Chapter 507: The Banquet

I don't know how long I sat down, the noise in Liu Qingxi's house gradually became smaller, and the master and his subordinates slowly went back to the room to rest a little before he got up and went back to Haowang's mansion.

At this time, the sky is exposed to the white of the fish's belly, and the reflection of the snow on both sides of the road makes the sky look brighter.

On the street on the first day of the Lunar New Year, it is still early, and the people who greet the New Year have not yet gone out, and a long black figure walks aimlessly, and there is only this lonely figure on the long street.

Suddenly, a burst of firecrackers rang out, startling Dugu Hao's thoughts, his pace quickened, and he returned to the room while the guards in the house were at the most chaotic time.

This night, no one knew that Dugu Hao had gone out, and this night, no one knew that he had sat on the roof of a certain house all night.

Half an hour later, the sky was bright, and the sound of firecrackers showed that people had gotten up.

Liu Qingxi's family, yesterday stayed up all night, although the spirit is not very good, but the mood is very good, Liu Qingxi took Liu Qingyan, sister and brother from the depths of the alley to go out, door to door to visit the New Year.

"Auntie, have a good New Year! I wish you younger and younger. ”

"Miss Liu just can talk, and the New Year is good. The woman was praised by Liu Qingxi and smiled, which woman doesn't like others to praise her youth?

"Happy New Year, Uncle!"

。。。。。。

Along the way, Liu Qingxi said auspicious words all the way, and they were in a good mood for the New Year, and they also received many blessings.

When I came back from a New Year's greeting, it had already passed half an hour, and I played almost all night last night, and now the people in the yard looked sleepy, and there were no relatives who needed to walk around for New Year's greetings, so Liu Qingxi went back to sleep directly.

In the next few days, Liu Qingxi and Wen began to prepare for dinner.

During the Chinese New Year, almost every family will take turns to set up a banquet at home and invite relatives and friends to join the excitement.

When he was in the countryside, Liu Qingxi did a lot of this kind of thing, and the people invited were also well-connected, such as the village chief's family, Zhang Sanyou's family, and so on.

They are all from the village, they are used to living a hard life, as long as the food is more oil, water, and meat, no one will be picky, and they can eat several bowls.

After coming to the capital, it was a little different, and with all these years of hard work, there was no shortage of money in hand, and the meals prepared this time were very exquisite.

Aunt Xu and Aunt Ye took out their housekeeping skills, and of course Yang Yichen and their two cooks.

Don't look at it as just a meal, but it can't stand the crowd, this street is from the inside out, more than a dozen families, even if the family population is small, there are five or six, of course, there are a few families who live together.

So this time, there are almost 80 people, which is not a small number.

After three days, on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, a few cooks began to prepare, chicken, duck and fish, as well as steaming and the like, and a few little maids who were outside the four cooks were stunned to prepare for three days.

On the fourth day, that is, the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, it is the time for Liu Qingxi to feast on the neighbors.

Early in the morning, Liu Qingxi opened the vermilion gate, put a firecracker, and opened the door to welcome guests.

The first to come was Zhou, who was the most familiar person with Liu Qingxi in the alley.

As soon as she entered the door, she let out her unique loud voice: "Miss Liu, I'm here, happy New Year, I wish you all the best in the new year and smooth business!"

Behind her, followed by Zheng Hao, who was working in the grain store, and beside her were two children.

Liu Qingxi came out to greet him for the first time: "Thank you, sister-in-law Zhou, happy new year, Wishing you prosperity!"

"But isn't it, Miss Liu, your Wishing you prosperity should be given to yourself the most, aren't we all following you to get rich?"

At this moment, another woman came in: "Zheng family, you are not wrong, just say that last year, in just over a month, we can all make a small profit, after a fat year, Miss Liu, I have to thank you." ”

"Auntie, what's polite, it's all what I should do, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to win the game with Lin Shuhong, it's all the credit of everyone's hard work day and night." ”

I have to say that Liu Qingxi's modest words made the few women who came in later feel comfortable listening to it.

Liu Qingxi continued: "This year, the weather is warm, and I have to rely on the help of a few aunts, sisters-in-law, uncles and brothers." ”

"Hey, don't look at Miss Liu looking young, what are you doing here, it looks reliable, needless to say, we will all follow you. ”

To tell the truth, the people who live in this alley are not rich and noble, and there are not many people with a skill, and most of them are still working as coolies or something.

Compared with a small place like Linyi County, there is no shortage of work to do in the capital, but it is just as tiring.

After following Liu Qingxi for more than a month, life was not to mention how good it was, eating and drinking well, and working every day was not long: "Miss Liu, will you continue to build a house after the New Year?"

Question: This is the aunt who came after the Zhou family, she is very concerned about Liu Qingxi's arrangements this year, and she has long been ready to seize the opportunity, and even wants to take her two brothers with her.

I'm not afraid that there won't be so many people, and the big words left by my mother's house will be slapped in the face.

After Liu Qingxi heard this, he smiled and promised: "Of course, what I said will naturally be counted, if there is any honest and capable person to introduce you aunts and sisters-in-law, it will be great." ”

Taking advantage of the idle time before the year, Liu Qingxi went to the outskirts of the capital to look at the land several times, and took a fancy to a place near the north city gate.

When she first entered Beijing, she noticed that large open space, only to learn later that there was almost no food produced there, and over time it was deserted.

It just so happens that the soil is relatively hard, and there is no need to worry about the loose soil when building a house, resulting in uneven settlement of the foundation.

I thought I would be able to buy it a few years ago, but who knew that it coincided with the turmoil between the DPRK and China at that time, and at that juncture, I naturally didn't dare to mention the purchase of that piece of land.

But now, the weather is still cold, and it is freezing badly outside, so it's not a good time to build a house.

By the way, take advantage of this gap to take down the ground, recruit manpower, and start construction immediately after the beginning of spring.

Originally, in the capital, where every inch of land is valuable, it is inevitable that a huge amount of money will be spent to build a large-scale building like Shilipu.

And in the past few years of hard work, Liu Qingxi has made a lot of money, but he has also spent a lot, even if he drains his pockets, it is not enough to support the community in the capital.

But what about someone who just fell asleep and someone sent a pillow, wouldn't it be a loss if you didn't grasp it well?

If Lin Shuhong knew Liu Qingxi's thoughts at this moment, he would definitely want to slap himself twice.

Originally, the purpose of the plan was to ruin Liu Qingxi's reputation, but in the end, stealing chickens did not lead to rice, but gave the opponent a good opportunity.

Let Liu Qingxi take advantage of the gambling game to make a lot of money, no, the start-up capital is there!
