(2nd Update)

Li Qian withdrew his gaze from the gem, "This box of gems is quite rare, where did Gorou get it?" ”

Li Luo replied: "It's good to teach uncle to know." This gem is not long in coming. In April, the younger nephew was selling jade porcelain in Hanyang Province when he met a merchant from Dazaifu of the Wa Kingdom, and when he saw the jade porcelain, he immediately offered to exchange it for a box of precious stones. ”

When Li Qi heard Dazaifu, he immediately became sensitive. Next year, troops will be deployed against Japan, and the chosen landing place will be Tsukushi Island (Kyushu Island), where Dazaifu is located.

"That Japanese merchant is rare in my jade porcelain, and I am also rare in his gems, and the two sides hit it off and reached a deal. In the end, I exchanged more than 100 pieces of jade porcelain for a box of gems. ”

"If I take the words of this Japanese businessman, he revealed that there is a mountain range on Zhuzi Island, and there are many gem mines in it." Li Luo said this, of course, to prepare a speech for next year's expedition.

Li Qian nodded, it turned out that this was the case. It's a pity that no one in the Li clan is a general in the army, otherwise, if the expedition is successful next year, he can occupy that gem mountain range in advance.

Li Luo picked out the best gems and corals and gave them to Li Qian and his wife, and then starting with the eldest Li Ruoyu, each of them gave a large handful of gem corals.

Everyone who gets something smiles.

But when the Jin brothers and sisters were divided, he suddenly let out an "oops", then looked at the empty box and said, "This box is gone!" I'm sorry, brother-in-law Jin, Mrs. Jin...... The other box is for the clan elders...... I'm sorry. ”

Jin Guangruo saw that this box was really empty, but the other box had not been opened.

Suddenly, Jin Guangruo's sweet and lovely face was difficult to look at. Even if she was an idiot, she knew that Li Luo did it on purpose. Li Luo had a holiday with her brother, and this was the only time she would repay it.

Li Luo, are you blind and can't see my beauty? Do you know that I am the pearl of the Kim family? Did you know that I might choose you?

But you have humiliated me so much!

Ever since I was a child, you have never dared to treat me like this, you hillbilly, a dog on the wild road, dare to be so presumptuous to me?

Li Luo, this lady must make you regret the humiliation you gave me today, definitely!

Jin Guangruo's beautiful lips were tightly pursed, cardamom jade fingers were pinched tightly, and her beautiful body stiffened with anger.

Of course, Li Luo knew that Jin Guangruo was very unhappy, but so what? Who called her Kim Kwang-sung's sister? No matter how beautiful she looks, Li Luo won't take it seriously.

Li Luo is certainly smart, but he is a man who doesn't understand women very well after all. He didn't know what the consequences would be for offending a woman, especially someone as arrogant as Jin Guangruo.

Perhaps only a man who has suffered a loss will regret offending a woman casually.

Jin Guangxian also trembled with anger, this was in the public, in full view, blatantly retaliating against himself and humiliating himself.

Is it tolerable or unbearable!

Jin Guangxian's face was pale, but when he saw Li Luo's cold eyes with a smile, he suddenly calmed down.

Call......

is a dignified Jin family's sister-in-law, why should he be angry with a hillbilly who is wild? Once he tore his face with Li Luo in public and broke out in Chuandeng Temple with the intention of infecting Li Luo's wife, wouldn't he have a bad reputation?

That's it, just bear with it for a while. In the future, I will find an opportunity to get it back.

Li Luo, you wait for me.

Seeing Jin Guangxian's face that was about to turn up, and then calmed down, Li Luo couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

This gentleman has some patience, but it's a pity. Li Luo actually hoped that the other party would tear his face, so as to take the opportunity to give the other party a lesson that he would never forget.

Jin Guangruo suddenly smiled, like a hundred flowers blooming, "If you don't have it, it's gone, Brother Li Luo doesn't have to take it to heart, it's okay." ”

Saying yes, she lowered her eyes and hid the gloom in her eyes by drinking tea.

"Okay, okay, although the gem is good, what a friendship is like a close family. Just dedicate it, and I'll give you this little thing. It's also a gift from Gorou. Li Qian smiled and thinned the mud, and generously gave some of his gems to the Jin brothers and sisters.

But he was reluctant to give the best cat's eye and basket gems, and he planned to give them to the king, since there was no one in the palace, I believe the king would like it.

"Gorou, you come with me to the study, and our uncle and nephew will have a good talk." Li quickly got to the point.

Here it comes!

"Yes." Li Luo stood up.

Seeing Li Luo's back leaving, everyone's expressions were different, complicated and different. Li Luo's extravagant gift this time refreshed their opinion of Li Luo.

At least, even if Li Luo is a nouveau riche, it is really generous.

The eyes of the Kim brothers and sisters were full of resentment. Especially Jin Guangruo, her gaze was like two knives, eager to stab Li Luo's back to pieces.

…………

Li Qian is in a high position in the middle of the court, and he is the head of the Li valve family in the clan, and he is a real big man.

However, even in such a position of power, once it comes to great interests, he cannot be calm. Because he is the patriarch and determines the rise and fall of the Li family's honor, how can he not fight when he encounters profit?

…………

A full hour later, Li signed Li Luo's "uncle and nephew" and came out of the study with a smile on their faces, looking like "uncle and nephew are filial" and talked happily.

Li Qian is really satisfied, this nephew really has a heart for the Li family, and actually offered to dedicate the production method of jade porcelain to the family. didn't make it difficult for him, an uncle.

There is no possibility of that kind of "unspeakable" "next work" thing to happen.

In addition, after some detailed discussion, he found that this nephew was really a talent. Not only is he calm and practical, his mind is quick, but he is also very knowledgeable about the current situation and political affairs, and he is very officialdom savvy.

Moreover, he is also proficient in calligraphy, Mongolian, Tibetan, and Japanese. Even, he is no stranger to military equipment.

Such a good material and beautiful jade, as long as it is cultivated vigorously, it will definitely be a pillar of the court and a pillar of the family in the future.

Although his eldest son Li Ruoyu is his successor, and now he is also a high-ranking official, his temperament is cold and harsh, and his future career may not be satisfactory.

Although there are many talented children in the lineage, there is no one who has comprehensive talents, a calm temperament, and a keen sense of things.

Then, after a hundred years, it is very likely that the Li family will begin to decline.

But this nephew can have all three, and over time, he can be a strong helper. If Li Luo is proud of his career, the Li family will have one more pillar in the future, which is conducive to maintaining the status of the Li family.

This nephew was quite assertive and offered to serve in the army, so that the Li family could increase his influence in the army.

The Li family is a top soldier, and he has always been noble and martial, and the children of the family are willing to be noble civil officials, not rude and hard-working generals.

Now Li Luo takes the initiative to become a military attaché, which will not threaten Li Ruoyu's future status as the head of the family, but also increase the power of the Li family in the army.

It's just that this nephew proposed to be a military attache in Jianghua first, because Jianghua's position is extremely important, and the Li family has no power in Jianghua Island.

Moreover, Li Luo said that he had opened up some situations in Jianghua, and once he was transferred to a different place, his previous efforts would be wasted.

Of course, he would not refuse Li Luo's request. It's just that he doesn't want to transfer out of Ganghwa Island, it's easy for him.

What surprised him even more was that this nephew wanted to follow the Yuan army to Japan next year. Li Luo judged that the chances of winning this expedition were greater, and if he could really attack the Wa Kingdom, he would have the opportunity to occupy the gem mountain, which would be a source of money.

Not to mention military exploits.

Once Meng Yuan occupied the Wa State, as a meritorious general, he could also get a share of the Wa State, and the Li family's interests might extend to the Wa State.

He listened to his nephew's words, and became more and more moved.

In the end, he decided to help this nephew seek the opportunity to lead the army next year. Just take a gamble, and if you win the bet, it will be a steady stream of benefits.

Of course, if the military rank is too low and the commander is too small, it will definitely not be successful, and if you go, you will be sent to the dead, and you will not be qualified to get a piece of the pie. At the very least, you must have a military post of more than five grades, and only after victory can you reap some benefits.

Let Li Luo be promoted to the fifth grade or above, and at least six levels will be promoted within a year. To the average person, this is simply a pipe dream. But for him Li Sign, it's not that it can't be done.
