He searched his mind, wondering how he should ask Li Er for 73 court ladies.If he asked for it directly, he was afraid that he would be beaten up by Li Er.

On that day, in order to attract the next song, he boasted about Haikou, saying that he would "match" palace ladies and daughter-in-laws for them, but this matter is easy and simple, but difficult to say.

In this Taiji Palace, although there are thousands of maids, not everyone can spy on them.Usually, Li Er would only bestow a few stunning palace servants on meritorious ministers as rewards.

There are many court ladies who are willing to go out of the palace to marry someone in this Tai Chi Palace.

Not to mention 73, even 730, it is easy to get together.

But the key point is how could Li Er gift so many court ladies to Li Wangyou for no reason?What's more, he was betrothed to his family's trilogy as his wife.If this matter gets out, where will Li Er's face be put?

So naturally, Li Wangyou couldn't just talk like this and ask Li Er for a court lady.He rolled his eyeballs a few times, and then he made a draft in his heart.

"Uncle, my nephew entered the palace today, but there is something I want to report to my uncle."

"speak."

"Uncle, it will be uncle's birthday in two months. My nephew wants to give my uncle a special birthday present, so when I enter the palace today, I want to ask my uncle for some help."

Li Er's birthday is the Wuwu day of the twelfth lunar month, that is, the 22nd day of the twelfth lunar month, and there are still more than two months left.

Li Wangyou's words aroused Li Er's interest, he put down the memorial in his hand and said with a smile: "Ziyou has a heart, I don't know what you want to give me? What kind of people do you want to borrow?"

"Hehe, Uncle, wouldn't it be meaningless to talk about this birthday gift? Let my nephew keep it a secret. How about giving uncle a surprise on his birthday? My nephew wants to borrow three hundred maids to prepare for the birthday gift."

Li Er didn't think much about what Li Wangyou said, but just raised his head and laughed loudly: "Okay, okay, then I will wait for Ziyou's congratulatory gift. You can talk to Mi Tuo about any maids you need. Choose yourself."

"Thank you uncle!" Li Wangyou quickly bowed and saluted, but his heart was full of joy...

After Li Wangyou thanked Li Er, he asked again: "Uncle, if these court ladies are disobedient, does my nephew have the right to deal with it?"

Li Er didn't take it seriously, and waved his hand at him: "I'll leave it to you, and I'll let you handle it naturally. Anyone who refuses to be disciplined will be killed."

It was his words that Li Wangyou was waiting for, and after thanking Li Er again, he hurriedly pulled Mi Tuo out of the Lizheng Palace, ready to choose a maid.

"May I ask Uncle Huxian, what kind of court lady do you need? The maidservant can be notified in advance."

Li Wangyou chuckled: "Of course we need those who can sing and dance well, and who are good at various musical instruments. Age, don't be too young, preferably over 20 years old, and it is best to be a court lady who is willing to marry out of the palace."

Mi Tuo was taken aback by his words, he didn't understand what Li Wangyou meant.

It's easy to understand if you want to be good at singing and dance instruments, but if you want to be old and willing to go out of the palace to get married, what do you want to do?What does this have to do with presenting gifts to Li Er's birthday?

"Uncle Huxian, why can't this servant understand what you say?"

"Don't ask, it's a secret. Do you know the secret? The sage asked me and I didn't say anything. If I did, there would be no surprises." Li Wangyou was not willing to tell Mi Tuo the truth, so he dismissed him vaguely.

Mi Tuo had no choice but to follow what Li Wangyou said, and took him to Taichang Temple. From among them, he selected [-] court ladies who were good at singing and dancing, and who were old enough to marry, and handed them over to Li Wangyou to bring them out. up the palace.

Seeing that Li Wangyou entered the Tai Chi Palace, when he came out, Yingying Yanyan was followed by hundreds of beauties of various colors, Niu Wu and other trilogy who were waiting for Li Wangyou outside the palace gate, their eyes widened. up.

Li Wangyou kicked Niu Wu angrily: "It's fine for them to look at it. You have a wife, so what a fart! Be careful and I will talk to you and my mother-in-law when I go back."

"Lang Jun, don't, don't, hey, I'm just watching for the brothers, hey." Niu Wu hurriedly smiled and begged for mercy.

Li Wangyou glared at him angrily: "Go to Dongshi quickly and let the farmers bring the carriages, otherwise I won't be able to go back to Dingzhou Village today."

"Lang Jun, let the little ladies ride in that four-wheeled carriage? Those are carts for pulling goods." Niu Wu muttered.

"Nonsense, don't take those four-wheeled carriages, why don't you carry them back? There are [-] court ladies here. Where can I find so many horses? You ask the peasants to prepare to find some more horses and stools, so they can sit in the carriages. Alright? By the way, go back and talk to Mrs. Su and Li Heng, let them prepare, these three hundred court ladies will live in the mansion for two or three months."

Niu Wu had no choice but to follow Li Wangyou's instructions, and arranged for a member of the team to report back to Dingzhou Village before rushing to Dongshi Shunfeng Carriage Shop.

While waiting for the carriage to arrive, Li Wangyou suddenly thought, should he get some four-wheeled carriages used by customers?

Before that, he asked Carpenter Liu to build a lot of luxurious versions of "four-wheeled carriages", which were given to a group of state princes including Empress Changsun, and they were greatly appreciated and thanked by everyone.

Nowadays, in Chang'an City, more and more craftsmen are commissioned to imitate these four-wheeled carriages, but the customers are all noble officials and wealthy businessmen.

In Chang'an City, ordinary people still rely on the "No. 11" bus and rely on walking to travel.After all, there are still a small number of families who can afford mules and horses, and in the huge city of Chang'an, even if you go out of the city to go to the east and west cities to buy something, you have to walk for a long time.

Li Wangyou pondered, the reason why the east and west cities only open at noon is probably because customers leave early in the morning, and when they reach the east and west cities, it will be exactly noon...

The public transportation system seems to be a money-making business.

Now that there are more and more SF carriages, the households in Dingzhou Village are no longer enough.

The beautiful boss has also "recruited" the driver several times, and there is an endless stream of drivers who come to apply for the job. After all, the income of the driver of the carriage dealer is very enviable.

The business of the carriage house is getting bigger and bigger, and the range of cargo transportation is also as far as Yinzhou. The beautiful boss is also planning to continue to expand the scope of cargo transportation.

The longer the distance the goods were transported, the more money they would make, but the farmers in Dingzhou Village would have less time to go home.

Li Wangyou has recently felt that there are no young and strong people in the village, which is not what he wants to see.So he has been thinking about how to help the farmers in the village find a job that can make money without traveling far.

Today, he had to transport [-] court ladies back to the village, which inspired him. This "bus" is also a profitable business.

Thinking of this, Li Wangyou explained to the followers, then turned around and went back to Tai Chi Palace.

In the Lizheng Palace, Li Er was very surprised to see Li Wangyou go and return.

"Ziyou, is there anything else?"

"Uncle, my nephew just thought of something and came here to report to uncle."

"What's the matter?"

"Uncle, the population of Chang'an City is close to one million. However, among the common people, there are only a few who can keep mules and horses. In the large Chang'an City, it is inconvenient for the common people to travel, which is very distressing."

Li Er was slightly taken aback when he heard this, and then nodded slowly: "Ziyou, you are right, and I have heard about it, and many people complain about it. But there is nothing I can do about it. We can’t give each of them a mule or horse.”

Li Wangyou rubbed his hands, and said with a chuckle: "Uncle, my nephew has a solution, which can solve the rare travel problem for the people in Chang'an City. I wonder if uncle is interested?"

Li Er curiously asked: "What clever plan does Ziyou have, please tell me quickly."

"Stage carriage."

"What is a public carriage?" Li Er was puzzled.

He understands the word public, and the explanation in "Historical Records" is "what the Son of Heaven shares with the world." It means public, public.But how did the carriage become public property?

"Uncle, my nephew is going to build a batch of carriages with built-in benches for riding. They will drive back and forth in Chang'an City according to a fixed route. When people need it, they can stretch out their hands to stop, reach the place they want to go, and get off at any time. The fare is also very cheap, my nephew thought that two cents per person would be enough. In this way, it can solve the rare travel problem of the people in the city."

Li Er thought about Li Wangyou's words carefully, nodded and shook his head: "Ziyou, your idea is very good. With this public carriage, the travel problem of the people in Chang'an City can indeed be solved. But I don't think your public carriage I only charge two coins, isn’t it too little? I’m afraid it’s not enough for the husband’s monthly salary and the fodder money for the horses, right? I only rely on your subsidy. I’m worried that the public carriage will not operate for a long time, so it’s better to charge more for the fare.”

What Li Er said made Li Wangyou roll his eyes.
