After having three sons all of a sudden, Li Jia suddenly felt complete.

The imperial court was full of congratulations, and everyone was happy that an heir to the Tang Dynasty was born, but it was a pity that he was not a legitimate son, but a concubine.

However, we should not take it lightly. In this era, it is very easy for children to die before the age of three. They cannot be given a big name. They can only be called "older brother" and be officially given a name after they reach adulthood.

According to the custom, the concubines in the harem have their own reward, and the emperor does not need to worry about it. As for the status after giving birth to a child, they will naturally be promoted one level, and the concubine will be the concubine.

The rest of the rewards were not counted in money. This time when his son was born, Li Jia did not receive a cent as a congratulatory gift, but instead scattered several hundred guan. If the treatment and rewards of the concubines were taken into account, thousands of guan would have been inevitable.

It's not that heartbreaking, but I just think that the rules of this royal family are really big. There are rules for everything you drink and eat. They spend hundreds of guan every day, which is roughly 100,000 guan a year. If you add some rewards, it will be even more touching.

human heart.

Fortunately, the emperor has a good way of using money. Every year, the world's bank alone can earn tens of thousands of dollars just from exchanging money. Now that money bills have been issued, the exchange rate is also one thousandth as usual.

, although it’s not much, but over time, the more you exchange, it’s still a big sum.

What's more, the royal brand - Yong cloth, was already famous in Lingnan when it was in Yongzhou, and now it is even more popular. In the entire Chengtian Mansion, there are more than ten textile factories affiliated to Shaofujian, employing about 100 female workers.

More than 30,000 people can produce more than 100,000 pieces of silk, linen, etc. every month. Whether it is rewarded to hundreds of officials or sold, the net profit is more than 10,000 yuan.

The gold mines in Kyushu Island, the sheep and horses in Jeju Island, and the furs in the Blackwater Protectorate. These industries have great potential, with annual profits exceeding 100,000 guan.

Not to mention, the Salt Industry of the Customs Department, Shipping Department, etc. were placed in the inner treasury, and were collected by the Yamen of the Transshipment Envoy, with an annual income of one million dollars.

As a result, the profit of the farm is the thinnest, but it is better than stability. It has more than 100,000 acres of land and thousands of hectares, distributed in various places, and produces four to five million dan of grain every year. Most of it is stored in case of unexpected events.

In this troubled world, food is more precious than gold.

For example, when Li Jiabei entered Jiangling City before, the veteran general Murong Yanzhao sent troops and generals to prepare for a fight. However, the memorial was sent to the court, but was left undisclosed and nothing was done.

Does Zhao Kuangyin really not care about this matter? No, it is because the Northern Song Dynasty court did not have enough food. In addition, in Huainan, which relied on the granary, half of the people were gone. Coupled with the military chaos that lasted for a year, the Northern Song Dynasty had been completely destroyed.

Grain consumption was so complete that the price of grain in Zhengdan and Bianliang, Tokyo, doubled from previous years.

Folks even began to talk about remembering Sejong Guo Rong. Zhao Kuangyin was panicked for a while, and the imperial army was replaced more frequently.

After being surprised by the child for more than ten days, Li Jia finally consumed most of it and began to get used to it.

However, the palace is indeed boring. He has been here for several months since he returned last year. Li Jia is quite bored. The greatest pleasure of staying in the palace is making people.

No wonder those emperors liked to expand their palaces, recruit concubines, and stay in one place for a long time. Sure enough, they needed to find some freshness. Even the emperor could not bear the same old life.

What's more, Li Jia, who has been in the outfield for half a year, naturally cannot bear it.

So, on March 17, the second year of Shenwu, Li Jia left the imperial city and came to the market with the eunuch Tian Zhong, Yuan Congjun commander Zhang Huzi, and some personal guards.

For the two people who were close to the emperor, this was already a common occurrence and they didn't take it seriously. Instead, they arranged it in an orderly manner, which made Li Jia feel at ease when he went to visit incognito.

The city of Guangzhou is a lively scene, with blurred market boundaries. Shops, blacksmith shops, brick and tile shops, pawn shops, restaurants, taverns and teahouses are everywhere.

The emperor wandered around happily, walking into the shops on the street from time to time to observe.

Walking in the market outside, the emperor's young face was full of energy, like a young man who had just arrived in the capital. His handsome appearance made the young ladies on the roadside look at him again and again with shame.

In this way, Li Jia is not blind, so he naturally understands it clearly. He enjoys it, nodding and smiling from time to time, swinging his folding fan, quite like a gentleman.

"If we had taken an ox cart into the market during the Wei and Jin Dynasties, those little ladies' sachets would have been difficult to load in one cart!" Li Jia was smug and said with a smile:

"I'm afraid that even Wei Jie will be suppressed by Lang Jun and me!"

At first glance, Tian Zhong was just smiling and flattering, while Zhang Huzi, a rough guy who knew a lot of allusions, just smiled naively. Li Jia was instantly laughed at by these two people: "Yes, your level is here, you can play the piano to an ox!"

Women in the Wei and Jin Dynasties were quite bold and crazy. In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, when they saw a handsome man, they would say hello and throw sachets just casually. Wei Jie, one of the four beautiful men, came to Jiankang in an ox cart. Because of the huge crowd of women watching, the oxen

The car was full of sachets of women's confessions, the roads were crowded, and fans were as crazy as chasing stars nowadays. Wei Jie was born with a weak body and couldn't bear it, so he died, and the phrase "watch and kill Wei Jie" came into being.

Chatting with people who don't understand is really asking for trouble.

Seeing the sun rising above the head, the young man who was walking forward stopped and looked up at the signboard of a restaurant on the street called 'Fengxi Restaurant'. The restaurant was tall and one of the few in Guangzhou, with three in total.

On the first floor, standing at the door and smelling the aroma of food and wine wafting out from inside, the emperor felt even more hungry, so he turned around and said, "Tian Zhong, go in and ask, are there any seats left?"

Soon, he came back and said: "Lang Jun, there is still a private room!"

"No, just find a seat by the window. You can't see this kind of business kindness on weekdays." Li Jia shook his head, held a paper fan, and walked in with a shake of his head.

Climbing the stairs, there was a lot of noise and frolics on the first and second floors, clinking glasses and shouting for drinks, which was so loud that no one could hear anything.

Li Jia was quite happy. He sat by the window and looked at the street. Various vendors were shouting, eating, drinking and having fun. They had everything, full of life.

The rules in the palace are strict. Although they cannot control the emperor, they can control others in a strict manner. For a short time, they may feel a little conquering, but after a long time, they will become bored.

"Hey, the little lady in Chunxiang Tower is doing very well. The madam has trained her well, and her voice is beautiful, just like a bird singing. I stopped, but unexpectedly I started to sing again!"

"That day at the temple fair, there was a little craftswoman who was very pretty. Hey, her legs are strong..."

"Mr. Lang, it's very noisy here! Why don't you go to the private room!" Zhang Huzi must have been used to it, but Tian Zhong couldn't hear such dirty words and said.

"It's okay, let's listen!" Li Jia shook his head, this kind of dirty talk is nothing, future generations will be compared to this world!

However, he said that there was a table here with a man with his breasts exposed. He looked quite ugly, but he looked honest. He drank a glass of wine and said, "Have you heard? Not long ago, Judge Zhou of Nanhai County tried a man.

A difficult case, truly remarkable!”

Nanhai County is one of the two counties in Guangzhou.

"How do you say it?" he asked jokingly.

"Hey, there was a businessman in Nanhai County who went to Chu State every day to do business. He accumulated a lot of money. When he got older, he took it back to Nanhai to buy land and left it all to his younger brother.

Li, who expected to come back in half a month, thinking that he could spend his old age in peace, unexpectedly, his younger brother completely denied the matter, and all the land deeds were written in his younger brother's name."

"Bah, you are no longer a human being——"

"Son of a bitch!"

"Son of a bitch, Aye wants to chop him up!"

Although the listeners could not help, they were the kings of words. They hurriedly scolded the general. They were full of righteous indignation and felt that they would go through fire and water without hesitation.
