Zhangsun Wuji smiled bitterly. He was a little regretful now. Why did he jump out to be the peacemaker? Not only did he not get any benefits, but he also got himself into trouble.
Duan Lun had no money to repair the East and West City, and neither did Dai Zhou. He couldn't possibly pay for it, right?
While he was distressed, a figure popped up in his mind.
Feng Zi?
Feng Zi had a big family and business, and there were so many students in the Academy. Maybe he could take on this job. Besides, there was no harm in this job. It could also be a good practice for the students.
Thinking of this, he glanced at the two and said with a smile, "You two don't have to worry. One of you can solve the crisis of the East and West City."
"Who?"
Dai Zhou and Duan Lun said in unison.
Now the two of them were basically grasshoppers tied to the same rope. They were bound together for good or ill. Naturally, they were looking forward to it.
Zhangsun Wuji was very satisfied with their reaction. He smiled and said, "Zhang Feng."
Zhang Feng?
Duan Lun frowned slightly.
He was a little confused. How could Zhang Feng solve the crisis of the East and West City?
But soon, he understood something.
Zhang Feng had the Academy, and there were a lot of students in the Academy. Before entering the Academy, Zhang Feng had promised these students that if they didn't have a good job in the future, they could enter the Ministry of Works or the Ministry of Revenue.
Moreover, this guy had a big family business.
If Zhang Feng was willing to help, then the East and West City could be repaired immediately.
Dai Zhou naturally understood. Zhang Feng didn't dare to say anything else, but he had a lot of money. If he was willing to take out a little money, then the repair of the East and West City could be immediately filled.
But …
How could this guy be willing to take out the money?
He turned to look at Zhangsun Wuji and said with a puzzled face, "Lord Zhangsun, you are right. But how could Zhang Feng be willing to take out the money?"
Duan Lun nodded. He had the same feeling. Wasn't it a fool's dream to ask someone to take out the money for no reason?
Zhangsun Wuji smiled. Although these two old fellows were slick and sly when it came to officialdom, why were they suddenly enlightened at this time? He glanced at the two of them and said mysteriously, "The Academy? Doesn't he have students?"
Duan Lun instantly understood something.
Zhang Feng had promised his students that they could enter the Ministry of Revenue or the Ministry of Works after they graduated.
And now, he was the Minister of Works.
If he were to negotiate with Zhang Feng, wouldn't it be a piece of cake?
He smiled proudly and said, "Thank you, Lord Zhangsun, for your guidance. I will go and find Zhang Feng now."
With that, he strode out of the door.
Dai Zhou?
What Dai Zhou?
They already had Zhang Feng. What use would a mere Dai Zhou have?
Wasn't this guy in charge of the Ministry of Revenue? As long as he had Zhang Feng's money, Dai Zhou's money was not important. Besides, this old man had no money.
While thinking, Duan Lun's steps became more presumptuous.
But Dai Zhou was not happy. His Majesty had already given the order. Why did this guy run away? He could not let this guy take all the benefits alone. He said to Zhangsun Wuji and hurriedly followed Duan Lun's footsteps.
Looking at Duan Lun and Dai Zhou's backs, Zhangsun Wuji felt a little regretful. He felt that he had cheated Feng Zi.
The renovation of the East and West Market was a matter for the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Revenue. How could they drag Feng Zi into this?
But this was not a bad thing. Feng Zi was just giving some money.
He hoped that these two fellows would not expose him when they went to Feng Zi. Otherwise, he would become a sinner.
Feng Zi, the Old Man did this for your own good. Please forgive him.
After comforting himself, Zhangsun Wuji walked to the Imperial Study.
They did not speak along the way. Soon, they arrived at the Imperial Study. Zhangsun Wuji walked straight in.
He saw Li Shimin sitting on the dragon throne and reviewing memorials. He even held a cigarette butt in one hand. He looked very comfortable.
Zhangsun Wuji hurriedly stepped forward and cupped his hands. "Your Majesty."
Li Shimin put down the memorials and glanced at Zhangsun Wuji. He said lightly, "Get up."
Then, he seemed to have thought of something and asked, "How is the matter between Dai Zhou and Duan Lun going?"
Zhangsun Wuji's mouth twitched. He did not know how to answer.
Just now, it was his idea to let these two fellows find Madman. If Erlang knew, would he be angry?
Just as he was thinking, Li Shimin's voice sounded again. "Why aren't you saying anything? Could it be that those two fellows have not solved the problem in the East and West Market? "
"No."
Zhangsun Wuji replied subconsciously. But as soon as he said it, he regretted it. He was worried that if he continued, His Majesty would be unhappy. But he had already said half of what he wanted to say. If he did not continue, he would seem guilty. He could only bite the bullet and continue. "Just now, Dai Zhou and Duan Lun were arguing endlessly. I gave them an idea."
Speaking of this, his face was a little red. "Let them go to Feng Zi."
Go to Feng Zi?
Li Shimin frowned slightly.
This was a matter between the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Works. Why go to Feng Zi?
And this fellow, why did he give Duan Lun and Dai Zhou ideas?
He asked in confusion, "Why did you urge Dai Zhou and Duan Lun to go to Feng Zi?"
