God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 572 Zhen Guan, Eight Years

The charity gala was held in a huge shop on the third floor of the shopping center, and the host was Du He.

Li Er and Empress Changsun sat at the front, followed by the bigwigs from the imperial court, and the big family from Chang'an sat at the back.

For this sale, Empress Changsun actually didn't bring many things. There were only [-] items in total, all of which could be produced in the palace, but they were not ordinary.

So Du He temporarily changed the sale to an auction.

The first item was a Buddha lamp, worth about [-] guan, and the final transaction price was [-] guan.

Everyone also knew in their hearts that it is not important whether they can buy something worthwhile in this auction. The key is that they can show their faces in front of His Majesty and the Queen. It is common, and it is not new to buy it at twenty times the price.

Soon, all [-] items were auctioned off, and Empress Changsun received a total of [-] guan.

Empress Changsun announced in public that she would donate [-] of them to appease the people in the prefectures and counties affected by the snow disaster in Gyeonggi County. The sales shop in the harem will open from tomorrow, and auctions will be held every ten days thereafter.Everyone quickly praised and expressed their support for the event.

Empress Changsun got the money, and those who got the items got a chance to show their faces, and everyone was happy.

However, Du He was the happiest.

He said slowly: "Everyone, our shopping mall will open tomorrow. If you want to open a shop in the shopping mall, you must seize today's opportunity. If you sign a contract today, you will get a [-]% discount. Tomorrow The original price will be restored! In the future, our Changan International Shopping Center will face the entire Tang Dynasty, the entire world, and now, many foreign envoys have approached me, wanting to open a store here..."

Before Du He finished speaking, several well-known businessmen in Chang'an stood up and said, "Houyi County Marquis, please leave me a shop, I want to open a shop here..."

"And I!"

"Me too!"

The people present are not fools. They refused Du He’s invitation before because they were worried that opening a store here would not only make no money, but would also make a loss. But now I have seen with my own eyes that this shopping center is as luxurious as a palace. Stuff, it is also a kind of enjoyment to wander around.

Therefore, many knowledgeable people know that Du He is definitely not bragging.

Even though the rent here is much more expensive, there are still many transfers.

The key point is that there is a shop in the imperial palace here, which was opened by the empress herself. Maybe one day the empress is happy and goes to a nearby shop to buy something. That is definitely a good thing for Guangzong Yaozu.

Therefore, everyone was very enthusiastic.

On the contrary, Changsun Wuji, Chen Shuda and others seemed calm.

Changsun Wuji said, "Let's have a look again!"

That night, when Changsun Wuji returned to Sikong Mansion, he suddenly received a message from Wang Fu that there were only two shops left in the shopping center, and if he didn't make a move, it might be too late.

Changsun Wuji was taken aback, and sent Wang Fu to the shopping center to negotiate early the next morning, and won the remaining two shops at the original price.

Afterwards, Chen Shuda complained to his boss, Sikong Mansion, and he agreed to see what he had agreed to. As a result, Changsun Wuji didn't keep his promise, and even bought the remaining two shops at once. calm.

That is, on this day, Chang'an International Shopping Center opened without any ceremony, very low-key.

However, the business is extremely hot.

At the beginning, people who came here to buy things were aimed at pandas and alpacas. Later, everyone found that, except for alpacas and pandas, this shopping center is very beautifully built, and the things it sells are the best in Chang’an City. The quality is guaranteed, much better than in Dongxi and Xishi.

As a result, more and more people come to the shopping mall to buy things, and the whole shopping mall is overcrowded every day.

Those who did not rent a shop because of hesitation at the beginning, that is a regret.

The twelfth lunar month passed like this, and it was the Chinese New Year.

……

The eighth year of Zhenguan has arrived.

Du He gave all the workers of Dream Group a ten-day vacation. Those who want to go home will go home, and those who don't want to go home or have no home at all will spend the New Year in Dream Group.But for the workers, the most practical thing is that each worker has a Chinese New Year reward of 100 Wen. When many people received the money, they were so excited that they burst into tears.

Du He took Du Ruhui to Dream Group to celebrate the New Year with everyone.

On the night of New Year's Eve, Li Yuanshu, Li Lizhi, and Li Ke returned to the palace.

Du He took everyone to Dream Group, while Yuan Tiangang and others were in Beast King Mountain, while Yuchi Baolin and Mu Zongsi went to Lantian Coal Mine.

After the new year, before the arrival of the Lantern Festival, Dream Group resumed production.

Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner.

During the Lantern Festival, the imperial court held a grand lantern party in Chang'an City. In the past, the lantern party was held in the Qujiang Lake area, but this year it was changed to Renmin Avenue.

That night, Li Er hosted a banquet for the important officials in the court, all of whom were princes, nobles and other bigwigs, and one of them was Du He.

After the dinner was over, everyone dispersed, and Li Er called Du He into the imperial study alone.

Li Erhong said with a full face: "Du He, do you know why I summoned you alone?"

Du He shook his head.

Li Er said: "Don't forget your identity. You are not only the Marquis of Huyi County, but you are still in Tongzhou. For many years, the Dou family has not been resolved, but a murder case occurred in Tongzhou. Now I let you go to Tongzhou because of this. I have already discussed with Jingde. If you go to Tongzhou, you don’t have to stand Come out, you just need to stand behind Jingde, let him do whatever you want, anyway, he had the title of Yuchi Butcher back then, you are different, you have a long road ahead, I don't want your hands to be stained ...do you understand my painstaking efforts?"

Du He laughed and said: "Your Majesty, to put it bluntly, let me hide behind my back and slander others, and leave the scapegoat to Uncle Yuchi!"

Li Er nodded.

"Your Majesty, isn't it a little unreasonable?" Du He asked.

Li Er was speechless for a while: "Do you want the whole world to know that you are a great devil who kills without blinking an eye? In fact, it was Jingde who took the initiative to tell me about it. Yuchi Baolin is simple and honest, and in the future even if he inherits Wu Guogong I am afraid that the position is more than conservative and not enough to develop, so Jingde wants you to take care of Yuchi Baolin in the future!"

Poor parents in the world!

Du He nodded: "I understand, Your Majesty."

"Let's go in a few days, I will hold a celebration banquet for you and Jingde." Li Er said.

"Yes!"

When Li Er asked about Du He's plan, Du He was very frank, he had never considered this matter before.

When the soldiers come, they will block the water and cover them with soil, that's all.

Du He didn't leave the palace until late at night.

Walking to the gate of the imperial city, when he looked up, he saw Yuchi Gong looking at him with a smile.

Yu Chigong stepped on the snow, stepped forward, and patted Du He's shoulder: "Stinky boy, I'm going back to Tongzhou tonight. You can settle the Dream Group well before you come back. I've already made it clear to His Majesty that he I won't blame you."
