The Li family of Longxi.

"The imperial court plans to sell classics below cost. Is this news reliable?"

After hearing the servant's report, the head of the family asked calmly.

It's just that he was very confused in his heart. The Tang royal family was already so poor that it was almost too poor to take the blame. How could they still think about those poor students?

"Master, the news is absolutely reliable. It comes from within the imperial court."

After so many years of accumulation, they controlled a large number of connections in the court.

Even if there is a little bit of trouble, they will know it as soon as possible.

"Ha! That kid Li Shimin actually wants to use such a method to dismantle the team we have trained. It is really childish."

The head of the Li family pondered for a moment, and immediately understood the purpose of the royal family's action, and immediately sneered.

"Master, this old slave really doesn't understand what you mean?"

The old butler humbly asked for advice. He really didn't see what the other party's back-up plan was for the royal family to do such a stupid thing that hurt their vitality.

"Haha, over the years, our aristocratic family has trained many students."

"Once they successfully pass the imperial examination, they will surely rise to prominence in the future and gain a position in the government."

"Although they are officials of the imperial court, don't forget how they got to that position. Without our help, they would not have gotten there."

"So, while they are officials, they also have to be our dogs. Now, it is too naive for the royal family to want to drive away these dogs in this way."

The head of the Li family spoke sarcastically about the court's actions this time. In his eyes, this was just a child's play.

"It's so stupid."

After being reminded by the owner of the house, the housekeeper finally understood the hidden trouble and smiled disdainfully.

"Send a message to the Li family in Zhaojun, saying that when the imperial court sells books at low prices, don't give outsiders a chance. We will eat them all. When the imperial court runs out of books, we will sell them at high prices."

A few days ago, the royal family set up a printing shop, presumably for printing books.

It's just that Li Shimin would never have imagined in his wildest dreams that everything he planned would inevitably become a wedding dress for the aristocratic family.

"House Master Sheng Ming!"

In terms of financial resources, it is impossible for the royal family to compare with the aristocratic families.

Secondly, they did not believe that the imperial court could have too many books for sale.

Therefore, in the face of strong financial resources, such a strategy is a joke.

…

"Your Majesty, I really didn't expect that the combination of my little brother's papermaking technology and printing technology would be so efficient. In such a short period of time, thousands of sets of classics have been printed."

In the past few days, Changsun Wuji has been running back and forth between the paper mill and the palace.

He will report every day's changes and output to Li Er accurately.

"Very good, I really want to see how wonderful Li's face will be when she learns the truth!"

Li Er only mentioned the clever plan that Mu Jiuge proposed to him that day to Changsun Wuji.

According to this efficiency, the court can implement the plan in a few days.

"I also want to see their faces."

Changsun Wuji quickly agreed, although he was called an old scumbag.

But he himself believed that in terms of insidiousness, the two of him could not compare to that bastard Mu Jiuge.

"What tricks has that kid been up to in the past few days?"

Thinking that 50% of the profit would eventually be given to Mu Jiuge, Li Er felt a pang of pain in his heart.

Obviously I paid the most, but the profit I got in the end was so unsatisfactory.

Moreover, he had a hunch in his heart that there were still a lot of messy intestines in this kid's belly.

As long as you can seize the opportunity, it will not be difficult for the Tang Dynasty to replenish its treasury.

"Back to Your Majesty, the people below reported that the boy has not left the house in the past few days and has been building a house."

Changsun Wuji could understand Mu Jiuge very well, as he had lived in abject poverty for so many years.

Now that I have money, I naturally want to enjoy it.

Although I still don't feel the difference between that house and my own manor.

But he always had an illusion in his heart, that is, His Majesty's Jinluan Palace might not be as good as that boy's house.

"Auxiliary machine, do you think that pig-raising business can really be successful?"

Since he didn't do anything attractive, Li Er naturally thought of the previous topic.

"Your Majesty, let's not talk about whether it is possible to raise pigs. I have recently paid attention to the growth of potatoes. If such a high yield can be achieved, it will definitely be a blessing to the people of the Tang Dynasty!"

It's hard to imagine what the little brother is thinking in his head, and why everything he creates is worthy of their deep thought.

Compared with the other party's unrestrained thoughts, he and others are almost fools, which makes the old scumbag who claims to have amazing intelligence very unhappy.

"Yes, even if the expected results cannot be achieved, if the yield per mu can reach ten stones, it can be regarded as an important weapon of the country!"

Such words caused a faint smile to appear on Li Er's cheek, and he spoke with emotion.

"Your Majesty, Holy Ming!"

The four words "the most important weapon of the country" are well deserved.

"Let's go, accompany me to my little brother's house. After all, Tudou will still need his guidance in the future."

Although Li Er was very pleased with this kind of flattering behavior, he also knew that he could not be blinded by these things.

"My lord, I obey the order."

Among the entire court, only a few of them knew about the existence of the little brother.

Even though the royal family is now running the project, there is still no publicity at all.

Li Er and Changsun Wuji knew very well that there were too few ministers in the court who could agree with His Majesty.

"Father, I want to go too. It's really boring in the palace."

Seeing the direction in which her father and uncle were walking, Princess Changle immediately thought of the purpose of their trip and chased after them with gleaming eyes.

"Nonsense, my father is out on something important to attend to!"

After looking around, Li Er then straightened his face and scolded.

"Father, wasn't it just a visit to Mu Jiuge's home? Is it as serious as you said?"

The last time she went out, she figured out the purpose of her father and others.

You went to get some fine wine, but you still lied to yourself about going out to do something important. Do you really think you don’t know anything?

"Shh! Don't make this matter public, let alone let others know about his existence. Let's go."

This girl was so careless. If she was not taken with him, Qi Mu Jiuge's identity would be leaked from her mouth.

"Father, don't worry, I will keep my mouth shut."

Having achieved her goal, Princess Changle nodded her little head quickly, showing a successful smile.

Although she didn't know why she couldn't let others know about Mu Jiuge's existence.

Since my father said so, it makes sense.
