It’s not that the veteran doesn’t care about politics, but that he can’t care too much about politics.

If these generals with great reputation in the army were too enthusiastic about the state affairs of the court, Li Shimin should be worried. No matter how broad the king is, he will be suspicious. So Cheng Yaojin and Li Ji and a group of veteran generals learned not to point fingers at state affairs, and stood in the golden hall of the court every day and became a group of quiet old men.

From ancient times to the present, politics has always been something that civil servants play, and only they are the most skilled. For example, if Li Shimin rebuilt the Daming Palace, Wei Zheng could make up his mind to knock his forehead in front of the monarch and ministers, and use a lifeless tragic situation to arouse the emotions of civil and military officials to resist the foolish monarch. If Cheng Yaojin had gone out to advise, with the temper of an old hooligan, he would probably have to swear, and by the way, he had a super-generation relationship with Li Shimin's 18th generation of female ancestors and elders, and he would mess around and turn a matter that was clearly reasonable into unreasonable trouble.

Therefore, it is right for military generals not to get involved in politics. In addition to fighting, civil officials will sacrifice their lives and shed their blood.

Li Su and Cheng Yaojin also had the same idea. The difference is that Li Su is not qualified to get involved. In the small county, he has just become an adult. Who in the court takes his words seriously?

Everyone is honest man who is not involved in politics. Just sit together and drink and have fun.

In the front hall of the Cheng family, Li Su rarely took the initiative to pick up the lacquered ear cup and gaze at Cheng Yaojin Yao: "Uncle Cheng, don't talk about state affairs, just about the romantic affairs, boy drinks a lot, you... don't do it casually, you have done it."

After drinking a glass of wine, Li Su's eyebrows, eyes and nose were all frowned, and she felt like her stomach was on fire, which was spicy and painful.

The Cheng family is not particular. Since the invention of the five-step pour, I have never seen any other wine in the Cheng family. Will you die if you make a few pots of three-slip pulp?

Cheers to Li Su. Cheng Yaojin was too lazy to be casual, and he sneered contemptuously with his eyes squinted: "Sweet! Don't talk about state affairs. The country was fought by His Majesty and my husband and his group of martial artists. Why can't we talk about it? He is still 'Fengyue'. He has been married for three or four days and hasn't had sex with his wife. What's the best thing to say to you?"

"Ah?" Li Su's face was filled with blood and she was full of grief and anger.

I can't live anymore, I have a secret spy from Cheng's family? How did he know such a secret thing?

"How did Uncle Cheng know?"

Cheng Yaojin glanced at him again: "How do I know? Uncle Niu and Uncle Li all know that my wife asked me to let you sleep? What is the saying that she is a different room? She doesn't need to keep her delicate wife, and she doesn't even dare to go back home. She sleeps alone in the firearm bureau every day, and she has the face to talk about her love and miss with me..."

Li Su blinked her eyes and understood instantly.

Xu Jingzong! This old bastard! Go to the Firearm Bureau tomorrow and hang him on a tree to suck him!

Li Su straightened his back and said seriously: "Uncle Cheng, you and the kid are both important officials in the court. Let's talk about state affairs..."

Cheng Yaojin's expression became even more contemptuous: "Bah! A boy who is still a 'immature official'. I have nothing to do with you about state affairs. If you can't drink, get out quickly. In the future, I will give me more green vegetables. In addition, I will make some real things. Is there no cow in your farm that occasionally breaks his legs? I will break one for the Ming Dynasty. I don't want much. It's enough to divide half of the meat. Get out quickly."

"Yes, the boy took his leave...but there was no cow with broken legs."

Cheng Yaojin smiled angrily: "Get out of the way to protect the calf, remember that rebuilding the Daming Palace is something to be discussed in the court. Don't participate, you little kid, otherwise it will cause trouble."

"Uncle Cheng, don't worry, kid is not stupid..."

******************************************************************

Spring is coming soon, the weather is still very cold, and I can't feel any spring atmosphere. The spring of the twelve years of Zhenguan is coming late.

In this cold weather, the Li family ushered in a bumper harvest.

In the fifty acres of greenhouse, the white thin white cloth as thin as cicada wings was pulled apart, and the fields were filled with various green vegetables, piled up on the ground like a mountain, attracting countless villagers to watch and envy and hate.

In this era when even the emperor could only eat two bites of wilted lotus vegetables in winter, the Li family's harvest is really worthy of jealousy.

Mr. Xue shouted that after the hired farmhouse households harvested, they moved all the green vegetables to the large yard outside the front door of the Li family. After weighing them, they were weighed and weighed them, which was more than 20,000 kilograms.

Li Daozheng and Xue Butler were in full bloom, but Li Su was a little dissatisfied.

There are more than 20,000 kilograms of 50 mu, with an average of 400 kilograms per mu. In fact, the yield is relatively low. For farming, Li Su only swayed half a bucket of water, barely remembering a few details of greenhouse vegetables in his previous life, and he knew nothing about the specific farming and maintenance, and so on. He relied on exploration and stumbled over. He only got this yield when harvesting.

More than 20,000 kilograms are not a small amount. At least the Li family will definitely not finish it. In addition, it can’t deliver much to the uncles and uncles of Chang'an City. How to solve these green vegetables has become a major task that Li Su needs to do.

The yard outside the Li family's gate has never been so messy. Cracks of cucumbers and eggplants (Kunlun purple cucumbers) mustard greens are piled high in the yard. The yard, which is usually clean and tidy, looks like a canteen warehouse in a refugee camp today. It is dirty and messy. Li Su, who loves to be clean, feels so uncomfortable that her face is twisted into a ball.

They must be solved quickly!

…………

Wang Zhi has the most contacts. He has been together in Dongshi these days and has known the most businessmen. Song Gongyang is not good enough. At present, Song Gongyang cannot know the existence of Li Su. There is another person who has met one person. Sun Pinggui, a businessman from Haozhou who sold greenhouse Su cloth to him.

"Hiss green vegetable!"

Sun Pinggui was invited to come and saw the green vegetables in the yard, and his eyes were filled with green light.

"What did it do? Green vegetables! There are actually green vegetables in the cold weather..." Sun Pinggui was very surprised.

"Is it good-looking?" Li Su raised his eyebrows at him.

"It looks good, it's better than my wife..." Sun Pinggui said as he stepped forward and pulled a handful of mustard leaves. He stuffed it into his mouth without washing it, which made Li Su frown.

Sun Pinggui seemed a little embarrassed by his ugly eating habits, and said proudly: "I only eat meat all winter, and I have been constipated for many days. I wish I could forgive me..."

"I bought all those bad cloth heads last time. How are you doing recently? Have you not done any loss-making business again?"

Sun Pinggui became more and more embarrassed. He first bowed to Li Su, thanked Li Su for his kindness, and then smiled and said, "I'm asking for the blessing of the noble man. Later, the villain went to Haozhou to get two thousand pieces of silk cloth, which he had stockpiled for less than a month. He was bought by a Hu merchant and made a small profit."

"So, you only sell cloths, not anything else?"

Sun Pinggui smiled: "Look at what the nobles said, businessmen have no intention of selling only one thing, and they can make money. If the people of Chang'an are short of feces forks, the villain immediately threw away the cloth warehouse and sold feces forks..."

Li Su understands. In the eyes of merchants, goods are not eternal, but money is eternal. As long as you can make money, you can sell anything.

Very good, Li Su was very comforted.

Pointing at the green vegetables piled up in the yard, Li Su asked, "Can you sell these things?"

Sun Pinggui was as if he was attacked and received aphrodisiac. His face was flushed with excitement, and his breathing became rapid. He said in a trembling voice: "Would you like the noble man to help sell green vegetables?"

"This is so strange. Why don't I want to call you to the village for? I can say good things, can I sell it? I can't sell it and I'll find someone else..."

"Can sell!" Sun Pinggui shouted loudly, then realized that he was a little disrespectful. He bowed to Li Su and said in a normal tone: "... Can I sell, how many green vegetables can be sold as much as the villain can, and the villain guarantees integrity. If you give a noble person one or two shorts, use the villain's head to count!"

Li Su nodded. People in this era are still very honest. Even the most cunning businessmen dare not joke about their integrity. He said they will not be shorter. Then they will definitely not be shorter. Sometimes the promises of businessmen are even heavier than ordinary people.

"Okay. Thank you for your hard work, and I won't lose money. Let's open the money you get from 73, and I'll open the seventh one and you 3..."

Before Li Su finished speaking, a very abrupt female voice suddenly came from behind him.

"On the first day of the nine, the Li family will get nine."

The two turned around in surprise and found Xu Mingzhu standing behind her pretty. Today, Xu Mingzhu finally changed out of her dress, wearing a plain high-waisted skirt, her hair tied into a high cloud bun, and a golden hairpin on her bun swayed with her steps.

Xu Mingzhu's face was not very good-looking, Li Su was a little puzzled, I don't know who made her angry. When the two looked at her, Xu Mingzhu walked up to her, bowed to Li Su first, and said softly: "I should apologize to my husband first. I shouldn't have misunderstood the rules and interjected randomly. I'm guilty. Let my husband scold me after I go back to the house..."

Li Su scratched his head: "Ah... it's okay, it doesn't matter if you interrupt. You are my wife, and you should have informed you about the family matters, I forgot it just now."

Xu Mingzhu gently pulled the corner of her mouth, and she had laughed. Then she had a pretty face tightened. She stood up and looked at Sun Pinggui, saying, "This should be a businessman who is engaged in business in Chang'an City. In terms of business, my family is also a businessman. I know the rules here better than my husband. Businessmen are just seeking profits. Today's transaction is different. The so-called "business" is all from my Li family. You only handled one hand in the middle, and there is neither investment nor risk. If you get three of them, I am afraid you don't think it's appropriate, right?"

Li Su opened her eyes wide and looked at her in shock. Sun Pinggui's old face turned red with shame and hurriedly explained: "Madam Gui is too careful. It was what Guiren said just now. The villain hadn't agreed yet. Mrs. Gui was right. The villain was just a hand in the middle and shouted a few times. It was really not worth 30%..."

Xu Mingzhu smiled and said, "Since that's the case, I dared to make the decision for my husband. I sold all the 20,000 kilograms of green vegetables. My Li family will get 90,000 yuan of the money I earned, and you will get 10% of the money. There are also carriages, coachmen, laborers, shops, men, staff, etc. that should be shipped. The Li family will not ask about it, and only send two accountants to you to facilitate the supervision of the accounts of this transaction. What do you think?"

Cold sweat oozed from Sun Pinggui's forehead. It was obvious that Xu Mingzhu put a lot of pressure on him in this negotiation.

"Also, 20,000 kilograms of green vegetables are not a decimal. You can sell them in Chang'an City but don't make much money. You might as well take two thousand kilograms first and sell them at a low price. The people of Chang'an City will inevitably be moved by the news. Then raise the price to the highest, and then divide the green vegetables into three grades according to the quality. The prices of the three types of quality are naturally different, and the sellers are also different. The top-quality products are sold to the powerful families of Chang'an, medium-quality products are sold to merchants and officials, and low-quality products. This will not only make the powerful and nobles feel at ease, but the people are willing to buy them after comparing the prices. What do you think?"

Sun Pinggui's eyes widened and he was dumbfounded for a while without saying anything.

Li Su looked ashamed and had the urge to hit the wall and wipe her neck.

Time travelers, hunger marketing and high-quality routes. Maximize profits... What you should know is not as good as a little girl in her teens. This big and good head should be chopped... Used as a chamber pot for her?

On the business trip, Xu Mingzhu showed her sharpness today, and her strength made Li Su a little unfamiliar.

The momentum is as strong as Mount Tai. What else can Sun Pinggui say besides nodding?

So Sun Pinggui returned to the city to find a carriage, but Xu Mingzhu still had a pretty face tense, and two green onion-white and slender hands held the corner of Li Su's sleeve, pulled him into the backyard room, closed the door, and bowed to him Yingying.

"Forgive me, husband, I have lost my etiquette today. I shouldn't have given you any face in front of outsiders. I would like to ask you to punish me."

Li Su was stunned for a moment and said, "Ah, don't be polite, don't be polite. I said that you should be the one who decides the matter at home. Today I was negligent."

"Husband Xie understands me. I have been standing behind you for a long time, and I have been holding back and not making any noise. Later... I really can't watch our Li family suffer losses, so I stand up out in a state of rude way."

He bowed and apologized again. Li Suzhen couldn't tell where this girl had lost her politeness. She was just too much politeness.

Li Su was also polite: "Today, thanks to his wife, I saved the losses for the Li family. I could only get 70% of them, but I got 90%. I really made a big profit. I should thank my wife for standing up."

Xu Mingzhu's face turned red and she lowered her head and said, "Don't say anything, husband, I will feel ashamed..."

The matter was revealed, Li Su laughed twice. He got up and opened the door to leave, but Xu Mingzhu called him again.

"Husband. I have something I want to tell you."

Li Su paused for a moment, turned around and said with a smile: "Just say it."

Xu Mingzhu's face turned redder. Her expression didn't seem to be too shy, but she was more angry. She looked a little timid. Finally, she took a deep breath, as if she was plucking up her courage, and then said softly: "...I apologize to my husband first, but my words may be a bit unpleasant. I would like to ask you to punish me after listening."

Li Su became more and more surprised and smiled, "There are no ones who punish them at all times? I'm not so unreasonable. Let's talk about it, what's going on?"

Xu Mingzhu gritted her teeth and said, "My husband is the county granted by His Majesty. Before I got married, I heard about my husband's reputation. My mother's family is in Jingyang County. My husband is named Jingyang County. For me and the Xu family, he is already a person who has become a heaven. I heard that the title of the county is because my husband had made military achievements in the city of Songzhou. The Tang Dynasty fought fiercely in Tubo. He asked his husband to turn the world and change the situation. He not only recovered Songzhou City, but also advanced thousands of miles into Tubo. He met the city to defeat the city, killed the enemy, and greatly increased the prestige of our Tang Dynasty..."

Li Su smiled and said, "This is too praising. Although it is a fact, don't be so naked. I'm embarrassed..."

Xu Mingzhu pulled the corner of her mouth and then said, "... Before I got married, the Hu Sihu from the county came to my house as a matchmaker. When talking about my husband's character, official title, and all the contributions he made, my parents were so happy that they nodded without thinking at all. After I knew about it, I was also happy in my heart. Although I had never seen my husband, I knew that my husband was a hero who stood up to the sky and could marry him. It must be because I had cultivated ten generations of merits and was favored by God..."

Xu Mingzhu said, and suddenly changed his tone: "... In my eyes, my husband should be the pillar of the court who devoted himself to the country and was a great figure who was on horseback and was a leader of the government and was a leader of the people. His exchanges were memorials and official documents, and his words were all about military and national security. His husband was a county enthroned by His Majesty, a decent and noble official family, and the pillar of our Li family. But... how can a husband do things that merchants and peddlers must be comparative of low-key things?"
