Chapter 15 What about being a mallet(1/2)

After announcing the decree, the burly middle-aged man came out of the main hall and walked up to Yang Fan and others.

"You are Wannian County Bo Yang Fan..."

I have the slightest bit of curiosity about this young man that His Majesty is quite fond of.

After all, as the leader of Baiqi, he is not just a cat or a dog who deals with such trivial matters.

But Li Er sent him here, how could he not be curious.

Yang Fan nodded and looked at the general, who had a mighty physique and extraordinary bearing, but always had a coffin face, and said:

"Thank you for your help, General. You are exactly that. I don't know the general's name. How should I call him?"

The burly middle-aged man looked cold, unfazed by honor and disgrace, like a machine.

"A certain person named Li Junxian has won the trust of His Majesty and has been appointed as the Commander-in-Chief of the Hundred Cavalry."

Yang Fan was shocked after hearing this. Isn't Baiqi equivalent to the secret service agency of later generations?

This is an organization that only takes orders from Li Er and has great power.

Unexpectedly, hundreds of cavalry were dispatched for this commotion.

But, Li Junxian? This name is so familiar.

Damn it

Isn't this a character played by Zhao Wenzhuo?

In the movie, he is entangled with Wu Zetian in his palace, and it tells the story of his platonic love run with Wu Zetian.

At that time, I felt that this drama was ridiculous, so I went to check the historical records.

It turns out that Li Junxian and Wu Zetian have nothing to do with each other, so there can be no such bloody plot.

The reason why there is that kind of plot is just a scene that the director deliberately added in order to win the audience's attention.

Um……

It is wrong to say that he has no relationship with Wu Zetian at all. After all, Li Junxian has shouldered the thunder for Wu Zetian.

In Li Er's later years, the prophecy of the heroine King Wu spread again. In order to stabilize Li Tang's empire, Li Er went on a large scale to hunt down and kill people related to the prophecy.

At that time, Li Junxian had been granted the title of Duke of Wulian County. He also had a female nickname, Wu Niangzi.

Therefore, he took up all the words in the rumor.

So Li Er issued an imperial edict to confiscate his home and exterminate his clan. Before Li Junxian could realize what he had done wrong, the guy who was eating was gone.

When Li Er turned his attention to Li Junxian, Wu Zetian was lucky enough to escape.

Therefore, after Wu Zetian ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, he suppressed the rebellion for Li Junxian.

But Li Junxian, the nine tribesmen who had been wronged, had already been killed by Li Er, so there was no point in rehabilitating him!

Therefore, Li Junxian can be regarded as a man who "dedicated himself" to Wu Zetian.

Looking at the burly middle-aged man in front of him, Yang Fan really wanted to laugh. Why do you think that a straight man like this is using a woman's nickname?

Isn’t this making yourself uncomfortable?

For the sake of helping me today, if I have the ability in the future, I will save his life too!

Thinking of this, he chuckled, cupped his fists and said:

"It turns out to be General Li. I have admired him for a long time."



At dusk, Yang Fan dragged his somewhat tired body back to Baishui Village.

Cheng Chumo did not follow him. After all, he was seriously injured and had to go home for treatment.

Entering the main hall, Yang Fan was a little surprised to see that Cheng Yaojin had not left and was chatting animatedly with Li Shi.

"Uncle Cheng, what were you and Lao Li talking about?"

"Haha... these are all old things from the past."

"You have all known each other before?"

"Of course, Lao Li, we also fought together."

These words made Lao Li look proud, and he kept winking at Yang Fan, as if to say, you know how good I am, come and praise me, please me.

Regarding the behavior of a child like Lao Li, Yang Fan rolled his eyes and ignored it.

"By the way, Uncle Cheng hasn't left yet, which means that he came here today for more than just reading the imperial edict to me!"

Hearing Yang Fan's question, Cheng Yaojin and Li Shimin looked at each other and looked at the standing guards.

The guards understood and left immediately, blocking the passage into the main hall.

At this time, Cheng Yaojin's face became solemn and he said:

"My good nephew must keep what I said today a secret, otherwise his life will be in danger and his family will be hurt..."

Seeing that Cheng Yaojin said so carefully, Yang Fan nodded seriously and looked at Lao Li.

Of course Cheng Yaojin knew what Yang Fan meant, so he had no choice but to explain:

"Lao Li is my brother through life and death. He is trustworthy and he is also his representative. After saying this, he pointed to the sky."

Li Shimin nodded. He knew that Cheng Yaojin said this to help him conceal his identity.

He glanced at Lao Li in surprise, not expecting that he had such a big background.

It made Yang Fan a little interested in his identity.

Although there are many members of the royal family, there should not be many who have the ability to act on behalf of Li Er in the outside world.

Historically, I have no memory of people named Li Shi.

But he never expected that the person sitting in front of him was Li Shimin himself.

Just as Yang Fan was thinking wildly, Cheng Yaojin continued:

"I came here mainly to discuss cooperation in the sales of colored glaze."

Although my nephew may be a little dissatisfied and thinks that Lao Cheng is buying and selling by force, I will apologize to you first.

In fact, this is also for the good of my nephew.

Today, it seems that the world is peaceful and the people live and work in peace and contentment, but this is not the case.

Counting from the time Emperor Gaozu proclaimed himself emperor, the Tang Dynasty was only founded for a short period of more than ten years. Both the remnants of the previous dynasty and foreign forces were eyeing it.

Especially in the Tang Dynasty, there are many aristocratic families, and many of their children serve as officials in the court. Moreover, these aristocratic families are as rich as the country and extremely powerful. Today, your majesty also has to show courtesy.

As the saying goes, a big tree attracts wind. It is actually very dangerous to manage Liuli without the strength.

Once you are targeted by a noble family, you will be in endless trouble and even risk your life.

Only then did a certain person ask Chu Mo to come over and recommend himself to cooperate in the sale of colored glaze.

In this cooperation, I only account for 10%, and the remaining 50% belongs to the Tian family. In order to express sincerity, His Majesty overcame all opinions and promoted your title to one more level, and even rewarded you with two thousand acres of land.

After all, if it was just for his contribution to preventing smallpox, he would not be awarded the title of county magistrate.

After the cooperation, manpower, stores, and sales channels will be provided by X, and the glass will be supplied by you.

Even if the aristocratic family was jealous and had His Majesty's backing, they would not dare to openly rob it in a big way.

In fact, Yang Fan understood all these principles, but he just felt a little unhappy that he, a time traveler, was being plotted by the ancients without even saying hello.

To put it bluntly, it was self-esteem that was at work. After visiting Duke Ying's mansion during the day, I clearly realized my shortcomings.

Now that Cheng Yaojin has come to explain it in person, there is nothing to worry about.

What's more, with the Royal brand, Liuli's business will definitely look more advanced.

From the establishment of the glass factory, the location of the shop, the staffing, and the sales channels, the three of them discussed it one by one.

Seeing Yang Fan talking eloquently, Li Shimin, who was originally feeling a little depressed because of wiping his butt, suddenly beamed.

With the income from Liuli and the money in the internal treasury, I can finally renovate my old palace and even start to imagine my beautiful future YY life.

After all, Li Er has had a hard time these years!

Either indemnities, natural disasters, or wars, the treasury's money is all spent before the end of the year.

In many cases, money has to be taken from the internal treasury to subsidize the national treasury.

Now the inner treasury is so poor that it can almost run a horse race.

Now that he finally has a good income, how can he not be happy?

Although there is a suspicion that he is being used as a backbone, what is this compared to money?

What's more, this happens to be an opportunity to check and balance and weaken the family.

Glaze is a high-end product that ordinary people cannot afford. Most of the consumers are aristocratic families, nobles, and businessmen.

Of course he would be happy to have the family's money in his pocket.
To be continued...
