Chapter 10: The Wool Comes to the Dog
The dignified Emperor of Tang Dynasty was pointed at the nose and said he was ignorant.
Li Er was so angry!
KAKAKAKA.
His fist was pinched and the murderous intent burst out in an instant.
Chen Chu didn't know it at all.
He stared at Li Er's fist curiously and said in surprise: "Oh, Lao Li, you have joint problems!"
joint?
Li Er was stunned.
He had never heard of this.
Seeing Li Er confused, Chen Chu smiled and said, "Look, you are ignorant again! I ask you, do you feel sore or swelling when your fist sounds?"
Li Er nodded subconsciously.
When he was angry, he clenched his fist and his fist would clatter.
Li Er has been proud of his many years.
Because the louder the fist sounds, the greater the anger he gets.
The civil and military ministers and close servants were frightened and trembled when they heard the sound of his fists.
The only drawback is that every time the sound is, it will be sore and swelling, which sometimes lasts for several days and sometimes is unbearable.
Li Er has never told anyone about this shortcoming.
Chen Chu actually knows?
Chen Chu said again: "This is a disease and needs to be cured!"
Li Er said unhappily: "Nonsense, my fist has been ringing for many years, but it doesn't hurt. You are exaggerating."
Chen Chu said indifferently: "If you love or not, don't regret it when you are old!"
Li Er curled his lips.
He believed it if he had a fist sounded a little uncomfortable.
But he would never believe it if he said it was a disease.
Li Er said, "You should tell me the truth about the jade pendant. If you can't explain it clearly, I can't spare you."
Chen Chu sat carelessly on the Hu chair, took a sip of tea, and said, "Old Li, I will tell you a story before reasoning."
"you say!"
Chen Chu said: "A long time ago, there was a simple town on the border of the Tang Dynasty. People rested at sunrise and sunset. They did not interact with each other except meeting and greeting each other. What would this town look like?"
Li Er thought for a while and said decisively: "It must be lifeless."
Bang.
Chen Chu snapped his fingers: "Yes, this town is lifeless. A young man picked up a gold coin, but found that he couldn't spend it."
Li Er said: "It's indeed a bit weird."
Chen Chu glanced at him and said, "Until one day, a prostitute came to the town."
"The youth bought a prostitute with gold coins for one night."
"The prostitute rented a house from Lao Sun with gold coins."
"Lao Sun bought a horse from Lao Chen with gold coins and started freight."
"Because the prostitute wanted to have a meal, Lao Chen rented a shop from Lao Li with gold coins, bought ingredients, and opened a restaurant."
"Old Li gave the gold coins to the prostitute and lingered all night."
"The gold coins returned to the prostitute, and the prostitute went to Lao Chen's restaurant for dinner and gave the gold coins to Lao Chen."
"Old Chen used gold coins to buy new ingredients..."
"Look, the originally dead town was completely alive because of a gold coin, with brothels, hotels, freight, and food shops!"
Li Er's eyes widened.
The whole person was in extreme shock.
Chen Chu’s story is very simple!
But it is clear and impeccable.
After a while, Li Er came to his senses: "Isn't it because of a prostitute?"
puff!
Chen Chu spewed out a mouthful of tea and said with a laugh and cry: "Old Li, you are old and full of prostitutes, but you can't think about it carefully. Can you just have prostitutes and no gold coins? Isn't that a waste of time?"
Li Er nodded: "It seems like this, but what does this have to do with the jade pendant?"
Chen Chu Xunshi said, "When we talk about jade pendants, this is the same thing... You gave it to me, and I sold it for 3,000 guan. These 3,000 guan is enough for hundreds of people from Qingfeng Village to live for a year. The merchant who bought the jade pendants could sell it to other merchants for 5,000 guan. He earned 2,000 guan to support his family. This model can continue until in the end, someone bought it at a high price and gave it to you, and the jade pendant was back in your hands!"
"The original situation was that the jade pendant was in your hands, but hundreds of people in Qingfeng Village would starve to death, and the businessman's business would go bankrupt."
"The current situation is that the jade pendant is still in your hands, but the people in Qingfeng Village can live well, and those merchants are rich. This jade pendant will take a turn for at least 500 people to survive."
"Old Li, are you still going to blame me?"
Li Er was stunned again.
That's right!
Chen Chu said nothing wrong!
But, something is wrong.
His eyes suddenly lit up: "No, five hundred people survived, but my friend lost more than 10,000 yuan."
Chen Chu had expected it and said confidently: "Does your friend lack more than 10,000 yuan?"
Li Er shook his head.
"That's all, the wool comes from the dog," Chen Chu said.
Wool comes from dogs?
Li Er was stunned again.
He analyzed it slightly.
Isn’t wool the various benefits brought by this jade pendant?
And Cheng Yaojin is that dog.
It was equivalent to Cheng Yaojin spending more than 10,000 guan to support a large number of people.
He heard Chen Chu say again: "Now, although the Tang Dynasty has entered a prosperous era, the only ones that are rich are princes and nobles, but only aristocratic families, and the people at the bottom are still poor. The reason is that resources are not circulated... The great families of the aristocratic families hoarded Kaiyuan Tongbao and land, but did not take it out to use it. This has led to less and less land and money in the hands of ordinary people. In the end, the rich and poor class is getting bigger and bigger, the poorer the poorer, the richer the richer. I am afraid that the Tang Dynasty will become lifeless again and there are many contradictions."
moment.
Li Er's face suddenly became gloomy.
It’s not that he thought Chen Chu was talking nonsense.
On the contrary, he thought what Chen Chu said was very reasonable.
Moreover, the world was finally settled, and the aristocratic families had begun to merge land, hoard grain, and hoard Kaiyuan Tongbao.
If this continues, the consequences will be unimaginable.
But Li Er is still not sure whether it will be as Chen Chu said.
He was worried and said, "Little brother, it seems that I misunderstood you. I still have something to do, so let's take a step first."
As he said that, Li Er turned around and left.
When he walked to the threshold, Chen Chu grabbed a wooden stick and asked, "I'm leaving now? Are you not going to steal potatoes? That's a magical thing with a yield of thousands of pounds per mu!"
Li Er slipped under his feet and almost fell down.
Good boy!
You are planning to let me snatch it, knock me out and extort me again, right?
...
Li Er walked to the woods.
Crazy.
Cheng Chumo and others stood up together, each holding a knife and axe in their hands.
Cheng Chumo asked, "Your Majesty, I will take someone here and tear Chen Chu to pieces..."
It turned out that before Li Er came, he had specially told Cheng Chumo to prepare manpower and weapons and kill Chen Chu later.
Chen Chu offended him again and again, but he could no longer bear it. Even if he didn't want potatoes, he would kill Chen Chu.
Cheng Chumo was about to come with him, but Li Er stopped him: "Stop it, let him live for a few more days..."
As he said that, Li Erfeng left.
Cheng Chumo scratched his head: "What's wrong with Your Majesty recently? Isn't it just killing Bai Ding? Why did it happen again and again?"
