Datang: Empress mother-in-law sent Li Er to test me

The two shook their heads.

Zhang Dun said in a deep voice: "Yes, if we can't get the money, we have to take a different approach and find another way."

Changsun Wuji was puzzled and said, "Helping him make money is to find another way? Aren't you harming yourself and benefiting others?"

"Harvest oneself to benefit others?" Zhang Dun smiled, and said seriously: "Am I that kind of person? Or, does Changsun Shangshu feel that the lower officials really want to help Li Gong make money?"

"Didn't you just say..."

Changsun Wuji subconsciously wanted to mention what he said in front of Li Ji.

When the words came to his lips, Changsun Wuji swallowed them back and squinted at Zhang Dun.

Something is wrong!

Zhang Dun did say in front of Li Ji just now that he wanted to help him make money.

But think about it carefully, in order to ask Li Ji for money, first helped him earn 230 million Guan, is this possible?

He also said that he could earn 230 million guan in ten days and half a month.

This is impossible!

Moreover, Zhang Dun didn't believe it himself!

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to say that!

Changsun Wuji lowered his head and pondered for a while, then suddenly his heart moved, and he said in a meaningful tone: "My boy, is this what you are going for?"

Tang Jian stood at the side, and after thinking about it, he suddenly said, "You told Li Gong so much, but you actually want to borrow his mansion?"

After all, he is the third-rank official of the dynasty!Zhang Dun smiled and nodded, "Not bad!"

Helping Li Ji make money is a pretense.

What he really wanted was Li Ji's promise to take out the mansion and use it to make money.

Chapter 216 What is our purpose, to make money, not shabby

Changsun Wuji asked curiously, "What are you going to do?"

Zhang Dun smiled and said, "Let's wait a while."

"Magistrate Zhang!" Soon, Bantou Yang came over with a dozen merchants wearing Futou, "I brought people here."

"Thanks for your hard work." Zhang Dun smiled, then cupped his hands to a dozen merchants and said, "Everyone, I haven't seen you for a long time."

"I've seen County Magistrate Zhang!" More than a dozen merchants hurriedly bowed their hands in return.

Tang Jian asked curiously, "Who are these people?"

Zhang Dun said: "Merchants in the West Market."

As he spoke, he pointed to one of the merchants and said, "This one used to be a salt seller, he used to be a department store seller..."

Tang Jian and Changsun Wuji stared at him in a daze as he introduced more than a dozen merchants. Tang Jian was even more confused: "Why did you ask them to come?"

Before Zhang Dun could open his mouth, one of the merchants laughed and said, "Magistrate Zhang said that we can make a fortune here!"

After finishing speaking, everyone looked at Zhang Dun eagerly.

They met Zhang Dun when Zhang Dun was fighting with the five surnames and Qiwang in Zuixianlou, selling them department stores.

People are unbelievable!

How long has passed, and the cook of Zuixianlou has transformed into a fifth-rank Wannianling wearing a scarlet official robe!

The reason why they came here was not because Zhang Dun was Wannian Ling.

It was because Zhang Dun sent someone to tell them that they could get rich when they came.

Hearing the news, they put down everything in their hands, wishing they could fly to him.

Zhang Dun's ability to make money is obvious to all.

Zuixianlou can be brought back to life thanks to Zhang Dun.

The five surnames and Qiwang's confession was also because Zhang Dun replaced the supply of five surnames and Qiwang with Zuixianlou Department Store, which cut off their source of income.

They also made a lot of money in it.

Zhang Dun smiled and pointed to the Duke's Mansion behind him, and asked, "Do you know where this is?"

"Yes, this is the British government."

The merchants said in unison.

Zhang Dun hummed, and continued: "The Duke of England has said that from today on, his mansion will be handled by the official."

Hearing this, someone among the merchants said cautiously: "Magistrate Zhang, do you want us to pay for his mansion?"

Zhang Dun laughed, "I dare to sell it, but do you dare to buy it?"

"Don't dare!"

Everyone said in unison.

What's more, even if you want to buy it, you don't have the money to buy it.

Zhang Dun looked at them with a smile on his face, "I don't want you to buy it, you know, this is a chicken that lays golden eggs."

Tang Jian smacked his tongue and said, "Wouldn't the Duke's mansion become a chicken coop? Isn't Mr. Li..."

"Huh?" Suddenly, a voice sounded at the door of the Duke's mansion.

Tang Jian heard the reputation, and saw Li Ji standing at the door with a smile, staring at him.

"Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue." Tang Jian laughed dryly and said haha.

Li Ji didn't bother to talk to him, but looked at Zhang Dun with great interest.

What is this kid doing by calling so many merchants?

Zhang Dun glanced at him, "Li Gong, eavesdropping is not a good hobby."

Li Ji laughed and said, "You say what you say, but the old man won't listen."

Then you should go!

However, Li Ji didn't intend to move at all.

Zhang Dun shook his head speechlessly, then beckoned, let a dozen merchants get closer, and then whispered in their ears: "You do this, and then..."

"do you understand?"

"understand!"

After listening to his words, the merchants nodded one after another, and someone asked in confusion: "Magistrate Zhang, can you really make a fortune this way?"

Zhang Dun nodded with a smile, "Whether you can make a fortune depends on your ability."

"Understood! County magistrate Zhang, let's take our leave first."

Everyone arched their hands, turned and walked away quickly.

In an instant, outside the Duke's mansion, there were only five people left: Zhang Dun, Tang Jian, Changsun Wuji, Yang Bantou and Li Ji.

Li Ji walked up to Zhang Dun, put his hands behind his back, tilted his head to look at him, and said, "Magistrate Zhang, what the hell are you doing?"

Zhang Dun said seriously: "Help Mr. Li make money."

Li Ji clicked his tongue, "Find a group of merchants, talk to them a few words, and you can make money?"

"Li Gong, don't worry."

Zhang Dun smiled and said patiently: "In a moment, someone will send money to your door."

Li Ji narrowed his eyes and said, "The old man will wait and see."

Not long after, the sound of footsteps suddenly came from a distance.

Tang Jian and Changsun Wuji looked up, and saw the dozen or so merchants walking over with hundreds of big households in brocade and satin.

"Is what you said true?"

"Can we really enter the Duke's Mansion?"

There were constant discussions among the crowd.

A dozen merchants stood beside them, smiling and talking in low voices.

One of the merchants quickly walked up to Zhang Dun and said, "Magistrate Zhang, we brought him here!"

Zhang Dun hummed, raised his feet and walked over, looked at hundreds of big households, and said with a smile: "Everyone, my official is Wannianling Zhang Dun."

"I've seen Magistrate Zhang."

More than 100 big households hurriedly clapped their hands.

Zhang Dun continued: "I am very pleased that you can come, have you brought all the money?"

"Brought it!"

One of the big householders in a dark blue robe smiled and reached into his sleeve, took out a tael of gold, and asked, "Magistrate Zhang, are you serious?"

Zhang Dun nodded and said, "That's natural."

Changsun Wuji and Tang Jian stood aside with blank expressions.

Li Ji frowned, and looked at Zhang Dun, what the hell was this kid doing.

"Let me explain briefly."

Looking at the confusion of the three people, Zhang Dun explained: "These hundred or so people are all for the Duke's Mansion."

Li Ji snorted, "And then?"

Zhang Dun said with a smile: "The lower officials asked these West Market shopkeepers to bring a message to these big households, saying that the Duke's Mansion is a blessed place, and a visit to the Duke's Mansion will bring them good luck."

Li Ji's expression changed slightly, and a trace of uneasiness emerged in his heart, "And then?"

Zhang Dun said with a serious face: "Then, these big households want to gain fame."

"Of course, after all, it's the Duke's Mansion, and it's a blessed place in our Tang Dynasty, so we must pay some money."

Zhang Dun said seriously: "So, I set a price for them. If they want to enter the Duke's Mansion, they will pay six pennies per person, which is one tael of gold."

Li Ji: "..."

Zhang Dun continued: "This is just the ticket fee to enter the Duke's Mansion. If you want to visit other houses in the Duke's Mansion, you have to pay another six pennies."

Li Ji: "..."

Zhang Dun said with a smile on his face: "The most important thing is Li Gong. I also told them that if they want to know Li Gong, they have to pay twelve pennies."

Li Ji: "..."

Zhang Dun continued: "After all, Mr. Li is the British Duke of our Tang Dynasty, so your pen and ink will be more valuable. Each person will get 24 pennies."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Dun paused, looked at Li Ji seriously, and asked, "Mr. Li, do you understand what the officer said?"

Li Ji was silent for a few seconds, then grinned, pointed to his nose and said, "Zhang Dun, isn't it good for you to be a human being?"

Chapter 217 Li Ji Pays Back the Money

Li Ji felt that anger was rising from his heart, not only did he have the desire to curse, but also the desire to beat others!

This bastard is not a son of man!

Take the old man to make money?

Fortunately, he can figure it out!

Zhang Dun frowned, and said, "Mr. Li, don't forget our purpose, to make money, not shabby."

Li Ji said angrily: "It's shabby, it's so fucking shabby!"

"What do you think of the old man? What do you think of the old man's mansion?!"

"Isn't this the best way?" Zhang Dun spread his hands and sighed, "Li Gong, this is the fastest way to make money."

Li Ji's tone was firm: "I don't agree!"

"That won't work!"
