"I guess your uncle!"
Li Jinglong was pretending to be pretentious when suddenly his neck tightened.
An iron hand pinched it like a pair of pliers. Mr. Guo was furious and cursed, "Your grandfather and your father are all honest and honest men. How come you are talking like a girl in your life?
It’s completely untrue. Tell me now, or I will strangle you to death!”
"Fourth uncle, you!"
The old Marquis not only grabbed Li Jinglong's neck, but also shook Li Jinglong's head up and down with his iron hand.
"I..." Li Jinglong was choked so hard that he could hardly breathe, and said loudly, "His Royal Highness said that the land could not be replenished, but it gave the Li family a way to make money. He promised me the Li family,
Lelang County has the exclusive right to sell salt for three years!"
For a moment, there was silence in the room.
Mr. Guo Laohou let go of his hand and sat on the stool in a daze, without saying a word.
"You old man has such strong hands!"
Li Jinglong cursed in his heart, rubbed his neck and said, "His Highness said, how much future can Tianzhuangzi have? It will also lead to infamy! Simply, give the Li family a way to make money, and don't talk about it in a few years. The prosperity and wealth of several generations will be
, absolutely no problem!”
The nobles looked at each other with wild eyes.

Apart from land, these people have no access to gold, silver, yellow and white things.
They know better than anyone else what salt is, and they know better what it can get in exchange for it.
"His Highness said, if you hand over your fields, the court cannot treat you badly!" The looks of everyone fell into Li Jinglong's eyes. He smiled proudly and continued to clasp his fingers and said, "Think about it, over there in Korea, there is salt, iron, sugar and tea.
Cloth, timber, mines and fur...and although the place was poorer, it had the salt farm, horse farm, and fields left by the Li family of Goryeo..."
He was getting into the middle of his conversation when he suddenly felt another tightness on his neck.
Another pair of iron hands gripped him so hard that he could hardly breathe.
Wuding Marquis Guo Ying grabbed Li Jinglong's neck with both hands, shook it back and forth, and sprayed Li Jinglong's face with saliva, "You said, Your Highness promised your family to sell salt? How many years did you promise?"
"Three...three years!" Li Jinglong said with difficulty.
Guo Ying continued to shake Li Jinglong's head, "A county with tens of thousands of households can only eat your Li family's salt?"
"Ahem! Ahem! Yes, that's right!"
"Your two thousand hectares of farmland is actually given a three-year salt monopoly?" Mr. Guo Laohou continued to shake.
Li Jinglong's head was floating back and forth like leaves in the wind.
"Fourth!" Song Guogong Feng Sheng shouted, pulled Guo Ying away, frowned and said, "You are so old and have no sense of propriety. What should I do if I get pinched?"
Mr. Guo Laohou sat there with a look of disbelief on his face, "Tens of thousands of households? Three years of salt! That's salt! Brother Feng, you don't know. When we were in Chuzhou, those who were hungry were about to eat people. Yes.
Your Majesty found someone to sell five hundred kilograms of salt in exchange for life-saving food for our tens of thousands of troops!"
"Fourth brother, be more careful!" Feng Shengyou frowned and said, turning to face Li Jinglong with a smile, "Don't think of this old man with ordinary knowledge, he is a fool!" He continued to say affectionately, "Your Highness, I really promise
I’ll give you a home!”
"How dare I lie about this!" Li Jinglong rubbed his neck and started coughing.
"Come, let's talk to Uncle Feng. What else did His Highness say?" Feng Sheng said with a smile, then turned to the side and scolded, "Tsk, what are you doing standing there, look at how scared this kid is! You old fools
Yes, what are you trying to do with the baby? Come on, bring me some tea, I’ve been talking for a long time and my mouth is dry!”
Everyone came to their senses, but there was only strong wine on the table, and there was no hot tea.
At this time, the waiter's voice came from outside the private room, "Masters, here are your dishes, the turtle soup is here!"
"That's it!" Wang Bi rubbed his big hands, opened the door, held a bowl of steaming soup, and placed it in front of Li Jinglong, "Drink, Wang's soup, a great supplement!"
Li Jinglong looked at Wang Tang, and then at the old killers in front of him who stretched their necks, waiting for him to speak.
Pushing the soup to the side, "Junior has said what needs to be said. Your Highness has said that I will not treat you unfairly. Korean salt, sugar, cloth, cotton, iron, these things can be sold exclusively to you. There are also forests and mines.
, fur goods, ownerless fields, etc., can be used as compensation for your land!"
"Really?" someone exclaimed.
"When has His Highness ever told a lie?" Li Jinglong asked.
"This is a great favor!" Mr. Guo Laohou said, "Not to mention several generations, even dozens of lifetimes, it will not be used up! This is an exclusive sale, just like...
....."
"It's like we are the only gentlemen in the world. Whoever we want to be our wife will be our wife!" Cao Zhen, the Marquis of Jingchuan, slapped his thigh with a ferocious look on his face, "We can do whatever we want! Beautiful!"
"Yes, Brother Cao is right!"
"The Li family has more than 2,000 hectares, and they are so wealthy. My family has 5,000 hectares!"
"Isn't it just land? Your Highness cares about the people, and we, as ministers, should be distinguished!"
"How much can be gained from that little land? It's just food all year round, not gold or silver!"
"Isn't that right? Food will go bad after a few years. Gold and silver are still money after being stored for a thousand years!"
In the room, the old killers were talking to each other, and they were discussing in a whirlwind manner, and everyone's eyes were filled with stars.
"No wonder your kid took the initiative to hand over the property! The emotional roots are here!"
Just as Li Jinglong regained consciousness, a big hand was placed on his neck again, "Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?"
The latter gave a wry smile and said, "How can you say that you shouted to me to kill me when you saw me? In fact, His Highness has told me a long time ago, and asked me to talk to you in private about these things after the meeting. But you...
..."
Before he could finish his words, Jingchuan Hou Cao Zhen patted his shoulder with his big hand, "Shouting and killing? What's the big deal? You are an old child like us who have seen you grow up since you were a child. You, this child, have been around since you were a child.
Benevolence and righteousness are rare to everyone who sees them, so how can they beat you?"
While everyone was talking happily, Song Guogong stood up and walked out.
"Brother Feng, where are you going?" Guo Ying said, "Is there going to be a game at home later? How many tricks are you going to do?"
"When is it time? There is still such leisurely intention. His Highness is thinking about us. We can't be ungrateful!" Feng Sheng said loudly, "Hurry, let's go. Go home and discuss with the master at home to see how to give His Highness a discount.
!”
"Yes! This is the real thing!" Everyone suddenly woke up and walked out while talking nonchalantly.
They are all talking about how to do business in the future!
Why, I have old subordinates in Liaodong who told me that if the leather goods from Liaodong reach the capital, the profit will be tripled if I turn back.
There is no good wood in the south. The wood in the deep mountains and old forests of Liaodong can definitely be sold at a high price whether it is used for furniture or coffins.
Some people also say that selling sugar is more profitable than salt. Sugar cane is grown in Guangdong and Guangxi. Send a letter to the old subordinates over there and call a few sugar merchants to come over.
When it comes to sugar, everyone's eyes light up.
"I heard that there is a place called Ryukyu that produces the best sugar!"
"What ball? No matter what ball it is, talk to His Highness later and send troops directly to capture it!"
"No way, Ryukyu is our vassal state of the Ming Dynasty!"
"Grandma! When Goryeo was still a vassal state, we were beaten the same way!"
Lao Shacai's voice gradually faded away, and everyone got into the car downstairs and rode away quickly.
"Hey, why are you all gone?"
In the blink of an eye, Li Jinglong was the only one left in the room.
"Damn it!" He rubbed his neck and said angrily in his heart, "The old man is also a prince after all. You talented assassins can pinch you as much as you want, and shoot as much as you want!"
After thinking for a moment, his anger continued, "I can't offend you. In the future, all your children and grandchildren who work under me will be sent to the border guards!"
Then, he stood up, shook his head, and went downstairs with the riding whip.
The shopkeeper of Hongbin Tower was muttering, why did these marquises come so aggressively and then leave so quickly?
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Li Jinglong coming down from upstairs and hurried up to greet him.
"Mr. Cao Guo, are you leaving? Are you having a good meal? If the shop is not thoughtful in any way, please raise your hands and don't act like us businessmen!"
Li Jinglong didn't even bother to touch him, "Yeah!" Suddenly, he remembered that a group of old assassins threw plates at him on the second floor today. He turned around and warned, "If anything about today's matter spreads out, you
There’s no need to open the sale!”
"What's the matter? You guys are blind today and can't see anything. You're deaf and can't hear anything!" the shopkeeper said with a smile.
"Yeah!" Li Jinglong nodded again, turned around and went out.
"Hey, sir!" the shopkeeper hurriedly followed.
"So what?" Li Jinglong said angrily.
The shopkeeper's heart skipped a beat, and he smiled carefully and said, "Well, the account, you still..."
"What kind of bill?" Li Jinglong thought about it, looked back at the second floor, and said angrily, "I came later, why should I pay the bill?"
"What you always said is your fault today!" The shopkeeper's voice became softer and softer.
"Did I say that?" Li Jinglong thought carefully.
What a damn unlucky thing. I had people pinch my neck and shake my head for no reason, and then I had to pay for it to those old killers!
"I can't do without you!" Li Jinglong said angrily, "Go back and take the bill and go to my house to find the butler!" After saying that, he got on his horse.
"Go slowly!" The shopkeeper bowed at the door to say goodbye.
When Li Jinglong walked away, the second cabinet from Hongbin Building came over immediately.
"Shopkeeper, how do you calculate this account? Many dishes haven't been served yet!"
"Stupid!" The shopkeeper straightened up and glanced at Counter Bai, "You still charge money even if the dishes are not served! Those dishes are rewarded to the guys!"
"Hey! Come on, I'll take care of the bill!" The second counter nodded.
"Wait a minute!" the shopkeeper stopped him, "No matter how much money they spend today, you can triple it!"
The second counter trembled, "The shopkeeper, that's the Duke of the country!"
"How can you say that I am the shopkeeper?" The shopkeeper whispered, "Those people are all bosses. They spend money without counting and scatter money without any boundaries! How do they know how much a meal costs? What is a wealthy family?
If you're a big business owner, let's take the order to their housekeeper. If the housekeeper doesn't even look at it, he'll pay us!"
Er Ke thought about it and gave a thumbs up, "High, really high!"
