Chapter 276: Start a business with Li 2! ! !
The Iron Donkey walked through the bustling East Market.
It attracted curious looks from passers-by.
Li Er looked at the streets of Chang'an City and sighed in his heart.
It was only the seventh year of Zhenguan, and the speed of development of the Tang Dynasty had already surprised him, the emperor.
however.
He knew that this was not enough.
He wanted every citizen of the Tang Dynasty to be well fed and clothed warmly.
This is his long-cherished wish as an emperor!
Not long after.
The iron donkey stopped at the door of Zhuang Zhou's mansion.
Li Er got out of the car and was filled with emotion:
"Brother, your iron donkey is really convenient and fast, much better than my horse."
Zhuang Zhou got off the motorcycle and responded:
"Brother Qin, this iron donkey is much easier than riding a horse.
Not only can it run fast, it is also labor-saving and convenient.
It just takes more practice to drive. "
Li Er fully agrees, even if he is as skilled in riding a horse as he is.
I also knew in my heart that I was afraid that I would not be able to control this iron donkey.
"Brother, after feeling this iron donkey today, I am even more curious about the immortal master you mentioned.
I don’t know when I will be lucky enough to see you? "
After all, I still have some doubts about Zhuang Zhou's life experience.
Zhuang Zhou smiled slightly and said:
"Brother Qin, the fate of an immortal master can only be met but cannot be sought.
If you have an opportunity in the future, you may wish to visit again. "
Li Er nodded in agreement, a trace of expectation flashing in his eyes.
"Brother Qin, let's go! Let's talk after we enter the house."
"it is good!"
Li Er raised his head and glanced at the plaque with his own inscription on the door.
I have to say, this character is really beautifully written.
At this moment.
A little head poked out, it was Xiao Wu Zhao (zhào).
Seeing it was Zhuang Zhou, he ran out after him.
Cheered and said:
"Brother, are you back?"
Zhuang Zhou hummed, then Li Er beside him frowned and asked:
"Brother, who is this little sister?"
Zhuang Zhou said:
"Her name is Wu Zhao, and she is a miserable child."
Following Zhuang Zhou, he told Wu Zhao's life experience and what happened to her and her mother Yang.
Finally he said:
"Who would have thought that just after Duke Ying died, two brothers, Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang, would take over all the property.
They also drove the mother and daughter out of the mansion.
I just happened to run into them. Seeing that the mother and daughter had nowhere to go, I took them into my house. "
Li Er nodded, but his eyes were full of murderous intent.
Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang are inferior to pigs and dogs.
To be able to do such a thing.
You must know that Ying Guogong’s warrior Yu (yuē) was a contribution to the establishment of the Tang Dynasty.
He was even a good friend with the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan.
After Li Yuan ascended the throne, he was named the founding Duke of Yiyuan County.
He was then listed as one of the seventeen "Heroes of Taiyuan Yuanmou", and he was exempted from death once if he was guilty.
This is simply a huge honor.
In the third year of Wude, Li Yuan promoted the warrior Xun to the position of minister of the Ministry of Industry and granted him the title of Duke.
In the ninth year of Wude, after the Xuanwumen incident.
Li Er summoned the warrior Xun to return to the court, gave him great rewards and treated him with great courtesy, and appointed him as the governor of Yuzhou.
Later he became the governor of Lizhou and the governor of Jingzhou.
Enough to be visible.
The status of warrior Xun in Li Er's heart.
So when he learned about the death of the warrior Yuē, Li Er was heartbroken.
He personally decreed that he would be buried with state rites and given a posthumous gift to the Minister of Rites, with the posthumous title of "Ding".
But now something like this happened.
He had made a note of this account in his mind.
Wu Yuanqing, Wu Yuanshuang, you two brothers wait for me!
……
Zhuang Zhou led Li Er to the backyard.
After arranging Li Er to sit down, Mr. Yang saw the ceremony and made tea.
Seeing that Hongyu was not there, Zhuang Zhou asked:
"Where did Ruby go?"
Yang replied:
"I went to the grocery store early in the morning to stock up."
Zhuang Zhou said oh and said nothing more.
"Brother Qin, you drink tea first, and I'll cook. I'll be ready soon."
When Yang heard this, he immediately said:
"Sir, this is a woman's business, why bother you to cook it yourself."
"What's this!"
Zhuang Zhou said disapprovingly:
"The gentleman's way of being a chef is of no use to me."
With a greeting, Zhuang Zhou went directly into the kitchen.
After taking a look, there was nothing that came quickly.
How about going back to modern times and making some dishes?
After half an hour.
Seventeen or eight dishes were placed on the table.
Stir-fried mutton with green onions, Kung Pao chicken, Mapo tofu...
They are all common modern dishes.
But in this era, it is extremely rare.
Good guy!
How can you make so many dishes in this short period of time?
"Brother Xian, did you do all this?"
"Ah! Come and have a taste."
Li Er pursed his lips, his face full of shock.
He even thought that Zhuang Zhou was a magician.
Zhuang Zhou got another bottle of Tangchun, that is, Maotai.
After it was full, the two of them took half cups and started drinking.
hiss!
This wine is still awesome!
After three drinks.
Li Er also became drunk and said to Zhuang Zhou:
"Dear brother... I have read countless people... but I have never seen through you...
I really admire you..."
Zhuang Zhou was in good condition this time and replied humbly:
"Brother Qin, I am a merchant. I was fortunate enough to be valued by the emperor and granted the title of county baron.
But I always know my position, and I have nothing for you to admire. "
"No...no!"
Li Er waved his hand and retorted:
"I know... you... you are definitely not human...
Just talking about the dishes on this table...even the current emperor has never tasted many of them. "
This is true.
Li Er went on to say:
"Brother Xian...you have such great ability...you shouldn't just be a businessman!"
Zhuang Zhou said:
"Brother Qin, do you have any good suggestions?"
Li Er smiled and said:
"Why don't we form a partnership?"
Zhuang Zhou thought for a while.
The man in front of me is now an official in the court.
Being able to face the emperor directly, the official position is not bad.
If you want to implement your own transformation plan in Datang.
Presumably this brother Qin can still protect him.
This is a good opportunity.
"Okay!"
Zhuang Zhou immediately agreed and said:
"To be honest, Brother Qin, I really want to partner with you!
I have many plans in mind, all of which can help Datang develop. "
Li Er suddenly became interested.
This is exactly what he wants to know and pursue!
"Brother, tell me, you have those plans."
Zhuang Zhou has already discussed the Tang transformation plan with Ural.
In the end, the two most fundamental points were established.
That is to develop agricultural production and strengthen military defense.
Agriculture is the foundation of the country, and this will be the same in future generations.
Then military defense is to ensure the stability and prosperity of the country.
As for industrial plans.
Based on productivity considerations, I dare not think of anything too big.
In the short term, it is nothing more than infrastructure considerations such as cement mortar fired bricks.
Things like railways and rail transit cannot be built for the time being.
Then there is the solar generator that Zhuang Zhou attaches most importance to.
This thing is what I want to achieve most at the moment.
Let’s not talk about the entire Tang Dynasty.
Let Kyoto Changan take the lead in entering the era of electric energy.
What a wonderful thing this would be! ! !
