After receiving the board, Jin Daqian limped back home. As soon as he entered the door, a woman with a sour face ran out of the house, "Master, what's wrong with you?"
Jin Daqian had an angry look on his face: "It's not you, a prodigal bitch, how many times have I told you not to accept money from those businessmen, but you just didn't listen, it's all right now, Your Highness knew about it, and beat me twenty times Board, whoops, my ass!"
When the woman heard this, her face immediately turned pale. Although she was greedy for money, she also took it seriously: "Master, what should I do!"
Jin Daqian was hit by a board that was not heavy, he pretended it on purpose, just to frighten her, "Your Highness said, if there is another time, I will cut off my head!"
These words frightened the woman so that her hands and feet became cold. This family used to be very poor. If Jin Daqian hadn't come to the palace to be a housekeeper, and the monthly salary has increased again and again, their life would not be so comfortable. "Master, I will never I don’t dare anymore, I’ll give you the money right now, and you can return it to the palace!” She started crying.
Seeing his wife like this, Jin Daqian smiled slyly...
After a whole month, under the hard work of Li Yin and 10,000 laborers, the underground pipeline in Chang'an was finally successfully completed. For this reason, Li Shimin specially summoned Li Yin and two subordinates. In order to commend Li Min, Li Shimin rewarded Li Min with 500 bolts of silk, which can be regarded as encouragement.
Although Li Yin resigned, he did not forget the two subordinates he had mixed with, and boasted about their achievements. Li Shimin was very happy at first, and promoted them both to be foreign ministers of the Ministry of Industry.
"Your Highness, Kong Chi will never forget your kindness!"
"Wang Shen too!"
After the early court, Kong Chi and Wang Shen caught up with Li Yin, bowed deeply to Li Yin, Li Yin helped them up, and said: "You will work hard with Lu Shangshu in the future, and I recommend you. It can be regarded as colleagues, and the second is that you are indeed talents, and it is too wronged to be a ninth-rank manager!" Then, Li Yin suddenly whispered: "There are so many ministers watching, don't get too close to me, let's go! Let's go There are many people who hate me in this court! Be careful, they will wear small shoes for you in the future!"
"This..." Kong Chi and Wang Shen smiled bitterly at the same time, this Highness is really different.
The two of them cupped their hands and left. Li Yin had an extra hand on his shoulder. He turned his head and saw that it was Li Ke.
"Third brother's mastiff is really different. There are no mice in my palace for them to catch!" Li Yin said deliberately with a stinky face.
Li Ke didn't realize it at all, and said: "Liu Lang, you don't understand, this mastiff has to be raised from a young age, and only when it grows up can it be loyal to its master!"
"You think I'm too free to find some errands for me? Can I raise so many mastiffs?"
"What's so bad about being idle? I think your third brother can't be idle. By the way, your business is booming now. Can you also let the third brother join the business!" Li Ke said expectantly.
Li Yin said angrily: "Don't you have a cash cow like Tong Nian? Are you short of money?"
"Tong Nian? Hey! Don't you know Liu Lang? Something happened to Tong Nian!" Li Ke sighed.
"A few days ago, a few friends and I were drinking in a restaurant. I saw the shopkeeper chasing a beggar away. I glanced and saw that it was Tong Nian. I was also shocked at the time. How could this Tong Nian be just a month or two away?" It became like this. After I asked him, I realized that in order to maximize the profit of your perfume, Tong Nian spent all his money and borrowed money to buy a batch of perfume and sell it to Persia. It was robbed by a wave of Turkic people on the way!"
"It was taken away by the Turkic people. Didn't the northern Turkic people settle down long ago? Why is there still such chaos there?" Li Yin wondered, he didn't expect Tong Nian to be so unlucky.
Li Ke had a trace of worry in his eyes, "Although the army is gone, the remnants are still there. Some of them have been delusional about rescuing the Great Khan Jieli in an attempt to revive the army. It is said that some of them have already entered Chang'an!"
This is shocking news that has never been heard before, Li Yin said: "Isn't this Xieli the current general of the right guard? Could it be that he still has a different mind now!"
"Who can say for sure, now many people in the court advocate killing Jieli to eliminate future troubles forever, and the emperor is also considering it, but this will have too much impact on the surrendered tribes, fearing that they will have a rift with Datang, and they will be reborn from then on. One more unstable factor." Li Ke said this, and then said: "Why did I tell you this, what do you think of the proposal just now?"
"That!" Li Yin thought of something, and said, "I have a big business next year, and I will pull you to do it together!"
"Next year?" Li Ke was at a loss, "What kind of business must be done next year!"
Li Yin said: "Don't worry, you will definitely make a lot of money by then! Also, that Tong Nian is not a member of your Shu Palace now, right?"
"Why do you say that? Do you want to use him?"
Li Yan nodded: "He is a businessman after all. My Chamber of Commerce is short of a talent who can develop the market. After all, this Tong Nian has worked hard for so many years, so he should have some experience!"
"So that's it, it's up to you!" Li Ke is a politician after all, he doesn't care about useless pawns, and he won't waste time...
bid farewell to Li Ke, Li Min returned to the palace, and asked Jin Daqian to take a few nurses to the places Tong Nian often haunted to search for. Not long after, a man with disheveled hair and ragged clothes was brought back to the palace by Jin Daqian.
"Grassman, see Your Highness!" Tong Nian looked extremely miserable at this time, wearing shabby sackcloth, with a beard all over his face, and his whole body was dirty, just like a beggar.
Speculation is risky, Li Yin sighed secretly, and said: "Get up, I heard what happened to you from the king of Shu, it is indeed very unfortunate!"
The sad thing that was mentioned made Tong Nian feel sad again. When he was down and down, he was most afraid of meeting old people, and the damage caused by that self-esteem would double the pain.
"In the past, you were a guest of the Prince of Shu's Mansion, and I couldn't drag you to the Prince of Liang's Mansion. Now that I don't have such worries, would you like to come to the Prince of Liang's Mansion to work for me?" He immediately said directly.
"The little one is penniless now, so what else can he do for His Highness?" Tong Nian said sadly.
Li Yin walked to Tong Nian's side, "Money? Doesn't Liang Wangfu have as much money as you? I am different from my third brother. He uses your money, but I use your talents. Now the business of the Wangfu Every day is better than every day, but there is no one who can really take the helm. I have been looking for someone, but I have never found a suitable candidate. I don’t know if you are willing to pick this list!"
"Your Highness...you asked me to..." Tong Nian couldn't believe his ears, he was stuttering and unable to speak.
