Datang Hotel: The Leisurely Life of a Chef Dad

"Ah?" Yuan Tiangang was stunned.

"Then... Your Majesty knows that if you move your whole body and you move those people, they will definitely not let it go. Over the years, they have spread throughout the court through marriages, alliances, master-disciple relationships, etc."

Li Shimin rubbed his head. It would be a lie to say that he had no choice.

But it would be false to say that he has any solution at all.

At that time, he saw this opportunity. Li Shimin knew that if he had delayed two years and took advantage of this opportunity, he could kill all the famous families in one fell swoop.

But this time, it seems that I was hasty, careless, and did not think carefully. ✯

"Lao Yuan, you are a national teacher and a wise man. Tell me, what should I do?"

"National Preceptor? Lao Yuan?"

"Yuan Tiangang?"

At this time, Yuan Tiangang was leaning against the wall nearby, his whole body looking exhausted. A slight sound of breathing came from his mouth and nose, and his body slowly rose and fell with the rhythm of his breathing.

Li Shimin was speechless immediately.

At the critical moment, you actually fell asleep?

I'm waiting to hear your good news!

"Do you still want to ask Liu Xuan?"

…

In the backyard of Datang Hotel, Li Jing looked at Cheng Yaojin and the others, his face awkward, and then he cupped his hands and smiled: "It turns out that the three brothers have been here a long time ago."

Cheng Yaojin patted Li Jing's shoulder carelessly: "Li Jing, you are always so polite. You said that Yaya is also your goddaughter. Do you still need to queue up when you go to your family's house?"

"Come on, come on, Liu Xuan has been served to us just now, let's eat together."

Li Jing looked at the three of them and asked curiously: "You didn't pay?"

Upon hearing this, the atmosphere became quiet again.

"How is it possible? This guy Liu Xuan won't let go of a penny."

In the small room, several people sat together around Liu Xuan's latest earthen bed, laughing and chatting.

Qin Qiong also came, but when he came, his face was a little anxious.

For these people to gather together, something important must have happened.

Liu Xuan was also curious at the moment, but after thinking about it, he decided to forget it. Li Shimin might come over and talk about it later.

Changsun Ying and Li Yingzi are competing to chop firewood. When they meet their opponents, they will meet good talents. Even when they chop firewood, they can meet their confidants. This may be the unusual Tang Dynasty.

Fang Yiyu patiently counted the two of them. This time, Fang Yiyu seemed to have never missed a count.

At noon, when the last guest in the entire Datang Hotel left, heavy snow began to fall in the sky again.

"This year's snow is more intense than in previous years."

Li Shimin stood outside the Datang Hotel, looking at the smoke still coming from inside. He smiled and waved his hand, telling the guards around him to hide, while he waved his sleeves and walked inside.

Just as Liu Renyuan was about to close the door, he saw a person leaning in, and he immediately became unhappy: "Hey, wait a minute, it's closed. Tomorrow... it's you. Mr. Hou is inside."

Li Shimin nodded: "You kid, you haven't forgotten your roots."

Liu Renyuan quickly winked at Xue Rengui, who was confused. Xue Rengui was very sensible and took the fur that Li Shimin had taken off.

"Liu Xuan, I have something to ask you!" Li Shimin went straight to the topic as soon as he came up, without giving Liu Xuan any room to breathe.

"Let me ask you, what if many people and officials no longer work and Datang needs new talents?"

Liu Xuan had just finished washing his hands and was preparing lunch for Yaya and Da Zhuang when he was suddenly stopped by Li Shimin.

"Spend money and recruit people."

"What are they doing as officials? You don't think they are officials for the sake of the people, right?"

Liu Xuan said this with a joke, which seemed a bit frivolous, but no matter what Li Shimin thought, it seemed to be impeccable.

Yes, you said that there are officials who serve the world and the people. That is true. Li Shimin believes that there are such people.

But most people, most officials, are just trying to make a living.

"Are you serious? Do you know that many officials in the Tang Dynasty have retired recently? Why don't you find an official for you?"

Liu Xuan waved his hands repeatedly: "Old Li, go in quickly, there are several people inside."

"By the way, how are you doing with the wool thing? It won't have to be spring next year, right? If the grassland wants to be warm, it won't be until May or June at least."

Li Shimin immediately patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I've already found someone to do it."

At this time, the hut was already a little crowded with all the Tang Dynasty bosses gathering.

"Everyone, please tell me what to do."

Li Shimin finally spoke.

Cheng Yaojin looked at everyone, and finally his eyes focused on Li Jing.

After all, in their eyes, Li Jing was a man with great intelligence and force.

"Recruiting talents requires money."

"Your Majesty, it shouldn't be difficult to solve things that can be solved with money."

Li Jing remembered the helpless feeling he felt when he defected.

"Nowadays, there are many scholars and capable people in the world. Your Majesty, isn't Ma Zhou the best example?"

"Old Cheng, tell me." Li Jing turned to look at Cheng Yaojin.

Cheng Yaojin looked at Qin Qiong again: "Brother Qin, why don't you tell me?"

Qin Qiong sighed: "Your Majesty, how about I ask people to recommend you?"

Li Shimin has already thought of these two methods, but how much money does it cost?

Recommend? What kind of person should I recommend? What if it doesn't work?

"Hey, I've thought about it, and these methods are probably not enough."

A voice came from outside the door: "How about casting a golden platform?"

Fang Xuanling's voice came.

Today, Fang Xuanling saw the heavy snow falling, so he naturally came to pick up Fang Yiyu. As soon as he entered the door, he heard that many people were here.

Li Shimin felt more at ease when he saw Fang Xuanling.

The punishment for impulsiveness is that he must rack his brains today.

"Why are you guys so hesitant? Eat." Liu Xuan appeared with a smile and waved his hand. The maid behind him continued to bring up the dishes, and there were two porcelain bottles of wine on top, which was Erguotou.

"Drink some, it's so cold, drink more, and then we can talk."

"I have sent Da Zhuang and Ya Ya back, Miss Li and the others have also gone back, you can have fun here without worry."

"And Lao Li, what you said is not a big deal, think about it, you find someone to recommend, and if there is a problem, let him take responsibility, fine him, behead him, it's all fine, who dares to recommend randomly?"

"What about the imperial examination? I heard that there is an imperial examination? Wasn't it held last fall? Aren't there still papers? Isn't it okay to recruit people according to the ranking above!"

Li Shimin's heart was turbulent.

Yes, why didn't I think of it?

Recommendation is meritorious, but it can also be faulty. If the person you recommend gets into trouble, is dismissed, does not do his job well, or has problems, then you will also be responsible.

In this way, it can prevent people from messing around.

The most important thing is that the two words "imperial examination" directly lit the fire in Li Shimin's heart.
