Li Zhao almost believed what he said.
In fact, what he was playing was an information gap. Only those who worked in Prince You's Mansion knew how quickly and fiercely Li Zhao spent money.
There simply wasn't enough money.
He only counts what he earns to these people, not what he spends, thus creating the illusion that "I am not short of money at all."
The main reason is that Li Zhao is so confident.
When the accounts were calculated, Xue Jingwen was a little jealous, how about... robbed the dog prince?
Li Zhao noticed that the eyes of these people had changed, and said quickly: "Of course, it's not that I don't do your business, it's really... too busy."
Li Zhao was showing off his wealth just now, but the conversation changed to farm tools again.
"Your Majesty, even if you are too busy, you can still take this order first."
"Yeah, there's no delay!"
"How about each of us place a smaller order first?"
The more these people thought about it, the more they regretted it. They should not have listened to those bullies like Tang Junfeng and Du Xinyun.
Let’s talk about the Du family. Although they are mortal enemies with Li Zhao, wouldn’t the Du family buy the tools Li Zhao invented?
They only realized after the fact that whether Li Zhaoque was short of money or not, it had little to do with them.
Because these things were originally used to develop agriculture and improve the family's ability to survive, and they were necessities.
The later you get the goods, the more you will suffer.
Finally, and most importantly.
Li Zhao's things are useful, otherwise, the Du family would not stop them.
Those who had not broken up with Li Zhao before might have secretly placed a large number of orders. The more orders they placed, the longer the construction period on Li Zhao's side would be.
Li Zhao will definitely give priority to producing orders from people who trust him.
In addition, "more than two hundred people" placed orders yesterday, so there is a real possibility that Li Zhao doesn't want to take it.
If it were him, he would place a lot of orders at once, completely blocking the way for those behind him.
As long as the number of orders here at Li Zhao is saturated, it will be useless for subsequent people no matter how much money they have.
Because the statute of limitations protection period is only three months.
Within three months, if Li Zhao does not recruit more people, the order may not be completed.
Although there is a buffer period in the middle, if you ask Li Zhao to place an order again during the buffer period, you will definitely lose money.
Xue Jingwen and the others were rich and wanted to place an order, but Li Zhao's order volume was full.
I go to a brothel with you, and a stunning beauty is lying in front of you and posing. You have money, but you can't even get a turn in line. Are you angry?
Xue Jingwen and the others were particularly unhappy, probably because of this situation.
Li Zhao shook his head regretfully and said: "It's not that I don't help you, it's just that I can't do anything. After all, I really don't have enough workers over there."
Li Zhao looked extremely regretful and helpless. He clasped his fists at Xue Jingwen and the others and prepared to lead the others away, counting one, two, three silently in his heart.
"Your Highness, please wait!" Xue Jingwen shouted loudly, with a tangled expression on his face, as if he had made some kind of determination.
Li Zhao turned around and looked at Xue Jingwen with confusion: "This Mr. Xue, I have already said..."
"Your Highness!" Xue Jingwen interrupted Li Zhao and said with an extremely serious expression: "What if Your Highness has enough manpower?"
Li Zhao frowned and said: "If I really have enough manpower, I can take as many orders as I have!"
"I can help His Highness solve the problem of lack of manpower, but... I have only one request, and that is that Your Highness should give priority to my orders." Xue Jingwen looked at Li Zhao with burning eyes.
Li Zhao felt happy and took the bait.
However, Li Zhao's face was still full of confusion and he asked: "Do you have any idea?"
"Your Highness is just short of people. I can help your Highness recruit relevant personnel. It depends on whether Your Highness has the courage to ask for it." Xue Jingwen looked directly at Li Zhao, and his words were a bit irritating.
Li Zhao couldn't wait to praise the fat man on the spot. He immediately put on a magnanimous look and said with great pride: "I walk in an upright manner and sit upright. Why have I ever been afraid? I treat others sincerely, and others will also treat them sincerely." I."
"If you can really help me find these talents, I will dare to accept your big order in public and promise to deliver it as scheduled."
Seeing that Li Zhao was provoked and immediately agreed to his request, Xue Jingwen was overjoyed: he took the bait!
In fact, Xue Jingwen didn't have any evil intentions. Since you, King You, are short of people, I will help you find someone.
Three-legged toads are hard to find, but there is really no shortage of carpenters and blacksmiths.
Now it is no longer a matter of money. Xue Jingwen deeply understands how uncomfortable it is to fall behind others.
Even if these things from Li Zhao are free, it will be very slow to promote them.
The only one who can take advantage of others is Xiang!
"Deal!" Xue Jingwen was afraid that Li Zhao would regret it, so he said: "Your Highness, please give me two or three days, and I will definitely bring him over."
Li Zhao immediately clasped his fists solemnly and said, "Then I will be waiting for you."
"etc!"
Just when Li Zhao was about to turn around and leave, the group of people who had been watching the show couldn't sit still.
The stubborn Xue Jingwen agreed to advance and retreat together, but your mother-in-law sold everyone in the blink of an eye.
"What else do you want?" Li Zhao looked at the group of members of the aristocratic families in front of him.
"Your Majesty, are the conditions that Xue Jingwen mentioned just now counted on us?"
Looking at Li Zhao with earnest eyes, Li Zhao frowned slightly, showing a look of embarrassment, but he was extremely happy in his heart.
Now, all the good carpenters, blacksmiths, and bricklayers in Longyang Township and even Qingyun County have been poached by him, and there are not many technical talents left.
As for those who betray him, they will definitely not be hired.
Therefore, Li Zhao is too short of people.
As long as it's a technical job, Li Zhao wants it, and he's not picky.
Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills.
If you want others to help you work, how can you do it without acting?
Li Zhao had no intention of recruiting people by himself, as he would be targeted and would have many unnecessary spies brought in.
But when someone else takes the initiative, the situation is completely different.
What's more important is that Li Zhao is not afraid of the people who come in at this time, even if there are individual spies.
These things are all going to be announced anyway, it’s only a matter of time.
Of course, people in this era have relatively high moral standards and are not capable of stealing.
If anyone dares to build it privately before the imperial court announces it, or if the design drawings and tools are leaked, the ancestors of the person who built it will have to be scolded to death for eighteen generations, and even he and his tribe will have to be boycotted by everyone.
"This..." Li Zhao showed a troubled look and opened his eyes to tell lies: "Hey, forget it, who makes me kind-hearted? Let's do this. If you really can't find a carpenter, the rest can also be used. In fact, I What the king lacks now is a carpenter."
"It seems that King You really only needs a carpenter."
"Yes, wasn't it already rumored before? King You went crazy looking for the carpenter."
"Isn't there any in Qingyun County?"
"Yes, it's definitely not enough!"
Seeing Li Zhao make concessions, everyone felt warm in their hearts.
Who said King You Li Zhao was treacherous and cunning, they were in a hurry.
Haven’t you seen that people don’t want blacksmiths and bricklayers?
But in order to let everyone get the tools, he still made a compromise!
What a wonderful person this is.
Li Zhao never does things without aim, and the news has been released before this.
He is in dire need of carpenters!
In fact, Li Zhao is short of all types of work, needs it, and is not picky. Only by making everyone believe it can he create an illusion.
