Prince Li Yingzheng, King E Li Yao, and King Guang Li Ju were drinking tea in the pavilion in the backyard of the palace. However, Li Ying had been feeling uneasy. He didn't know whether Li Siye's plan would succeed or if anyone would buy these invitations. He was also afraid that someone would buy them.
If it were leaked to the emperor, if something went wrong, he would lose everything.
"Second brother, who gave you this bad idea? Not to mention what would happen if Aye knew about this matter. Who would be stupid enough to spend two thousand yuan to watch a polo match?
Qiu, isn’t this because you are full after eating?”
"I think so." Li Ju also nodded and said: "No matter how you look at it, this is a stupid move. I think it is better to follow Taifu Xiao's suggestion and the three of my brothers go to Aye to apologize. Isn't it because they owe the Taifu
How many millions does the temple treasury have? At worst, Aye will ban us. If we save a little in the future and play less polo, we can pay back the money we owe Taifu Temple."
Li Ying was hesitant and was touched. Li Siye's method was indeed too risky and he might not be able to raise money. If the matter didn't go through and someone stabbed him, he would really lose a lot of money this time.
He stood up from the stone pier and decided to take a look outside. If no one came to buy the invitation stickers, he would ask them to stop and go to the Daming Palace with his brothers to apologize.
As soon as Li Ying took a few steps, Zhan Shi from the Prince's Mansion stumbled in with a plan in hand, which made Li Ying's heart sink. Could it be that something really happened?
"What's wrong?"
Zhan Shi couldn't help but ran to the prince, knelt down on one knee and folded his hands to report: "Your Highness, all the invitations have been sold!"
Li Ying clapped the back of her hands and asked happily: "How much did it cost? Is it enough to repay the treasury?"
"Enough! Absolutely enough!" Zhan Shi started to calculate with the chips, and then took a stone to write and draw on the ground. Li Ying waited patiently aside, and finally Zhan Shi closed the chips, bent down and congratulated.
: "Your Highness, the total is about eight million yuan! In addition to going to the treasury to repay the remaining two million yuan!"
The prince's hanging heart finally dropped, and he said happily: "That's good, that's good!"
He immediately ordered Zhan Shi to say: "But this matter is not over yet. These people who bought the invitation stickers are all going to watch the game. Let Li Siye maintain order when the time comes. Don't let the people of Shou Wang and the Prince Consort see it."
Show a flaw!"
"Your Highness, please rest assured. I will go out and settle him right away."
Li Ying was halfway through the big event, and even walked much more easily. She walked to the pavilion with her head held high, and she felt more and more comfortable when she saw the surprised expressions of the two brothers.
"In just two days, my second brother has raised more than eight million yuan?"
"How did the second brother come up with this idea? My brother still owes the treasury one million, and I hope the second brother can help!
Li Ying put her hands behind her back and squinted her eyes and said: "Humans, when they are in a crisis, they will always come up with some way. This is called wisdom arising out of desperation. The money thing is easy to talk about. When I pay off the accounts of Taifu Temple, what is left?"
I'll leave the money for you two to help you out."
"Second brother is indeed the second brother. We brothers will rely on you more in the future."
"Second brother, this plan is beyond the reach of ordinary people. He can think of such a wonderful way. If he inherits the throne in the future, my country, the Tang Dynasty, will be carried forward in this prosperous age in the hands of second brother!"
Li Ying waved her hand quickly: "Be careful with your words, be careful with your words, now that Aye is in the prime of life, we still have a long time to wait, so we must not say such things.
The prince Li Ying was still very proud. He settled the debt owed to the treasury within two days. The two brothers, King E and King Guang, admired him very much. Since he became the prince, he had never encountered such a smooth thing.
This Li Siye is really a weirdo. He has rescued himself from crises twice. He needs to be promoted more in the future.
Don't worry about this matter now. After the football match is over and the court's investigation is over, he will promote Li Siye.
…
Li Siye rode a horse and rushed to the oil-sprinkled polo ground in Jinggongfang. The railings and curtains around the court had been circled. All the curtains were one foot high. Those who wanted to watch the game without buying tickets could not see it unless they took a ladder.
.
He has already brought over half of the people from the left and right gates from the prince, mainly to maintain order on the scene and prevent disruptions to the game, crowding, stampedes and other incidents. It is really not possible to ask four thousand people to watch the game obediently.
An easy thing.
The more important thing is to separate the princes, princesses, dignitaries and princesses from the common people of Chang'an, and assign them to their own areas. Li Siye also had a way. He directly built two passages with curtains, the VIP passage.
Those in the VIP channel do not need tickets, and more people should be posted to guard them to prevent some unreasonable people from going to the wrong place with invitation stickers.
When everything settled down, Li Siye breathed a sigh of relief. In his previous life, he was very envious of managers who organized various events. As a kickboxer, he had to bear the risk of being beaten and injured on the stage.
Professional managers only need to rent a venue, do some advertising, and then sell the tickets at the ticket office, and people can just lie at home and count their money.
This time in Datang, he was finally able to get over the addiction of being a professional manager, and he also started the first commercial competition. I don’t know if this initiative will leave a trace in history, even if it is a folk history.
At least it can tell the world that the NBA is so weak and we started playing like this more than a thousand years ago.
After he arranged everything, he left a team of people to guard here overnight, and he returned to the East Palace to report to the prince.
As soon as Li Siye entered the Jiade Hall, Li Ying ran down from the stage excitedly, tugged on his sleeve happily and said: "Li Siye, you have really made a contribution to my prince this time. After the polo match is over, I will
You are promoted! I will make you the chief historian of Nei Lv Mansion!"
Cao Jue, the leader in the right, and Chang Shi, Changchun, were standing nearby. After hearing the prince's words, Changchun showed an embarrassed smile.
The sweat in Li Siye's heart is that His Highness the Prince's emotional intelligence is really alarming. His family history is standing next to him, and you can actually say that. Isn't this just inflicting hatred on yourself?
He hurriedly crossed his hands and bowed: "Your Highness, you must not do it. Li Siye is so virtuous and capable. How can he be promoted after just a few days in the army? If you want a reward, just give me some property."
The prince tugged on the beard on his chin and thought for a moment. The East Palace is now a carrot and a pit. There are indeed no vacant positions. The officials have not made a mistake, and they cannot remove them at will. When there are vacancies in the future, Li Siye will be promoted.
that is.
"Okay, I will give you a reward when the competition is over."
He discussed the competition matters with the prince again, then retreated to lead the palace on the right.
In fact, there were some things he didn't tell the prince. The ticket issue was just the beginning. There were other ways to make money by hosting this polo match. He was already ready to use the 30,000 yuan in hand to build a stake outside the venue.
When gambling, you must maximize your profits if you want to play.
When Li Siye returned to the prince's palace, a group of people admired him so much that they even looked at him with a trace of admiration. It was indeed worship. They had never seen anyone rise to such a high status in the prince's palace.
So fast, just like them yesterday, I was promoted from the seventh rank to a minor official. Today, I have received praise and attention from His Highness. I will be promoted and make a fortune in the future. It is just around the corner.
Li Siye had different ideas from them. The prince had some minor problems. Such minor problems had no impact on the iron-clad position of the prince, but if a father like Li Longji was involved, it would be a fatal problem.
As the saying goes, closeness cannot be achieved through alienation, and closeness cannot be saved by alienation. He must not interfere in the affairs of the emperor's family, otherwise when the Prince's Building is about to collapse, he will also be shattered to pieces.
Now it is better to rely on the prince to earn some extra money for himself. Although he is not obsessed with a luxurious and luxurious life, he will still need money when working hard in the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty in the future, especially the officialdom in the later period of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, which was full of greedy people.
A guy who doesn't spit out bones.
So he must make plans early and prepare for the future.
