"Haha!"
Seeing Zhao Yi's defeat, Li Shimin, who was enjoying himself, couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Zhao Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He looked at his daughter and confirmed that she really liked this girl called Xiaowu. He immediately shook his head and returned to his seat.
Seeing Tian Zi and Zhao Yi getting along like old friends, Fang Xuanling and Cheng Yaojin looked at each other and gradually let down their guard against Zhao Yi.
The two of them finally picked up their chopsticks.
"Huh?"
After tasting the side dish, the two of them looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
Cheng Yaojin immediately let go, rolled up his sleeves, and started eating.
He swallowed a mouthful of food and drank a mouthful of hard liquor.
"Ah! Good wine! It's so awesome!"
Cheng Yaojin was so happy that his black face almost turned red. Just as he was about to start eating, Li Shimin knocked his chopsticks and gave him a stern warning.
Li Shimin's meaning was obvious,"You silly fool, do you think there's a share for others?"
Cheng Yaojin snorted helplessly. He could only eat and drink like a beast locked in chains.
Fang Xuanling, on the other hand, was a refined man, so he was much nicer to eat than Cheng Yaojin.
Not long after, Li Shimin, Cheng Yaojin, and Fang Xuanling had their fill.
The three of them rubbed their stomachs comfortably.
Ah Da and Ah Er came over to serve tea.
Zhao Yi glanced at Li Lizhi, who hadn't touched her chopsticks yet, and said to his willful daughter,""Yaya, look, sister hasn't eaten yet. Come to daddy and let sister eat first.”
Li Lizhi's eyes lit up when she heard the word 'sister'.
She didn't like how Zhao Yi addressed her.
In Li Lizhi's arms, the little guy seemed to understand his father's words. He raised his head and looked at Li Lizhi with a pouting mouth and a wronged look in his eyes.
Li Lizhi's motherly instincts overflowed. She smiled and quickly hugged the little guy to coax him.
Li Lizhi wanted the little guy in her arms to be happy more than she wanted to fill her stomach.
"Big Brother Zhao, it's okay, I'm not hungry.”
This was because Zhao Yi had asked his daughter to call Li Lizhi Sister, which had indirectly lowered Li Lizhi's seniority by a generation.
In fact, it was not wrong, because he was now on the same level as Old Li.
However, Li Lizhi didn't want Zhao Yi to address her father as the same generation, so she returned the favor and called him Brother Zhao, indirectly turning them into the same generation again.
Li Shi Min knew his daughter very well, so he frowned when he noticed this little detail.
"Alright then. In that case, I'll get the kitchen to make a few more similar dishes later. You can bring them back to the residence to eat.”
Zhao Yi had no choice but to tell Ah Da and Ah Er that his daughter was clinging to Li Lizhi. He asked the kitchen to make a few more dishes and put them in a food box.
"Thank you, Brother Zhao."
Li Lizhi smiled lightly, her face full of happiness.
Li Shiming wasn't the only one who frowned. Fang Xuanling and Cheng Yaojin also frowned and looked at each other.
However, the three of them were only suspicious. They didn't really think that Li Lizhi had anything to do with Zhao Yi.
Li Shiming was in a good mood after he had eaten and drunk his fill. He could not help but shift his mind to another purpose of coming here.
Those were the questions that Zhao Yi had left him last time.
"Brother Zhao, I still remember the last time you told me that it was a very simple matter to let the people of the world eat and wear warm clothes.
I'm a businessman, in the grain and oil business, and also in the cloth business.
Although they were greedy for money, if they could do something to help the people while making money, they could wash away the stench of money and benefit future generations.
So, I still want to ask, Brother Zhao, is what you said last time true?”
Li Shimin took a sip of the hot tea and looked at the tea in his cup with a slight surprise. He finally couldn't hold it in any longer and explained the true purpose of his visit.
Zhao Yi was silent for a moment when he saw Old Li asking about the previous incident again.
"Actually, it's not that I can't say it. It's just that the time hasn't come yet, so it's useless to say it.”
"Then when is the time?”
Li Shi Min asked.
" Let's wait until next spring," Zhao Yi said." If you're really sincere, I'll tell you the details of this business. We can make money together then."”
"No, it's not only to earn money, but also to benefit the people of the world.”
Zhao Yi added.
Li Shimin was excited, but at the same time, he was itching to know what Zhao Yi was talking about.
"Humph! There are so many people in the world. Can you make them eat and wear warm clothes with just one sentence? What a joke!
Old Master, you're such a shrewd person. Why would you believe such words from him?”
Li Shimin was still skeptical, but Cheng Yaojin couldn't sit still and looked at Zhao Yi with dissatisfaction.
"Old Hei, don't be rude."
Li Shimin scolded Cheng Yaojin indifferently.
Cheng Yaojin grumbled unwillingly,"Master, if you want to say that this little brother's cooking is good and his wine is good, I, Old Hei, will definitely not say anything."
But this little brother opened his mouth to let the people of the world eat and wear warm clothes. I just want to know if this kind of boasting can be casually boasted?
Did he know how many commoners there were in the world? Do you know how much food and clothing these commoners need in a year?”
"Don't say anymore!"
Li Shi Min reprimanded again, his tone a little heavier than before.
Cheng Yaojin wanted to say something, but Fang Xuanling stopped him.
Then, Fang Xuanling stood up and cupped his fists at Zhao Yi in apology."Brother Zhao, I'm sorry. My family's guard is a straightforward person. If he has offended you in any way, please forgive him.
However, I also want to know what methods Brother Zhao has to feed and warm the people of the world.
If Brother Zhao doesn't mind, you might as well reveal a little.”
As soon as Fang Xuanling finished speaking, Li Shiming put down the teacup with a dark face. Because he used too much strength, the bottom of the teacup hit the table with a loud sound.
Fang Xuanling immediately lowered his head and didn't say anything.
"I'm really sorry, servants don't understand etiquette.”
Li Shiming said to Zhao Yi with a smile after teaching Old Hei and Old Fang a lesson.
However, the meaning of 'are you going to tell me or not' in his eyes was very strong.
After all, he was the emperor, and he was still a little domineering in his bones.
However, Zhao Yi ignored Old Li's inquisitive gaze.
He glanced at Old Li, then at Old Hei and Old Fang, who were playing the bad guy and the bad guy respectively.
His heart moved and he understood.
It seemed that Old Li had already discussed with the two servants in his residence and was prepared to sing a double act to get something out of him.
After seeing through it, Zhao Yi did not say anything. He looked at Old Li with a faint smile.
