The splash that a little count made in Chang'an City was only enough to keep the people of Chang'an City talking for a day or two.
The three prime ministers and the prince had a fierce quarrel in the court, and officials from all parties were also involved. There was a fierce quarrel at every court meeting. This was not the most popular thing for the people of Chang'an. After all, it was annoying to see such a lively atmosphere.
The second prince, who was playing chess in the dark, knew that his methods were immature, so he had no choice but to make this move. This was the effect he wanted. If Chang'an City kept talking about Su Ce, a young martial artist, having a falling out with the prince, he would inevitably go too far and go too far. Things often only cause trouble and alert the snake.
In the past two days, the fight between the prince Zhao Zaicheng and the three prime ministers regarding the number of Jinshi in the imperial examination has involved many officials. It is inevitable that the prince and the princes and princes in the court are somewhat alone.
Su Ce, the unlucky guy who "offended" the prince, no longer paid attention to him. Chang'an Mole cricket also relaxed his vigilance towards Su Ce and began to contact Li Chang. Li Chang came into contact with many people every day. After several years of hard work, Li Chang also changed from one person to another. The rough guy in the frontier army turned into a mellow housekeeper of the Su family.
In the past two days, Su Ce returned to Suzhuang. After taking some time off, he resumed his previous life, fishing and raising fish quietly. He knew very well in his heart that this was just the calm before the blizzard, and he didn't know what to do with this rare peace. How long can I stay?
Another day, Su Ce was fishing, and Li Chang sat next to Su Ce. The scene in the Su family was a bit big. Li Chang felt weak, and many things were beyond his control. When Su Ce returned to Suzhuang, the entire Suzhuang was at last... The happy person is Li Chang, because the burden on his shoulders will be lighter for the time being.
At this time, the two of them mentioned the matter of building a residence in the permanent resettlement site. They had looked for several places before, but none of them were suitable. Li Chang was also in trouble.
"Li Chang, since you're spoiled for choice, let's not choose anymore. You went to see Yonghefang yesterday. What did you think?" Su Ce lifted the fishing rod. The hook was bare and there was no bait at all. As soon as he finished speaking, the fish The rod was thrown out again.
Li Chang watched Su Ce fishing like this, and he was already used to it. Ever since he moved to this small cottage by the river, the owner of the family had always fished like this.
"I went to see it yesterday. Most of the people living in Yonghe Square are beggars and refugees. As for the land in the square, more than half of it belongs to the Chang'an County government, and the other half belongs to the Dai family of Chang'an, a well-known philanthropist in Chang'an City. They opened a charity hall in Yongpingfang and gave out porridge every day. Why do you think about that place? The rest of Chang'an City is so nice, but there are no homes except beggars and homeless people." Li Chang sat in Suzhou. He sat on a short bench beside him.
Su Zhuang now has many rules. These rules were added by Li Chang. However, many of the rules feel awkward to Su Ce, so there are very few rules in private. Compared with the respect on the face, the respect in the heart is the real respect. Therefore, Li Chang did not show off in front of Su Ce.
Su Ce said with a smile: "There are many beggars and homeless people. The forbidden troops at the gate of the square, the officials inside the square, and the unscrupulous commanders on patrol are probably crazy because they are both beggars and homeless people. It is quite chaotic." "
Li Chang shook his head: "Chickens crow and dogs steal. The Imperial Guards and bad commanders are also diligent, but that's all thanks to Dai Shanren from Yongpingfang. People who stutter will always avoid going astray."
Su Ce put away the fishing rod and just smiled. Li Chang's thinking was still a bit simple. He sighed lightly. In Chang'an City, there are princes, generals and ministers from all walks of life. They never do things superficially: "This is not like usual. You, dear, will never leave this Dai Shanren today?"
Li Chang said with a smile: "I have never seen such a person. The Dai family has only been around for a hundred years. The family is mainly engaged in water transportation and is considered the leader among merchants in Chang'an. However, compared to those businessmen who are desperate for money, the Dai family has adopted many orphans.
They provide food for the people and teach them some skills, so refugees and beggars like to go to Yongpingfang. The land in that place can’t even be sold for more, so it’s a pretty good family.”
"Yes, it's very good! If you don't starve to death and have some skills, you can start a small family when you become an adult." Su Ce narrowed his eyes when he heard Li Chang's answer. He was praising him, but he was thinking about this in his heart.
The Dai family is afraid that they are the Chang'an crickets mentioned by the second prince Zhao Zaixiao.
I really hope the Dai family is a kind family!
But how is it possible?
Doing good deeds is because you feel guilty, or your hands may be stained with blood, just for peace of mind.
"Let's settle on Yonghefang. You go to the Chang'an County Government to buy part of it first. Our family has no real background. We will buy Yonghefang. Then we will see if Mr. Dai sells his part of the place and we can build some houses for these refugees.
It's much better than the Dai family abandoning that place.
It is not easy to have a good reputation in Chang'an City. After offending the prince, we have to find a guarantee for the family. We need this name. We will build more workshops in the future to give the refugees work in the extra space. If the prince is in trouble in the future, this reputation will
It's an amulet!" Su Ce didn't express his intention, but the Dai family's method might not be something he couldn't use for himself.
People in Chang'an City live for face and reputation. It is always shameful for the Su family to live in a corner. Once you enter this vanity fair, you have no control over many things. Therefore, if someone is looking for trouble in the future, it is better to have more worries.
Everyone clapped and cheered.
"No, uncle, do you really want to buy that crappy place? Although the land in the southwest corner is cheap, our family can't save money on it!" Li Chang patted his chest, and the fat on his body swayed. These people who followed Su Ce
The fierce soldiers of the frontier army have also had their bravery worn away by the peaceful days.
Su Ce said with a smile: "Su Zhuang has set up his face and let people know that Su Jianing is unyielding. Now Yonghefang is going to establish a good reputation. You can also see clearly that the government troops are being abolished because they don't want to fight. People
Everyone wants to recuperate and live a good life these years. Our family must have a good reputation when we move to Chang'an."
Li Chang nodded. Su Ce sold the Earl's Mansion in Chang'an City for one hundred food. Everyone in the army thought that Su Ce was a trustworthy person, but that reputation only spread among the army. Since the Su family
To take root in Chang'an, you also need to have a good reputation among the people.
"Previously, the Dai family also wanted to get involved in our family's Baiguo Niang, but all our wines were sold to restaurants. The young men in the family have grown up and have more and more places to spend money. I still want to get involved.
I am planning to tell you when to make more Baiguo Niang. It happens that the Dai family is in Yongpingfang, which will be a neighbor in the future. I can give the Dai family an increased share of Baiguo Niang and let them go to Gyeonggi.
Our family has more income from selling outside, and the Dai family should agree to buy half of the place." Li Changlue thought about it and felt that what Su Ce said was reasonable.
However, everyone has different ideas. Regarding his position, he has not thought about what will happen to the Su family in the future. It is just that the Su family does need more income on a daily basis. This is his specialty as the great steward of the Su family.
"Okay, let's settle it. You are busy during this period, so don't hang around here. Your eldest son is eight years old. In a few years, he will be put into the army to take good care of you. You can be knighted.
It's not like his ambition cannot be realized!" Su Ce didn't tell Li Chang, it wasn't because he didn't trust Li Chang. They had a life-long friendship, so there was no need to talk about trust.
Li Chang was also a captain in the army at that time. If it were not for his age and disability, he would not be famous in the army. However, people's fortunes are fleeting. Some people stand out and others are mediocre.
The same is true among the government soldiers. How many of them have wasted their years, accomplished nothing, and ended up disabled and retired from the army.
Li Chang didn't think much about it. When he came to Su Ce, he just wanted to be attached to the Su family so that future generations could enjoy the blessings. Now everything he had was given by Su Ce, otherwise he could only count on a little in his hometown.
Live out the rest of your life.
I got Su Ce's guarantee today. The eldest son of the family will not have to worry about it in the future. Su Ce is younger than himself. Although he has offended the prince now, there are many things that cannot be decided by the prince and the saint in one word.
There is a decision.
Su Ce, who has been dormant for several years, if there is a war, returns to the army, he will still be the strong general who cuts across the enemy's formation.
Li Chang thought a lot along the way. When he came to Chang'an, Li Chang's horizons were much broader. Su Ce and the remnant army like them both prospered and suffered losses. This trust is hard-earned and can only be achieved if we live and die together.
.
Su Ce is a person worth following. Not to mention how good the lives of the villagers in Suzhuang are. After all, the nobles all treat their villagers in the same way. When the master's family goes to war, it is not the food but these that protect the family.
Ordinary banker.
Therefore, the better you treat these bankers on weekdays, the less you have to worry about your family members when you go to the battlefield. If something happens, these bankers will protect your family with their lives.
And Li Chang understood better that the Su family spent at least tens of thousands of yuan elsewhere every year. Each family of the imperial soldiers who followed Su Ce into battle received money and food sent by the Su family. There were not many nobles in Chang'an who could do this.
.
Li Chang rode his horse and watched the farmers who had finished mowing the grass and followed the boys at home to draw military battle formations. He knew that Su Ce's kindness in the past two years had an effect.
The Dai family's housekeeper invited me several times and went to check it out today. If I can buy the Dai family's place in Yonghefang, there will be space for building workshops and other things in the future. Besides, the Dai family's main industry is water transportation. The two families
The cooperation can be closer.
Just taking this opportunity, Baiguo Brewing was sold all over the world. Those food towns were growing up. When they entered Zhe Chong Mansion, they would have to wear good armor. If I had the money to make my armor thicker, I would also
He was unable to become disabled and had no choice but to withdraw from the army.
Li Chang thought a lot along the way, which Su Ce didn't know.
Su Ce had just finished drinking the medicine with a frown on his face. They were all soothing medicines. He got angry in the East Palace a few days ago. Su Ce knew that he had never been so extreme before. Now when he saw blood, he felt that his whole body had become violent.
stand up.
This was a heart disease. Su Ce knew what he was hiding from. When he recalled the battle at Xiaohe Beacon Castle, his eyes were filled with blood. Those hungry eyes and the madness before his death made Su Ce still dare not recall. After a night of fighting, after the madness,
Hungry Hu's corpses were piled inside and outside the Beacon Fort, and the smell of blood was still fresh in Su Ce's memory.
Su Ce knew that the person who tied the bell needed to untie it. If he wanted to cure this disease, he probably had to go to the battlefield. As veterans in the army always said: "If you kill less, you will always be afraid. If you kill more, you will no longer be afraid."
