As soon as Li Bai's short song came out, no one among the young talents at the banquet said they wanted to compose poetry. ≥ ≦ Fortunately, the banquet is here and it is time to end, otherwise the atmosphere afterwards would be a bit awkward.
"Elder Ye's calligraphy treasure, I don't know what his plans are..." After the banquet, Prince Li Haoyuan suddenly asked. In fact, the intention of asking for it was already obvious.
However, Ye Zan pretended not to understand, turned to look at the third prince Li Haoran, then looked at the little girl Li Yun, and said with a smile: "Yun'er researched the ink for me, so I will give this short song line to Yun." Let’s do it as a reward, I hope Yun’er won’t dislike it.”
Although this is not a love poem, it is a poem written by my uncle after all. How many people in the Yuqing Sect can receive poems from their uncle? When Li Yun heard this, she suddenly showed a bit of surprise and said quickly: "I don't mind it! No, thank you, great uncle."
"Haha, that's right, it's true that only my little sister is worthy of Elder Ye's poem." Li Haoyuan did not show any displeasure, but nodded in praise.
After the banquet was over, the young talents dispersed, but the crown prince Li Haoyuan and the second prince Li Haomin did not leave immediately, indicating that they wanted to discuss something with Ye Zan.
After the remaining seats were removed, the waiters from Tianxiang Pavilion relocated a few tables, and then made fragrant tea for everyone. Ye Zan and the others sat down again.
After the waiter left, Prince Li Haoyuan did not beat around the bush and asked straight to the point: "Elder Ye, I heard from my father that this time you and I, Datang, are going to cooperate to establish a chamber of commerce called Datang Communications?"
"Yes, strictly speaking, we are cooperating with the Royal Family of the Tang Dynasty." Ye Zan nodded, then turned to the second prince Li Haomin and said: "I also left the refining method of Qianli Sound Transmission and the base station to the king. , if you, Qingyue Sword Sect, are interested, you can also ask the country for a copy."
"Elder Ye can make the decision for Yu Qingzong?" Li Haomin was a little surprised. After all, in this world, there are not many people who are willing to reveal their technology. What's more, he has also learned about this communication plan. If this thing is really implemented, it will be absolutely terrible. I don’t know what it is like as a practitioner, but it is definitely a huge way to make money in the secular world.
Of course, it is a huge source of wealth. Think about the communication companies in the technological world of the earth age, which one is not extremely rich. Especially those so-called national communication companies, with various packages that are so popular that you can spend a lot of money and think you are taking advantage.
Ye Zan smiled and said: "What's the matter? I wish more sects would participate so that people in the entire Shenhua Domain can communicate without hindrance. This is a great merit."
Merit is just something Ye Zan uses as an excuse now. But in fact, he himself didn't know how much benefit he would bring to himself in the end by doing these things.
"So, can I really report back to the sect?" Li Haomin still didn't believe it, fearing that Ye Zan was testing him.
"Haha," Ye Zan laughed in amusement, shook his head and said, "Second prince, don't worry too much, I can't afford to pay such a high price just to target anyone."
Prince Li Haoyuan listened for a while and then said: "I have seen Elder Ye's plan. I am deeply impressed by the details of the plan. However, this Datang Communication will definitely become the largest chamber of commerce in Datang in the future, and its influence is huge. , I’m afraid even the imperial court will be inferior.”
Obviously, Li Haoyuan knew that Ye Zan suggested that the third prince be in charge of Datang's communications, and he couldn't help but overthink it.
Although Li Haoyuan is now the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, looking at the body of the country's leader Li Shude, especially with the adjustment of Ye Zan's two pills, it may not be a problem to live for another forty or fifty years. And this also means that his position as prince is not very stable. As long as he does not ascend the throne for a day, there will be changes.
However, when Datang Communications really rolls out the communication system, the size of Datang Communications will be unimaginable. As the person in charge of Datang Communications, the status of the third prince Li Haoran will also reach a level that can threaten the position of the prince.
Thinking of this, even Li Haoran next to him couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. If it really comes to that point, even if he himself is not interested in the throne, he will inevitably be suspected. In the end, he will either really compete for the throne, or wait for the prince to be removed after he ascends the throne. In fact, let alone waiting for the prince to ascend the throne, I am afraid that Li Shude will already be afraid of him before that time.
"Well, Elder Ye, it seems that I am indeed not suitable to host Datang Communications." Li Haoran smiled bitterly and secretly cursed himself for agreeing so happily yesterday. Didn't he think about the consequences? Now, if I continue to refuse like this, I am afraid I will offend Elder Ye again.
"The prince is overthinking. Datang Communications is just a chamber of commerce. If you are afraid that it will become too big, you can split it up. For example, if you divide it from the north to the south, you can split it into two chambers of commerce, and if you divide it by the state capital, it can be further split. Only However, in the early days of establishment, in order to unify resources, it was necessary to establish a separate company. Once everything is built, the only thing left for Datang Communications is to maintain the equipment and collect fees, and the split will not have much impact. "Listen. Seeing the prince's worries, Ye Zan immediately thought of China's method of splitting up state-owned communication companies in the ancient earth era.
"Split it?" Li Haoyuan fell into deep thought for a moment.
In fact, no matter how good a communications company is, it is just a communications company. Maybe in this world, equipment everywhere needs some force to protect it, but as the saying goes, political power comes from the barrel of a gun. Who can sit in that position ultimately depends on whose hand the handle of the knife is.
"It's true that I've been worrying too much," Li Haoyuan seemed to have figured it out, and suddenly seemed a little more relieved, and said to Li Haoran: "Third brother, there is no need to worry, just establish the Datang Communication. If you need anything, just come." Find me."
Afterwards, after chatting for a while, Li Haoyuan and Li Haomin stood up to say goodbye and left Tianxiang Pavilion. As for whether Li Haomin would immediately take the refining information and report it to the Qingyue Sword Sect, that was his business.
In the attic, Li Haoran was still a little hesitant. Although Ye Zan gave the method of splitting it, he still felt that Datang Communications was a bit like a hot potato.
"Third Prince, do you want to practice Taoism?" Ye Zan suddenly asked.
Prince Li Haoyuan did not practice Taoism in order to be able to ascend the throne and sit in the palace in the future and become the Ninth Five Supreme Being favored by God. But the reason why the third prince, Li Haoran, did not practice Taoism was because he did not have the qualifications to practice.
Hearing Ye Zan's question, Li Haoran was stunned for a moment, then showed a bitter look on his face and said: "I'm not afraid of Elder Ye's jokes. I'm not greedy for worldly pleasures, nor do I covet the throne. It's just that this body has long been proven to be incapable of cultivation, even for refining Qi." cannot be reached.”
