Chapter 103: Quartz Jie's Change?
In the end, the two vetoed this idea, although the road is not far, but it is still a little unrealistic to transfer more than 20 people to Luoyang! After all, Chang'an's shops still need someone to take care of them!
The doctor of the store has found it, and this manager ...... If you want to cultivate it again, it will take time and effort! In the end, the two decided to dig into the wall...... Digging up other people's shop clerks and the like, in the teaching system by Li Ke and Bai Yurou......
As for the matter of finding experienced employees, Li Ke handed it over to Bai Yurou and asked her to bring some guards to deal with it! For Li Ke, the safety of his own woman is not comparable to that of the shop......
Li Ke ordered the guards to go to Shiquanhai Mansion and ask him how the matter of Quartz Jie was going! Soon after, the guards came to the Li Mansion with Quartz Jie......
"Master Li!"
Quartz Jie is now like a different person, and he no longer has the decadence and sluggishness of a rich son, but has become radiant! Quite a scholar......
"It's coming!? Have a seat! ”
Quartz Jie did not pretend to push, but sat down calmly......
Li Ke poured himself and Quartz Jie a cup of tea, Quartz Jie hurriedly got up to hold the cup, Li Ke said with a smile: "I called you today, you should know what is going on, right?" ”
"Subordinate provinces! Naturally, it's the matter of buying land? I don't know if my subordinates are right? ”
Li Ke watched Quartz Jie drinking tea, and when he heard the other party say this, he said with a smile: "Hahaha...... Yes, you're right! It's rare that you can still remember! Seeing that you are full of confidence and look like you are in control, you must have done a good job on this errand? ”
"Hey...... How dare your subordinates forget what your subordinates have ordered? Don't worry, the land you want to buy, your subordinates have already bought it, so you are waiting for your adult to come and count it......"
After Quartz Jie finished speaking with a smile, Li Ke suddenly asked with a serious face: "Is there any coercion?" ”
The main reason is that Li Ke was afraid that Quartz Jie would threaten the people with force, so he bought the land, if this is the case...... Li Ke doesn't mind teaching Quartz Jie a hard lesson again!
Quartz Jie suddenly stretched out his right hand and raised it above his head! said loudly with a solemn face: "I, Quartz Jie, dare to swear to the sky......"
"That's it! This official teased you, you still take it seriously! Li Ke stopped him from swearing with a smile, and said, "Tell me about the land you bought, where is it?" ”
"Nanshi is in 3, there are a few families! Because there is no queen, and the old age is unable to cultivate, the land has been abandoned for a long time and overgrown with weeds! Speaking of this, Quartz Jie listened a lot, and Li Ke, who looked like he wanted to speak and stopped, was puzzled for a while!
"What's wrong? Keep talking! ”
Quartz Jie suddenly saluted Li Ke and said, "Please forgive me!" ”
Li Ke asked suspiciously, "What are you guilty of?" Could it be ...... Your previous oath was a lie? But Li Ke immediately thought, this is also unlikely?
Quartz Jie hesitated for a while, and finally muttered: "The words of the subordinates are not false at all, but they ...... It's just that the subordinates didn't have the consent of the adults, so they privately agreed to some things for these people......"
"Oh? That's kind of interesting, let's say! What's the matter? Li Ke took a sip of tea, put down the teacup and muttered.
"In fact, these old people only sell an acre of land for 2 taels of silver! Subordinate...... The subordinates saw that these old people were extremely pitiful, so they promised to give them two bags every time the grain was ripe......" After Quartz Jie's finished speaking, he saw that Li Ke did not speak, but tasted tea lightly!
He thought that Li Ke should be very angry in his heart now, so he was so frightened that he quickly knelt down and said, "Subordinate...... The subordinates know that they should not make their own decisions, and they should ask for the consent of the adults......"
"Poof...... Hahaha! ”
Just when Quartz Jie was extremely remorseful, he found that Li Ke suddenly burst out laughing, and hurriedly asked, "My lord...... It's ......"
"You boy! Do a good deed, how can this official embarrass you? And will you be punished for your sins? Get up! Li Ke shook his head, helpless! What's even more helpless is that these words were definitely not come up by this quartz jie himself, there must be someone behind it......
As for the person behind this, he must be an old fritter of officialdom! But who can help him? This person must be his father, Luoyang County Ling Shi Quanhai! Only Shi Quanhai, the old fritter, can think of it......
"My lord, is this a crime that does not cure his subordinates?" Quartz Jie couldn't believe it, because he belonged to a subordinate, and he was a subordinate without a position! It is taboo for subordinates to make decisions without the consent of adults......
Li Ke asked rhetorically, "Are you deaf?" ”
"Uh...... The subordinates are deaf and clear-sighted...... "Quartz Jie praised himself a few points!"
"Since you are not deaf, you should be able to hear and understand what this official is saying! All right! Don't talk about it, you're doing the right thing! The official will also reward you greatly......" Li Ke laughed and took out a box of cigarettes from his cuff......
"Your Excellency...... What is it? This...... How can this still be on fire...... Your ......, my lord."
Quartz Jie watched Li Ke turn on the lighter, lit a white stick, and spit out smoke from his mouth! And then...... Li Ke didn't move, as if his soul had been drained of him, and his whole face turned pale with fright......
I saw Li Ke holding a cigarette between the index and middle fingers of his right hand, and the smoke swirled upward! Li Ke sat motionless on the stool, what was Li Ke thinking at this time?
After pondering for a while, I saw Li Ke muttering, "! I promised Uncle Cheng the cigarettes, but I forgot to give them to him...... Inhale ~ exhale ......"
"Cigarettes? Ahem...... This thing is called a cigarette? My lord...... What's the use of this? Ahem! Quartz asked while waving his hand at the smoke and coughing!
"This thing is called cigarettes, it's expensive! A box is about one tael to four taels of silver, and it is priceless...... Forehead...... No price and no market ......"
Li Ke said while sucking, the most expensive cigarette in modern times is this Liqun Fuchun Shanju cigarettes, the factory price is 8,000 yuan, and the market price is 20,000 pieces, and it is specially supplied!
"Huh?! This thing...... Cigarette! How can it be so expensive? And...... Flavor...... There are some special subordinates...... Not very used to it, hehe! Quartz Jie was shocked, and originally wanted to say that the cigarette smelled extremely bad, but it was difficult to say it directly, so he could only say embarrassedly that he didn't like the smell......
"Hmmm! It's right if you don't like it, smoking is not good for your health, so don't learn to smoke! After Li Ke finished speaking, he pressed the remaining half of the cigarette on the ground and extinguished it~
……
At this time, Bai Yurou was because she went to the shop to choose people, and she had a big deal......
"I've seen you suspicious for a long time, but I didn't expect to come to my store to grab a doctor...... It's a big forest, and there are all kinds of birds! I've heard of robbing money, women, and children! I've never heard of a doctor robbing! ”
He has a round face and a garlic nose, a mustache on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes are not small...... Like beans...... Unclean eyes are running back and forth on Bai Yurou's body! With the red clothes he wears, how obscene and obscene......
When he shouted, there were many people and beggars in the streets! They were shivering with cold, and pointing at Bai Yurou was sarcastic......
"Hey~ It's really a bad day now...... Whew~Girl...... Home~of! Dare...... So...... It's so cold......"
"Yes~...... Hiss~Whew! No...... Family...... Family education...... No more! Hiss~"
In the absence of food and clothing, there is still effort to see the excitement, I have to say...... The genes of eating melons have been passed down so well, and they have been unimpeded all the way...... Until modern times!
The guards hiding in the dark were about to teach the store a lesson, and Bai Yurou hurriedly signaled them with her eyes not to act rashly! The guards hid in the crowd again, carefully observing the surroundings to avoid Bai Yurou's accident......
"You are so shameless in your words, this girl is an upright person, how can she have a suspicious intention? Besides, I didn't rob it! Instead, he asked her brightly! ”
Bai Yurou was also speechless, but she didn't expect the first store she went to be recognized by the store! I can't figure out how he saw it......
"Oops! You are a woman who is so clever and clever in her arguments! Chunlan! You come out ......" The shopkeeper turned and shouted into the house, and then a figure appeared, it was a young woman, about the same age as Rika!
This woman has clear eyebrows and beautiful almond eyes, a small nose and thin red lips, she is wearing a very thin body, she is wearing a pair of cloth shoes under her feet, and her hands are rubbing each other to keep warm! Shivering from the cold...... The upper teeth beat the lower teeth and said, "The shopkeeper's ...... What the...... What's ......?"
"Chunlan! What did this girl talk to you about before? You say it all! Don't be afraid! I'm here...... Protecting you! ”
After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he grabbed Chunlan's arm with his hand, and the latter was shocked and wanted to shake it off! But how could she, a weak woman, have more strength than a man? It can only be pulled to the front by the store......
Facing so many people for the first time, Chunlan, who had low self-esteem and fear, had tears in her eyes, stroked her arms with both hands, and tossed her legs back and forth to keep warm! "I ...... I am...... It's Chunlan......" After Chunlan finished speaking, she lowered her head......
The crowd listened in the clouds, and someone shouted from the audience: "Girl! Come down and live with me......"
Suddenly, another person retorted: "What's the matter with you?" You don't even look at how old you are! Bad old man......"
The shopkeeper didn't have a chance to crowd in the audience, but walked up to Chunlan and muttered, "Say it quickly!" ”
"I ...... I...... The shopkeeper is right, this ...... This girl...... Hiss ~ Indeed...... You're coming to me...... Let me her...... ...... there" After Chunlan finished speaking, she didn't dare to look at Bai Yurou, but said to the shopkeeper: "The shopkeeper's ...... I...... Can I get in......"
"Wait a minute!"
After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he said to the people in front of him, "You all heard it, right?" It's this girl who came to our store to choose people and pull people! Chunlan! I'll give you 500 dollars a month, how much money will she give you? ”
Chunlan said with some hesitation: "She...... She...... It's almost ......."
"Approximate amount? Say it out loud! The shopkeeper immediately encouraged Chunlan to get up......
"She gave me 10 ...... a month"
"10 cents?! Did you hear that? Ten cents!? Before the store finished speaking, Chunlan added: "It's 10 taels of silver......
