Just when Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng first arrived in Dengzhou, a businessman with quick hands and feet finally safely sent the first batch of canned seafood to Chang'an for sale. However, this guy was rather shady and set the price of each bottle of canned food at five

One hundred Wen, and his purchase price in Dengzhou was only ten Wen. Even including the freight on the road, it was only about thirty or forty Wen at most. But this guy suddenly offered a price that was more than ten times higher. I guess this guy

Even the bones are as black as black-bone chicken.

But even so, as soon as these novel cans were put on the market, they immediately attracted countless people to grab them. The most indispensable thing in Chang'an City was the rich. Not to mention the value of the seafood in these cans, they can be stored for a long time, and even the outside is bare.

If the glass bottle were sold alone in Chang'an, it would probably be worth at least this price.

With the spread of canned food, it even attracted the attention of the Ministry of War and generals like Li Jing, because when marching and fighting, the preservation of meat has always been a big problem. It would be fine in winter, but in hot summer, only live livestock could be transported.

Not only is it time-consuming and laborious, but some of them may die on the way. It would be good if seven or eight out of ten sheep can be sent to the front line. However, the emergence of canned food has solved this problem.

So the black-hearted businessman was immediately recruited to the Ministry of War, and under the questioning of several vicious bosses, he explained the origin of the cans. When they heard that it was His Highness King Qi who had done it again, they finally breathed a sigh of relief. They were just about to report it.

Li Shimin then asked him, a father, to ask his son Li Min for the canning method. Unexpectedly, Li Yifu from the Patent Department came to the door and brought the canning method that Li Min had patented.

At the same time that Li Yifu went to the Ministry of War, Wang Zihao, who had been instructed by Li Min, also took action. He divided the glass factory in Chang'an into two parts. One part had a small but skilled workforce, specializing in the production of high-end glass products, such as beautiful handicrafts.

Or high-permeability lenses, etc. In addition, most of the work

The factory formed a new factory, specializing in the production of cans, bottles or other cheap glass products, and recruited people around Chang'an. If there were not enough people, Silla slaves shipped from Dengzhou were used to fill the number. Anyway, in just half a month,

A new large-scale glass factory was built and put into production quickly.

After the glass factory was built, preparations for the military cannery factory jointly built by the Ministry of War, Ministry of Household Affairs and Ministry of Industry were also completed. As soon as the bottles from the glass factory arrived, production started immediately. At the same time, some wealthy families or businessmen in Chang'an also saw it.

business opportunities, one after another went to the patent office to obtain

At the same time, he either personally or sent someone to visit Wang Zihao, who was just a businessman, and wanted to obtain an order for cans from the glass factory. After all, although the glass factory was large in scale, so many people wanted to open a canning factory, so it was impossible to do so anyway.

Can't meet everyone's needs.

Although everyone who visits the Wang family has a good background, they are all respectful to Wang Zihao, a businessman. Now everyone knows that Wang Zihao is Li Min's general agent in Chang'an. Who dares to be rude to Wang Zihao?

, that is, being rude to His Royal Highness King Qi. Although Li Min is not in Chang'an now, look at the top nobles and wealthy families in Chang'an. Which one is not related to the interests of the Prince of Qi's palace? Touching the Prince of Qi is equivalent to opposing the entire aristocratic class. Such consequences

Not everyone can afford it.

For these people who came to visit, Wang Zihao was just talking business. He would deliver goods to whomever offered a higher price and more favorable conditions. There was no mercy to be shown. This approach made many people praise him.

, of course. It also aroused the dissatisfaction of some people who were close to Li Min, such as Cheng Huailiang, Li Jingye and others who wanted to have priority in purchasing the cans and bottles, but were rejected by the smiling Wang Zihao.

However, for such an offending situation, Wang Zihao, who had already polished his skills in the business world, was naturally well prepared. This time, in addition to bringing instructions for the expansion of the glass factory, Li Min also wanted to cooperate with others to bring this

Open more factories that produce cheap glass products. After all, everyone now realizes the practical value of glass, and something as enviable as glass cannot always be in the hands of one person. Therefore, more people are attracted to it.

It's time to get involved.

It was under this circumstance that Wang Zihao refused all invitations today and rushed to Li Ke's Prince Wu's Mansion to visit with the canned goods and overseas treasures just shipped from Dengzhou.

"The common people pay homage to His Highness the King of Wu!" Wang Zihao entered the main hall and saw Li Ke sitting in the hall. He immediately bowed and saluted. He was Li Min's confidant, and Li Ke was Li Min's biological brother, so the two of them used to often visit each other.

When we met, we seemed to be very familiar with each other.

"Haha, please wake me up, Zihao. You're here right now. Why are you giving me so many gifts?" Li Ke said with a smile. Although canned food has started to be produced in Chang'an, canned seafood sent from Dengzhou is still relatively rare.

Coupled with those overseas rare treasures, these gifts together are a rare gift.

"Your Highness, these gifts were specially sent by His Highness King Qi. Those rare treasures are nothing, but Princess Qi heard that both King Wu and Princess Wu like to taste seafood, so she asked the chef of Prince Qi's Mansion to cook some herself.

Let the seafood dishes be made into cans and sent to His Highness and Princess!" Wang Zihao replied very appropriately.

"Hahaha, I wonder why Liulang is so careful. It turns out it's the kindness of his sister-in-law!" Li Ke laughed and said, although there were seafood in Chang'an in the past, most of them were pickled or dried goods, and the taste was not good.

Only those who have suffered hardship can eat it, but some top-quality seafood can also be included in the banquet of the nobles. Li Min and his wife

I like to eat seafood. As soon as the canned seafood from Dengzhou was delivered, Li Ke and his wife immediately liked these authentic canned seafood, so they wanted to buy more. But unfortunately, Dengzhou is far away from Chang'an, so they can't

I didn't buy much, but I didn't expect that Li Min's princess was thoughtful and even sent some specially.

Since it was Li Min's kindness, Li Min was not polite and asked someone to accept the gift. He also specially asked someone to send the canned food to the princess. How about letting her taste the seafood cooked by the chef of Prince Qi's mansion?

With Li Ke's intelligence, he naturally guessed that Wang Zihao would not come to him specially to give gifts, so he then smiled and said: "Zihao, you came to my place today, but what's the important thing?"

"Your Highness, the common people do have something important to ask for your help today..." Wang Zihao bowed again and said, and then told Li Min's plan to allow others to take shares and cooperate to open a glass factory, and today he

The reason why I came to Li Ke was because I wanted to

Ask Li Ke to help, call together Cheng Huailiang and Li Jingye and other people who have interests in Li Min, and then Li Ke will lead them to join a joint venture and open several more glass factories. This will not only benefit everyone, but also alleviate the problem.

Let’s look at the pressure on the glass factory under Li Min’s name.

Hearing Wang Zihao's words, Li Ke clapped his hands and exclaimed: "Okay! Liulang is really a man with a heart for the world. He even took out something as hugely profitable as glass. If it were this king, he would never have such courage!"

Hearing Li Ke's words of praise for Li Min, Wang Zihao raised his eyebrows and praised King Qi with such words as having the world in mind. Isn't this just saying that King Qi wants to be the emperor? As the brother of His Highness, King Wu, why?

Saying this in front of yourself, King Qi's confidant, is it because you want to test your reaction?

Thinking of this, Wang Zihao couldn't help but secretly become more vigilant, and he didn't show anything unusual on his face. In fact, this is not to blame for Wang Zihao's worry. Although Li Ke is Li Min's biological brother, as the saying goes, there is no family affection in the royal family, and even more

What's more, between princes who also have the right to inherit the throne?

In addition to what happened with the prince before, although King Li Tai of Wei is dancing very happily now, His Royal Highness King Qi is also very popular. If there is really any change in the position of the prince in the future, then who can ascend to the position of the prince?

It's really hard to say, and I'm afraid even His Majesty can't explain it clearly.

Thinking of the prince's incident, Wang Zihao's heart moved, which was just the right time to change the subject, and "Your Highness, I have informed His Highness King Qi that the prince's legs and feet were injured last time, but I don't know how the prince's injury is now?"

In history, Li Chengqian was a lame, but after Li Min traveled to the Tang Dynasty, he found that his legs and feet were normal, which made him think that history had misremembered it. But what should come will eventually come. Li Chengqian will go abroad this spring.

When he was out hunting, he accidentally fell from a horse and his leg bones were chewed off by the horse. It was said that it was difficult to recover. Although not many people knew about it, it could not be hidden from Li Ke, so he notified Wang Zihao and asked him to

Tell Li Min.

"Well, the prince's matter is in trouble this time. I heard that even Dr. Sun is helpless about his injury. The most he can do is make him walk, but he is probably likely to become a lame." Although Li Ke looked heavy on the surface,

A hint of joy flashed in the eyes

Hi, in fact, it is not just him. Almost all the adult princes are very excited about Li Chengqian's injury. After all, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty cannot let a cripple do it. As long as Li Chengqian is abolished, they will all compete for the throne.

qualifications.

Hearing Li Ke's words, Wang Zihao also became excited. The condition of the prince's injury was not yet clear last time, but now it is almost a foregone conclusion. As a result, His Highness King Qi's hope of ascending to the throne has also been greatly increased. It seems that he must take care of this as soon as possible.

The news was passed to His Highness, but His Highness's attitude towards the throne is unclear now. I wonder what he really thinks?

The matter was done, and Li Ke agreed to summon everyone on Li Min's behalf, so Wang Zihao hurriedly left, returned to the backyard of his home, wrote the message on a note, and then released three flying slaves with the same note to Dengzhou.

Some Yang Shi will receive these messages. The so-called flying slaves are actually pigeons. This method of transmitting messages has been around since the Qin and Han Dynasties. Wang Zihao has been using this method to transmit messages to Li Min.

And just after Wang Zihao left, Li Ke in Prince Wu's palace sat in the palace, without making any movement for a long time, with a gloomy look on his face. He didn't know what he was thinking?!~!
