Chapter 574: Re-establish the portal
Li Xinli knew very well that it was impossible for the head of the Li family of Zhao County to come up with so much money in front of him.
In other words, he would either give up some of the people of the Zhao County Li clan, or he would have to come up with more things.
Li Shidao was silent for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth: "Hou Ye Li, of course, you should set the price at this time, but this kind of bloody human life money, Hou Ye Li doesn't feel at ease when he earns it, right?" ”
"I'm so at peace."
Li Xin said with a smile: "The idea of the head of the Li family is biased, I shouldn't have saved more than 2,000 people in your family, so saving one is to make a merit, as for how many people died in your Li family, you are to blame, and I can't blame it." ”
The old man lowered his head and drank several sips of tea, and finally said silently: "Master Li, it is impossible for our family to come up with so much cash at once, but the old man has a lot of antiques and jade hidden in his house, and if the price is sold, it is enough to compensate for two million yuan in cash." ”
This is not surprising.
These Northern Zhou clans, just survived for thousands of years, in exchange for the next generation, they took out the things left by their ancestors, they can be sold as antiques, and these big families, on weekdays, love to collect rare treasures, they can come up with enough objects, it is not strange at all.
Li Xin said with a smile: "If these things are taken out and sold, it will inevitably be discounted, so that the head of the Li family will also hand over these property deeds in the capital to me, and this transaction will be completed." ”
Li Shidao looked up in astonishment.
"Didn't Master Hou say that these transactions would cause trouble?"
"It's going to get involved."
Li Xin smiled: "But Ben Hou has a way to turn them into serious ways." ”
"Whitewashing" these things, it is difficult for others, but it is very easy for Li Xin, as long as he treats these things as "stolen goods" and takes them to the emperor, he will say that they were seized when he broke Jincheng, and when the time comes, he can also get half of them with Emperor Taikang.
The emperor also has his own small wallet, and he will not hand these things into the household to charge the treasury, which still has a lot of room for maneuver.
Moreover, when Li Xin returned to Beijing, he was the biggest contributor to this Western Expedition, and the emperor would most likely reward him with all these things at that time.
Li Shidao didn't hesitate for long, then nodded.
"Now it's useless for the Li family to ask for these things, so they will be attached to Master Hou."
"Happy."
Li Xin clapped his hands and said with a smile: "In this way, starting tomorrow, the head of the Li family will start to send things to Hanzhou City, and Benhou will send a letter to Hanzhou and ask them to send someone to receive it." ”
"Hanzhou?"
Li Shidao frowned.
He thought that Li Xin wanted cash and wanted to bring it back to the capital.
The Marquis of Jing'an said as a matter of course: "It is Hanzhou, and it is also the place where you will stand in the future, and the person who is talking there now is my brother, I will greet him and let him take care of you." ”
"But I said in advance, and you can't enter the city until you pay all the money."
In Hanzhou City, Mu Ying can basically have the final say now, His Royal Highness Li Xing's voice has been weakened to the lowest point, if Mu Ying can get such a large sum of money and use it for military purposes, his prestige in Hanzhou will reach an unprecedented level.
Li Shidao stood up and arched his hand at Li Xin.
"Everything depends on the Hou Ye, but the old man still has one more thing to worry about the Hou Ye."
Li Xin took a big advantage, and now he is in a good mood, and he is also happy to do after-sales service, he said with a smile: "The head of the Li family said that Li Xin, who can do it, will not shirk." ”
Li Shidao pointed to Li Chengye, the boy behind him, bowed his head and said, "This doll is the grandson of the old man." ”
"I can see it."
Li Xin said with a smile: "He was born very handsome, and he has the appearance of the head of the Li family. ”
"The old man asked the marquis to take him to the capital."
Speaking of this, the old man took a deep breath, bowed his head and said, "It's best to worship under the Hou Ye and be a student for the Hou Ye." ”
Li Xin frowned slightly.
"What does this mean, old man, the Li family of Zhaojun has a history of learning, generations of Confucianism, and Li Xincai is shallow in learning, how can he be Li Gongzi's teacher?"
It's too troublesome to bring an oil bottle, not to mention that this kid has an identity of "anti-thief", which may be found out in the future, even if no one finds out this identity, it is a big trouble to bring a half-sized child.
Li Shidao got up and looked at Li Xin deeply.
"Master Hou, you also know in your heart that we, the Li family who have entered Hanzhou, at least for the next few generations, it will be difficult to produce any more characters."
"Only when you enter the capital can you have hope of getting ahead, this child will follow the Hou Ye into Beijing, and only then will he have the opportunity to re-establish the portal, so that although the Li family of Zhaojun is gone, there is still a branch in the world."
Most of the families are in this idea, betting on both sides, but the Zhao Jun Li clan has fallen a bit badly, and all the forces related to the Zhao Jun Li clan in the Great Jin Dynasty have basically been uprooted.
So this old man wanted to "borrow the corpse to return the soul" and pin the family's hopes on this little doll.
"The grandson of the old man is the most spiritual one among the children of the Li family, he has read poetry and books since he was a child, and he just begs the Hou Ye to give him a chance......
Li Xin was silent for a while, then looked at the boy standing behind Li Shidao, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Kid, how old are you?"
Li Chengye bowed generously to Li Xin, and then said, "Back to the teacher's words, the disciple is eight years old this year. ”
Li Xin was stunned.
This little bastard, why is he faceless and skinless?
He hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't shout, child, I haven't agreed yet." ”
Li Chengye was deeply stunned and did not speak.
Li Shidao continued: "Master Hou, you accept this child, and the Li family of Zhao County has another generous gift, which can be regarded as the Li family's apprenticeship to Hou Ye. ”
Li Xin blinked.
"How thick?"
Li Shidao gritted his teeth and said: "It will not be less than the Li family's industry in the capital." ”
Just now, the capital industries that Li Shidao gave to Li Xin, even if they are sold at a low price now, the total price will exceed 500,000 yuan, that is to say, this child's apprenticeship fee has reached a sky-high price!
"Then I'll keep this kid."
Li Xin said with a smile: "But let's say it first, just take it with you temporarily, whether you want to accept it as a disciple or not, you have to observe and observe." ”
When Li Chengye heard this, he knelt down again to salute Li Xin.
This little doll, who is only eight years old, is far from being as old as some children of the same age, and his eyes are flashing with aura, and he looks very smart.
Li Xin continued: "There is one more thing to tell the old gentleman in advance. ”
He pointed at Li Chengye and said indifferently: "This kid enters Beijing, his surname is Zhao, Qian and Sun, but he can't be surnamed Li no matter what, at least he can't be surnamed Li on the bright side." ”
Li Shidao's face changed suddenly.
What he wants is for the surname Li to be inherited in the capital, and if Li Chengye changes his surname, then even if he establishes a portal in the capital, it will be the Li family again.
"Master Hou, the old man asked him to enter Beijing, just to keep him with the Li family, if you don't let him be surnamed Li, then ......"
As soon as he wanted to continue talking, he heard the Marquis of Jing'an say indifferently: "If this child's surname is Li, he will die in less than a month after entering the capital." ”
Li Shidao frowned and said, "Why? ”
"Because his surname is Li, some people will think that he is Li Shen's son."
