"I told you guys, don't be too busy bragging and spanking. Let's hurry up in case those guys leave early.
What if we put our share in their cars? Is it possible that we can go look for it from family to family?"
After hearing Li Ji's words, Cheng Yaojin's expression suddenly changed.
"Oh, yes, yes, brothers, we have to go there quickly.
There will be many people at the dock soon, and if our bonus pepper is lost to those shameless old guys, we can’t just knock on the door and ask for it, right?”
"It shouldn't happen..." Qin Qiong said these words, but couldn't help but speed up.
The generals who were on duty at Tonghua Gate today really had a lot of experience. First, they saw Generals Cheng, Li Bingbu, and General Qin leading their servants and driving their cars to the east through Tonghua Gate during their duty hours.
go.
Not long after that, General Yuchi, General Chai, Jiangxia King Li Daozong, Niu Jinda, Li Keshi, and even Li Dejiang, the youngest son of the military god Li Weigong, and other numerous military nobles all left Tonghua Gate and headed east.
go.
Even Fang Xuanling, the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, personally led his servants and vehicles to go there. There was no way, Fang Daxiang didn't want to go.
But considering that if Fang Shen is allowed to go there, what if those rough guys who don't follow the rules will do anything to our old Fang family?
After all, our old Fang family also has three shares of dividends. Fang Xuanling is also a little bit sad when he thinks that the three hundred kilograms of pepper that he originally thought was enough to beat the dog, has now turned into almost four thousand kilograms of pepper.
I couldn't help but silently praise my original wisdom. It seemed that letting Erlang follow Cheng Sanlang was indeed the right thing to do.
Of course, it doesn't mean that he can earn thousands of kilograms of pepper, but now, his Sanlang has done a lot of things with Li Ke and Cheng Chubi in Luzhou.
After all, he was the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, and he had a good understanding of the people's governance in Luzhou, and his disciples and former officials could almost be said to be partial to the world.
Even in Luzhou, there were officials who were old acquaintances of someone in his house. They wrote to Fang Xuanling in detail about the earth-shaking changes in Luzhou over the past few years.
Just when Fang Xuanling was letting his thoughts wander, he suddenly heard a shout.
"Master, look, they are all here..."
Fang Xuanling took a closer look, and sure enough, all those Wu Xun dignitaries had crowded in here and were chatting and laughing on the pier.
This made Fang Xuanling secretly relieved. Fortunately, she came over in person...
At this moment, he suddenly heard the sound of galloping hooves coming from behind him, and Fang Xuanling subconsciously turned his head.
Then he saw Zhao Kun, the leader of His Majesty's confidant bodyguards, coming on horseback in a menacing manner, followed by a group of palace guards behind him.
Seeing this scene, Fang Xuanling almost burst into laughter. It seemed that His Majesty must have the same worries as herself.
He specially sent someone he trusted to collect the dividends belonging to Her Royal Highness Princess Jinyang and others...

Li Shimin, Empress Changsun, and Li Mingda, a family of three, stood in front of the Manlu Hall.
At this moment, Zhao Kun was striding at the front, walking quickly with a proud face.
Behind him were more than a dozen large vehicles.
"Dad, there are so many..." Li Mingda couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw the dozen or so large cars finally stopping at His Majesty Ganlu.
"Ha, that's natural. Dad bought you a thousand kilograms of pepper back then, and now you got ten strands from the Han and Tang Trading Firms."
"But as a father, I really didn't expect that the pepper received from these ten shares of dividends would actually be so much..."
As Li Shimin spoke, he walked down the steps. At his signal, Zhao Kun opened a large box.
He opened the oil paper covering it, revealing the pepper seeds inside that were so full that they almost overflowed...
Li Shimin also enthusiastically grabbed a handful of pepper, brought it to his nose, took a deep breath, and asked Zhao Kun.
"Is this the income from the dividends of Jinyang's ten shares?"
"No, this is only 10% of this year's pepper production, which is specially used as dividends and distributed according to the number of shares held by each shareholder."
"In addition to the 13,000 kilograms of pepper received from Her Royal Highness Princess Jinyang's ten shares of dividends, there are also 1,300 kilograms of pepper from His Majesty the Supreme Emperor."
"???" Li Shimin looked at Zhao Kun in confusion.
Zhao Kun answered honestly. "This is what General Cheng said. His Majesty the Emperor had a private appointment with Cheng Sanlang, and Cheng Sanlang gave His Majesty the Emperor a share for free."
"..." Li Shimin and Empress Changsun had a dark look on their faces, but when they thought about how their own father often teased Cheng Sanlang, well...
This matter is probably true. My father is really capable of doing such a thing.
Li Shimin touched his nose and said, forget it. The son didn't say anything about his father's fault. Forget it. Anyway, it's only 1,300 kilograms of pepper, so it doesn't matter.
Zhao Kun took out another account book from his pocket and presented it with both hands respectfully.
"This is the list and account book. It is said that this year is the first harvest, so the output is very low. A total of only 800,000 catties of white pepper were harvested."
Li Shimin's face instantly stiffened, and he slowly turned his head and looked towards Zhao Kun.
"How many did you say?"
"Eight hundred thousand catties, this is just this year's output. By next year, the output is expected to almost double.
After that, the harvest per year will be about 15.6 million catties."
"..." Not only was Li Shimin's face stiff now, but Empress Changsun, who had always controlled her micro-expression very well, couldn't help but look a little pale.
15.6 million jins, the pepper in Chang'an City is about eight tons per jin, 15.6 million jins, how much money does that equate to...
Fortunately, Li Shimin was a person who had experienced strong winds and waves after all. After taking a few deep breaths, he finally calmed down.
Li Mingda over there grabbed a few handfuls and smelled them curiously, then put the pepper back into the box.
Turning his head, seeing his father trying to control his expression, Li Mingda reached out and held his father's hand and asked softly.
"Dad, pepper, is it valuable?"
"Not only is it valuable, it's worth as much as gold..."
#####
Li Mingda looked stunned, and then smiled brightly at Li Shimin.
"Dad, you can take it all, my daughter doesn't want it."
"You kid, what nonsense are you talking about? This is your dividend from the Han-Tang Commercial Bank, not your father's."
"But I am your daughter?" Li Mingda raised her cute little head and said.
"Dad is the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. He has to worry about the affairs of the entire world, and more importantly, he has to take care of all the people in the world."
"My daughter heard from her mother that a few days ago, her father was still worried about money and food for disaster relief. As a princess of the Tang Dynasty, she naturally has to share the worries for her father..."
Li Shimin stared blankly at the beloved daughter in front of him who was talking seriously.
He also saw Empress Changsun looking at her daughter with a loving face, and then her eyes fell on herself. She nodded slightly towards her.
"Husband, since this is Xiao Sizi's wish, just accept it..."
