Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

"It doesn't matter, one-tenth is one-tenth, but you have to deliver it before sunset tomorrow. In this way, there may be a chance to save it."

Seeing Li Chengqian being so impatient, Changsun Wuji sighed in his heart and then spoke.

As soon as he heard that there was still a chance to save him, Li Chengqian immediately looked at Changsun Wuji and said, "Uncle, you said there is still a chance? Do you have a way?"

Changsun Wuji nodded, turned to the young monk and said, "You should quickly contact your people and ask them to deliver the food on time."

The young monk hesitated for a moment and stood still without moving.

Seeing the other party like this, Changsun Wuji frowned and asked:

"Why, is it possible that you still don't want to?"

The young monk smiled bitterly and said: "It's not because the poor monk is unwilling. In fact, if we sell all the food to you, if Buddhism changes in the future, it will be difficult to continue."

"Haha..." Changsun Wuji was immediately angered by the young monk's words. He stood up and threw the tea cup at hand.

Pointing at the little monk's nose, he cursed: "Now, you still want to sell grain to us? Do you still want to take the opportunity to raise the price? Do you know that if the prince makes a mistake, let alone you, the little monk, even if you are now The Buddhist sect that is still lingering will definitely be wiped out by the furious Emperor."

"you..."

The young monk was startled by Changsun Wuji's actions. Just as he was about to say a few words, he saw a group of guards rushing in from outside, with their long swords unsheathed, and directly surrounded the young monk.

Li Chengqian on the side did not expect that his uncle would suddenly become angry because he had said it well.

Just as he was about to say a few words to the young monk, he met Changsun Wuji's warning eyes.

Li Chengqian shrank his neck and hid aside, not daring to make a sound.

"Lord Changsun, our Buddhist sect is now preparing to surrender to the Crown Prince. If you treat me like this, are you trying to start a war with my Buddhist sect?"

"Haha, you guys want to serve His Highness the Crown Prince? A hawk dog doesn't think about how to serve its master, but wants to take advantage of it?"

"You Buddhists may have had the confidence to threaten us before, but now, in my opinion, you are just a lost dog."

"I'm telling you now, either you obediently hand over the food with both hands, or I will send troops to get it myself. You can choose between the two."

"Besides, after today, I don't want to see you in the prince's palace again. If I see you again, I'll just see your head."

After speaking, Changsun Wuji waved his hands to the guards and said, "Throw him out."

The young monk glanced at Changsun Wuji bitterly, then looked at Li Chengqian who was shrinking aside, snorted angrily, and turned to leave.

As soon as the young monk left, Li Chengqian came up and asked, "Uncle, is it appropriate for us to drive the young monk away like this? The person standing behind him is a Buddhist."

Changsun Wuji glared at Li Chengqian and said:

"You don't know it until now? Buddhism just wants to take advantage of you."

"They provide you with food, but they just want to get money from you."

"They asked you to kill all the merchants in Chang'an City before. They just wanted to use the power in your hands to intensify the conflict between you and the merchants. They wanted to reap the benefits."

"You still don't understand why your father was so cruel to Buddhism before? That's because they are a bunch of selfish, greedy, and ill-fed white-eyed wolves."

"But uncle, now that the food has been replaced, we will definitely not be able to get the required food and grass in a short time. If the father is blamed by then, we will definitely not be able to afford it."

"Humph..."

Changsun Wuji snorted coldly, and then said with gloomy eyes:

"Who said they can't get enough food and grass? There's nothing they can do about it, but that doesn't mean we can't do anything about it ourselves."

As soon as Changsun Wuji said that he had a solution, Li Chengqian immediately became energetic.

"Uncle, are you telling the truth? Is there really a way to collect food and grass? Tell me how to do it quickly."

Seeing Li Chengqian's appearance, which showed no signs of being in the city at all, Changsun Wuji felt powerless.

But now, he had no other choice but to walk all the way to the dark, and sighed:

"Oh my god, as the prince, you are also ordered to supervise the country. Please don't be so impatient in the future."

"Yes, yes, uncle taught me a lesson, can you tell me what you can do now?"

After hearing Changsun Wuji's preaching, Li Chengqian nodded in agreement.

Knowing that now was not the time to preach, Changsun Wuji shook his head and revealed his plan.

"Today, the only person in Chang'an who can produce such a large amount of food is Chu Mo. As long as we find Chu Mo and purchase food and grass from him, we won't be afraid that we won't be able to solve this trouble."

"What, uncle, you actually asked me to find Chu Mo and asked me to cooperate with him? Are you crazy, or did I hear wrongly."

Seeing Li Chengqian so excited, Changsun Wuji was not surprised at all. He nodded with certainty and said:

"Yes, there is no one else but Chu Mo now. If you think it won't work, then forget it."

"However, if we want to cooperate with Chu Mo, he must agree to it. What's more, we can't find any trace of Chu Mo now, so how can we talk about cooperation?"

Seeing that Li Chengqian was not as resolutely opposed as before, Changsun Wuji felt a little calmer.

"Gao Ming, you have to know that Chu Mo is a businessman, and businessmen are all about profit. Although you have sealed up his shop and seized his supplies, as long as you can give him enough compensation, my uncle believes that he will cooperate with you. .”

"As for how to find Chu Mo, it's not difficult. As long as you can put aside your identity as the prince, cancel the wanted order in the city, then post the imperial notice, apologize to Chu Mo, and ensure his safety, I believe he will come out. .”

Li Chengqian jumped up when he heard that he not only compensated Chu Mo, but also posted an apology to him.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. If I apologize to him, wouldn't it make the world laugh? He is just a lowly businessman, how can I let him apologize to me?"

"Do you think that if you don't apologize, your identity as the prince will be retained?"

"Have you ever thought about it, if you are unable to resolve the food and grass issue this time, as soon as the news reaches your father's ears, he will definitely return to Chang'an with his sword and kill you, the prince."

"You have to understand that Chu Mo is not begging us now, but we need Chu Mo. Time is urgent. If you want to delay, then think about it slowly. Let's just say this. You can do it yourself."

Seeing that Sun Wuji was really angry, Li Chengqian suddenly felt fear in his heart.
