My wife is Wu Zetian

Chapter 798 Get ready to climb a high branch!

Lian Huo was stunned for a moment. He really couldn't believe what his brother said.

How could Feng Laoliu and those ordinary people be as high as Li Siwen and the Duke of the country?

This is no different from a fantasy.

"I didn't believe it at first, but except for Li Siwen and the British Duke, whose noble son can be escorted by hundreds of cavalry when traveling.

It's useless to say that now, just seize the time to collect gold.

If we can't collect this one thousand taels of gold in one day, then the Li family will have to rush into the county and uproot our family! "

Lian Yu is depressed, why are you talking about that now.

He knew Li Yanran's power better than anyone. When the cavalry charged, not to mention the hundreds of people, even if everyone in the Lian family was pulled up, they would still be no match.

"I believe what Lao San said, no one can have so many cavalry, so hurry up and raise money!"

Lian Qing glanced at Lian Huo, then at Lian Yu, and directly ordered to raise money.

"Brother, that's a thousand taels of gold, which is enough to be converted into copper coins.

Where are we going to get all this gold in one day? "

Lian Huo was depressed. Who would tell him where he was going to get one thousand taels of gold?

"Let our shops put up notices, exchanging gold jewelry at high prices, and let you women take out all their private treasures.

No matter what, this gold must be collected. One thousand taels is not enough, at least one thousand five hundred taels of gold is needed.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that we must not miss! "

Lian Qing sneered and told his response.

"Brother, what do you mean? Why do you want to collect one thousand five hundred taels?

What else is called a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity? I don’t understand why! "

Now Lian Huo's mind couldn't turn around.

Raising your own money is still an opportunity.

"Brother, do you want to take this opportunity to climb the big tree of the Li family?"

Lian Yu on the side seemed to understand what his brother meant.

“That’s right, the Li family has a great cause, and in the past we couldn’t even see it even if we begged for it.

Now that the person is here, we naturally have to seize the opportunity and make good friends with him.

If we can really establish some relationship with the other party, then our Lian family will flourish.

Let alone a small success by then, it is not impossible for us to develop in Chang'an! "

Lian Qing smiled. He really wanted to take the opportunity to have a relationship with Li Yanran.

After all, if small clans like them want to continue and develop, they must constantly look for opportunities.

Only by finding bigger branches and stronger people can we achieve better development.

They had a connection with Yang Zhizhong by chance before, and the other person's words alone increased the Lian family's property several times.

If we can climb the big tree of Li Ji this time, the Lian family will definitely be able to prosper.

"But who are you going to give this money to? I'm afraid they don't care about our little money at all!"

Lian Huo frowned. Sometimes people just accept the money if you don't give it to them.

After all, those big aristocratic families just missed more than this.

"The young man of the Li family doesn't like him, so don't the people under him also like him?

One thousand taels of gold was given to the young gentleman, and the remaining five hundred taels were given to the men of the noble family of the Li family.

As long as he is willing to accept our money, do you still worry about not having a chance in the future? "

Lian Qing smiled slightly. Money may mean nothing to some people, but it is still very tempting to people at the bottom.

As long as they can bribe their subordinates first, the rest will fall into place.

"High, my brother is far-sighted, I'm convinced!"

Lian Yu's eyes lit up, this eldest brother was indeed his eldest brother, he was just more understanding than he thought.

Judging from Di Renjie's posture, he must be highly regarded by the young man of the Li family.

If this trick really works, then the Lian family will be a blessing in disguise this time.

"Now that you've accepted it, why don't you go quickly? We must collect one thousand five hundred taels of gold!"

"Here!"

"Here!"

The two of them nodded together and ran directly outside.

Looking at the backs of the two of them, Lian Qing also smiled, leaned on the chair and closed his eyes.

The Lian family took action again. First, they went to various jewelry stores in the city to conduct a frantic raid. All pure gold jewelry was packed away without asking the price.

If these were not enough, Lian Jia also posted a post in his shop to buy gold jewelry in the city at high prices.

Lian Qing also immediately went out to invite all the wealthy households in the county and began to discuss buying gold jewelry from them.

Everyone knows that gold is a rare thing. You can bring it with you on a regular basis, but it is also a hard currency in extraordinary times. You can buy it anywhere.

When they heard that Lian Qing wanted to exchange for gold jewelry, they were probably unwilling.

When Lian Qing saw this, he also set up a dock. Anyone who was willing to give them the gold would not only be given enough money, but also a favor.

In the future, whenever something happens to me, they will definitely provide convenience.

When everyone saw Lian Qing acting like this, they didn't dare to say anything more.

After all, this Lian family is one of the most powerful in Dongshan, and even the county magistrate gives them a lot of face.

If they give face, they are friends. If they don't give face, I'm afraid they will suffer disaster in the future.

Just when the Lian family was raising gold, Li Yanran also entered the county.

Looking at the depressing scene in front of her, she also frowned.

"Di Renjie, why do you think Dongshan is so deserted?"

"Probably because the family is the only one in the family!"

Di Renjie sighed. He could naturally see why Dongshan County was like this.

Most of the shops facing the street are under the banner of the Lian family. It is obvious that the Lian family has the ability to influence the economy of the county.

If things continue like this, it won’t take long for Dongshan’s people to be in dire straits.

"You also guessed it, this company is really hateful!"

Li Yanran nodded, Di Renjie thought the same as him. This Lian family is really a cancer. If they are not eliminated, the foundation of Datang will be completely destroyed by them sooner or later.

"Well, it's so abominable!"

Di Renjie immediately stepped aside.

"Let's go, don't eat!"

After speaking, Li Yanran turned around and headed out of the city.

"what happened?"

Di Renjie was stunned and didn't know what Li Yanran meant.

"I have no appetite. I don't want to eat. Go back to Fengjia Village!"

Li Yanran waved her hand, it would be amazing if she could survive this Dongshan situation.

"This"

Di Renjie glanced at Li Feng, and then whispered a few words in his ear.

Li Feng nodded, and after escorting Li Yanran out of the city, he also ordered the Imperial Army to leave.

When Li Yanran returned to Fengjia Village, the leaving imperial army also drove a dozen sheep and appeared in front of her.

"Di Renjie, what does this mean?"

Looking at the sheep in front of her, Li Yanran was stunned for a moment.

"Young Master doesn't want to make money for the Lian family, so I can only send people to the nearby village to collect these sheep, and let Chef Fan cook the Dongshan sheep for you!"

Di Renjie smiled at Li Yanran and said what he meant directly.

Since you want to eat, how can we, the subordinates, disappoint you?

"You are still thoughtful, Fan Ze, Fan Ze!"

Li Yanran went directly to call Fan Ze over.

"Young Master, what do you call me for?"

Fan Ze rushed over anxiously, wondering what happened to Li Yanran.

Didn’t you say you were going to the county town to eat delicious food? Why did you come back in the blink of an eye?

"Get ready to cook."

"???"

Hearing this, Fan Ze was stunned.

You didn't say you were coming back for dinner, and you didn't send anyone to prepare it.

You are making things difficult for yourself.

"Why are you standing there? That's your food. Today I'll treat everyone to a roasted whole lamb."

Li Yanran patted Fan Ze on the shoulder and handed over the errand.

"I don't have the ability for this young man!"

Fan Ze is depressed. If you don't say it, it will be a big job.

More than a dozen sheep, roasting a whole lamb, I couldn't do it even if I was exhausted.

"It doesn't matter if I don't have the ability. If I don't have enough people, I'll look for helpers, people from Fengjia Village."

Li Yanran didn't care what he said. As long as she could eat the roasted whole lamb, Fan Ze would have to prepare the rest.

"Fan Ze, got it!"

Fan Ze also sighed and saluted directly to find Feng Laoliu to borrow someone.

There were just a few butchers in their group who had killed pigs. With their help, the job was pretty much done.

Looking at the roasted whole lamb that was delivered, Li Yanran also moved her index finger.

Fan Ze's craftsmanship is really good. He was able to make such a delicious roast lamb in such a hurry.

She cut off a piece of mutton leg meat with a knife and ate it in one bite.

"This tastes really good, everyone should try it!"

"this?"

"You can eat what you are told, no matter what, it's all nonsense!"

Li Yanran glared at Di Renjie, took out a knife, cut a piece of mutton and ate it happily.

The meal was quite enjoyable. After eating and drinking, Li Yanran also ordered Di Renjie to make preparations and set off on the road after getting the Lian family's gold.

Time passed little by little, and it was afternoon in a blink of an eye. At this moment, a dozen knights and two carriages came outside.

"The real master is here, Di Renjie, go and support him, and I won't see them.

Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it anymore and I'll let others kill them! "

Li Yanran turned around and entered the house, while Di Renjie immediately led people to greet him at the entrance of the village.

The Lian family members stopped at the entrance of the village and waited outside, not daring to go in at all.

After all, Fengjia Village is like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den in their eyes. If they can't help it, they might as well not go in.

"Two brothers, people are here!"

Seeing Di Renjie's figure, Lian Yu immediately spoke to his two brothers.

"Then why are you still standing there? Hurry up and greet us!"

Lian Qing slapped Lian Yu directly and took the lead to greet Di Renjie.

"Lian Qing!"

"Lian Huo!"

"Lian Yu!"

"I've met Mr. Lang!"

The three of them saluted Di Renjie together, their eyes full of flattery.

"I don't care who you are, did you bring the money?"

Di Renjie waved his hand, he had no time to talk nonsense with these rogues.

"One thousand taels of gold have been collected."

Lian Qing saluted, and then a carriage came slowly. There were two boxes inside, both of which were shining gold.

"This is?"
