For Su Chen, this business is indeed a sure profit!
Moreover, not only do you not have to worry about it, but you can also relieve the pressure of money for road construction. It really kills two birds with one stone!
…
After a long meal and wine, and a few more small talk, His Majesty Li Er and others were ready to return home.
After a few polite words with Su Chen, His Majesty Li Er and others got into the carriage and left Sujiazhuang.
On the swaying carriage, His Majesty Li Er asked Du Ruhui: "Xuancheng, do you believe what I say now?"
"I believe it!"
Du Ruhui smiled bitterly and nodded, saying: "It turns out that there really are such masters in this world. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes today, it would be unimaginable for me!"
"What do you think of Su Chen?" His Majesty Li Er smiled with interest and continued to ask.
Hearing this, Du Ruhui was stunned for a moment, and then said seriously: "A talented person from all over the world! A rare and capable person in the past and present!"
"Xuancheng, I didn't expect you to have such a high opinion of Su Chen!" His Majesty Li Er was very surprised.
You know, as Du Ruhui is his right-hand man, he naturally has very high standards, and it is really beyond his expectation that he can speak so highly of Su Chen.
"I'm not afraid of His Majesty's jokes. Just competing with him will make me feel ashamed." Du Ruhui said with a bitter smile.
Upon hearing this, Changsun Wuji and Wei Zheng nodded at the same time, feeling the same way!
"Your Majesty, why don't you recruit Su Chen into the court and let him farm in the countryside? It's such a waste!" Du Ruhui said with great regret.
Hearing this question, His Majesty Li Er didn't want to answer.
You can't say that Su Chen didn't feel good about him, so that's why he didn't go out, right?
After a moment of silence, he said dryly: "You saw today, this little bastard, he wants to trick me like this all day long."
"If he is recruited into the imperial court rashly, I don't know what trouble will happen."
"Moreover, he also said that he would cultivate the land for a peaceful and prosperous age."
"It's better to let him cultivate the soil first."
Hearing this, Du Ruhui was startled for a moment, then he was very surprised and said with a wry smile: "Perhaps all the experts in this world have some quirks."
…
On the second day, His Majesty Li Er naturally told Su Chen's method in the morning meeting.
Not surprisingly, he was once again flattered by all the ministers, which made His Majesty Li Er arrive at the Li Zheng Hall very happily.
"Guanyin Maid..."
As soon as His Majesty Li Er stepped into the house, he was ready to share these good things with Empress Changsun, but he was stunned by the scene in front of him!
Inside the room, Empress Changsun Zhengsu was seen leaning on the couch with her hands on her forehead, her face full of helplessness and sorrow.
Seeing His Majesty Li Er coming, she hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, you are here just in time, hurry up and teach your two precious daughters!"
"Abba!"
Princess Changle and Sizi shouted sweetly in unison.
"What's going on?" His Majesty Li Er asked curiously.
"You'd better ask yourself!" Queen Changsun sighed and didn't want to say anything more.
Before he could speak, Xiao Sizi said softly and softly: "Dad, I want to go to Jiannan Road with Brother Su."
Although Princess Changle did not speak, she raised her head slightly and stared at him with her big eyes blinking.
Obviously, Princess Changle also had the same idea as Xiao Sizi.
"this……"
His Majesty Li Er was immediately confused.
"Your Majesty, you two precious daughters have been pestering me since yesterday, saying that you want to go to Jiannan Road with Su Chen."
Empress Changsun said with a headache: "Anyway, I have tried my best, and I will leave the rest to your Majesty."
Hearing this, His Majesty Li Er's good mood was completely gone!
The behavior of these two girls made him feel very uncomfortable. Let’s not talk about Princess Li Lizhi of Changle. Why did even Xiao Sizi, a caring little cotton-padded jacket, suddenly rebel?!
If this had been the case in the past, after returning from the morning pilgrimage, I would definitely have had a bowl of bird's nest soup cooked by Princess Changle herself.
But ever since that little bastard Su Chen appeared, his benefits have disappeared!
Is this still my precious daughter?!
His Majesty Li Er is very suspicious whether that bastard Su Chen secretly drugged Princess Changle!
Otherwise, why would the original quiet, gentle and considerate Princess Changle suddenly make such a feeble request?!
These are his biological daughters, his precious treasures. They are afraid of melting when held in their mouths, afraid of falling when held in the palms of their hands. The palms and backs of their hands are all flesh. How can His Majesty Li Er have the heart to punish them with words?
"Tell me, Dad, why you must go to Jiannan Road with Su Chen?" His Majesty Li Er sighed.
"Brother said that Jiannan Road is very beautiful, fun, and has a lot of delicious food." Xiao Siban said seriously while looking at his fingers.
His Majesty Li Er was speechless when he heard this: "That kid is talking nonsense. There is nothing interesting in Jiannan Road. It's either deep mountains and old forests, or there are all kinds of man-eating swamps and rugged mountains with strange rocks."
"Did Su Chen say he would take you with him?!" His Majesty Li Er asked in a bad tone.
"It's sister..." The boy shook his head and said halfway when he was grabbed by Princess Changle beside him.
Okay, now His Majesty Li Er knows what's going on.
Li Er, Chen Xia and Queen Changsun looked at her meaningfully at the same time. Princess Changle's face instantly seemed to be dyed with sunset, and she could only lower her head and remain silent.
Sure enough, women are not allowed to stay in college!
His Majesty Li Er sighed in his heart!
After a while, His Majesty Li Er said: "Let dad think about this for a while. You can go back first."
Seeing that her father did not refuse her request, Princess Changle's bright eyes suddenly lit up.
After bowing to His Majesty Li Er, Princess Changle took little Si Ziyou and left the Zhengzheng Hall with some discomfort.
After the two precious daughters left, Empress Changsun asked with some surprise: "Your Majesty, you don't want to agree to Li Zhi and Si Zi accompanying Su Chen to Jiannan Road, do you?"
"Um."
His Majesty Li Er said: "I think it might not be impossible if Li Zhi goes with that boy."
Afterwards, he told Empress Changsun about Su Chen's strategy of exchanging highland barley wine for grain and selling paper.
"Tell me, the problem that troubled all the officials in the dynasty was solved by him in an understatement. If he ran away, the loss would be too great?!"
"When they come back, let's take the opportunity to bring them together. It's best to decide on the marriage as soon as possible!"
"Mr. Guanyin, what do you think?"
"this……"
Empress Changsun opened her mouth slightly, not knowing what to say.
Originally, she thought that His Majesty Li Er would be a little unhappy after hearing this, and even severely reprimanded Princess Changle.
But I didn't expect that he would have this kind of reaction and thoughts!
