Li Yuan kept talking for a long time, all he meant was that he had no money.
Li Ke refused to give up and asked: "Aweng, is that a little bit?"
"Old Hei, how much money do we have left?" Li Yuan turned around and asked the old eunuch.
The old eunuch smiled awkwardly and said: "Your Majesty, your expenses have been relatively large these years. The money your Majesty gives you every year is not enough for you. Now we have five thousand coins!"
Li Ke screamed like a groundhog in his heart.
Five thousand guan. As the Supreme Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, you actually have the wealth of 5,000 guan.
Why don't you find a piece of tofu and kill him?
"Give it to Ke'er!"
"Sell all the unused things when you get back and send the money to Ke'er."
Lao Hei nodded, but he had mixed feelings in his heart. The things the Emperor said he would not use were probably the jewelry left by the Queen Mother.
Li Ke sighed, five thousand guan, just five thousand guan, it is better than nothing.
And these five thousand dollars are his grandfather's pension money.
"Thank you Aweng!"
Then Li Ke asked: "Ah Weng, among all the officials in the dynasty, whose family is the richest?"
Li Yuan immediately became vigilant. Could this kid have tricked Changsun Wuji once and become addicted?
"You kid aren't going to trick people again, are you?"
"Ke'er, you can't do this kind of thing. You must be upright. A gentleman loves money and gets it in a proper way." Li Yuan didn't want to think that because of money, Li Ke would go down a wrong path.
When children should be educated, they must be educated. As the king of Shu, Li Ke is even more concerned with the royal family's face.
Li Ke was speechless!
It seems that his reputation is so bad that even his own grandfather no longer believes in his character.
"Don't worry, Aweng, my grandson is definitely a gentleman."
"The ancients said that if you have a family and a career, you can conquer the world. If your grandchild doesn't have any big ambitions, just start a family and establish a career. As for whether you can conquer the world, it depends on your future mood."
"After you get married, your grandson will be a real man. It's time to shoulder the burden of the family. You said that firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, tea, everything needs money. The little money given by the court is not enough to fill the gap between teeth. You can't If you have a child in the future, let him live a hard life with me, right?"
"In order to live a hard life in the future, my grandson wants to start a business first..."
Li Yuan also smiled when he heard Li Ke's future plans. Ke'er has really grown up and become sensible!
"To say that the honorable man in Chang'an City is rich, Aweng can only say that except our Li family, everyone else is rich."
"But except for that Wei Zheng..."
After learning about the nobles of Chang'an City from the Supreme Emperor, Li Ke began to calculate how much money each family should pay.
Although he lost a bit of royal dignity, this was all because of Li Shimin's force.
He wanted to borrow all the ministers of civil and military affairs in the dynasty.
After seeing off the Supreme Emperor, Li Ke took Haizhu to Li Jing's house. For Li Ke, the grounding was just a joke. If he wanted to go out, who would dare to stop him?
Li Jing is not at home?
When they arrived at Li Jing's house, the housekeeper said that Li Jing had accompanied the young lady and his wife to offer incense.
Did Li Jing run away knowing that he was coming to borrow money?
If you can run away from a monk, you can't run away from a temple. You will have to borrow money sooner or later.
Li Ke waited all afternoon, and Li Jing's family finally arrived. Li Jing was stunned when he heard that the King of Shu was visiting. Today, his family went to the Buddha to burn incense and pray for the King of Shu, hoping that he would wake up soon.
Unexpectedly, they had such a bright idea. As soon as they got home, the King of Shu got better and even came to their home.
"Husband, I just said that the temple is very spiritual and the fifty guan is well spent."
Li Jing wants to slander his wife to death, you are just a prodigal woman, give her fifty guan for the incense, she feels so sorry for him.
Fifty guan is his monthly salary.
"Dad, mother, my daughter is going back to her room first!"
Li Shuwan also wanted to meet Li Ke, but they were not married yet and were not allowed to meet in private before they got married. This would be bad for her reputation.
The two of them watched Li Shuwan go to the boudoir and headed towards the living room.
Li Ke lay on the chair and almost fell asleep.
"Cough cough cough..." Li Jing coughed and then said: "I have met the King of Shu."
Li Ke quickly stood up and said with a smile: "My son-in-law has met the two elders."
Buddha Hongnu stepped forward, looked at her for a long time, and then she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's really good. That Buddha is really smart. I will give you a hundred strings next time!"
Li Jing: "..."
When Li Ke heard that Li Jing was burning incense, he actually gave the old bald donkey a hundred guan. This Li Jing was really rich. It seemed that he didn't have to worry about borrowing money.
"May I ask if King Shu is here for business or private matters?"
Li Ke stopped hiding it, cupped his fists and said, "Father-in-law, my son-in-law is here to borrow money from you today."
"My son-in-law is getting married soon. I want to start a business before getting married, but I don't have enough start-up capital..."
"My son-in-law was originally rich, but recently the Tang Dynasty was about to go to war with Tuyuhun, but the national treasury was short of money and food. There is a saying that goes well: When the country prospers, every man has the responsibility..."
"As the emperor's son, since he can't contribute to the country, it is his duty to contribute money."
"My son-in-law will donate all one million to the national treasury."
Li Jing gave a thumbs up and praised: "The king of Shu is so righteous!"
But he didn't believe it in his heart. He didn't know who the King of Shu was. It was definitely not donated to the treasury. His Majesty might have tricked him.
But the red Buddha girl's heart melted. This son-in-law couldn't help but understand women, and he also understood the justice of the country.
"Son-in-law, my family is rich, tell me how much you want..."
"The more, the merrier!" Li Ke was overjoyed and quickly took his mother-in-law's hand, which was closer than his own mother.
Li Jing slapped Li Ke's hand away, took his wife and smiled: "King Shu, don't listen to her nonsense, I don't have any food left at home."
"Li Jing, money is something external to the body. If you don't bring it with you in life, you won't take it with you in death. You only have the little money you have, and you still hide it..."
Red Buddha Girl is not happy now. The King of Shu gave you a tea set worth 300,000 gu without blinking an eye. Isn't she happy to lend you a little money?
Li Jing was furious. If you are not a householder, you really don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and tea are. There are more than thirty people in the Li family. They have to eat, drink, and have diarrhea every day. How can they not need money?
His monthly salary of Li Jing is sixty-six guan. Even with various subsidies, it is only a hundred guan.
He knew his wife's character, and might want to lend all the money to the King of Shu. If he said it was a loan, it would be like a meat bun beating a dog, and she would never get it back. ŴŴŴ.BiQuGe.Biz
"Madam, such a big family depends entirely on my salary..."
Li Ke wasn't happy either. Li Jing was a bitch, he just borrowed money and didn't refuse to pay it back.
"I have made the decision. I will lend the fifty thousand yuan to my son-in-law."
Li Jing was stunned. Didn't his family have 80,000 yuan? Why are there only 50,000 strings left?
Could it be that this prodigal woman recently spent another 30,000 yuan?
Li Jing said with a dark face: "That is Wan'er's dowry. Once the wedding date comes out, what will we use as dowry?"
The red Buddha girl rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "Anyway, the dowry will be given to the King of Shu sooner or later, and it will be the same if it is given now!"
Then she looked at Li Ke and said with a smile: "Son-in-law, do you think this is true?"
Li Ke: "Yes..."
That's the truth, but isn't the dowry of 50,000 yuan a bit small?
When Li Jing heard this, he suddenly woke up. Madam, this is...
Li Jing instantly felt confident. Madam wanted to send her daughter away for 50,000 yuan!
The family still has thirty thousand left!
Madam is brilliant!
So he said with great embarrassment: "In that case, I'll give you these 50,000 guan."
Li Ke also didn't expect that he came to borrow money, but in the end he went back carrying the dowry.
Moreover, the dowry is too small. To marry a daughter of an honorable official from Chang'an City, the dowry must be at least 50,000 yuan.
But your son-in-law is worth tens of thousands in Datang!
How could he just spend a mere 50,000 guan on it?
