When they left the shoe city.
Li Shimin said with emotion: "I didn't expect that Li Min really worked hard on this thing under his feet. Why didn't he get it out earlier?"
"Your Majesty, these shoes should have been in production before and finally put on the market. I guess Shengtang Group couldn't imagine that they would sell so well, right?"
Cheng Yaojin guessed so.
"No matter what, we bought a lot of good things this time, so it's okay."
"Your Majesty, have you ever thought about cooperating with the Sixth Prince to make some shoes for soldiers in the army? The quality of their shoes is so good. If they are equipped to soldiers, they will definitely increase the combat power of our army."
Cheng Yaojin said this, and Li Shimin thought it made sense.
"You said this very well. I will ask Dai Zhou to go to Li Min to prepare it. Also, you and Yuchi Jingde will sort out some requirements for army shoes, and then I will ask Dai Zhou to go to Li Min to produce them. "
Li Shimin said so.
Cheng Yaojin immediately said: "Yes, Your Majesty, I will go to Yuchi Jingde to prepare these things."
"Okay, go ahead!"
Cheng Yaojin separated from Li Shimin.
In fact, he went back directly to wait for the arrival of his shoes.
Six hundred pairs of shoes, ten wives and concubines, sixty pairs each,
This amount is a bit large, but the question is whether his wives and concubines will like what he buys. What if they don't like to fight?
Li Shimin is doing better.
He has three palaces and six courtyards, and more queens and concubines. If you don't like it, some people will naturally like it.
And do you dare to refuse the things that the emperor has rewarded?
You don't even have the chance to not want it.
If you don’t want it, of course many people will.
Li Shimin also returned to Tai Chi Palace.
As soon as he arrived at the palace, he called all the concubines.
The concubines, Empress Changsun and others did not understand what he meant.
Li Shimin waited until everyone arrived before saying, "I want to give you some gifts today!"
In this way, everyone is very happy.
Li Shimin hasn't given them gifts for a long time.
However, Li Shimin added: "But the foot must be suitable. I have a piece of paper here. You can step on it one by one. If it exceeds or is smaller than the outline on the paper, you will not be able to have my gift."
"ah!?"
The concubines were puzzled. Why do this?
"Your Majesty, what is this?"
Queen Changsun asked.
"Because my gift is related to feet. It doesn't matter if the feet are big or small."
Concubine Yang asked: "Are those boots?"
"No, no, no, it's shoes!"
ah?
Everyone was even more puzzled.
"Come on, come on, everyone, stand up and take a look. If it suits you, stand on the left. If it doesn't, just step aside."
Li Shimin said so.
So, the concubines stood up one by one.
Some of them are happy and some are worried.
There are only a hundred concubines whose feet are size 36.
The other concubines are either too big or too small.
This made her very upset.
But there is nothing to do.
I can only watch helplessly as everyone has the gifts given by Li Shimin.
As for those who stayed, Li Shimin asked them to wait patiently.
Waiting until the afternoon, Dai Zhou hurriedly walked in from outside.
And let dozens of people carry burdens to the palace.
On these burdens, there are all shoe boxes.
After many concubines saw it, they wanted to go up and see what it was, but they didn't dare.
Li Shimin ordered: "Come here, put the shoes on the shoe box. Put them in pairs!"
"yes!"
So the eunuchs put all the shoes on the box.
Because there are too many.
There are probably more than 900 pairs of women's shoes, so it took them a long time to complete them.
At this time, Li Shimin said to everyone: "These are gifts for you. But the queen must choose first. The ones she likes will be kept, and then Concubine Yang, and they will come one by one!"
Li Shimin thought of this way.
Let everyone be surprised.
It turns out there is still such an operation.
In other words, if Queen Changsun wants it, then everyone has it.
That is to say, whatever remains from Queen Changsun and Concubine Yang's choice will be divided equally between them.
This is Li Shimin's intention.
And he also valued Empress Changsun and Concubine Yang very much.
When Queen Changsun saw these shoes, she liked them very much.
Heart of beauty in everyone.
If you love shoes, beauties will love them even more.
So, she went straight to the shoes.
"Put this pair, this pair and this pair in the shoe box. And then put them all aside!"
"yes!"
A eunuch followed her and took the shoeboxes to one side and piled them up.
She walked around and spotted about eighty pairs.
The shoes were piled up.
Pretty high.
She can be considered a conscientious person. If it were anyone else, she might want them all.
"Okay, that's all." Queen Changsun said.
At this time, many concubines breathed a sigh of relief, because there were still about 800 pairs.
One person still has a chance of eight pairs.
"Concubine Yang, come too." Li Shimin said.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
In the second round, Concubine Yang chose.
She walked to the shoes and began to choose.
I walked around and chose about sixty pairs like this.
As a result, there are only more than 700 pairs left.
Li Shimin looked at the shoes.
Then he said: "There are still more than 700 pairs. There are more than 100 of you. Each of you has six pairs. I will randomly click on them. The one who clicks will choose six pairs from left to right to go!"
Li Shimin said.
"yes"
Everyone thinks it's fair.
So Li Shimin began to point at the many concubines.
They choose one by one. If the first ones are not selected, the next ones basically have no chance.
Therefore, they are also very cautious.
The selection is also very slow.
As a result, more than 700 pairs of shoes were quickly selected until only a few dozen pairs were left.
These are all left over from being chosen, and that proves to be unsightly.
What no one wants.
Li Shimin didn't let these shoes gather dust either.
He said: "There are still seventy pairs here, so let's give these seventy pairs to the maids!"
He's pretty good at being a human being.
Give it directly to the palace maids. These are the remaining ones chosen by the concubines because they have high vision, but the palace ladies are different. Their pursuit is different, as long as they are beautiful.
"Your Majesty is wise!" Queen Changsun took the lead and said.
So, the concubines followed and said: "Your Majesty is wise!"
"Okay, okay!" Li Shimin was in high spirits.
"Do you like these shoes?" Li Shimin asked again.
"love it."
But no one dares to say they don’t like it.
After all, it was their choice.
If you don’t like it, what do you choose to do?
It was also because of Li Shimin's reward that they didn't dare to say they didn't like it.
"Then take all your shoes back!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" So, these concubines took away all the shoes, and the remaining ones belonged to Empress Changsun and Concubine Yang.
They also want to be taken away, but not now.
Li Shimin will help them when the time comes.
"Dai Zhou, come with me!" Li Shimin said to Dai Zhou again.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Dai Zhou read from beginning to end. At this time, he also wanted to go to the shoe store to buy some shoes and go back.
