Chapter 357: Compete with Long Aotian on medical skills
Chapter 357: Competing medical skills with Long Aotian
Li Shimin was happy to hear the shouts of the people below. It seemed that this matter was successful. I really didn't expect that it would be so easy to succeed!
I always thought that it was very difficult to get the people to pay some money. Whenever taxes were collected, in some remote places, soldiers had to accompany the tax officials to go to the countryside to collect tax items. No people would ever be happy to pay the money!
But is it strange today? Wang Ping'an ran around the city wall with his shirtless hands. It should be said that he didn't even get half a circle. The people below seemed crazy and had to pay the money. If they didn't pay it, they wouldn't want to, so they had to force them to agree!
It’s so comfortable to receive this amount if you collect money!
Li Shimin still shook his head and still did not agree quickly. Changsun Wuji said behind him: "There is a boy who dispersed wealth in the sky, but he doesn't expect that there is a boy who gathers wealth on the ground. This is Wang Ping'an's ability to make money is extraordinary!"
Fang Xuanling was about to say a few sarcastic words, but turned to look at Chu Suiliang. He changed his words temporarily and said, "If Wang Ping'an is transferred to the Ministry of Revenue, he should be able to show his strengths!"
What he meant was that Wang Ping'an was good at doing things, so it would be better to promote him. He was just a servant in the Secretariat. If he went to the household and asked, he would have to give him a minister, which would be considered an promotion.
But Chu Suiliang lay down in his ear again and said, "It seems that you have forgotten what happened to your family!"
Fang Xuanling's nose was almost irritated. No matter whether I say Wang Ping'an is good or he is bad, you can even get into the little things about my family!
Seeing that Li Shimin was still shook his head, Wang Ping'an quickly turned around and shouted: "Friends, the emperor does not plan to host this Olympics too much. He is afraid that not many people will come to participate and you will lose all your money!"
The people shouted again: "Then let more people come to participate. As long as they can come, let them come! The foreign countries can do it too!"
When the Hu merchants heard this, they were immediately excited. Can we participate? This is a great thing! If there is a good thing, come quickly. It turns out that it is time to meet the situation!
The Hu merchants were originally quite quiet, but they just expressed their mentality of watching the excitement. Seeing the people of the Tang Dynasty screaming, but now the interests are tilted towards them, they can no longer watch the excitement. They also shouted: "Long live the Tiankhan, long live the Tiankhan!"
After shouting below for a long time, the people's throats were smoking. Wang Ping'an turned around from the battlements and acted as a microphone again.
Apart from nodding and shaking his head, Li Shimin didn't say a word about the whole thing, and left it to Wang Ping'an and Li Zhi to do it. Wang Ping'an was responsible for being a coolie, while Li Zhi was responsible for accompanying him. Each had its own division of labor, all for the purpose of doing things better!
This time, Li Shimin still shook his head. Wang Ping'an felt his mouth dry and thought to himself: "It's not that he was trying to make things difficult for me on purpose, my throat was almost hoarse, and you should agree!"
He had no choice but to turn around and shout, "Friends, fellow villagers of the Tang Dynasty, and foreign villagers who admire the Celestial Empire. The voice of your petition is too small!" He shouted with his neck!
When the people below heard it, the voice was still small, so let's make a louder sound!
There were a wave of calls from the crowd. The people originally shouted their own, but after the reminder of the Hu merchants of the Fanbang, they did not shout anything else, and they even shouted together: "Long live the god khan, long live, long live, long live!"
Li Shimin was satisfied. His favorite thing was that others called him Tian Khan. The three words "Tian Khan" represent the common ruler of the world. He is the master of the whole world. Under the sky, only the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is the territory of the Tang Dynasty. He can hear many words and annoy every sentence, but he can only listen to the three words "Tian Khan"!
Finally, the emperor nodded. OK, give you some face, and promise you that you can pay some money to the court. It’s not too difficult for you, right!
Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "My voice is so hoarse. If you don't nod, I might as well jump off the battlement and jump into the moat!"
He turned around, raised his hand high again, and shouted, "Master, agree!"
Boom, the cheers below burst out instantly. Thank you, the emperor, I finally asked us to pay you the money!
All the people on the city and under the city were satisfied, and everyone smiled and praised each other. It seemed that everyone was about to make a fortune!
Li Zhi said: "Father, Wang Ping'an made great contributions this time and added investments to the court. Should he be highly appreciated?"
Li Shimin nodded, but said, "He is still young, and it will not be of great benefit to him when he is promoted too quickly. Please note this time in advance. If he makes a mistake in the future, it can be offset once!"
He was afraid that Wang Ping'an would be promoted too quickly and would not be promoted in the end. If he made great contributions in the future, how should he reward him? The great contributions are beyond the master, and the rewards are unpaid... the consequences are serious!
Li Zhi said, "Wang Ping'an will not make mistakes, he is very cautious." After a pause, he said, "However, I really want to see what his expression looks like after he makes a mistake!"
Li Shimin smiled and said, "Then don't tell him what can be counterproductive. When he makes a mistake, you can scare him. After seeing his expression, it's not too late to tell him!"
Li Zhi was happy and began to fantasize about what his expression would look like after Wang Ping'an made a mistake. He had never seen him lose his composure. He really wanted to take a look!
Wang Ping'an was sweating all over. He ran so far away and was overdrawn at this time. He barely jumped off the battlements and pulled Jin Sanduo to meet the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. He had done the important things, and he would be able to hand over the remaining specific matters to the officials of the Ministry of Revenue. He could not do everything himself!
After finishing all this, it was getting late. The emperor returned to Ganlu Palace. Wang Ping'an accompanied Li Zhi to the East Palace. After discussing what happened today for a while, he then left and returned to Inspiration Temple.
After returning to the temple, he never entered the palace for two consecutive days. The fatigue after the long-distance running showed up, so he had to rest in the temple and could not run around.
In the following days, the Ministry of Revenue was busy, and officials stayed up all night to handle the conference. After receiving the news, the people from all over the capital came to Chang'an one after another. The imperial court held a sect and won the scholars, which was a grand event for the scholars, and this Olympic Games was equivalent to a grand event for the people, especially the merchants, for them, a grand event full of business opportunities!
Let’s talk about Jin Sanduo, who had a neutral reputation in this grand ceremony, was "recommended" by merchants because he personally participated in the race with his shirtlessness and was "recommended" by merchants and "negotiated" with the emperor. Although he did not say a word, the results of the negotiation were successful. His contribution was huge, and the merchants thanked him very much. Among the merchants in Chang'an, Jin Sanduo has the highest status. Although his financial resources are average, his fame is extraordinary. He has surpassed a wealthy man like Hamiti. He has a faint attitude of the number one merchant in Chang'an. Even his business is booming, making money every day!
Jin Sanduo thanked Wang Ping'an, thank you sincerely. The reason why he was able to win both fame and fortune was because he cursed the favor of the prince. Wang Ping'an was his lucky star and his great benefactor! He came to Inspiration Temple several times and wanted to express his feelings, but he was blocked by Ouyang Li and others, saying that the prince was not in good health and was not in a foreign visit. Jin Sanduo had to give up, but he was always thinking about how to thank Wang and Hou!
The Jin family's mansion is full of businessmen who come and make friends with Jin Sanduo. Jin Sanduo had just finished a group of social events and was about to go back to the back house to take a break, so he asked a little girl to beat his legs and press his waist. Suddenly, a servant came to report that the master was coming. Jin Sanduo was very happy and quickly greeted him.
Jin Sanduo was not a native of Chang'an, but later moved. He was originally from Qingzhou. Qingzhou was in the north of Chang'an. For example, in modern times, it was roughly located in Gansu and Ningxia. It was considered a big state in the early Tang Dynasty. The Jin family was very powerful in Qingzhou. The Jin family has been in business for generations and was rich in the country. In the generation of Jin Sanduo, there were two brothers, the eldest brother Jin Sanquan and the younger brother Jin Sanduo.
Jin Sanquan is about 20 years older than Jin Sanduo, and is over 60 years old this year. After his parents passed away, he brought Jin Sanduo with him, and his elder brother was like his father. Jin Sanduo has always respected his elder brother very much. After Jin Sanduo became an adult, Jin Sanquan gave him a sum of money, let him set up his own business, and sent him to Chang'an to develop. Jin Sanduo then settled in the capital.
Therefore, it is wrong for Chang'an merchants to call Jin Sanduo Jin San Master. They are called by their name. In fact, he should be Jin Er Master. Jin Sanquan is Mr. Jin!
Jin Sanduo came out of the house and saw two carriages parked at the door. The latter was about to get off the car, while the front was closed with the door. The elder brother must be inside.
He quickly stepped forward and shouted, "Brother, I miss you so much. Why did you suddenly come to the capital? You didn't send someone to deliver the letter in advance. I can go out of the city to pick you up!"
While talking, he opened the car door and saw that the eldest brother Jin San was covered in white hair, lying in the car with a flushed face, as if he was sick!
When Jin Sanquan heard his brother's words, he turned his head and said, "It's not all the same, what else do you need to take?" He sat up slowly and said, "Come on, let me see. OK, you look good, but you have a happy event at home?"
Jin Sanduo did not answer the elder brother's words, and his face disappeared, saying, "Brother, what's wrong with you? Look at your appearance, you're sick, why are all your hair white?" He stretched out his hand and helped the elder brother get out of the car.
Jin Sanquan sighed and said, "The road was bumpy, and I was not happy with food. I was suffering from wind evil again."
Jin Sanduo hurriedly said: "Have you ever invited a doctor to see a doctor?"
"I'm in a hurry to go, there's no time. Forget it, it's not a serious illness, I'll get better after two days of rest!" Jin Sanquan said and got off the carriage.
Jin Sanduo helped his elder brother into his mansion.
It took several days before Wang Ping'an's body recovered and his whole body no longer felt sore!
Early this morning, Ouyang Li came to report that Long Aotian was here and today was the day for them to compete for medical skills. It was originally agreed to three days later, but the emperor issued a special order to inform Long Aotian that he would postpone the competition until ten days later. Long Aotian dared not violate the imperial edict. In addition, something big happened at his family, he was not in the mood to compete immediately, so he waited obediently until today. Early in the morning, he came to challenge Wang Ping'an!
