Tang Dynasty: The beginning of the game is to touch the Princess Changle

"Send it to the heads of those noble families? What's the meaning?" Li Shimin asked in confusion.

"There is no special meaning, just treat it as a return gift to them last time." Su Chen smiled and replied.

Last time, each of those heads of the family gave him 6,000 guan, and Su Chen only gave some tea and a jar of wine.

Since they all think that this glass is worth a thousand gold, then be generous and give them more.

Li Shimin nodded slightly and said nothing.

Under Li Shimin's "generous" eyes, the ministers each picked two pieces of glass products they liked.

"Your Majesty, uncles, it's okay. The prince and I will send these glasses and prepare to go back." Su Chen bowed and said.

"Why do you need to send them in person? I will send someone to send them to their house!"

Li Shimin looked at Su Chen and asked, one of them is the prince, and the other is a famous marquis. It seems a bit embarrassing to send gifts to people in person.

"Your Majesty, I just stopped by and have something to talk to them about." Su Chen said indifferently.

"Well, whatever, the labor will be sent to the manor tomorrow."

Li Shimin thought for a while and said.

...

Li Chengqian and the others said goodbye to everyone and left the palace.

"Brother-in-law, which family should we send to first?" Li Chengqian asked after the carriage left the Suzaku Gate.

"Let's go to the Wang family. I'm not familiar with other families. I've been to the Wang family once."

Su Chen chuckled. About three months ago, Su Chen went to the Wang family once to divide the money.

"Zhang Long, go to the Wang family!"

"Yes, Lord!"

After driving for about a quarter of an hour, the carriage stopped at the Wang family's mansion, and Zhang Long ran to the gate of the Wang family.

"Go and inform the head of the Wang family that the Crown Prince and Lord Su are visiting."

Zhang Long said to Xiao Si at the door.

"Yes, yes, I will report to the master right away!" Xiao Si heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had arrived and ran all the way to the mansion, shouting loudly:

"Master, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived..."

At this time, in the hall of the Wang family, Wang Kaishan was discussing the family's income in recent months with his family elders, and suddenly heard Xiao Si shouting outside the door.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has come to the palace?" Wang Kaishan, a goat-bearded man, said to himself in confusion.

"Master, since the Crown Prince has come to our palace, let's go to greet him first, don't lose etiquette!" One of the elders suggested.

Wang Kaishan nodded, stood up and said: "Please, elders, join me to welcome His Royal Highness the Crown Prince outside the palace."

"It should be so!"

Patriarch Wang Kaishan and six elders of the Wang family came to the main gate of the Wang family mansion.

Seeing four carriages parked outside the mansion, the leading carriage was a carriage, and the other three carriages were loaded carriages.

When they saw the colored glaze on the two carriages, they were shocked and puzzled.

Without thinking too much, Wang Kaishan brought the elders of the Wang family to the box carriage, bowed respectfully, and said:

"I am Wang Kaishan, I didn't know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was coming. I failed to welcome you from afar. I hope Your Highness will forgive me!"

Li Chengqian poked his head out of the carriage and said with a smile:

"You are too polite, head of the Wang family!"

After that, he walked out of the carriage. The servants had already prepared the horse stool.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" The other members of the Wang family bowed and saluted.

In the Tang Dynasty, the elderly, such as those over 60 years old, normally do not need to pay homage to the emperor when they see him.

These elderly people are called 'elders' and do not need to salute officials younger than them.

"Meet the elders of the Wang family!" Li Chengqian also bowed respectfully in return.

After everyone greeted each other, Wang Kaishan was about to invite the crown prince Li Chengqian into the mansion when another person came out of the carriage.

Su Chen came out of the carriage with a smile on his face, and stepped on the horse stool to Li Chengqian's side.

"Uh... meet Lord Su!" Wang Kaishan was stunned at first, then bowed and greeted.

"Master Wang, you are polite. Hello, all the elders of the Wang family!"

These people are not unfamiliar with the young man Su Chen. He took away half of their property a few months ago.

"Meet Lord Su!" The six elders of the Wang family bowed and responded.

"Your Highness, Lord Su is here. Please follow me into the mansion to rest for a while!" Wang Kaishan turned sideways to invite him.

Li Chengqian looked at Su Chen with an inquiring look, and Su Chen smiled and said:

"Patriarch Wang, please ask someone to move the things in the two carriages into the mansion." Su Chen pointed to the two carriages with glass and said.

"Okay, Lord Su, I will immediately arrange for the servants to invite His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Lord Su to enter the mansion first!"

Wang Kaishan nodded in agreement and invited the two to enter the mansion again.

Su Chen nodded and asked Li Chengqian to go first. He followed the Crown Prince into the palace.

"By the way, Chief Wang, I would like to trouble you to send someone to invite the other chiefs to your mansion for a chat." Su Chen turned to Wang Kaishan and asked them to invite them all to the Wang family so that they would not have to go from house to house.

"I will ask someone to invite them right away!" WangKaishan knew which other family heads Su Chen was talking about.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Patriarch Wang!" Su Chen bowed his hands and thanked him!

...

Everyone came to the Wang family hall, and everyone in the Wang family unanimously pushed for Su Chen and Li Chengqian to take the main seat.

Li Chengqian and the others declined again and again. It was too inappropriate for two young people to sit in the main seat in front of a group of people with big beards.

"May I ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Lord Su, what are these colored glazes..."

Wang Kaishan, who was sitting in the main seat, looked at the hall full of various colored glaze objects, and finally couldn't help but bowed and asked with curiosity.

"Patriarch Wang, there's no need to be polite, just treat it as a casual chat!" Li Chengqian said with a smile.

"These colored glazes are small gifts from me and Lord Su for the heads of the families. When the other heads of the families are all here, you can choose the ones you like and divide them."

"This... How can this be done?" Wang Kaishan was speechless. This was not one or two pieces but two carriages of colored glaze.

There were at least 30 pieces, and he had never seen such colored glass before. The colored glass sold by merchants in the Western Regions was not half as bright and transparent as this one.

They knew how expensive colored glass was. The former head of the family, Wang Zhen, once bought a piece of colored glass worth 5,800 taels of gold.

One tael of gold was equivalent to 10 taels of silver, equivalent to 58,000 strings of copper coins.

"Your Highness, the gift from the Marquis is too expensive. I dare not give it to you!" Wang Kaishan stood up and bowed.

Su Chen was depressed. It's not for you alone. Why are you so excited?

Not long after, several other heads of the family came in one after another.

After everyone greeted in unison, they were also shocked by the colored glass.

Did they confide the Wang family's assets? The Wang family can't afford so many colored glass!

...

In the imperial study.

"Assistant, that kid said he had something to discuss with those family heads. What do you think they were talking about?"

Li Shimin and others were doing nothing in the imperial study, and Li Shimin suddenly asked.

If Li Shimin knew that Su Chen wanted to popularize cheap books in the Tang Dynasty through the aristocratic families, I wonder what Li Shimin would think.

Because those aristocratic families run salt businesses in various roads in the Tang Dynasty.

It's just right to open a bookstore through their channels. This can save a lot of trouble and facilitate the promotion of books.

After thinking, Changsun Wuji slowly shook his head, "Your Majesty, I can't guess."

Li Shimin looked at Fang Xuanling again, and the latter also shook his head.

"I guess it must be related to fields, iron, and books!" Wei Zheng suddenly said.

"Everyone, tell me, where is that kid now?" Li Shimin's eyes lit up and asked with a smile.

Everyone smiled knowingly!

Su Chen only knew the Wang family mansion!
