Chapter 808 Wolf ambition, let's be a minister
Jia Ping'an was taken aback.
What husband and wife?
What does this woman mean?
Could it be that Li Jiao lied that I, Jia, was her husband in order to make a big banner out of tiger skin?
This liar…what should he do?
Li Jiao blushed with anger, and cursed: "Bitch, talk nonsense!"
She glanced at Jia Pingan.
Don't get me wrong, I never said you were my husband...
But Jia Ping'an's weird eyes clearly felt that she had said it.
He misunderstood me, what should I do? explain? Explaining... it's like a cover-up.
I…
Hou's face was as red as a peach.
Ms. Zhang sneered and said, "It's really frivolous to flirt in front of me."
Li Jiao didn't care about her threats, but she couldn't stand the slander. She said coldly, "Do you know the consequences of spreading rumors? You said I hooked up your old customers. Where is the evidence? If it's sold out, who am I supposed to hook? If I sue the city magistrate this time, do you know what the consequences will be?"
This **** has sharp teeth... Zhang said with a sneer, "You can do it yourself."
Just now Li Jiao's aura suddenly increased, Jia Pingan looked a little funny.
This woman was spoiled and spoiled since she was a child, and was sought after by some officials in Luoyang. They wanted to show their favor to the eldest grandson Wuji through her, so she developed such an aura. If you go out to pretend to be a wife, you don't even need to use acting skills.
"Let's rent a store." Jia Ping'an felt that the scale was large, so he had to consider regular operation.
Li Jiao also thought about it, but a while ago he bought a servant and spent all his money.
"I bought people and spent all my money."
Well!
You actually bought someone... Jia Pingan was confused, "Didn't I say hire someone?"
Who buys? Powerful and rich, if you buy someone from a down-and-out woman, you are not afraid of being coveted?
Besides, slaves and maidservants are not cheap, costing tens of thousands of dollars... There are three women and two men here, let alone more than 100,000 dollars. This girl turned out to be a little rich woman?
But Jia Pingan understood when he thought about it. Changsun Wuji was favored and trusted by the first emperor, and the money was pouring in. He was really not short of money. He didn't care too much about Li Jiao's old mother, who had an affair with Li Jiao's old mother, and just spent money.
So Li Jiao, a girl with a strong sense of superiority, was smashed out.
But why not hire someone?
"I'm afraid they will learn how to cook..."
Li Jiao looked confident, "Although it is more expensive to buy people, these servants are my people, and life and death are in my hands. Now I teach them the method of cooking, so I can save myself and feel at ease."
You really have an aristocratic mindset!
Li Jiao glanced at him and thought, do you have other ideas?
Jia Pingan said quietly: "You don't know how to teach Dahong?"
Li Jiao shook her head and glanced at Dahong in front of her with soft eyes, "Dahong and I have been with me for many years. When I first arrived in Chang'an, Auntie took me to the eldest grandson's house. As soon as I entered the door, I encountered difficulties. Someone ordered the maid to insult me and say I'm a bastard, and I wanted to hit me with a raised hand... It was Dahong who stood in front of me, she knew she couldn't resist, so she was beaten for a long time, her face was swollen... But even so, she was still strong Laugh and say it's just a little pain."
"Can you ask someone to sign the contract?"
Jia Ping'an felt that this woman was a bit stubborn, "You buy a few people to help, for example, sign a contract for five years or ten years, and agree not to leak the matter of cooking, otherwise you will be fined a lot..."
Li Jiao's eyes widened, "Can it still be like this?"
In addition to purchasing, servants can also exchange value. For example, it is agreed to buy you, how much is it worth in each year, and you will be free after working for a few years. On this basis, other things can be agreed, such as confidentiality clauses...
The price of hired servants is much cheaper than those purchased at full price.
Jia Pingan said flatly: "There are so many things you don't know."
Will you die if you don’t hate me?
Li Jiao was shivering and cold.
"gone."
"Wait a minute." Li Jiao stopped him, "Mr. Wuyang, I haven't thanked you yet. Without your ideas and cooking methods, I wouldn't be where I am today. Or..."
Beautiful pupils turned, and his pitiful face reminded Jia Ping'an of Xiaobaihua Xincheng.
"Why don't I share this business with you...70 percent of it?"
Are you embarrassed to ask for 70%? It's not bad to get three achievements.
"hehe."
Jia Ping'an chuckled.
This woman actually wanted to use money to lure him into the business, so this business has the strongest backing, and she also has a backing... Everyone is a shareholder, if someone bullies me, don't you hold out your hand?
"Seventy percent! I think it's okay..."
This greedy man, I spent more than 100,000 yuan to get the business I have today, and you actually want to take 70% of it in one fell swoop...
Li Jiao felt that she was leading wolves into the house, and she wanted to cry because of her heartache.
Repent?
No, I can't go back on my word even if I die... A promise!
Jia Ping'an was actually teasing her. Seeing her ugly face, he couldn't help feeling better, "But I'm not short of money, so I don't need to talk about it."
Yes, I forgot that he has several businesses, and he makes a lot of money every year.
Sorrow!
Li Jiao, Li Jiao, when will you be as rich as him?
keep it up!
Li Jiao secretly swore that she would become a famous businesswoman in Chang'an.
Let Master Jia look at you with admiration!
Entering Daodefang, Jia Pingan was thinking about the Guozijian, while eating snacks.
Those famous people in Shandong were beaten by him this time, and they were defeated at the first step. I don’t know how many people in Chang’an City were secretly laughing, and even celebrating.
Shandong gentry are very talented, and they can be regarded as the orthodox sect of cultivating immortals, but those casual cultivators combined should not be underestimated. After the Shandong gentry emerges, it will seize official resources, and the life of casual cultivators will only become more and more difficult.
Jia Pingan took a breath of anger for them, and instantly became a man of the day in the world of casual cultivators.
Ha ha ha ha!
Jia Ping'an only felt refreshed.
"Woooooh! Don't run, brother!"
As soon as the door of Jia's house opened, Jia Yu sprang out like a wild horse, followed by a howling Dou Dou chasing after him.
Is this another conflict?
Jia Ping'an sighed helplessly. It was really worrying to have two little magic stars in the family. Being cute makes you soft-hearted, and being hateful makes you wish you could give it a few cents, or stir-fried pork with bamboo shoots.
"You bully me! You bully me!" DouDou yelled while crying.
Jia Yu turned his head and said triumphantly: "Come and chase! If you catch up, I will let you fight, you chase!"
Before he finished speaking, he tripped over the dirt on the ground, slammed, and landed on his face.
Doudou was startled, cheered and rushed over, grabbing his brother.
"Don't move, I'm going to hit you!"
Doudou raised his small fist in a brazen manner.
Jia Yu looked up...
That face was scratched by the ground with a few more scars, and blood was flowing.
"Wow!"
Jia Yu howled.
Two unlucky kids!
Jia Pingan got off his horse and went over, picked up Jia Yu, carefully checked that the problem was not serious, and scolded: "Why do you bully my sister?"
Jia Yu cried and said, "Doudou kicked me first..."
Doudou said indignantly, "You pushed me first!"
The child's lawsuit was unclear, Jia Ping'an let go, "Go home."
Back home, Jia Yu went in crying, "Aniang, Aniang."
Wei Wushuang was puzzled and looked up...
this is my son?
Face full of flowers!
"how did you make it?"
"I fell."
"Why did you fall?"
"I... chase me around."
Doudou lay on her stomach in Su Ho's arms, pouted her little butt, and raised her head when she heard the words, "Mother, brother bully me first!"
Wei Wushuang frowned, ready to deal with his son.
"That's all." Jia Ping'an felt that there was no need to put these things on the line. "The children are still young, and it's normal to fight and fight. It's just that you can't indulge too much, and bullying people is not okay."
Wei Wushuang turned his face away, "My husband doesn't know... Last time, the children of relatives often fought at home, and then went out to visit and hurt other people's children. The two families were best friends, so they became enemies... Regardless of the time, there will be endless troubles when you grow up."
Why is this woman so awkward?
Jia Pingan said: "Children can't be indulgent, but they can't overcorrect. They behave well all day long. Can children have fun in childhood?"
Wei Wushuang and Su Ho Qiqi looked at him puzzled.
Am I wrong?
Are these two girls trying to rebel?
Wei Wushuang nodded, "Those families in Chang'an teach their children like this, husband, you..."
"But this is my child!" The two concepts don't blend at all, which made Jia Pingan angry, "I will teach my child. Why do we have to abide by those cumbersome rules since childhood? Don't our children Teach? But the rules that bind children make them behave like adults at such a young age, such rules... can never enter Jia's house!"
He got up and said with a cold face: "Just teach the child like this!"
I still don't believe that the head of the family can't say the same about teaching the children!
Immediately the atmosphere turned cold.
The two children were also silent, and quietly went to find Ah Fu.
Jia Pingan was still angry, and went to the study angrily.
Wei Wushuang left the account book behind, ignored it, and lay down on the bed in a daze.
Su Ho muttered: "Wushuang, my husband is angry."
"Anger is angry!"
Wei Wushuang said coldly: "My husband is stubborn, but the world always disciplines children like this. He is so unconventional. When Dalang and the others go out in the future, will those children of the same age look up to them? Will they associate with them? The child is isolated what to do?"
Su Ho lay down, pillowed her waist, and said melancholy: "This is the first time my husband is angry!"
Jia Ping'an's anger is gradually dissipating.
But…he didn't want to bow his head first.
"I'll have dinner in the study."
"Yes, sir."
Sanhua answered, her voice was so gentle that it made people speechless.
This is... wolfish ambition, wanting to sneak in...
Jia Pingan ate and drank in the study, and then fell asleep.
On the second day, the whole family was silent during breakfast.
Jia Yu and Doudou were heartless and happy, wishing they could start playing quickly.
not talking?
Jia Pingan glanced at the two wives secretly, Wei Wushuang had a cold face, Su Ho looked a little aggrieved.
My husband is spying on us!
The two women raised their heads slightly at the same time.
Is it amazing?
Jia Pingan got up, "Let's go."
This attitude is unprecedented.
Wei Wushuang and Su Ho were dumbfounded.
Is this a turnaround or what does it mean?
Later when the two returned to the backyard, Su Ho was a little flustered, "Wu Shuang, Husband is really angry."
Wei Wushuang said with a cold face, "When you get angry, you get angry. Are we wrong?"
Su Ho shook his head, the two had aspirations to agree on this issue.
"For children!"
Wei Wushuang said lightly.
In this era, a man is the head of the family, and it is common for women to bow their heads. But Wei Wushuang was not prepared to bow his head on this issue.
But today is particularly difficult.
Jia Ping'an arrived at the Ministry of War, and immediately asked for leave to enter the palace.
"You did a good job yesterday. Although Your Majesty didn't say anything, you ate a lot more for dinner."
Wu Mei felt that Adi was becoming more and more promising, "Facing those Shandong celebrities, you can still win the battle, so you can stand on your own. Ren Yaxiang is now the prime minister, if you let him leave the Ministry of War, you..."
"Sister." How old am I!
Jia Pingan said with a headache: "I'm not yet thirty."
Wu Mei said stiffly: "What are you afraid of? Talent is not determined by age. If you have talent, why not become a minister earlier?"
Jia Pingan hurriedly fooled her, and successfully made Sister take back her idea.
"By the way, when His Majesty mentioned the Shandong gentry yesterday, his tone was not friendly." Wu Mei felt that it was necessary to let the younger brother know the emperor's attitude, "He mentioned Lu Chengqing."
I go!
Lu Chengqing is a descendant of Fan Yang's Lu family. As Li Zhi's leader who was introduced into the court to deal with the eldest grandson Wuji's party, he will complete the task. Are you ready to kill the donkey?
Emperors are indeed ruthless creatures with swords drawn. What kind of friendship and credit? When you threaten him and the country, these are all fake and empty, and you can change your face and deal with you with your backhand.
Wu Mei said flatly: "Ping An, do you know the dangers when His Majesty first ascended the throne? At that time, Changsun Wuji and others controlled the government and threatened His Majesty. Your Majesty forbears and pretends to be weak to confuse them.
He wanted to make a move, but he was alone and alone, so he pulled someone here and another person there, and gradually those people became his wings, and once he cut off the arm of the powerful minister, the power was in his hands... The hardships and sufferings of this journey are beyond your control... imagine. "
Isn't this a tinkerer? Lee Ranieri Zhi. Knowing this kind of suffering, Jia Pingan spends every day in various calculations, fearing that if he makes a wrong move, he will fall into the abyss.
Li Zhi has a lot of white hairs on his head, most of which are the product of suffering... When the first emperor was seriously ill, he was anxious, worried that he would not be able to control Datang.
In fact, he really couldn't control Datang, Changsun Wuji and his group became emperor instead of him.
Now the small circle is torn apart, the emperor seems to have won a big victory, but the Shandong gentry took advantage of the vacancy...
When I'm just a display?
Li Zhi probably wants to mobilize the army at this moment, and wipe out the Shandong gentry in one fell swoop.
Jia Pingan then went to the prince.
"Brother." Cao Yingxiong also wanted to learn how to count and assist yesterday, but the crown prince went, so he could only squat here to check in.
"Yesterday, I only heard that my brother is majestic, and the overwhelmed Shandong celebrities can't raise their heads..."
Why should I pressure them?
Jia Ping'an felt that the word was ambiguous.
"Who said that?"
"Your Highness said."
Li Hong coughed dryly, "Uncle was so majestic yesterday."
You will be more prestigious in the future.
Hao Mi silently looked at Jia Pingan, knowing that his current knowledge was not qualified to help his husband, and the only way was to study hard.
"Attend class!"
Jia Pingan sat opposite.
Li Hong raised his hand, "Uncle, I just want to take world class."
Little kid!
"Also!"
Jia Pingan started class.
Zhao Erniang listened from the side.
What is World Class?
It is interesting that the prince is so impatient?
"...The world is very big, and the Tang Dynasty is not small. For example, the north of the Tang Dynasty is dry and rainy, while the south is raining heavily. How to deal with this situation? Currently, the best way is to build ditches, and one more thing to pay attention to … cut down forests with as few trees as possible.”
Li Hong was curious, "Why can't trees and forests be cut down?"
Zhao Erniang was also quite curious about how to answer this question, and stared at Jia Pingan quietly with her eyes.
"Trees and vegetation can hold water sources, rain falls from the sky, dead branches and fallen leaves on the ground can intercept the flow of rainwater, and the land with trees and vegetation has many gaps, and the rainwater soaks down along the gaps, and the water is retained , This is to conserve the water source. If the water source cannot be conserved, the sun will be exposed to the sun for a long time, and the water on the ground will be evaporated, so the land will dry out and the trees will die..."
"Is that so?"
Jia Pingan laughed and said: "The prince has nothing to do, so he can take someone to dig a tree. See if the water is trapped under the tree, making it more humid. Trees and vegetation have many functions. To put it simply, do you know about deserts?"
Everyone nodded, and Zhao Erniang couldn't help nodding along... This class is so interesting and lively, and it makes people suddenly see the light... How is Mr. Wuyang so talented?
"The desert was not a desert at first, and it used to be full of trees, but it gradually turned into a desert. In the north, those grasslands were herded by other races, and cattle and sheep gnawed on the grassland for years. Now it is raining, and the weeds are lost. The rainwater It hit the ground directly. The soil layer in the north is very thin..."
Jia Ping’an went to the grasslands back then, and the soil layer was really thin, and the sand layer was exposed in some places.
"Without trees and weeds to take over the cover, the rain can wash away that layer of soil. Without the soil layer, the weeds cannot grow, and the land becomes sandy land, which cannot hold rainwater. Then it dries more and more, and finally becomes became a desert..."
Li Hong only felt that a door opened before him, allowing him to see a wider world.
"Uncle, I just heard from them that the river turns yellow because the loess along its banks has been washed down. Is this because there are no trees and weeds?"
The Great River is the Yellow River of later generations.
Smart baby!
Jia Ping'an was excited... With such a smart prince, many things can continue to develop.
"This is the main reason. There is another problem. There will be more and more sediment, which will raise the river bed step by step. Finally, the river will spread, and floods will become the norm along the river."
The Yellow River was still clear before the Tang Dynasty, but now it is turbid from time to time.
The Guanzhong region has been cutting down trees for many years. Without the trees, the loess is not stable enough, and the rain and river water wash away to form the Yellow River.
Li Hong pondered.
Jia Pingan pressed his hand, motioning everyone not to disturb his train of thought.
After a long time, Li Hong raised his head, "Then... you can't cut down on both sides of the big river, and anyone who dares to cut down will be severely punished."
Jia Ping'an smiled like an old father, "But if the trees in other places are cut down, when the rain comes, the loess will be rolled up and rushed into the river. This problem must be solved slowly, not overnight."
Guanzhong has been felled on a large scale since the Qin and Han Dynasties, and the ecosystem has been severely damaged. Let alone Datang. In the Song Dynasty, floods became the norm. This can also be said to be harming one's own family.
Li Hong's face was serious.
After class, Li Hong hurriedly took a few servants to the back.
"Where is the prince?"
Li Zhi and Wu Mei are waiting for him to eat.
Shao Peng looked tangled, "Your Majesty, Empress, Your Highness said yes... I'm going to find a tree in the back... I dug it."
Li Zhi and Wu Mei's faces turned dark.
