Chapter 148 The way to make money
Li Shimin's carriage came to Dali Temple. He just lifted the curtain and was about to get off the car, but suddenly hesitated for a moment. Because he found that the carriages in front of him were lined up. Looking around, at least a dozen carriages were already blocking the road.
Li Shimin looked around and said, "You are right, this is Dali Temple!" But when did Dali Temple become so lively?
Li Shimin called Eunuch Gao over and said, "Go and ask what's going on, why are there so many people?"
"promise."
Eunuch Gao took the order and left, and came back soon, reporting: "Your Majesty, these carriages are from various major families. They came here because they had invested in it."
"Invest in shares?" Li Shimin couldn't understand and wondered: "What does it mean to invest in shares?"
Eunuch Gao replied honestly: "I heard that it was created by Zhulu Hou, and I didn't understand it very well."
"Useless stuff." Li Shimin cursed, got off the carriage, and strode towards Dali Temple. As soon as he walked a few steps, several officers jumped out and blocked the middle of the road, saying, "Didn't you watch such a long line? You're queuing!"
Eunuch Gao said angrily: "You know who we are, so let's queue up? Tell you, our nobles have never queued up!"
"Wu!" The two officers looked at each other and chuckled disdainfully. Looking at the eyes of the two, it seemed to be saying 'Look, another one was pretending'. Eunuch Gao said angrily: "What do you two mean?"
The officer who had just spoken held a fist and said, "You two nobles have invited you, it's said that you shouldn't be allowed to queue up. But these days, this is the rule here. You see, there is no carriage in front of you, the youngest one is a county magistrate. Are you all queuing obediently? You two, you'd better queule, we're also for your own good. If you get into the line and get angry, you'll be the one who suffers a loss."
When Li Shimin heard the two of them say this, he frowned and glanced at Eunuch Gao. Eunuch Gao took out his waist sign. The two officers saw the eunuch in charge, and he was stunned for a moment. When he looked at Li Shimin, he was so scared that he was gone and knelt on the ground.
Li Shimin shook his head and walked over to Dali Temple. Si Zhi at the door recognized Li Shimin and hurried over to see him. At the same time, he asked someone to inform Sun Fujia.
Sun Fujia was in the room to entertain guests, but he had been busy these days. He couldn't afford to offend anyone who came and had to accompany him. Awkwardly, no one came to him, but they all came to Li Mu. But there was no way. When he arrived at his yamen, he couldn't care. The good Shaoqing of Dali Temple turned his life into a restaurant and ran away.
When he heard that Li Shimin was coming, Sun Fujia hurriedly accused him of his crime and came to the door to greet him. As soon as Sun Fujia bent down, Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "I'll give up on the courtesy. Tell me, what's going on?"
Sun Fujia smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, you see that these people are here to invest in the shares."
"What is investment?"
Sun Fujia quickly explained: "It's just like doing business and genomes. But it's a bit more complicated, and I don't understand it very well. The day before yesterday, Zhulu Hou met Wang Shizhong's younger brother Wang Pu in the morning, and Zhao Duke Changsun Chong in the afternoon. In the evening, he met Yu Wengui, the doctor of the Ministry of Works. The next day, he announced the establishment of three companies, namely Datang Mining, Datang Salt Industry, and Datang Jianye. Then many people came, waiting in line to meet Zhulu Hou, but I couldn't figure out the situation."
The more Li Shimin heard, the more confused he felt, he frowned and said, "What is he doing now?"
"It seems like I'm meeting Duke Shen."
"Uncle?" Li Shimin said angrily: "My uncle, come to the prison to see him? What's going on!"
Sun Fujia smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, don't be excited. As the young minister of Dali Temple, I have something to report to Your Majesty."
"you say!"
"I want to impeach Zhulu Hou, but he openly accepted bribes. He also occupied the empty cell of Dali Temple as a warehouse. You will know after you look at it. Now the cells of Dali Temple are full of copper coins. The amount is unestimated. I guess, at least 120,000 to 100,000 to 100,000 yuan..."
"Twelve and thirty thousand..." Li Shimin only felt the back of his neck rushing up and rushed forward with a bloody blood. Without saying a word, he turned around and walked towards the prison. Sun Fujia and Eunuch Gao hurriedly followed. When the three of them entered the cell, they heard Li Mu's voice: "...Old Duke, I didn't joke with you. I'm sorry I won't serve you. I don't care. I don't care about you. Look at this account book, which one is less than 10,000 yuan? We have written the rules clearly, and you have more shares, more dividends, less share, less dividends. How many thousand yuan can you pay? I have to arrange an account for you. It's really not good! Datang Salt Industry has a registered capital of one million yuan. With such a big deal, you have such a high status, you have eight thousand yuan. Tsk tsk... It's so unpleasant!"
"Boy Li Mu! Did you say that day? There are benefits to me. I believed you and waited for you for many days. What have you been waiting for? I haven't waited for any benefit now. I'm better, but I asked me for money... Is this reasonable?"
"Old Duke, this is a shameless word. I mean to give you good things, I gave it to you. Look, there are three companies now. Datang Salt Industry, Datang Mining Industry, and Datang Jianye, right? According to my arrangement, Datang Mining Industry, only the Cui Family of Qinghe, Li Family of Zhaojun, and Wang Family of Taiyuan can invest in shares. Datang Salt Industry, only the Longyou nobles can invest in shares. Datang Jianye, will not accept the investment for the time being. But for you, you can invest in three companies at will. What a great benefit! Others only have one hen that lays golden eggs, and you can have three. As long as you invest money boldly, the return is three times that of others. This is not a benefit. Tell me, what is the benefit?"
Gao Shilian was a little anxious and said, "I can't just leave money without paying, you can give me some shares..."
Li Mu slapped the table with a slap and said, "Old Duke! You are too thick-skinned, right? I can't let you invest? Didn't you see the carriage lined up outside when you came? They all want to invest. Are you not satisfied with it when you compare with them? How can you eat money in the world? Eating money in the world is something that only beggars do. Old Duke, you are a person with status, so why should you be obsessed with comparing beggars?"
When Li Shimin heard this, he felt a sudden heart. He knew Gao Shilian's temper so much that he got angry. He didn't dare to scold him except Li Yuan, and he didn't dare to scold him. It seemed that Li Mu was about to be scolded. Somehow, Li Shimin felt a little secretly happy.
But what Gao Shilian said next surprised him.
"Okay, okay, I can't tell you. I've invested in it. I've bought it. Each of the three companies is 10,000 yuan!"
"Okay!" Li Mu said, and said to Gu Dujiu next to him: "Brother, give the old Duke a record, each of the three companies is 10,000 yuan." Seeing Dugu Jiu write the ticket, Li Mu said to Gao Shilian again: "Old Duke, the number is limited, and this ticket has a limited date. If the money is not taken in place, this share may not be yours. This is the rule, even if the emperor is not satisfied!"
"Give it to you!" Gao Shilian took the ticket and said gritting his teeth.
At this time, Li Shimin couldn't help it and walked to the front of the prison gate. Li Mu was keeping the account with a smile. Suddenly, he saw Li Shimin, quickly lowered his smile and bowed honestly, "See Your Majesty."
Gao Shilian turned around and saw Li Shimin. He saluted and said angrily: "Your Majesty, your good minister!"
Li Shimin said awkwardly: "Uncle, don't be angry... Li Mu! What's going on! How can you be so disrespectful to my uncle?"
Li Mu said with a blank expression: "Your Majesty, you are doing business. If the old Duke doesn't want to, I can't force him. Now I can also go back on my word and ask the old Duke to return the ticket to me, just pretending that it hasn't happened."
"uncle……"
"Don't think about it!" Gao Shilian said angrily: "I have worked so much to get the ticket. I will return it? I will give me the shares when I return it? I won't say it anymore! I went back home to raise money, alas!"
Gao Shilian sighed and left, Li Mu shouted at the top of his voice: "Old Duke, I forgot to say, do you want an office? Depending on your face, you can choose the same price, and others can only queue up!"
"I don't need it!"
Gao Shilian's voice came from afar, and the person had already gone out.
Li Shimin stared at Li Mu. Li Mu noticed his gaze and shrugged his shoulders.
"Don't you think you should give me an explanation?"
Li Mu bowed and said, "I want to congratulate Your Majesty!"
"I don't know, why are you happy?"
"Your Majesty, I have earned you for your Majesty in just three days..." Li Mu glanced at the account book and said, "I earned one,720,000 yuan for your Majesty."
"How much?" Li Shimin thought he had an auditory hallucination and said, "You say it again, how much does it cost?"
"One,720,000 guan."
Suddenly, three air conditioners sounded, Li Shimin waved his hand, and Eunuch Gao took Sun Fujia and gave a wink at Li Chongyi and Dugu Jiu. The two of them didn't understand the meaning, and were pulled out by Eunuch Gao.
The prison door was closed, and only Li Shimin and Li Mu were left in the prison. Li Shimin stared at Li Mu with bright eyes and asked, "Say it again, how much money did you make?"
"I have said it twice! One hundred and seventy-two million guan. When I send all the shares, I will get two million guan."
Li Shimin took a few deep breaths before calming down. He gestured to Li Mu and both of them sat down. Now there are not only beds, but also tables and chairs in the prison cell. It is still a cell, but it is like a lobby.
Li Shimin originally wanted to find fault, but in the face of millions of dollars, it was obviously not a big deal.
"Love," Li Shimin stared at Li Mu, his face full of spring breeze, and was extremely warm: "Tell me quickly, how did you make this money?"
"This money is..." Li Mu was about to say, but suddenly paused, and said with a look of sorrow, "Your Majesty, my little trick is not worth mentioning. Your Majesty, I am guilty and dare not express my merits. Moreover, I haven't seen my family for several days. I miss you and worry becomes sick..."
Just knowing that this is the case, Li Shimin said angrily: "I don't have to write a memorial, can you say it?"
