Long before Li Junxian escorted Squirtle, Li Shimin had repeatedly emphasized that if he met the owner of this shop, he must treat him well, and if he caused any dissatisfaction, he would not have to come back.
Li Junxian naturally did not dare to neglect Li Fan when he saw him.
Everyone was shocked to see this scene! The man in front of him was obviously a businessman like himself!
Moreover, merchants had a lowly status in the Tang Dynasty, and the concept of scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans was deeply rooted in people's hearts.
But at this moment, seeing a guard around the emperor treat a businessman so politely, how could it not be shocking?
Li Fan looked at Li Junxian and just nodded slightly, then turned around and said sternly: "You also ran into the palace?"
Hearing Li Fan's words, Squirtle lowered his head and played with his fingers like a child who had done something wrong.
Then Li Fan turned around and pointed at Li Junxian and continued to look at everyone and said, "I don't care whether you accept his money or not, and it has nothing to do with me, but my money is the money for compensation, do you understand?"
Li Fan certainly couldn't let Li Shimin pay for this money. If he owed Li Shimin a favor, he would be in trouble in the future.
The old procuress who saw this scene was terrified. It was the first time she received money and she was terrified. She didn't dare to accept money from both sides!
What was special was Li Fan's side! Although we didn't know his identity! But from all the signs, everyone estimated that his identity must be more terrifying than the one next to him!
Li Junxian saw this scene and of course knew what Li Fan meant. He took the money back consciously and said,
"Boss, if there is nothing else, I will go back and report!"
Li Fan waved his hand and took Squirtle back to the store.
...
Three days passed quickly.
The busyness of Chang'an City on this day was a little unusual.
Although the people and merchants in Chang'an and the surrounding cities were still busy, their minds had long been wandering.
Three days ago, with the notices of major cities and the joint efforts of all officials, the news of heavy rain at noon today almost covered all the people of the Tang Dynasty.
At this moment, everyone on the street would look up at the sky from time to time.
"Will it really rain at noon? Why is there no reaction now?"
"Will it really rain on this sunny day? I have spent all my savings on seeds. If it doesn't rain, it will be all over..."
"Why are you in a hurry? Can what the current emperor said be false? The notices in front of the city gate are posted now. If you ask me, just wait patiently."
"Yes, if it really doesn't rain, I don't believe the court will not give us an explanation."
"..."
In addition to the people discussing, the nobles of the major families are also paying attention to this rain all the time.
It can be said that this rain is no longer a simple rain.
In the residence of the Cui family of Bo Ling,
A white-haired old man is sitting leisurely in a courtyard at this moment, and a servant is brewing tea in an orderly manner next to him.
This old man is Cui Yanliang, the old man of the Cui family. Cui Yanliang took the cup of hot tea handed over by the servant, blew it gently, and drank a sip with great enjoyment.
"Elder, I...what should I do next?" The voice came from Cui An outside the courtyard. After being seriously injured by Squirtle in the court last time, he has been recovering from his injuries. Now he has just recovered from his injuries and came to Cui's house to meet the elder.
This person was supported by Cui. Although he is now a third-rank official in the court, which is not a particularly high position, he has a very important voice in the court because of the support of Cui's power.
It can be said that without Cui, there would be no Cui An now.
After asking the question, Cui An lowered his head and waited for a reply with sweat on his forehead. Naturally, it was because he messed up this matter and Li Shimin did not write a confession.
Cui Yanliang in the courtyard did not speak, but tasted the brewed tea with a smile.
The quiet atmosphere made Cui An feel extremely nervous.
After a while, Cui Yanliang opened his mouth slightly and said calmly: "It's not your fault."
He naturally did not blame Cui An. Cui An had done a good job in this matter. He had been putting pressure on Li Shimin in the court, but who knew that he was thrown into disarray by the sudden appearance of Squirtle. Cui An even thought of a countermeasure as soon as he saw Squirtle.
It also shows that this person is still very smart.
But...
No one could have predicted Squirtle's ability...
Just then, a man in black suddenly appeared beside the courtyard and knelt on one knee. He bowed his hands and said in a hoarse voice: "Elder."
Cui An on the side subconsciously took a step back when he saw this person. Cui An had seen this person before. He was a secret guard trained by the Cui family.
The Cui family has a strong foundation.A total of 200 secret guards were trained. These secret guards were not only highly skilled in martial arts, but also good at various abilities, such as investigation, assassination, undercover, disguise, etc. These functions were clearly divided.
Cui Yanliang glanced at the man in black and whispered: "How is the matter I asked you to investigate?"
"Elder, the monster that appeared in the court three days ago was called Squirtle, and five days ago, the people also saw this monster appear near a farmland."
"After my secret investigation, I found that this monster came from a shop called Pokemon in Chang'an West City."
The man in black reported truthfully in a hoarse voice.
Cui Yanliang frowned, thinking, gently put down the teacup in his hand and said to himself: "Pokemon...Pokemon."
After that, he asked: "What's so special about this shop?"
"Just when I wanted to continue the investigation, I found that Li Shimin's personal guards were disguised nearby, so my people did not act rashly." The man in black continued.
Hearing the words of the man in black, Cui Yanliang nodded, thought for a moment and then continued: "Continue to pay close attention to this shop, and use all special means when appropriate." After saying that, Cui Yanliang's eyes flashed with a gleam of light.
Since it is protected by Li Shimin, this shop must be very important. As long as we continue to investigate, there will always be loopholes and corresponding strategies.
"Yes, elder."
"As for the immortal...I didn't find any useful information."
Cui An, who was standing by, heard the black-clothed man's words and suddenly thought of something. He hurried forward and said, "Elder, since Li Shimin issued the imperial edict, the people in all the major cities are waiting for rain today."
"So the shopkeepers of our rice shops are all wondering whether the rice price should continue to rise?"
Hearing Cui An's words, Cui Yanliang stood up and laughed,
Then he walked outside the courtyard and looked at the cloudless sky again and said, "Why not? Now is a good time to make a fortune."
After that, he stood with his hands behind his back, looked at Cui An and asked with a smile:
"Does that mean you also believe in Li Shimin's immortality?"
