Chapter 685: Make up for the leader of the Chirantian Alliance! Lao Li, let me introduce you to a big business!
On the day the thatched cottage was repaired, Wang Zi'an moved in with Su Su who couldn't wait.
During this period, some people came to play. They heard the commotion here and wanted to come over and watch the fun, but they were persuaded to leave by the guards staying outside. Wang Zi'an didn't mind people coming to his farm to enjoy the scenery, but he also
He doesn't want anyone to disturb his life.
And he also used his spare time in the past few days to sketch and draw a simple diagram of the effect of the reconstruction of the south of the city.
However, perhaps because he lived in this peach forest, he deliberately decorated a few colorful fallen peach blossoms outside those poetic courtyards with green bricks and green tiles.
It seems that the whole picture is full of a different kind of beauty and romance.
"Husband, where did you draw this..."
Su Su fell in love with the dreamlike little courtyard in the picture in front of her at just one glance.
The love in the eyes of Cheng Ying'er and Chang Le was also visible to the naked eye.
The quaint courtyard, the bright and clean streets, the weeping willows draping along the street, and the dreamy peach blossoms. Under Wang Zi'an's superb brushwork, the elegant, simple, romantic and beautiful atmosphere almost overflows from the painting.
After examining it for a long time, Cheng Yinger was the first to notice something strange.
"Husband, where do you draw this? How do I look at it? It looks a bit like the side of Qujiang Pond..."
Then, she frowned again and said a little doubtfully.
"But I clearly remember that the area was filled with low, shabby, ordinary houses. How could there be such exquisite places?"
When Wang Zi'an heard this, he couldn't help laughing.
…
Gao Ting of Wannian County and Guo Desi of Chang'an County, upon hearing that there was His Majesty's decree and that it was the matter of the Marquis of Chang'an, they naturally cheered up and gave Li Su almost unreserved support.
.
However, coordinating the people and mobilizing manpower, especially when it comes to re-signing compensation, cannot avoid a lot of pulling and pulling.
But fortunately, this is Datang.
Most of the people in the south of the city are ordinary common people, and occasionally some dignitaries are involved. They are not willing to offend the current Zong Zhengqing and Chang'an Marquis because of this trivial benefit.
Therefore, although there were some troubles in the matter, under Li Su's personal supervision and the two county magistrates Gao Ting and Guo Desi personally running the errands, the progress was extremely fast.
In less than half a month, I managed to get everything done.
"Your Majesty, fortunately you have lived up to your command——"
Inside the royal study.
Li Shimin first asked Li Su, who looked tired, to sit down, poured a cup of tea for Li Su with his own hands, and then reached out to take the memorial handed over by Li Su and nodded.
"Uncle Emperor, thank you for your hard work..."
Even with his own support, it is not an easy task to put all the preparations for the reconstruction of the entire southern part of the city in such a short period of time.
For Li Su to be able to achieve this, one can imagine the hard work he put in.
"The Marquis of Chang'an said that the entire reconstruction plan can be divided into four stages. The first stage starts from Qujiang Pool. There are fewer people who need to be relocated there, which can reduce the pressure of preliminary preparations. Waiting for the first batch
Once the houses are built and the people see the results, the subsequent work will be much easier..."
Speaking of this, Li Su was very emotional.
"Although the Marquis of Chang'an is young, he is very organized and thoughtful in his work. He is truly a talented person for the country."
In fact, it was precisely because of this that the entire preliminary preparation work went so smoothly.
Li Shimin nodded cheerfully, with a smile on his face.
"It's okay. When I was on the street, I could tell at a glance that the kid was a promising kid. I chased him for several streets before I caught him. Later I found out that my vision was right. This kid really had a lot of potential.
He is smart and talented - but after all, he is still young, so you can't praise him too much. In the future, you, the elders, will be needed to give you more support..."
Li Su:......
Your Majesty, you are like this, how can I beat him?
"Ahem, Your Majesty, I don't know how busy Chang'an Marquis is now. If everything is ready, before the busy farming season, we can gather people first and start the first phase of the project...
…”
Li Shimin nodded and turned to look at Li Junxian.
"How are the preparations going with the Marquis of Chang'an..."
Seeing that Li Junxian looked slightly hesitant, he thought that his question was not clear enough, so he immediately added.
"What has he been busy with recently..."
Li Junxian glanced at Li Shimin and Li Su secretly, looking a little strange.
"I heard from people that the Marquis of Chang'an has been taking his family to play in the farmland in the east of the city during this time - and recently he even had a thatched cottage built there. It is said that the Shaofu Prison has a special hut built there.
This transfer allocated a batch of lavender..."
Li Shimin:......
Li Su:!!!!!!
We, the people, have been so busy working on this matter for you that you ended up running away to enjoy yourself and be happy. You are simply not a son of a human being.
The monarch and his ministers looked at each other.
"Come on, let's go see what this brat is doing!"
…
"Madam, you really have a keen eye..."
Wang Zi'an smiled and nodded.
"What is painted here is indeed Qujiang Pool. I plan to build a leisure villa area like this not far from the bank of Qujiang Pool, and then build a new residential area on the outer layer..."
Wang Zi'an excitedly told his daughters-in-law and Gao Yang about his ideas.
Su Su and Chang Le's eyes lit up when they heard this. Looking at the renderings in front of them, they could imagine how beautiful it would be after the construction with just a little imagination.
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, after you finish practicing, you can also give me a set..."
Seeing Wang Zi'an looking at him with strange eyes, Gao Yang couldn't help but shrink slightly with a guilty conscience, but then he stood forward again and tried hard to puff up his small chest.
"I, I can have a small set..."
As he spoke, he hugged Chang Le's arm.
"elder sister……"
Wang Zi’an:……
Hey--
I know who is easy to coax...
"Okay, I'll give you a set -"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Wang Zi'an waved indifferently.
"However, you can't give it away for free. If you don't have any money, you can owe it. In the future, it will be slowly deducted from the perfume workshop..."
A villa is nothing, but I just don't want her to get it so easily.
Seeing this little girl's mouth tightening and wanting to act coquettishly, Wang Zi'an had already looked away.
"Don't forget it..."
The grievance on Gao Yang's face immediately disappeared, and he hugged Wang Zi'an's arm in a flattering manner.
"Yes, yes, yes, thank you brother-in-law..."
Feeling the slightly raised softness on his arm, Wang Zi'an calmly retracted his arm. Thank you brother-in-law, just thank him, no matter what words he said.
Unlike Chang Le and Su Su, Cheng Yinger couldn't help but frown slightly after hearing Wang Zi'an's plan.
"Husband, you want to do something good for the people in the south of the city. I have no objection. But according to your plan just now, this project is not small. The money and food spent accumulated will probably be an extremely astonishing figure..."
Seeing the worried look on Cheng Ying'er's face, Wang Zi'an couldn't help but smile.
"Madam, don't worry, this money..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a familiar burst of laughter coming from outside. Upon hearing this sound, Changle almost jumped up from his stool with joy, which made Wang Zian's eyes jump.
Seeing Li Shimin and Li Su coming hand in hand, Wang Zi'an already thought of their purpose. He casually rolled up the scroll on the table, pushed it aside, and greeted them with a smile on his face.
Li Shimin was about to say hello to this guy, but Wang Zi'an made a mistake and ran straight towards Li Su.
Li Shimin:......
He retracted his arms and straightened his clothes, then looked around and talked to him without changing his expression.
"Ahem, the yard is well repaired..."
Wang Zi'an could ignore Li Shimin, but Cheng Ying'er, Chang Le and Gao Yang couldn't. They pretended not to have seen the scene just now and stood up to greet him.
Li Shimin couldn't help but have a kind smile on his face.
Wang Zi'an ignored him and greeted him politely.
"Zi'an has met Zong Zhengqing, and Zong Zhengqing came to visit. The humble house is really full of glory..."
Li Su knew that His Majesty was still acting out there, and he felt funny and helpless at the same time. He consciously assumed the role of today's distinguished guest and stepped forward with a smile in return.
"The Marquis of Chang'an is too polite to take the liberty of visiting me. Please forgive me——"
As he spoke, he looked around at the newly built thatched cottage in Wang Zi'an.
"The Marquis of Chang'an is really an elegant man. If the world is full of spring, I'm afraid you will have to monopolize seven points of this thatched cottage..."
Wang Zi'an couldn't help laughing, and glanced at it. He had already sat on the stone bench aside, holding the watermelon that he had specially asked to drink cold water from the well. Li Shimin, who was eating there, said as if he had something to say.
.
"That's because, Zong Zhengqing, you are also an elegant and noble person. If you were replaced by those businessmen and others who are full of copper-smelling eyes, I'm afraid you will only feel shabby..."
Li Shimin:......
No, if you say merchant, just say merchant. What are you looking at me for?
Fortunately, although this bitch has a cold nose and cold eyes, his daughter is still a good and filial daughter. Cheng Ying'er is also a person who understands etiquette. Not only did she get iced cold melon, but she also got herself exquisite
pastries.
We don't know anything about this bitch.
When Li Su started to admire this wild thatched cottage with great interest, Wang Zi'an came up to Li Shimin with a wink.
"Awesome, Lao Li, when did you get on Zong Zhengqing's thigh?"
Li Shimin couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth imperceptibly, and laughed dryly.
"What are you talking about? I am originally a member of the royal family, so what's so strange about meeting Zong Zhengqing..."
Wang Zi'an sat down carelessly and tapped the tea cup in front of him with his hand.
"Come on, Lao Li, pour some wine for me, and introduce you to an opportunity to make a fortune..."
Li Shimin:......
He wanted to struggle, but he was poor and could not live up to his expectations. He subconsciously picked up the teapot and poured tea for Wang Zi'an very skillfully.
Chang Le didn't react at all, but Gao Yang was dumbfounded.
Wang Zi'an then put his arm around Li Shimin's shoulders, leaned his head towards him, and spoke mysteriously.
"I have already discussed with Zong Zhengqing to carry out large-scale renovation of the slum areas in the south of Chang'an City. If the imperial court cooperates, I may not be able to carry out a completely new renovation of the entire West City in the future. How much of it will be needed?
Wood, bricks and wood, you figure it out yourself..."
Having said this, Wang Zi'an picked up the tea in front of him, took a sip, and glanced at Li Shimin who was standing aside.
"You have some connections in Chang'an. If you are so willing, I will leave this business to you. I will ensure that you have enough to eat in one go, and you have to leave your home and business and run away from the customs in a pitiful way.
To do that little trivial business?”
When Li Shimin heard this, his eyes lit up!
Before coming here, he really didn't think of this, but when Wang Zi'an said this, he suddenly became enlightened.
Yes, if this business really falls into my hands...
Why am I afraid of not having money?
Of course, it is impossible for him to actually do business by himself, but as long as he nods his head, there will naturally be people under him to help him make this business a success.
Follow along and make a fortune.
It’s just that Zian paid for him to rebuild the south of the city and then earned his money by himself. Isn’t it a bit...
Hey, whoever makes money is not making money, and the wealth does not flow to outsiders!
The worst thing is, I will earn less from him.
Just do it if you think of it.
Li Shimin immediately patted his chest.
"Okay, leave this matter to me. If nothing else, I will never lose you. Let's do it this way. Regardless of what materials you buy from me in the future, I will always pay 60% - ahem, 70% - of the market price.
How about selling it to you at 70% of the market price? Tell me if my old father-in-law is loyal!"
The smile on Wang Zi'an's face couldn't help but become more sincere.
Sure enough, good people are rewarded. Originally, I just wanted to take care of Lao Li, a poor emperor, but I didn't expect that I would get such an unexpected gain.
