I am the cook, but I am Li Er's son-in-law

Chapter 516 Li Shimin's Plan for the First Ancient Emperor

Li Shimin was taken aback by Li Jing's words.

"I didn't expect this kid to teach me a lesson." Li Shimin curled his lips and laughed, "But..."

Speaking of this, he paused and lowered his voice: "What I didn't do, I let this kid do it. Unfortunately, it would be great if he didn't suffer from that disease."

What Yin Xuan said that came out of Li Jing's mouth was actually quite nonsense.

Could Li Shimin not know?

In other words, can the past dynasties not know?

They are all very clear.

But so what?Being clear does not mean that it can be done. It is very simple to solve this problem. You only need to do two things well. These two things can be summed up in two words: "money" and "food".

The people have enough food and clothing, and with the nature of the Chinese land since ancient times, fewer people will naturally choose to do evil.

But how to solve these two words...

It has always been the most troublesome thing in all dynasties.

Li Shimin also has a headache about this matter. Under his governance, things have improved a bit, and now it can barely be called a "prosperous age".But this prosperity is relative.

There will still be some people who can't eat and will be hungry, green forests, bandits, and horse bandits, there will still be those things that should be there.

Yin Xuan did not enter the court.

But just so silently, under his influence in Huaizhenfang, every family has become rich, at least there are so many people in the restaurant, and there are also many people sitting in the few barbecue stalls over there.

Scholars and merchants only accounted for more than half of them.

When will ordinary people be able to afford these foods?

Li Shimin sighed, picked up Cheng Yaojin's wine glass, and took a big gulp.

Cheng Yaojin stared.

Li Shimin glanced back.

Cheng Yaojin shrank his neck, and took back his half-empty wine glass with an aggrieved expression on his face.Originally, there was not much to drink in a day, but His Majesty let me take away so much...

It's not easy to tell Yin Xuan about this matter. Once you tell it, whether it's for you or your majesty, they won't be able to touch alcohol for at least half a month.

Hmm... It's only one day if they come here for half a month.

For example, if you come back in half a month, that day will be counted as the first day.

Yin Xuan baked them for them, served them on the table himself, looked at Li Shimin, a little surprised: "Today is so busy, do you still have time to come over tonight?"

Li Shimin glanced at the light bulb, picked up a mutton skewer, and ate it familiarly: "I heard from my father that you have a novelty, so I took the time to take a look..."

He wasn't finished yet.

Yin Xuan immediately asked, "Where is my mother-in-law?"

Li Shimin was stunned.

Yin Xuan smacked his lips: "Look at you, do you still have my mother-in-law in your heart? Since you are going to come over for supper at night, why don't you bring her along."

"You came, it turned out to be good, leaving my mother-in-law at home alone, guarding the window, how can I be dark alone."

Li Shimin was stabbed in the heart.

He obviously came here because of the electric light, but he was described as a heartless person.

"I..." He opened his mouth, opened it up and down and closed it for a while, then sighed, "Forget it, it was indeed my negligence this time, and I will definitely bring your mother-in-law with me next time."

A scholar next to him poked his head, his eyes sparkled: "Shopkeeper, your last sentence is interesting. Is it a new poem?"

Yin Xuan was taken aback.

seems like it?The last sentence just came out of the mouth, as if it was Li Qingzhao's words?

"No, no, nonsense!" Yin Xuan threw out three consecutive denials, "I just think it's easy to say, just talk about it."

The scholar was a little disappointed: "I thought the store had new words."

Yin Xuan rolled his eyes, don't even think about it!

It is impossible for me to take the route of a cultural person, so let those old things go with the wind.

Li Jing stood up suddenly, and sat down: "I have a song about knights given to me by the store, do you want to listen to it?"

Yin Xuan's eyes widened, and he looked at Li Jing, what a guy...you big-eyed guy has become a traitor too?

The scholars hurriedly gave up their seats and waited for Li Yuan to sit down.

Someone even poured Li Jing a glass of wine.

Li Jing didn't drink, and turned to look at Yin Xuan. Whether he can drink or not depends on Yin Xuan's approval.

Yin Xuan glanced at Li Jing's beer glass, there was more than half of it left, and nodded: "You can drink it if you want, but there is only two taels."

Li Jing was overjoyed when he heard this.

"But don't think about your remaining beer." Yin Xuan took his glass and picked it up.

Li Jing was a little disappointed, but it was worthwhile to exchange half a glass of beer for two taels of Jade Jingqiu.

Li Shimin straightened up suddenly, staring eagerly at Yin Xuan—the wine glass in his hand.

Yin Xuan sneered and waved his hand: "Don't think I didn't see you snatching old man Cheng's wine just now, it's not bad if I didn't punish you."

He poured the half glass of wine into Cheng Yaojin's glass: "Don't even think about these wines."

Li Shimin was surprised: "Have you seen all this?"

Yin Xuan smiled complacently, and pushed the non-existent glasses: "Let me tell you, don't think that what you do is perfect. I can clearly see every little move you make next to the... oven."

The tone of these words is very indifferent.

But for some reason, Li Shimin, Li Yuan and others all had goosebumps, as if being targeted by creatures higher up the food chain.

Li Jing shrank his neck, and talked about the heroism with the scholars.

Li Shimin slapped his forehead: "By the way, I almost forgot the business."

Yin Xuan pulled Li Jing's chair and sat down, waiting for Li Shimin to speak.

"What is the cost of your... power generation?" Li Shimin asked after deliberating.

Yin Xuan replied honestly: "The cost is quite low. If it is spread out on a large scale, just turn on the electric lights, and each household only needs [-] to [-] Wen per month."

This is the electricity price calculated by Yin Xuan based on the coal fired just now.

Li Shimin raised his eyebrows. He thought that something that would glow at night would be so precious, but he didn't expect that a family would only need twenty or thirty coins?
"Are you going to do this business next?" Li Shimin asked again after deliberation.

Yin Xuan narrowed his eyes and smiled slightly: "My dear old man, what do you mean?"

Li Shimin trembled, Yin Xuan had never been so eager for him.

"Ahem." Li Shimin coughed twice and cleared his throat, "I think... how about cooperating with the imperial court?"

"Wanting to promote this thing is not something that happens overnight. Although you are a county magistrate, you have always had a high reputation in Chang'an, but without the help of the imperial court, it will cost a lot of money to do it."

To be honest, Li Shimin was hungry.

What a credit it must be to make every household as bright as day at night!

Among other things, as long as he completes this matter, he can lie on the credit book and call himself "the first emperor of all ages" without any burden.
