Chapter 259: A Clever Deal

Li Tai took two steps back and forth, "Slow, think again, think again." ”

Looking at Li Tai's group of younger brothers, these are the guards of the Wei Palace, and it can be seen from the expressions of these guys that they will not follow Li Tai into the East Palace, everyone is going to eat.

Zhang Yang asked in a low voice: "His Royal Highness the King of Wei is planning to rush into the East Palace because of the prince's poems?" ”

Li Tai kicked the pebbles at his feet, "Otherwise? ”

"It's tolerable, it's unbearable! It's just too much. ”

A bleak cold wind blew, and Li Tai suddenly squatted on the ground to hide his face and cry bitterly, his strong appearance just now was gone, and now it was more like a collapse.

"His Royal Highness the King of Wei, are you still rushing to the East Palace?"

"The words were said by my father, and the matter was also requested by my father, so what can this king do if he rushes to the East Palace?" Li Tai sobbed, "Two thousand, this is how long will this king have to save money, brother-in-law!" What's going on? This king is so bitter. ”

As he spoke, the little fat man blew his nose with his sleeve, after all, he was just a teenager, and he cried at every turn.

Zhang Yang patted him on the back and comforted: "Since it was all done by your father, why don't you take someone to rush to the Taiji Palace?" ”

Li Tai wiped his tears, "What nonsense, this king still wants to live a few more years." ”

"So this is a compromise?"

"Of course not!" Li Tai gritted his teeth, "On weekdays, you have the best way, this king can be regarded as reading countless people, and my brother-in-law is a person with ideas, although he is usually a little lacking in morality." ”

"Heh, how am I lacking virtue, His Royal Highness King Wei don't talk nonsense."

"You don't lack virtue? What's going on with Li Yuanchang. ”

"Why do you have to do that, what does it have to do with me?"

Li Tai grabbed Zhang Yang's arm, "Now I can only rely on my brother-in-law, otherwise I will let the people in the house crash to death in front of your house!" ”

"It's not good."

"One a day." Li Tai gritted his teeth, his face turned blue.

In the final analysis, Li Shimin's son is more or less bear-like, and he somewhat lacks a positive influence in teaching children.

Feeling the strength of Li Tai's grip on his arm, Zhang Yang looked at the sky, "It seems to be raining, and the wind is cold." ”

The scene was quiet for a while, and the little fat man didn't speak, putting on a posture of wanting to pull people into the water.

It was all harmed by Li Shimin, this vicious heavenly khan, he didn't even let go of his son's family property, it was too hateful.

"His Royal Highness King Wei, can you let go first?"

"No, you'll run, and you have a share in the soap business, and with your temperament, you must have a way." Li Tai simply hugged his arm.

"There is a way, but our soap business is about to transform."

"Well, how to transform? What does transformation mean? ”

"His Royal Highness King Wei, can you let go first? I'm not running. ”

Li Tai hesitated for a while, then pursed his mouth and let go of his hand, with grievances in his eyes.

This little fat man is a villain, and most of the grievances he sees in his eyes are pretended, and he is coerced and takes out the posture of breaking the net.

On weekdays, he fights openly and secretly with the prince to get the appreciation of his father and mother, but he doesn't want to be weaker than the prince.

Zhang Yang whispered: "My next words, His Royal Highness King Wei will listen to it." ”

Li Tai nodded vigorously, "I'll listen, brother-in-law, you say." ”

"At the beginning, our soap was regarded as a luxury, since your father didn't want Chang'an City to become extravagant, then the price of soap should be lowered, to the point that ordinary people can afford it, such as thirty yuan a piece."

"Wait!" Li Tai hurriedly interrupted, he took two steps back and forth and thought, "It's still a loss if you calculate thirty wen a piece, at least fifty wen, there are so many people in the soap workshop to feed." ”

Zhang Yang simply pulled Li Tai to a corner.

The brother-in-law and brother-in-law squatted in a corner where no one was and discussed in a low voice, while listening to Li Tai nodding incessantly.

Half an hour later, Li Tai's eyes lit up again, "Hahaha! The brother-in-law is talented, and he will definitely be among the nine Qings in the future. ”

Zhang Yang arched his hand and said: "The award is over, it is all for our common interests." ”

"Yes, the common good."

As if in a desperate situation, Li Tai laughed and left the Suzaku Gate.

This scene was under the noses of the guards of the Vermilion Bird Gate, although I didn't hear what Zhang Yang and King Wei said, but the appearance of these two people squatting in the corner of the wall really looked like the attitude of the ordinary people in the market.

Before going home, I went to Dongshi and bought a few catties of millet and bitter herbs to go home.

Li Yue was packing up the paper that was drying today, and it was about to rain.

Zhang Yang also hurriedly helped the two aunts collect the paper.

When the rain fell, the subordinates of Li Tai's mansion also came to the door.

Zhang Yang stepped forward and asked.

The other party took out half a piece of jade pendant and bowed down and said, "King Wei said, from now on, he will be like this jade with the horse." ”

Looking at the half of the jade pendant, Zhang Yang was puzzled: "Is this going to cut off my robe?" ”

"The horse will be mistaken, the king of Wei means that this is a token, and life and death will be shared from now on."

With that, the man hurried away.

Zhang Yang took this half of the jade pendant and stood under the eaves and watched the rain fall from the eaves, "Daughter-in-law." ”

Li Tai was stepping on the spinning wheel and weaving clothes, "Hmm. ”

"King Wei said that he would live and die with me."

"What happened to Qingque, and she is going to ask her husband for help again?"

"Indeed, you saw through it."

Li Yue's laughter came from inside the house, "Qingque, this kid is like this." ”

"Actually, I don't want to live and die with him, the identity is too different, and I can't do anything to live and die together, it's better for him and the prince to live and die together."

"Green Sparrow, this kid...... Alas, the father and the queen mother also spoiled him too much. ”

"Perhaps."

Li Tai moved quickly, and it took him seven days to transform the entire soap workshop, but none of these things had anything to do with him.

Today is the day of the interview for the second half of the Red Mansion, and even though it is the busy season for farming, the aunts in the village have brought their jobs to their homes, helping to work overtime and printing all the books.

Li Yue sat at the entrance of the village and carefully checked, because each page was embossed according to a mold, and the old craftsmen who came from the palace did this, and they were all engraving in the village, and they were busy for three hours a day, and the work was easy, and they were also handy in dealing with the small printing business in the village.

Up to now, there are three sets of thousand-character molds in the village, which can be used as long as they are arranged and can be reused.

It is also much easier to engrave with clay than to carve wood.

Li Yue put down the scroll, "There is no problem, give each of the three old craftsmen ten yuan of money, it will be their reward these days." ”

"Whoa."

Aunt Yang received the message and went to do it.

Zhang Yang said to Niu Chuang: "It's better to sell it in Chang'an City according to the old price." ”

Niu Chuang nodded and agreed, "Let's arrange it." ”

Li Yue has made great progress in winning the hearts and minds of the people, and the families of the three old craftsmen have also moved into the village, and the craftsmen are the most trustworthy, and they will be tight-lipped about the technology of movable type printing.

If it leaks out, it will have a great impact on their reputation.

And Li Yue also took their family members over, comforting and rewarding them.

Tie up the technicians in the village, this is the real purpose of the daughter-in-law, plus give the pension.

Even if they change places, they can't find such good customers.

The daughter-in-law took the other party.

Shangguan Yi hurriedly came with a roster, "Zhang Shilang, it has been delayed for some time, this is the roster given by Chu Mo. ”

Zhang Yang looked at the roster and whispered, "What are you busy with these days?" ”

Shangguan Yi replied: "Brother Chu Mo encountered some trouble, so he went to Ning'an County to talk to the government there, and he helped teach Chu Mo's brothers in the next place, and he couldn't sit idly by. ”

"What's wrong?"

"There's a bully over there, Brother Chu Mo and the bully's gang did it, Brother Chu Mo and he went down and went around for a few days before sending that bully to prison."

"Eliminate violence and peace, hmm! Good thing. ”

Zhang Yang nodded pertinently, frowning and looking at the roster, "Chu Mo has fifteen captains in his hands?" ”

Shangguan Yi explained: "It's also strange that Mo hasn't read many books, he arranges his subordinates according to the official positions in the Weifu army, three of them are captains, in charge of fifteen captains, and under these fifteen captains, there are team leaders, team leaders, and then divided into three groups of what their own chiefs, there are more than 600 people recorded, and the rest of the idle people are not recorded, most of them can't touch the captain when they arrive at the team, only the captain can contact the captain." ”

"It's pretty thorough."

"The Chu Mo brothers didn't bother a lot because of this, and they gave it back to join the army in the next one."

"Well, I saw it on the roster."

Shangguan Yi looked at Cheng Chumo really well, and it also satisfied his heart when he thought of the general, Shangguan Yi knew how to deal with the government, and he could also make overall arrangements, which could make people feel a lot more at ease.

"Brother Shangguan, this kid is rude, but after working hard, you have to look at the village, and you have to help look at Cheng Chumo."

"Zhang Shilang doesn't have to say that, solving these troubles with others has also benefited him a lot, just like this time I also understand that the county officials in some places are not all literate, in addition to the officials left behind by the former Sui, there are also many official positions given according to military merits, everyone is a reasonable man, dealing with this kind of bully, the same enemy, and there is the Cheng family as a backer, even if there are people behind them, they dare not provoke easily."

"If Chu Mo really encounters any trouble, something that is not easy for you to do, you must go to King Wei."

"King Wei? Xia Guan knew that the concubine and Chu Mo had a very good relationship with the King of Wei, but ......"

"It doesn't matter, as long as it's the right thing, even if they have a backstage, we can move out of King Wei, there is an interest relationship between the three of us, and he will help."

"Try to be as measured as possible."

"I'm now a member of the East Palace, and I usually accompany the prince to study, and I also said a few words on the prince's side, you don't have to be too polite when you really encounter arrogant people, and besides, it's a good thing to eliminate violence and peace, that is, we have to keep a low profile on weekdays, and it is a matter of the government to be punished and arrested, and try not to be as low-key as possible and not to act in the government."

"Brother Chu Mo also has a lot of explanations on weekdays, so I understand."

After reading the roster, Zhang Yang handed him the roster, "Add an extra liaison between the lieutenant and the captain, and a separate liaison between the lieutenant and the lieutenant, and try to meet as little as possible between the upper and lower lines, the more hidden, the better." ”

"Zhang Shilang means that a well-planned and arranged ruffian gang will attract the attention of the DPRK and China."

"It's always a good idea to have more rules, just in case."

"I also heard that General Li Junxian is investigating some things recently, and it will be arranged."

"Thank you for your hard work."

"It's nothing, it's great to learn from each other." Shangguan Yi looked at the village and continued, "It's the farming season recently, so Xiaguan went to see how the village was doing. ”

"Do you have a daughter-in-law?"

was suddenly asked, Shangguan Yi was stunned, and after thinking about it, he replied, "There is a family affair arranged in my hometown, but it is not good to go here when the next person is here." ”

"I see, you go get busy."

"Whoa."

Li Yue listened carefully and whispered, "What do you do when you ask people about marriage?" ”

Zhang Yang grinned, "I'm thinking about Shangguanyi's granddaughter." ”

"He's not married? Where did the granddaughter come from. ”

"A Taoist priest once told me that if Shangguan Yi has a granddaughter, she must be a particularly resourceful woman."

Li Yue looked disdainful, "Do you believe this kind of thing?" ”

Zhang Yang smiled helplessly.

The second half of the Red Mansion was sent to Chang'an City and caused a sensation within half a day.

The palace bought a volume for the first time and sent it to Li Shimin.

"Ouyang Xun's words look really comfortable." Li Shimin nodded appreciatively.

"Your Majesty, King Wei's soap business is starting again."

Li Shimin turned a page and looked at it carefully and asked, "I have already said that no one will buy it." ”

The little eunuch whispered, "Your Majesty, the price of a piece of soap is only thirty wen now, and many ordinary people have gone to buy it." ”

"Thirty Wen? When the price was high before, there was always a piece of money, but now it only costs 30 yuan? ”

"The soap that has always been a piece of money is indeed still available, but King Wei has changed the way of selling it."

"Tell me about it." Li Shimin frowned.

"It is said that the original price of soap is really expensive, King Wei classified the soap, from A, B, C, D four categories from good to second, the price is also from expensive to cheap, saying that it can provide ten pieces of soap a month, if you buy soap for a long time, you can order a month and give away a piece of expensive soap with fragrance for nothing, someone ordered it on the spot for a year, get ten pieces of good soap, and then as long as you send B or C soap every month as agreed."

It is said that many people in Chang'an City can afford a soap for 30 yuan, and not only that, but also give away expensive soap with fragrance.

Thinking about the reason, Li Shimin snorted coldly: "From now on, soap has become something that everyone can buy, and he can continue to make profits from it, a good means, when will my son have such a strategy." ”

"It is said that a few days ago, the King of Wei and the concubine had another long talk in front of the Suzaku Gate."

The magnates in Chang'an City couldn't hold back after all, and Li Shimin knew in his heart that although he said that he was thrifty, some magnates were thrifty on the surface, but secretly they were still the same as before.

Li Tai earns the money of the powerful, and he can also satisfy the ordinary people of Chang'an City, and he can earn money himself, and the means are cleverly used.

It's just that Li Shimin doesn't bother to care about the affairs of the powerful, and he wishes that these powerful clans would pay more money.

Today, Li Tai is naturally in a very good mood, he is talking to a group of clan children of the same age about his trading philosophy, "Do you know what long-term trading is? ”

The children shook their heads.

"Do you know why this king gave away soap for free, and he can earn more than before?"

The children still shook their heads.

"This King ......"

In the middle of speaking, the children saw the adults coming and scattered in a hurry.

Everyone ran away, and Li Tai wanted to talk to people about his experience of ups and downs a few days ago, but they didn't want to listen, "Where to find a soulmate!" ”

Shaking his head and sighing, Li Tai put his hands on his back, pretending to be helpless as an adult.

If you have something to do at night, you will change two chapters during the day, forgive me, and it will be updated stably tomorrow
