Chapter 378 I planted it myself(1/2)

Li Hao would never admit that the plaque he had deliberately placed it in a conspicuous place in the backyard. All of this was because Chen Meng was careless and had nothing to do with Prince Wei.

He pointed to the chair opposite and signaled Wang Xuance to sit down. Li Hao smiled and said, "I just made a joke with you just now, don't take it to heart."

"Young student dare not."

How can people not bow their heads when they are under the eaves?

Wang Xuance looked at the young man in front of him nervously, always feeling that the other person's eyes were a little weird.

Li Hao nodded: "You go."

"Ah? What?" Wang Xuance didn't expect Li Hao to change his mind so easily, and was stunned for a moment.

Li Hao sneered: "The melon is not sweet. Since you have no intention of serving me, why should I force you? I, the dignified Prince Wei, don't have any face?"

When Wang Xuance saw that he was granted a general amnesty, he gave another tribute and did not even say goodbye. He also left Yangxinzhai, which was like a dragon and tiger den, as if he had escaped.

Since he came to Chang'an before the New Year, the one he heard the most was Prince Wei. Li Dejian was well-known, such as robbing men and women, forcing them to buy and sell, being arrogant because of favor, and being arrogant because of talent... It is simply a huge book.

If he knew that the carriage was from Li Hao at the moment he was hit by the car, he would not have walked with this scumbag even if he had his head crushed.

As for Li Hao's idea of ​​recruiting him, Wang Xuance had already guessed roughly after entering the house that made him envious, but he did not intend to follow Li Hao's wishes.

As the saying goes, learning civil and military skills, and selling it with the imperial family, Wang Xuance believed that he came to Beijing to participate in the imperial examination and serve the court. If he had been mixed up with an infamous guy halfway through, wouldn’t it be embarrassing?

Chen Meng stared at the background of Wang Xuance's hurried departure, couldn't help but feel angry, leaned over to Li Hao's ear and said, "This person is so ignorant. Young Master, should you arrange someone to beat him up at night?"

Li Hao smacked his lips and turned his head and said, "Chen Meng, my reputation is so bad now, you are still confused."

Chen Meng grinned and muttered in a low voice: "Young Master, I want me to say that your reputation is already bad enough anyway, how bad can it be?"

Is this a human word? Even if it is a fact, you can't say it explicitly.

Li Hao was furious and jumped up and pointed at Chen Meng's nose and said, "Get out of here, you can get out of here as far as your thoughts are."

"No, young master." Chen Meng shrank his neck and said, "Don't the villain want to vent his anger for you?"

"Get out of here, my reputation is ruined by you. Excitement! How many times have I told you that you should be convinced with virtue? Do you understand what it means to convince people with virtue?"

Seeing that Li Hao was really anxious, Chen Meng nodded repeatedly like a chicken pecking at the rice: "I understand, I understand, don't be angry, Master."

Li Hao suddenly missed Tiezhu a little. That stupid man didn't talk much, much better than Chen Meng's broken urging.

I don’t know what that kid Tiezhu is doing. He hasn’t even made any noise after so many days.

After a while of a daze, Li Hao called Chen Meng over again: "Send someone to call He Laojiu from the West City later. I have something to tell him as soon as possible."

"No!" Seeing that there was something serious, Chen Meng did not dare to neglect, so he agreed and went to find someone as Li Hao's instructions.

Compared with the former He Laojiu, today's He Laojiu's net worth has increased by more than tens of millions of times.

Although he is still a beggar on the surface, in fact, almost 20% of the shops in the entire West Market are under his name. He is definitely the most invisible rich man in Chang'an City.

But despite this, He Laojiu still did not dare to disobey Li Hao at all. When he heard Prince Wei summoning him, he immediately put down all the affairs at hand and appeared in front of someone.

"Master, are you looking for me?"

Li Hao's eyes flashed over He Laojiu's ten pearlescent fingers, and he said astonished: "Tsk tsk tsk tsk, I said Lao He, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you have lived a lot of glory in this little life."

He Laojiu smiled embarrassedly: "Oh, look at what you said, aren't this all thanks to you for your blessing?"

"Okay, I won't talk nonsense to you. Today I came to you to ask you to find someone for me."

"Sure, you said." He Laojiu stood respectfully behind Chen Meng, his face frowned.

"The person I am looking for is Wang Xuance. He is a candidate for this year's spring exam. Please help me ask why he came to Dongshi today. By the way, I will ask about who is around him and what they do. Can you do it?"

"No problem, I'll send you the news tomorrow morning." He Laojiu responded to Li Hao's request without thinking.

For his Beggars' Sect, Li Hao's request was simply too simple. He just needs to send someone to inquire and get the exact news immediately.

...

Besides, Wang Xuance, who left Yangxinzhai, walked out of the dragon and tiger den in his impression, stood at the corner of the street and looked at a shop about thirty feet away and was stunned for a while, with a little hatred in his eyes.

Huaiyuan Clothing Store, one of the best cloth shops in Chang'an City, was initially opened by two owners.

One of the owners was Wang Xuance's father, but because of an accident, Wang's father died of illness while purchasing goods. Unexpectedly, another owner of the cloth store not only did not compensate the prince, but instead took the opportunity to bribe the government and filed a charge of absconding with the money to Wang's father. He also found a reason to turn the combined cloth store into his own private property.

Now, after five years, Wang Xuance has finally grown up, but Chang'an has changed a lot. The officials who were in charge of the business were transferred from another place, and the guys who knew about this did not know where to go. Even if Wang Xuance had great skills, he could only do nothing.

Youyou sighed, Wang Xuance withdrew his thoughts and unconsciously looked back at Yangxinzhai. As the young Prince Wei, he would have to ask for his own things for himself, so that it would be easy for the sinners to pay the price.

It’s a pity that I am not on the same path as the young Prince Wei, so... I should rely on myself. As long as I can get a good ranking in the spring exam, I will definitely be able to save my father’s grievances.

...

In a blink of an eye, a night passed, and the east once again turned white, and the Furong Garden, which had been quiet for more than a year, became lively again.

Teams of elite imperial guards entered the park and set up countless tents.

The Ziyun Building in the center of the park is filled with hundreds of merchants from all over the Tang Dynasty and surrounding countries.

These people gathered under a huge sign, stretched their necks and looked at the announcement above. The fees listed in the announcement made the merchants very shocked.

A chair is rented for three taels, a table is rented for ten taels, and the insurance premium is charged at 5% of the quotation of the goods. The security fee is five taels of silver per day for each imperial guard. This does not count the venue rental fee and material transportation fee.

"Get up, grab money, this is." After seeing the quotation clearly, someone shouted.

"No one forces you to pay the money. If you don't want to pay it, you can't pay it." Someone pointed at the word "voluntary".

"Satisfied, your head fee has not been charged yet. In a few years, maybe you have to pay the head fee according to the head fee." Someone hid in the crowd and complained.

"Yes, this suggestion is very good. Who should I write it down, and the sales will be charged according to the head of the person next year." A eunuch who was guarding the announcement shouted excitedly.

Everyone: "..."

Tomorrow is the day for the opening of the exhibition. In order to save time, the Ministry of Revenue allows merchants to enter the park in advance to set up the venue.

Given that the exhibition has been held twice before and each time it has achieved great success, merchants naturally will not miss the opportunity. Even if the price of renting chairs is enough to buy ten chairs outside, these people still flock to it and plunge into the charging room inside Ziyun Building.

Li Chengqian stood high on Ziyun Tower, looking at the crazy merchant below, and looked at the face of confusion: "Is the price of this palace low?"

Li Hao leaned against the railing, holding a peach in his hand and dripped the juice. He said, "The price is already good. No matter how high it is, I am afraid that these merchants will be scared away. No one will come to participate in the exhibition. That's so embarrassing."

Li Chengqian licked his lips, turned his head and stared at Li Hao and said hatefully, "No, can you tell me where did you get the peaches from this cold day?"

"Of course I grew it myself." Li Hao rolled his eyes, turned his back to Li Chengqian, squirted, and then sipped again: "Well, it tastes delicious, so sweet."

Li Chengqian's head is full of black lines: "..."

Isn’t it just a peach? It’s like anyone else is interested in it. If you don’t go to the East Palace to eat my grapes in summer.

Just as he was thinking about grapes, he saw Li Hao pull out two grapes from somewhere, throwing them into his mouth, whispering!

My God, I can't bear it anymore.

Seeing Li Hao enjoying food, Li Chengqian finally couldn't bear it anymore and pulled him up and down to search.

"Hey, what are you doing..." Li Hao struggled wildly, but the power of foodies is irresistible.

After a moment, Li Chengqian bit a peach and breathed a sigh of satisfaction: "Well, it's comfortable. Dejian, do you know what I admire most?"

Li Hao said indifferently: "I have so many advantages, how do I know what you admire most?"

"Okay, I must admit that your shamelessness is indeed the best in the Tang Dynasty, and it is impossible for me to be dissatisfied."

"real?"

"Fake."

"Hahaha……"

After laughing, Li Chengqian looked at Li Hao: "Tell me, where did these things come from? Oh yes, don't say that they were saved last year. There is the best storage technology in the palace, but the things are still not so fresh."

"I told you that I planted it myself." Li Hao turned around and hooked his fingers at Chen Meng who was standing not far away, took a bag from his hand, reached out and touched it for a while, took out a fresh peach with branches and leaves, and threw it over to Eunuch Chang who couldn't help swallowing.

"Thank you, my grandfather." Eunuch Chang hurriedly caught Taozi, licked his lips, and handed it to Li Chengqian: "Your Highness, I'll give it to you."

"Damn it, you flattery, have a future." Li Hao laughed and cursed, stuffing the bag in his hand directly into Li Chengqian who was staring at him.

In the bag, there are three peaches, and there are several cucumbers left and one cold melon (that is watermelon).

Now, Li Chengqian was satisfied and waved his hand at Eunuch Chang with disdain: "Young Master rewards you, just keep it for food."

"Thank you for your reward." Eunuch Chang happily hugged the peach in his arms, wiped it again and again, but he couldn't bear to say anything.

Fresh peaches in winter are no different from immortal products to Eunuch Chang. He dare not eat them casually like the prince.

Li Chengqian weighed the bag in his hand, hesitated for a moment and stuffed it into Eunuch Chang's hand, and said with a little regret: "Save it for your father and mother, I have already eaten a peach."

"Your Highness is kind and filial. Your Majesty will be very pleased when he knows it." Eunuch Chang immediately flattered.

Only Li Hao curled his lips disapprovingly: "You can stop me. I have sent someone to send him to the palace, and even the Supreme Emperor has them. These are for you."

"real?"

Li Hao nodded: "I'm a puppy."

Then what else is there to say? Li Chengqian immediately snatched the bag from Eunuch Chang's hand, took out a cucumber, and bit off half of it in one bite: "Well, it's delicious, it's so delicious."

Li Hao smiled without saying a word, turned around and walked towards the Ziyun Tower.

Peaches, cucumbers and other things are all grown from glass greenhouses built by the Biological Institute of Technology. The yield is not large, and the total is only three to five hundred kilograms.
