Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Li Min had always disliked Changsun Wuji. It was because he felt an unspeakable threat from him that he had to think of ways to enhance his own strength in order to protect himself.  I never expected that I would embark on such a path of no return.

    In addition, Li Min has just realized the pity of his sister, Princess Changle. Although this situation is not entirely caused by Changsun Wuji, the other party must also bear a certain responsibility, so when he heard that the other party wanted to see him, he also obviously showed off  The expression of an elder made Li Min feel very unhappy.

    It is out of this mentality that after listening to Changsun Chong's words, Li Min glanced at him lightly, and then said with a smile: "Uncle, I invite you, and Li Min will go by himself, but I am in a hurry today."  , I really can¡¯t separate myself, so I asked my cousin to tell my uncle that Li Min will come to apologize someday!¡±

    After Li Min finished speaking, he immediately turned around and left without waiting for Chang Sun Chong's reply, without any hesitation.  This caught Changsun Chong a little off guard. After all, as his father, he had never invited anyone and been rejected by the other party. Even if Changsun Wuji invited His Majesty the Emperor, the other party would usually condescend to come. Unexpectedly, Li Min would  He refused without hesitation.

    Li Min sneered as he walked away. He knew very well what Changsun Wuji wanted to do when he saw him, but he had already escaped from it and really didn't want to deal with that kind of nonsense anymore. Moreover, with Li Min's strength, there was no need to give him anything.  A person like Changsun Wuji has a good face, so this time he is trying to give the other party a blow, so that Changsun Wuji will know that he is no longer the lonely King of Liang that he was before.

    Look at Li Min¡¯s background.  Changsun Chong didn't know whether he should call the other party to stop him?  But in the end, he gritted his teeth, turned around and reported to his father. After all, he really couldn't make up his mind about this kind of thing.

    But when Li Min walked out of the gate of Princess Changle's Mansion, he saw a scene that he had expected.  I saw Changsun Wuji riding a bay-red horse. Maybe he ran too fast when he was riding the horse. Now his chest was still rising and falling violently, and his face had a cold look.  The eyes looking at Li Min were also full of anger.

    "My uncle's movements are so fast! He is indeed the man who followed my father to conquer the world!" Li Min said with an angry smile that would cost his life.  He had already guessed that Changsun Wuji would not give up if he did not see him today, so he was not surprised at all when he saw the other party coming on horseback.

    "Humph. Everyone says that although King Qi is smart, he is very stingy and vengeful. Today I finally learned the lesson!" With Changsun Wuji's intelligence.  Who wouldn't understand the meaning of Li Min's move? It's just that he had targeted Li Min many times before. Now that the situation has reversed, it's appropriate for the other party to give him some color. However, he is also an arrogant person and was teased like this by a junior.  This made Changsun Wuji a little angry.

    "Hahaha~, I, Li Min, do hold grudges very much, but the ones I hold grudges against are all those who have offended me, unlike some people. Others clearly didn't offend him, but he still wants to have trouble with others.  It¡¯s really confusing!¡± Li Min was also rude and returned all the anger he had received from Changsun Wuji back to him.

    Changsun Wuji wanted to ask Li Min for something today, and he really didn¡¯t want to quarrel with him.  In addition, he was indeed somewhat unreasonable, so after hearing this, he snorted coldly, turned his head and said no more.

    Although Li Min was stingy, she was not an unreasonable shrew, so when she saw that the other party was no longer listening to her words, she immediately showed a victorious smile.  He asked the guard to lead his horse, turned over and rode on it, then glanced at Changsun Wuji who was sulking, and said with a smile: "Uncle, how about we go to Dongshi for some fun?"

    Although Li Min seemed to be asking for Changsun Wuji's opinion, after he said it, Tima walked towards Dongshi without caring whether the other party agreed.  Changsun Wuji looked at Li Min's figure and his teeth itched with hatred, but he had to follow him. After all, his personal gains and losses were nothing compared to the major events to be discussed today.

    There used to be a saying in Chang'an that it was called East Guizhou and Xiquan. The so-called East and West refer to the east and west cities, and Gui and Quan refer to the characteristics of the two cities. Most of the people living near the East City are wealthy and aristocratic, and their consumption  The level is extremely high, so Dongshi mainly deals in luxury goods.  Because the West Market is close to the Silk Road, the products sold here are very complete. Not only the local products of the Tang Dynasty, but also many various products from Central Asia, Tianzhu, Persia and other places. It can be said that as long as you can think of the products,  Almost everyone sells it here.

    However, the phrase "East, Gui, and West" is already outdated now. Not only are the East and West markets many times more prosperous than before, but the types of goods are also more complete. However, most of the merchants in the West Market are still those who followed the Silk Road.  , while the East Market is mainly populated by businessmen who go to Dengzhou to go overseas.

    In fact, Li Min has only been involved in the development of a few key industries, such as coal, cement, and food.?Processing, etc., but as the saying goes, one industry prospers and all industries prosper, and all industries are related. In fact, everyone understands this, so there is no need to say more.  With this prosperity of all industries, more and more people have joined industry and commerce, and their income has also increased a lot. With income, consumption will be further stimulated and the demand for industrial and commercial products will be increased. In this way,  A virtuous cycle is formed, and the capital chain flows faster and faster in everyone's hands. The original social wealth may not have increased much, but everyone will feel that the wealth in their hands is much more than before.

    The New Year is coming soon, and ordinary people have a lot more money in their hands than in previous years, so they naturally want to have a good year and rush to the largest market nearby to buy New Year goods. This is especially true for people in Chang'an and surrounding areas, so now  In the east and west markets, there is a scene of rubbing shoulders from morning to night.

    Li Min is in front, Changsun Wuji is behind, and there are many guards beside him.  At first, Li Min felt very interesting when he saw the lively scene in the East Market. After all, he had been back in Chang'an for so long and never had the chance to hang out like this. Compared with more than a year ago, the East Market was much more lively.  .

    However, the closer they got to the city center, the more pedestrians were on the road. Although the two of them had guards to clear the way, it was still a little difficult. They happened to be near Dengxian Tower, next to the largest Linxian Teahouse in Chang'an. They were not eating now.  time, so Li Min and the others went directly into the teahouse, went up to the second floor and asked for a private room facing the street.

    In the elegant room, Li Min sat by the window, took a sip of the top-quality Longjing tea in his hand, and then glanced at the bustling crowd below, feeling a sense of accomplishment.  Just one East Market has become so prosperous. From here, we can see the results of our own promotion of industrial and commercial development in the past two years.

    "Uncle, what can you see from the crowd below?" Li Min was not only proud of himself, but also wanted to hear the praise of his old enemy, Changsun Wuji.

    How could Changsun Wuji not understand what Li Min meant? It¡¯s just that he couldn¡¯t stand the way a villain like Li Min got his way, so he deliberately answered the question inappropriately: ¡°Humph! The bustling is nothing more than fame and fortune!¡±

    After hearing this, Li Min was stunned for a moment before he realized what he was doing. He also secretly resented it in his heart. However, he was very thoughtful and suddenly showed a smile and asked: "What a name and fortune. According to Tai Shigong, almost all people in the world are interested in fame."  I live for profit, but I don¡¯t know, uncle, are you doing it for fame or profit?¡±

    Li Min¡¯s question is extremely difficult to answer, because whether it is for fame or profit, it will tarnish his reputation.  However, Changsun Wuji was not an ordinary person. After looking at Li Min indifferently, he said slowly: "I have followed your Majesty for decades and devoted myself to assisting you. Therefore, whatever your Majesty pursues, I will also pursue.  Your Highness is His Majesty¡¯s favorite son, and I must be very clear about His Majesty¡¯s pursuit, so I would like to ask His Majesty for some advice!¡±

    What does it mean to be an old fox? The Changsun Wuji in front of him is like this. If Li Min wants to play an intellectual game with this kind of person, the winning rate is hardly even 1%.  Li Min was turned back by the opponent, and the difficult questions he threw back were thrown back, and he couldn't answer them at all, so his face was a little embarrassed for a while.

    However, Li Min's face had reached a level that was thicker than invisible, so he quickly returned to normal, and did not answer the other party's words. Instead, he directly asked the question that the other party wanted to hear most: "Uncle stopped Li Min today, thinking there must be something wrong."  Do you have something important to say?¡±

    Seeing that Li Min was finally willing to talk about business, Changsun Wuji finally breathed a sigh of relief. Faced with Li Min, a rising star in the fox's den, he also felt a pressure, so he wanted to finish talking about business and leave quickly.  However, the other party has never given him a chance, and now he can finally tell the big story that he has been planning for a long time.

    Thinking of this, Changsun Wuji showed an expression of relief on his face, sorted out his thoughts, and then said: "King Qi, you are also a smart man, so I won't talk nonsense anymore. The prince has a disabled leg, and his personality is getting worse.  You are surly. With your Majesty's temper, he will definitely be easy to retain in the future. Originally, you had the best hope for this position, but after you gave up the succession to the throne, among the remaining princes, the only one is King Wei"

    When Changsun Wuji mentioned Li Tai, his brows suddenly wrinkled, and a look of disgust appeared on his face. Although they were both close nephews, compared to Li Chengqian or Li Zhi, he disliked Li Tai the most. Of course, Li Tai  Don't like him either.  In addition, Changsun Wuji also knew clearly that with Li Tai's arrogant, pedantic and even naive character, he was not the best candidate to inherit the throne at all.

    Li Min saw Changsun Wuji's expression when he mentioned Li Tai, and immediately understood what the other party meant. In fact, half of the expression on Changsun Wuji's face was sincere, and the other half was for Li Min. This was not only a reminder  He didn't like Li Tai himself, and he also wanted to remind Li Min of his bad character.  .  .  )
