I'm about to become an immortal, do you want me to be a prince?

That is, the old minister of Wude that Wang De said.

Li Shimin held a grudge, and ate them one meal a day, and four meals in three days, and the extra meal was considered a gift, depending on Li Shimin's mood.

So, Li Mu saw such a thing today.

Li Mu's face immediately turned into a gassy expression.

Why, this old Li is too tasteless, isn't that all right?

Then, after these unlucky veterans of Wude got out of Li Shimin's kennel, Li Mu walked in cautiously.

I am afraid that Li Shimin will anger him, after all, he built the swimming pool.

"What are you doing here?" Li Shimin asked with a look of displeasure.

Proud!

How arrogant!

Li Mu quickly put on a smiling face, "Old Li, there is something I want to discuss with you."

"what's up?"

"Fix the road!"

"Building roads? Why build roads?"

"Come here to build the Daming Palace for the convenience of transporting materials!"

After hearing this, Li Shimin frowned slightly, and then waved his hands directly, "No money, no repair!"

According to Li Shimin's thinking, he didn't even intend to build the Daming Palace for Li Yuan to live in. If it is slower, it will be slower. I am still young, so I can wait, take my time!

When Li Mu heard this, his toothache instantly ached.

Of course he knew what Li Shimin was thinking, but he also had his own!

He wanted to build roads, not just to carry the building materials of Daming Palace.

Most of them are for the investment projects in their own hands.

Many of Li Mu's investment projects are in the Northwest and Hetao areas.

Such as cement red brick soap briquettes and other things.

Coal briquettes are what Li Mu crushed out of coal mines, that is, briquettes.

This stuff is old.

But limited by logistics, he couldn't open the market.

So he has to build roads.

Not only roads to the northwest, Hetao, and Guannei must be built, but also roads to the Western Regions.

After all, he still wants to export things like tiles, porcelain, silk, new paper, etc. to foreign countries.

Therefore, the road must be repaired.

Just taking the opportunity of building Daming Palace this time, let Li Shimin build it, so it will be justified.

The point is, he can even make some money without paying him.

Because road construction is also a big project, the people in the "Hengda Real Estate Construction Company" under him have a wide range of business.

Therefore, for Li Shimin's rejection, Li Mu will not give up easily.

So he said in a persuasive manner, "Old Li, building roads is a great merit, and it benefits the country and the people. It is famous through the ages!"

Li Shimin's eyes suddenly lit up, but he was very interested in anything that could improve his resume and reputation.

But when you think of such a large project, how much will it cost?

Thinking of Kaiyuan Tongbao splashing out like running water, Li Shimin's heart seemed to be bleeding.

So he hesitated, and he really didn't have that much money now.

So he said with a embarrassed face, "I don't have much money left."

When Li Mu heard this, why can't this old Li turn his head around? No one wants you to pay for it.

So Li Mu hurriedly said, "Old Li, building roads is a state matter, do you know state affairs?"

Li Shimin looked confused.

Li Mu continued to explain, "National affairs, of course, use the money from the national treasury, what kind of internal funds are used?"

When Li Shimin heard this, he immediately became excited.

That's right, I build roads for the benefit of the country, not for personal gain.

Therefore, it is justifiable to use public funds!

But then all of a sudden it faded away again.

"Boy Li Mu, you don't know that the auxiliary machine has recently stepped down from the post of Secretary of the Ministry of Civil Affairs."

Ok?

Uh-huh? ?

What do you mean?

In other words, the Minister of Finance has changed now?

Li Mu roughly understood it.

That's what happened.

When Changsun Wuji acted as Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, because of his relationship with Li Shimin, the national treasury was about the same as Li Shimin's private money.

Basically, Li Shimin can spend whatever he wants. As Li Shimin's uncle, Changsun Wuji is of course on Li Shimin's side!

So later this incident aroused the dissatisfaction of the ministers.

Old Wei pointed directly at Li Shimin and yelled, "Foolish Lord!"

Then he pointed at Changsun Wuji and shouted, "Traitor!"

As a result, Changsun Wuji was dismissed from office and withdrew from the position of Minister of Finance.

Tang Jian, the former Minister of Foreign Affairs, took over.

It is obvious that Old Tang and Li Shimin don't wear the same pair of trousers.

This guy used to hang out with Li Yuan and belonged to the old minister of Wude.

Therefore, it is not so easy for Li Shimin to plan to use the national treasury again.

After Li Mu finished understanding, Suo Ga!

"Tang Jian, Duke of Ju?"

"Exactly!"

Li Mu patted his breast, "Leave this matter to me, Lao Li, you just have to wait for my good news."

"Really?"

Li Mu nodded seriously.

Then he turned his head and went straight to Li Yuan's kennel.

what to do?

Find Li Yuan to settle Tang Jian, he still owes Li Mu a favor for Li Yuan's swimming pool.

But when Li Mu came to Li Yuan's kennel, he was so frightened that he almost ran away without turning around.

Because... Princess Danyang is also present.

At this time Li Yuan was eating noodles.

When he saw Li Mu, he hurriedly greeted him.

"Li Mu, you came just in time, do you want some noodles? I asked Yingniang to give you some, do you want it?"

Li Mu: "..."

Chapter 106 Noodles, don't dare to eat them indiscriminately!

Everyone can cook noodles, but it is actually very difficult to cook them deliciously.

90.00% of the nine people below are not delicious.

This is Li Mu's experience.

So he said no.

"No need for the emperor, how dare I bother the princess, I am here today, I have something important to find the emperor."

"Oh? What's the matter, let's talk about it."

Li Yuan put down his chopsticks and looked at Li Mu seriously.

Then Li Mu told Li Yuan about the road construction.

Li Yuan nodded after listening, and promised that he would take care of it.

In fact, even without mentioning Li Mu helping him fix the swimming pool, Li Yuan is positive enough to say that building roads can speed up the construction period of Daming Palace.

Therefore, Li Yuan readily agreed to persuade Tang Jian to take the lead in appropriating funds for road construction.

Then one day Old Tang received an invitation to a multiplayer sports party from the old leader, Comrade Li Yuan.

Location, Li Yuan's private swimming pool.

Old Tang's friendship with Li Yuan, what should I say?

It can be regarded as an old friendship, as early as the Northern Qi Dynasty, the Tang family and the Li family were already flirting with each other.

The Tang family also made outstanding contributions when the Li family acquired Dasui Co., Ltd. later.

Therefore, Tang Jian and Li Yuan are definitely regarded as revolutionary friendship.

So, after Old Tang received the invitation letter, he ran to the appointment with a happy expression on his face.

He even brought some fruit or something, after all, to visit the old leader or something, he must bring some gifts!

This fruit was something he bought from a Hu merchant in the West Market at a high price. It was imported, and Datang didn't have it.

So Old Tang came happily carrying the fruit.

At this time, Comrade Li Yuan was paddling in the swimming pool, enjoying the cream sorbet fed to him by his wives.

Then his little eunuch came to report.

"Report to the Emperor, the Duke of Ju to see you."

"Oh, Maoyue is here, let him wait a moment, I'll go there now."

Li Yuan lazily poked the spoon in his hand into the glass, and handed it to the little wife next to him.

Then I went out of the pool and put on a nearly transparent silk bathrobe.

Swaggeringly came to see Tang Jian.

After seeing Tang Jian, Li Yuan was very happy.

With a smile on his face, he looked very hospitable.

"The Emperor..."

"Maoyue, you are here, sit down quickly!"

Li Yuan behaved very casually.

But Tang Jian was shocked.

Looking at the old leader in front of him who was only wearing a thin silk bathrobe, with an unrestrained expression on his face.

Old Tang really couldn't recognize him for a while.

Is this still the old leader who galloped the world and made a fortune?

What has he been through during this time?
