"I've worked hard for you these days."

"It's all what subordinates should do, and everyone is very happy to be able to serve Master Hou."

Gongsun Kang is the first group of people to 'follow' Li Mu in the Ministry of Industry, although when he first followed Li Mu, he was just a principal, and now he has only been promoted to a level and has become a member of the Ministry of Industry, but Li Mu values him no less than Yu Wengui. Because this guy is a technical talent, what Li Mu gave him, whether it is heaven and earth or the current store, he has done it very well, and he doesn't have to worry about it at all.

In contrast, although Yuwen Gui can also get things done, he is not single-minded enough, and occasionally some distracting thoughts will pop up and think more.

Of course, it's not a bad thing to think about it more, it's just Li Mu's personal perception.

They are all old men who are familiar with their hands, Li Mu is not too polite, seeing that he is covered with dust, he thought about it, and said: "I just heard my wife say that craftsmen don't need wages, is there such a thing?" ”

Gongsun Kang hurriedly said: "Master Hou, we are here to build a shop for you, how dare you ask for money?" Your great kindness, the whole of the Ministry of Industry, from officials to craftsmen, can't afford to pay it back in this life, do some work for you, and ask for money? Still human? ”

Li Mu frowned and said, "You can't say that, and you don't have to pay it back like this." You think what I have done is kind to you, just remember it in your heart. What is not a wage? When I said it, I thought that I, Li Mu, was poor for this salary. ”

"That's not what I mean!" Gongsun Kang hurriedly defended: "Master Hou, everyone is willing, there is absolutely no bad reputation for Lord Hou-"

"Alright." Li Mu waved his hand and said, "Since it's not bad for my reputation, then how much should it be." Since I have set the rules for the wages of the craftsmen in the Ministry of Works, I must abide by them, and if I don't follow them, who will pay you if you work outside in the future? ”

"Outside, outside?" Gongsun Kang keenly discovered the point in Li Mu's words, and asked carefully: "What does Master Hou mean, are we going to work outside?" ”

"Haven't you heard some wind lately?" Li Mu glanced at Gongsun Kang and said: "Taiyuan is going to repair the road, as the Ministry of Industry, we have the responsibility to grasp the quality of the road repair, I am thinking about recommending a supervisor, to put it bluntly, that is, you and Yuwengui choose one between them." ”

"This ......" Gongsun Kang's mind came alive, what did he do by working hard in the store during this time, wasn't it for his own future? But now in this matter, there is a Yuwen Gui in front, this Yuwen Gui has always been his top boss, when he was in charge, Yuwen Gui was a member of the Lang, he was a member of the Lang, and he was promoted to Langzhong. If this line continues, the fat difference of this overseer will definitely have nothing to do with him.

Li Mu didn't seem to feel Gongsun Kang's eagerness, and said to himself: "In addition to this matter, there are two other things before the New Year, the first thing, repair the lanes in Chang'an City, and the other thing, I plan to build a house in the suburbs, and I have to have someone in charge——"

"If Master Hou doesn't dislike it, the lower officials are willing to saddle the horse before and after!" Gongsun Kang didn't think about it, and blurted out.

Although the overseers outside are fat, where can they follow Li Mu's side. He clearly knows who has the final say in the Ministry of Industry now, and who is in charge of the Ministry of Industry! Don't look at the position of the squire of Li Mugong's Ministry of Labor is gone, but who will intervene in the Ministry of Industry today? Don't say you can't plug it in, even if you do, who will listen to you.

The Ministry of Industry is Li Mu's Yiyantang, his reform has been decided from the beginning, and no one can take over his stall. Although Gongsun Kang is technical, he is not stupid, and if he follows Li Mu's side, he will never suffer a loss.

Li Mu glanced at Gongsun Kang and said, "The overseer is fat." ”

"Xiaguan still wants to stay with Hou Ye and learn a little more."

"Very good." Li Mu nodded and said, "Go and get busy, calculate the salary in the afternoon, how much it should be." Go back and make a list, preferably all of them are skilled craftsmen in heaven and earth until now, and these people will be brought by you in the future, and they will not be dispatched by others, and if anyone asks, let him come to me. ”

"Thank you Lord Hou, the lower official understands, the lower official will do it!" Gongsun Kangxi couldn't help but go, Li Mu said this, although he did not promote his official position on the surface, but in fact, he was already regarded as a confidant. In the Ministry of Industry, all the craftsmen who work nominally are transferred by Yuwengui, the Ministry of Industry, but now he can have his own team, which shows that Li Mu has the mind to support him to fight against Yuwengui.

In the coming days, Yuwen Gui sent out to supervise the workers, didn't the Ministry of Works become his world? It will take at least a few years to build the road, and when Yuwengui comes back, how many people are still in the Ministry of Industry?

Gongsun Kang fell into his own wonderful fantasy, and felt more and more that he had taken the right step in his heart!

At noon, Bai Hao'er arranged the banquet and invited Li Mu to the grocery store for dinner. Li Mu was very face-saving, with a large group of wives and concubines, and had dinner in the backyard of Bai Nao'er's grocery store, and happened to meet Wei Yingluo, who had finished teaching the children, and called him over to ask a few words. Li Mu subconsciously glanced at it a few more times, Bai Qiaoqiao hadn't noticed it yet, but he got Zhang Tianai's big eyes, and the legs were somehow so long, separated by two seats, and he still kicked her, so angry that Li Mu didn't eat well.

Now that the beam is settled, the problem is bound to be solved. After Li Mu was kicked, he kept thinking about how to fight back. He didn't talk much on the way home, and everyone thought he was thinking about things, but they didn't dare to disturb him. went home together like this, and Li Mu didn't go back to the back house, and went into the studio alone.

He had already come up with a brilliant idea.

Not surprisingly, Bai Qiaoqiao still has to sleep with Zhang Tianai today. But for Li Mu, this is already an unacceptable thing. It's been three days, when did he leave Bai Qiaoqiao for more than three days, and if he made up for two more days, he would become a monk, how did this happen?

So, things have to change today. How to change it? This is a problem.

Hit, can't beat. Zhang Tianai's force value, he has already studied it with Li Chongyi and Dugu Jiu, if it is high or low, she is not the opponent of any of the two generals. But fighting alone, if the second general wants to win her, it is not easy, at least fifty moves will have to go up.

Li Mu's force value can probably withstand Li Chongyi's move, because he fainted with one move, and he didn't feel it at all with the second move. So the result of his head-to-head confrontation with Zhang Tianai was that he lost 100% and would be beaten badly.

But does the husband have to be a powerful opponent when he acts? Can't you outwit it? God has given me a system, and smart people will take advantage of it!

On the way back, Li Mu rummaged through the system and finally found something that was perfect for him. There is a way that is far away in the sky, close in front of you. He traveled to this world, and the first time he used it after turning on the system, the weapon that allowed him to successfully escape from the Turkic camp - inferior incense, isn't it just right?

These days, Li Mu eats the prescription prescribed by Sun Simiao, and the family has medicinal herbs. The materials of the inferior incense are too inferior to be found, but the materials needed for the next level of formulation are available. The inferior incense of the day can stun the Turkic soldiers, this higher-grade [crude incense], can it still be missed?

Li Mu laughed wickedly and rubbed incense, so excited that his hands were trembling.

Little girl, you wait for Lao Tzu, see that I stunned you tonight, carry my wife and run, let you be played by Lao Tzu unconsciously, hehehehaha......

"Husband, it's time to eat."

"Okay, right away!" Bai Qiaoqiao's voice sounded outside the door, Li Mu hurriedly put the kneaded incense into his sleeve, washed his hands casually, inspected the places that were not exposed, and came out of the studio with a serious face.

While eating, Li Mu has been trying to stay calm. Because he was trying a little too hard, it seemed like he wasn't in a good mood.

When he came back in the afternoon, Li Mu didn't talk much, and looking at his current appearance, Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Zhien thought he was angry. But I don't know why he is angry, and he is a little uneasy in his heart.

Zhang Tianai probably guessed it, and it was estimated that it might be related to the kick she kicked in the afternoon. But she didn't feel that she was wrong, she thought that Li Mu deserved it, staring at that Wei Yingluo, her eyes were about to stare into someone's chest, and it would be light if she didn't gouge out his eyes.

If Li Mu knew what Zhang Tianai thought, he would definitely be aggrieved. You say you can't see where you can't do it, chest? Does Wei Yingluo have this thing?

Dinner ended in this strange atmosphere, Bai Qiaoqiao glanced at Li Mu worriedly, and said, "Husband, the menstrual affair hasn't passed yet, I'll be tonight-"

"Well, go ahead." Li Mu already had a plan in his heart, and he didn't get entangled, waved his hand, and signaled Bai Qiaoqiao to be at his own convenience. But his performance like this made Bai Qiaoqiao very panicked, and she couldn't help but think, doesn't my husband care about me anymore?

But the words have been spoken, and Zhang Tianai is next to him again, so it is difficult to take it back. Bai Qiaoqiao pursed her lips and went to the guest room with Zhang Tianai. The maid came to remove the table, Li Zhien went back to the inner room to spread the quilt, Li Mu rolled his eyes, and touched the rough incense from his sleeve.

"Master, what do you have in your hand?"

"Shhhhhh ”

"Huh?" Li Zhien cooperated with him and lowered his voice and asked, "Master, what are you buying incense for?" ”

Li Mu hurriedly said: "What do you mean by buying!" The flower thief only bought the incense, which I made with my own hands, and the effect was outstanding. ”

Li Zhien was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart that this sounds a little strange, it should be the flower thief who makes his own incense. But she didn't ask in detail, and said, "Who is the master going to use it against?" ”

"Humph!" Li Mu sneered and said, "Naturally, it's my opponent!" Zhang Tianai loves this guy and occupies my wife, how can I make her feel better? But I couldn't beat her, so I had to outwit her, you leave the lamp, and wait for me to steal jade and incense—no, when I steal my wife back, let's sleep together! ”
