In Luoyang City, Ji Fei Gou jumped all night. Almost the whole city was
hunting for monsters. In the end, five of them were hacked to death. However,
the ones who died were all little monsters. The big monsters such as the white
snake did not show up at all. Other things are still dormant in the city.
"His grandma! Tossing for a night without closing his eyes, still has to go to
the court..."
The civil and military officials came to the outside of the imperial city one
after another. A night rain made the weather so cool. People with weak bodies
put on a leather jacket, normal people put on jackets, and some people brought
them from home. Come for breakfast, and if you don’t bring it, you can buy it
and eat it nearby.
"Good morning, sirs, come over and have two bites if you haven't eaten it,
it's oily and spicy..."
Ad
Zhao Guanren, dressed in court clothes, came riding a horse. Not only was
there a carriage behind him, there were also servants pushing two steaming
dining carts. The servants quickly unloaded the folding tables and chairs from
the carriage and were directly on the square outside the palace gate. Set up a
stall.
"Oh~ you are here just right, let me get a bowl of dough for this king..."
Wang Yujiang ran and sat down, only to hear a "chuck" from the dining car, a
big smell of spicy oil filled everywhere, many officials sneezed several
times, but they were surprised: "What kind of spicy is this? Why is it so
choking?"
"Chaotian pepper! Much more delicious than cornel..."
Zhao Guanren sat down and took out cigarettes to distribute. Datang people
like spicy peppers and sashimi, and they dare to cut them into slices.
However, Chaotian peppers have been imported for a short time and have not
been popular among the people. Moreover, off-season vegetables are basically
seen. Not green.
"Hey? Lord Yin, where did you get the eggplant, cucumber and lentils..."
Prince Qin touched a cucumber and took a bite. Everyone found out that there
was a car of fresh vegetables. Zhao Guanren smiled with a cigarette in his
mouth: "Of course it was planted by the Demon Division of our town. If you
like it, take more. A crop of fresh vegetables!"
"Hey~ this spicy, so ** fun, cool! So cool..."
A military commander raised his head and shouted, his face flushed with
hotness. A hundred officials of civil and military officials gathered after
hearing the words, and eating chili on a cold day would get rid of the cold,
and another bite of crunchy cucumber and roasted garlic. Eggplant, almost
overturned a group of people.
"Brothers from the Shenwu Army, all come over to take two bites to warm up..."
Zhao Guanren stood up angrily and greeted him. The forbidden army guarding the
gate had long been drooling. Hearing this, he immediately ran over and lined
up by the dining car looking forward to it, and Zhao Guanren offered his
killer again. Tremella bird's nest soup in a glass bowl.
"Huh? This carved glass bowl is so transparent, it's not cheap..."
"Huh~"
Before the words of a Shangshu were over, King Yujiang was scalded to smash a
bowl. Everyone immediately felt distressed and regretful. Liuli was an
incidental product of copper smelting, no matter which dynasty was considered
a luxury, not to mention it was rare. Frosted glass bowl.
"Uh~ I'm sorry! My hand slipped, how much money, I will pay you..."
King Yujiang rubbed his hands in embarrassment. How did Zhao Guanren pick up
another set, all of which were inferior products of nine yuan and nine free
shipping. He put it on the table and laughed: "Six bowls and six dishes, you
will give a cost price. , Twenty taels of silver will do, and the rest will be
yours!"
"No! The king sincerely compensates, you can say a real price..."
Wang Yujiang and others didn’t believe that it was so cheap at all.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Guanren took out two more sets, and a few colorful glasses,
and said: “Currently the output is small, and the price is indeed a bit high.
I will be able to make 500 sets a day. , The cost will definitely be halved
again!"
"500 sets a day? Only ten taels..."
The crowd opened their mouths in horror, and they picked up the glass products
to look through and beat them. Although the workmanship was not as exquisite,
the key was that the materials were rare and cheap, but the actual cost was
less than a couple of silver.
"Haha~"
King Yujiang suddenly reacted and got up and smiled and cursed: "Oh, Lord Yin,
no wonder you dared to promise to make a profit. It turns out that you have
secretly hidden such a big golden mountain. These colored glass bowls are
acting as an agent. No one should follow this. Wang grabbed it!"
"I don't count these words, the emperor said who is who, please hurry up and
eat..."
Zhao Guanren sat down and ate the soup with a smile. Everyone was holding
glass bowls in a novel way, but no one came in when it was time to open the
palace gate. They all gathered around the dining car, even the eunuchs and
internal guards in the palace ran out. Look fresh.
"Manager Wei!"
Zhao Guanren suddenly discovered that Chen Guangda had come out. He picked up
a set of the most shrewd glassware and handed it over and said politely:
"Excuse me, Mr. Wei, please present it to the emperor. This is a new product
made by the government. Twenty-two sets. Let's start working now!"
"Master Yin! You can't talk nonsense, our family is not the chief eunuch..."
Chen Guangda got to know the results of the tune, Zhao Guanren deliberately
wondered: "Isn't it? Then why did I hear that Mr. An wants... Forget it! There
are talented people coming out from generation to generation. When Mr. An is
gone, you must pick it up. His class!"
"Ha~ Don't listen to rumors, Mr. An is very healthy..."
Chen Guangda waved his hand proudly and asked the guards to carry away two
baskets of vegetables, and walked away with the officials. However, the
officials began to discuss one after another, seeing that Chen Guangda’s eyes
were different. Frozen was pinching a point before queuing into the palace.
"Your Majesty has a purpose! Xuanbaiguan met..."
Chen Guangda stood in front of the main hall and yelled. All the civil and
military officials were stunned. Some people hurriedly followed the * and
asked: "How can the * be declared today? Why didn't you see Chief An?"
"I'm sick!"
A little ** deliberately said loudly, "Isn’t it a mess on all sides last
night? Mr. Ann wore a single coat and went up to the building to watch. , I
don't know yet... alas~"
"That's it! Master Yin is still well informed, but Manager Wei is very young
and powerful..."
The princes and ministers finally realized that they took turns up the steps
to pay tribute to Chen Guangda, but this was really not Chen Guangda’s
poisonous hand. The eunuchs of Anda were always cautious and could not find a
chance to poison them. As a result, they let a heavy rain. Down.
"Long live my emperor, long live..."
The civil and military officials walked into the hall and knelt collectively.
Zhao Guanren is now a fourth-rank official, kneeling in the position behind
the civil servant, but he has already practiced a set of slick skills,
supporting the ground with his hands and knees in his robe. Don't touch the
ground at all.
"Flat body! If something happens, retreat if nothing happens..."
Chen Guangda stood under the high platform with a shrill voice. No one could
see that he was a fake eunuch, and the old emperor didn’t slept for long. He
actually sat on the dragon chair and yawned. Fortunately, the officials
reported the demon killing. It's no longer a boring political affair.
"Father! The national teacher was almost killed last night, which shows my
ignorance towards the mage..."
Wang Yujiang went forward and said: "Fortunately, Shi Lang Yin turned the tide
last night. This saved him from a terrible disaster. It is true that he was in
charge of the official construction and management. According to Erchen's
opinion, the Swordsman had to let him be in charge. The official production is
second!"
"Things openly murdered my master of the country, I really want to give them
some color..."
The old emperor patted the dragon chair and said, "From now on, Qianniuwei
will be merged into the town demon division to serve as the demon slayer, and
then the major monasteries will select and send the elite mage to serve as the
demon master. The two complement each other and protect me together. Datang,
what do all Aiqing think?"
'Um? ’
Zhao Guanren was taken aback for a moment, and quickly calculated the pros and
cons, but someone immediately said: "The emperor! The town devil should not
only protect my gods, but should go to other state capitals. Otherwise, the
state capitals will not have the ability to protect themselves, and they will
definitely become a breeding ground for evil. Soil!"
"Yeah! That's true..."
The old emperor nodded and said: "Shi Lang Yin! You can do more, and you can't
slack off the official construction and management. You are also in charge of
the Town Demon Division. I will send you a few smart people as assistants. The
articles of association provide the number of personnel required by each state
and the overall planning one by one!"
"Chen Zunzhi!"
Zhao Guanren went out to salute neither humble nor arrogant, but the old
emperor said again: "The Yutong five-color glazed glass bowl that you just
presented, I have already seen it, but such a treasure is so cheap. I think it
is inappropriate. Have you tasted it?"
"The emperor! It's really too cheap..."
A prince jumped out immediately and said loudly: "Liu Li is my unique skill in
the Tang Dynasty, and so many small countries covet it. Although low capital
is a good thing, it is a good thing to sell at a low price. Five thousand
taels!"
"Cough cough cough..."
The old emperor almost squirted out the tea as soon as he took a sip. Chen
Guangdalian hurried up to give him a handkerchief. The old emperor wiped his
mouth and raised his head, giving him an angry look.
"Father! It's too expensive for ordinary people to buy. If you can't sell it,
you have to post money. The court loses..."
King Yujiang said loudly: "Selling at a low price is a waste of treasures. It
is better to openly solicit investment from the private sector. Merchants will
seek profit. They will definitely give the most reasonable price, and they
will invest in expanding the scale, dumping overseas, earning gold and silver,
and strengthening me. Tang Shengwei, you don't need to pay a penny from the
court!"
"Um?"
The old emperor was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, he praised:
"Yes! Wonderful! It seems that my son has not been diligent in learning and
training recently, and has made great progress. You are also sharing the
worries for Yin Shilang, and you are responsible for the investment promotion.
Recruit everything made by the government!"
"Children take the order!"
King Yujiang bowed and saluted excitedly. Several other princes looked at Zhao
Guanren one after another. He must have come up with this idea, otherwise King
Yujiang wouldn't even know what "dumping" meant.
"King Ning! King Yan! Step forward to listen to the decree..."
The old emperor followed up and said: "Tubo is linked with the anti-thief and
chased my Tianzhu Road, and the heart of rebellion has been revealed. I have
ordered you to lead your soldiers and horses to Nanzhao and Jiannan
Supervisors respectively to assist Longyou Dao in attacking Tubo. If the
Nanzhao Jidu Envoy has changed, you two can cut first and then play!"
"Children take orders!"
The two princes stepped forward and knelt in excitement. This was a great
achievement for nothing, and it also had the advantage of taking the
opportunity to win over the local generals.
"Shi Lang Yin! Du Wei Zhang! You two come here the same..."
The old emperor suddenly beckoned, Zhao Guanren and Xia Bu'er looked at each
other, and walked out to stand together with some doubts.
"You two were originally from the same sect, and now you are both serving for
the court. The little conflicts should be put aside..."
The old emperor smiled and said: "I want to announce two great happy events.
One is that I want to betroth Princess Changle to Zhang Wuji. From now on, he
will be Zhang's horse of my dynasty. He will give a mansion to the horse
mansion and live with Princess Changle. Inside Luoyang City!"
"Thank your majesty for the grace, my son-in-law is so grateful..."
"Don't be eager to be happy, you are not as sophisticated as your brother, I
have to sharpen you..."
The old emperor said loudly: "Zhang Yuma! I ordered you to lead three thousand
iron horses to go to the Anxi Protectorate to announce my will, and assist
Zhao Jiedu to go to Tubo to suppress the rebellion, that is, the sunrise! When
you return triumphantly, I and the princess I will personally pick up the dust
for you!"
"The minister will follow the decree! Without restraint, he will live up to
the holy grace..."
Xia Buer knelt on one knee pretending to be excited, the old emperor nodded
and looked at Zhao Guanren. Zhao Guanren knew that he was going to serve the
big dishes, no matter how capable he was and how hard-working and loyal he
was, the old emperor and the Luo Zhimen behind him It won't make him feel
better.
"Shi Lang Yin! Last night you turned the tide and killed all the demons, and
the people all over the city praised..."
The old emperor smiled and said: "I want to reward you well, and I will
immediately promote you to the town demon's demon envoy, the third rank, and
give you the surname Li, the town's official name, and the town's 3,000
households!"
Zhao Guanren secretly said in surprise: ‘Oh! The last name has been changed to
Lao Tzu. ’
"The Shangqing Temple will be changed to your dojo, and you will be able to
receive the incense of believers from all over the world, and you will be
given an imperial soul tower on the ancient town..."
"Upper Ancient Town Soul Tower? Where is it..."
Zhao Guanren raised his head abruptly. Chen Guangda and Xia Buer were also
instinctively shocked. They suppressed their emotions and did not show any
abnormality. For a long time, the old emperor actually had a tower for the
soul-suppression in his hands, but there was still one person at the scene.
Suddenly raised his head and hung down quickly...
