Chapter 1948 The Li brothers arrived.
"Your Majesty, these people are our supporters, and we cannot offend them all."
Seeing Li Shen's unfriendly look, Wang Xuance had to remind him.
Behind them stand dozens of high-ranking court officials, princes and nobles, who will play a big role at critical moments.
At the end of the Xizhou case, it was the elders of this group of people who supported Prince Ji in the court, preventing the aristocratic families from gaining the upper hand.
“I know this and I won’t do anything to them. Besides, they dare not act presumptuously in front of me.
Do they think that I don't know what they are thinking? They think they can succeed on their own, so why should they give me half of the money?
Hum, what a wild idea. "
Li Shen snorted coldly again. There are always some people in this world who think they can do it too after seeing others succeed.
Little do they know that this is just survivor bias.
Just as people in later generations often say that college graduates without jobs have to work as deliverymen, and they cite examples of successful people with low education, but ignore the large number of failures with low education, leading to wrong conclusions.
Li Shen has always believed that reading can change one's destiny.
The group of people in front of us are just like this. The business management has always been done by the Ji Wangfu. They only care about dividends and money, which makes them mistakenly think that business is easy to do and money is easy to make.
Since it is so profitable, why don't they start their own business? They have the capital, so why do they need to cooperate with Li Shen? Only 50% of the profit from more than a hundred people is given to Li Shen, and the rest belongs to him.
This makes a lot of people uncomfortable.
"Thump...Thump...Thump..." There was a hurried sound of footsteps on the stairs. After a moment, Li Chongyi came up, followed by Li Hui, Li Jingheng,
In addition, there was another young man.
The four of them came to Li Shen with smiles on their faces and bowed.
"I have met His Highness Prince Ji."
"Hahaha, no need to be polite, we are all brothers, why should we be so polite.
I have met several brothers.”
Li Shen waved with a smile on his face, then stood up to return the greeting.
"Etiquette cannot be abolished." Li Chongyi replied with a smile.
"Okay, there's no need for this. There's no outsider here. Sit down and have a taste of the freshly brewed tea."
Li Shen smiled and offered his seat to several people. Wang Xuance and Pei Mingli quickly stood up and saluted Li Chongyi and others.
The focus is on Li Chongyi and Li Jingheng, both of whom are princes and will inherit the title of king in the future.
"By the way, isn't cousin accompanying the Crown Prince? How did you find time to come here? You are now a favorite, a trusted confidant, and a great general of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Li Shen asked with a smile.
"Hahaha, cousin, you see what I said was right, even His Royal Highness Prince Ji said so." Li Jingheng on the side agreed with a smile.
Li Chongyi smiled slightly:
"Your Highness, you are joking. Speaking of the popular people around the Crown Prince, who is more popular than you, Your Highness? I am just a guard of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince heard that the prince was going to hold a shareholders' meeting, so he gave me half a day off to attend. I have to go back to work after noon."
Li Chongyi has been following the prince's side for many years and has become very calm and composed. His every move and gesture is quite similar to that of his father.
"So that's how it is. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is quite kind." Li Shen nodded.
Others didn't dare to respond.
Li Shen looked at the boy next to Li Hui, who was about twelve or thirteen years old and looked somewhat similar to Li Chongyi.
"Little Sanzi, why didn't I say hello when I saw my cousin?"
"Your Majesty...I...I have performed the greetings." The young man replied somewhat stiffly when he saw Li Shen. His name was Li Chongzhen, and he was the third son of Li Xiaogong.
Among these four people, Li Chongyi is Li Xiaogong's eldest son, Li Hui is the second son, and Li Chongzhen is the third son. Their father is Li Xiaogong.
Li Jingheng's father was King Jiangxia Li Daozon, and he was Li Daozon's eldest son.
He and Li Shen both have the same ancestor, Li Hu.
"Really? Why don't I remember it?" Li Shen finally met a younger brother than him, so naturally he had to tease him.
He is the tenth child, and this is only for males. If his sisters' ranking is added, Li Shen would be ranked outside the twentieth place, and his own sister is ranked as the twelfth princess.
So Li Shen felt that he was pitifully small.
After hearing this, Li Chongzhen quickly stood up and bowed solemnly to Li Shen: "Greetings, His Royal Highness Prince Ji."
"Hahahaha, sit down. Here is some juice. It's iced and delicious."
Li Shen laughed happily, and the others followed suit.
At Li Shen's eye signal, the maid stepped forward and poured Li Chongzhen a glass of cold drink.
Except for those used for drinking tea, almost all the cups in Prince Ji's mansion are glass cups, or colored glaze cups, which makes Li Chongzhen very curious.
In the Hejian Palace, colored glaze is a rare commodity. It is only used by his father. Even his brothers such as Li Chongyi do not have many.
Since he is so young, it is even more impossible for him to use a glass cup. I heard that this thing is very valuable and expensive.
"Why? Do you like this?" Li Shen asked when he saw that Li Chongzhen looked like he had never seen the world.
"This... looks good." Li Chongzhen didn't say he liked it, but looking at the colored drinks inside, he did like it a little.
"If you like it, just say so. When have men from the Li family ever been so shy? I'll give you a set as a gift from your cousin.
I'll let you see enough when I get back. Don't act like an inexperienced person and bring shame to our Li family."
Li Shen waved his hand and educated Li Chongzhen.
When Shi Tou saw Li Shen’s eyes, he immediately understood and turned around to walk out.
"Your Highness is really going to give me a set?" When Li Chongyi heard Li Shen say he would give him a set, his eyes widened in delight.
"Of course, how can I be false?" Li Shen nodded.
"Thank you for your reward, Your Highness." Li Chongzhen quickly stood up and saluted.
"Okay, don't be so happy. If someone sees us, they will think that the men of the Li family have never seen anything good.
You must remember that you are a member of the royal family. Don't lose face for the Li family. If anyone looks down on you in the Imperial College, beat him up.
Uncle Wang fought bravely all his life, you must not bring shame to his reputation.
I'll make you a gold brick later, and you can beat them to death with it." As a member of the Li family, I must protect the dignity of the Li family.
Li Shen is no exception. No matter whether it is the royal family or the clan members being bullied, Li Shen will never stand idly by.
Li Chongyi and Li Hui on the side couldn't help but twitch their lips after hearing this.
It is a good thing that Prince Ji taught Li Chong, but he should not take it too far and even use a gold brick to beat someone to death. Only Prince Ji could think of such a tyrannical method.
In order to prevent his third brother from being led astray by Prince Ji, Li Chongyi changed the subject and asked:
"Your Majesty, what is the purpose of this shareholders' meeting? It can't be just for football betting, right?"
“Football betting is only one aspect. There is another important thing. In recent years, I have discovered that these people have started to do nothing and idle away, returning to their original ways.
Moreover, some of them have evil intentions, do not obey me, and want to break free from my constraints.
So this time I need to have a good talk with them, and you guys should keep quiet when the time comes."
Speaking of business, Li Shen said seriously.
(The characters here are all real historical figures, not random people.
Some book friends also advised me to have surgery. I asked some people and they said it would take more than ten days to be discharged from the hospital.
And the pain is so severe that it will affect my renewal, so I decided to have conservative treatment. At least I can renew myself after a few days of pain. As long as I don't poop, it won't hurt that much.
I don't bleed.)
