Zhenguan Xiaoxian Wang Li Shen Li Shimin

Greed is one of human nature, and everyone has greedy desires. However, people are different. Some people can restrain their greed and be contented; while some people are insatiable and never satisfied!

When the price of the divine beads rose to [-] guan, someone finally chose to be content with what they had.

This man was a small businessman from Chang'an and opened a small workshop in Dongshi. I also make hundreds of dollars every year. When the Tianzhu merchant first sold the divine beads, he bought three beads with three pounds of gold that he had saved for several years at home.

When some people sold it to Prince Ji's Mansion, he did not sell it. Later, the price of the divine beads increased every day, so he kept waiting and watching, but this time he really couldn't resist the temptation.

The beads he bought were only a pound of gold and were worth more than 100 guan. But this time the family and Prince Ji's Mansion offered a price of [-] guan each. How could he not be tempted?

And most importantly, he felt that these three beads were too dangerous to keep at home. A common man is not guilty of carrying a jade, which is different from copper coins.

The few servants in his family could barely cope with thieves, but they could not withstand the aristocratic family and the prince's palace.

It was too hot, so he might as well sell it and make a fortune, so he found the Taiyuan Wang family store in Dongshi and found the shopkeeper, because he was familiar with the shopkeeper's business.

"Don't worry! Our Wang family will not ruin the family's reputation just because of your few thousand dollars. Just follow me to get the money." Shopkeeper Wang saw his concerns and said with disdain.

Finally, one person sold it. If something happens again, will someone sell it to the Wang family in the future? They will not do anything that is too small to make a big difference.

By the time he returned home with the money, word had begun to spread in Dongshi. Someone bought a divine pearl for a pound of gold and sold it to the Wang family for a total of [-] guan, making ten times the profit.

I was envious of this businessman's good luck for a while, and the boutique pavilion also raised the price to [-] yuan.

I heard from Wang Hongfu that Li Shen was furious when he found out that someone had sold to the Wang family but not to him. He said that the money must have been less, so the amount was increased to [-] guan.

When the family saw that Li Shen was defeated, they were naturally very happy, and then set the purchase price to one thousand and five thousand yuan. But after a few days, no one sold, and everyone was waiting to see if it would continue to rise.

On this day, news came out that one of the merchants who had previously purchased the divine beads wanted to sell the ten divine beads in his hand. The location is Yunlai Restaurant of Cui's house in Dongshi. The one with the highest price will get it.

It is reported that his goods traveled by water. The ship sank on the way. A boatload of goods sank to the bottom of the river, and someone ordered his goods. Now that the goods cannot be delivered on time, the buyer demands compensation according to the contract.

He was a swindler who finally lost the money to the buyer, and his family was completely ruined. There is no other choice but to sell the previous magic beads in the hope of making a comeback.

As a businessman, of course he knows how to maximize profits, so this time he is prepared to pay the highest price.

Of course, how can each government go to such a small scene in person? All the people who were in charge were sent there, and in the end the ten divine beads were bought by the Cui family for [-] guan each.

I heard that Wang Hongfu went to Prince Ji's Mansion this time. After returning to the Prince's Mansion, he was scolded bloody by Prince Ji and beaten several times with a stick.

Li Shen said that Prince Ji's Mansion was not short of money, but Wang Hongfu believed that two thousand guan was already a sky-high price and could not be raised any higher. In the end, Li Shen deducted half a year's bonus from Wang Hongfu as punishment.

With this sale. The price of two thousand guan for a divine bead drove Chang'an's upper class into madness.

Many nobles and nobles are considering whether to sell it. In fact, they also thought about what they would do if Jarawa did not come back.

But the current situation is that the Divine Pearl has become a symbol of status and wealth.

Many people wanted to buy the divine beads, especially some distant royal family members. They were far away from Chang'an and got the news relatively late, so they didn't have time to buy.

Many princes and nobles sent people to Chang'an to see if they could acquire some divine beads.

Nowadays, nobles in Chang'an will wear divine beads when traveling, either inlaid with jewelry or hung around their waists.

A noble wedding without divine beads as a betrothal gift would be like marrying without a house in later generations, and would be looked down upon.

And they also thought that even if Galawa didn't come back, it would still have the value it should have. At least there are still so many princes and nobles who want to buy it, and they can also seek good luck and avoid bad luck.

After that, there were several stories in Chang'an about the magic beads that seek good luck and avoid evil. For example, a businessman accidentally fell into the water. He thought he would drown because he couldn't swim, but he didn't expect that he floated up on his own and floated to the shore. .

Or maybe the person who originally wanted to do business suddenly started to feel uncomfortable, and the business was not completed, but later he found out that the person was a liar.

There are all kinds of cases of natural and man-made disasters. The stories are well-founded and there are witnesses and physical evidence to make people believe them.

The summary is just one sentence. With the magic beads, you can turn misfortunes into good fortune.

The divine bead made all the upper class people crazy about it, and wealthy businessmen from all over the country sent people to Chang'an. If you want to get a divine bead, who doesn't want to enjoy the glory in peace.

Driven by Prince Ji's Mansion and the Aristocratic Family, the price of the Divine Pearl began to rise little by little. On the last day of November in the 16th year of Zhenguan, the price reached [-] pieces, and the price was still high.

Li Shen’s study in Prince Ji’s Mansion today

In addition to Li Shen, Li Shen's three principals are all here. Wang Hongfu in business, Wang Xuance in foreign affairs, and Xue Rengui in military affairs.

These people Li Shen trained can all stand alone, and there is no way not to stand alone. Li Shen can only tell you how to do it in the early stage, and the rest is up to you to perform on your own.

This person can do anything when pushed to a certain point, but Li Shen is just an idle person who just hands off the boss.

"Come on, everyone, sit down." Li Shen said with a smile on his face.

After Li Shen asked everyone to sit down, Chunxiang next to him started making tea. Now these maids around Li Shen have improved their tea skills.

"I've worked hard on you three this year. Don't worry, I won't treat you badly. Let's talk about the situation. Lao Wang, you go first." The Lao Wang Li Shen mentioned was Wang Hongfu.

"Your Majesty, our business is very good this year, and we are already preparing the accounts. Especially the drinks and paper..." Wang Hongfu was interrupted by Li Shen when he was about to report.

"Okay, okay, you can report this to Wu Mei. Give her the account after summarizing it, and she will report it to me. My head hurts when I hear it." Li Shen is a lazy person.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to aspire to be an idle prince and start doing things himself because the people below him can't. Now that a pattern has been formed, of course he will be lazy.

His head hurts when he hears these things. Now Wu Mei is his right-hand assistant. Wu Mei is very talented in business management. Each time, Wu Mei summarized and reported to him.
