    "Go away, go away" Li Heng shouted angrily when he heard his daughter knocking on the door again.  Although this depressing career as a prince has made him develop a tolerant temperament, his joy and anger are rarely expressed in color.  But today I still got a little out of control.  Li Lan was silent for a moment, then continued to knock on the door: "Father, my daughter heard some rumors yesterday." The eunuch maid had been driven away by Li Lan long ago, so she was the only one in front of the entire palace.  After Li Heng drank a few words, he also realized that something was wrong. He had lost his temper too much. If the news reached his father's ears, he would be more suspicious.  He calmed down, got up from the couch, and opened the door himself: "Come in." Li Lan saluted Li Heng and entered the door. She turned around and wanted to close the door, but Li Heng waved his hand and said, "No need to close it." After all,  After getting out of the panic, Li Heng began to regain his calmness and forbearance.  The door was open. Firstly, there would be people peeping, and there was nothing to say. Secondly, it would be easier for him to observe whether there was any movement outside.  "Daughter, in the past few days, I heard that the imperial court is choosing a princess to marry." "Huh?" "I want to choose a princess to marry Xi and Khitan Khan." "What is going on?" Li Heng's thoughts have been completely occupied recently.  He was troubled by the case of Wei Jian, so he did not pay attention to this matter. Hearing this, he frowned. What does choosing a princess to marry him have to do with it? Why did his daughter eagerly come to report it?  Looking at his daughter, Li Heng suddenly felt a little soft in his heart.  Although this daughter lost her biological mother at the age of three, Concubine Wei was well-educated and knew how to care about others. Especially in her, she had a kind of family affection that was rare in the royal family.  She is also very smart. If she suddenly mentioned marriage, there must be a reason.  Maybe he should listen to her opinion Thinking of this, Li Heng hated Ye Chang even more. If it weren't for that guy, why would he need to ask a little girl who was only fourteen or fifteen years old? "These days, twenty  Jiu Gu visited various princess mansions and princes' mansions, and her daughter accompanied her." Li Lan said, "On her side, my daughter accidentally learned something" No matter how Li Heng and his daughter discussed it.  , Ye Chang finally escaped and rushed to Chang'an.  At this time, the climate is warm, and the growth line of citrus is a little further north than in other generations, so the winter is not too cold.  Ye Chang and others hurriedly and slowly arrived in Luoyang on the twelfth day of the first lunar month.  It is unrealistic to rush back to practice martial arts within three days, so not only did he not go home for the New Year, but he also had to spend the Lantern Festival in Luoyang City.  "Ye Langjun has arrived." As soon as he arrived outside Luoyang City, more than ten people greeted him from afar, with happy smiles on everyone's faces.  Ye Chang glanced at it and immediately dismounted: "Why are you here?" "Hearing that Ye Langjun was coming back, everyone said that the people who are on vacation should wait here." The leader, an old man in his fifties, fell down and bowed down.  Di: "Ye Langjun saved your life, how could you not come out to greet me?" "Old Master Qin can't do this." Ye Chang stepped forward and helped him up: "I just tried my best to really save you.  The one who is waiting for his life is you." "Ye Langjun is so humble." "This Mr. Qin and others are the victims of the flood near Luoyang.  In the winter of the second year of Tianbao, they were on the verge of despair, but Ye Chang came to Luoyang and gave them a way to survive with the method of "relief through work".  Not only that, if they were just given a way to survive, they would not be so grateful that they would come several miles outside the city to greet them. More importantly, Ye Chang gave them hope. Even if the land in their hometown was annexed by the powerful gentry,  But you can still hope to make a fortune.  Ye Chang selected 200 of them to go to Princess Mengzhou's Zhuangzi last year. The income of these 200 people last year was more than 30 yuan, which was almost double the previous income when the family had farmland.  This is a net income, and Ye Chang pays for food, drink, and accommodation. The food and clothing are not bad, and it can even be said that they are more decent than they used to be in the countryside.  Even those who stay in Luoyang City are also on the construction site, with a net income ranging from one to two dollars a month.  If he does well, his income can even reach eight thousand yuan a month. They naturally know that Ye Chang earns more, but those wealthy gentry and powerful people also earn more, but have they ever seen them share their profits and have no kinship with each other?  There¡¯s no one selling herself?  " Mr. Qin, how were you in the old year? Are there any problems with food and clothing?" Ye Chang asked Mr. Qin as he walked, his attitude was very kind.  "Thanks to Mr. Ye, my two boys and I made a total of sixty dollars last year. Manager Jia treats everyone well. Look at my clothes. I'm pretty good at it. I'm a young man.  I have lived for more than fifty years, and I have never worn such good clothes before" "Have you ever wanted to go back to your hometown?" "I think the ancestral graves are there, but I can't go back, so my heart is dead.  " Mr. Qin sighed and said, "I just ask our ancestors not to blame us unfilial descendants" "Ancestors.Naturally, the ancestors will not blame you. You are so good at it. In the future, when you get rich, you will find a place to settle down and move your graves and souls.  "Ye Chang said with a smile: "If you can open the branches and spread the leaves to illuminate the lintel, our ancestors will only be happy, why will they be sad?  Guarding the family property passed down by the ancestors, losing money every day and sitting on the mountain, even if you live next to the tomb of your ancestors, how can your ancestors praise you?  "This is the truth, but it may not be useful to tell it from other people's mouths. But when Ye Chang said it, Old Qin nodded: "Is this the truth? Ye Langjun can explain it clearly. Old man, I am just stupid.  Okay But, Ye Langjun, where do you think the old man should go to find a place to settle down in the future?  I wonder if Ye Langjun¡¯s Xiuwu side is easy to move to and settle down?  Ye Chang's eyes flashed: "Cultivation of martial arts is naturally difficult. The entire Central Plains is now overcrowded. When I was young, you could see mountains, forests and trees everywhere. Now, the Central Plains are full of people. Qin  The old man nodded again and again. Normally he didn't think about it carefully, but now that he thought about it carefully, it was indeed the case.  When he was a child, more than forty years ago, Luoyang was surrounded by mountains and forests.  Nowadays, most of the mountain forests have been cut down, the flat land has been cleared to grow grain and build villages, and the mountainous areas have been terraced with fruit trees.  "If this continues, in less than a hundred years, there will not only be less mud in the Yellow River." Ye Chang sighed again: "There are more and more mud in the Yellow River. The reason is that the trees are cut down and the grass is uprooted.  The rain washed the soil from the mountains into the Yellow River. "Old man Qin nodded again, but now it's out of habit.  Ye Chang also smiled. There was no use telling him about this matter. He didn't understand.  Only after experiencing another life in which the Yellow River stopped flowing for more than a hundred days a year and the river bed was higher than the river bank can we understand that if the Guanzhong area continues to be deforestation, the mother river of the Yellow River will become an unbridled wild dragon.  "If there is a place with rich water and soil, a climate slightly colder than ours, and further away from Chang'an and Luoyang, would you be willing to move there and settle there?" Ye Chang asked.  "How can you not want to go when there is a place like this?" Old Qin pondered for a while: "Are there any fields?" "There are enough fields to manage." "Is it difficult to naturalize?" "Is it difficult to naturalize? Is it easy? Is it easy? It's easy.  As long as you are willing, you can be naturalized, which is not easy. If you want to get a field, you need a son or a girl from your family to serve as a corvee. However, the corvee service there is different from that here. There are wages for the corvee service. "  "Is that true? There is such a good place." "There is not now, but there will be in the future." Ye Chang laughed deeply.  They were talking speculatively, and Nan Jiyun sighed sadly from behind, Shanzhi said in surprise: "What's wrong?" "Someone is going to be deceived again." "What?" "Isn't Ye Langjun just kidnapping?" Nan  Jiyun laughed happily.  "You were kidnapped like this, right?" "Indeed, monk, how can you be so good? I have learned martial arts, and I was originally selling goods to people with knowledge, but you, monk, were kidnapped after a few meals of wine and meat.  "" "The monk has a keen eye and has long seen that Ye Langjun is extraordinary. If it were not for the monk, the Taoist sect will flourish in the future, and my Buddhism will be the same. With the monk, the Taoist sect will flourish, and my Buddhism will be able to follow him to pick up some soup."  ." Shanzhi grinned.  The monk's words made Nan Jiyun stunned. He didn't expect that this reckless monk would have such a scheme. "But Ye Langjun usually looks down on Buddhism. Although some people said at first that he had the Skanda point.  Transformation, but he himself has always denied it. Others say that he has Mengxian, but he does not deny it But, monk, do you really think that the Taoism will flourish because of Ye Langjun? "That's natural."  "This ability?" "Within thirty years, he will become a prime minister." The two of them whispered, but Ye Chang could not hear them. Accompanied by Mr. Qin and other people who greeted him, they entered Luoyang City.  Zhichang¡¯s destination is the Grand View Garden. Half a year has passed since he went to Longyou. The basic framework of the Grand View Garden has been completed, and the rest are just some repairs.  It was quite lively to meet Jia Maoer, Li Zhi and others in the Grand View Garden. The guest in yellow shirt also stayed here at this time. Ye Chang saw him and patted his arm: "Brother Han, are you here?"  "Bian Zhi, I have something to discuss with you." "I also have something to talk to Brother Ye" Huang Shanke looked a little strange.  "Oh, Brother Han, just tell me what's going on." "When I get to Luoyang, I will know your methods, Brother Ye." Huang Shike thought for a while: "Especially the resettlement of the victims Shiyilang, I am a straightforward person, look at me  Where else can I help? " Ye Chang suddenly felt happy and settled the victims. Some people thought that he was just a good person, but they didn't know that the living signs could not only bring him two  With more than a thousand loyal subordinates, they can also attract people like Nan Jiyun and Huang Shike who still have some chivalrous hearts  These people were originally at the bottom of the Tang Dynasty, but it does not mean that they have no talent.  Xiang Nan Jiyun's archery skills are by no means inferior to Li Sheng's. It is only because he has no chance to show off his talents that he has been wasting his time until now.  Huang Shike was different from Nan Jiyun. Huang Shike was young and more impulsive. Therefore, when he saw the situation of the victims in Luoyang and heard about Nan Jiyun's achievements in killing Quanrong in Longyou in Chang'an, he was immediately moved and wanted to  I want to follow Ye Chang and find a career.  "Brother Han is a refreshing person, and I am not in vain. I can rely on Brother Han's wisdom and courage." Ye Chang glanced at the guest in yellow: "Brother Han has always respected the bearded man the most, and I will definitely let Brother Han do something no less than good."  When the Qiu bearded guest's achievements came out, the yellow-shirted guest was overjoyed. He also got the news about Li Bai and Du Fu. Li Bai was originally waiting for Ye Chang and Gao Shi in Luoyang City, but because Ye Chang was detained, Gao Shi passed by Luoyang to meet him.  The meeting, together with Du Fu, who had failed as a Jinshi, made them happy to meet each other. After Gao Shi left Luoyang, Li Bai and Du Fu also went home separately, but they made an appointment to go to Qilu together. But there was also bad news.  , After He Zhizhang returned to his hometown, he passed away last year. Although it took some time for the news to reach Luoyang, Ye Chang only found out about it now. Ye Chang felt a little guilty about He Zhizhang, but that was all he could do. He wrote it down secretly.  If there is an opportunity in the future, I will definitely help the descendants of He Zhizhang. Jia Maoer led Ye Chang around the Grand View Garden. The entire Grand View Garden project was 80% completed. Many places were open for business, but there were not many shops inside.  They are mainly stores opened by Ye Chang himself. ¡°Shiyi Lang, it seems that our comprehensive market is not as good as expected.  "Jia Mao'er said with a worried look on his face: "You can only earn a thousand dollars a year. In such a big place I don't know how many years it will take to earn back the money you invested.  " In order to build the Grand View Garden, Ye Chang not only invested in building the garden itself, but also gave Luoyang Mansion more than 100,000 guan. The annual income is only 1,000 guan, and the cost will not be recovered in a hundred years. Ye Chang did not panic, and said with a smile  : ¡°Nowadays, we only rely on the book market to make money, so the income is naturally limited.  Brother Jia, don¡¯t worry, a large amount of goods will be shipped in the next half year. By then, we will be the exclusive company in Luoyang City, so we are not afraid of no customers.¡± Ye Chang knew very well why the business in Grand View Garden was deserted. Except for the book market, no one can compete for the time being.  In addition, other shops, whether selling groceries from the north or the south or selling customs from the east or west, have already had competitors in Luoyang City. If you want to truly build Grand View Garden, you must rely on unique products. As for unique products, they will soon be available.  It will be on the market. ¡°It¡¯s good to have Shi Yilang say that we will basically complete it in the second half of the year.  " "Where is Mrs. Li, how is the situation here?  " "The current situation of Yunde Tower is not enough to maintain it. Although Lang Jun is full of ingenious ideas, those artists still need to be trained and recruited, and the entire Grand View Garden is not popular, so naturally not many people come to Yunde Tower.  "Li Zhi asked himself when he heard this, and said calmly: "Lang Jun, just rest assured, he will eventually get on the right track before the second half of the year. "It was not something that was achieved overnight." Ye Chang was not surprised by this progress. He himself  Not in Luoyang, it is already amazing to be able to do this.  Looking at everyone, he pondered for a while, and then said: "Ms. Li, we have some men's things to say, please step aside." Li Zhi was stunned. She looked up at Ye Chang and saw  Ye Chang insisted, and immediately stood up and saluted: "I'll go right now" "Mr. Lang doesn't seem to be too polite to her" After she left, Jia Maoer was a little worried.  "This can be regarded as a test for her." Ye Chang looked at the people left behind: "Brother Jia, you and I have been friends for several years and have done many great things together. Needless to say. Master Shanzhi,  Nan Ba ??and I lived and died together in front of the battle. Brother Han committed murder for me just for a promise. We all have a life-long friendship with Madam Li, but she is not at this level with us now. What will happen next.  She can¡¯t listen to what I say.¡± Everyone looked stern.
