"Sixth Prince, it's like this. Regarding the saltpeter mine, can you give me some more time? I'm almost done with it."
It's summer now. If it drags on any longer, do you still want to do business?
Once summer is over, ice is of no use.
This Kong Yingda is really slow in doing things.
"Bastard! How long did it take you to do such a small thing? It's a shame that you are still a prince, grand master, and a descendant of Confucius, but your ability is so poor. If I were here, I could finish it in less than a day!"
Li Min has never been so angry before, this time he is really angry.
Everyone around was shocked, thinking something had happened.
Kong Yingda:……
"This...this is not what I want. I also want to finish it quickly! But sometimes things are not as simple as imagined!"
Now it is no longer a question of selling poetry, but a question of ability.
Even if there is no poem, Kong Yingda must complete it, otherwise it will be looked down upon.
Why can Cheng Yaojin be so fast but he can't? This is a question of ability.
"What's the problem? You should tell me about it!"
Li Min asked.
"Hey, those people in the Ministry of Revenue are really a headache. One thing has been done for a long time and it hasn't been done yet. It's not like asking them for money. They are charging money to the Tang Dynasty treasury. These people really should be involved.
Book."
Regarding the saltpeter mine, it’s still a bit minor. It’s just a saltpeter mine. How much is it worth?
Those guys in the household department have their own affairs and are very busy every day.
In addition, Kong Yingda's relationship with others seems to be not good.
People respect him just because he is the prince and master.
And it is rumored that the prince's relationship with him is not very good.
Therefore, he always encounters obstacles when doing things.
"If you didn't do it well, you didn't do it well. Don't look for faults in others."
Li Min doesn't care about that much.
Kong Yingda was a little embarrassed when he said this, but he was speechless and had no possibility of refutation.
"So, I'm here to ask you for a few more days of mercy!"
How many more days will it take? It’s already been so long, how many more days will it take?!
"It has to be done today!"
Li Min gave the order to die.
Must finish it today!
"Ah...this is impossible!"
Impossible? You have to find a way! There are always more ways than problems!
"They can delay you these days, or they can delay you longer. Don't hope they will speed up. It must be completed today!"
"But this is also my limit."
"No! This is not your limit."
Kong Yingda was speechless.
But I still asked one more thing:
"Is there anything the Sixth Prince can do?"
He had no choice but to lower his face and ask.
"Yes! How many key people are there in the household department?"
"Together, there must be five people!"
Kong Yingda didn't understand why Li Min would ask this.
What do you want to ask a few people for?
"You want to take action?"
"Hmph! How can I take action? People just ignore me. How can I tell others?"
"That's true, is that...?"
"Wait a minute! Xue Rengui!"
"exist!"
"Go prepare five small bottles and fill them with worry-free wine!"
"yes!"
Xue Rengui went down.
Kong Yingda was so surprised that his jaw almost dropped.
"This wine is the royal wine. You can't buy it if you have money. What do you do with it, Sixth Prince?"
Kong Yingda couldn't figure out why he brought out this wine.
He did not attend the morning court that day, and Cheng Yaojin did not say who did it.
What did he want to do? He also asked how many people were in charge of the household department.
Do you want to give this wine to them?
If this is the case, it would be a huge loss of money.
But you can't keep putting things off forever.
Don't wait for Kong Yingda to say anything else.
Xue Rengui has already walked over with five small bottles.
"Sixth Prince, this is a washed bottle. It contains Wangyou wine."
The bottle is not big, probably equivalent to a modern Jiang Xiaobai small bottle of wine.
"Okay, leave it."
Then, Li Min said to Kong Yingda: "Master Kong, these five bottles of wine will help you to open up the relationship between your superiors and subordinates. It must be completed this time. Otherwise, it will be meaningless for me to obtain the saltpeter ore."
"Is this really okay?"
"They have the wine that only His Majesty can drink. Do they have any reason to refuse you?"
Li Min said very seriously.
"There seems to be no reason for this. The Sixth Prince is indeed admirable."
Kong Yingda said that this was his inner thought.
"Okay, no more talking nonsense, just take this wine and go, I'll wait for you here!"
"Yes!, then I will resign!"
After that, Kong Yingda left.
Xue Rengui asked: "Sixth Prince, can these wines really solve the problem?"
"Don't worry, the problem will be solved by going here. I guess he will be back in less than two hours!
Regarding the saltpeter mine matter, Kong Yingda has been dealing with it for so long, but he has not found a way. Now that we have Wangyoujiu, we can solve it quickly."
"If that's the case, that would be great."
From the time Xue Rengui met Li Min until now, there is nothing that Li Min said that has not come true.
"Okay, you go and do your work, I'll take a rest."
as expected.
Until the afternoon, Kong Yingda arrived at the door of Shengtang Group with a piece of official document.
The man hadn't arrived yet, but the voice had already arrived.
I could only hear him shouting loudly: "Mr. Zili, good thing, good thing! Your method is really useful! I got it."
His tone was full of excitement, and in a moment, he entered the hall.
He even started dancing.
Facing this old naughty boy, Li Min shook his head.
He really looks like an old kid.
When Kong Yingda saw that there was no one around, he held an official document in his hand and said: "Sixth Prince! Your method is really useful.
It took me less than half an hour to get everything ready. Now I have brought people over to take your 5,000 taels away. This official document is yours!
The mining rights of the saltpetre mine also belong to the Shengtang Group!
I also asked someone to write four words on it, Shengtang Group. From now on, you are unique, the owner of the mine, until today next year."
Kong Yingda kept talking like a machine gun.
I guessed it was two hours, but I still looked down on people like the Ministry of Finance.
"Very good, Zhu Shan is going to pay five thousand taels!"
Zhu Shan responded, so he went inside and took the people to get five thousand taels.
I took the five thousand taels as soon as I asked without blinking an eye.
Kong Yingda still admired him in his heart.
"Hmph, a drink can solve the problem. It seems that Datang is ill."
Li Min joked.
When Kong Yingda heard this, he immediately became anxious.
He immediately covered Li Min's mouth and said: "Sixth Prince, don't say this nonsense, be careful that walls have ears!"
"What are you afraid of? That's how it is!"
Li Min took his hand away but didn't care.
Kong Yingda could only sigh.
Although he also knew that Datang was ill.
Just running the account department took him a lot of time.
Little did he know that these words would actually reach the East Palace.
