Li Shimin

Cheng Zhijie stared at Cheng Chusi, "Right now, there should be many aristocratic families who are eyeing the two glass shops in the eastern and western cities. You stay outside and avoid contact with those bastards from the aristocratic families."

"Especially, if they want to ask about your wife, don't tell me a word!"

"Please rest assured, Aye, I will not reveal a single word about my master. As for the bastards of those aristocratic families, if you didn't let me provoke you too much, I would have broken their legs long ago!"

Cheng Chusi hurriedly replied, while showing disdain for the children of those aristocratic families.

Then, thinking of something, Cheng Chusi asked again: "Aye, did the ledger of the glass shop come out?"

"Ok?"

On the sofa, Cheng Zhijie stared.

Cheng Chusi hurriedly asked with a laugh. "Hey, Aye, my boy is just curious, how much did our family share?"

"Not much, that's [-] guan!" Cheng Zhijie said.

"Ten thousand..."

Cheng Chusi, who was about to say something, suddenly froze.

Immediately, he was shocked.

"Fifteen thousand?"

"Nizi, can this old man still lie to you about this matter?"

Cheng Zhijie stared again, and at the same time subconsciously turned his head and looked around, feeling his hands itching again.

"Hey, Aye, don't be upset, if there is nothing wrong, the boy will leave first!"

After finishing speaking, Cheng Chusi ran out in a hurry.

When he returned to his small courtyard, his face was still full of excitement.

"Fifteen thousand, these glass objects really make money!"

Said, Cheng Chusi sat on the small sofa in his room, frowned slightly, lost in thought.

He always felt like he was missing something.

Suddenly, seeing the two bags of money in his hand, his eyes were full of wry smiles.

"Aye, you are so dark!"

I received [-] guan, and I will give [-] guan to myself, the biggest hero, and I will do things for you myself!

The more he thought about it, the more depressed Cheng Chusi became.

As a result, the one hundred guan in his hand is no longer fragrant!

At the same time, Yuchi Baolin, Changsun Chong, Li Chongyi, Fang Yizhi, and Du Gou also obediently accepted the instructions of Yuchi Gong and Li Xiaogong at home.

At the center of the topic is the need to be vigilant with all your heart towards the children of those powerful and aristocratic families.

It's just that Li Chongyi, Changsun Chong, and Fang Yizhi were not as unlucky as Cheng Chusi, and Li Chongyi got the most one thousand guan.

As for Changsun Chong and others, there are as many as [-] guan and as few as [-] guan.

And Li Chengqian was also rewarded with a thousand strings by Li Shimin.

As for hearing that Li Yuanchang wanted to see Li Xuan, and even wanted to abduct Li Xuan out of Li's Village, Li Shimin looked disdainful, and at the same time, there was a flash of headache in his eyes.

Facing these young brothers, he was also very troubled, he could not reprimand him like other princes of the clan with the pampering father who wanted to make things difficult for him all day long.

Then, thinking of those aristocratic families, Li Shimin was upset again.

The next day.

After the morning court.

Li Shimin took Li Wei and the fifteen thousand coins to Lijiazhuang.

Along the way, without Li Wei's reporting, Li Shimin could guess from the sudden increase of traders and pedestrians on the road that these people were spies from various aristocratic families.

"I've met Master, I don't know how comfortable these days are, Master?"

Putting five large boxes of copper coins in the courtyard, Li Shimin walked into the house on his own.

"Li Xuan met the prince!"

Seeing Li Shimin, Li Xuan was not surprised, stood up and gave a slight salute.

Afterwards, he replied softly: "Everything is fine, but it's been a little noisy outside these few days, but Li Xuan would still like to thank the prince for his protection."

"It's my king who didn't entertain well enough to let those ordinary people disturb my master!" Li Shimin apologized.

Now, Li Shimin valued Li Xuan, the God of Wealth even more.

"Tomorrow, I will send some more people to drive those people farther away!"

"Forget it, Li Xuan is not such a domineering person, the prince doesn't need to expend so much effort!"

Li Xuan quickly waved his hand.

Afterwards, he glanced at the boxes in the courtyard and said, "My lord, are these the money for the glass shop?"

"Exactly!"

Speaking of this, Li Shimin couldn't help but beam with joy.

"Thank Master Hong Fu, in just a few days, the two glass shops made a total of 30 guan. The five wooden boxes in the courtyard are filled with the [-] guan that was distributed to the master!"

……

Chapter 97 Wang Shen met the prince

"Thank you, my lord!"

After listening, a trace of astonishment flashed in Li Xuan's eyes.

Unexpectedly, in just a few days, the two glass shops made so much money. It seems that he still underestimated the wealth of those aristocratic families in Chang'an City!

At the same time, I also understand why these days, there are people pretending to be merchants and peddlers, wandering around outside the village every day!

It also provoked those children in the village, standing at the entrance of the village every day, watching the excitement!

"It's the king who thanks Master!"

Li Shimin quickly said: "If the master didn't give me the glass to sell, I would still have to worry about some money now!"

What Li Shimin said was true.

In the past two years, the Datang treasury has been so barren!

In the treasury, apart from rat droppings, not even a rat can be seen!

Although the national treasury has improved a bit this year, it is still unable to make ends meet.

"Since the prince is so short of money, you can sell some glass objects to those Hu merchants!"

Hearing this, Li Xuan said slowly.

"Sell to Hu merchants?"

Li Shimin was startled.

"Exactly!"

Li Xuandao, "Hu merchants specialize in selling strange things in the Tang Dynasty and those barbarian countries, and get high money from them. Therefore, the prince can raise the price of those glass objects ten times again. I believe those Hu merchants will grab them want!"

What Li Xuan didn't expect was that Li Shimin nodded and said, "This king believes in this matter."

Afterwards, seeing Li Xuan's puzzled expression, Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief, and explained: "Although the artisans in the mansion have burned tens of thousands of glass objects in the past few days, these glass objects are now in Chang'an City. It is still a scarce item, and ten thousand gold is hard to find. Therefore, not to mention Hu merchants, even some aristocratic families will want it!"

"This……"

At this moment, Li Xuan's expression froze.

"In this way, the prince can also choose some glass objects and sell them to Hu merchants at ten times the price. As for who the Hu merchants sell to, it is up to them to decide."

"In addition, you can also put some white wine in glass bottles, and increase its price by a hundred times, or a thousand times. Then, the prince can send a caravan to sell it to Turks or Tuyuhun, Baekje, Goguryeo, Dashi, Tubo, etc. The country can also earn a lot of money!"

"A thousand times?"

Li Shimin and Li Chengqian on the side were all taken aback, a trace of doubt flashed in their eyes.

"Master, the price is so expensive, are those barbarians willing to buy it?"

"My lord, with such exquisite fairy wine, a bottle only costs a thousand or ten thousand guan, why are those nobles not willing to buy it?"

Li Xuan chuckled, looked at Li Shimin, and replied with an inexplicable expression.

"Fairy brew?"

Now, Li Shimin and Li Chengqian were shocked again.

After a while, Li Shimin's eyes lit up, and he looked at Li Xuan with great joy.

"Master is indeed worthy of being a hermit master!"

However, Cheng Chusi and the others on the side were still full of doubts.

"Hey, Chongyi, you said that such a bottle of wine is just packed in a glass bottle, how can it become a fairy wine?"

"Don't ask me, I don't know either!"

"I do not know either……"

Seeing the doubts of Cheng Chusi and others, Li Xuan explained: "You can think about it, you have never seen glass before, how would you feel when you suddenly saw this kind of glass bottle?"

"I will definitely feel that the glass bottle is the most exquisite and magical object in the world!"

Without even thinking about it, Cheng Chusi replied directly.

"What if there is some fine wine in the glass bottle?"

"It's still good wine!" Cheng Chusi replied.

"Then what if someone told you that these are fairy wine? Moreover, it was brought back from a distant empire, and there is only one bottle, what would you do?" Li Xuan asked.

"Thank you master, I understand!"

Hearing this, Cheng Chusi and Li Chongyi immediately understood.

"Master, I will definitely bring someone to snatch it over and have a good taste!"

"Brutal behavior!"

Li Xuan couldn't help glaring at Cheng Chusi who was full of excitement, and said, "But, although you have a lot of money, for some reason you can't beat the opponent, and you can't even snatch it?"

"Then I'll buy it at any cost!"

Now, Cheng Chusi really understood, and looked at Li Xuan with admiration.

"Master is really clever!"

"Ruzi can be taught!"

Seeing that Cheng Chusi finally understood, Li Xuan couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.

As for Li Shimin, the purpose of coming to Lijiazhuang was achieved, and then he sat on the sofa and sipped tea leisurely, and then watched Cheng Chusi and the others cook.

However, after eating, he took Li Wei directly and rushed back to Chang'an City.

It's just that Li Shimin didn't know that when he left Lijiazhuang, there was a team of people in a dense forest outside Lijiazhuang, closely watching their convoy.

"Are you sure you read it correctly, the one sitting inside is Your Majesty?"

A young man in fancy clothes asked the guard in front of him with a face full of surprise.

It was the king of Lu who hunted here, Li Yuanchang.

"Returning to Your Highness, the villain did not see His Majesty, but I do recognize the guards beside the carriage!"

The guard quickly replied.

"Guard? Who is it?"

"Li Wei!"

"Li Wei? The commander of the inner guard beside His Majesty?"

"Exactly!"

"In that case, the person in the car is really His Majesty. But, why did Your Majesty go to Lijiazhuang?"
