Horse-drawn carriages travel along the main road.
Zhao Gao left with some of his men. He had to go back quickly to inform Wang Ben and others, telling them the good news that the emperor had been found.
Cao Xiu sat in the carriage, looking left and right.
It can only be said that Li Hei is worthy of being Prime Minister Zuo's steward. Look at the treatment and even ride in a carriage. Now he, from noble to official, has to spend his own money to buy horses. If you include the carriage, it will definitely cost you tens of thousands of dollars.
This carriage also has a lot of black technology. Not only does it have a V-rabbit for shock absorption, but the windows are also two-layered. You can adjust the amount of air blown in independently, and the cost will not be cheap.
After hearing what he said, Cao Xiu suddenly realized.
"So, the steward came to Pei County from Dongwu County? Because Sishui County is short of food, he came here to sell rice."
"Exactly."
Li Si said and also took out the transmission test.
Cao Xiu didn't answer, just glanced at him.
I'm afraid this test is more real than the real thing!
He said that it is not easy to get in and out of Surabaya County in Dasuo now. Everything can be explained after listening to what Li Hei said. It was obvious that Li Si was trying to make some money. The purchase price is about 20 yuan per stone, and the sales can reach hundreds of yuan, which is equivalent to four or five times the profit. Even if you sell it for less, if you sell it for 10,000 shi, it will be a profit of nearly one million yuan!
If Li Si is more evil-hearted, he can continue to blockade Surabaya County. In the future, food prices will be even more terrifying, and they may even rise to a meter or a thousand dollars. It’s no wonder that this old Yinbi didn’t agree with the average loss, and even said that we should discuss it slowly. Maybe he actually wanted to make a fortune out of this!
He worked hard from dawn to dusk, risked confiscation of his family and exterminated his family to make salt and wine, and he only made millions of money throughout the year. Look, Li Si can easily make millions by just opening his mouth and sealing off the city, and then sending people to sell rice after the price of food rises.
No wonder people say that with power comes money. Future generations will not deceive me!
When it comes to making money, you have to look at them...
"Before I came to Peixian County, I heard the Prime Minister mention Mr. Cao. He also said that Mr. Cao was very capable. The introduction of the restricted purchasing policy greatly eased the pressure on Sishui County."
"Hehe...hehe..."
Cao Xiu smiled but said nothing.
After touching my nose, I probably understood something. No wonder Li Hei had such a good attitude just now. He thought he got the wrong script and worked on it for a long time because of his master's wishes. In this case, it would be a good thing for him. If he could hug Li Si's lap, the rest would be much smoother.
Qin Shihuang sat next to him with an indifferent expression. Seeing Li Si come to Pei County in person, he probably already knew. Cao Xiu's rewards a few days ago were all approved by Li Si himself, and he obviously also had a love for talents. Just take advantage of the opportunity to find someone and contact Cao Xiu.
Li Si glanced at the emperor cautiously.
Seeing that he didn't pay attention, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"The Prime Minister recognizes you very much and often praises you. I went to Pei County to sell rice this time, and he specially asked me to come to you for advice."
"you flatter me."
Cao Xiu raised his hand slightly guilty.
Good guy, this is a compliment to him!
"I was walking along the road, and I had some insights." Li Si said with a smile: "Cao Jun is indeed capable of governing the country. After he became a miser in the countryside, he overhauled the latrines, and then used the manure to fertilize the fields to increase output. It is really It’s a good method.”
Regardless of Cao Xiu's identity, Li Si really admired him. He is very capable at a young age and will be able to make a career in less than three years. It's no wonder that the emperor would show mercy to him and thought of instigating him to rebel first.
Only the First Emperor could do this kind of thing.
What he did was something even the Prime Minister couldn't imagine. Even if the rebels knew about it, they wouldn't be able to believe that the tyrant they hated so much had actually sneaked into their ranks!
After a while, the carriage stopped.
"Mr. Li, we're here."
"This mansion is really luxurious."
Li Si looked up and couldn't help but speak.
This is not praise, but hatred!
According to Qin laws, Cao Xiu was not qualified to enjoy this mansion at all. It was obvious that he was violating the rules and regulations, but because he was far away from internal history in Pei County, no one held him accountable. The magistrate of Peixian County seems to have received a lot of benefits. It is really a shame for Qin officials!
"It's just so-so."
"Azheng, why don't you wait for someone? How do I teach you on weekdays? You have no etiquette at all. You will suffer a loss when you go out to hang out in the future!"
"..."
"..."
Li Si waved his hands repeatedly, indicating that it was okay.
What could he say?
He...he is just a child!
Cao Xiu also sighed and helplessly walked ahead to introduce. Ah Zheng has a deputy aristocratic style. He doesn't understand the twists and turns at all, or he doesn't bother to do it. After learning Li Hei's identity, Azheng put on a bad face, as if he was owed tens of thousands of dollars.
After all, it was related to Li Si, and he could be considered half of Azheng's father-killing enemy. Cao Xiu could understand Ah Zheng's attitude, but he couldn't support it. They have to endure this situation now. No matter how angry or unhappy they are, they can't show it on their faces. If someone notices something, wouldn't it be a failure?
…
Hu Hai followed, looking left and right.
He actually found this place very interesting.
There are many utensils placed in the house and there are several small dogs. You can tell at a glance that it is a wealthy family. At the same time, several peach trees were planted, which were already full of fruits. A fish pond was also dug, soaked with kudzu and bamboo, and snakeheads could be seen swimming freely.
"Cao'er, a distinguished guest is here today. Go and tell the chef to prepare more food, and then ask the minister to bring the three-year-old wine that I have treasured."
"only!"
Cao Xiu came to the hall.
After they were seated, they asked: "Mr. Li just said that he was going to Pei County to sell rice. I wonder how much corn Li Gong has prepared?"
"Thirty thousand stones."
Li spoke calmly.
In fact, he had no intention of making money from it. He really looked down on this small amount of money. He was previously focused on getting the emperor back and didn't care about it at all.
"hiss……"
Cao Xiu took a breath.
What a beast!
The shot is thirty thousand stones!
Earn one hundred yuan per stone, that’s three million!
"The corn will be arranged by Mr. Cao."
"Understood, I understand all the rules." Cao Xiu suddenly realized that he had obviously become a cover, "After making money, we will divide it into 30% and 70%, and the prime minister... No, it is Mr. Li who only gets 70%. If something happens because of this, then It’s all Xiu’s responsibility and has nothing to do with the Prime Minister.”
"???"
"..."
Li Si stared and stood up in horror.
Damn it!
The emperor is right in front of you, please don't harm me!
"you you……"
Cao Xiu thought that the other party was a lion, and said bitterly: "How about 28 points? If it doesn't work, 91 points will be fine. I don't expect to make money if I can serve the Prime Minister."
"presumptuous!"
Li Si stared anxiously and said, if the emperor hadn't been here, he would have gone up and slapped Cao Xiu twice. How can someone be innocent out of thin air?
"I understand, it all belongs to the Prime Minister!"
"You know nothing!"
Li Si cursed angrily, not caring about his image.
What is this kid thinking about? !
