The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

Li Shimin and Empress Changsun came to Zhao Chen's tavern, just in time for lunch.

Li Ruoshuang was having dinner with Zhao Chen.

Today, Fan Yanglu's family has sent over one hundred strings of silver.

Zhao Chen, Ruoshuang! Queen Changsun shouted immediately after not seeing Zhao Chen for some days.

Aunt! Zhao Chen was talking to Li Ruoshuang about growing peppers in Wannian County when he heard Mrs. Li calling him.

When he looked up, he saw Old Li Tou coming over with Mrs. Li on his arm.

Zhao Chen immediately showed a smile on his face, stood up, and walked to the door of the tavern to greet him.

My aunt is coming today. I should send someone here to inform Zhao Chen first. Zhao Chen helped Queen Changsun sit down at the table.

I just wanted to come here temporarily. Come on, here are some pastries for you. Empress Changsun extended her hand towards Li Shimin.

Li Shimin reluctantly handed over the box.

He carried this box all the way because Queen Changsun wanted to bring Zhao Chen some palace food.

Oh, it’s so difficult for me!

Li Shimin sighed in his heart.

Zhao Chen, this is Peach Blossom Cake, Poria Cake with Poria Cake, Poria Cake with Cake... Queen Changsun opened the box and introduced them to Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen, your aunt made these by hand. You can't give them away. Li Shimin sat aside and said sourly.

These pastries were not made by the eunuchs in the palace.

But Empress Changsun made it herself.

Knowing that she was coming to Zhao Chen's place today, Queen Changsun had been busy all morning.

When Li Shimin went to court, he was hungry and wanted to eat a piece, but Queen Changsun stopped him.

Now seeing Queen Changsun handing all these things to Zhao Chen, Li Shimin instantly turned into lemon essence.

Of course I want to try my aunt's craftsmanship. Miss Ruoshuang, you should try it too. Zhao Chen said with a smile.

He took out two pieces of peach blossom cake from the box and handed one to Li Ruoshuang.

Li Ruoshuang didn't know whether she should accept it or not.

She really didn't expect that Queen Changsun would be so kind to Zhao Chen.

This is simply doting.

Even the current prince Li Chengqian probably doesn't have this blessing, right?

The Queen personally made the pastry for Zhao Chen?

Li Ruoshuang felt that her outlook on life had been refreshed today.

And His Majesty the Emperor didn't seem to think anything was wrong.

What is Zhao Chen's identity?

Li Ruoshuang thought to herself.

Ruoshuang, would you like to try a piece and see how it tastes? Queen Changsun knew that Li Ruoshuang was thinking a lot, so she said to her with a smile.

Queen Changsun was also a little worried that Li Ruoshuang's strange look would make Zhao Chen suspicious.

Zhao Chen is a smart man. If he arouses suspicion, their identity will be exposed 90% of the time.

Well, okay! Li Ruoshuang nodded and took the peach blossom cake handed over by Zhao Chen.

Well, this tastes very good. Old Li Tou, you are so lucky. Your aunt is so good at her craftsmanship. It's so easy for you. Zhao Chen took a bite and said to Li Shimin with a smile.

Li Shimin's face immediately fell.

Ever since Empress Changsun fell ill, he had never tasted her craftsmanship.

Blessing? That’s why you, Zhao Chen, are lucky!

Zhao Chen, I see you are not young anymore. If you have a girl you like, your aunt and I can help you matchmaker! Li Shimin looked at Zhao Chen and said with a smile.

Yes, have you fallen in love with any girl? My aunt will help you find a matchmaker. Empress Changsun said to Zhao Chen with a smile.

Li Ruoshuang looked at the people in front of her and felt a little strange.

His Majesty the Emperor and the Empress were so kind to Zhao Chen!

Help with matchmaking?

I'm afraid it's just them

Isn’t it the kind of treatment only a child can get?

What do you think of Ruoshuang? I have a good relationship with her mother. If you are interested... Empress Changsun said with a smile.

Since the two of them were riding the same horse on the street, they probably had a good relationship.

Queen Changsun decided to go with the flow.

If possible, there would be someone to help her take care of Zhao Chen...

Ahem! Zhao Chen was eating peach blossom cake and almost choked to death.

Slow down! Queen Changsun handed Zhao Chen a cup of tea and said slightly reproachfully.

Aunt, Miss Ruoshuang and I are good friends. We should wait until I get over my anger to get married... Zhao Chen took a sip of tea, calmed down, and said casually.

After hearing Zhao Chen say that he was suffering from Qi disease, Queen Changsun's eyes suddenly darkened.

There was a silence in the tavern.

Li Ruoshuang looked at Zhao Chen and sighed slightly in her heart.

Xindao Zhao Chen is so good, but he is plagued by stubborn illnesses and cannot do many things at will!

Li Shimin held Queen Changsun's hand, and he felt that Queen Changsun was depressed.

Boy Zhao, I heard that many people came to you to buy saltpeter yesterday. Tell me, how much money did you make? Li Shimin said with a smile.

He just deliberately avoided the previous topic.

If you didn't tell me, I would have almost forgotten that last night we sold 10,000 kilograms of saltpeter ore at seventeen cents per catty, and received a total of one hundred and seventy cents.

Excluding expenses, the net profit is one hundred and fifty.

Old Li Tou, you have to know that this has only been three days, and it's just the beginning. I estimate that in these two months, we can earn ten thousand yuan. Zhao Chen said to Li Shimin with a smile.

This is just the income from one place in Chang'an City.

If all the saltpeter mines in Datang were mined by them, their income in these two months would be estimated to be more than one million yuan.

This is definitely a huge benefit

beneficial.

Of course, this will also be an extrapolated number.

There are so many! Li Shimin's face was shocked and he looked at Zhao Chen in surprise.

He thought that the most he could do was earn a few coins.

Although the money is small, it is better than nothing.

But he definitely didn't expect there would be more than a hundred.

More than a hundred strings!

For ordinary people, that is money that cannot be earned in several lifetimes.

And they actually made money in three days.

Queen Changsun looked at Zhao Chen with a smile on her face.

He thought to himself, Zhao Chen, this kid, always surprises no matter what he does.

When she came, Li Shimin also told her that he would probably make a few bucks this time. Who knew, Zhao Chen would be much better than he expected.

What's this? Once our peppers are on the market, you will know what it means to make money! Zhao Chen said with a faint smile and waved his hand.

In another month, the freshly planted peppers in Wannian County will have a good harvest.

When these peppers are on the market, all the rich people who hide them will cry and call them daddy!

What is this pepper? Queen Changsun asked curiously.

She had never seen chili peppers. Li Shimin came to eat fried pork with chili peppers several times, but Empress Changsun never came.

This chili pepper is a spice like pepper, but the taste is even better. Unfortunately, madam, you can't eat these things. Li Shimin explained, sighing again.

It's okay. After a while, my aunt gets better. I'll personally deliver some chili peppers. Zhao Chen said with a smile.

He didn't know that Queen Changsun was also suffering from qi disease just like him.

It was just that Queen Changsun was in poor health.

Haha, I think so too. When you, Mr. Zhao, and your aunt are well, we can all get together. Li Shimin said with a smile.
