Chapter 69: Li Ke asks for help

In the early morning, in a daze, Yi Fan heard a few sounds of insects that shouldn't have appeared in this season.

Winter is a time for lazy beds. Even if you are awakened, Yi Fan is unwilling to get up.

However, Yi Fan was finally quarreled by Yi Yun's knock on the door. After washing up, Yi Fan came to the study room, and Yi Yun had already been waiting here.

Yi Yun closed the door and said to Yi Fan: "Brother, I just received the news that it was snowing heavily last night, and three of my men had frozen to death. Some of the houses in Chang'an City that had been disrepaired for a long time were also crushed by heavy snow, and countless casualties were killed or injured. Now many people are homeless.

The Cui Bao, the Chang'an County Government, has not made any moves. Brother, can we take advantage of this matter and see if we can remove Cui Bao's official position?"

Yi Fan pondered: "You can do this by yourself, and then get some worn clothes for your men."

"Yes, brother."

Seeing that the conversation was over, Yi Yun was about to leave the study room. Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened the door, he saw Li Ke raise his hand and be about to knock on the door, with twin maids following behind him.

Yi Yun greeted Li Ke and said, "I have met His Highness the King of Wu."

Li Ke waved impatiently and went straight into the study, while the twin maids stood sideways on both sides of the door.

"Ping An, I have something to tell you."

Yi Fan didn't expect that Li Ke would come to him so early.

"What's the matter? Tell me."

Li Ke took off his outer robe, threw it aside, lowered his head and placed his hands on the stove to bake, which was also a kettle with a white breath on the stove.

While baking his hands, Li Ke said embarrassedly: "I want to take out our clothes that cannot be sold to the people who are affected by the disaster in Chang'an City so that they can survive this winter. Although those clothes are a little thinner, they are better than nothing."

Yi Fan looked at Li Ke unexpectedly and asked, "Why?"

It’s not that Yi Fan doesn’t believe that Li Ke will have such kindness. If he just wants to give clothes to the people who have suffered from snow disasters, Li Ke just needs to send someone to say it.

There is no need to wait for the warm bed in the middle of winter, but you have to come to find yourself in person in the wind and snow. There must be something else in it.

Li Ke took his hands away from the stove, then covered his cold cheeks and mouth and nose with his hot roasted hands, and said in a muffled voice.

"Early early this morning, my uncle came to my mansion in the cold and told me that this snow disaster was an opportunity for me.

Because I gave him a set of cotton clothes and pants I made in the past two days, he knew that I was opening a ready-to-wear shop with you.

He asked me to give the clothes that I could not sell to the affected people for free so that I could gain a good reputation.

He also said that you are good at this matter, so I will come to you for negotiation."

Yi Fan was stunned and said, "When did I be good at giving things to others?"

Li Keyu complained: "If my uncle hadn't pointed it out today, I wouldn't have known it. I'm afraid there are still many people in the dark today.

You first sold the cooking method to major merchants in Chang'an City at a low price of 100% so that the people in Chang'an City can eat your new cooking.

The best thing about this is that you sell the cooking method to many merchants instead of one or two, which will inevitably lead to competition among them, and the price of cooking will only get lower and lower.

In this way, ordinary people can also eat your new cooking. Do you think those people who have tasted new cooking for the first time will be grateful to you in their hearts?”

Yi Fan's mouth opened slightly and his eyes widened, looking at Li Ke, obviously surprised. When he heard Li Ke's question, Yi Fan wiped the corner of his mouth without a trace and put away his ignorant expression.

Seeing that Yi Fan did not answer, Li Ke said to himself: "It's a good thing I thought you were forced to sell the recipe for cooking. It turned out that you were already planning it at that time.

You must have expected that the price of cooking will drop, and then you will use the excuse of being hot and poisonous to stop selling cooking, and switch to selling ice cream.

He then won the title of a little god with his magical ice making technique, and then he used the Taoist sect to give Chang'an people free ice water to drink in the hot and hot summer.

Those people who drink free ice water thank the Taoist sect while thanking the Taoist sect, wouldn’t they thank you for your selfless teaching the art of ice making to the Taoist sect?

There are also these tables, chairs and benches. You can place them openly in the heaven and earth. As long as an ordinary farmer takes a few glances, he can imitate them. Wouldn't those who imitate your tables, chairs and benches benches be grateful to you when using these things?

Finally, you were in the battle between Buddhism and Taoism and treated the disease with the old immortal Sun, and finally showed off your life and pushed your reputation to the peak."

Speaking of this, Li Ke grabbed the kettle on the stove, added a little hot to his already a little cold tea bowl, took a big sip, and then looked at Yi Fan with a look that I had seen through you.

Yi Fan scratched his head embarrassedly, "Is the person you just mentioned me?" Yi Fan pointed at his nose with his index finger, looking disbelief.

Li Ke put down the tea bowl and saw Yi Fan still pretending to be stupid, so he simply said, "Today, you must help me improve my reputation among the people of Chang'an no matter what.

Let me tell you the truth, I am very dangerous now, I urgently need to improve my strength, and this reputation is a kind of strength.

The last time you took action against you, Fuguilou and Tingfenglou, were the people of Prince Li Chengqian and the people of King Li Tai of Wei.

They attacked you because I had contacted you, so this time you helped me, which was like helping me to avenge yourself.”

Yi Fan suddenly stood up from the chair, pointed at Li Ke and said, "Damn it, did you implicate me in love last time?"

Li Ke nodded embarrassedly.

"Then you are asking for help this time? Aren't you here to frame me again? Didn't I offend a prince and a prince if I help you?"

Yi Fan was really angry this time. No matter which of these two people, they are all things that Yi Fan cannot afford to be provoked by him. It seems that it is really difficult to survive in this world.

Seeing that Yi Fan seemed to be really angry, Li Ke had to say, "Now you and I are grasshoppers on the same rope. From the moment I contact you, the prince and the King of Wei have already regarded you and me as a group, so it is too late for you to get out of here."

Yi Fan sat back on the chair with a little depressed look, closed his eyes, and began to ponder.

He thought to himself: "As Li Ke said, I am now tied to Li Ke in the eyes of others and can no longer separate my relationship.

Unless you leave everything in Chang'an City, take people away from the Tang Dynasty, or live in seclusion in the mountains, you will not talk about these two difficulties, but you will be reluctant to leave if you leave the industry in Chang'an City.

It seems that Chang'an City is not very safe, so you have to make some preparations in advance."

Thinking of this, Yi Fan raised a fierce smile on the corner of his mouth, slapped the table, and said, "Don't do it, even if you are the prince and the prince, I, Yi Fan, will play with a mantis arm as a chariot."
