Chapter 229: Temporary Questions
In that location, you can not only see the gatehouse, but also the gate in the distance.
Now there are soldiers standing inside and outside Pingkangfang, and irrelevant people are forbidden to approach.
Today's banquet was just a banquet for the public, but Li Shimin invited officials from various aristocratic families and officials of the third rank or above in the court. As for joining the franchise, I have never said it publicly.
Not long after the three of them stood in front of the window, the carriages of Samurai and Shan Yunying arrived one after another.
In the original plan, Xu Jingzong, Pei, Ren Er and Ren San were all going to attend. Because of the changes, it would be enough to have Warrior and Shan Yunying. Anyway, Yin Qingfeng didn't care how many people joined.
Not long after, people arrived on horseback or walking. Moreover, these people were Yin Qingfeng's benefactors.
Li Shimin glanced at him and gave the position to Yin Qingfeng and Li Jinan. He found a place to sit down by himself.
Li Jinan moved forward and muttered, "I didn't expect them to be quite active."
Yin Qingfeng was also surprised.
That night it was almost time to break the blame. Why would it be them the first group of people who arrived today? It tastes a bit like a warm-up~~
The four men of Fang Du and Wei spoke happily in front of the gatehouse, and someone entered the gate again. Li Jin'an introduced: "The one on the left is the Minister of the Secretariat Yang Gongren, next to him is the Longxi Duke Mansion to worship Wei Ting... The one on the fat is the Duke of the State of Jiang, Chen Shuda, the one on the right is the Duke of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Xiao Yu, the thin man in the middle is the Minister of Justice Liu Zhenghui..."
Yin Qingfeng chose this location very well. Everyone's facial features and expressions could be seen clearly. So, while like Yin Qingfeng's introduction, Li Jinan commented on their expressions when they saw the gatehouse and couplets, and when they stayed in the corridor to look at the welcome sister.
Rounds of guests entered, and Li Jinan introduced everyone he knew to Yin Qingfeng.
But after not long after introducing it, he couldn't continue. Because he didn't know the next guests. Yin Qingfeng realized that what he was walking in was the clan leaders of the aristocratic families he had originally wanted to plot against.
Since they didn't know each other, Yin Qingfeng simply stopped reading it. Anyway, it would be useless to read it. The chances of dealing with each other may not be great.
When Li Shimin saw Yin Qingfeng and the others leaving the window, he said to Li Jinan: "Jinan, try the taste of this tea."
Li Jinan obediently went to taste the tea. Li Shimin asked Yin Qingfeng: "Apart from what you learned just now, are there any other secrets?"
Yin Qingfeng pointed to the wrapped radiator and said, "The iron sheets for heating are installed in the East Palace. There is nothing else."
"It's really gone?"
Li Shimin asked unwillingly.
Seeing Yin Qingfeng not answering, he said indifferently: "You should hang some calligraphy and paintings here."
Yin Qingfeng thought to himself, I didn’t expect that your taste was not low. I can write one or two hundred poems, but can I hang it out? There are also calligraphy and paintings. If you can’t find calligraphy and paintings by famous artists, it’s better not to hang it out if you have average brushwork and painting skills. Can’t you put a bookshelves?
Don’t think about the ancient shelf. If you can’t get enough of those gadgets, it’s so helpless if anyone can pass by. It would be nice to have a few pots of flowers.
While there was still some time, Yin Qingfeng asked someone to serve some food first. When he got really busy, he would have to go hungry.
Li Shimin is obviously a foodie.
Most of the four dishes and one soup brought into his stomach. However, Li Jinan didn't dare to eat too much even if he wanted to eat. He would stand honestly behind Li Shimin as the background wall. Yin Qingfeng didn't think about eating too much. After the banquet was over, he could still have a good meal with Li Jinan.
Li Shimin wiped his mouth and took another sip of tea. At this time, someone knocked on the door.
Yin Qingfeng got up and went to open the door. The one knocked on the door was Wu Shiyan, and Shan Yunying was behind him.
Yin Qingfeng and they nodded slightly and led them into the house.
After the rituals of Samurai and Shan Yunying, Samurai said, "Your Highness, all the guests are here."
Li Shimin politely replied with a greeting, stood up and prepared to walk out.
Yin Qingfeng stopped him and said, "Uncle, I don't know how long the banquet will take, so I'd better go to the toilet first."
Li Shimin said "Oh" and said, "Then lead the way."
Yin Qingfeng pointed to the screen in the corner, "Just please move there."
Li Shimin looked at Yin Qingfeng in confusion and thought to himself, with a wife here, I can't let me use the drowning bucket.
But after he turned the screen, he found that there was a door there. After pushing it open, he could not find the wooden barrel, but only saw a hole surrounded by ceramic tiles on the cement platform.
Li Shimin leaned his head and looked into the cave entrance, then looked around. He thought to himself, this might be the case, otherwise it would make no sense.
He lifted up his robe, unbuttoned his belt and released it happily.
When he tied his belt, he saw a square porcelain box hanging on the wall above his head, and a rope hanging down on one side of the box.
After tying up his belt, he pulled it curiously.
"Crazy la la la la la la..."
Li Shimin was shocked.
He took a step back guiltily before he figured out what was going on.
"Strange tricks and tricks..."
Li Shimin muttered.
When he turned out of the screen, he heard Yin Qingfeng say there: "We will only count how many people are willing to join today and two months later, and then use the lottery to decide where their franchise store is open, so that some people can take the opportunity to make trouble or complain."
Li Shimin took over the topic, "What if the Lu family of Fanyang or Yan family draws Changsha or Guangzhou?"
The distance from Fanyang to Guangzhou is not too far, just over 4,000 miles. The terrain of plains, basins, rivers, hills, mountains and other terrains along the way are complex. Judging from the traffic conditions at this time, it is impossible to reach it without seventy or eighty days.
According to the Tang Dynasty's laws, it is only 3,000 miles to be sent to the exile and punished.
In the Tang Dynasty, there were three levels of punishment, namely, two thousand miles, two thousand five hundred miles, and three thousand miles. All three levels of life were in service for one year, and there was no additional stick. Those who were in service did not need to be in service, but only were in service, just like the people, waiting for the deadline to expire. Ordinary criminals were in service for one year, and the deadline was generally six years, and those who were not in service but had to be in service for three years. After the deadline was in service, they could return to their original home.
Yin Qingfeng said that he would not make small moves at this franchise meeting, but there were actually some.
Where does a family's binding force on the children of the clan reflect? It's enough to meet! One or two thousand miles away from the ancestral land, and if you don't go back to worship your ancestors for three to five years, can family affection not be indifferent after a long time? If the next generation does not return to the ancestral land often, the sense of identity will be even lower.
Moreover, this time the franchise is divided according to the industry, including Chiweilou, Xianjufang, Wumeifang, Cement, and later, wine, tea, porcelain, etc. If all franchises, a family will have to divide at least seven branches to build franchise stores in seven states.
In other words, as long as they join, a family will be split invisibly.
Of course, this is an extreme possibility.
Those families must adopt rotation management methods, and they can share the benefits equally. But money is the most harmful, and no one is willing to give up the opportunity to make money. In addition, the imperfect accounting methods make it impossible to remember internal strife.
Of course he would not say this to others, and he would not make similar mistakes again.
He pretended to think for a while and said, "If this is the case... I will draw again from the remaining draws that were not drawn. Moreover, there is only one chance. If I am not satisfied, I don't need to join.
This time, we join the franchise, based on the principle of fairness. If everyone says they are not satisfied and ask us to adjust them, what should the others do? Isn’t this time joining the franchise a mess?
So, at today's meeting, we must make these words clear and leave them enough time to consider. If we really draw the so-called unsatisfactory prefectures and counties in two months, we can only blame the heavens for not giving them a chance to make a fortune."
Li Shimin continued to ask, "For example, if the Boling Cui family draws Fan Yang, and the Fan Yang Lu family draws Boling, what should they do if they exchange privately?"
Yin Qingfeng spread his hands and said, "The franchise qualifications are cancelled~~~ They dare not obey, so they ask the current Prince of Tang Dynasty if they agree~~~~" The book I want to read cannot find the latest chapter?
