Chapter 149 Making a fortune
The two children are orphans. In this era, the only thing that can help them is the hospital run by the temple. The sickhouse is a charity organization set up by the temple, which mainly adopts those patients.
Keeping up orphans in the hospital is no good!
Jia Ping'an thought a lot and was very headache. In the end, he sent it to Duoduo and asked them to take care of it for a while.
He himself is thinking about how to make money.
At night, he tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep.
There are many ideas, but none of them want short-term results.
Especially what he wants to build is a nursing home, which requires a lot of money, and the general small troubles are useless.
After thinking for a long time, he relaxed and fell asleep.
He went to many places first.
"Zhang Hu is staring at someone?"
wipe!
He wanted to kill Zhang Hu as a good start to making a lot of money, but this guy came to stare at him.
This is Wang Qi's method.
Jia Ping'an then went to Shangshu Province to ask to see Li Ji.
"How do you read the art of war?" Li Ji felt that Jia Ping'an was talented in battle, and thought about sharpening it, and he might be a famous general in the future.
"I watch it every day." Jia Ping'an lied without blinking an eye. In fact, this guy has a lot of business recently, and he has forgotten the book of war.
"That's good." Li Ji was very pleased.
"British lord, there is something here..." Jia Pingan said: "The reason why the horses in the army wear out the most is the horseshoe, right?"
Li Ji nodded, "Han Wu attacked the Xiongnu back then, and Wei Huo led the army out of the fortress many times. Every time it seemed like a big victory, but the loss of horses made the big man overwhelmed... After those years of fighting, the Huns are no longer a threat, but the big man is also very Difficult, in order to raise funds to raise war horses, the finances of the big man are in jeopardy..."
He sighed, "The horse's hoof wears the most on a war horse. The skin of the horse's hoof looks solid, but it can be used for long-distance raids. When galloping on grasslands, dirt roads, or gravel, the thick skin will crack and wear off. , and then the flesh is injured... If a horse is injured to the flesh in the horse's hoof, it is almost useless."
He smiled and said: "If this matter can be resolved, it would be a great achievement, but unfortunately, no one has come up with a solution for thousands of years."
"Someone has a way."
This kid drank too much early in the morning and came to make me happy? Li Ji coughed dryly, "Let's look at this matter again."
The old man gave you a face, so leave quickly.
Jia Pingan said seriously: "Mr. British, just ask me, can this credit be exchanged for 10,000 guan?"
Is this kid crazy?
Li Ji doesn’t think so. Jia Ping’an has received several rewards recently. The family looks ordinary, but there is meat inside!
"You..." Li Ji smiled, "Ten thousand is definitely worth it."
But who can get the ten thousand gongs?
Li Ji noticed that Jia Ping'an's eyes were shining.
"I also ask the British government to speak on behalf of a certain person. If a certain person makes this happen, can the 10,000 yuan be given by the court?"
Li Ji's eyes were still warm, "If this is not possible..."
"It's just a shame." If he can't figure it out, he will become a big talker, and he will become the object of everyone's ridicule in the future.
"It's good that you know." Li Ji usually sees that someone is going to be unlucky, probably because of the attitude of watching a capsized ship from the Yellow Crane Tower, silently, without reminding, and not taking action...
"If you are short of money, just tell the old man, the old man still has a lot of money at home."
Let Li Ji take the initiative to offer money... If Cheng Zhijie and the others hear this, they will definitely be sour.
But Jia Ping'an said firmly: "I also invite the British public to speak for XX."
He is not qualified to enter the court, Li Ji will meet with the emperor, Changsun Wuji and others every day to open his mouth.
Can…
After Li Ji waited for him to leave, he first asked someone to call his grandson who was hanging out with Liang Jianfang.
"Is Jia Ping'an short of money?" Li Ji couldn't find the motive, and in the end he could only attribute it to this reason.
"No way!" Li Jingye looked dazed, Li Ji's hands were a little itchy because of his ridiculously generous body, "My brother's family is simple, so he raised an iron-eating beast, and that iron-eating beast would go out every day to look for food. , either a chicken or a duck... and his family has received several rewards, quite a few!"
"Then why..."
Li Ji really couldn't figure it out.
Li Jingye is curious, "Ah Weng, why what?"
"Why don't you study at home honestly!" Li Jiwen's eyes became colder, and Li Jingye shuddered, "Is Ah Weng going to beat his grandson? Come here, send me a stick, thicker!"
Someone outside answered, Li Ji's face was livid, he pointed outside and said nothing.
"Ah Weng..." Li Jingye looked a little disappointed.
This baby wants to be beaten!
He really wanted to be beaten hard.
Li Ji covered his forehead, "Get out!"
A small official came in from outside, holding a mace in his hand, "Mr. England, I don't have a wooden stick. I just found the mace that I don't know who dropped it last time. Can it be used?"
Looking at the rusty mace, Li Jingye couldn't help shivering, "Ah Weng, my grandson is leaving."
"Wait!"
Li Ji was furious, but Li Jingye was faster and ran away in no time.
"Ah Weng, elder brother said, the small stick accepts, the big stick goes away...otherwise it is unfilial."
Li Ji looked strange, and suddenly laughed.
This man who has always shown others with a gentle smile, now smiles heartily, which makes all the little officials rejoice.
"Prince England, it's time to enter the palace."
Today, on the first day of the lunar new year, a China-North Korea hearing was held in the palace.
All the way into the palace, I met many officials on the way.
"British public."
Li Ji turned around and nodded slightly when he saw that it was Cui Jian, a doctor from the Ministry of Officials.
Everyone is from Shandong, but Li Ji is generally not talkative in court.
Can promote chest...
"The British public looked much more energetic."
The two exchanged a few pleasantries, and then went outside the Tai Chi Hall.
Li Ji noticed that Cui Jian was eager to try a few times, stretching and shrinking his hands, but finally held back.
What is he trying to do?
Li Ji shook his head.
Every new moon, that is, the first and fifteenth day of the new year, the emperor will hold a large-scale court meeting in the Taiji Hall, which is called China and North Korea listening to politics.
"Cheng Zhijie!"
Someone was shouting, Li Ji looked up, but it was that old thief Liang Jianfang.
Cheng Zhijie put a mouse on the side, but Liang Jianfang couldn't stand it screaming!
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he could only raise his head in response.
Liang Jianfang triumphantly said to Su Dingfang beside him, "Look, old Su, the old man said that Lao Cheng is not a mouse, look, how can a mouse look up..."
I really want to beat you to death! Cheng Zhijie clenched his fists.
Su Dingfang sighed: "I am ashamed to be with you."
Both of them have the same name. When Su Dingfang said this, Liang Jianfang became angry.
Bang bang bang bang bang bang!
The military generals watched the two big brothers fighting, and instead of persuading them, they commented on it.
"General Liang's punch is good, it's quite a surprise attack."
"Su Lang Jiang's kick is also good."
The civil servants stood on the other side, also whispering.
"What do you think of the auxiliary machine?"
As the prime minister, Changsun Wuji had no intention of suppressing such rude behavior at all, and said flatly: "This is a demonstration against us."
The fight over there seems to be a draw.
"Old Su, after these years, your fists and feet have become more and more unbearable, like a woman!" Liang Jianfang's eyes were bruised, but he was staring at the civil servant and yelling.
Su Dingfang was a ruthless character who dared to charge into battle with more than two hundred horses back then, "I still dare to lead a hundred horses into battle, how dare you?"
Mom sells batches!
Many generals present were cursing.
On this, none of them are as good as Su Dingfang.
Old Su led more than two hundred horsemen to attack Jieli Khan's big tent by surprise, and Jieli Khan fled in embarrassment with dozens of horsemen.
In that battle, Datang beheaded more than 10,000 people and captured more than 100,000 people... The first battle broke the backbone of the Eastern Turks.
Such a titan, if not appreciated by the first emperor, would have already made great achievements.
Li Zhi is here.
"Your Majesty to..."
Wang Zhongliang was shouting loudly, but the scene was still noisy.
Wang Zhongliang was angry, but Li Zhi said with a smile: "You generals are still in good health. This is the blessing of the Tang Dynasty and my blessing."
"I have seen His Majesty."
If one of these generals is released, the surrounding countries will tremble.
And here the stars will twinkle.
Li Zhi looked at the civil servant and smiled slightly.
Civilian officials are the root of controlling Datang, and military commanders are the knife to ensure the safety of Datang and his emperor.
He wishes to hold a knife in one hand and a stick in the other...
Currently knives are okay, but sticks... are not very reliable.
He glanced at Liang Jianfang.
Old Liang grinned.
This silly old fool.
Li Zhi smiled and looked at Cheng Zhijie.
Old Cheng is calm, still pretending to be a mouse.
After making great achievements but pretending to be a mouse, this old Cheng is a bit cunning.
And too timid.
Li Zhi's eyes turned to Su Dingfang.
Su Dingfang squinted his eyes and raised his head.
This is a titan.
And there is no doubt that Su Dingfang is more pure than others.
This is a general worthy of reuse.
And Li Ji...
This is the number one general of the Tang Dynasty after Li Jing, and needs to be used with caution.
Don't use him for small battles.
These thoughts were spinning in Li Zhi's mind, but it was only for a moment.
Then the meeting began.
Li Ji is listening.
After the discussion of major issues was completed, he left the shift.
"Your Majesty, I have something to do."
Li Zhi nodded with a smile, "Please speak, Mr. British."
Li Ji glanced at the generals, "Your Majesty, some people say that it can solve the loss of horseshoes..."
The hall was quiet for a moment, and then it exploded.
Liang Jianfang shouted: "Mr. Ying, you can't speak nonsense! Who said that? Stand up, the old man is close to him!"
Su Dingfang's eyes sparkled, "If you can solve the loss of the horse's hoof, it will be a great achievement! This old man should lead the horse for him."
Cheng Zhijie raised his head sharply, "Those years of fighting, I remember that when the late emperor conquered Goryeo, why didn't he take advantage of the victory to pursue it? It must be impossible, but the horse wasted as much as 70%, how to fight again? If anyone can solve the horseshoe issue, that is Military merit!"
The generals nodded one after another.
On the side of the civil servants, Changsun Wuji also said: "This matter is indeed important, but Mr. Ying, can this person be trusted?"
Everyone calmed down.
"Yes! Who is this person?" Li Zhi was also moved.
Li Ji didn't hesitate, but he had no idea, "Jia Pingan of Baiqi."
"he?"
It turned out to be the broom star, the eldest grandson Wuji returned to work.
Chu Suiliang said: "Does a young man dare to tease the monarchs and ministers of the court?"
Most of the generals couldn't hide their disappointment.
"This kind of thing, if it is a veteran, then the old man will believe it. A young man... Ha ha!"
This is the attitude of most people.
It’s like later generations are struggling to pursue the practical technology of controllable nuclear fusion. A teenager who graduated from elementary school said: Brother has a way. Those experts would just scoff.
We have studied nuclear fusion for a lifetime, but there is no way, you are a primary school student...
Li Ji had no idea, so he bit his bullet and said: "Your Majesty, then Jia Ping'an asked my minister to speak... If it can be done, please reward him with ten thousand guan."
Well…
Civilian officials are dumb.
The general responded.
Liang Jianfang was the first to come forward, "Your Majesty, if this matter can be resolved, 10,000 guan...that's free."
He turned sideways and said to everyone: "Every time the horse goes out to battle, the horse is fat and strong, but when it comes back, it has lost a lot. Was it killed by the enemy? No, it is more likely that the horse's hoof was damaged and had to be discarded. Shang Shusheng knows, How much food will be spent every year because of the loss of war horses."
Li Ji nodded and endorsed it.
Liang Jianfang said: "Your Majesty, I think... let him try it, and it's nothing to become 10,000. If it doesn't work, I will naturally talk to him."
Talk with your fists.
Chu Suiliang's heart moved slightly, and he felt a little happy.
Liang Jianfang may seem vulgar, but this person is rough and fine. He said that Xun Jia was talking in peace, which meant punishment.
Li Zhi said with a smile: "If such things are successful or not, the court will not suffer, yes."
Li Ji returned to work.
Chu Suiliang whispered in front of him: "Although you don't suffer a loss, you can tease the emperor and ministers of the court. Isn't this a crime?"
Li Ji was indifferent.
Chu Suiliang punched nothing, feeling quite uncomfortable.
The court meeting ended later, and everyone filed out.
"Old Su!" Liang Jianfang caught up with Su Dingfang, the two muttered for a while, and then went to find Cheng Zhijie...
The last few veterans went together shoulder to shoulder.
Li Ji felt a strong sense of foreboding. He felt that Jia Ping'an might be tossed about by these old fellows.
…
Baiqi, Jia Ping'an is safe today, talking with General Heng Ha in the duty room.
"... Between men and women, don't bow your head too much. If you bow your head too much, women will naturally look down on you." Jia Pingan is popularizing emotional knowledge to the two sticks.
"It can't be too much." Bao Dong still praised him very much.
Lei Hong pulled the beard on his face, and said bitterly: "Don't bow your head, she doesn't like you!"
Jia Pingan wondered: "It's fine if she doesn't like you. Is she the only woman in the world? There are thousands of women in the world, and the one who should be you naturally likes you. But more people don't like you, which is normal!"
He took out a copper coin, "You are not a copper coin, why should every woman like you?"
Lei Hong nodded, "Joining the army said something about it. It turns out that you can't be too rigid. If you can't do it here, you can change to another place. If this woman can't do it, you can change to another woman... Wonderful! Thousands of women in the world can't be changed in one life, wonderful!"
Is this trying to be a scumbag? My sister!
Bao Dong is eating nuts, and the table is covered with skins.
Jia Pingan patted the table, "It's a matter of discussion!"
"Oh!" Bao Dong put down a bag of nuts.
Jia Pingan picked it up and peeled it off.
Bao Dong: "You join the army..."
Jia Ping'an said seriously: "This is the second reason that X taught you to wait. X can make you not eat nuts, but X can eat them. Why? Because X is your superior. And X can make those women like X , but you can’t, why? Because a certain… is more handsome than you, can speak better than you… has more money and power than you…”
Bao Dongxin is dying...
Lei Hong felt that joining the army was a bit shameless.
Eating nuts and teaching two subordinates a lesson, this kind of life is not enough in a lifetime.
The door outside is stupid.
He saw a group of prestigious veterans approaching, thought they were passing by, so he stood up straight without looking sideways.
Can…
The group of veterans came up to him, and one of them scolded, "This is Baiqi? Why does it look like a brothel?"
Well!
No one has ever despised Baiqi like this.
A few hundred riders rushed out of it, and just about to make a move, they were all smiles.
"Meet the generals."
The faces of several Baiqi turned red, but they were happy.
Su Dingfang waved his hand, "Is it possible for the old man to go in?"
This is an honor that even if you ask your parents to sue your grandmother!
Menzi trembled: "Yes, yes, yes!"
Liang Jianfang wanted to rush in carelessly, but Cheng Zhijie held him back, frowned and said, "I'll be a guest when I come, let him report."
Men Zi scrambled and rushed in, shouting: "Captain! Shao Zhongguan..."
Shaopeng and Tang Xu couldn't help being furious when they were drinking tea and having fun.
Tang Xu scolded: "Why are you panicking? Who is here? Could it be your father?"
If my father... had so many strong fathers, how good would it be? Menzi jumped and pointed outside and shouted, "It's Lu Guogong and the others!"
Damn it!
Shao Peng wiped his face and said solemnly: "Hurry up to meet him."
Tang Xu was so excited that he strode out.
Once outside the door, seeing all the veterans, even Shaopeng bowed his hands and saluted, turning sideways solemnly to invite them in.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Liang Jianfang was the first to go in regardless.
"Look, this house is well built." Liang Jianfang went over and patted the door.
The hundred riders outside stood there respectfully, with reverent expressions.
This group of veterans can be called the living fossils of the Great Tang Conquest. The number of lives in each person's hands is innumerable. The prestige is so famous... the kind that can stop children from crying at night.
Liang Jianfang looked around, "Where's Xiao Jia?"
Tang Xu's heart trembled, "Dare to ask the general..."
Liang Jianfang glanced at him, "I heard that you followed the old man to go to war?"
Tang Xu stood with his arms tied, "Yes, the lower official once went out with the general. Is that the lower official or the captain."
Liang Jianfang scolded: "Then how can the old man's words be ignored?"
Tang Xu was shocked and shouted: "Xiao Jia!"
Jia Pingan, who was teaching his subordinates the secrets of chasing women, came out. Seeing that it was Liang Jianfang and others, he knew that Li Ji had brought his advice to the court.
"Meet the generals."
Hundred riders dared not show their spirits when they saw this group of veterans, but Jia Pingan smiled and cupped his hands, then turned sideways, "I invite all generals to come in and serve tea."
Liang Jianfang nodded, and then a group of people filed in.
Tang Xu blinked, "Little Jia is so close to veterans?"
He was envious.
Shaopeng was a little apprehensive, "These are the killing gods who kill Yingye, Xiao Jia is afraid that he will not be able to handle them as a young man."
"Lieutenant, those generals are inside, do you want someone to wait on you?"
"Yes! Captain, a certain tea maker is a must."
"Someone will fan the wind." A Baiqi was kicked out by Tang Xu.
Everyone wants to go in and serve those veterans. If they can get a good word, they will be happy for half a year.
Jia Ping'an's voice came from inside, "Bao Dong! Come in and make tea!"
Bao Dong responded ecstatically, "Here we come."
Tang Xu dedicated his tea set, the best tea...
"You can't do that, take ours. Shao Peng took out his own tea.
"Dog servant!" Tang Xu looked at him, "Old Shao, yesterday someone asked you if you have good tea, but you said no, what is this?"
Shao Peng said indifferently: "Bitch, that's a good tea from our bottom of the box."
Tang Xu shouted: "Get some good peppercorns, the tea will not taste good without good peppercorns."
