God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

Changsun Wuji said angrily: "From now on, you don't want to leave Sikong Mansion for half a step, and reflect on your mistakes at home. Hmph, you have lost all face of my eldest grandson Wuji."

Chang Sun Chong dared not speak.

Changsun Wuji said: "Fortunately, we only lost tens of thousands of coins this time. From tomorrow onwards, all the newly recruited people from Beast King Mountain will be dismissed. You will gain wisdom by eating a pit. You should remember this sentence well, father." .”

Tens of thousands of pennies are nothing to the eldest grandson's family. In fact, eldest grandson Wuji cares more about his own reputation and doesn't want to be treated as a joke.

At this moment, the housekeeper Wang Fu hurried in from the outside.

"Master, something is wrong... Those workers at Beastmaster Mountain have rebelled, rebelled..."

what?

Changsun Wuji and Changsun Chong looked at each other and opened their mouths in surprise.

Soon, Changsun Wuji knew what was going on.

The workers at the Beastmaster Mountain Coal Mine were not actually rebelling, but rioting.

For the previous group of people, each of them had ten coins a day.

Later, in order to reduce the cost of briquettes, Changsun Chong lowered everyone’s wages to eight Wen, and then down to five Wen, and even to San Wen. Later, the newly recruited people were fed three meals a day, and they were paid for a penny. No.

In this way, Changsun Chong did make money, but those people, especially the previous group of craftsmen quit, so on this windy and snowy night, the people injured the guards, smashed the house, and asked the Changsun family to pay for it. a statement.

At the same time, there was also a riot in the coal mines of other big households in Chang'an City.

Changsun Wuji and Changsun Chong rushed to the Beast King Mountain with dozens of guards from Sikong Mansion, thinking that the matter could be settled, but the scene was in chaos, and the first wave of guards were wounded more than a dozen before they got off their horses.

Helpless, Changsun Wuji had no choice but to ask the Forbidden Army for help.

Afterwards, General Li Junxian of Youyu Linwei personally led a thousand imperial troops to control the situation in the Beast King Mountain Coal Mine.

……

Four watch.

The lights were still on in the courtyard of the principal of Banshan College.

Du He sat behind the table, which was filled with information from various places, some from Chang'an City, some from outside the city, and some from various big households.

If anyone was present, they would be speechless in surprise, because Du He is in Banshan College, but he has a very clear grasp of the whole matter, especially the situation of the Beast King Mountain Coal Mine. Du He knew about it earlier than Changsun Wuji , to know the truth earlier.

This is the real scholar who knows everything in the world without going out.

Zhang Jian stood aside, hesitant to speak.

Du He raised his head, looked at this guy, and said, "You want to tell this young master that such a big thing happened in Beast King Mountain, and you are responsible for it, right?"

"Yes, yes," Zhang Jian said excitedly, "Master, according to your arrangement, I have already arranged for people to go to the Beast King Mountain Coal Mine. Since a few days ago, those people have become restless. Hehe, I heard the news After that, I sent a few people over there to fan the wind and light the fire, but I didn't expect it to happen, hehe..."

Du He was speechless for a while.

Zhang Jian is getting darker and darker.

"Has anyone died?" he asked.

Zhang Jian shook his head: "No, brothers all know how to measure, it is determined that people were injured, those people are poor people, they dare not kill them."

Du He looked out the window and said, "Let's go through everything again."

……

boom.

Tai Chi Palace, Imperial Study Room.

Li Er's mood can be described as rage.

Before dawn, Changsun Wuji rushed into the palace with Zhang Su to plead guilty. The two came to the Tai Chi Hall, only to find out that Li Er hadn't slept all night.

It turned out that Li Junxian had no right to dispatch troops last night, so he had no choice but to wake up Li Er. After Li Er woke up, he could no longer fall asleep.

Changsun Wuji stood aside, and Changsun Chong prostrated himself on the ground.

Li Eryi patted the table, pointed at the two of them, and said bitterly: "Auxiliary machine, auxiliary machine, the good son you taught, he is young, he has not learned anything else, but he has learned how to bully the people, hmph, Thousands of people live in the Beast King Mountain. They only care about their fill every day, and sometimes they don’t even have enough to eat. Do you think those people are idiots? Fortunately, no one was killed, otherwise, how would you tell me to explain to the court, how to explain to the people of the world..."

Li Er looked at Chang Sun Chong again, and said angrily: "Chang Sun Chong, as the young minister of Dali Temple, you don't study hard with Wei Ting, but you think about making money all day long, are you worthy of my trust?"

Chang Sun Chong muttered: "Your Majesty, Du He can make money!"

Snapped.

Before Li Er could speak, Changsun Wuji turned around and slapped him across the face: "You bastard, although Du He is the Marquis of Huyi County, he has no official position in the court. Besides, it took Du He more than half a year to become the richest man in Chang'an. , what ability do you have to compare with him?"

creaking.

At this time, the door of the imperial study room opened.

Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Wang Gui, Li Jing, Gao Shilian and others hurried in. These people were all important ministers in the court and the most core members around Li Er.

This matter should not be publicized, so Li Er did not intend to discuss it in the early court.

After everyone arrived, Li Er asked: "My dear friends, I think you all know what happened. I called you so early because I wanted everyone to come up with a countermeasure to properly resolve this matter."

Yuchi Gong, who hadn't been bubbling in front of Li Er for a long time, became a high-profile person after Yuchi Baolin became a man from Lantian County.

He was the first to stand up and said: "Your Majesty, it is not difficult to resolve this matter. As the saying goes, there is an injustice and a debtor. Since this matter was caused by the Sikong Mansion, let the Sikong Mansion clean it up." Ass, first, give those people enough compensation to appease their emotions, and second, Beastmaster Mountain Coal Mine also learns from Lantian Coal Mine, the minimum wage for workers in Lantian Coal Mine is [-] Wen a day, and Beastmaster Mountain should do the same..."

Don't look at Yu Chigong as a big bastard, he never winked at harming the eldest grandson's family.

……

Chapter 559 Negotiations

Changsun Wuji was not a vegetarian either, he jumped when he heard this.

He pointed at Yu Chigong with a black face, and said: "You stinky old black, what do you know, the contract signed by Chong'er, a rebel, with those common people is for ten years, if everyone's daily salary is twenty yuan, The cost of the briquettes produced is more than five cents, but Du He's briquettes only cost one penny each, do you want my eldest grandson's family to pay for it?"

Don't look at the fact that you don't pay much in a short period of time, but after a long time, even the eldest grandson's family can't afford it.

The point is that thousands of people are just a pack of explosives, and you don't know when things will go wrong again.

Changsun Wuji resolutely refused.

He said earnestly: "Your Majesty, you must continue to be disturbed by it. If you don't solve this matter completely now, you may have endless troubles. Please make a decision."

Li Er nodded: "The auxiliary machine makes sense, dear friends, do you have any other good ideas?"
