Zhou Gui knows this person, Guan Yuchun, the director of the Chang'an West Municipal Bureau.

The two Beijing Municipal Bureaus are under their control, and above them is the household department, with Jinbu Langzhong and Yuanwailang, who are in charge of various markets in the entire Tang Dynasty.

On weekdays, whoever comes to sell vegetables will send some vegetables to Guan Yuchun and others.

The officials under Guan Yuchun's management took it from other people's vegetable stalls, this one took a cucumber, and that one took a few spinach.

Just take it home enough to eat, but don't dare to eat more.

The vegetable seller doesn't say anything, just take it.

The stall they took the most was actually the vegetables from the greenhouse vegetable sales stall that Li Zhuangzi cooperated with others outside.

They know in their hearts that if someone else's own greenhouse vegetables, take a cucumber, a lot of money, what should the other party do if they want to sue the official?

So take a celery, or a few spinach, and the other party acquiesces.

If you want to take cucumbers and eggplants, find a partner of Li Zhuangzi.

In the end, it will be converted into the account of the Li family Zhuangzi, and Li Dongzhu will not be as knowledgeable as himself and others.

They usually take it at night, and the vegetables are sold for a day, and they are picked to be ungood-looking, and they take them home and cook a meal, and the people in the family are happy.

Of course, taking people's money and eliminating disasters with people, what activities does the Li family Zhuangzi have, he has to help.

Guan Yuchun took the vegetables on Zhou Guizhuangzi, and just looked at it in his eyes, there was no way, the court didn't give an order, he could only look at it.

If the imperial court had an order not to allow the circulation of evil money, he directly blocked it, and he didn't dare to arrest people, he inquired about the people behind Jiang Hui.

In fact, Jiang Hui bragged about it, saying that he was a relative of Tai Changqing and had a good relationship with Prince Zhongyun.

"Thank you Guan Cheng, but the owner of my family let me sell it." Zhou Gui looked helpless.

I took more than a dozen cucumbers, wrapped them in raw-edged paper, and stuffed them to Guan Yuchun: "Guan Cheng worked hard." ”

Guan Yuchun hesitated for a moment and took the thing.

lowered his voice: "Go and find a way, that person's name is Jiang Hui, behind him is Taichangqing Jiang Jiao, and he has a good relationship with the crown prince Zhongyun Li Linfu."

In addition, Jiang Jiao's younger brother Jiang Hui is a Zhongcheng in the imperial history, and he is in-law with Jingzhao Yin Yuan Qianyao, so I didn't say anything. ”

With that, he left with the cucumber in his arms.

Zhou Guihan came out, oh my God, is the Jiang family so powerful behind it?

It's over, the proprietor of your own house is finished, the proprietor wow, no matter how powerful you are, can you beat these people?

He brought people in and set up stalls, and rich people came to buy them and gave money.

Before the time came, Zhou Gui listlessly returned to Zhuangzi with more than 300 yuan.

"Steward Zhou is back? Hurry up and eat, the proprietor and the little lady have eaten, and the guards have also eaten, we are waiting for you. ”

Li An came over and said to Zhou Gui that the meal he had at noon was now an hour late.

"Eat, and I'll go to the proprietor." Zhou Gui didn't have the heart to eat, he wanted to persuade the proprietor to sell the land.

"Proprietor, I have inquired about the other party's situation."

Zhou Gui glanced at Princess Yongmu, who was practicing calligraphy, and said to Xiaolan who was serving beside him.

"Who's home?" Xiaolan asked in passing.

"It's too big, Jiang Jiao's distant relative, called Jiang Hui."

Zhou Guiti is alone, he feels that one person is enough, enough for the Zhuangzi where he is located.

"It turned out to be Jiang Jiao? Li Linfu's uncle, Jiang Hui's brother, and Yuan Qianyao's in-laws.

It's so powerful, they joined forces to buy my 100 acres of land at a cheap price, I'm afraid.

Little lady, let's just give the land to Yuan Qianyao, he just came down from the position of prime minister, and he is in a bad mood. ”

After Xiaolan finished speaking, she couldn't help but laugh and looked very happy.

Zhou Gui: "......"

He admits that he is confused, and the proprietor knows about their relationship? But why is it so casual? directly said that Yuan Qianyao was taken as prime minister.

"Don't laugh, it's not good to get out. They must not know, Jiang Hui...... Self-righteous, huh! "Princess Yongmu doesn't have to think about it at all.

"Steward Zhou, go sell it again before dark, eat something to cushion your stomach." Xiaolan instructed Zhou Gui.

The maid next to her came and brought a tray with walnuts, pine nuts, large hazelnuts, sugar-fried chestnuts, and a tong that could pinch hazelnuts and pine nuts.

Zhou Gui was indeed hungry, and seeing that the proprietor didn't plan to call himself to eat, he grabbed two handfuls of big hazelnuts and pine nuts, picked up the pliers and ran out.

Greeting, he continued to pick vegetables, and he stood outside the greenhouse blowing the cold wind to eat dried fruits.

Li An's family didn't wait for him anymore and cooked by themselves.

"What proprietor did I meet?" Zhou Gui threw a pine nut kernel in his mouth and muttered while chewing.

A high-ranking official, he felt that he couldn't bear any of them.

As a result, Xiaoniang is still practicing calligraphy quietly, the proprietor Xiaolan doesn't care, is it an ignorant and fearless?

"I'm afraid it's not the daughter of a prince, county lord? The little lady is the county lord? Niangdi, the county lord ran out to open Zhuangzi? ”

Zhou Gui began to analyze, he didn't dare to think about the princess at all.

There is only one princess who matches the age of the little lady, the eldest princess.

But will the eldest princess run out? Will people be bullied to this extent?

Until the vegetables were loaded again and ready to be shipped away to sell, Zhou Gui didn't understand the identity of his proprietor.

The only thing that is certain is that those big officials are not directly involved, and the people behind the proprietor are not afraid of the Jiang family's power.

The third batch of vegetables was sent over, and it was soon bought by the rich people with bad money.

Zhou Gui came back with money when it was dark, and his spirit was a little trance.

When I entered the courtyard, I found that there were two more cooks, and the meal was ready.

Li An's mother-in-law, Li Shi, looked excited, greeted Zhou Gui, and whispered: "There are two new cooks, the cooking is delicious, allow me to learn from the side, and say that they will leave when I learn it." ”

Li was still very vigilant when she first saw the two people, afraid of being robbed of her job, and when the other party said that she was teaching, she took her daughter to learn with her.

Zhou Gui washed his hands with soap, tasted the food, his eyes lit up, and it was really delicious.

Looking at the dish next to it, I was shocked, fried shrimp with peas.

"Where did the peas come from? The greenhouses on the farm have not been planted. Zhou Gui asked Li An, who was eating together.

Li An shook his head: "I don't know, the two new cooks brought it, they don't say their identity, and we don't dare to ask more." ”

"Don't worry, don't be afraid, the surname Jiang is ...... Hehe! Zhou Gui himself put his mind at ease first.

With so many mirrors, kerosene lamps, and hot water bottles, you can know that the identity of the person behind the proprietor is not ordinary.

Eating fresh peas in the winter is not available on the market.

Stir-fried shrimp with peas can only be eaten in summer and autumn.

No one has planted peas in the greenhouse, and now you can eat green peas that are not dry and soaked, which is called heritage.

Can the surname Jiang eat it? Why are you bullying my Zhuangzi if you can't eat it?

Li An's family of five nodded, they felt like a dream now.

When the proprietor did not return, they were so frightened that they did not even want to do it, and they did not want to pay for it.

When the proprietor came back, he hurriedly signed a death deed and saw something he shouldn't have seen.

With and without a proprietor, life is different, and the mood is different.

Now I'm learning the rules from the maids, and the maids don't seem to have been cultivated by ordinary people.

"Li An, learn to read and write, you husband and wife and three children, all learn." Zhou Gui ate a few bites of food and said to the five people.

"After signing the death contract, is it still useful to learn?" Li An looked at his thirteen-year-old son.
