Datang: An eight-year-old master of the bar, he gave everyone a blow at the beginning

Chapter 246 Xu Jingzong asks Li Er for help
When Xu Jingzong saw Li Er, he paid homage to him and said, "My minister, see Your Majesty!"

"Xu Jingzong, please stand up straight!" Li Er waved his hand and ordered Xu Jingzong to stand up straight.

Empress Changsun asked Xu Jingzong in advance.

"Xu Jingzong, how are you doing with the matters your Majesty has assigned you?"

Empress Changsun wanted to know how the soap was selling, after all, this was a business worth [-] yuan!

It was Princess Changshan who handed it over to Li Er for sale, and the annual income of the Tai Chi Palace Harem is no more than that.

Empress Changsun must also be tempted.

"Empress Empress, I have sold out all the soaps according to His Majesty's order, for a total of [-] coins!"

Xu Jingzong replied without hesitation.

Li Er was dumbfounded and said: "Xu Jingzong, it seems that the soap I gave you can only be sold for [-] guan, right? Why are there [-] guan more?"

"Your Majesty's words are so true, this concubine also finds it strange!"

Empress Changsun learned that Xu Jingzong paid [-] guan more for selling soap, and she was very happy for Li Er!
No one has a grudge against money!What's more, now Datang needs money everywhere for disaster relief!
Empress Changsun felt that the more the better!

"Your Majesty, the soap you handed over to Weichen is really very popular. Chang'an Cheng Xungui finally got the rose soap at auction, and the most expensive soap sold for [-] yuan a piece!" Xu Jingzong explained to Li Er in an orderly manner!

"So that's how it is!" Li Erlong Yan Dayue said: "The extra [-] guan can be replenished to the Shaofu treasury!"

"My minister complies with the decree!" Xu Jingzong was overjoyed, the Shaofu had [-] guan more, and he could do many things again.

For example, building granaries and water conservancy facilities, these are things that Shaofu needs to do well before farming.

Although Xu Jingzong is greedy for money and lustful, he prefers promotion!
And Li Er's money bag, Xu Jingzong dare not be greedy for a dime!Otherwise, he is afraid of killing the Nine Clans.

Empress Changsun sighed: "Unexpectedly, all the nobles in Chang'an City are so rich!"

"Queen, each of your noble families has more than a thousand acres of fertile land, and they don't have to pay taxes. Of course they are rich!"

Li Er sighed and said, "In the entire Chang'an city, I'm probably the poorest. Even the palace hasn't been repaired in four years!"

"Um... Your Majesty, we are not short of food. Let's repair the palace later!" Empress Changsun also sighed helplessly.

"What the queen said is true!" Li Er finally followed the advice of empress Changsun.

Xu Jingzong was sweating profusely and said: "Your Majesty, I have something to announce!"

"Xu Jingzong, you did a good job? Why are you sweating?"

Li Er curiously said: "The main thing is not about murder, arson and treason, I can spare you even if you don't die!"

"Your Majesty, the Dukes of Lu and Lord Wei are blocking the door of the Shaofu begging for soap!"

Xu Jingzong was about to cry but said without tears: "But all the rose soap is sold out. They won't leave if they can't buy it. We are helpless!"

"They're so silly!"

Li Er stood up and said, "Xu Jingzong, go and tell them that I will reward each of them with a piece of soap!"

"The minister complies with the order!" Xu Jingzong received Li Er's order, and secretly said with a sigh of relief: "Your Majesty, the [-] coins will be brought here immediately!"

"Go!" Li Er immediately waved Xu Jingzong away!

"Resign!" After Xu Jingzong left the Ganlu Palace, Li Er ordered the eunuch to bring 100 yuan of sulfur soap to Cheng Yaojin and the others.

As for the rose soap, Li Er liked it so much that he was reluctant to give it away!

"Your Majesty, why didn't you reward Lord Yan Yan Chu with rose soap?"

Empress Changsun couldn't laugh or cry, she was amused by Li Er's petty behavior.

Li Er wrenched his fingers and said, "Queen, a piece of rose soap is 100 guan, and [-] yuan is [-] guan. I feel sorry for the money!"

"Your Majesty, when the rose soap was auctioned it was only [-] guan, and it will still be sold at the original price in the future!"

Empress Changsun believes that honesty is the foundation of business!
"I know!" Li Er nodded arrogantly, looking like a rich man.

Empress Changsun stayed in Ganlu Hall and waited for Xu Jingzong to bring [-] guan in cash!
The 800 yuan soap was sold for so much money, and Empress Changsun couldn't believe it.

This soap is so profitable.

At the gate of the Shaofu, Cheng Yaojin, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others were hungry and waiting for Xu Jingzong to come back!
They also had no idea whether Li Er would give them a satisfactory answer!

"The imperial edict has arrived!" Before even a stick of incense was available, Xu Jingzong arrived at the young manor with the eunuch who delivered the edict!

The 100 yuan sulfur soap was also carried by the eunuch!

Although the sulfur soap is not big, Li Er’s reward needs to be packaged in a brocade box, otherwise it will not show the royal grace!

The princes and relatives who were sitting at the gate of the Shaofu had their eyes lit up, feeling that the trip was worthwhile!

"My minister accepts the order!" Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng, Cheng Yaojin and the others were overjoyed!

"By God's blessing, the emperor ordered that today I obtained Yuchihuan's tribute soap. The soap can replace bath beans and benefit all people. I specially give it to you dear ones to use. I respect you!"

"Thank you Lord Long En!" All the princes smiled.

"My lords, here is your majesty's reward!" Xu Jingzong arranged for eunuchs to distribute sulfur soap to Changsun Wuji and the others.

Changsun Wuji was the first to get the brocade box, but as soon as he opened it, he found that nine out of ten places inside were empty!

Only in the middle is a piece of sulfur soap!

"Your Majesty, isn't this too stingy?"

Changsun Wuji was speechless, he wondered if he was Li Er's brother-in-law!
How can there be a brother-in-law who treats his brother-in-law so perfunctorily?

Cheng Yaojin also opened the brocade box to observe the soap, but he was greatly disappointed in the result!
But when Cheng Yaojin learned that his brother-in-law, eldest grandson Wuji, was also treated in the same way, Cheng Yaojin was relieved.

Li Er treats everyone like this, Cheng Yaojin should be grateful!

On the contrary, Fang Xuanling and Li Jing paid more attention to Li Er's reward and didn't care how expensive the gift was, so they were in a good mood.

"Dear princes, I have given you soap, it's time to get to work!"
