Happy times are always short-lived, and soon it was almost noon, and because he had to deliver food to Master Li later, Li Qi reluctantly stood up from his seat and prepared to leave.

"Qigong, you lost a total of 45 guan, Xiao Jiu is not bad, only lost 30 guan, Uncle Hong - hehe, you are not very lucky today, you lost a total of 68 guan, adding up to a total of 143 guan, if you remove the odds, it will be 140 guan."

Li Qi took the account book and read with a smile.

"Ahem, cough, strange, how the chicken ass has not been born yet, the old man will go and see." Hong Qi stood up, patted his buttocks, and escaped under the two resentful gazes.

Hong Tianjiu played with the simple poker with great interest, as if this matter had nothing to do with him, in fact, strictly speaking, it really didn't matter to him, because the money must have been given by him.

The big boss of this card game is none other than Hong Bajin, his face is like an eggplant frost, and he is very unwilling: "Li Qi, play a few more, why are you in a hurry to go." ”

This money is not much for him, but he can't get by on his face, and the family joins forces to fight one, and he is beaten without the power to fight back, which is really embarrassing.

Li Qi said apologetically: "I'm really sorry, the juniors have something important to do later, and I can't stay for a long time, please forgive Uncle Hong." ”

Hong Bajin pouted and said: "Okay, okay, you go, I'll ask someone to send you the money later, but you have to come often, next time you won't be so lucky." ”

Losers generally say so, but the result is still the same next time, otherwise Lao Tzu has played cards in vain in recent years, and I will also play cards from the bottom, how can you be my opponent.

After coming out of the Hong Mansion, Li Qi immediately rushed back to the Drunken Immortal Residence.

"Brother Li, you're back."

"Huh? Xiaoyu, why are you? ”

As soon as Li Qi entered the door, he saw Xiaoyu standing in the counter, and asked curiously: "Where is Uncle Wu?" ”

"Uncle Wu went out this morning, let me watch here."

Li Qi nodded and asked, "By the way, I asked you to arrange for someone to go south with the canned meat, how did you arrange it?" ”

Xiao Yu nodded and said: "It has been all arranged, all of them are done according to your orders, there are a total of thirty people, ten of them are those who entered the Drunken Immortal Residence with me, and the remaining twenty are recruited for the second time." ”

This Xiaoyu really has nothing to say.

Li Qi nodded with satisfaction, and suddenly heard a singing voice on the side, "The sky is blue and waiting for the smoke and rain, and I am waiting for you, the smoke is rising, thousands of miles across the river." ”

Blue and white porcelain?

Li Qi turned his head to see that it was Chen Anan, who had just walked downstairs and was humming.

Xiaoyu pursed her lips and smiled: "Brother Li, you don't know, just this sentence, Anan has been singing all morning, you can talk about him." ”

It's a must. Li Qi smiled and shouted, "Anan." ”

Chen Anan turned his head and saw that it was Li Qi, so he hurriedly ran over and said, "Brother Li, when did you come back?" ”

"Just came back."

Li Qi looked at him with a smile in his eyes and said, "Anan, who taught you the song you sang just now?" ”

Chen Anan said with a smile: "I overheard it from Sister Hongnu's yard this morning, but I just remembered one sentence, Brother Li, what did you say I sang." ”

Li Qi patted his head and said angrily: "You kid sings so quietly, there is a p, if you want to sing, sing it louder for me, and be like a girl." ”

Chen Anan kept his waist and roared: "The sky is blue and waiting for the smoke and rain." ”

After this first sentence, Li Qi couldn't stand it, if people heard it, I am afraid that the time of Hongnu's debut would have to be delayed for a year, and he hurriedly said: "Ouch, brother is wrong, you still hum and forget it." ”

Chen Anan's face stiffened, and his face was flushed.

Xiao Yu couldn't help it for a long time, covered her lips and giggled.

"Master Li."

At this moment, Wu Furong suddenly walked in from outside.

Li Qi said, "Uncle Wu, are you going to Beicheng?" ”

Wu Furong was stunned and said, "How do you know? ”

Li Qi blinked and said, "Didn't you say last time that you still had - what in the North City?" ”

Wu Furong paused, and then reacted, knowing that Li Qi was referring to his two-room concubine, he coughed violently, and said, "Don't talk nonsense, the old man is going to do business." ”

Li Qi smiled: "That's also the right thing." ”

Wu Furong rolled his eyes, knowing that he couldn't talk about him, so he pulled him to the side and whispered: "Do you remember that you asked Lao Yu to help you find a glass workshop?" ”

Li Qi's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said, "Is there any news?" ”

Now that the bar is about to open, it would be a real addition to the glasses.

Wu Furong nodded and said: "Well, I heard last night that the glaze workshop of the old Liu family in Beicheng was in a hurry to sell, so I went to inquire this morning, and it was true, and the price was very cheap, as long as eight hundred, what do you think?" ”

So cheap?

Li Qi frowned and said, "There won't be any fraud in it, right?" ”

Wu Furong said: "That's right, some time ago, his workshop messed up a batch of goods, and now the customer is chasing him for debts, so he sells them so cheaply." ”

"Uncle Wu, I actually didn't buy his piece of land, but those workers, I can build a workshop wherever I want, mainly because it is difficult to find familiar hands."

Wu Furong hurriedly said: "Let's buy the workshop, those workers are not our people." ”

Li Qi sighed: "But you yourself said that they just smashed the customer's goods, how good can this kind of craftsman technique be." ”

Wu Furong nodded and said: "That's true, but the business of their workshop has always been good, and there must have been some accident this time." By the way, when I just came, I also bought glass beads from their workshop, and I thought it was okay. So saying, he took a bead out of his bosom.

Li Qi took a look, almost didn't swear words, this glass bead is dozens of grades worse than the defective products of later generations, the color is unknown, the workmanship is rough, there is no color at all, what the hell. said depressedly: "Uncle Wu, this thing is also a good thing?" ”

Wu Furong nodded and said, "That's right." Now there is little glaze, in my opinion, except for the official kiln burning, this bead is good, and we can't buy it in the official kiln. ”

Li Qi is not very familiar with the glaze market in the Northern Song Dynasty, and the only thing he knows is that there are relatively few glazes at the moment, and he said: "Are you sure this is good?" ”

Wu Furong nodded again.

It seems that there is only a matter of retreat.

Li Qi nodded and said, "That's fine." Let's go and see in the afternoon, what to do, and then discuss it. ”

After talking to Wu Furong, Li Qi went to the kitchen, the soup he was going to make for Master Li today, he had already instructed Wu Xiaoliu and the others to make it, and after a while, he took the soup to Master Li's attic.

Since there was still something to do in the afternoon, Li Qi didn't stay in for too long this time, and after Master Li finished eating, he came out.

But he also gained a good news and a bad news, the good news is that on the way there, he thought of some ways to make Master Li happy, the bad news is that Master Li just told him, Feng Yinu has also dined with her recently, the potential meaning is that he will have to be the weight of two people in the future.

Afternoon.

Li Qi and Wu Furong came to Beicheng, they did not go directly to the shopkeeper of the glaze workshop, but came to a small foot shop on the edge of the glaze workshop.

"What do you want to eat, two guest officers?"

The lady of the foot shop saw that Li Qi and Wu Furong were not dressed badly, so she hurriedly walked over and greeted her.

Li Qi casually threw out a small copper coin and said, "Auntie, how is the glazed shop here?" ”

The eldest lady was stunned for a moment and said, "Guest officer, why are you asking this?" ”

"Oh. I'm going to buy a batch of glass and go back. ”

"Then you have come to the right place, the glass made by the old Liu family is famous, and their master's craftsmanship is also quite good." The lady sighed, and a pair of big rough hands swept over the table, and the small copper coin entered her sleeve.

Li Qi smiled slightly and said, "But I heard that they have recently messed up a batch of goods. ”

The lady sighed and said, "Guest officer, you don't know, you can't blame those craftsmen for this, if you want to blame the shopkeeper Liu, if it weren't for his greed, he urged the craftsmen to work hard, shortening the construction period by nearly half, and the batch of goods would not have been messed up." ”

Li Qi frowned and said, "Oh? How do you know so clearly? ”

The eldest lady said: "The master of their workshop often comes here to eat, and the old man also listens to them. As she spoke, she pointed to a table outside the house and whispered, "Have you seen the man outside the house, he is the craftsman head of Liulifang, Zheng Quan, Master Zheng." ”

Li Qi glanced out of the house, and saw that it was an old man in his forties, and he glanced at Wu Furong, and the two of them immediately got up and walked out of the house.

Li Qi came to Zheng Quanquan and said with a smile: "Master Zheng." ”

Zheng Quan looked up and saw that it was two strangers, and seeing that they were gorgeously dressed, he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly got up and returned the salute, and asked, "Who are the two?" ”

Li Qi smiled: "I am a businessman from the south, and I want your workshop to help me make a batch of colored glass." ”

Zheng Quan's face was happy at first, and then immediately gloomy, and said, "Two, you better find another family." ”

"Why?"

Zheng Quan sighed: "Don't hide it from the two of you, our shopkeeper is already planning to sell this workshop." ”

"But because you messed up the guest's goods last time?"

"You know?"

"I've heard a little."

"And you're still coming to us?"

"This kind of mistake is quite common, it's not a big deal."

"Hmph. The old man has been working here for more than 20 years, and there has never been such a mistake, if it were not for the urgency of the shopkeeper, the brothers worked day and night, and did not close their eyes for several nights, how could they have missed. ”

The more Zheng Quan spoke, the more energetic he became, and after speaking, he poured a large bowl of wine into his stomach.

Li Qi's eyes flashed, and he said, "Master Zheng, you said that you have been working here for more than 20 years?" ”

Zheng Quanleng nodded and nodded.

Li Qi smiled: "Then you are also quite loyal." ”

Zheng Quan sighed: "What about loyalty, now the shopkeeper is in a hurry to sell the workshop, he will not care about us, if the new owner does not want us, we will not have to sleep on the streets, and now the brothers are already finding another way, alas." ”

The corners of Li Qi's mouth lifted and said, "This is not necessarily, you tell your brother not to worry, take a good rest for a few days, and wait for a few days, and you will get better." ”

Zheng Quan was stunned for a moment and said, "Who are you?" ”

Li Qi smiled, got up and said, "You will know this later, remember, don't worry, you will be curious." With that, he got up and said, "Farewell." ”

Zheng Quan was confused, and subconsciously arched his hand

"That's leaving?"

Wu Furong saw that Li Qi didn't even go to Liulifang, so he went straight back, and couldn't help but be curious.

Li Qi smiled: "Uncle Wu, do you know how to make glass?" ”

"I don't understand."

"I don't understand either, so I went in and looked at it, and it was in vain, but I want to know and know almost everything, you immediately call someone to find out how much money this shopkeeper owes to that guest, we can only add a hundred yuan on this basis, this is our bottom line."

"You don't understand, you're still going to buy it?"

"Uncle Wu, think about it, even if we fail, then we will lose 1,800 yuan at most, if we succeed, then we will make a lot of money, don't fight, I might as well go home and raise my children."

Wu Furong saw that Li Qi was full of confidence, and the doubts in his heart were swept away, and he said: "But now the price is low enough, if we press it again, I'm afraid that Lao Liu will sell it to others." ”

Li Qi sneered: "His workshop is now discredited, who would dare to buy it, and besides, it is not a day or two to make Liuli Huiben, you just do what I say, robbing while the fire is my strength." ”
