Chapter 221: Everything Has Two Sides?
"Don't cover up for those two stinky boys, huh! Some of them are working hard to clean up those two guys. Well...... The teacher has already sent a letter to the Son of Heaven, and in a few days, presumably the will of the Son of Heaven will come to Lanting. In your opinion, who among the officials of the Lanting Pavilion can take the place of my brother Simon? After putting down the teacup, he gently twisted the Buddha beads, and the dream of the abbot's eyes flashed brightly.
"The disciple felt that Hu Junwei was not a wrong candidate. When Ximen County was not in Lanting, he did a good job. Jianyin pondered for a long time, and replied as a matter of course.
“…… He, well, since that's the case, then so be it, another day, for the division will send a letter to inform Your Majesty. By the way, what about that Wang Sima? ”
"The disciple just arrived late last night with the news that the court is preparing to deal with Wang Sima is to cut his post to the people, and the whole family will be distributed for three thousand miles." Jianyin replied in a deep voice. "Please also ask the master to consider it, if there is anything wrong, the disciple should also believe it."
The abbot of the dream thought about it, nodded and said lightly. "Well, it's okay, so be it. Although he has not asked about political affairs for many years, that guy is really no one in my Lanting, if he doesn't deal with it seriously, he is afraid that in this world, he really forgot that there is such a person as Lao Qu. ”
"What kind of person are you, Master, and who in the world dares to disrespect you?" Jianyin shook his head with a smile and said.
"Humph! There are more people who don't respect their teachers, your little junior brother, and the evil obstacle of Ximen Dongliang, I can't get angry when I think of those two guys as teachers. The dream abbot Fang laughed proudly twice, and then snorted with a blue face.
"......" Jianyin can only be speechless.

"Brother Xian, don't you hurry up, you are also a dignified man, and it is not the first time you have come to this Yixiang Pavilion...... How to walk and twist and twist, is it for the sake of makeup virgins. Will you take the red envelope from those young ladies for a while? Duan Shaojun turned around impatiently and shouted at Li Xuan, who was following behind his ass obscenely.
"I'm talking brother. You can't be so vicious when you speak, can you? The little brother just felt ......" Li Xuan glanced back with reverence. After making sure that the two inseparable bodyguards were left in the hospital hall by him today, he did not follow them, so he turned his face and said helplessly. "Don't you think our identity is actually going to the Qinglou to sell that thing, what's the matter?"
"Yo ho...... I said, Brother Xian, what do you mean by that? Duan Shaojun's face couldn't help but change. Our brothers have said that in the business of Chinese patent medicine, everything must be advanced and retreated together, let's talk about it. Now Miss Xu has invested 5,000 taels of silver, but what about us? Now I don't even earn a hundred taels. I'm embarrassed to take money from others......"
"Five thousand taels, only thirty percent, where can you find such a good thing? Don't you want us to expand reproduction as soon as possible? Duan Shaojun's endless saliva kept pouring on Li Xuan, the unlucky prince, all over his face.
"Okay, let's not talk about it, can't I go, isn't it just a trip to the Qinglou to sell aphrodisiacs? What's the big deal, it's a big deal...... This son no longer comes to Jiangnan. Li Xuan, who was dizzy by Duan Shaojun's words, could only accept this reality bitterly.
"That's it, I'm afraid of wool, now. Our medicine is still not well-known, so naturally we need to sell it ourselves. When we win word of mouth, at that time, it will not be that we are begging them to buy it, but that they are begging us to sell it, do you know? Duan Shaojun patted Li Xuan's shoulder with great satisfaction, very good, this prince, the dignified prince of Jin, has begun to be influenced by his advanced ideological concepts and economic acumen.
"Businessmen, what is a businessman, that is, for the sake of ten percent profit, they will try to take advantage of the loopholes to do business; With 20 percent of the profits, they will act recklessly, even taking risks; And when they have 100% profits, they even dare to trample on the laws of the world; And if there are 300 percent, they will dare to commit any crime, not even death will threaten them......"
"Aren't those merchants the most unstable and dangerous class of people in the world, then?" Li Xuan was deeply shocked by Duan Shaojun's words, in his impression, the businessman could not say how bad, but not how good. After all, he is a high-ranking prince, where will he come into contact with those peddlers and pawns, even if he is a rich businessman, if he wants to deal with a prince, it is impossible.
"This is natural, just like those merchants in our Lanting City, some merchants, in order to make a fortune after the disaster, directly increased the price of grain by five times, or even ten times. If it weren't for the government's effective control, I'm afraid that even the situation of the people of Lanting would be much better than those children. Duan Shaojun nodded, and said with deep understanding.
"No wonder in ancient times, it seems to be very reasonable to value agriculture and lowly merchants." Li Xuanshen nodded approvingly and then sighed.
"Heavy peasant and lowly merchants, do you think it's useful?" Duan Shaojun shook his head disapprovingly, and snorted at Li Xuan's words.
"Brother, you don't seem to think this method works?" Li Xuan took steps, trying to keep up with Duan Shaojun's footsteps, and asked as he asked.
"Of course not, think about it, if there are really no merchants, can Datang still be so rich?" Duan Shaojun asked rhetorically without looking back. "The Lingluo silk on your body was bought with money, right? And then tailor-made clothes also cost money? I lack deer antler velvet and ginseng in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is still a merchant who came from the north with great difficulty. If the whole Tang Dynasty really treats businessmen as enemies with eyes, at that time, will we just go shopping on the streets with bare butts? Without medicinal herbs, I can only lie on the couch and roll my eyes when I am sick......"
"Stop, brother, you stop first." Li Xuan rubbed his numb face and looked at Duan Shaojun in confusion. "Since you said that businessmen are not good, but you also told your junior brother that businessmen have a lot of benefits for Datang, isn't this too contradictory?"
"You're wrong again, boy." Duan Shaojun paused helplessly, looking at the young man who was so fooled by his own Tao Tao Xiong that the CPU was about to crash due to overheating, and smiled.
"I, why am I wrong again?" Li Xuanzhen had the urge to hit his head against the pillar to wake up, why did he say everything, but he was wrong.
"That's because...... Rich? Take it out. Duan Shaojun thought for a moment, stretched out his hand and hooked his finger at Li Xuan.
Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, and twisted his hand to cover the money bag on his waist. "Brother, what are you doing too, aren't you? Doesn't the younger brother ask you a question, you are not a fortune teller, why do you still collect money? ”
"You...... Brother, am I the kind of liar who gives people hyphenation and fortune-telling to fool other people's money? Duan Shaojun's eyes darkened, and he couldn't help but glared at this guy with a black line, and said angrily. I'm asking you for a copper coin so that I can explain to you about Shang Jia, do you understand? ”
"Oh...... Hehe, I'm sorry, the little brother blames the brother, this is for you. Li Xuan laughed embarrassedly, opened the money bag, and took out a copper coin and placed it in Duan Shaojun's palm. I also asked my brother to use this copper coin to explain the matter of Shang Jia to my younger brother. ”
#####
"Okay, come and see, it's a copper coin, right?" Duan Shaojun picked up the copper plate that had been rubbed brightly yellow, threw it in his hand, and shook it at Li Xuan.
"I think it's a copper coin." Li Xuan seemed to have met an audience like a magician who knew how to do it, and after looking at it very seriously for a long time, he was sure of the authenticity.
"Then take a look at this copper coin and see what the difference is between the front and the back." Duan Shaojun continued.
Li Xuan looked at it very seriously again and shook his head. "It makes no difference."
"Good...... Well? Duan Shaojun got the answer to the question, and couldn't help but be stunned, and took the copper coin to take a closer look. It is actually engraved with the same words on the front and back, and the four big characters of Jianyuan Tongbao are written on it. Duan Shaojun was directly forced to ...... Suddenly, a hundred grass and mud horses got up and rushed by.
"What's wrong? Is there anything wrong? Li Xuan asked curiously.
"No, I mean, take a closer look at this copper coin...... By the way, look at this side, there is a gap in the treasure word of this Tongbao, and there is no gap in the treasure word on this side, right? ”
"Brother, your eyes are sharp enough, and you can find such a small shortcoming." Li Xuan looked at it and said with sincere admiration. (To be continued......)
