Chapter 446 The princes who are short of money
"Wendong Chang'an, Wudong grassland? What do you think of yourself?" Zhang Nan said with a smile. Who gave this title? It sounds quite nice.
"It's not that I am the one who is in the palace, so I have wanted to get to know Lord Zhang for a long time, but I have no time to meet Lord Zhang." Li Ke rubbed his hands and said, "Li Ke has no time, no chance at all."
For princes like them, Li Er hates them the most is that they are too close to the ministers of the current dynasty, because this will be suspected of being on the sidelines.
When Li Chengqian heard Li Ke’s claim, he frowned and said, “Third brother, Master Zhang is not an ordinary person. I dare not call myself the king in front of him. You need to change your name.”
It’s not that Li Chengqian is provoking, but Li Chengqian feels that even the elder brother of his own dare not call him this king in front of Zhang Nan. Will Li Ke, the younger brother of his own claim to be so self-righteous, make him look too incompetent?
"This..." Li Ke was speechless after hearing Li Chengqian's words.
"It's okay, it's just a title, you don't have to care so much." Zhang Nan waved his hand and said. In fact, Zhang Nan really doesn't care much about this title.
"No, no, no, it's better to change one." Li Chengqian shook his head and said.
"Okay then." Li Ke said helplessly.
"Okay, let's talk about serious business. I'll have nothing else to do when I come to you this time. I just have a small business that wants to do with the King of Wu. I don't know what you think about the King of Wu." Zhang Nan said seriously. After all, Zhang Nan is not a problem of being confused about the name when he comes here.
"What business?" Li Ke's ears stood up as soon as he spoke of money.
Although Li Ke has a noble status, Li Ke's daily expenses are really less than other princes. There is no way, and he is not favored, and he will be relatively less expensive. For example, Li Tai must be short of money. Even Li Er, who is fat, can give him a sedan chair, let alone money.
But Li Ke is different. He lives a tight life. He doesn't have enough money on weekdays and has to rely on Concubine Yang in the harem, namely Li Ke and Li Yan's biological mother to help him.
However, the cost of Concubine Yang is not rich compared to other concubines in the harem.
Everyone says that mother is valuable by her son, but why isn’t the son not by her mother? For example, the child born by Empress Changsun is a very popular person, but other concubines are wrong.
What's more, a child with an awkward identity like Li Ke?
Seeing that Li Ke was interested, Zhang Nan explained his thoughts to Li Ke and explained in a serious way how much money this thing makes.
After hearing this, Li Ke was a little moved, but hesitated. After all, this is not a glorious thing, and it is still a matter of whether Li Er agreed with this matter.
Just as Li Ke was thinking, a voice came from the door.
"Brother, what else do you want? Promise him."
Zhang Nan turned his head and found that a person who looked seventy-sixth-slightly similar to Li Ke came in, but he was younger than Li Ke. From this sentence, Zhang Nan guessed that the person who came in must be Li Yan.
"Why are you here?" Li Ke asked strangely.
"Hey, I originally wanted to play with you, brother, but as soon as I came over, I saw that the prince was also here. I stood at the door and listened. I didn't expect that such a good thing would happen. Brother, you must agree."
"Li Yan, don't you have to salute me when you see me?" Li Chengqian said with a frown.
It can be seen that although Li Yan and Li Ke are the same compatriots, Li Chengqian's attitude towards Li Ke is obviously much better than Li Yan. Although Li Ke will pose a threat to Li Chengqian's position as the prince, Li Chengqian still looks more at Li Ke with some skills.
After Li Chengqian said this, Li Yan pretended to bow to Li Chengqian and said, "I have met the prince." After the ceremony, he ignored whether Li Chengqian listened or not, and turned his head to Li Ke and said, "Brother, please agree to Lord Zhang quickly. What a great opportunity."
"Do you know me?" Zhang Nan pointed to his nose and asked Li Yan.
When Li Yan heard Zhang Nan ask him, he seemed a little excited. He looked like the little fans who saw their idols in later generations, and said respectfully: "Who doesn't know you, Lord Zhang? When you returned from the Great Wind of the Turks, the song "The Legend of the Knights" you wrote at the banquet was simply extraordinary."
Zhang Nan felt a little embarrassed by Li Yan's praise. He waved his hand and said, "I dare not take it or not, I'm just a fool."
"Mr. Zhang, don't be humble. If you don't say anything else, just come back from the time you defeated the Turks. I thought, I would be as cool as you that day. I can talk to my father and grandfather in a very elegant way." Li Yan said here, and then looked fascinated.
"Do you really think so?" Zhang Nan asked strangely. If Li Yan really thinks so, it proves that this guy is not hopeless, he just took the wrong path.
"Yeah." Li Yan wanted to say something, but seeing Li Chengqian was there, Li Yan swallowed the words back, lowered his head and stopped talking.
"If you really think so, I can help you, but this is not within the scope of this discussion. Let's talk about business first, how about King Wu, and what are you thinking about." Zhang Nan said.
When Li Ke, who had always been decisive, showed a hesitant look. Money, Li Ke wanted, Li Er was not angry, Li Ke also wanted, and Li Ke did not want to do both.
"This, can you ask Lord Zhang how much money it costs to build a racecourse you mentioned?" After Li Ke struggled, he still did not resist the temptation of money and decided to ask Zhang Nan about the business.
"Purchase tens of thousands of chunks in the early stage, but it's not enough in the later stage. After all, just building is not enough. Horses, operations, and services must be in place." Zhang Nan said.
"How many?" Li Ke asked with his eyes widened as if he couldn't believe his ears.
"Ten thousand guan? Is it a lot?" In fact, Zhang Nan really has no idea about this tens of thousands of guan. After all, Zhang Nan has become accustomed to using thousands of guan as a unit of measurement, but he still has not taken into account the actual situation in the pockets of these princes.
"Sir Zhang, didn't you say 10,000 yuan? Why did it become tens of thousands of yuan again?" Li Chengqian was a little surprised. After all, this number was beyond his imagination.
"Ten thousand coins? Well, I'm afraid it's not enough. Let's get tens of thousands coins. After all, high risks require high returns. If you don't invest money, how can you make money?" Zhang Nan said.
"This, Lord Zhang, it's a bit too easy for you to say these tens of thousands of yuan. After all, this is tens of thousands of yuan. I have never seen it before. If you say it so casually, why do you feel that these tens of thousands of yuan have become a minor meaning in your place?" Li Yan also scratched his head. Even if they were princes, these tens of thousands of yuan were considered as an astronomical figure for them.
"You can't say it's a slight meaning, it seems like I'm a little crazy, I can only say it's a medium meaning." Zhang Nan said with his ears.
