The business of the Lin family and the Qian family were closely related in many ways.
According to Qian Duoduo, the reason why he came to Liuzhou was that his father, the God of Wealth Qian, felt that Miss Lin was very good at doing business and asked him to come over to learn some things.
Qian Duoduo was the son of the God of Wealth Qian, but he did not inherit the God of Wealth Qian's ability to make money. Instead, he figured out a lot of his ability to spend money.
Moreover, he was a very strange person. When he was generous, he would spend a lot of money without batting an eyelid.
When he was stingy, he would remember a copper coin for five years, and he still remembered Jiu Qian … Nine out, thirteen back.
Qian Duoduo and Lin Wanru talked for a while. When he walked over again, he suddenly stopped in front of Li Yi and bowed to him.
Li Yi said in surprise, "What are you doing?"
Qian Duoduo looked up at him and said seriously, "Brother Li has given me a new life. I deserve this bow."
Fang and Lin Yong looked at him and then at Li Yi in surprise.
Fang didn't know Qian Duoduo, but Lin Yong knew him a long time ago. However, he didn't know when the Li Brothers had given him a new life.
Li Yi waved his hand and said, "It's a small matter. You don't have to be so polite."
"It's a small matter for Brother Li, but it's a big matter for me." Qian Duoduo shook his head and said solemnly, "Brother Li once told me that money should be spent wisely. In the past, I spent a thousand taels of silver, but I couldn't win the smile of the prostitutes in the brothel. Instead, I was laughed at by those poor scholars. Those years, I was really bitter …"
Qian Duoduo's tone was sad. Speaking to this point, his tone changed and he said, "Later, after Brother Li's advice, every time I went to a place, I spent a hundred taels of silver, and I could subdue all the idlers in the city. Whoever laughed at me, I let them beat them up. I spent another hundred taels of silver, and I could spread the news that they visited prostitutes without paying. I spent another hundred taels of silver, and the whole city knew that they didn't pay for prostitution. I spent another …"
"Stop!"
Seeing Qian Duoduo's spittle flying, Fang and Lin Yong's eyes began to change. Even Lin Wanru came over, Li Yi hurriedly reached out and stopped him from continuing.
If he allowed him to continue slandering him out of thin air, his lifelong reputation would be ruined in a day.
At that time, how Old Fang and Lin Yong would think of him wasn't important.
How did Miss Lin see him? Her impression of him had worsened. What if he couldn't make a move against her in the future?
Qian Duoduo didn't continue. He bowed to him again and said, "I've always wanted to say thank you to Brother Li in person. I've finally waited for you today."
To Li, Li, Li, Li, of Li, Li, Li, Li, Qiu,
But to him, Qian Duoduo, this was the light that tore open the darkness, and it established a new direction for his life. It allowed him to be reborn, to hold his head high, and to become a new man …
Kindness was akin to giving him a new lease on life!
Lin Wanru looked at Li Yi with interest, as if she was getting to know him all over again. Li Yi took a deep breath, looked at Qian Duoduo, and changed the topic. "You said you just came from the capital. How is the situation in the capital? Is the Third Prince doing well?"
"The Third Prince has always been good." Qian Duoduo nodded and said, "Regarding how to deal with those sanctimonious so-called scholars, I have accumulated some experience in the past few years and have many new ideas. Brother Li, do you want to hear them?"
"No, I'm not interested." Li Yi shook his head and said, "Why don't you tell me the situation in the capital in detail? How is the fight between the Third Prince and the First Prince going?"
Qian Duoduo was very regretful. He was very experienced in dealing with those sanctimonious beasts in human clothing. Brother Li was clearly his bosom friend, his guide, but he had to say these words that went against his heart. He could only sigh and say, "The Third Prince and the First Prince should be evenly matched right now …"
…
The information that Li Yi got from others was naturally not as good as Zhao Yi's.
Although the God of Wealth Qian was not an official, Zhao Yi had countless counselors around him, but no one could replace the God of Wealth Qian.
He was Zhao Yi's God of Wealth. Whether it was governing the country or rebelling, he could have no one by his side, but it was impossible for him to have no God of Wealth Qian.
Even Li Yi admired Zhao Yi's accuracy in judging people. Not only was he accurate, but he was also good at using people. He could use his charisma to make those people loyal to him. Since ancient times, those who achieved great things all had this quality.
Although Li Xuan was the emperor of the Jing Kingdom and the master of the most powerful country in the surrounding area, he was far behind Zhao Yi in terms of personal ability, governing the country, and using people.
However, Li Xuan also had his charisma. His charisma was foolishness. This kind of foolishness was fully revealed when he broke into the King of Shu's Mansion alone and slapped Qin Yu in the face, and when he violently beat up the King of Shu with him in front of the civil and military officials.
However, a fool had a fool's luck. Therefore, his life was smooth and he easily reached the peak of his life.
Compared to a smart person like Zhao Yi, Li Yi preferred the foolish Li Xuan.
Zhao Yi was indeed very capable. This ability was shown when he was young. He managed the remote Feng Province into a prosperous place second only to the capital of the Qi Kingdom. He had countless talents around him. Although he was not the Crown Prince, he had won the support of more than half of the officials in the imperial court. He could compete with the Crown Prince for the supreme position …
It could be said that the current him was the most dazzling star in the night sky of the Qi Kingdom.
Most of the younger officials in the imperial court and officialdom of the Qi Kingdom had been recruited by Zhao Yi. Due to several incidents, the First Prince had lost the support of the people. However, the Crown Prince was still the Crown Prince. He still gathered a group of conservative old officials around him. Although the number of people was smaller, each of them held a high position and held great power. Their influence was more or less balanced with the Third Prince's.
Nowadays, the Emperor of the Qi Kingdom was no longer involved in the affairs of the imperial court. The First Prince was in charge of the affairs of the imperial court while the Third Prince exercised the power of supervision. Both sides competed with each other. Whenever one side lost its balance, the Emperor of the Qi Kingdom would step in and intervene until the balance was restored …
When Li Yi learned about these things from Qian Duoduo, he had a rough idea of the Emperor of the Qi Kingdom's thoughts.
The Emperor was balancing the powers in the imperial court. As long as one side was too powerful, the Emperor might not live to the day he died of old age. He was also sharpening his blade. It did not matter whether Zhao Yi was the blade or Zhao Zheng was the blade. Both of them had scruples. Only when they had scruples could they grow. From the standpoint of the entire Qi Kingdom, no matter who became the Emperor in the end, their growth would be beneficial to the Qi Kingdom.
This was different from the former Emperor.
The former Emperor would personally sweep away all obstacles for Li Xuan, stabilizing the country and intimidating foreign enemies. Then, he would hand over this great land to him in one piece. As for the former Emperor himself, he would not be able to see the empire he had conquered.
The Emperor of the Qi Kingdom was a successful Emperor. So was the former Emperor. Under his leadership, the power of the Jing Kingdom had reached the pinnacle since the founding of the kingdom. The prosperous era under the rule of Li Xuan was just a continuation of the previous prosperous era.
However, unlike the Emperor of the Qi Kingdom, the former Emperor was not only a good Emperor, but also a good father.
If things were really as Li Yi had predicted, the balanced situation in the Qi Kingdom, barring any accidents, such as the sudden death of the Emperor of the Qi Kingdom, Zhao Yi's rebellion, or Zhao Zheng's rebellion, would still be maintained for a long time …
At the side, Qian Duoduo turned to look at Lin Wanru and said, "Sister Wanru, please teach me a few more tricks to do business. Otherwise, if my father asks about it, I won't be able to answer to him …"
Lin Wanru smiled and pointed at Li Yi. She said, "You should ask your Brother Li. He knows more than I do. He definitely won't let you down …"
Miss Lin had been spending all her time learning from Miss.Liu recently on how to become a young fairy. Naturally, she had no time to teach Qian Duoduo.
They were all friends. When a friend was in trouble, Qian Duoduo would be willing to sacrifice himself, much less stand up for him.
Li Yi looked at Qian Duoduo and said, "In this world, there are actually many things that are common. Whether it's doing business, going to war, or fighting for the throne, there are many things in common that can be learned from. Let's take the Third Prince and the Eldest Prince's fight for the throne as an example …"
…
Two hours later, Li Yi looked at him and said, "Conspiring and sowing discord. These methods can not only be used in the fight for the throne. In fact, with a little flexibility, they can also be used in the battle for business."
Hearing this, Qian Duoduo was startled. He said, "The Third Prince and the Eldest Prince didn't use these methods in the fight for the throne …"
Li Yi was startled. He waved his hand and said, "They didn't use them, they didn't use them …"
Qian Duoduo nodded and said, "It's a pity. If they had used them, I would be able to answer to my father when I return …"
Li Yi looked at him for a long time. He sighed and said, "Duoduo …"
Qian Duoduo raised his head and looked at him.
"Let's not talk about doing business or fighting for the throne …" Li Yi shook his head and said, "Tell me, what good methods do you have to deal with those sanctimonious beasts in human clothing …"
Hearing this, Qian Duoduo immediately became excited.
"Let me tell you …"
