Tang Dynasty good doctor

Chapter 356 Everything is Ready
Li Zhi glanced at Wang Ping'an, and whispered: "This man's surname is Jin, I don't remember his name."

Wang Pingan said: "It's called Jin Sanduo, it seems that he has a good brain, and he used such words to attract the emperor's attention!"

They stood up, let the guards clear the way, passed through the crowd, came to Jin Sanduo, looked up to the gate tower, and saw Li Shimin nodded slightly, Shi Zhongchen called: "Bring this man up." , What exactly is it, explain it clearly to the emperor, the emperor will make decisions for him!"

Wang Pingan pulled Jin Sanduo up and said, "You'd better put on your clothes, you can't see the emperor with your shirt off, it's too rude!"

Jin Sanduo was in a hurry for a while, and then he yelled out the words. When he heard that he was going to see the emperor, he felt dizzy for a while!I just couldn't stop thinking: "I'm going to see the emperor? I'm really going to see the emperor? This matter must be recorded in the genealogy, the ancestor is me..."

Wang Pingan pulled him and said: "What are you thinking, hurry up, the emperor is waiting! No one can make the emperor wait!"

Jin San made a sound, got up, and the servant beside him handed him the clothes. He put on the body, but he couldn't stop muttering in his heart: "I need to add this sentence in the genealogy, the emperor wants to see me, I am deliberately slow." Tun Tun, let the emperor wait, the emperor has to wait, I have more face. The ancestor is me..."

He dawdled, and Li Zhi turned around and said, "Why is he so slow, why don't you change someone and let the merchant push another one out!"

Jin San is in a hurry, don't change people, I have already figured out how to write my family tree, if you replace me, what will happen to my family tree!He immediately moved quickly, followed Wang Ping'an's buttocks, and walked towards the city gate staggeringly.

When passing by other merchants, the merchants all said: "Jin Sanye, you have to make your words clear, let the emperor know the suffering of our merchants, and let us also raise the flag!"

Some even said: "Money is a trivial matter, and I don't want my children to be trapped by wolves. For big money, I have to spend small money!"

"Jin Sanye, be more eloquent. If you can't, replace me!" shouted the jealous businessman.

Jin San is very proud, I have to remember what these people said, and record them one by one in the genealogy.The ancestor was himself. On the way to meet the emperor, countless businessmen knelt down to see him off. Some were envious, and some were jealous...

After crossing the moat, entering the city gate, and going up the stairs, the three of them were escorted by the imperial guards to the front of the tower. Li Zhi went straight in, while Wang Pingan stood downstairs with Jin Sanduo, kneeling to the emperor together. salute.

As soon as the emperor waved his hand, Wang Pingan knew the etiquette, and thanked En to get up immediately, but Jin Sanduo didn't know it, he was still kneeling, sweating all over from nervousness, and even trembling.

Wang Pingan stood beside him, patted him lightly, and said, "Jin Sanduo, the emperor told you to get up, stop kneeling!"

But Jin Sanduo didn't get up, he stammered: "My lord, my lord, the villain's legs are weak, stand up, I can't stand up!"

Wang Pingan thought: "Look at how promising you are!" He stretched out his hands to help, but Jin Sanduo slumped into a pile like dough, stood up, and then went limp again.There was really no other way, so Wang Pingan had no choice but to raise his head and said, "Your Majesty, this man is surnamed Jin. He admires the beauty of the sky, and he worships the Emperor too much. May he kneel down as a show of respect!"

Li Shimin smiled slightly, worship?If this word is used well, all the people in the world should worship me, because I am the Lord of the world!He rushed down and nodded.Shi Zhongchen immediately said: "The emperor's permission, the people with the surname of Jin, please answer on your knees. If you have anything to say, come quickly!" He didn't know Jin Sanduo's name, so he had to mention it vaguely.

Jin Sanduo was sweating all over his body, and beads of sweat fell straight to the ground. For a while, he didn't know what to say. It was the first time he was talking to the emperor!
Wang Pingan said in a low voice: "Speak, the emperor is waiting!"

Let the emperor wait again, this has to be recorded in the genealogy!Jin San babbled and babbled, but he couldn't speak a complete sentence. He was so anxious that he almost fainted. He was usually able to speak, but how come he couldn't speak at a critical moment!
Wang Pingan leaned down and reminded: "Do you want your own business name to also play a big role?"

Jin Sanduo nodded quickly, he really meant that, otherwise why did he come up here, just to enrich his family tree!

Wang Pingan straightened up and said loudly: "Returning to the emperor, Jin Sanduo said that he saw that the imperial court was going to hold the Olympic Games, and he wanted to take this opportunity to display his own commercial flag on the venue, and asked the emperor for permission!"

Li Shimin didn't say anything, he had to think carefully, he couldn't agree right away!

Wang Ping'an turned around, came to the battlements, rushed down and shouted: "Jin Sanduo is petitioning the emperor, hoping that the emperor will allow his family's business to display the business flag at the race!"

The common people were silent for a while, then suddenly shouted: "This Jin Sanduo is not authentic, what does it mean to allow his family's business name to display the flag, and us, how can we forget?"

Wang Pingan fulfilled his obligation to pass the microphone, he turned around and said to Jin Sanduo: "You are here on behalf of the merchants, not just for yourself?"

Jin Sanduo nodded quickly, he didn't dare to offend hundreds of merchants below, and would he still want to hang out in the capital in the future!
Wang Pingan immediately shouted at Li Shimin: "Jin Sanduo is recommended by Chang'an merchants, and petitions for merchants!"

Li Shimin nodded again, but still didn't speak.

Wang Ping'an turned around again, and shouted down: "Listen, all merchants, you recommended Jin Sanduo to petition, but what about this, are his words also what you want to say to the emperor?"

The people immediately shouted: "Yes, his words are our words, the same!"

Wang Ping'an lowered his head again and said to Jin Sanduo: "You also know that my family's Yachongtian can be flagged because I took the money. If you want to flag it, you have to spend money!"

Jin Sanduo nodded quickly again, spend whatever you want, as long as you can double your earnings, it doesn't matter how much you spend, the more you spend, the more you earn!
Wang Pingan said: "The flag is made by the imperial court, you can buy it, fifty pennies a flag, how about it?"

Jin Sanduo grinned, "It's expensive enough. If I hit ten faces, wouldn't it cost five hundred guan?" He became ruthless and nodded again!Now he can do nothing but nod his head!
This time, Wang Ping'an turned around directly, and shouted down: "Jin Sanduo means that merchants fly flags, and the flags are made by the imperial court. The small flags are fifty, the middle flags are seventy, and the large flags are one hundred. , Then count the number, how much noodles you buy, how much you spend, what do you mean?"

The merchants below, except for the big merchants, are all small and medium merchants grinning. This is really expensive, and the banner is one hundred times. How many things do you have to sell to earn back!

This is not Wang Pingan's random asking price, but the result of discussing with Li Zhi. The flag cannot be sold too cheaply. If it is too cheap, there are too many companies that can sell the flag, and it is impossible to show the preciousness of the flag. If there is no place, the advertisement is worthless. You can’t just send it out once to make a fortune. You have to send it out every year. This is the long-term solution!
The big businessmen were happy in their hearts, expensive is good, expensive means fewer competitors, the fewer flags, the more conspicuous and the better the effect.

Even though this is the early Tang Dynasty, it does not mean that these great merchants from a thousand or hundreds of years ago had no business acumen. Once Wang Pingan negotiated the price, they immediately understood what was going on!
Wang Pingan understood what the people below were thinking, and without waiting for the small merchants to object, he shouted again: "If it's expensive, you don't have to buy it. The court doesn't force it. Those who are willing to buy it, do you agree with Jin Sanduo's idea?"

The small businessmen were silent, they all thought it was too expensive and wanted to object, but Wang Ping'an got it right, don't buy it if you think it's too expensive, the court doesn't force them to buy it, at most they don't want to raise a flag.For voluntary things, there is no objection or not, so they naturally have nothing to say.

But the big businessman shouted: "I agree, I agree with Jin Sanduo's statement, we are willing to spend money to buy flags!"

After listening for a while, Wang Ping'an didn't hear any objection. Then he turned around and shouted to Li Shimin on the tower. What he said was what he shouted down just now. In fact, Li Shimin had already heard it!
Li Shimin shook his head. He handed over the matter to Li Zhi and Wang Pingan. Although he knew that Wang Pingan should be able to handle it well, he did not expect such a high price.There are too many big businessmen in Chang'an. It can be said that Chang'an is the center of the whole world, and almost half of the richest big businessmen in the world are concentrated here, or have industries here, or have business relationships with people here. Big businessmen have connections.

With so many big businessmen and so many big firms, even if they sell a thousand banners, that would be an income of one hundred thousand. It must be more than that. The ultimate goal of hosting the Olympic Games this time is to have One hundred thousand dollars in income, is it possible that this alone can be achieved?
Li Shimin thought to himself: "If the price of the flag is too high, I'm afraid it won't be sold. Don't just sell a few pieces, it will be too embarrassing for the court!"

Seeing him shaking his head, Wang Ping'an immediately turned around and shouted towards the city wall: "The emperor wants to be a businessman, making a living is difficult, and I don't want the merchants to spend too much..."

The small and medium-sized businessmen thought to themselves: "This is about the same. Is it easy to do business and support the family? The emperor is better!"

But the big businessman reacted faster, thinking: "It's terrible!"

Sure enough, Wang Ping'an shouted: "So the emperor doesn't plan to sell the flag, and no one is allowed to fly the flag during the several-day conference!"

The big businessman quit immediately, don't wait, why don't you let the flag be raised again, such a business opportunity, there is no reason to give up in vain, the emperor's brain... the prince's brain is too stupid!

The big merchants shouted: "Your Majesty, don't be afraid that we grassroots can't afford the money. We really want to buy the flag, so we must."

Some even shouted: "Your Majesty, please do as you please, show mercy, and sell us the flag!"

The big merchants all brought their servants with them, and the servants also shouted, and some even cried, expressing their grievances, why not let them raise the flag!

Jin Sanduo knelt on the ground. Although he was speechless all the time, the surprise in his heart was getting bigger and bigger. He couldn't help but look up at Wang Ping'an. He was not a fool. The merchants under the city wall didn't understand why However, he was on the city wall, so why didn’t he understand it? Could it be that this was arranged in advance, just waiting for us to cry and pay the money?
Turning his eyes away, he saw Shi Zhongchen next to him, and saw this eunuch wearing a third-rank official uniform, looking at him fiercely, the meaning in his eyes was obvious, so what can you do if you understand? Tongue...you won't have a problem with your tongue, but you will have a problem with your head!

Jin Sanduo was so frightened that he trembled, he didn't dare to raise his head anymore, he bowed his body, and knelt even more humbly!

Wang Ping'an turned around and shouted to the tower: "Your Majesty, the merchants are crying and petitioning you, so you should agree, obey the public opinion, the people are the most important, the community is second, and the king is the least..."

He shouted on the city wall, and the people below were all listening. Seeing him reasoning with the emperor, they quickly echoed: "Your Majesty, the people are the most important..."

Jin Sanduo thought to himself: "It is indeed expensive, one hundred pennies and one flag!"

Li Shimin turned his head slightly, Changsun Wuji immediately lowered his head and leaned closer, and said in a low voice: "It seems that there are quite a few people who can be bought. Look, Your Majesty, some people are crying anxiously!"

Li Shimin is very majestic, but he couldn't bear it now, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he finally nodded!

Wang Ping'an immediately turned around, jumped onto the battlements, raised his arms high, and shouted: "The emperor has agreed, long live the emperor!"

The people below didn't care whether they could benefit or not, as soon as they heard that they were going to shout long live, they immediately followed the mountain and shouted long live, and the voice of long live was endless!
Li Shimin didn't turn his head back, and said in a low voice: "With such a person here, it can save me a lot of trouble!"

Li Zhi quickly leaned over and said, "Isn't it? You don't need to talk to the emperor, Wang Ping'an can take care of it!"

Changsun Wuji hummed, nodded, and also lowered his voice and said: "Wang Ping'an is orderly, and he is a capable minister. You can add more burdens to him in the future!"

But Fang Xuanling said: "The emperor didn't say anything, what Wang Pingan said, if something goes wrong in the future, it can be said that Wang Pingan misunderstood the emperor's will, and he can be held accountable!"

He spoke a little louder, and the other ministers heard it, curled their lips together, thinking in their hearts: "Old Fangtou, this is too much!"

But Chu Suiliang lay beside Fang Xuanling's ear, lowered his voice extremely low, and said, "Are you still thinking about your family?"

After the people cheered, Wang Pingan shouted again: "The cost of commercial flags is a bit high, and those with insufficient financial resources cannot enjoy the benefits. Jin Sanduo has a new idea, which is to sell stalls..." He followed the agreement , Shout out the plan.

The big businessmen were happy just now, but now the small and medium businessmen are happy. When doing business, unless you are carrying the burden and walking around the streets, you have to pay this money everywhere. This is a reasonable request, and walking around the streets The peddlers in the alley don’t care, the worst thing is to stay away from the city wall, they are doing small business, as long as they can sell the goods on the same day, it doesn’t matter if there is a stall or not!
In this way, everyone's interests are guaranteed!The common people shouted together: "Jin Sanduo's idea is good, Jin Sanduo is a good guy, we agree with his idea, please be sure to agree, Your Majesty is wise!"

Jin Sanduo grinned and thought: "I didn't say a word, so I'm doing well!" He turned his head to look at Wang Ping'an. The rumors are true, whoever has a relationship with the prince will definitely get benefits , as expected!
