Chapter 46

At the foot of Zhongnan mountain, a new city rose six years ago. After six years of careful planning, layout and construction. Today, it has become a prosperous city completely different from all the cities in the Tang Dynasty.

Extending at the foot of the mountain and surrounded by a wall like the Great Wall, the area is now the important commercial development area of the Tang Dynasty, and it is also regarded as the top secret place of the Tang Dynasty. Outsiders are not allowed to get close to it.

Glass, mirror, crystal, new metallurgy, fine wine and so on, including the beautiful jade of Lantian County not far from the new city, as well as all kinds of porcelain that had been loved by the Tang people, were transported from here to all parts of the Tang Dynasty or to other countries.

These are regarded by outsiders as the products on the surface of this new city, that is, Taiyi city. No one knows what secret industry the city is still engaged in.

Because in the enclosed area behind Taiyi City, the prince's guard is there every day. Outsiders are not allowed to approach.

At this time, on the flat and broad official road, a carriage slowly drove into the city from the official road. At the gate of the city, many people of Tang Dynasty and foreigners who were looking forward to it gathered. After confirming the sign of the carriage, they ran to the teahouses, restaurants and restaurants in the city to report to their shopkeepers. The shopkeeper quickly checked out the account and ran out in a hurry.

All of a sudden, several prosperous streets in Taiyi city were filled with eager businessmen. They stood on the street and quickly identified the next direction. Then they took their servants to a mansion in the middle of the city.

When all the merchants drove their carriages or horses to the gate of a courtyard in the middle of the city, the carriage passing by the gate of Taiyi city just drove into the yard at the moment.

The merchants looked at each other and murmured in their hearts, "it's OK, it's not too late. Today we have to ask for more shares."

The carriage stopped at the entrance of another courtyard in the courtyard, and the curtain was immediately opened by the servants waiting at the door, and a woman in white came out slowly from it.

Bai Chun looked up at the blue sky, and then after the carriage left, Meimu looked at the merchants gathered at the door and said faintly, "let them wait in the meeting hall."

Compared with six years ago, the graceful and graceful people are more beautiful. But the charm of the body is more and more enchanting, look at the bewilderment, always give people a kind of indescribable charm, and gorgeous feeling.

In recent years, more and more like to wear white shirt and skirt, but also that kind of white coarse cloth shirt skirt, not silk and other noble fabrics.

The long hair, as bright as ink, is no longer combed into a variety of bun like before, but simply tied in the back of the head with a white rope until the buttocks.

Such a strange dress in today's popular bun era, but it does not appear abrupt, grotesque, on the contrary, let people think that Miss White is the most beautiful dress.

But if we use Li Hong's words, it is: "temperament pity this body, not cannibalism between fireworks fairy dress."

Every time Bai Chun heard this, she asked the crown prince with gnashing teeth: "can I change my temperament? Can you blame me for being born? "

Or it is to look up beautiful face conceited to say: "charming and enchanting, amorous feelings charm temperament, which is not the world which women want to have there!"

"Miss White, please." The steward opened the door, please Bai chun to go ahead.

Today's Bai Chun although said no official, no job, no one in the Tang Dynasty dare to despise this woman. Because everyone knows that she is the prince's person, in charge of the forbidden area behind Taiyi city for the prince.

and Tai Yi city seem to be the city states that are separated from the Tang Dynasty. In name, Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu are the parents of Tai Yi city. But in fact, the whole city has the final say.

Moreover, Lord Xu and Lord Li seldom come to Taiyi city. They always complain that there are too few people in Taiyi city and there are too many floating population in Taiyi city. They give it to Bai Chunhao.

After resting for half an hour, Bai Chun slowly appeared in the meeting hall when many businessmen were impatient to wait.

The furnishings of the whole conference hall are very simple. There is a three Zhang long conference table with flowers and brocade clusters in the middle of the long conference table. On both sides are dozens of wide and comfortable chairs.

Holding the agenda book in her hand, Bai Chun quickly walked to the first seat at the top of the conference table and sat down. The central position was empty. No one else would dare to touch the chair except the prince or his majesty when he came.

The two maids who followed Bai Chun quickly handed out the documents that had been prepared in their hands to the businessmen sitting there.

White pure soft beautiful voice light said: "these are this month, can maximize to your commodity."

After that, the businessmen sitting there frowned and pondered over how to sell them. After all, they gave much less than last month, especially mirrors and crystal ornaments.

"Miss Bai, in the past years, foreign merchants were not allowed to buy and sell the crystal and glass. Why did they take such a large share this time? You promised me last month that you would give it according to the amount I gave you this month." A businessman was holding the receipt in his hand, and his brow was almost twisted into a rope, so he could not explain it when he went back.White pure charming amorous feelings of smile, suddenly the entire conference room as if bathed in the spring breeze, so that many businessmen sitting are heart and liver.

"It's a temporary and permanent decision. I'm sorry I didn't inform you in time last time..." Bai Chun said.

Before he had finished speaking, a foreign businessman not far from him interrupted him excitedly and said, "Miss Bai, do you mean that we will keep a copy of these things every month in the future?" Looking at Bai Chun with excitement, he doesn't care about the price 40% higher than that of Datang.

"Yes, in the future, we will leave you a copy of these items originally exclusive to the Tang Dynasty. There will be no more favoring one thing over another." Bai Chun said with a smile on her face.

But Li Hong was about to be scolded to death in my heart. This thing is just too bad. At that time, he sent Jingzhe and chebao to Qiuci state to contact the craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty. It seemed that he took advantage of these people and his own unremitting efforts over the years to build a huge business intelligence network in the western regions.

Some time ago, I received information that it seems that Persians and Dashi may have made glass. Although the transparency is far less than that of Tang Dynasty glass, if they are allowed to develop, it will not take more than ten years to catch up with the original glass manufacturing technology of Datang.

After a short period of thinking, Li Hong ordered Bai chun to sell glass and other accessories to the western regions from this month, in order to make Dashi, Persia and other countries give up making glass.

Although this is something that the countries in the western regions are looking forward to day and night, Bai Chun is not happy. The black hearted guy set the price 40% higher than the price sold to the Tang merchants. In this way, he can make a profit.

What's more, she has another important thing to do this time, that is, according to Li Hong's drawings, she can make small glass bottles that can be grasped with one hand, which is said to be used as a kind of perfume. At that time, these things will make more money than other things.

Now, the Daming Palace behind the Taiji palace, under the proposal of her majesty, will continue to be built this year, and the glass, cement and other articles used need Bai chun to come to Taiyi city to supervise and urge.

As for the originator of all this, he is sitting at the desk with the emperor of the Tang Dynasty in the Ganlu Hall of Taiji palace, where he is painting something.

"No more! You don't know how to draw it. " Ten year old prince Li Hong threw the charcoal pen in his hand and leaned back in his chair.

"It's not clear where you are. It's your painting skills." Li Zhi, emperor of the Tang Dynasty, looked at the simple lines on the table, and then easily outlined the painting method of human face, retorted.

At the beginning, Li Hong did not look like a cotton painting for a long time, and he was sneered at by Bai Chun once. Later, after his profound review, he suddenly remembered the sketching method of the previous life. After painting Bai Chun a self portrait, he never drew anything else in these years.

A few days ago, I came to greet my father and Emperor. They chatted and talked about Lizhi's father, that is, Li Hong's grandfather Li Shimin. Li Zhi's feeling of nostalgia came into being, so Li Hong proposed that his father and the emperor describe and paint by himself.

However, the father and son have been struggling for nearly an hour, but they have drawn several paintings, but none of them is satisfactory to Li Zhi.

Wu Mei is sitting behind her father and son, with the self portraits Li Hong gave her and Li Zhi in her hand. She looks at the scene and laughingly looks at this scene. It is rare for such a situation to happen in the royal family.

Li Zhi took up the portrait of the empress grandson on the desk for a long time, then murmured: "your emperor's grandmother painted nine points similar, but I always feel that there is something wrong with the portrait of your emperor's grandfather. I repeat, if you can't draw well again, I will let you go to Baiji!"

"Father, there is a fight between Tubo and tubuhun. You should send your son's minister there." Li Hong picked up the charcoal on the desk and said.

"It's just a war between the two countries. As long as it doesn't affect the Tang Dynasty, let them go first. But if Baiji wants to restore the country again, I'm afraid that the injustice will happen again." Li Zhi picked up the porcelain cup improved by Li Hong and said after a sip of tea.

"In fact, you don't have to worry about the affairs there. Apart from the regret that the emperor's grandfather was defeated in the three expeditions, you can't see anything beneficial to the Tang Dynasty. Moreover, the place is poor and vicious. Now you have made them feel your power. Why not withdraw Liu Rengui and others back to the side of Tubo, after all, this is our big trouble." Li Hong started painting again in accordance with the image of Li Shimin, the emperor's grandfather, just as Li Zhi said.

"Boy, tell me about your careful thinking. You've made enough money in recent years, and you've begun to stare at my military power again?" Li Zhi looked at Li Hong's rapid painting on the paper, and asked without raising his head.

After hearing this, Wu Mei's heart trembled and her hands trembled. She put two paintings on the desk. Just about to speak, she heard Li Hong say to his father in a tone of indifference.

"That's not true. I'm not interested. That's your business. The six rates of your son's minister have not been clarified yet. When the child minister understands it, he will attack your twelve guards." Li Hong said, painting.

"Well, you can explain to me why the glass sent to Daming Palace is 10% more expensive than selling it to the common people." Li Zhi snorted discontentedly and slapped Li Hong in the back of his head.With a stroke of the charcoal pen in Li Hong's hand, on the white paper on the desk, the emperor's grandfather's originally majestic face was scratched all the way, and his expression immediately became distorted. It seemed that he was complaining about these two unworthy descendants and destroying his image of being brave and wise.
