Datang Happy Landlord

Chapter 454;

Chapter 450;

The officials of Cangbu Division and Lu Jishan's servants had eaten breakfast, and Li Yu's servants quickly packed everything up and put them in the carriage to take them away.

After all, the group of people who had eaten were different, their spirits immediately rejuvenated, and Li Yu directed the dozens of big men he brought from his mansion to follow the scene to help.

A place was simply cleaned up, with the back against the shadow wall in the courtyard, used as the host platform, and four tables were arranged side by side as desks for registration and bookkeeping, and a gong was specially placed on the table.

Li Yu looked at the tables and chairs in the arena, and immediately readjusted;

"Nineteen led people to take away all the tables in the middle. There are at least a few hundred people who came today. Half of the people will not be able to sit in this way. Put all the tables in the last few rows. When the time comes, there will be no place for people to sit. , you can still sit on the table, it’s no problem to sit two or three people at a table.”

"It's the head of the house, here you come, brothers, come over and help, move over quickly."

"It's dawn now, Liang Daudao, you take a dozen people to the workshop, go to the two restaurants we passed by when we came, and borrow some chairs, remember not to use the table, tell them the shopkeeper, just say we If you want to talk about the sale of spirits today, they will lend you, and each family will give them the usual rent."

"only!"

Several officials happened to pass by with a pile of horses, and Li Yu stopped him immediately;

"Wait, where is this going?"

"Qi County Uncle, my family members said that one of the upper rooms has been cleared out and cleaned up for the Supreme Being to sit in. These broken horses don't look good there, so let's find a warehouse and throw them in."

"Don't throw it away, don't throw it away, if there are too many people and there is no place to sit, these can fit people, put them in that open space, right, that's the one at the door of the west wing room, it can seat dozens of people , you don’t know that when you’re watching juggling, sitting on any stone is more comfortable than standing on it.”

The leading official frowned and said;

"The magistrate...isn't that good? The people who came here today are all high-flying ostentatious people, so it's not appropriate to sit on this tattered horse, magistrate?"

"Why is it wrong? It's too appropriate. If you like to sit or not, just wait and see and sit crowded together. No one is used to them.

I came here for big things, and doing big business to earn a stable industry for hundreds of thousands of years for future generations, isn't it worth them to suffer a little bit and suffer a little tiredness?

If you think the conditions here are poor, you don’t have to come here. There are many pavilions in Pingkangfang. You can find a house with warm and fragrant nephrite, and you can serve people comfortably. If you feel uncomfortable, you can go to Pingkangfang to have fun. , I will never stop it!
Doing business is a matter of your choice. If you want to make money, you have to be able to endure hardships, so put them there. If you can find them, find some tattered horses and tie them out, and put some in the corridor of the east wing. "

"Okay, according to the county uncle's arrangement, let's find a few people to wipe the dust carefully, it's too dirty."

"Reporting to County Uncle, I saw that there was another storeroom where there seemed to be a bunch of broken horses piled up in the corner."

"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and get some water and wipe it again. Although the conditions are poor, at least it must be clean."

"Hey good."

Li Yu was also busy up and down, just as he calmed down, he heard voices coming into the yard;
"Isn't this brother Cui from the big house, it's really early, my little brother is so polite."

"Okay, okay, a certain family has returned the courtesy, isn't Brother Zheng here very early, it's all the same, brother Zheng please first."

"Please."

When Li Yu heard that those big households were coming, he dragged Xiao Tong and Liu Qi away, and hid all the way in the upper room that had just been packed for His Majesty the Emperor.
The three of them were taken aback as soon as they entered, four or five tables were neatly arranged inside, and the Ninth Five-Year Lord led a group of important officials all in casual clothes, talking in a low voice inside.

Liu Qi quickly closed the door, and the three of them came forward to worship, and Li Shimin spoke in time as soon as the three of them bent down;
"No, no, no courtesy, today's special period is not the time to pay attention to this."

The three agreed in a low voice;
"According to the order."

Li Yu leaned over and smiled and cared;

"Your Majesty, have you eaten? If it takes half an hour and you can still follow the cook in my mansion to bring those delicious food, no one will say anything when you come, so I can pick you up!"

"Okay, okay, put away your sycophants, I have been here for a long time with all the aiqing, I don't want to disturb too many people, so I didn't want to make a show, and I came in from the wing through the back door.

Who chose this place? It’s too dilapidated. There are so many courtyards in the Ministry of Housing. If you choose this place, the person who chooses it will look like a nonsense and mess around. "

"Your Majesty, it is the place chosen by the minister. I am afraid that there will be a lot of people in the imperial city, and I will have to notify the guards of the city to let them go. I will wait for a lot of trouble. It is not as good as here. Come and go as you want.”

"As soon as I guessed it must be your bad idea, you have never made a serious plan. As long as your thinking arranges things, it has never been normal. I am too lazy to talk to you. By the way, Fang Aiqing, Where did you just say that?"

Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, eldest grandson Wuji, Li Jing, Li Ji, and several other important civil and military officials were all sitting at the emperor's table, and Fang Xuanling answered in a low voice when asked;

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the minister just said that today's money can't be spent on building righteous warehouses and managing rivers in the south of the Yangtze River.

The north has already begun to move around. The chiefs of the Tuyuhun tribes frequently contact the Turkic thieves. We have to be careful. This year's drought has stopped. After autumn, some people at the border may not be able to bear it. Please learn from your majesty. "

Before Li Shimin could speak, Du Ruhui immediately cupped his hands;
"Reporting to Your Majesty, what the house servant said is absolutely true, this time I really dare not mess around again, at least I have to replace all the weapons and armors of the border guards, this is a major event among major events!"

Li Jing heard the words of Du Ruhui, No.1 in the military, and immediately expressed his support;
"Your Majesty is wise, what the two servants said is urgent, please make a clear decision."

Li Ji also nodded fiercely;

"My minister seconded that the equipment of Bian Guan Erlang must be replaced as soon as possible. The military is a major event for the country, and the sharp weapon is also the weapon. The soldier's front refers to fighting against foreign enemies to defend the country. If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your weapon. The sooner you do this, the better! "

Li Shimin also knew that the matter was imminent this time, he tapped his fingers on the table and became ruthless;
"Don't worry, dear friends, this time we must be close to the sons and daughters of the border. The money left over from the construction of the righteous warehouse will not care about the rivers in the south of the Yangtze River. The most important thing is to replace the armor and weapons of the border soldiers."

Listening to His Majesty's words, everyone couldn't laugh or cry, they couldn't help but worry about the warehouses in every county in the world, alas..."

Seeing the helpless generals and Du Ruhui's hard-pressed appearance, Li Yu couldn't bear it anymore;

"Uncle Changsun, my nephew has something to ask. I don't know how much money is needed to build the warehouse. How can His Majesty be so sad? I, a courtier, feel very distressed."

Of course Changsun Wuji knew clearly that he was in charge of the world's money and food, and answered without even thinking about it;

"It will take at least four to five million guan before it can be completed smoothly. However, after the righteous warehouse is built, food needs to be stored, so it will cost a lot of money, and at least a million guan of money and silk will be poured into it to store a certain amount of food. grain to meet the coming disaster.”

When a group of generals heard about this huge amount, they frowned and became even more embarrassed. God knows how much money they can get in today, and this righteous storehouse has to take out such a large amount. Alas...

Du Ruhui was also very melancholy, he couldn't bear it anymore;
"Your Majesty, we didn't take anything out. We just nodded and appointed some laws to protect wine merchants' shops. How much money can we sell, and this warehouse will take away more than 150 million coins. This... This is simply a bottomless pit... Ugh……"

Li Shimin is more angry than anyone else, but there is nothing he can do about it. There is nothing he can do to save money. How can people not be annoyed? Li Shimin even pressed his temper to comfort the minister;

"Ai Qing, don't worry, don't worry, Wuji and I listened to the household department's discussion yesterday, and estimated that at least 500 yuan will be collected today. Even if the righteous storehouse spends some, there should be some leftover, right?

If it really doesn't work, the brothers want to get back the capital, or should the old brothers take a step back?How about taking half of it back this time? "

Li Jing was the first to express his opinion;
"According to the order."

"My minister agrees."

"The minister waits for a second opinion."

A group of ministers followed Li Shimin from the pitiful place, and they were also a group of loyal dead soldiers. They immediately expressed their support for the court and His Majesty on the spot.

Li Shimin smiled from ear to ear, and stretched out his hands;

"Okay, okay, I know that you old brothers are all affectionate and righteous, and will never be indifferent to the suffering of the court, okay, okay!"

Li Yu just said casually with an itchy mouth, and now it seems that he has given in. His Majesty the Emperor stared at him while talking, obviously wanting to ask himself to give up half of the two shares of money.

A group of uncles also came to look at him, Xiao Tong next to him pulled Li Yu's sleeves deliberately, and Liu Qi also pulled Li Yu's lapel behind him.

Li Yu has been thinking about his plan to make a fortune, to become a rich and powerful landlord, and to work hard for a few months, how can he let it go?
Li Yu hurriedly said;

"Isn't there a lot of more than 100 million guns in Yicang? Uncle grandson, don't worry, my nephew dare not ask uncle Du's family for advice. Don't talk about other things in the sixteen guards, just talk about how much it takes for those sons in the gate to replace the upper-class weapons and armors." With money and silk, my nephew can also calculate whether the approximate income today is enough or not?"

As soon as Li Yu finished speaking, Li Shimin couldn't help but slapped the table again, and remembered that the occasion of this meeting was not suitable, so he held back his hand in the air;

"What nonsense are you talking about, how did your mother teach you a lesson yesterday, and you ignored it again?

Uncles like you are so impatient, you still dare to speak boldly, what is called more than 100 million guan is not much, do you know the saying of Chai Migui..."

Du Ruhui saw that His Majesty was going to get angry again, but he was trying to endure it, so he hurried to persuade him;
"Your Majesty calm down, Your Majesty calm down, Da Lang is also kind enough to relieve His Majesty's worries, but he has not experienced too much, so he speaks a little exaggerated, why should His Majesty be as knowledgeable as a child."

Fang Xuanling also quickly started to defend Li Yu;
"Your Majesty calm down, I see that Da Lang has something to say, why don't you tell him to finish it?"

A group of important ministers were all Li Yu's shareholders, and they all began to intercede and defend, which made it difficult for Li Shimin to say anything, and he waved his hands and confessed uneasy;

"You should be more careful when you speak, don't talk about the five majors and six majors with your mouth shut. This is the time for real swords and guns. It's no joke. You also have fifteen bundles of hair. Why is this still the case, really!"

Li Yu muttered a few words unconvinced;

"Why does Your Majesty always look down on me, and I didn't brag about the top five..."

"Why do I think you are not pleasing to the eye, I'm teaching you the truth, look at the things you did, the people who ate and drank in the east were drunk, and they didn't stop for a day or two, and then they went to the west to visit and drink On the way, a group of people will be beaten into useless people, forget it, don’t mention these today, so as not to make me angry.”

Du Ruhui saw that the adoptive son and adoptive father and father were about to quarrel again, so he quickly opened his mouth to accept the quarrel;
"Da Lang, you don't want to ask about the border, uncle, let me tell you, and the sons who are close to the border will be replaced again, and this amount can be said with less talk."

Li Yu looked at the three fingers that Du Ruhui stretched out, and tried to ask;

"Uncle said 300 million guan?"

"Exactly, this is already too little, and we still need to replace the equipment at the border areas first. Even so, we still have to buckle up. If the border areas are more generous, 500 million yuan will be enough." most suitable.

If the sons of the sixteen guards were to carry it out together, the number would be far worse. If there were five, six, and so many uncles, I would be able to spend a lot of money on it, and there would be nothing left. "

Li Shimin said with a wry smile and lowered his voice;

"Aiqing, you also said that the Yicang is a bottomless pit. Look at you? It is more than ten times stronger than the Yicang. You can scare people so much that they dare not speak."

Li Yu calculated carefully in his heart, and if he took back 400 principal for each of these dozens of families, it would cost about 1000 million. If he could sell 600 million guan today, he would take away [-], and there would be more than [-] left. It's enough to replace the weapons and armors, Li Yu, who has thought about everything, replied steadily this time;
"I would like to report to Uncle Du's family, if the amount uncle wants is below 500 million guan, and the amount needed for the righteous storehouse is only around [-], then there is no need to worry at all this time.

Now there are more and more people coming from outside. After a while, after the big households come, the nephew will go out to preside over the overall situation in person. He must arrange this number for the uncles.

If I don't have this ability, how much less do you need, just take it from my capital share of wine making, until I make up enough, this is the head office, right? "
