After laughing, Li Guolou returned to his normal shape, took a sip of tea, and said: "Master Bao, this woman was handled by me, our Chaoyang plan, desperate survival, President Zhen will come forward, those ignorant people will vote in favor, this month will be passed, you can see it!" ”

"So. Bao Tong was a little unconvinced, he had already learned how slow Manren was moving.

Li Guolou smiled and said: "Didn't President Zhen want to show merit in front of me, patted his chest and assured me that if she does what she does, those Manchu aristocratic concessions do things, she knows everything, and the Manchurians also want to give President Zhen face, no!" ”

"Oh······ Shoot breast augmentation. Zhu Danyu interjected, causing laughter in the hall.

"Hmm······ This official believes you, and you will make a fortune together in the future, and if you say that you buy land in the British Concession, I will also buy a piece of land. "Bao Tong also wants to leave a way out, buy a piece of land first, and let Li Guolou take care of the construction project.

"Oh······ No. 18 Xiafei Road, Lord Bao is like this, the construction of garden houses is very expensive, I don't have so much money for a while, I build a wall first, and the building on the road is fake, so that the British devils will not look for trouble, otherwise you will be fined if you buy land and do not build a house. Li Guolou said the shortcomings of the British Concession, everyone is so fooling the British devils.

"Oh······" Zhu Danyu suddenly realized: "No wonder the British Concession looks very prosperous, it turns out that there is still this hand!" ”

"Hehe, the British devils also want to save face, everyone is human, the concession will not be a government investment, the British will only build public facilities if they take our compensation from the Qing Dynasty, and other buildings are private investments, so they are not stupid, they said that they will return it to the Qing Kingdom in a hundred years, how can they use the money in their pockets." Li Guolou said that the British are attentive, and foreigners also do flowers.

Bao said together: "Xiao Lizi, when Yelia returns to Tianjin and asks her to come forward to help me buy a piece of land, we will be neighbors after Xia Fei Road, and the construction will be handed over to you, you still know how to build Western architecture, and the money will not be less for you!" ”

Li Guolou lowered his head, and quickly admitted his mistake: "It's me who is not good, I didn't pay attention to this kid in Quanzhong, gambling is addictive, Master Bao must not indulge him because he won once, no matter how big the business will be lost by gamblers, you can't let him take charge of your business in the future, if he loses, he will make false accounts to fool you, I advise you kindly, as long as you live, don't hand over your family property to Quanzhong, and after you are a hundred years later, you will not be out of sight!" ”

Bao stroked his beard together, nodded and said, "Hmm······ I have thought of this a long time ago, my son and Danyu's life should be settled, this time our criminal department has made a great contribution, as long as the next five years are stable, I can still be promoted, and I will cover you in the future, I can't do anything about your files, I don't write the assessment, those old scholars can't buy people, do you understand this! ”

Li Guolou has a bitter taste in his mouth, the official file cannot be changed, it belongs to the national first-class secret, his life is erosive, he will accompany him for life, the Qi family can level the world, family problems will drag down his official career, and he makes his own choice between trade-offs, and he can't go back.

Bao Yitong patted Li Guolou on the shoulder and said: "Little Lizi, you must find out that diamond for me, Cheng Kunyu is a chess piece, the Queen Mother will always use it, and it is good for everyone to have a good relationship with Cheng Kunyu!" ”

"Pierce." Li Guolou flipped his horseshoe sleeves, knelt on one leg and said: "Don't worry, Lord Bao, the lower officials must be stolen and get the errand to do it beautifully, and make a military order, for a period of five days, and then the lower officials will definitely let Lord Bao see what a fifteen-carat diamond looks like!" ”

"Hmm······ Xiao Lizi, you take it and ask your wife to come forward to do business, I want to participate in the silver stocks, do you understand that everyone is a fair businessman. "Bao fell in love with this God of Wealth, and expected that Li Guolou's career line was thriving, and his official luck was not much better.

"This ······" Li Guolou rolled his eyes at Bao Tong, there was a little minister next to him who was hard to say, this bisexual chief is now infatuated with the gypsy Yesenia, and Yesenia always feels that he is like a god, Bao Tong's ears blow the wind in his ears, so Bao Tonghui has to be neighbors with Li Guolou again, and he has to participate in Li Guolou's business, which makes him a little embarrassed as a matchmaker, how can he be embarrassed.

"Yes." Li Guolou turned around, and hurriedly agreed, a good thing, Jingshi does business, there is a golden signboard with the bag, no fairy dares to come to eat his Tang monk meat, even if the Tianzi brothers will not interfere in his business, this is good, you can separate from the Jianghu brothers, serious business or draw a clear line with the Jianghu people, one day he will wash his hands like Yu Hanbing, the boss of the Elders' Association, and be a conscientious national businessman.

Li Guolou still had a big thing on his mind, and he leaned up with a hippie smile and asked, "Master Bao, is the case of the household department investigated!" ”

Bao pointed his finger upwards and said: "Look at the will of heaven, I will wait for the secret decree, and we will wait for the revival of the party affairs to be dealt with, and we can't start a fire in the backyard now, understand!" ”

"Pierce." Li Guolou saw Bao pick up the teacup together, and kept winking at him, which meant that there were some things that could not be known to the little minister Zhu Danyu, and he wanted to talk about it during the event in the British Hall on Friday, and hurriedly retreated.

Zhu Danyuhu said suspiciously: "Master Bao, our Jingshi has so many money-making businesses, why do you beg for little plums!" ”

"Hey······ Danyu, you don't understand, don't I leave one more way back, Li Zhongtang is favored, the Forbidden City is running horses, isn't it a favor for me to have a good relationship with Xiao Lizi, where I make money, I put it there, put Xiao Lizi there, although I can't make anything now, but in the future, who can expect it. Bao looked into the distance with deep eyes.

Bao Tong belongs to the Mesozoic Dynasty officials, is Prince Gong's protégé, the career is smooth, the current position is powerful and rich, and then go up, it is a first-class and second-class officer, or a false title and wait for the elderly, then you can enter the cabinet, this is the real high power, bribes are manors, worth thousands of gold antiques, there is the center of power, Zeng Guofan has been old, about to rotten wood, Li Hongzhang is a senior, one day he will also have the opportunity to take the position, Bao Tong is ambitious, as if he sees the court ten years later.

Li Guolou walked forward with light steps, as if he was dancing at a dance party in the British Guild Hall, he hugged Yelia and changed it to Xie Liya, and then changed to Xie Xiuzhu, Zhen Yuhuan won't go, Li Guolou thought about it beautifully, mixed garlic under his feet, mixed garlic with one foot on the protruding threshold, and stumbled and almost fell.

Li Guolou stood firm, this truth told him that he couldn't be happy and sad, he connived at Wu Peipei to come to his house for the night, it was a big trouble, and he was asking for trouble and it wasn't the lack of women around him, why did he do such an outrageous thing, if he wanted people to know unless he did it, sooner or later the chief would know about it, his brother would also know, and his enemies would also know that one day he would be a ginseng, and he didn't even have the courage to tell lies.

Thinking of this floor, Li Guolou was listless, and the desire to be promoted disappeared as soon as he appeared, so it was better to be alone and be the emperor of the soil in the courtyard.

Jin Erzi's head stretched out like a giraffe, looking forward to it, he saw Li Guolou enter the criminal department and disappeared, and he was anxious.

"Captain Lee." Jin Erzi suddenly jumped in front of Li Guolou and shouted.

"Stinky boy, you want to scare me to death." Li Guolou was shocked three times a day, and became a frightened bird, and he waved his hand to hit Jin Erzi's head, which is a sign of his own people, only a lock of brothers will be beaten and scolded by Li Guolou.

"Hey, hey, hey." Jin Erzi scratched his head and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, head, I'm in a hurry, someone is looking for me to redress my grievances, I can only rely on you to get ahead!" ”

Li Guolou pointed to Jin Erzi's nose and said, "Look at your dead appearance, don't tell me that the woman in Huangcun was said to be a broken shoe, and she was driven out!" ”

"Ah······h Jin Erzi was scared to death, he thought that he was doing things unconsciously, Li Guolou had already known, hurriedly shook his hand, and argued: "No, no, it's the pimple in Huangcun, and Yue Lanlan came to beg me, the head is powerful, but no matter what happens between us, head, you know, I took the hush money, Yue Lanlan's belly is big, and I will be able to get all the family property in the future, how can I destroy the perfect plan, it is Yuelan Lanniang's family who has a big grievance to complain, but there is no place to shout, so she came to me, she came to me with a big belly, I was sad to see it, I only relied on my head to come forward to rehabilitate Zhaoxue for Xiaoxiu, and people originally had to take the exam, but now they have been deprived of their fame, and they are also beaten to death in prison, just waiting for the autumn queen to ask for beheading! ”

While speaking, Jin Erzi dragged Li Guolou to a corner of the courtyard, and talked to Li Guolou in a low voice.

Yuelan Lan's mother's family is Gu Village, her relative's name is Gu Shuimo, she was admitted to Xiucai in her early twenties, and she belongs to Gu Village's influential figures, and the whole village is proud of Gu Shuimo's examination for Xiucai.

On the fifth day of the first month of March, Gu Shuimo dressed up properly, and joined the ranks of the youth with a brocade robe and sword, letting people know that he was a talent and wanted to track down the dream lover in his mind.

Gaojiazhuang senior member of the family, the ancestor once served as the Yongzheng Emperor period of the right governor of the imperial history, is an official eunuch, Gao Yuanwai himself is kind and charitable, the township has a very good reputation, more than forty years old to get a daughter, as if the pearl in the palm of the hand, the daughter Gao Xiu Xiuqin chess calligraphy and painting is very good, plus the good looks, the vision is quite high, the blind date does not look down on mediocre men, plus the senior staff want to find a son-in-law, the future is also good to inherit the Gao family wealth, so Gao Xiuxiu is nearly 20 years old and has not yet married, this Gao Xiu outside the heart, is not a big accident.

Gao Xiuxiu's biological mother has passed away a few years ago, she has to go to the grave every year to burn incense and pray for her mother, this year is naturally no exception, the grass is green, the spring breeze is warm, there is a melancholy in my heart, it is a coincidence, back to Gaojiazhuang Road, Gao Xiuxiu inadvertently saw Gu Shuimo in the carriage, beautiful appearance, and walking with a sword, just with his eyes opposite, the two are happy, rubbing a spark of love, and there is a kind of affection between each other.

All this naturally can't escape the eyes of the personal maid Aihua, Aihua has always been good at observing words and feelings, and immediately asked the coachman to stop the carriage, so the maid Aihua made a private match, and set to let Gu Shuimo go to the embroidery building to have a tryst with Gao Xiuxiu at ten o'clock in the evening.

Li Guolou already knew what would happen later when he heard this, so he didn't interrupt Jin Erzi's statement, and nodded slightly to show his appreciation.
