Modern people who traveled through the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 11

Cheng Yaojin walked out of the hall proudly, and a group of ministers immediately surrounded him, saying hello to Cheng Yaojin in various ways, all wanting to get a sip of soup from Cheng Yaojin, they all know that salt is a violent industry, who would not be greedy.

Yu Chigong dismissed the ministers surrounding Cheng Yaojin, and said: "Brother Cheng, we haven't had a drink together for a long time, let's go, go to my house for a few drinks." After speaking, he pulled Cheng Yaojin Walking outside, he didn't care about the ministers behind him cursing Yu Chigong.

Pulling Cheng Yaojin back to Duke E's mansion, the loud gong shouted as soon as he entered the door.

"Housekeeper, quickly bring out the old man's good wine. The old man wants to have a few drinks with Lu Guogong. After finishing speaking, he dragged Cheng Yaojin into the living room."

Cheng Yaojin didn't say anything along the way. He also knew that it was impossible for him to take it all by himself now. Although Li Er was carrying it with him, he still underestimated the violent industry of salt. In this case, he might as well split it out. Give some soup to some people, but not everyone has the face to let him share the soup with the old goblin. Yu Chigong like him is good, but he is simple and has a bad temper. If anyone dares to make trouble in the future, you don’t have to say it yourself, Yuchi Gong dares to take it Seeing his pair of water-milled bamboo-jointed steel whips come to the door, and Qin Qiong is also counted. This big brother is getting worse and worse, and he will no longer go to court.

"It's really a cold tea, hey!"

Cheng Yaojin was pulled back to reality by Yuchi Gong's loud voice before he finished feeling, only to hear Yuchi's old man shouting at Cheng Yaojin.

"Brother, we have been comrades-in-arms for many years. You know what kind of temper my brother has, and I don't come here for those fake things. I'll just say it. You know that my temper has offended many people. Even His Majesty is dissatisfied with my brother." , but my brother has to support a large family, brother, you have to help him, right?" Yuchi immediately said that he was extremely miserable.

"Okay, brother Yuchi said it straight, brother, I won't go around with you, it's impossible to divide, so don't worry."

Seeing what Yuchi was about to say, he hurriedly stopped him, and continued, "You also know that I share with His Majesty, and I have to give [-]% to my godson, and [-]% to myself, and I have to think about my own family too, right? ? Although the share is gone, I can give you this fine salt at the cost price, as for how much you sell and where you sell it, my brother will never ask, what do you think?"

Yuchi thought, this is also Cheng Yaojin's bottom line, which is not bad, His Majesty and Cheng Yaojin don't have many stores, and their own market is still very big, but I still have to ask, who else is treated the same as me, Although he, Yuchi, has a straight temper, he is not stupid. If there are many like him who take the cost price from Cheng Yaojin, the competition will be greater, and the money will be much less.

"Brother, it's not that I'm greedy. I want to ask you, who do you give the cost price of salt to? You also know that money is not easy to earn in this world, right?" Yuchi looked at Cheng Yaojin apprehensively after asking.

"Brother, don't worry, my brother will not give more than three. You also know the relationship between me and brother Qin Qiong, and brother Qin Qiong is not in good health recently, so I have to take care of it, right? There is also Li Xiaogong, and finally Li Jing."

"Li Xiaogong, you also know that he is a member of the royal family and the king of Hejian County. With him and His Majesty, the family must not dare to make any moves. As for Li Jing, everyone knows that he is incomparable in war and command, but he is the supporter of the family. It's really not good, Li Jing and you Yuchi idiots are straight-hearted, and everyone knows his credit. It is no exaggeration to say that his credit is a bit high. Although His Majesty will not guard against Li Jing, Li Jing does not dare to do anything out of line , I have always been cautious, and my life is not good."

Yuchi Gong was relieved when he heard that, and immediately shouted happily: "Thank you, brother. At this time, the housekeeper also brought the good wine and roast lamb that Yuchi had privately kept."

Yu Chigong picked up the wine glass and said: "I don't want to thank you for your kindness, and my brother doesn't know how to say those compliments. It's all in the wine. I'll do it first. Brother, you can do whatever you want." After finishing speaking, he directly drank a bowl of wine.

Cheng Yaojin didn't say anything, picked up the wine and drank with Yu Chigong.

……

When Zhao Han was talking about the marriage between the Seventh Princess and Dong Yong, the steward of the Cheng family entered the living room and said, "Young Master Zhao, someone is coming from the palace, and they are still holding the imperial decree. Please, Mr. Zhao, go out and receive the decree. Please go out and receive the decree, Mr. Zhao!" , don’t make the people in the palace wait any longer.”

As soon as Zhao Han heard that his reward was coming, he stood up happily, stopped teasing Cheng Chuxue, and walked out quickly, Cheng Chuxue pouted behind her, and walked out with an unhappy look on her face. Unhappy, I thought to myself, what a disappointment, brother Zhao Han hasn't finished speaking, so he won't be late.

When Zhao Han walked into the front hall, there were already three brothers of the Cheng family standing in the hall, and even Mrs. Cheng came out, as well as the eunuch in the palace, who was the eunuch next to Li Er when he and Cheng Yaojin entered the palace last night.

Zhao Han said hello to everyone first and then said: "Thank you, Eunuch Zhang, let's go for a trip." After speaking, he took out a glass bead and glass wine glass from his pocket, which was exchanged from the system mall for an exchange point, and handed it to Eunuch Zhang and said. : "Eunuch Zhang, don't dislike a little thing. In addition, this glazed wine glass is given to His Majesty by your minister."

Eunuch Zhang saw such a beautiful glass bead, there are several good-looking colors in it, it must be extraordinary, and this glass wine glass is so transparent, much better than the glass offered by Hu merchants before, a satisfied smile leaked from his face, and his heart Said: "As expected of a person whom His Majesty values, he is still so good at dealing with things. It seems that we will get in touch more in the future."

Then he said to Zhao Han: "Let's not gossip anymore, Uncle Lan Tian will accept the order first."

Then he said: "By God, the emperor ordered that Zhao Han develop low-priced fine salt for the sake of the people of the Tang Dynasty... (the word N is omitted here), and Zhao Han is hereby granted the title of Lantianbo, with [-] households in the city. In addition, I knew that Zhao Han lived in Xingyang Village, so I sent Xingyang Village to Lan Tianbo, and the food town was also transferred to Xingyang Village, hereby."

(By God, the emperor ordered that there is no such thing as Tang Dynasty. If you feel that you think of domineering, you will add it. Don’t worry about it.)
"Thank you for the reward, Your Majesty. After Zhao Han finished speaking, he stepped forward to accept the imperial decree," he said with a smile, "Eunuch Zhang is tired from such a hasty journey. The steward serves tea quickly, and Eunuch Zhang sits down quickly."

At this moment, the three Cheng family brothers and Mrs. Cheng stepped forward and said to Zhao Han, "Congratulations to Uncle Lan Tian."

Mrs. Cheng said: "Xiaohan, you are also a person with a title now, and the other aunts don't say much. If you work hard, it can be regarded as a kindness to your dead adoptive father. Don't lose his face. Your adoptive father You have to be proud all your life, remember, if you want to embarrass him, your Uncle Cheng will not let you go."

Cheng Chuxue was still angry because she hadn't finished listening to Zhao Han's story about the Seven Fairies, so she pouted her mouth and didn't step forward, but just stood behind. The three brothers of the Cheng family came over with a smile and grabbed Zhao Han's shoulders and said: " Brother Xiaohan congratulates you on getting the title, the three of us are still white, you want to treat us."

Cheng Chubi quietly said to Zhao Han: "How about we sneak away to Pingkangfang to celebrate your title at night?" After speaking, he sneaked a glance at Mrs. Cheng, afraid that Mrs. Cheng would hear.

Zhao Han: "..."
