The Road to the Imperial Examinations of Farmers in Ancient Times

"Li Liuyuan...''

"here!"

Hearing someone calling him, Li Wen looked up and saw someone waving at him.

"Come up, brother treats you to dinner." A person who was protruding half of his body from the window was waving at him and shouted from above.The corner of the mouth of the person protruding from the window was a little high, so that the smile looked a little silly. Li Wen recognized the person upstairs at a glance. Was it Wang Hao or who?

There were two more heads protruding from the side, Li Wen couldn't ignore it even if he wanted to, so let's go up!

"Let's go up." Li Wen said to Shen Zijing, since someone invites you to dinner, it's okay to have a meal.

Shen Zijing naturally had no objection, followed behind Li Wen, the two of them entered the restaurant together, and someone led them to the upstairs wing.Young General Wang is already waiting here, and with him are his two good brothers, both of whom are generals from the capital.

During this period of time, Shen Zijing ran around with Li Wen, and met many people, this young general Wang was one of them, but he didn't know the two next to him.

"Haha, I thought I was wrong just now, but I didn't expect it was really you... Today we are really destined." Seeing Li Wen coming up, Wang Hao laughed loudly, stretched out his hand to pat Li Wen's shoulder, and said , "Every time I want to buy you a drink, I can't find you. Let me catch you today. You have to have two drinks with us today!"

After entering the wing room, he sat down on the chair. Seeing that Wang Hao was going to pour him wine, Li Wendui blocked the glass with his hand and said, "Today is really not good, I have to go to work later."

Li Wen was very clear about his drinking capacity, basically pouring one glass at a time. If he had to drink, he couldn't deal with the afternoon's affairs at all.There are still so many things to be busy today, it is really not the time to drink, "Let's have a meal today, and I will replace wine with tea?"

"I owe this wine, and I will drink it with you some other day. There is still a batch of wine in the cellar of my house that has not been opened yet. Let's find a time another day. I will invite you all to have a drink, and the wine and meat will be full." How about it?" He threw out a big bait, and he wasn't afraid that this kid wouldn't take the bait.

"Really?" When Wang Hao heard that there was good wine and good meat, how could he be full with his drinking capacity?

Hearing that Li Liuyuan made good wine, he hadn't tasted it yet, and just hearing it made him want to drool.

Li Wen asked with a face, do you think I am telling a lie? "Of course it's true, so today's wine?..." Can we owe it and drink it another day?If you drink it today, it will be gone next time.

"Okay, let's drink it another day!" It doesn't have to be today, right?What's so good about the wine in this building? He's tired of drinking it. Wang Hao said that you can say whatever you want, and he listens to your expression anyway. He didn't persuade Li Wen to drink with them, but let someone pour the heat Tea, and a few good dishes.

The two next to him heard that Li Liuyuan had good wine, and they were all addicted to alcohol, so they clamored that the listeners had a share. Li Wen responded with a smile and said, "OK, okay, when the time comes, everyone I have a share, I will send someone to inform you all〇,'

"Okay, we will all be there by then."

At the same time, Li Wen was thinking that this one is all wine jars, should he invest in building a winery?Otherwise, this large group of people will definitely not be enough to drink.

"And this time, I still need to thank you for your help. I haven't had time to say thank you to you." Today, the entire capital has sent out a lot of people to help, the team patrolling the streets outside, and guides and Commander wait for these people.The entire capital is so big, and there is a need for manpower everywhere. Their commercial department alone certainly cannot handle such a big thing, so they must rely on the help of external forces to get this thing going.Duck rush

Li Wen picked up the tea, replaced the wine with tea, and offered a cup to Wang Hao.

There were quite a few people in the imperial court who had tripped him up and were still waiting to see what he had to do. This time, it was thanks to Wang Hao's help.But to be honest, the network of relationships in the capital is still the largest of the Wang family. The Zhao family has been at the border for many years, and the main manpower is there. General Wang has been in charge of affairs inside and outside the imperial city for many years. Wang Hao is the direct son of General Wang, and currently he is still serving in the Ministry of War. With Wang Hao coming forward, a word from him is more useful than anything else.

Because of this, the man in the family was jealous a lot, and he even coaxed him for a long time before making him happy

"Why don't you thank me? We are serving the imperial court and serving the emperor. It is our duty to maintain the safety of the imperial city. There is no need to say thank you." Wang Hao put a hand on Li Liuyuan's shoulder , Hehe smiled and said, "...I agreed to buy me a drink, just don't renege on my debt."

Li Wen smiled and said no, waiting for the dishes to come, while talking about business with Wang Hao, the chopsticks in his hand did not stop.

After they had eaten, Li Wen proposed to leave, there were still many things to deal with outside.

Seeing that Li Wen was about to leave, Wang Hao proposed to go with him, and followed him all the way. It was the first time he rushed up to do something, and Li Wen couldn't hold back.

"..." Is it too late to drive people away now?

But along the way, having this strong and physically strong fool following them along the way helped them a lot.

On the other hand, Shen Zijing and Wang Hao got acquainted quickly on the way, and the two began to call each other brothers after they arrived.

On this point of communication, Li Wen had to admire Shen Zijing, so this is why he brought people to the capital and then to their commercial department. It would be best to let him handle it.

It's just that the commercial department is still in its infancy, and he has to do everything by himself, but after all the people below are familiar with it, he doesn't need to run around so hard anymore, and he can also hand it over to the people below. just fine.However, today is the first day, so he still has to come and have a look in person before he can rest assured that he can find out and deal with any problems in time.

"Is it true that no one came to collect money today?"

"No way!"

"Wouldn't it be better if no one came to collect the money? Why do you all want those people to collect the money?"

"of course not!"

At the end of the day, the hawkers who set up stalls on the street to do business found that today, only in the morning when they arrived there would someone come to collect the money, after that no one would come to collect any miscellaneous likin and protection fees up.

In the past, when they set up a stall in the city, they had to give money first when entering the city. These people had to come three or four times a day. It was a trivial matter not to overthrow their stall. Before leaving, some people were forced to dare not set up stalls like this.

So in the past, the little money they earned from doing business for a day was not enough for these people.Just being forced by life, they have no choice but to endure and continue to set up stalls to do business. When they are lucky, they can still make some money.

But today is different, only someone came to collect the money and gave them a sign.Someone came back later, as long as they showed the sign to the bad guy, saying that it was the money that had been given, they were only warned a few words not to let the stall go out, and they were fine, and no one reached out to ask them for money, so after a day How many coppers they earn are in their own pockets!

This is... really great!

It's better to be like this in the future, these officials will not come to ask them to collect such miscellaneous money.At this time, everyone began to talk about the new regulations issued by the imperial court, saying that in the future, they will be charged as they are today, and there is no need to pay any more money when entering the city, only a few street vendors will be charged.

These small traders didn't know until today, oh, so the new regulations are like this!Compared to before, it is much better.

At this time, the businessmen are also talking about the fact that they met Mr. Li Liuyuan today. Only a few lucky ones met this Mr. Li. Most of them have never seen this legendary Mr. Li Liuyuan. grown ups.

A businessman who had never seen him asked curiously, "Tell us quickly, this Li asked what Mr. Li looks like. How old is the son at home?

However, these merchants dared not ignore Mr. Li because of his age.

I have to say that before this, Li Wen's several major events were too impressive, so even if they met him in person, it was a bit difficult for these businessmen to connect him with the legendary Li Liuyuan, but they dared not There is any meaning of looking down on him, a hairless kid.

"This Li Liuyuan is different from the officials we met before, and he speaks in a good manner. A group of us gathered around him to ask questions, and he always talked to us with a smile on his face..." Those who they had met before Which one of the officials would laugh at them?Unless it is when they give a lot of money, maybe the other party will give them a smiling face.

However, few of the officials who smiled at them in the past had any good things to do. It still makes people feel creepy to think about it now, but this Li Liuyuan, Mr. Li, is different.Someone patted Master Li's horse and said, "Master Li's smile makes people feel like a spring breeze... If only I had a daughter in my family, I can't wait to marry my daughter to Master Li."

"I heard that Master Li is not married yet!"

"Just live your dream. Master Li will not marry your daughter if he is not yet married!" With the way you look like, what will happen to the daughter you give birth to?Others couldn't bear to beat the man who said he was going to marry a daughter to Mr. Li, besides, this man only had a few sons in his family and didn't have a daughter.

But if there is a daughter in the family, the daughter is still good-looking, has not yet left the court, and has not yet said that she is married, then it is different.

... What if Mr. Li really likes the girl in their family?This is going to marry my daughter to Mr. Li, and he will be Mr. Li's father-in-law in the future. Mr. Li will give some favors to Mr. Li and reveal some news to Mr. Li, right?It doesn't matter if the daughter can't be a regular wife after marrying, she can also be a concubine!Some people began to play all kinds of small things in their hearts.

The businessman at the head of this group of people took a glance and saw some people's thoughts, "Put away your little thoughts, I don't know how many people in this capital want to tell their daughters to Mr. Li, Master Li didn't even want it.

We are talking about business now, don't spoil our big business because of that little carelessness. "

Ask the businessman who met Li Liuyuan, "Go on and tell me what you said when you met Mr. Li."

The businessman continued to talk about his encounter with Li Liuyuan.

But when it came to the conversation, these businessmen found that this Li Liuyuan might not be so easy to fool, "So we have to be more cautious when dealing with this Master Li in the future."

There are also some policy-related issues, these businessmen sat together to discuss.

"Master Li said let us pay attention to the newspapers and news in the capital, saying that there will be good news."

"Oh, what's the good news?"

"This...Master Li is not willing to disclose."

"I don't know if anyone knows this Master Li. Let's hook up with this Master Li and invite Master Li to come out for a cup of tea and a meal." It's also a good way to find out what this Master Li has to say.

After just asking, no one knew this Master Li, so the matter of inviting Master Li to dinner had to be put aside for the time being.Someone remembered what Master Li said at the time, "Master Li said, there will be opportunities in the future."

Will have the opportunity next time?Everyone is wondering whether this sentence still has the same meaning.

But soon, these businessmen will know.
