Li Shimin and his ministers were shocked. They looked at the people who were kneeling devoutly and their trembling eyes. They were speechless and frowned for a moment.
The light of respect in everyone's eyes was so blazing, and the excitement around them was so strong——
Tang Sufan quickly pulled up Old Man Xia in front of him.
"Old man, get up quickly! Get up quickly!"
Fortunately, Tang Sufan had strong arms and quickly dragged Old Man Xia up.
Then he turned his head and looked at the bustling crowd of people kneeling on the ground, frowning like a knot.
Is it really worth such a courtesy?
Tang Sufan suppressed his thoughts and spoke loudly under the gazes of Li Shimin and others.
"Everyone, although I have done something to give you a bite to eat! But I am also a normal employee. You are using your own efforts to make money. It is really not worth bowing down like this!"
As soon as Tang Sufan finished speaking, there was a flurry of responses from around him.
The man who was kneeling nearest and with a dry face said excitedly.
"No, boss, you saved our lives! In this year of cold and snow disaster, people froze to death one after another along the way, but our boss took us in, gave us food, and gave us shelter. This is the place where my mother and I were able to survive!”
"Don't dare to accept the kindness of your boss!"
"My boss is from Lingzhou, a small town, from..."
"The little Xuzhou man has been on the run for more than half a year..."
"Little Fu Dabao..."
"Boss! You are..."
There were so many voices of agreement around that even Li Shimin and others at the back couldn't hear clearly what they were saying.
But all of them are grateful to Tang Sufan for his great kindness in founding this coal workshop and using refugees as workers!
The shouts of gratitude became louder and louder, and even many people in the workshop were attracted to come out!
When Tang Sufan saw that if he didn't stop it, it might become a large-scale worship site, he glanced at it.
I saw a stone at the entrance of the workshop, so I ran over and stepped on it.
The man has a handsome face and an air of magnanimity.
He said with an upright voice: "Everyone! I, Tang Sufan, am not worthy of this kindness. Everything is nothing more than the kindness of the current court and His Majesty's will!"
As soon as Tang Sufan spoke, Li Shimin and others looked at each other, this kid...
Tang Sufan continued to wave his hands and said: "Everyone, I am just a young man from the village. I have no official title and only a few spare cash. This coal workshop is a work-for-relief plan set by the Holy One! "
"This place was also awarded by the Holy Spirit, and for my efforts and help from the Confucius Mansion, I was ordered to build this workshop and try my best to bring back the refugees, so I shouldn't take credit!"
"So, I can't bear your kindness. If I want to thank you, it's because the Holy One cares about the refugees. I'm just doing what I can!"
One of Tang Sufan's lines was said to be eloquent and righteous.
Many people knelt on the ground and the noise of the refugees before they were taken into the workshop became smaller.
I don’t know who said this from someone’s mouth: “Thank you, Your Majesty!”
"I didn't expect that the emperor would still miss us——"
"Your Majesty is blessed!"
"I didn't expect that the imperial court... still cares about the lives of us untouchables..."
"The emperor is a wise king!"
Waves of fierce noises started to sound again, and Li Shimin, who was standing in the center, felt his face getting slightly hot.
I didn’t expect that this guy would give me this reputation.
Looking at Tang Sufan persuading everyone, his lips twitched slightly, I don't know if it was a smile or something...
Tang Sufan quickly stepped down from the stage and helped everyone get up.
"Everyone, let's go - as long as you work hard, I boldly promise in the name of the emperor that you will never be hungry in the future!"
At the end, Tang Sufan 'coincidentally' borrowed an emperor's name and patted his chest to make a promise for everyone.
Amidst a burst of grateful voices, the surrounding workers slowly dispersed.
"My boss, the old man will go find Mrs. Kong for you right now. Please wait!"
Old Man Xia nodded and hunched over and hurriedly ran into the workshop.
Tang Sufan's eyebrows jumped at the sight. This old man was not afraid of falling...
This tossing lasted for a quarter of an hour, and Tang Sufan breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't expect that such a thing would happen for the first time here.
Seeing Tang Sufan let out a sigh of relief, Li Shimin took two steps forward, straightened his back and his waist, and asked deliberately as if he wanted to.
"Su Fan, these people treat you like this, why do you reject it? This is a good name -"
Tang Sufan's mouth twitched. If he hadn't seen Rou'er and his sister here, he would have wanted to slap Old Li on the head.
"Old Li, you know nothing -"
Li Shimin's face turned black +_+.
This guy is not a dog--
Don't I want to ask you what you are thinking?
Then Tang Sufan patted Li Shimin on the shoulder and said sincerely.
"Old Li, I don't dare ask for this name. To put it mildly, the refugees are grateful to me. But to say it more seriously, this is the heart of the people!"
"Which emperor wouldn't care about this -"
"You are already going to enter the officialdom. You need to be smarter in the future. If something happens to you in the future, what will my sister do?"
Tang Sufan glanced at Lao Li with disgust and asked this question.
Changsun Wugou couldn't help but sneer, as if for some reason, it was because he had never seen Erlang being defeated.
Now I actually find it really interesting——
Li Shimin's face froze, this bitch really can't speak——
"Do you think that the current Saint is a jealous person?"
"Hum, I don't know if the current emperor is a jealous person, but we can't touch this without touching it. It's just some reputation. Even if it's a good reputation, sometimes it's not a good thing to carry it on your own head - "
"Li Er today is indeed a rare and capable emperor who can open up his voice, put his people first, and strengthen his military. I believe this -"
"He is naturally happy to push this kind of public concern over his head. I make my own money, and we help that person get a good reputation. Isn't that good?"
Li Shimin smiled lightly, pointed at Tang Sufan and cursed with a smile.
"You kid, you really got into the eyes of money——"
Changsun Wuji and the others laughed without saying a word, but Tang Sufan was indeed very skillful in handling this matter.
If you are an ordinary person, you would like to have this reputation of helping the people and saving lives on your head.
Although this kid said he was lazy, his real thoughts were much nobler than those of many people.
Li Shimin was naturally very concerned about the fact that in the past two years, there were rumors all over the world that he, Li Shimin, had been in the wrong position.
After receiving recognition from people like Tang Sufan, Li Shimin seemed to feel that other people's comments were no longer so important.
Although Li Shimin was very satisfied with this boy's approval, Tang Sufan's next sentence made him almost furious.
Tang Sufan sighed, shook his head and said.
"Hey, Lao Li, although you have been in business for several years, you are still a young person when you enter the officialdom. You have to be careful. You didn't even know that you were tricked that day. If you don't understand something in the future, just ask me. Did you know?"
Alas, what can you do if you are stuck with such an old father-in-law?
But who gave him a good daughter?
I used to think that my father-in-law was quite majestic, but as time goes by, Lao Li's image seems to be a bit broken——
Li Shimin's face turned dark, but I'm still a young child?
The entire officialdom belongs to me!
Forget it, don't be angry or not, it's all my fault for concealing my identity.
When I show my cards, I'll let you kid take a good look at who the chick is!
