched him leave the city, and Li Chengqian at that time was only a dozen people.

But a few months have passed in the blink of an eye, and Li Chengqian is no longer the Li Chengqian of the past.

"I haven't seen you for a few months, but I forgot to congratulate Cui Bei on his ascension." Li Chengqian smiled, "Please take a seat." ”

After Cui Mingyuan sat down, he said, "I don't know what His Highness called the officials to come this time, what is the so-called matter?" ”

In fact, he is also a little confused, Li Chengqian's matter in Chishuiyuan, he has naturally heard about it, and knows a lot, every time he hears it, he sighs once.

But he didn't expect that Li Chengqian would take the initiative to invite him to come.

"I don't know what Cui Beijia thinks of this Taozhou?" Li Chengqian did not answer the rhetorical question.

Cui Mingyuan said: "It can't be compared with the land of Chang'an, but it is better than the people who are diligent, as long as they rest and recuperate for a few more years, they will have no worries about food and clothing." ”

He was reminding Li Chengqian, don't drag the war to Taozhou.

Taozhou can't afford it!

Li Chengqian smiled and said without saying a word: "Taozhou is already barren land, how difficult is it to grow food to support itself? ”

"What does Your Highness think?" Cui Mingyuan asked.

For Li Chengqian, he never dared to underestimate him, although he was not very old, but in terms of achievements alone, even he was not able to beat him.

If nothing else, let's just say that Li Chengqian's development in Chishuiyuan in a few months is what he is now, which is something he can hardly match.

Li Chengqian said with a smile: "I can't talk about it, but I have a humble opinion, I don't know if Cui Beijia is willing to listen to it?" ”

"Your Highness, please." Cui Ming said from afar, Li Chengqian called him from Lintan, there must be something, everyone is so busy, who will delay time if there is nothing to do?

"That's what the king thinks." Li Chengqian said, "Since Taozhou is already barren, it is better to find another way and open a field in Taoyuan." ”

"What is the Field?" Cui Mingyuan was a little puzzled.

This is a product of the Song Dynasty, but Li Chengqian remembered it confused, but he didn't care about it at the moment, and said: "It is a place for free trade between the two countries, and there is no ...... for each other."

To put it bluntly, it is a businessman.

Cui Mingyuan understood in an instant.

However, he is not a pedantic person, as long as he can improve the lives of the people, it does not matter what he does.

Moreover, the Taozhou generation really has to rely on farming to support the family, which is really a bit embarrassing.

"For the opening of the field, the lower officials can go to the court, but the lower officials have something unclear, and I ask His Royal Highness to solve their doubts." Cui Mingyuan said.

Li Chengqian nodded, and Cui Mingyuan continued: "As far as the officials know, in recent years, Tuyuhun has also been snowstormed for many years, I don't know what His Highness can take out to exchange it?" ”

"Don't worry about this." As he spoke, Li Chengqian pointed to the table in front of him and said, "See, just this table, if it is transported from Taoyuan to Chang'an, what does Cui Beijia think it will cost?" ”

Hearing Li Chengqian say this, Cui Mingyuan shook his head and said: "This table and chair is indeed novel, but it is not necessary, and its price is not cheap, who can afford it, the most important thing is that as long as this table and chair is a carpenter takes a few more looks, it can be made, and it is just a waste of money to be transported to Chang'an, and it is not a good business." ”

"Cui Bei is discerning." Li Chengqian said with a smile, "But Cui Beijia only saw what he saw in front of him, but he didn't see anything deeper." ”

"I hope to teach you." Cui Mingyuan arched his hand.

Li Chengqian said: "First, such tables and chairs are not sold to ordinary people, it is aimed at large households, so for ordinary people to afford the price, but for large households, what does it matter?

Second, this table and chair is indeed easy to imitate, just like the gloves that this king made in Jingyang last year, they are all things that can be seen at a glance. What does this mean?

It's not difficult to explain this thing, but why hasn't anyone made it before? Why did the king's subordinates look like this after they made it?

Because they are content with the status quo and lack creativity, but the Ming court does not lack creativity, and we will continue to make things that you can look at a glance.

To put it simply, the Ming Dynasty never sold this table or this chair, but creativity. ”

Cui Mingyuan listened a little intrigued, although some words were incomprehensible, but he still roughly understood the meaning.

I have to say, he was tempted.

Indeed, Li Chengqian is good at creating all kinds of things that he has never heard of, and in just half a year, this has been proven repeatedly.

As for the field, he is the last concert, and as for the final result, it is still up to the court to decide.

For him, it's just a matter of getting started.

After the two had an in-depth discussion about the scene, Cui Mingyuan got up and said goodbye.

As soon as he walked out of the restaurant, he shook his head helplessly.

The eagle will eventually soar for nine days!

And not long after Cui Mingyuan left, Niu Jinda was led in by Li Dalang.

Seeing Li Chengqian, Niu Jinda was also emotional.

"I've seen Your Highness." Niu Jinda bowed his hand.

Li Chengqian hurriedly stepped forward to help Niu Jinda and said, "Why should the general be polite. ”

With this title alone, you can see that this guy is inflated!

In the past, he didn't call it that when he first arrived in Taoyuan.

Of course, Niu Jinda didn't care, and arched his hand: "I don't know what His Highness hurriedly rushed to Hezhou with soldiers and horses before, what is the so-called matter?" ”

Although Li Chengqian had sent someone to inform Niu Jinda in advance, he did not tell the reason.

This means that it was Li Chengqian who led the troops, and if someone else was replaced, Niu Jinda could not think that it was an enemy attack.

But even so, Niu Jinda also sent soldiers and horses to follow secretly.

Li Chengqian also knew, but everyone tacitly didn't take it seriously.

"Little things." Li Chengqian said with a smile, "I signed a tripartite non-aggression pact with Murong Fuyun, the old fox......"

Briefly explained the situation to Niu Jinda.

After all, there are many things that need the cooperation of this person, and it will not work to hide it from him.

When Niu Jinda heard Li Chengqian say this, he was helpless in his heart.

Good guy, I'm still counting on some military exploits on Tugu, it's better for you to seal all the windows for me?

If Tuyuhun does not use troops against the Ming Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty must not use troops against Tuyuhun?

Who the is this restricting?

With a wry smile, Niu Jinda said, "Your Highness is ......"

Hey, he really can't go on with the rest of the words.

"General Niu, don't worry." Li Chengqian said, "There is this king who is holding back Tuyuhun in Chishuiyuan, and the border of the Tang Dynasty has been impregnable in recent years." It will never be like a few years ago, when Murong Fuyun's old man waved his troops and knocked on the gate at every turn! ”

Niu Jinda is speechless, am I afraid that he will knock on the level?

I'm afraid he won't knock!

If he doesn't knock, where will my military exploits come from?

In fact, if you really want to talk about it, Niu Jinda is not a person who covets military merits, he has experienced a great famine, a real famine, and has seen the tragic situation of starvation all over the ground.

This may seem a bit contradictory, but it's not incomprehensible.

The main reason for this is estimated to have been stimulated by Cheng Yanjin and others.

How many of the old brothers back then were not from this and that?

As long as he is still on top of the little county man, this makes him and the old brothers unhappy to drink.

Besides, people, one stage and one idea.

When Zhu Yuanzhang was a monk, he definitely never thought about being an emperor, that's what it meant.

"That old man has to thank His Highness for the tens of thousands of soldiers on the border and countless Li people......" Niu Jinda complimented Li Chengqian very aggrievedly.

Li Chengqian smiled and said: "The general is polite, this king still has a deal to discuss with the general today." ”

"Your Highness, please speak." Niu Jinda Road.

Li Chengqian said with a smile: "This king wants to purchase a batch of arrows from the general. ”

That's what he's for.

Now Sun Moon Mountain is too short of this thing.

When Niu Jinda heard this, he said in embarrassment: "Your Highness, this is a difficult old man, the ordnance is counted, and the ordnance of the military camp is traded out without authorization, even if it is an old man, he can't afford this responsibility." ”

This deal could not be done, and Niu Jinda immediately refused.

Li Chengqian said: "The general hasn't asked the king what he used to trade with the general." ”

Hearing Li Chengqian's words, Niu Jinda said curiously: "I don't know what His Highness wants to trade?" ”

As soon as Li Chengqian's hand was raised, Liu San took out a repeating crossbow and said: "This is a repeating crossbow developed by the Ming Dynasty royal court, with ten arrows in a row, although the range is not as good as that of bows and arrows, but the rate of fire is beyond the reach of bows and arrows." ”

As he spoke, he took the repeater in his hand and shot ten arrows at the pillar in the room.

This stunned Niu Jinda.

Datang actually has a repeater, but it is different from the repeater that Li Chengqian took out.

Anyway, Datang's repeater is a concurrent crossbow, that is to say, multiple crossbow arrows are fired at the same time, while Li Chengqian's is a real repeater, with ten arrows in a row, and you can choose to fire several crossbow arrows according to your own needs.

If you want to say which is stronger or weaker between the concurrent crossbow and the repeating crossbow, it's really hard to say.

There is no comparison with this.

"How does Your Highness want to trade?" Niu Jinda was tempted.

This trade can be done!

Sure enough, Li Chengqian can do every business he brings!
