Chapter Thirty-Three: Joining Forces

Princess Sui'an stayed at Chen's house for dinner.

Chen Zhengtai asked someone to cook good food, and she had a lot of fun, as if there was nothing to be restrained in front of Chen Zhengtai.

Then, she hurriedly talked about what happened at the banquet, talked about how her mother smiled happily, and talked about the changes in the palace. Then she held her chin and looked at Chen Zhengtai and said, "Senior Brother, I will listen to you in the future. I will do whatever you teach me. Senior Brother is so awesome and understands everything."

Chen Zhengtai said with a stern face: "You can understand these words in your heart. Don't yell around, as the big tree attracts wind."

"Oh." Princess Sui'an nodded very simply: "I understand that the wood is outstanding in the forest, and the wind will destroy it."

Chen Zhengtai sighed: "I also hope to be a mediocre person."

Princess Sui'an couldn't help but sigh: "Senior brother has such talent, it is impossible for the pearl to be covered with dust."

She blinked again and said sincerely to Chen Zhengtai: "This time I really thank my senior brother. Senior brother is really better than Mr. Jiang and Zhang Ziliang. It's all right. Senior brother, I've thought about it. I will do whatever you say in the future. My things are yours...

When Chen Zhengtai heard this, he felt particularly nervous. It was not until she did not continue to say that your things were mine, that Chen Zhengtai felt a little relieved.

At this time, Chen Zhengtai didn't want her to talk too much, but asked directly: "What are the plans for junior sister in the future?"

"Me?" Princess Sui'an was young after all. At first she just wanted to change her destiny. Now, her mother has become one of the nine concubines, and her father has become more favorable to her. Although she is far from being as good as Princess Changle, she is satisfied. She blinked her big eyes, stared at Chen Zhengtai, pursed her lips and smiled: "I'm not involved in it, my senior brother thinks."

Chen Zhengtai sighed: "Actually, I am not involved in the matter..."

It seemed that I felt that it was meaningless to emphasize this to Princess Sui'an. Chen Zhengtai said seriously: "Although my junior sister is a daughter, my daughters of the Tang Dynasty are all heroes. Now, although my mentor's impression of the junior sister has changed, as a woman, you can't rely solely on others. Have you ever thought about relying on yourself?"

"Depending on yourself?" Princess Sui'an stared at Chen Zhengtai, and she thought something was wrong.

Chen Zhengtai always felt that there seemed to be a gene of restlessness in the blood of the Li royal family. Whether it is a princess or a prince, they are particularly able to fight, and this... Obviously, Princess Sui'an also has it.

Princess Sui'an pondered: "How can you rely on yourself?"

Chen Zhengtai sighed and said, "First of all, we must be self-improvement. How can we be self-improvement? Have your Highness ever thought about what we need most today?"

Princess Sui'an thought something and didn't understand it. She felt that thinking was too brain-struggling, and finally looked at Chen Zhengtai: "What do you need most?"

Chen Zhengtai slapped his thigh: "The things you need most for the time being are two, both salt and pigs. As the saying goes, no salt is not rich, no meat is not happy. If you get these two things, then there will be hope for peace in the world."

"Ah." Although Princess Sui'an has decided to trust her senior brother completely, she still feels like you are lying to me.

Chen Zhengtai sighed and said, "You may not believe it. It just so happens that the Chen family is now doing a salt deal. My salt is good and cheap, and it is really a rare treasure. It is growing production. The only disadvantage is that it lacks an enterprising person like the junior sister to join forces. Is Your Highness interested in this?"

"Ah?" Princess Sui'an exclaimed again.

Chen Zhengtai lowered his voice and said, "Your Highness, you can definitely make money every day. We are brothers and sisters, can I still lie to you? The only thing that is worrying now is... the output is still a little low, and the one that is most lacking... is still money. If you have more money and recruit more craftsmen, it would be great. But junior sister, you also know that the Chen family has been a little short of money recently. The junior sister is a princess and a noble man in heaven..."

"But I gave me a lot of gifts just now..."

Chen Zhengtai suddenly felt that Princess Sui'an had insulted her.

With the gifts you receive with your ability, can you still take the gifts you give to invest? Is it worth bullying me, Chen Jiazhonghou?

"Junior sister, junior sister, what you give me is all the things in the palace, and most of them are given by the emperor. The emperor is my mentor. If I, Chen Zhengtai, sell these things, would be unfaithful and unfilial, deceive my master and destroy my ancestors. Is this still a human being? Although these treasures were given to me by my junior sister, I would carefully worship them and use them as heirlooms."

"But I have no money." Princess Sui'an said ashamedly: "In the past, I didn't have many monthly cases, but my mother's...was..."

"Can you borrow it?"

"Borrow it? Then why don't the Chen family borrow it?"

Chen Zhengtai showed an embarrassing expression and said for a long time: "You may not believe it when you say it. There are many people in Chang'an City who misunderstand our Chen family. Junior sister, others can't trust the senior brother, can you trust it?"

Princess Sui'an thoughts and gritted her teeth: "Listen to Senior Brother."

It is easy to borrow money, but Princess Sui'an is thin-skinned, but she can't resist her noble status. As long as she is willing to give up, it will be easy to deal with.

According to the three generations of household registrations that Chen Zhengtai checked for the Li family's royal family, Chen Zhengtai planned to list a list of possible borrowed money.

The Princess Tai'an was then sent to the residences of each family, and Chen Zhengtai and Chen Fu were sneaking in the corner of the street.

Princess Sui'an entered the mansion, and the first family entered the mansion of Cheng Yaojin, the famous governor of Luzhou.

Cheng Yaojin is now the governor of Luzhou. He returned to Chang'an from Luzhou at the beginning of the year and only left to return to Luzhou to take office at the end of the year.

However, Cheng Yaojin was not at the mansion today. When he heard that the princess was coming, Cheng Yaojin's son Cheng Chumo came out in a hurry and was overjoyed.

After a while, Princess Sui'an came out of the Cheng family with a big money bag.

Cheng Chumo happily sent it to the middle gate and muttered: "Your Highness should come often, and you don't have to pay back the money in a hurry. What Your Highness has told me will cover..."

Behind him... Following the accountant of the Cheng family, the accountant looked at Cheng Chumo with a resentful look. When Princess Sui'an's carriage and horses walked away, he said: "The Major General has fallen in love with Princess Sui'an?"

When Cheng Chumo heard this, his body shook, and the flesh on his face became tense. His eyes were confused and dull at first, and then he looked at the void wisely. After a long time, he said: "My second brother can still marry a princess, I think I can do it too. It doesn't matter who the princess is, what matters is that he is a princess. What I, Cheng Chumo, married is not a woman, but a face."

Accounting: "…"

After a moment of silence, the accountant said, "Major General, will Your Highness repay the 100 stakes you have borrowed? And... Your Highness hopes that Luzhou will give you some convenience... This..."

"Don't worry, I'll just tell my family to the generals, it's all a trivial matter."

…………

I have to say that the princess is still more respectful than the Chen family.

Although Chen Zhengtai suspected, it seemed that anyone in Chang'an City would have greater face than the Chen family.

Of course, this is not the point, at least 2,500 stagnant coins are considered to be there.

The Chen family is indeed short of money. After a group of waste, the family’s cash is empty.

Although the shop now sells salt, after all... the output is limited and the daily profit has to be re-production.

Chen Zhengtai’s purpose... is to continue to expand production and produce this white salt, just like the sand on the ground, the most important thing at the moment is to defeat all competitors.

So... I had to spend a lot of money to expand production and recruit people.

"Your Highness, I think the name of Chen's salt industry is not good. Since your highness has invested..."

"What is the investment?"

"Don't interrupt." Chen Zhengtai tense his face.

"Oh, oh..."

"Since I have bought a stock, I think my name needs to be changed, for example...it is called Erpigou Salt Industry, which is better than the name of the surname. After all... From then on, Your Highness will be the honorary boss of our business."

"Honors?"

"The honorary boss means that to the outside world, this transaction belongs to His Highness. If anyone is not convinced in the future, he can come to His Highness to argue with him."

Princess Sui'an frowned: "But... I won't argue with others."

"No need to argue, you just need to smile at them, it's all the details. Oh, we are people who do big things, so don't be petty. Come on, Your Highness... There is a contract here, you can draw a note, and we will have a good time together in the future."

Princess Sui'an felt that there were still many things that she didn't understand.

But...thinking seems to be a very laborious thing.

Since my senior brother has already thought about it for me, then...

She was very straightforward and neat.

Chen Zhengtai sighed relieved: "Is your highness interested? Go out of the city to see. We are planning to recruit people and expand production now. It won't take long to use the salt of our Erpigou in Chang'an City."

Princess Sui'an felt that after she wrote a picture, her senior brother became more enthusiastic about her.

I don't know if it's my illusion.
