"Coupled with the increasing number of merchants recently, I'm afraid it's not a fantasy that Jiannan Road will be more prosperous than Guanzhong!"
Du Ruhui was very moved and said, "Your Majesty, Su Chen's intelligence is truly unfathomable!"
"In this way, the development problem of Jiannan Road can be easily solved. I am ashamed of myself!"
“If you want to get rich, build roads first!”
"Easy to understand, this is a good saying passed down from generation to generation!"
After Du Ruhui's detailed explanation, His Majesty Li Er felt less depressed.
In this way, he could be regarded as unintentionally accomplishing a great deed that benefited the country and the people!
Although the road was named Su Road, the money was basically provided by him, the emperor!
Suddenly, His Majesty Li Er felt brighter and said with a smile: "Keming, are you blindly optimistic about this guy Su Chen?"
Du Ruhui shook his head and said: "No, Your Majesty, the old minister's evaluation of Su Chen is definitely the most true. I even feel that he is a bit unlike a mortal!"
"Keming, of course I won't doubt your ability to recognize people and judge things."
His Majesty Li Er stroked his beard and said: "In this way, I can safely marry Li Zhi to him."
"Your Majesty, are you serious about this?" Du Ruhui said in surprise.
Princess Changle's status is so noble. If she gets married, it will definitely be an event that everyone will be happy about!
Although His Majesty Li Er seemed to have expressed his attitude before, his sudden decision still shocked him!
"That's right."
His Majesty Li Er nodded and said: "Besides, I have already promised Li Zhi to let her go to Jiannan Road with Su Chen."
"Didn't His Majesty just ask the veteran whether the prince should be allowed to study with Su Chen for a while?" Du Ruhui suddenly asked.
His Majesty Li Er said: "That's true. Keming, do you have the answer?"
"Well, although this is a bit disrespectful."
"But I still have to say, anyway, there are already two princesses on the list for going to Jiannan Road this time, and adding a prince is not too abrupt!" Du Ruhui said with a smile.
"You really wanted to go out with me!"
His Majesty Li Er laughed loudly and said: "In that case, let's go to Wannian County to visit him tomorrow and see how he uses my money!"
"It just so happens that I also want to ask him about some things about road construction." Du Ruhui nodded.
After the two chatted for a while, Du Ruhui resigned and left.
Dusk, Wannian County, Su Zhai.
After a busy day, "Sichuan Merchant Liu" returned with a large amount of banknotes. Regardless of his exhaustion, he immediately went to find Su Chen.
"How's it going, Lao Liu? You weren't stared at when you came back, right?" Su Chen asked.
Old Liu took out the thick stack of bills from his arms, carefully handed it to Su Chen, and said: "Young master, don't worry, with Old Zhao and the others at the back, everything will be absolutely foolproof!"
"There are a total of 7,882,500 notes here."
"I divided it into more than fifty pieces according to the young master's request."
"good!"
Su Chen breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "You did a good job this time!"
"Master, don't do this to me, Old Liu, again if you ever happen to do something like this again."
Old Liu said with some fear: "I was almost scared out of my mind in front of the Tai Chi Hall today!"
"It's worthless!"
Su Chen glared at him and said, "I've told you, that Li Er is very stupid and still wants to save face and suffer. He will never be able to find out!"
"How about it? It shouldn't be revealed, right?"
"No, but Master, you have never seen His Majesty with your own eyes. He is so majestic!"
"As soon as he sat over there, he just looked at me, which made my legs tremble with fear!" Lao Liu continued.
"Okay, okay, I've suffered a lot for you this time. Go back and find Lao Xu to receive the reward yourself!" Su Chen said with a big wave of his hand.
"Okay, young master, I will go find Lao Xu now!"
Upon hearing this, Old Liu immediately became happy, got up and went to find the old housekeeper, Old Xu.
After he left, Su Chen took the stack of bills in his hand and looked at it several times. He was so happy!
I just heard him murmuring happily, "The ancients have not deceived me. This Li Er is really a good emperor who loves his people like his own son. This is too generous!"
His plan this time can be said to be a classic case of moral kidnapping and patriotic marketing!
Although it seems a bit inhumane, Su Chen can do it without feeling any guilt at all, and on the contrary, he feels at ease.
After all, I did not build this road just for my own use, but as a contribution to the Tang Dynasty.
Although, all this money came from Li Er.
However, Su Chen does all the dirty work, so it’s not too much to name him Su Dao then, right?
After counting the money again, Su Chen happily collected it.
The reason why Lao Liu was asked to divide the money into so many parts was mainly for portability.
If you had to carry it with you, it would be extremely troublesome.
Nowadays, counters have been opened in various places. When the time comes, you can just withdraw some money wherever you go.
Early the next morning, a very novel four-wheeled carriage drove out of Chang'an and headed straight for Wannian County.
Sitting in the car were His Majesty Li Er and Du Ruhui.
"Your Majesty, Su Chen's four-wheeled carriage is indeed much more comfortable than the carriage we rode before." Du Ruhui said.
"This little bastard is like this, he always likes to do weird things."
His Majesty Li Er nodded and said: "A few days ago, I took apart the Sizi carriage and had it studied several times."
"But I still don't understand why his four-wheeled car can turn simultaneously without feeling stuck at all!"
"Haha, the expert is indeed an expert. He is even proficient in craftsmanship like this!"
Du Ruhui sighed: "Even if you learn skills from your mother's womb, it's just like that?!"
His Majesty Li Er glanced at him speechlessly.
His own prime minister actually became a fanatical fan of others.
If word of this gets out, the entire Tang Dynasty will probably be frightened, right?!
Half an hour later, His Majesty Li Er arrived at Sujiazhuang.
As soon as he entered, His Majesty Li Er saw a person who made him feel complicated.
This person is the so-called "Sichuan merchant Liu"!
really!
Where did the merchants from Shu come from? It was Su Chen’s conspiracy!
Du Ruhui also saw this person and was immediately startled.
"Your Majesty, should we hide a little bit? This old Liu has seen you before!"
"It doesn't matter."
His Majesty Li Er waved his hands and said: "Yesterday in that hall, he didn't even dare to look at me."
Having said that, His Majesty Li Er and Du Ruhui walked past Lao Liu in a swaggering manner.
Sure enough, as he said, Lao Liu didn't recognize it at all!
Even Lao Liu was glared hard by His Majesty Li Er.
