"When you go to Zhang Caozhi, you can't say much as a father, I just hope that you are sensible, and don't pick quarrels and provoke trouble. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" Chai Shao stood with his hands in his hands, looking at Chai Lingwu with some melancholy, "Your brother's career is not without bumps, if it goes on like this, the Chai family will ......"

He paused and said, "Well, go ahead, and think about your mother." ”

Chai Lingwu, who lowered his head, blushed, and raised his head suddenly: "Do you want to learn from my brother's style, is it reasonable?" Zhang De is cunning and ruthless, I learn from him? Learn to hurt people! Now everyone in the city thinks he is a good person, and the adults have been deceived by him! ”

Chai Erlang shouted, thinking that Chai Shao would beat him, but he didn't expect his father to just sit on the chair helplessly, and then looked at himself even more helplessly.

"Your Excellency?"

Looking at his father with some apprehension, Chai Erlang felt as if he was stupid for a moment.

"If Zhang Caozhi is still twelve or thirteen years old, it's nothing to be a good person." Chai Shao recalled that in the year of the change, Zhang Gongjin recruited people from the Southern Sect of the Zhang clan in Jiangshui, and as a result, he recruited such a thing as Zhang De, and couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable, "It's been eight years, whether it's building skills or being a person, how can my father think he is a good person?" ”

Chai Lingwu was stunned.

"I have been fighting for my father for decades, and I don't know how many lives I have lost with your mother. But do you know how many people died at the hands of Zhang Caozhi in just a few years, in this world of great governance, in these peaceful years? ”

Chai Shao stared at his son and said earnestly, "The official position and wealth are floating clouds." The family has been illustrious for several generations, and he has collected five hundred years of romance, such as Qing Cui Bo Cui, but it is just a few years, and he is inextricably tossed upside down......"

The scorching Chai Sichang somewhat understood why his brother-in-law was so entangled, it was really a famous family that the Li Tang royal family couldn't pry, because of Zhang De's flapping of his little wings, Hebei Province and Henan Province were like a pot of porridge, you have me, I have you, but how to eat this pot of porridge and who will eat it, but it is not the famous family who has the final say.

The emperor should have been happy, otherwise he should have planned for more than ten years and decades, and then relied on the advantages of the imperial examination to overturn the Shandong scholar clan, who monopolized the talents, to the ground in one fell swoop. But inexplicably, because of steelmaking, because of wool, because of cement, because of rice paper...... Famous families are full of loopholes.

And in this process, Zhang Caozhi is only a wool, in Hedong and Hebei, I don't know how many people died directly or indirectly. Li Simo and Xue did not abandon their loyalty to the monarch or protect themselves, and Tiele and the Turks died on wool and leather, tens of thousands.

Chai Shao thinks that there are not so many lives in the hands of Rong Ma for decades.

"Remember, the Chai family is a royal in-law, and if you want to lose power, it's just a thought." Chai Shao looked at Chai Lingwu, "I've been to the Forbidden Garden for my father and visited your grandfather. Your grandfather is good at calculating, if he expected it to be true, Zhang Caozhi would really be a money cloth in the world now......"

"That ......"

"That's it!" Chai Shao waved his hand, "Being a father is not a rise in ambition, and the former Han Deng Tong is far inferior to him." Deng Tong was eighteen years old, but he had never entered the court three times. ”

Chai Lingwu twisted his neck: "Deng Tong is the emperor's male favorite!" Jiangyinzi is also for the prince to play! ”

“……”

Chai Shao, who was speechless, felt that he was farting just now, this son's self-esteem was far stronger than he imagined, and it was simply strong for no reason.

"That's all I say, tomorrow you will go to the west of the city and see Zhang Caozhi."

"Don't go!"

Chai Lingwu said hatefully, "My lord, am I still playing?" Chang'an to Luoyang's foot strength, I have my own entry, and I want to hold that Jiangyinzi! ”

"Ignorance." Chai Shao still scolded angrily, "The descendants of the brothers of Pharmacist Li Keshi have long been in charge of Henan Province's ...... Logistics. The SF Express is in Shandong, and it is directly taken from Denglai, and what you earn with this little money is just idle gold and silver in Chang'an and Chang'an, what can you do! ”

In this situation, Chai Lingwu just wanted to save face, and gritted his teeth there and persisted. But soon his face became shocked, and he only heard Chai Shao sigh: "Du Gou is in Denglai, and the Du family can make a profit of seven or eight hundred thousand yuan a year." Such an unthinkable thing, if it had been last year, the father would not have believed it. How much is the imperial court a year? For the expansion of the Taiji Palace, the internal funds could not be paid at the beginning, and the construction could only start after waiting for two years of taxes. ”

sighed with emotion, and looked at Chai Lingwu, who was speechless: "But now? The Forbidden Garden was expanded, and a Taoist temple was added to each square, and more than 90 were covered in two years. Not to mention the rebuilding of Luoyang Palace, Taiyuan also added a construction site, about Taiyuan Palace. And this Chenguang, the imperial court not only conquered Liao, but also expanded thousands of miles in Qinghai. As a subordinate of his father's right Xiaowei, he followed Li Ji to Qinghai, and all the private goods he brought with him were all in the account......"

The great aristocracy was generally not short of money, and their social status could be easily realized. But the problem is that Zhenguan's finances in the early years were bad, and foreign enemies were watching, so he basically wanted to cash in, that is, some land, and even the queen couldn't get together a complete set of silk brocade clothes.

And Chai Shao didn't dare to make a mistake because of his wife and father-in-law, he had no way to realize it himself, so he could only come forward by his son. After all, young people are allowed to make mistakes, but older ones, unless they are at the level of the Four Heavenly Kings, they have to be brazen in order to make a lot of money.

This is also why Chai Shao was helped by Li Yuan, and at the same time, he acquiesced to Chai Lingwu to use his own reputation and power to go to Luoyang to make money.

But what I never expected was that Chai Lingwu played a little too much, and he even provoked Zhang De.

If Zhang De was just an ordinary big businessman, then he would have taken it casually. It's a pity that the reason why Zhang De was able to rise to the top is that in addition to his own strength, Princess Zhang Gongjin Langya and the old friends who once fought in the autumn wind with Wang Shichong can be regarded as a small group and a small hill.

To Zhang Gongjin's promotion to the rank of alternate Heavenly King, and then in the two matters of Ping Turk and Liao Expedition, as long as he does not die early, it is very promising to take over the status of Chi Gong or Li Jing in the army.

And compared with Wei Chigong's private work and refusal to sell his body, Zhang Gongjin, who played with Princess Langya, is obviously more favored by His Majesty the Emperor.

"Impossible! Eight, 800,000! The Ministry of Civil Affairs only has a lot of money a year, and the rich households in Beijing are just a thousand pieces of property. It's simply ...... It is...... No way! ”

Chai Lingwu's eyes widened, and he felt that he might have been tricked by Zhang De. When he was in Luoyang, Zhang Dalang must have taken him as a fool. He made some money, bought and sold, and felt that there was a lot of furniture. Now it seems that it is simply ...... It's just stupid!

A cloud of anger rose in his heart, and Chai Erlang couldn't wait to kill Zhang De directly with a knife, but in this situation, he had a thousand ideas, but he could only wait for his own Lao Tzu's arrangement.

Chai Shao said it is not bad, Zhang Caozhi is not a good person, his heart is black when he should be black, and his hands are spicy when he should be hot, what is even more shocking is that the Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, I am afraid that there is only the level of Jiuqing; Among the nobles, perhaps only the duke's rank can perceive how terrifying Zhang De's income is in the East China Sea.

But everyone couldn't help but remain silent, so that the people in the capital just felt that Zhang Dalang had a way to make money, but where did they think that the wealth in this life was indeed rich and rivaled the country......

Grunt.

After swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Chai Lingwu sat aside a little dejectedly, and then said, "My lord, this ...... Your Majesty ......"

"Your Majesty may or may not know." Chai Shao thought about it, and still confided in a small piece of news, "The track between Jingluo and Luo, settled in one quarter, and most of it is transported to the internal treasury." ”

The point is stopped, and Chai Lingwu understands no matter how stupid he is. If the emperor wants to cash in, he can't be blatant, in theory, the Tang Dynasty still suppresses the merchants. If the Son of Heaven takes the lead in breaking the rules, it will form an irreparable statement of frustration, and this kind of small black spot is no weaker than an alliance with Jieli.

And nominally speaking, the Jingluo plate rail is a project for the benefit of the people, although Luoyang has not been officially set as the capital, but the historical inertia makes the people think that this place is the capital level. Through this track, the people of the two capitals have greatly saved the cost of circulation and accelerated exchanges.

No matter how many ulterior x-eye transactions there are behind it, at least in name, this is a "moral policy" of the Zhenguan Dynasty.

After listening to Lao Tzu's words, Chai Lingwu seemed to be shocked in his soul, and finally realized that he and Zhang Caozhi had never been on the same level.

"Got it?"

Chai Shao breathed a sigh of relief, what he pondered in his heart was that Chai Zhewei would go a little further in his career. And this son, there is definitely no economic talent, but if he can show up for the Chai family to earn income, then the Chai family will successfully pass the risk period of thirty or fifty years, which can be regarded as passing.

The emperor has never been reliable, Chai Shao understands this, and if he wants to save himself, he can only say that he will integrate into the "upstart" in the future as much as possible.

Based on the edification he received from Li Yuan, of course he judged that the Zhongyi Society headed by Zhang De would back Li Chengqian, and the position of the prince would be stable even if it was unstable.

As long as it is integrated, then after the new monarch ascends the throne, he will not look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, and he will not liquidate a family that has no political power because of the historical legacy of the previous dynasty, right?
