"Presumptuous! I ransomed you back to the Li Mansion just to protect my own safety! Why did you ever ask you to set foot in the kingdom of Gur on my behalf? Li Chengji reprimanded with a calm face and a stern tone.

But Calwan listened, and his face did not show any panic. He bowed and said indifferently: "Young master, the head of a hundred households is a military position in Da Liao. If you are an ordinary urchin, why do you need to ask for this position? ”。

"My father is a great Liaozhong book, and he is loyal to the king and serving the country. I am not an ordinary naughty child. Li Chengji's face softened a little, but he didn't think so.

However, Kalwan was not convinced, but continued to ask: "Then young master, why do you have to keep nearly two hundred guards?" What is the intention of treating us so favorably? And the monthly salary of five dinars is not a small amount. ”。

Li Chengji's heart immediately tightened!

Because of this, he really can't explain it. If you say that you are timid and afraid, so you have to keep so many guards, how can you explain the competition between yourself and Zhang Xinglu. If you say that you are stupid and have a lot of money, you treat them so preferentially. That sounds too deceptive.

In the end, ordinary guards, there is no need to give them such a heavy salary. And it is to protect their own safety, and there are also slaves in the tooth shop. There is no need at all, they are such defeated captives.

Thinking like this, he found himself at a dead end.

Fortunately, his experience as a SWAT officer reminded him that when faced with a question that he didn't know how to answer, he could deal with it in a different way. He furrowed his brows, neither admitting nor denying it, and said, "The country of Gur is your mother country?" Are you really willing to step on it? ”。

Karwan shook his head instantly, explaining, "The young master has misunderstood! I was a Kipchak, but I was bought by the Sultan since I was a child. But in his heart, he did not regard the country of Gur as his mother country. ”。

Li Chengji listened, and didn't want to speculate about the truth or falsehood. He said no more and let Calwan leave.

And he himself was thinking about it. These days, have you done too much? Otherwise, how could Kalwan see through his intentions.

After all, with his age, many people will not associate him with things such as taking prisoners and seeking the head of a hundred households.

I wouldn't even think that he had nearly 200 private soldiers, so there was anything wrong with it.

Even in Da Liao, the guards were counted as private soldiers. More than a hundred guards are also easily monitored and reprimanded by the imperial court. Even Mahmut Tebai was also blamed by the imperial doctors in this matter.

But because of his age, he was ignored by the imperial historians.

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt that it was too unwise to put the guards in Balasagon . Thinking about it, he moved them to some secluded place.

It's just that he thought of it in the middle of the night, and he couldn't think of a reason. I had to rub my head with a slight headache and go to bed to rest.

After a few days, Li Chengji also put aside this matter for the time being. Because his energy is really not enough. During the day, not only did he have to follow Xiao Chongde to learn martial arts, but also to follow Mr. Teach, learning the four languages of Han, Khitan, Huihe, and Persia.

Among them, the Persian language was requested by him on his own initiative.

In the evening, I finally got free. It is also necessary to improve the concept of the military system and the business of the store.

So in recent days, he has been so busy that he has no time to rest.

But in addition to the busyness, there is also good news.

That is, Zhou Langzhong agreed to his proposal and was willing to run the hospital together.

In this matter, Li Chengji took advantage. Because he only provided prescriptions, he obtained the right to operate half of the medical center.

You know, he didn't have to work hard to get this prescription. Just let Xiao Zi find some prescriptions that can be applied in this era, and it is enough to deal with it. Even screening can be waived.

And on weekdays, he doesn't have to take care of the operation of the hospital at all.

Just wait for the end of the month and take the pre-agreed share.

It can be regarded as a veritable hands-off shopkeeper.

Of course, he won't do nothing.

For example, with his own connections, he will radiate the diagnosis and treatment group of the medical center to the upper class. Naturally, the money earned is a lot more.

In addition, through various channels, it also recruits traveling doctors from all over Daliao. I don't ask them to heal anything, or how famous they are. All they need is to come to their own clinic and help treat patients.

Although Li Chengji also wants famous doctors to come to the medical center!

But his temple is too small, and the generally famous Langzhong is despised in his heart.

In order to implement his idea of renovating the medical center, he also classified these traveling doctors. It is also to establish a systematic hospital like later generations.

It's a pity that the medical skills of these traveling doctors are too homogeneous. What kind of wind and cold, strain, scald, etc., basically will be on both hands. If it is outstanding, there is no one.

This made Li Chengji regretfully put away the idea.

It's just that he didn't give up, but went to Yaxing with Li Dali and bought a group of slaves of different genders. Then, with the help of Xiao Zi, some basic medical books were printed. I plan to train these slaves to become the doctors I want.

But it's just as sad!

The plan is still unformed.

Because the slaves who were bought were illiterate in big letters. If you want them to understand medical books, you must first be able to read and write. And because the origin of slaves is more complicated, there is also a lot of inconvenience in words.

There was no way, Li Chengji could only let these slaves follow him into the study to study.

But those who teach don't do it. For the slaves bought, twenty-one in all. Thirteen of them were boys and eighteen girls. It's never been the same time for them to learn together.

So I made a fuss and invited Li Xiao again.

So after some preaching and bargaining, Li Xiao finally persuaded Li Chengji not to let those girls go to school with him. And Mr. Teaching also agreed that Li Chengji should take the remaining boys to school.

It's a bit off from what we expected, but that's how it is in these days. With his current ability, he doesn't want to break the limitations of the times.

was so busy that before the captives competed, Li Chengji finally thought of a good livelihood.

Just when he was overjoyed, Li vigorously prepared the corresponding materials. They have come to the Li Mansion to find him.

"Second brother!"

"Third brother!"

"Brother Li", Sun Mingxi, Yi Ra Chong'a, Guo Shizhuang and others hugged their fists and saluted.

Li Chengji also responded respectfully, and welcomed everyone to his small courtyard to sit down. Looking at their happy faces again, Li Chengji guessed that they had encountered something good.

The facts are also as he guessed, and there are really good things to tell them.

It turned out that just a few days ago, Balasagon had come to a Hu merchant from Khorezm. He claims to have a unique technique that can turn stones into gold. As long as you exchange them with extremely precious objects, you can teach the magic.
