Chapter 132: Receiving Pan

Li Yu didn't feel it at first, and was waiting happily for Pan Chenghou to surrender and admit defeat, enjoying the pleasure of showing off.

After waiting around, Eunuch Pan admitted that he was defeated. When he looked at his appearance, Li Yu was shocked.

"Don't something happens!"

"Ephesian Pan looks cunning, but he seems to be quite fragile inside. When he recognized his nephew last time, he was excited to get over. Don't faint again today..."

He quickly walked up to him and knocked on the table with his knuckles a few times.

Eunuch Pan woke up from his dream and said bitterly: "Congratulations to Liulang, for making such a magical thing, it will be a pity to leave a name in history in the future. If you lose your way, you will be convinced."

Seeing that he seemed to be ten years old all of a sudden, Li Yu felt a little unbearable. The fruit of victory seemed to be no longer so delicious.

However, taking out the abacus to compete with Pan Chenghou is just an introduction, and the drama is still coming.

Li Yu walked to the side, poured some tea into the teacup, picked up the soup bottle on the charcoal stove, made a cup of tea, and handed it to Pan Chenghou.

The latter was so scared that he stood up and took it with both hands, and said, "I dare not, don't dare, I will leave."

Li Yu also poured himself a cup, holding it in both hands and sipped it slowly

After Pan Chenghou took two sips of hot tea, his expression gradually became normal, and his expression no longer seemed to be as sudden as before.

Seeing that it was almost done, Li Yu put the teacup on the table and said softly: "Pan Chenghou, do you know why I am going to compete with you today?"

"This?" Pan Chenghou was stunned when he heard this. This question is indeed difficult to answer.

At first I thought Li Yu was a teenager, but after this period of contact, Pan Chenghou understood very well that this King Anding had a pure character, but he was still quite strategic in his heart.

He could not answer this moment when he said this.

"Pan Chenghou, at this moment, you and me are only in the room, and outside are my confidants, so there is no risk of being separated by the wall."

Although the eunuchs and palace maids in the shop are all of the complex sources, I don’t know how many other people’s eyes and ears are mixed.

But Li Yu was not a good meal, and he stuffed a few absolutely reliable ones into it through Zhao Chun in case of emergency needs.

That's it now.

"Gulu" Pan Chenghou swallowed, and he also knew that the main show had begun.

"You and I have only been together for a month, but I am afraid that you have a conclusion in your heart. And I also understand that I want to join hands with you now..."

He was very kind, but if Pan Chenghou couldn't understand, he would have been in the palace for so long.

Join hands?

What qualifications do you have to work with the prince as a eunuch?

It's nothing more than a comprehensive allegiance.

"Return to Liulang, the saint summoned him a few days ago. He reported the truth when he left, and there was no place to add more money." Pan Chenghou decided to detour first.

Liulang wants to be loyal to himself, but he can tell that his purpose is that he has an idea of ​​the position.

Such things must not be mixed!

Pan Chenghou made up his mind and first made a fool of himself, then he found a way to quit the job and took Pan Rong back home directly!

The Pan family finally had hope again, and they must not get involved in such a big task. If they succeed, they will certainly make great gains.

But what if I lose?

The prince is always the prince. He may be regarded as a treacherous person, and then he will be executed to serve as a warning to others!

Seeing his eyes rolling, Li Yu knew that the old guy's mind was still agile.

Then he pushed the abacus in front of him.

"this?"

Pan Chenghou couldn't figure it out again. What does King Anding mean?

Although this abacus is magical, what does it mean to push it to yourself?

Could it be that he intends to push the credit for inventing this thing on his head to use it as bait in exchange for allegiance?

If it were twenty years ago, I might still be interested.

No, if Pan Rong was not found, Pan Chenghou would kneel down without hesitation.

But now he is going to think about the family.

"I'm old when I go down, and I've lost all my heart for these false reputations. However, King Anding made his name so young."

"Hahahahahahaha" Li Yu laughed "Bringing this to make a name, Pan Chenghou, if I want, can the Daming name be spread throughout the Tang Dynasty within ten days?"

Li Yu was not proud of it. It was too convenient for time travelers to become famous. Copying poems is enough, "When writing about the wonderful scenery with your dreams, the sun breaks the clouds and waves thousands of miles away", if you write the sentence "I have to say that the Southern Tang Dynasty even the whole world has to praise you.

(Who dares not praise it, I went out and continued.)

"Pan Chenghou, if you say something unreasonable, I have already understood something in poetry, but I just don't want to attract attention. If I hadn't been clamored by Feng Yansi on that day, I wouldn't have written poems casually."

"This, this is a mistake in the downward move. But..."

"This is not for you, but for Pan Rong." Li Yu interrupted him rudely.

"You Pan family is just the only one. He was born as a merchant and can only do business now, but I think you definitely don't want your Pan family to be a merchant in a few generations, right?"

"Liulang, what do you mean?" Pan Chenghou vaguely touched Li Yu's thoughts, but he did not dare to admit it.

"I'm too lazy to hide from you, just say it. Everything is inferior to studying. I have been suspended for a long time since the imperial examinations were held twice during the first year of Shengyuan. However, it is impossible for me to stop there. The court needs talents. Pan Rong is a merchant, and not only is he his descendants, he cannot participate in the imperial examinations."

"You said that if Pan Rong held this item and presented it to the court, with the kindness of the saint, and your hard work for so many years, you would have to reward him as a Xuanyilang and a Chaosanlang. If it was not done well, it would be impossible to throw it to the six ministries to do a small task. In this way, he jumped out of business!"

"Of course, merchants can also exchange for scattered official positions by paying grain and losing donations, but my Tang Dynasty warehouse is full, so this case will not be reopened."

Chaosanlang and Xuanyilang are both seventh-rank sanguan positions and are usually used to reward those who have made meritorious services.

Although there is no real position, for ordinary people, they are also a step forward to reaching the sky. They are considered to be a person in the officialdom, and they can show enough majesty in the local area.

As for the money to buy the title if you lose money, you spend money to buy the title, but the court was unwilling to set this precedent unless it was absolutely necessary.

After all, it was very indecent, which was to the late Qing Dynasty that it was not until it was corrupt that it was openly sold official positions and titles, and there was no decentness at all.

Li Yu, this move hit Lao Pan's pain point directly.

Pan Rong is already a business owner. Although Pan Chenghou is a big eunuch, he has no way to change it, so he hopes to take grain and lose money.

But this depends on the court. The Tang Dynasty is currently the richest and most comprehensive national strength in China. It also pursues the strategy of hiding wealth from the people and being cautious in using weapons. In addition, Dechang Palace has millions of gold and silk as a backing.

There is really no need to sell official positions.

Pan Chenghou was upset whenever he thought about this. He was over fifty years old. In this era, he was at the age of closing his eyes at any time, but the Pan family’s business registration was his biggest anxiety at the moment.
