Chapter Twenty-Three: Listen to the Music
On the way back, Yang Dong wanted to speak and stopped, wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask, Li Huai was afraid that she would be suffocated, so he took the initiative to ask her, "Do you have any questions?" ”
"I ...... The minister is indeed a little confused, and dares to ask the prince, doesn't His Majesty know about the matter in Guanzhong? ”
Yang Dong also knew that Li Huai had a cheerful personality, so he dared to ask, could it be that Emperor Shangao was far from real?
按照常人的理解,皇族就是至高无上的存在,然而,这一路走来,好像谁都敢欺负皇室一把。
There are even people who try to on the head of the royal family.
It's incredible, isn't it?
Li Huai smiled, in fact, this is not difficult to explain, "Have you ever seen a breeder who will slaughter chickens and ducks when they first start eating." ”
At the very least, you have to fatten up a little and lay enough eggs before you can slaughter and eat meat.
Moreover, the West Wind Chamber of Commerce is indeed legal and compliant, and has created very considerable economic benefits. It's like an old hen that lays golden eggs.
It has enriched Guanzhong, enriched the country, and even enriched the local people. It was only necessary to sacrifice some poor merchant families.
Isn't that a good deal?
For this.
What is the royal family wronged?
Then again, Cha Li put his hand into Chang'an City and seriously threatened Li Jinglong's fiefdom, which was indeed a little too much.
Li Huai couldn't figure out why they did this, this was obviously a way to die. Unless...... They also felt that they were a little too fat.
was afraid that the imperial court would slaughter them with a sword, so he sacrificed a chali to continue to maintain stability in Guanzhong.
In short, no matter what, Charlie is just a cannon fodder.
Li Huai had a hunch that he would still deal with the people behind the scenes of the 'West Wind Chamber of Commerce' in the future, and when the time came, he would find an opportunity to peek into their details.
When Yang Dong heard these words, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, sure enough, when a person reaches a certain status, he can't be called a person.
Family affection, honor and disgrace must be put aside.
She couldn't help but tilt her head and glance at Li Huai, I don't know if the prince will become this kind of lonely person in the future!
……
李怀把军队驻扎在城外,仅仅只带杨冬和一些随从义骑回长安,先去公主府。
When Li Jinglong saw him coming back, he said with a joking smile: "The majesty of our prince is unknown to everyone in Chang'an." ”
Li Huai only washed Chang'an in blood last night, and he didn't say hello this morning, so he took someone to negotiate with Chali.
On this day, she has never let go of her hanging heart.
No wonder she's angry.
Li Huai waved back left and right, sat down beside Li Jinglong, and took her hand, "Huai'er just went to warn them, no one wants to fight Chang'an City's attention, Huai'er didn't fight with them." ”
Li Jinglong gently snuggled on his shoulder, and said with a lot of feeling: "Huai'er has grown up after all, and she can help her aunt get ahead and rely on her aunt." ”
Li Huai stretched out his hand and gently hugged her, there was only an aunt in the world who could treat him as a child all the time.
Li Jinglong pondered for a long time and said: "Do whatever you want, my aunt won't take care of you in the future, come out of a way, don't let people look down on you." ”
After these days of observation, Li Jinglong was very pleased to find that he was finally no longer the weak imperial grandson.
When he was still in the capital, his imperial grandfather glared at him, which could scare him into tears. The prince was too harsh on him.
Li Huai didn't have anyone around him to speak, so he locked himself in the library and read books every day.
Li Jinglong learned that he was going west to go to the country, and he really sweated for him, and he didn't know if this child could bear the burden.
What if he can't hold on.
Now, she found that these worries were superfluous, this was not a bullied master, but some of his behaviors, which were unbelievable and incomprehensible.
I just don't know, what happened to this child, how could there be such a big change, it was because the eldest brother of the prince died?
Li Jinglong thought of this, and couldn't help but feel distressed, Li Huai had no mother since he was a child, and he suddenly lost his father.
Grandpa doesn't love, and the world slanders.
This child's life is too hard!
Li Huai felt a little warm in his chest, and when he looked down, Li Jinglong had two lines of tears on his face, wetting his chest.
"Auntie, why are you crying, who bullied you, tell Huai'er, Huai'er will go and cut them."
Li Jinglong laughed, raised his hand and pinched his earlobe, "You stupid boy, you really don't understand women's hearts at all." ”
Li Huai was stunned, this time he would cry, and he would laugh, whether his aunt was happy or unhappy, and what did she mean by what she said?
I don't understand!
The aunt and nephew gossiped for a while.
Li Jinglong drove him away and asked him to do business. As soon as Li Huaigang came out, he met Hua Qingyue.
"My aunt said I don't understand a woman's heart?"
Li Huai stopped Hua Qingyue.
"Your Highness...... Is there something wrong with you? Hua Qingyue looked at him in confusion.
"I know what Sister Hua is thinking." Li Huai said with a wicked smile.
Hua Qingyue was stunned, her face flushed, "I don't understand what His Highness means." ”
"Sister Hua is thinking...... Chicken thighs tonight? Li Huai guessed.
"Huh?!"
Hua Qingyue really couldn't catch this stalk.
"You haven't wiped the saliva off the corners of your mouth, this king must be right." Li Huai said confidently.
"Ah, right."
Hua Qingyue wiped the corners of her mouth and was speechless,
"This king is really too smart!"
Li Huai left triumphantly.
Hua Qingyue went to Li Jinglong's courtyard and told Li Jinglong about it, and the latter really laughed.
Li Jinglong smiled, his face suddenly became solemn, and he muttered, "Huai'er should indeed grow up." ”
Then, she looked up at Hua Qingyue.
Hua Qingyue's heart trembled violently, and she knelt down on one knee.
"Yes!"
At night.
Li Huai came to the Forgotten Immortal Residence again, hooked the column to listen to the music, arranged flowers and made jade, the happiness of the ancients was really happy.
But it's just too easy to destroy the human will.
Half a meeting.
"Lord Wang, everyone is here." Lou Xiaowan whispered in his ear.
"Hmm."
Li Huai nodded lightly, and went upstairs, it was still the same room last night, and the five shopkeepers were there.
"The grass people meet the prince, congratulations to the prince!"
Li Huai looked at the five people kneeling on the ground, "Have you all received the news?" ”
"Everyone in Chang'an knows about it, and they are all grateful to the prince from the bottom of their hearts, and Chang'an City is clear, and there are people who have set up an immortal position for the prince, and worship them sincerely every day."
It's too pompous.
Li Huai didn't come to listen to their flattery, his aunt's tone, he was already out, and it was time to do his own thing.
"This king wants to talk to you about a business, the business of Liangzhou, do you dare to do it?"
Although they had been prepared in their hearts, they were still a little surprised to hear Li Huai say it so bluntly.
"I am willing to serve the prince!" They said in unison, it may be a little difficult, but they believe that the prince will overcome these difficulties.
Li Huai waved his hand, "You all get up and find a place to sit by yourself." ”
The five sat cross-legged on the ground.
Li Huai continued: "This king doesn't need your service, and you are not this king's people, we are just a cooperative relationship. ”
"Your grain, ore, cloth, timber, salt. As long as you transport it to Liangzhou, this king will settle it for you immediately according to the market price, and reimburse you for the travel expenses. ”
When the five of them heard this, they were all very surprised, and there was such a good thing, not only settled on the spot, but even the travel expenses were reimbursed.
However, they also have questions.
“王爷,布匹,木材,粮食还行,矿石和盐,没有朝廷许可,恐不能流通。”
Li Huai smiled indifferently, "This king is the imperial court, you just have to make a report, my aunt will give you a note, and I will let you pass the checkpoint, what won't work." ”
The five were overjoyed.
"Thank you, Lord Wang!"
Li Huai raised his hand, so that they should not be too happy, he still had something to say.
"You sent the goods to Liangzhou, you shouldn't want to come back empty, if it's Liangzhou's goods, how do you plan to sell them in Guanzhong?"
Ore, grain, cloth, salt and timber are all scarce in Liangzhou and must be imported.
But this can only get in and out, and the financial terror in Liangzhou will soon be unbearable, and he will have to find a way to create revenue.
"Dare to ask the prince, what kind of goods is it?" They asked, and only if they knew what it was, they knew how to sell it.
"There's everything, and there's a lot you haven't seen before, not even in the world. Of course, they are all legal and compliant goods. ”
Although Li Huai is painting a big cake for them, it is not a lie, what he says will definitely become a reality.
The five of them pondered for a while, and then blurted out, "Since it is a department store, it is best to form a ...... Chamber of Commerce ......"
This...... As soon as the prince defeated the West Wind Chamber of Commerce, they suggested the formation of a Chamber of Commerce, which ...... All right?
Their hearts beat drums.
Li Huai smiled, he was guiding them to say this, stood up and said bluntly: "You have to believe in this king, don't be afraid that this king will treat you badly, from now on, you are the five elders of the 'Qinglong Chamber of Commerce'." ”
Blue Dragon Chamber of Commerce?
Dragon!
Thump!
The five of them knelt down in unison, "We are willing to serve the prince!" ”
With a prince and a princess on his back, if you don't seize such a good opportunity, when the time comes, it will turn into dry bones and bury it in the loess, and I am afraid that you will regret sitting up and slapping yourself.
their attitude.
The king is very satisfied!
