"Hey, you brat, you are still pretending to be stupid in front of me? But remember, no matter who asks, you will be killed. The person you are waiting to block is the King of Hejian County, not His Majesty!
"
Cheng Zhijie's eyes widened, and Cheng Chusi jumped back in fright. Then he showed a satisfied smile and said: "Now that we have entered Li's Manor, but we met that strange man? What, does that strange man want to accept you as his disciples?
"
"Aye, that young master is young and handsome, no more than twenty years old at most. And His Majesty respects him very much!"
Cheng Chusi said quickly.
"Um?"
Cheng Zhijie was startled, then his face turned serious, "You little bastard, stop being so careless. That strange man is not waiting for you, just say so!"
"ah?"
Cheng Chusi looked shocked again and quickly explained everything that happened in Lijiazhuang.
After hearing this, Cheng Zhijie sighed heavily.
"Alas, you blind boy entered the Treasure Mountain and returned empty-handed. Did you know that these two books, "Alphabets of Enlightenment" and "Numerical Arithmetic" were written by that strange man?"
"This book?"
Cheng Chusi was startled, and then his face became full of horror. "Fortunately, that strange man didn't take a fancy to us. Otherwise, if we had to learn these things every day, no matter how hard we are, our heads would burst!"
"Prince, during this period of time, these two books have been sold, almost more than 100,000 copies!"
After hearing this, Cheng Zhijie stared, then thought of something and said helplessly.
"One hundred thousand copies?"
Cheng Chusi was startled.
"You can earn at least 10,000 yuan, and the amount is still increasing!" Cheng Zhijie continued.
"So much?"
Cheng Chusi was shocked and regretful.
"Hehe, you must be regretting it now!"
Cheng Zhijie said with a proud face, "If you, the boy, become a disciple of that strange man, although you won't make as much money as the prince, your monthly pocket money will at least be more than your father!"
After hearing this, Cheng Chusi's eyes couldn't help but shine.
"Aye, I must join that master's disciples!"
Cheng Chusi's face was full of determination.
…
The next day.
Li Chengqian pulled several carts of copper coins and arrived outside Lijiazhuang again.
However, unexpectedly, before entering the village, he was stopped again.
When I got out of the carriage and saw a group of people in front of me, my eyelids jumped.
"Cheng Chusi, Li Chongyi, Yuchi Baolin, Fang Yizhi, Du Gou, what are you doing here?"
"Your Highness, I would like to become a disciple!"
Cheng Chusi, Li Chongyi and others all said in unison.
"Apprenticeship?"
Li Chengqian was startled, and then he looked angry, "You are so nonsense. As the prince of the East Palace, how can I accept you as my teacher?"
"Your Highness, you have misunderstood. We want to learn from that strange man!"
Cheng Chusi's mouth trembled slightly and he quickly explained.
"Um?"
This time, Li Chengqian was slightly startled, and then a trace of anger flashed across his face.
"If that's the case, then why are you trying to stop me?"
"Your Highness, we want to enter the village!"
Cheng Chusi said quickly.
"Go into the village and look for the King of Hejian County. It's useless to look for me!"
Li Chengqian's face was expressionless.
"Your Highness, we know that even the Prince of Hejian County has no control over this matter!"
Cheng Chusi said.
"Then who can take care of it? Who do you want to go to?"
At this moment, Li Chengqian had a childish temper.
"It's Your Highness!"
"I?"
"Your Highness is the disciple of that strange man. No one's words are as effective as His Highness's!"
"Hmph, my words are useless on this matter. When I became a disciple of my young master, my father personally begged me many times before he reluctantly accepted me as his disciple!"
"Your Highness is the Crown Prince of the East Palace, how dare that strange man do this?"
"In front of Master, I am just the prince of Hejian County!"
"Your Highness, can you take me in again? I'll beg you in person!"
"I can't take it in!"
"What kind of items is being transported by Your Highness? Can we be the porters?"
"One thousand nine hundred and twenty thousand dollars, you can't move it!"
"One thousand nine hundred and twenty coins? Your Highness underestimates me. Baolin and I can move it!"
"How about you compete with Li Fu?"
"Forehead!"
After hearing this, Cheng Chusi glanced at Li Fu who was standing aside, and his body couldn't help but shrink.
Then, after thinking for a while, he shouted loudly: "Your Highness, can you give me a message for the young master? We also want to worship him as our teacher!"
"Cheng Chusi, your name is known to everyone in Chang'an City. You are not the material to study at all. Why do you want to worship me as your teacher?"
"I won't lie to Your Highness, we want to make money! Although we are the legitimate sons and future heirs of the Duke's Palace, our monthly pocket money is only two hundred coins. If we eat out for a meal, we will have no money.
Got it!"
"make money?"
Hearing this, Li Chengqian's expression condensed and he stared at Cheng Chusi closely, "You want to steal money from me?"
"Your Highness has misunderstood!"
Cheng Chusi looked anxious.
Li Chongyi also quickly explained: "Your Highness, judging from the skills displayed by that strange man, there will definitely be more types of sofas and "Enlightenment Letters"-like objects in the future. By then, His Highness alone will definitely
I don’t have that much energy to sell everything.”
"We, Aye, are both former ministers of the Prince of Qin's Palace, and are the most trusted people by His Highness and Your Majesty. With us, we can help His Highness sell the new items invented by that strange man in Lijiazhuang."
"I, the East Palace, can sell it myself, so I don't need to trouble you to wait!" Li Chengqian said.
"As the Crown Prince of the East Palace, His Highness can sell books. If he sells things like sofas, there will be criticism from the court."
Li Chongyi slowly shook his head and said again: "Besides, money can move people's hearts the most. At first, it would be better to earn less money. If it were more, there would be countless jealous people in the court writing letters. By then, Your Majesty will
We are in a dilemma, and His Highness cannot even keep those shops."
"And if we and others share the worries, His Highness will pay less attention!"
After hearing this, Li Chengqian was already a little shaken. Just thinking of the master's temper, he couldn't help but glance at Cheng Chusi and others with worry.
"However, the Master is indifferent in nature and is not keen on making money. Moreover, the Master likes to be quiet and does not like to make trouble!"
"Your Highness doesn't need to worry about this matter at all. We only need to inform that strange man that we want to become a disciple. Moreover, Your Highness can also say more. In order to become a disciple, we will be blocked outside Lijiazhuang every day. Even,
Your Highness can name the dandy we are waiting for in Chang'an City.
According to that strange man’s character who doesn’t want to cause trouble, he will definitely recruit us in. If that strange man hates us, he will ask Your Majesty to drive us away. At that time, our goal will have been half achieved!
"
Li Chongyi said with confidence.
"Well done to you, Li Chongyi!"
After hearing this, Li Chengqian couldn't help but be startled.
"In this case, I will definitely inform you, Master!"
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Li Chongyi, Cheng Chusi and others were all overjoyed.
Afterwards, Li Chongyi and others quickly moved out of the way to let Li Chengqian and others in.
"Your Highness, are you really planning to send a message to people like Cheng Chusi?"
After entering the village, Li Fu asked quickly.
"Why not?" Li Chengqian said.
"Your Highness, Cheng Chusi and the others are the biggest dandies in Chang'an City!" Li Fu looked anxious!
"However, their Aye is an old minister of the Qin Palace, and he is the most trusted minister of my father!"
