Chapter 261: The Feast
Chapter 261 Qin Huaidao's grandfather arrived at Liu Pingzhong's mansion, and under the leadership of Mrs. Liu Pingzhong, he began to visit this house.
"Daddy, this house was chosen by Peping for us, it is very cost-effective, it has risen by more than 500 yuan in less than a month after it was bought, and it is also very large.
On this side of the capital, it is already great to be able to have such a big house, and it all depends on Peping's help. Liu Pingzhong's wife said to the old man who was looking at the house.
"Well, this time Pingzhong can be promoted, I heard that Hu Guogong helped?" The old man stood there, looking at the house and speaking.
"Yes, I was directly arranged to the household department, I thought that there was no hope for promotion, and I didn't know where to transfer to, but I didn't expect that Peping took the master and went directly to the household department, and talked directly with the household department.
The household department left a place for the master, and at the same time handed over the promotion list of the master, and His Majesty approved it. Mrs. Liu Pingzhong nodded with a smile and said, this matter is a great joy for them, and it is the long-cherished wish of their husband and wife to be able to stay in the capital.
"Well, what does Pepin say about filial piety and filial piety?" The old man continued to ask, and Liu Xiaoliang and Liu Xiaoyi immediately looked at their mother-in-law and asked.
"It was said that they wanted them to take the Enke exam, but if they didn't pass the exam, the court would pay attention to Enke's talent in the future, rather than recommending it, so the talents who Enke took will also be reused. Pepin hopes that the two of them can be admitted. Mrs. Liu Pingzhong explained to the old man with a smile,
In fact, Liu Pingzhong told her about this matter, but he also told her that he was not allowed to tell their two sons, for fear that they would not be able to study well after learning the news.
"Oh, that's right, too, the court must have come in through the right way. Xiaoli, during this time, you also have to prepare to read books to see if Enke can be admitted. The old man turned his head to Liu Xiaoli and explained.
"Yes, Grandpa!" Liu Xiaoli immediately clasped his fists and said.
And at this moment, on Qin Huaidao's side, the house is not lively, Qin Huaidao accompanies those princes and those family heads, sitting in the living room, and the others are distributed in other wings.
"Come, try this tea, this tea, but it was also made by Pepin, he is also very careful about the study of eating this piece, you can see those snacks, those juices, and these teas, meals, are all researched by this kid." Li Shimin beckoned the heads of the family to drink tea, he finished drinking it himself, and ate it with the things on the table.
"Yes, I've heard of it!" The head of the Qinghe Cui clan nodded with a smile.
"However, we are impressed by Pepin's ability to make money, such as the paper mill and the printing factory, as well as the liquor factory, which are all businesses with tens of thousands of dollars of profit a year, and it seems that there is more than that, in the future, I don't know if there is a chance to cooperate with Peping?" The head of the Taiyuan Wang clan looked at Qin Huaidao with a smile and asked.
"Yes, of course, on the side of the distillery, your family is also involved, our liquor, but it was handed over to your merchants to buy, in the future, there is actually a lot of business to do, mainly because I am too busy." Qin Huaidao nodded very affirmatively and said.
"Oh, really?" When they heard it, they all looked at Qin Huaidao in surprise.
"Yes, it is also a business with a profit of more than 100,000 yuan, everyone can rest assured. When the time comes, I'll come to you and talk! Qin Huaidao still smiled and nodded affirmatively.
"I don't care, I want to join the gang!" Li Shimin suddenly picked up. The other heads of the family also turned their heads to look at him.
"Do you know what he did, make more money, the winery thing, I regret it, a year, a hundred thousand yuan, you think about it, if it is distributed according to the profits of the paper mill, I can get fifty or sixty thousand yuan a year, I am now in the palace, it takes a lot of money to repair, no money." Li Shimin looked at the heads of the family with a smile and said,
When those family owners heard it, they all laughed, in fact, Li Shimin did it on purpose, after all, those families have now adopted a cooperative attitude, then, Qin Huaidao has business here, Li Shimin has a shareholding, and those families can rest assured that they are not, when the time comes, everyone will make money, and the officials of the family should not make trouble in the court, it will be fine.
Of course, Qin Huaidao understood what Li Shimin meant, and hurriedly said okay.
After a while, the housekeeper arrived at Qin Huaidao's side and asked Qin Huaidao if it was time to have a banquet.
When Qin Huaidao heard this, he stood up and said to Li Shimin, "Your Majesty, is it okay to have a banquet?" ”
"Open, open, open when you're ready, they're all waiting for your meal!" Li Shimin said happily.
"Yes, it's a feast!" Qin Huaidao bowed his hand to Li Shimin, and then said, and the housekeeper came out immediately,
Then, I saw that from the side of the Qinhuai Dao Mansion, a large number of family members came out with steamers, those steamers were carried to the table, opened, and they were full of vegetables, and the family Ding began to serve them with the dishes, and the speed was very fast.
After a while, Li Shimin's table was all on the table, and those heads of the family, looking at those meals, were simply looking straight at them.
"Haha, haven't seen it, have you? To be honest, there are some dishes that I have never seen before, and I have never seen such dishes last time I came here to eat! Li Shimin was very proud to see them so surprised.
"Tut-tut, if such a meal is released, those restaurants in the capital can still have business?" The head of the Du family said with a sigh in his mouth.
"Well, someone suggested that this kid go and open one, but this kid said that he was busy, he didn't go, and he looked down on such a small amount of money!" Li Shimin said to Qin Huaidao, who was sitting below.
"Hehe, make this money, it's not enough to worry about. If you want to earn, you will make a lot of money. Qin Huaidao also said with a smile, he said that he made a lot of money, but no one would doubt that he had this ability.
Then it was naturally Li Shimin who spoke, and then everyone let go of eating and drinking, those dishes, after eating, the family will continue to add, the whole banquet, from the opening to the dismissal, almost an hour and a half, if not too many people drank too much, it is estimated that they can still eat,
At this time, those family members in Qin Huaidao's mansion all helped those guests to go to the courtyard of the mansion to rest.
And Qin Huaidao was also with Li Shimin and Li Chengqian, and when they arrived at the study, outside the study, Li Shimin's guards were staring.
"Come, Your Majesty, drink tea, sober up!" Qin Huaidao poured tea for Li Shimin and put it in front of Li Shimin.
"Well, well, I didn't drink much wine today, I ate a lot of food, and the same goes for other family owners, Pepin, thank you for this matter, if it weren't for you, they wouldn't have come to me to surrender." Li Shimin said with a smile at Qin Huaidao.
"Hehe, Your Majesty, we can divide the money and land!" Qin Huaidao said with a smile, the meaning is also very simple, you have already appreciated it, so there is no need to say it.
"You kid, such a little land, so much money? Are you content? Li Shimin smiled and pointed at Qin Huaidao and asked.
"Contentment, really contentment, in fact, I am content with everything now!" Qin Huaidao nodded very affirmatively and said.
"Well, to tell you the truth, I heard it, you're just too lazy, you have to get by, this can't work, a manly man, you need to do something." Li Shimin pointed to Qin Huaidao and taught.
"Yes, Your Majesty said so!" Qin Huaidao smiled and nodded.
"Father, in fact, Peping is very good like this, haven't you noticed that he is making money while playing, and at the same time he is doing things, this is ability!" Li Chengqian also looked at Li Shimin with a smile at this moment and said.
"Oh?" Li Shimin heard it, thought for a while, and then said with a smile: "It's really true! ”
"Hehe, Your Highness has won the award, how can it be so powerful!" Qin Huaidao said with a smile and waved his hand.
"However, this time the family really surrendered, and also recognized this trend, so ah, next, the affairs of the court, it is much easier to do, I should open Enke Kaienke, but those talents taken by Kaienke need to be exercised more,
Moreover, after opening Enke, the first few times, the people of the family also need to take according to a certain proportion! Li Shimin said to Qin Huaidao, and Qin Huaidao nodded.
"In addition, after a while, each family will select a woman to send to your East Palace, as your concubine, those concubines, you should not be left out in the cold, of course, and the crown princess must also be clear!" Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian and said.
"Ah, they agreed to marry?" Qin Huaidao looked at Li Shimin in shock and asked,
Li Shimin heard it and nodded, there was a time before the family looked down on Li Shimin, but they didn't agree to marry the royal family, Li Shimin's daughters couldn't marry into the family, and the daughters of the family wouldn't come to the royal family.
Of course, Wei Guifei was not brought back by Li Shimin himself, but arranged by Li Yuan to Li Shimin, and the relationship between Li Yuan and other families was very good at that time.
"That's good, that's good!" Qin Huaidao was relieved a lot when he heard it, as long as they got married, it meant that they had really surrendered.
"Well, it's a pity that I don't have a few daughters who are not married, but, yes, I also have to consider whether to marry them." Li Shimin looked at Qin Huaidao with a smile and said, Qin Huaidao also laughed,
Of course Qin Huaidao knew what he meant, letting them surrender now is also a delaying tactic, what will happen in the future, no one knows, anyway, in Li Shimin's opinion, the family, even if it does not die, must withdraw from the court, so that Li Shimin can be completely relieved.
"Peping, for the next period of time, don't stimulate them, just endure it for a few years, and then talk about it when I have laid out the situation!" At this moment, Li Shimin confessed to Qin Huaidao again,
Qin Huaidao nodded, he was not stupid, he also stimulated the nerves of those families, it was good to be able to negotiate now, let them think about themselves every day, and they couldn't stand it.
