Niu Xiaoer's face immediately turned sour. He couldn't do this. Where was the promised reward? How did it become a punishment?
What did he do wrong this time?
" Little Cattle," Li You said earnestly," Do you want to become stronger and protect me better?”
Niu Xiaoer nodded heavily.”
" Isn't that so?" Li You said," Let Yaoli train you a few more times. It will help you become stronger quickly and fulfill your wish. If this isn't a reward, what is it?"”
Niu Xiao 'er's mouth was wide open and he was speechless.
His Highness 'words are so reasonable that I can't refute them!
But why did she feel that something was wrong…
When Li You arrived at the Ministry of Revenue, he found that Li Shimin was also there.
"Imperial Father?" Li You went forward and asked curiously," Why are you here?”
Li Shimin pouted his lips to the side. Li You looked over and immediately understood.
Tang Jian's face was full of sadness. If Li Shimin didn't come, Li You wouldn't be able to get the money out of his hands.
Tang Jian was one of the twenty-four meritorious officials of the Lingyan Pavilion, the dignified Duke of Ju. However, he was forced into such a state because of a lack of money. Li You also felt very sad when he saw this.
" Alright, Maoyue," Li Shimin laughed," Yangjie is here, just give him the money."”
"But Your Majesty, I really can't bear to part with you!”
Tang Jian was on the verge of tears. Now was the time to use money. The three provinces and six ministries had extended their hands to him, but he had to give him 100,000 strings of money all at once?
It was as good as taking his life!
"Then why didn't you object to it in the court?”Li Shiming glared at him." And this is the money from the national treasury, not your family's. Why are you so distressed?"”
The corner of Tang Jian's mouth twitched when he heard this. Looking at the situation in the court, especially the tragic state of his subordinate, Liu Sanxing, how could he have the courage and face to go out?
Otherwise, he might be the next one to be slapped in the face by Li You!
Hasn't the Ministry of Revenue lost enough face?
"Lord Tang is extremely unwilling because he feels that this hundred thousand strings of money would most likely be wasted if given to this king, right?”Li You smiled.
Tang Jian was silent. It was obvious, but Li Shimin was right beside him, so he couldn't say anything bad.
Li Shi Min heard Li You's words and understood what he wanted to say.
"Maoyue, aren't you curious why I'm so sure that the King of Chu has the ability to make money?" Li Shimin asked after some consideration.”
Tang Jian was stunned, and then he revealed a curious expression.
Indeed, Li Shimin had personally vouched for Li You's ability in the court, but his words were vague. No one knew where Li Shimin's basis came from.
"When I tell you this, I must also give you an order to keep your mouth shut." Li Shi Min smiled.”
"I don't dare to leak a single word!" Tang Jian's expression turned solemn.”
"Do you know that King Chu secretly did business in Chang 'an three days ago?”
Tang Jian was shocked by Li Shimin's words.
F * ck, how could I know such a secret?!
At the same time, Tang Jian finally understood why Li Shimin wanted to keep his mouth shut. He couldn't help but look at Li You strangely.
As the saying went, scholars, farmers, merchants, and businessmen were ranked last. Li You was the most noble royal family, but he secretly went to do business. It was really unheard of.
Although many officials in the court or the families behind them did all kinds of businesses to earn money, they did not make it public.
" This…I really don't know." Tang Jian paused and asked," But what Your Majesty is talking about has nothing to do with His Royal Highness the King of Chu's talent.”
Even if King Chu Li You had started his business three days ago, it would be good enough for an ordinary person to be able to tidy up the shop and hire good employees in just three days. He had basically just started earning money, let alone showing some amazing talent!
Li Shimin shook his head." Maoyue, there's no rush. Why don't you guess first? How much was King Chu's revenue yesterday?"”
"Did you start earning money yesterday? That was fast…"
Tang Jian was slightly shocked and guessed,"About a few hundred wen?" It might even cost a thousand wen? The main thing was to see what kind of business His Royal Highness Chu was doing.”
Li Shimin revealed a mysterious smile. He seemed to see himself in Tang Jian this morning, and he was looking forward to what would happen next.
" Lord Chu's total revenue from yesterday alone…"
Li Shi Min took a deep breath and said,""Just close to three thousand strings of coins!"
" Wha…What!?"
Tang Jian's voice suddenly raised an octave, almost turning into a scream!
"Three thousand strings of money? How was this possible? Even if they were to rob money, it was impossible for them to rob so much in a day!”
Li Shimin was satisfied as he watched Tang Jian's confusion. Li You's mouth twitched.
"You're really an old brat…and this is clearly something I did, okay? Why do you look so proud?”
Li You shook his head and heard Li Shimin's face turn stiff."Absolutely true! Or are you doubting me?"
"I dare not!"
Tang Jian immediately lowered his head, but the incredulity in his eyes could not fade.
However, immediately after, a wave of excitement surged into Tang Jian's heart!
"If His Royal Highness King Chu can really earn three thousand strings in a short three days, then he is undoubtedly a genius! Perhaps he could really turn 100,000 strings into 1 million strings!”
Thinking of this, Tang Jian was extremely excited. The way he looked at Li You changed from unwilling to receive him to eager.
Because Li You might be the God of Fortune who solved his biggest problem!
……
Li You, who had finally returned from the Ministry of Revenue, leisurely returned to the Chu royal residence with a large carriage of money behind him.
" Next, I need to plan and prepare…"
Li You ordered someone to bring a pen and paper. Just as he was about to start, he heard the guard shout.
"Princess Xiang Cheng has arrived!"
"Royal Sister?" Li You looked up in surprise." What is she doing here?”
According to the vague memories of Li You's body, Princess Xiang Cheng was Li Shi Min's eldest daughter. She was praised by almost all the courtiers and was the famous eldest princess!
