Datang: Destroy Tang Taizong Li Xiao at the beginning

Qian Yuanwai frowned and thought for a while, then said to Lu Li's subordinates, "Well, go back and tell Mr. Cheng that I can't go there today because I have something to do, so I'll find time tomorrow!"

"That's what I mean too. If we want to talk about cooperation, let's wait another day!"

"Yes, today I have important matters to discuss with the eldest grandson, and I really don't have time."

These businessmen have refused.

This is really nothing to consider.

Although Cheng Chumo has an extraordinary family background, compared with Chang Sun Chong, it is far behind.

Chapter 103: The Restaurant Opens Soon

First of all, Changsun Chong himself is the servant of the household department, a senior official of the fourth rank.

His father, the eldest grandson Wuji, is also the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, a third rank.

No matter who it is, if they want to enter the court as an official, they basically have to go through the review of the Ministry of Officials.

Even the current empress is from the eldest grandson's family.

Therefore, in Chang'an City, the power of the Changsun family can be said to be the biggest power besides the royal family.

There was no need to think too much, these merchants sent all of Lu Li's men away.

……

"None of them came?"

Lu Li frowned slightly as he listened to his subordinates' report.

"How is it possible? Did you not hand over the invitation letter to them? Did you give me Cheng Chumo's name?"

Cheng Chumo looked disbelieving.

"Young Master Cheng, I've told you all, but they still don't want to come."

"It's unreasonable! It's just some small businessmen, and they don't pay attention to me, Fat Lord!"

Cheng Chu silently slapped the table and stood up with an angry expression on his face.

It was literally slapping him in the face.

"Why didn't they come?" Lu Li asked with a frown.

"My lord, my subordinates have checked. They are waiting for Sun Chong. It seems that there is something important to discuss." The subordinates reported truthfully.

"It's this eldest Sun Chong again! Repeatedly spoiling my good deeds, do you really think I, Cheng Chumo, are easy to bully?!"

Cheng Chumo gritted his teeth and said: "Don't stop me, I'll go over and teach him a lesson now, let him know that Fatty is not easy to mess with!"

As he said that, Cheng Chumo was about to go out, but he turned around every step of the way, as if he was waiting for Lu Li to persuade him.

However, Lu Li said with admiration: "Young Master Cheng is indeed mighty, go and return early."

Cheng Chumo: "???"

He was shocked.

Why don't you play cards according to the routine?

They are here waiting for Li Xiao to come over, how can they leave at this time.

So Cheng Chumo felt that Lu Li would at least remind him.

Then he could take advantage of the situation and say that he reluctantly let Chang Sun Chong go.

This lost face will come back in no time.

But he never expected that Lu Li would let him go.

Where can I go.

He can't beat Zhang Sun Chong.

Thinking of this, Cheng Chumo stopped and said: "Forget it, Li Xiao told me to wait, there must be something important to order, so I still won't go."

"Young Master Cheng, don't worry, I'm here, and I'll explain to you, Your Highness, so don't worry!" Lu Li said with a smile.

Hearing this, Cheng Chumo was instantly embarrassed.

Can we still have a good chat?

Is it a group?

Why do you want him to die?

Just when Cheng Chumo didn't know how to make an excuse, Li Xiao brought someone outside the door.

In addition to the carriage he was riding in, there were dozens of imperial guards on horseback beside him, and behind him was a whole row of carts.

On the trolley, all the people pulling are jars of wine.

In one night's work, only a few hundred jars of wine were produced, and he brought them all over.

"Li Xiao!"

Cheng Chumo, who just walked to the door, rushed over as if seeing a savior.

"This is?"

Looking at the wine jar on the cart, Cheng Chumo was a little puzzled.

Could it be that he really intends to do business?

From the beginning to the end, he thought that Li Xiao was messing around because of his willfulness, which was a waste of money.

But now it seems that this is not the case.

"Go in and talk."

Li Xiao ignored Cheng Chumo and walked in.

In the lobby, Li Xiao nodded to Lu Li, and then asked, "What happened just now?"

He was very surprised. When he was about to reach the door, the good system reminded Lu Li that he had successfully dismantled Cheng Chumo and got the seed reward.

"Hehe, Mr. Cheng is going to settle accounts with Changsun Chong. His subordinates didn't stop him, so he probably won't be able to step down!" Lu Li said with a smile.

"what happened?"

"Is such that……"

Lu Li detailed what happened before.

Li Xiao immediately frowned upon hearing this.

"Forget it if you don't come."

Soon, Li Xiao was relieved.

The reason why he brought those rich kids over was to discuss the source of goods, and the other was to use their relationship to sell Erguotou and capture the market as soon as possible.

It's a little off, but it's not a big deal.

"Your Highness, according to your instructions, I have recruited some people. What should I do next?" Lu Li asked.

"Move some of the wine in first, leave some outside, and then..."

Li Xiao quickly made arrangements.

……

Royal study.

"Your Majesty, the first batch of food has been sent to the north, and it will arrive in Youzhou in a few days."

Fang Xuanling stood below and reported.

"Well, the siege of Youzhou has been lifted, half a month should be no worries." Li Er nodded.

"But the disaster in the north is still serious, and more food is needed." Fang Xuanling frowned.

Speaking of this, Li Er suddenly remembered something, and said, "Where is Xiao'er? What is he doing?"

"His Royal Highness Yue bought a store, and it seems that he is going to use the store to earn money to buy food." Fang Xuanling said.

"Business?"

Li Er was taken aback, then frowned: "He can still do business?"

"His Royal Highness Yue Wang is talented and intelligent, maybe he can find another way to earn enough money in a short period of time." Fang Xuanling said thoughtfully.

"How much silver can you earn in a month?"

Li Er shook his head, and continued: "Maybe I put too much pressure on him, so that he was in a panic, that's all... It's because I have too high demands on him."

For ordinary shops, it is not bad to make a profit of tens of taels a month.

A profit of more than one hundred taels is one of the few in the capital.

Even though Li Xiao has a good mind and a talent for doing business.

In just one month, it is impossible to earn more than 1000 taels of silver.

How much food can you buy with this little money?

Not enough for a fraction of 500 million shi of grain.

"Your Highness should know it well," Fang Xuanling said.

Having seen Li Xiao's intelligence, he still believes in Li Xiao.

"What is he going to do?" Li Er asked again.

"It seems to be preparing to open a restaurant. The servants saw His Highness bring hundreds of jars of wine into the shop." Fang Xuanling said.

"Restaurant?" Li Er thought for a while, then got up suddenly, "Come on, come with me to have a look."

"Think twice, Your Majesty, there is no guarantee that there will be no remaining assassins in the city, just in case..." Fang Xuanling said with a worried face.

"It's okay, I'll visit you in private."

……

Yunyan Tower.

"How many days do you think Cheng Chumo lived in Lantian Villa?"

As soon as Chang Sun Chong came over, he frowned when he heard the report from his subordinates.

"My lord, it's true. Few people know about this matter. It took a lot of effort for my subordinates to find out." The servant said respectfully.

Hearing this, Chang Sun Chong's face became even uglier.

"Are they a gang?"

Thinking of all the circumstances of the rosewood auction yesterday, Chang Sun Chong became more and more certain of this guess.

In other words, Li Xiao and Cheng Chumo teamed up to trick him yesterday.

Being plotted against, how can this be tolerated?

Unknown anger rose in Chang Sun Chong's heart.

"Where are they now?"

"My lord, yesterday Cheng Chumo bought a shop in a busy area of ​​Xuanwu Avenue, and this morning Li Xiao also went there with hundreds of jars of wine."

"Sure enough!"

At this point, Chang Sun Chong was quite sure.

But immediately, doubts flashed in his eyes again.

Buy shops, buy wine, what is this for?

Ready to open a restaurant?

The restaurant is to make money, but one month is not enough for Li Xiao to complete the task!

Chang Sun Chong looked confused.

"No matter what you want to do, since you dare to cheat me, how can I make you feel better?"

"Go, let's go and have a look too!"
