Chapter 2336 Destroy it
When Shi Tou said fifty-seven years old, Li Shen had already ascended to heaven on the spot.
He was completely stunned, his mouth wide open, the only thing in his mind was his age of fifty-seven.
Li Shen knew that his salary had been deducted for many years, but he never thought that his salary would be deducted for so many years.
Didn’t you say that you can receive a salary when you are in your thirties?
He remembered that someone seemed to have told him this at some point.
But now they say that I can only receive my salary at the age of 57. Doesn’t that mean that my salary has been withheld for more than 60 years?
"Are you sure your calculation is correct?" Li Shen asked Shitou without giving up.
"Your Highness, this was registered with the Zongzheng Temple. It seems that the King of Hejian stopped registering it later." Shitou replied cautiously.
"what!!!"
"Have I violated the laws of heaven? Why are you treating me like this? I'm fifty-seven years old! I might not even live to that age."
Li Shen started yelling, venting the frustration in his heart.
Fifty-seven years old still has a record, but from what I heard, there are still some who don’t have a record. Does this mean that I want to delay my retirement?
Seeing Prince Ji's crazy look, Wang Xuance, Xue Rengui and Zhou Daowu looked at each other in surprise.
The most surprised person was Zhou Daowu. He had never expected that his brother-in-law had no salary at all.
As a prince of the Tang Dynasty, he had no salary and had to rely on himself to make a living.
Fortunately, Prince Ji was able to earn his own money, otherwise he would have to beg for food. Just how much trouble had Prince Ji caused to have his salary withheld for decades?
At this moment, Zhou Daowu was filled with surprise and curiosity.
Not to mention him, even Wang Xuance and Xue Rengui, the two giants of Ji Wang Mansion, were extremely shocked.
They had heard that Prince Ji's salary had been deducted, but they never expected it to be so much.
Over a few decades, that would be hundreds of thousands of strings of cash, an astronomical figure. Would Prince Ji be unable to pay out his salary because of this?
"Your Majesty, please calm down. In the past one or two years, Your Majesty has been fining people's salaries for three years at a time, and once for six years.
Therefore, the salary is increasing faster. Otherwise, Your Highness would have received his salary by the age of 45."
Shi Tou hurried to comfort him.
"Get out of here! What do you mean you're getting a salary at forty-five? I was already half buried in the ground by forty-five.
This prince simply made a mistake common to all nobles in the world. Why should I be singled out for punishment?"
Li Shen glared at Shi Tou. This little follower was too bad at talking.
"Yes, yes, Your Highness is right." Shitou apologized quickly. The current King Ji was already in a violent state and could explode at any time. He should stay away from the current King Ji.
"I lived and died for the court, but in the end, I got such a tragic ending. How sad, how sad, how lamentable!!"
Li Shen suddenly became sad, and he finally understood the feelings of the Yang family generals at that time.
He was loyal to the emperor and his country, and was devoted to His Majesty, but he ended up like this, which made him disappointed and sad.
"Go prepare three feet of white silk for me. I will return to Chang'an City and hang myself on the Vermillion Bird Gate.
I will be the first prince in the Tang Dynasty to be forced to death.
This king will be recorded in history and be despised by future generations."
Li Shen wanted to die. Even if he died, he would not let his father have an easy time. He had to make him be infamous for eternity.
"Your Highness, this is absolutely not possible." Shi Tou hurried forward to dissuade him.
"Why not? My lifelong wish is to receive a salary and eat the emperor's food. But now it seems so far away, and there is no hope at all.
What's the point of me living? Maybe I can reincarnate as soon as possible and pass the imperial examination in eighteen years, which would make up for the regrets of this life."
Li Shen became more and more sad as he spoke, and he was filled with grief.
His biggest wish was to receive his salary, and he waited for ten years. Everyone has a moment of persistence in their life.
Li Shen’s obsession is salary. It is not about money, but an obsession.
Many people would not understand why Li Shen, who is so rich, is still obsessed with salary. Only Li Shen knows that what he gets is what he misses the most.
Wang Xuance and the other two stared blankly at the master and servant collecting treasures, and no one said anything to persuade them.
They have become accustomed to this kind of scene, which happens from time to time.
Every time Prince Ji would be furious, but he would be fine after he had vented his anger.
"Humph, I was wondering why he was so generous this time, increasing the fief by ten thousand households and tripling the rice allowance, but it turns out he still wants to get it for free.
How can someone be so stingy? Even if they reward him with 8 million, it would be fine."
Li Shen snorted coldly and complained.
Suddenly he came to the desk, picked up the letter he had just written to his father, read it, crumpled it into a ball and threw it on the ground.
Even stepped on it twice:
"I really misunderstood you. How could I have thought so well of you?"
He was quite touched just now that his father finally showed mercy, but he didn't expect that he was so cunning.
After venting all his anger, Li Shen finally got tired and climbed onto the couch and lay down.
"Your Highness, Xizhou Prefecture has already purchased a thousand sheep and thirty cows as requested by you. They are now being raised beneath the city walls. I wonder how you will arrange this?"
Seeing that Li Shen had calmed down, Xue Rengui stepped forward to report.
"You can do whatever you want. I don't care. Let them all be destroyed."
Li Shen spoke weakly, his eyes looking at the ceiling. He was tired.
"Then I will distribute the sheep to the palace soldiers. I wonder if Your Highness has any other instructions?"
Xue Rengui said directly that this was agreed upon before. Li Shen bought these livestock to reward the soldiers who followed him to the border.
The rest was reserved as food for the guard camp.
"You can do whatever you want. I don't have any instructions. You can all go down."
Li Shen waved his hands. There is no greater sorrow than a dead heart. Li Shen's heart is already dead.
He is fifty-seven years old, and this is under the condition that he promises not to make mistakes again, but Li Shen himself is not sure about such a promise.
I am only twenty years old. By the time I am thirty, will my salary have been deducted for hundreds of years? When I go to the underworld, I will have to wait until all the deductions are made before I can be reincarnated.
"Yes, I obey your command." Xue Rengui bowed decisively and then withdrew. At this time, he had nothing to say to Prince Ji.
"Your Highness, our cotton mill has been fully operational, but the farm that Your Highness wants to build has only been built a little bit before it stopped.
It is estimated that construction will not resume until next year.
"Your Highness, would you like to visit the workshop?" Wang Xuance asked.
Now that Xizhou has no chief manager, Wang Xuance began to act as the temporary chief manager, mainly accepting some reports and then reporting to King Ji.
"Well, I understand. I'll go check it out in a couple of days. You go to Xizhou Prefecture and inspect it to see if there are any omissions in the past month.
Also, write a letter to Wang Hongfu and ask him to find a suitable manager as soon as possible. It has been so long, is there no suitable candidate?
How did he become the head shopkeeper? If you can’t find out, then let him come here himself.”
Li Shen gets angry whenever this is mentioned. It's been almost a year, and no one has been found yet.
(The editor asked me if there were any golden lines in the novel, and I didn’t think there were any.
Please help me find it.)
