Li Xiang was really uncomfortable, but fortunately he still understood the importance of the matter.

"How much did we earn in the country last year?"

Li Xiang seized the time to divert the topic, if he didn't divert the topic, the eldest grandson Huanting seemed to have magical powers.

Others may not understand what this magic is, but Li Xiang himself understands that this is the royal sister.

"A total of 120 million yuan was received, all of which were cash, and as for items of equal value, it is not easy to calculate at the moment, and we will have to wait until the end of the year to calculate them, and the other expenditure is about 23 million yuan."

The eldest grandson Huanting didn't need to look at the account books at all, all the account books were in his own head, which was also a reason why Li Xiang was relieved to hand over the business empire to the eldest grandson Huanting.

"It looks like the income has dropped quite a bit."

Li Xiang didn't blame, meaning that of course he also knew why his income had declined, mainly because of some fresh gadgets, and after the novelty passed, you wouldn't be able to sell them at such a high price.

"According to your instructions, we have franchised many stores, and in addition to collecting a part of the management fee, the rest of the profits have been taken away by some small families in various places, so that we can better control them, but in terms of money, our income has been reduced by at least about 40 million dollars."

Of course, the eldest grandson Huanting understands what Li Xiang means, the main reason why the five surnames and seven hopes can reach the whole country is that they have many partners in various places, and now we have handed over some of the stores to them, so that they have made a lot of money, and these people also know who to rely on, which is also an important reason for the decline in the strength of the five surnames and seven hopes.

"Let them make this money in the past two years, and when they wait for the next year, you have to slowly start to compress the profits in their hands, but at the same time, you have to let them do without us, to put it bluntly, these people are moths on the people, if it weren't for the two years of seeking stability, I would definitely have started with them a long time ago."

Li Xiang has long been unaccustomed to these powerful landlords in various places, but because of the external war, the Tang Dynasty must be stable internally, and the influence of the five surnames and seven hopes is still there, so some things can't be done so much.

"Don't worry, I'm already making changes in this area, many people have tasted the sweetness of us, and they have begun to give up some of the traditional industries, and we have already taken over all the shares they have ceded."

Coming from modern society, Li Xiang certainly understands the benefits of state-owned assets, as long as the state-owned assets are in their own hands and monopolies are formed in some important industries, then the economic lifeline of the entire country is in your hands, no matter how changes in the court, as long as you still hold this part of the economic lifeline in your hands, then you will always have the final say.

Now this stage is when Li Xiang creates state-owned assets, and when he chooses an heir in the future, he will also hand over this part intact to them, although it cannot guarantee the eternal foundation of the Tang Dynasty, but it can be regarded as giving them one more trick to defeat the enemy, as for how these descendants will mix, it depends on their own heads.

"Let's talk while eating, now that the weather is starting to get colder, eat a mutton pot to warm up."

After Li Xiang's words were finished, the people below began to put the mutton pot on the table, as well as a series of seasonings such as sesame juice, if modern people saw it, it would have to ensure that the stomach and intestines were opened.

"Several famous doctors have said that my baby must be a son, you have to remember what you promised me back then."

I still can't get around it, this Li Xiang himself is unwilling to talk about such a thing, but at this moment, the eldest grandson Huanting asked Li Xiang's face, if Li Xiang doesn't say it, or if it is not so certain, then the eldest grandson Huanting will definitely have a lot of psychological pressure, and in the upcoming production, the eldest grandson Huanting will definitely bear this pressure, Li Xiang does not dare to bet.

"How can you say that your man is also the imperial grandson of the Tang Dynasty, ordinary old men are still foaming at the mouth, can I change it if I say it? Now I repeat to you once again, as long as it is my son, he will have the same opportunity in the future, and as long as he has talent, that position is his. ”

After Li Xiang said this, a smile appeared on the face of the eldest grandson Huanting, waiting for this sentence, although Li Xiang also said it before, but women have their own worries, when Li Xiang said this, the eldest grandson Huanting felt more at ease.

As for whether this child is a son Li Xiang, I really dare not say, if there is a B ultrasound in this era, of course you can watch it at any time, but the problem is no.

As for those old Chinese medicine practitioners, Li Xiang believes that some of them can be detected through the pulse, which is also the magic of Chinese medicine.

But they also rely on years of experience, and if they are mistaken, they may also be daughters.

After getting this promise, Changsun Huanting stopped talking about these things, and did not say anything about the canonization of the Tiance General's Mansion, because since the day Changsun Huanting followed Li Xiang, this woman knew that it was impossible for her to come to the fore, and she would even become a shame for the eldest grandson's family, so these things had nothing to do with Changsun Huanting.

But the eldest grandson Huanting is a smart person, and now he is in control of Li Xiang's business system, if he really has a son in the future, then this business system is likely to be his son's, even if he can't become the person on the throne, just by virtue of the business system in his hand, he is already invincible.

In the following days, Li Xiang lived more comfortably, there were no all kinds of deception, Li Xiang also spent a rare and leisurely day with his eldest grandson Huanting, and when he got up the next morning, Li Xiang was not even willing to leave.

But there are some things Li Xiang still has to do, today he said that he would invite Niu Jinda and Su Dingfang to a banquet, although these are the two people he is most familiar with, but these two people will be the left and right generals of the Tiance General's Mansion in the future, and the things that should be said must also be said.

The division of labor between the two has also been decided, Niu Jinda must be stationed in the capital in the future, and Su Dingfang may not be able to follow Li Xiang to fight around, the two of them have a lot of credit, and the two of you will contain each other in the future, assist each other, and honestly watch this prosperous Chang'an for Li Xiang!
