Chapter 9:
Not to mention Li Shiming and the others who were desperately preparing for disaster relief, Tang Shanshi had once again moved out of his house. After all, he had been kicked out. He still had to do something on the surface, and it was also to make plans for the future!
However, it was different this time. The Tang family's manor outside Chang 'an City was his. Tang Shanshi was ready to build it well and see what his future land would look like. Moreover, before the disaster relief began, he should make a fortune first, right?
It was a good idea, but when they reached the place, they almost cried. There were less than 30 families in the village, and when they asked, they actually answered that they had run away! This was Chang 'an Fortress. Where were they fleeing to?
Initially, he wanted to build it up, but Tang Shanshi had suffered a blow. He was still too young. There was not much land that could be cultivated in the village. Most of it was mountainous, and there were many stones on it. There were not many people, and the most important thing was that he did not have money, okay? He was wondering why that old bastard Tang Jian agreed to his request for the manor so quickly. So there was no one here?
Tang Shanshi was furious." Go catch locusts for me! Twenty locusts for one coin! Get lost!" The people in the manor thought that their new young master had gone crazy. They all refused to move, and some even went out to escape. This made Tang Shanshi happy. He didn't plan to recruit too many people, but now it was good!
After a few children brought the locusts over to pay back the money, the remaining people in the village began to capture the locusts. In other words, Tang Shanshi had already begun to act before Li Shimin did!
In the market of Chang 'an City, several Flying Shrimp restaurants opened quietly. Most of the dishes were very novel. The most famous dish was the land flying shrimp, which was actually locusts. However, the cooking method was fresh. All kinds of locusts looked delicious. There were more than 20 dishes of all kinds of flying shrimp. And the price was f * cking expensive.
What these Chang 'an nobles ate was fresh and expensive! To put it bluntly, they were cheap. Therefore, Tang Shanshi did not hold back and ruthlessly slaughtered them! In this way, Tang Shanshi's money was recycled, and every time it was recycled, it would be several times more!
Within a month, Tang Shanshi had already bought the Peach Blossom Forest, but he had not stopped. Now that His Majesty had started to collect locusts, it did not affect him too much. The price of the locusts he collected was a little higher than the price of the government, and the number of locusts he collected was limited. The government did not care about him. After all, it was the other party who had started to collect them first. If they forcefully controlled them, the censor would probably spit in Li Shimin's face!
The construction of his own manor had also begun. His idea was very simple. It would be like a ranch. He would take advantage of the money to buy a bunch of pigs, horses, cows, sheep, chickens, ducks, geese, and dogs! A few families managed one kind together. In addition, the manor was also huge. Moreover, these things would not make people starve! Even during a disaster, these things could be sold!
Li Shimin and the others had also come to their senses during this period of time. The disaster relief was almost over. If there were no accidents, there should be no problems. Now it was time to reward the meritorious officials. However, the problem had arisen. Who was this Tang Shanshi?
Li Shimin didn't sleep at night. He looked at the ceiling beam and thought about how to tip. He realized this problem. Why didn't he have any impression of Tang Shanshi? She pulled her hair and started to think. Her hair was falling down. This person was too mysterious. How could she not have any impression of him?
"What's wrong with Your Majesty? Why don't you tell ChenQie about it!" Empress Zhangsun couldn't take it anymore. If this continued, her husband would become a monk. This couldn't be done! Therefore, he started to ask Li Shi Min!
"Guanyin servant, do you know who Tang Jian's fifth son, Tang Shanshi, is? Why don't I have any impression of it?”Looking at the Guanyin maid Li Shimin, the Empress knew more about the children of the officials than she did!
"Tang Shanshi? Why did His Majesty suddenly think of this child?”Empress Zhangsun was stunned at first, then she asked. She had an impression of Tang Shanshi, but she did not know much. After all, Tang Shanshi was not the eldest son or the second son. He was already the fifth son, so they did not pay much attention to him!
"No need to ask. Zhen wants to know why Zhen has no impression of him at all. This person is hiding too deeply!" It could be said that most of the dukedom's disciples had seen Li Shiming before, but this Tang Shanshi seemed to have appeared out of thin air. If he was deliberately hiding himself, then this person was too terrifying!
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid you've misunderstood!" Empress Zhangsun laughed. She knew what Li Shiming was thinking, but it would be strange if she had an impression of him.
The Guanyin maid looked at Li Shimin's puzzled eyes and said,""It's not strange that Your Majesty doesn't know about this child. Even ChenQie doesn't pay too much attention to it. After all, this child is the fifth child of the Tang family. He was not qualified to inherit the title. At most, he relied on one of his brother's small martial guards to live, so of course, His Majesty had no impression of him! Why was His Majesty suddenly interested in this child?”
"Guanyin servant, why don't you tell me in detail? A few days ago, Tang Jian suddenly came to me with a disaster relief plan, saying that Tang Shanshi had specially suggested it. After a few days, this plan was indeed good, but the idea was a little novel. It should be time to reward according to merit, but after thinking about it, I realized that this person actually didn't exist in my memory!”
Li Shimin was depressed. Tang Jian was a bastard in his eyes. He pretended to be dead every day in court. He didn't even care about a fart. Damn it, I'm so busy every day, but he's so free. Who the hell is the emperor? Li Shiming was angry no matter how he looked at it.
" It's understandable that Your Majesty doesn't know. This child has never been liked by Tang Jian. Although he is the son of the first wife, his family position is very awkward. He was even kicked out of the house by Tang Jian some time ago. I heard that he is busy in the manor outside Chang 'an City and doesn't like to deal with people. Because of his awkward identity, he doesn't interact with the children of officials, so few people know about him!”
Empress Zhangsun was actually very concerned about the descendants of these important officials because her daughter was very likely to marry into them in the future. At first, she also paid attention to Tang Shanshi, but because her identity was too awkward, she did not think too much about it!
