Meeting an acquaintance was something I didn't expect, but of course... it wasn't that unexpected.
After all, for Li Sheng, there are already acquaintances in Chang'an. Among other things, isn't Ying'er, who has been working in Zizhenzhai, an acquaintance? Not to mention...
But Li Sheng never expected that he would meet Changsun Wuji!
The image of this guy in my eyes is basically the impression I got from my superficial understanding of history. He is an important member of the descendants and has a deep scheming mind... In short, he is quite difficult to mess with.
When he was conquering Goguryeo in the north, Li Sheng began to enter a state of leisurely and leisurely performance. This was not only because he was a "king with a different surname" who shared the same surname as Li with His Majesty the Emperor, and he had to avoid getting too high a title to avoid spreading jokes among the people.
, there is no reason to get into trouble in vain, not only because the overall idea is to keep a low profile, but also because... there is this big crocodile with the stealth skill around, so if you don't keep a low profile, you will really be asking for trouble. As a result...
As soon as I turned around, I accidentally went for a walk in Chang'an, and I actually ran into this guy...
Li Sheng lamented in his heart. If he really wanted to say how much he was afraid of this guy, it would be impossible to talk about it. Things in this world... in the final analysis, force speaks for itself. But after all... it didn't get to that point.
If he fell out, it would seem that he was not confident enough. After all... This kind of high-end literati's most troublesome thing made Li Sheng feel unhappy for a while, but he calmed down and decided to start a fight with this coward.
Escape, this can minimize the probability of trouble happening.
but……
Before Li Sheng had time to say anything, Changsun Wuji showed a warm and warm smile, stepped forward and said, "I never thought I would meet the Holy King here. I am also meeting a few old friends today."
Yes, I think the Holy King also knows these old friends, so why not share a table..."
Li Sheng was startled when he heard this, thinking about what was going on. He had been doing this for a long time, but he was not acting alone, but was socializing in the upper class of the Tang Dynasty. As soon as he heard this, Li Sheng knew that this eldest son Wuji
Friends of this country must be the Duke of the State or the Minister, they are all big shots - although I have a title of nobility, it is not low, but the problem lies in the fact that my title is not low...
If it's someone else, that's fine. It's just common people. You can make friends by yourself. Anyway, it doesn't matter if it's not the kind of folk genius - the ancient emperors were also very taboo about ministers' daughters marrying, because it meant that the ministers were powerful in winning over the people.
Talented people. But it is a problem to make friends among ministers. The intention of having evil intentions is simply too obvious.
but……
After Changsun Wuji said this, just a second later, Li Sheng realized that there might be something wrong with his thinking.
Because before he could refuse, he saw another little old man with a smile walking out from behind the old cunning Chang Sun... This little old man was none other than another acquaintance of his, Lao Fang!
That is, Lao Li's good friend.
As soon as he saw this guy, Li Sheng felt a thump in his heart almost instantly, because the next moment... no, it didn't take the next moment, Li Sheng knew who else he would meet - as soon as his head turned, he saw
When it comes to Li Er, Lao Wei, and Lao Du...
These unruly people actually happened to me again!
He always bumps into these old businessmen from Chang'an no matter what, which makes Li Sheng couldn't help but feel chills running down his back. He can't help but think to himself that these guys are definitely not perverts? Are they deliberately letting this go? Otherwise, how could it happen?
What a coincidence!
But in the blink of an eye, the next moment came, Li Sheng knew in his heart that this was actually not a strange thing - because it was actually easy to understand.
Lao Li and others are all merchants. Although in my opinion, these guys are undoubtedly the type who are relatively weak and have no enterprising spirit to make a fortune, merchants are still merchants after all, and they always need to travel around.
of.
And in addition, as businessmen, these guys are also businessmen in Chang'an, so they not only need to travel all over the country, but also have to contact all kinds of contacts - considering that these unscrupulous people travel all over the country... In other words, they need to find and capture business opportunities.
Since his abilities are not very good, it is obvious that he has to work hard at weaving connections. Of course, Lao Li and his gang are pretty good at this aspect, but this is also the reason why Li Sheng feels that his head is a bit big.
…
The connections these guys have are ridiculous!
Meeting Li Jing, Li Sheng felt that this was scary enough - think about how many big bosses there were in the past life, how many of them could know someone of this level? And this Lao Li, he not only knew Li Jing, but also knew Li Ji, and...
...Obviously these guys know more than just Li Jing and Li Ji from Chang'an nobles. It is very possible...
No, guessing that this kind of thing does not need to be "very likely" is not necessary, because there is no doubt that Li Jing and Li Ji are definitely just the tip of the iceberg. There are still a large number of officials and clans in Chang'an. It is possible that Lao Li and the others are among these nobles.
They all know each other in batches, and they may deliver goods to people's homes every three days or something.
He might even open a ladder for the host’s banquet guests from time to time!
Knowing so many noble people in Chang'an, Li Sheng finally understood why Mao and these guys had given them many opportunities to make a fortune. They had a business of sea trade and shipbuilding in the past, and recently they had a business of making a fortune.
There is a business of bicycles and tricycles - it stands to reason that if there is any big boss in the future, there will be business opportunities of this level - after all, it is a huge technological innovation with a market value that can be seen with the naked eye! All kinds of financing activities have taken off long ago, and as a result
These old guys were surprised...everyone at the wine table clapped their hands and said it was a good thing, and they seemed to be sincere at first glance - but then they turned around and were not busy working on any projects.
This time...
Li Sheng was speechless and finally understood. These old guys really have great connections... This business is what they eat!
Seeing this, the two old guys, Lao Fang and Changsun Wuji, then talked about how they knew each other. I didn't expect to meet the young master by chance today. It was really a blessing in my life. Please invite the young master...
While talking, even Old Li, Old Wei, and Old Du came over, and each of them called themselves to sit down with smiles on their faces.
Li Sheng sighed secretly in his heart. He had no other choice but to obey these old fools. After all...
After much deliberation, I have been here for a long time. I have been invited by someone kindly, and if I refuse it again, then this "malicious" person might be said to be "suspicious" in the future. It is better to just deal with it and wait for a while.
It's serious to eat and drink a lot of food and wine...
At the same time, Li Er and others stared at Li Sheng's expression...
