The first rebel of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1281 Are you trying to resist the decree?
Because how much is five watermelons?

Compared with other rewards, Duan Lun wants other things more, such as money, such as other things, but not watermelon.

Because the watermelons sold by Shengtang Group are already affordable by most people.

Li Shimin actually used it to reward himself, which made him a little hard to accept.

Duan Lun's performance was a little slow, which made Li Shimin very unhappy.

Looking at him, he didn't seem very happy.

"What? Isn't my reward good?"

"No no no, Your Majesty, such a reward is too heavy, and I can't bear it! The watermelon should be eaten by the concubines and princes and princesses!"

Duan Lun said quickly.

Li Shimin was even more unhappy.

"I've said it all, this is a reward. Are you trying to resist the decree?"

Such an imposing situation is very uncomfortable!But who made him the emperor? !
So Duan Lun quickly said: "No, no, I obey the order!"

It seems that this has to be taken over.Something is better than nothing!
Li Shimin said with satisfaction: "Very good, I am very pleased!"

Duan Lun thought, this Li Shimin really knows how to behave.

Or is it that he doesn't know that watermelons are not very expensive now.Thought these watermelons were still hard to come by?It's been so long that I don't know it!

It would be a shame to know that.I work so hard.Only worth a few watermelons?No one would be happy to change it!

Moreover, these watermelons cannot be stored forever, and if they are not eaten in time, they will go bad...

Even though he said that, he didn't dare to say it, for fear that Li Shimin would be offended and put himself in deep danger.

Therefore, he could only leave the palace with five watermelons.

"Your Majesty, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave first!"

"Certainly, you have to make that calculator well, you know? The more output, the better!"

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

Duan Lun then turned and left the palace.

In the entire palace, only Dai Zhou and Li Shimin were there.

Dai Zhou saw everything that happened just now. At this moment, he had no other emotions except sighing.He was even more afraid to speak, for fear that those watermelons would fall on him.

"Dai Zhou, won't you go together?" Li Shimin asked suddenly.

This tool man is about to leave after the verification just now.

But he didn't intend to leave.

That's why Li Shimin asked this question.

"Your Majesty, I have something to report!"

"Oh? What's the matter?" Li Shimin seemed to be in a good mood.He thought he was doing a great favour.It also saved a lot of money for the court.

Asking questions is also very active.

"About the recent caravan from Tianzhu!"

Li Shimin didn't have anything in particular he wanted to hear about the Tianzhu people.I feel that it is very normal for these people to come to Chang'an. This is a non-governmental trade, which is very helpful for tax revenue. He hopes that more foreigners can come to Datang to trade!

so.He just asked a random question.

"What happened to them?"

"They transported a large amount of gold into Chang'an City!"

"Lots of gold? What are they going to trade for?"

Li Shimin stood up abruptly.

These are money.

A lot of gold, how much is that?What is their purpose?
"Yes! Plenty!"

"How many? Have you ever calculated it?"

"countless!"

Dai Zhou said so, and this also has his reason.

Because their number cannot be counted.

After all, it is impossible for them to step forward to intercept each other and count other people's property.

Datang people can't do such a thing.In that case, who would dare to do business with them in the future!

"countless?"

Li Shimin was a little shocked.

Use the word countless times!

How much gold does this have to have.

Then asked again:

"Then what did they bring the gold to Chang'an?"

"It seems to be doing business with Shengtang Group!"

It is an open secret that these people came to Chang'an.

"Doing business with Shengtang Group? Do they need so much gold? Then they buy a lot?"

Li Shimin was very puzzled.

This is doing business with Li Yin, how can I get so much gold?It's more about replacing some things that Li Yin needs, those are what the group wants, like medicinal materials!

"This minister is probably the tuition fees left by those foreign students before."

"What tuition fees need so much money?"

"As far as I know, the sixth prince has charged a high price to the Tianzhu people. Every foreign student needs [-]% of the money! Otherwise, I won't teach you!"

"Oh? If so, that kid did a good job!"

Li Shimin said in admiration.It's so refreshing to treat them differently!

Yes, Li Yin did a really good job.

In fact, the money is the cost of those calls.

Of course, Sheng Tang Group will not let Li Shimin know about this. Once he finds out, he will definitely blow the sky.

"This kid knows how to handle things like this. That's fine. It's best to take all the money from the Tianzhu people for his own use. As long as he can get it into the pockets of the Shengtang Group, it is equivalent to entering Chang'an. Datang's pocket!"

He still didn't say half of what he said, but it actually went into his court's pocket.

After all, the imperial court also collects taxes.

That money will still fall into Li Shimin's pocket in the end.

"Your Majesty can think so, I can rest assured!"

Dai Zhou said so.

Li Shimin heard that the meaning was not quite right.

"What's wrong? Why did you say that suddenly?"

"The minister is worried that His Majesty has misunderstood the sixth prince again! Going to embarrass him again!"

"Dai Zhou, Dai Zhou, don't you know what I am? Will I make things difficult for him? If he doesn't make things difficult for me, that's fine."

"Yes, what His Majesty said is absolutely true!"

"Anything else?"

"It doesn't seem to be there anymore!"

"No, just go down!"

Li Shimin walked to the window, Dai Zhou nodded in agreement, and was about to leave.

But was called again.

"and many more"

"Is there anything else, Your Majesty?"

"Regarding the matter of eternal life medicine, have you ever gotten some accurate information from Shengtang Group?"

Dai Zhou smiled wryly and said, "Your Majesty is too flattering to the minister, how can the minister's information be as complete as yours!"

He said so.

"Although you say that, you have a good relationship with the two people surnamed Su. Has he revealed anything to you?"

"Your Majesty, there is really no such thing! Besides, the sixth prince said that all the progress will be reflected in the newspaper. Your Majesty just needs to wait patiently!"

"I just didn't see it in the newspaper! Otherwise, why would I ask you?"

Li Shimin was a little angry.

Afterwards, he said, "Okay, it's none of your business, you can go down."

The originally good mood turned a little bit worse.

Dai Zhou was relieved and left the palace quickly.

If you don't leave, I'm afraid Li Shimin will talk nonsense again.

And when he left, Li Shimin didn't sleep all night.

I don't even know what to think.

But in the tenement building, Li Yin was receiving envoys from Tianzhu.
