Li Shimin's face changed slightly. Yuan Tiangang observed his words and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, do you want me to stop you..."
"No need." Li Shimin said with a cold face, "That boy may not take you seriously, I will take care of him myself!"
With that said, Li Shimin opened the curtain and got out of the car. When Eunuch Gao saw this, his heart was in his throat and he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, there are many people here and you are still in the car..."
"What's wrong with the large number of people? I'm galloping on the battlefield, and there are so many people I haven't seen before. Don't cover up for them, get out of the way!"
Li Shimin pushed Eunuch Gao aside, jumped down from the carriage, and was about to push forward when he heard the head of the guard speak. He saw the head of the guard say in a low voice: "Master Marquis, please be considerate to everyone. If it weren't for the superiors,
The pressure is tight, who dares to tease the marquis's tiger beard? Haven't the envoys from Gaochang not left yet? You said that the slaves filling the streets are really an eyesore and damaging to the face of the Tang Dynasty!"
Li Shimin frowned and stood still, no longer leaning forward. He wanted to see how Li Mu would answer.
"The face of the Tang Dynasty?" Li Mu snorted and said: "When did the Tang Dynasty need to put on a face? I'm still surprised. I haven't seen you dogs being so attentive in the past few days. Why is it patrolling again these days?
It’s cleaning again, so it’s just to show off to the Gaochang envoy?”
Li Mu got close to the police chief's face and asked, "Don't you think it's embarrassing? Why don't you pretend to show this to outsiders? Why don't you just pretend to do it? That street, you usually sweep it! In one year, you will fucking do it
Who will you scan these days for?"
As he spoke, Li Mu pointed to the ragged slaves next to him and asked: "Let me ask you, why do these people disgrace me, the Tang Dynasty? They are slaves, and that's what they look like. Which country's slaves wear brocade clothes? You
What kind of face do you want from them? You have to pretend to make people think that even beggars in the Tang Dynasty wear silk and satin? Are you stupid, or are they stupid? A two-year-old child can see fakeness, can't others?
?”
The servant did not dare to reply. The more Li Mu spoke, the angrier he became. He cursed: "I am just fucking bothering you bastards. I spend my whole day doing these useless vacations and giving useless farts. I will never really do something."
I can't count on you. You look down on these slaves, don't you? Ha! You deserve it too! Bah!"
Li Mu spat and said loudly: "Everyone, listen to me!"
Li Mu patted Li Chongyi's shoulder, and Li Chongyi squatted down and hugged his legs to resist him. Against the background of Li Chongyi's eight-foot height, Li Mu suddenly seemed to be standing on a high platform, standing taller in vain. Everyone
You can all see him clearly.
"No matter why you became slaves, and no matter whether you are convinced or not, in short, you are slaves, you are still lowly, and you will be looked down upon by these people who look down on others!" After Li Mu finished speaking, he looked at
The slaves looked embarrassed and ashamed, and suddenly shouted loudly: "I only want to ask you, do you want to change? Do you want to escape from the humble status, do you want to become a good citizen! Marry a wife, have children, start a family and start a business!"
No one responded, and all the slaves looked at him blankly. From the moment they became slaves, being good citizens, marrying, having children, and starting a family were all things that they dared not even think about.
"No one answered?" Li Mu stared at the slaves and said, "One last question, do you want to do it or not?"
"Think!" I don't know who shouted first, and then one after another, and the shouts became loud!
"Okay!" Li Mu shouted, and the slaves' voices calmed down. They all stared, waiting for Li Mu to speak.
"You haven't given up on yourselves, so I won't give up on you either. Listen to me, the money I paid to buy you is two guan for each person, and the money for the government to get out of humble status is ten guan for each person.
, In other words, if you can come up with twelve coins, you will be free!"
"Of course you have no money, but it doesn't matter! My emperor is kind and has set up the Ministry of Internal Affairs and let me take charge of it. Now the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Industry cooperate to launch many businesses. There is a lack of manpower to do the work! That's why I bought you.
But you have to understand! There are plenty of people to do the work, and it doesn’t have to be you. Buying you is His Majesty’s grace. Do you understand?”
I don’t know who took the lead. The slaves knelt down and shouted long live His Majesty.
The slaves knelt down, and the standing person stood out. Li Mu saw Li Shimin, as if someone had strangled his neck, and his face became embarrassed. Li Shimin glanced at him, turned back to the carriage and got in, Li Mu
He took a deep breath and continued his performance.
"Everyone, get up. Just have this heart. Remember, this is His Majesty's grace."
Li Mu continued: "So, where will these twelve coins come from? I have already made a plan for you. You will enter the Ministry of Works as slaves and work as apprentices first. The apprentices will pay fifty coins a day and take care of the food!
If the apprentice does well, he can be promoted to a laborer. The laborer will be responsible for one hundred cents a day and take care of the food! If you are resourceful, can learn a craft, or have the craft yourself, you don't need to go through this level-by-level process.
Promotion, directly take the assessment and become a technician! A technician has two hundred coins per day! From the beginning of being a technician, he no longer cares about his job. People who work as technicians don't eat from the big pot, they all start their own small stoves!"
"On top of the technicians, there are technicians. Technicians work at five hundred dollars a day, but this is a bit far away from you. Just think about it. I tell you this to motivate you and give you a goal."
"Let's put it this way, this is how wages are calculated. You won't get cash until you save enough two thousand dollars. Your wages will be recorded in an account, and your redemption money will be calculated. After the account has enough two dollars, your deed of sale will be returned to you.
You guys. After this, if you save enough ten guan of money, you can find the scribe in charge of you and ask him to help you go to the government and eliminate your low status, so that you will become good citizens in the future."
"Are you satisfied with the arrangement I have made under His Majesty's instructions?"
After hearing this, all the slaves were so ecstatic that they could not control themselves. Some were howling with excitement, and some were crying bitterly. After they became slaves, they originally thought that they would be slaves for the rest of their lives. If they were lucky and ended up with a kind master, they would be able to
Marrying a wife and having children means being a slave for generations. I didn’t expect that there would be a day of change in this life. How could I not be extremely excited?
Nothing can win people's hearts more than giving freedom to a slave. Li Mu is also half a fan of Che Guevara, so he understands this truth clearly.
"Stop!" Li Mu suddenly shouted again, stopping the ecstatic slaves. He said with a cold face: "It's not time to be happy yet, don't forget, you are still slaves! Are you still here?
Before you earn back twelve guans, you will still be slaves worse than dogs, or will you be looked down upon by others, how happy are you?"
When the slaves heard this, they hurriedly restrained their joy and listened to Li Mu honestly. Now Li Mu was their living ancestor, especially because he was so moody, which frightened them even more.
"I have spent so much money to buy you, and your Majesty has given you such great grace. I am extremely benevolent and righteous to you. Have you ever seen such a benevolent and righteous monarch among the hundreds of emperors in the past?"
After raising the question, Li Mu answered by himself: "No, not one! Even Emperor Qin and Han Wu could not do it. Only His Majesty in the current dynasty has such a kind heart. You should remember it in your heart and engrave it in your soul.
Generations of ancestors will remember that you became good citizens from slaves. It was the kindness of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Is this right?"
"The Marquis is right! Your Majesty will last for eternity, and the Marquis will last for eternity!"
"There's no need to talk about flattering people. I hired you to do the work. A job well done is better than anything else. Let's talk about the ugly things first. If anyone dares to cheat, ha!" Li Mu sneered and said: "
The first time, hang him up and beat him up. The second time, no, there is no second time. The second time I find someone cheating on you, I will throw him under the Ba Bridge to feed the fish. I will do what I say! Let me live up to the emperor.
For those who have been kind, death is not a pity!"
"The Marquis is wise!"
"That kind of person deserves to die!"
"You should chop it up and feed it to the dogs!"
The shouts continued, and Li Mu called Gongsun Kang over, pointed at him, and said: "It's getting late. This is Gongsun Kang, a member of the Ministry of Industry. He will take you to have a full meal in a while, and then give you
Each person is given two sets of work clothes. Please keep them carefully and don't throw them away. In particular, this batch of work clothes is specially sponsored by Peony Garment Factory. Everyone must remember Mrs. Peony's kindness. Have a good sleep tonight.
When you get up tomorrow morning, the foreman will take you to work. If you have skills, tell the foreman and he will help you arrange the assessment. I wish you can become a technician in one step!"
"Okay, let's go eat!"
When all the slaves heard the word "rice", they kissed each other even more than when they saw their parents. They cheered and jumped up, fearing that they wouldn't be able to eat.
When Li Mu saw this, he shouted: "You're all waiting in line for me. Whoever makes a mess again will not be given food and will starve to death like you bastards!"
Immediately, as if they had been immobilized, all the slaves became obedient and lined up obediently without anyone's instructions.
Li Mu patted Li Chongyi on the shoulder and motioned for Li Chongyi to put him down. With his feet on the ground, shielded by Li Chongyi's huge body, he threw a piece of silver to the head of the guard. The head of the guard put it in his sleeve and saluted Li Mu.
He took his brother and ran away in despair.
Everything is just acting, and everything is under the control of director Li Mu.
Watching Li Muchun finish his words, Hu San'er hurriedly came over, rubbed his hands with a smiling face and said, "Master Hou, there are a total of 670 young men and 30 women cooking. The total is exactly 800."
Personally, 1,600 guan, or... you can give me 1,500 guan. You are a big customer, so you must get some discounts."
"Fart!" Li Mu hurriedly went to see Li Shimin, but was stopped by Hu San'er. He was upset and opened his mouth to curse: "I am a man who is short of money? Do you care about your hundred coins? Xiaojiu, go to the bank to get it for him.
Two thousand guan, or the extra 400 guan will be exchanged for gold ingots, and I will hit him on the head and hit him all over the head!"
