Chapter 378: Willing to spend money
On the second day, after getting up, Li Youfu called the shopkeeper Wang and briefly explained his arrangements.
"Master, it's better for you to make this arrangement! Our host has instructed us to take good care of a few of them. Say whatever you want. Shopkeeper Wang nodded and said.
"Shopkeeper! Don't even say it, there's something I really need your help with. Li Youfu was a little embarrassed.
"What's the matter? Master, you just command! "The shopkeeper of the king suddenly came to his senses.
His boss has instructed that if he takes care of these people, he will be transferred back to Zhangjiakou immediately. He can't get on the pole and stutter.
"You know, that, that we didn't have a lot of money from over there. With you, pay two hundred taels of silver. You know we're going to have to do something, and it's going to cost a lot. Li Youfu's old face blushed slightly.
"Okay, I'll get it for you! Wait a minute. Then the king's shopkeeper agreed, turned around, and went out to fetch him money.
He wished that this Li Youfu would ask for more silver, and then he would be able to make some false personal accounts in it. The money he used to buy concubines and mansions fell on these fellows. Anyway, the proprietor didn't dare to ask about the amount of money it would cost.
His boss said a long time ago that it doesn't matter how much money you make, as long as you do a good job over there, it will be a great achievement. For being traitors and spies, these Shanxi businessmen are very willing to spend money.
In a short time, the king's treasurer brought over two hundred taels of silver. After handing it over to Li Youfu, the shopkeeper Wang bent down diligently and said, "Master, you spend it first!" Our host has already commanded, but if there is a need, the small one here will fully cooperate! ”
"Well said, well said! When we go back, we will definitely repay the shopkeeper and your owner! Li Youfu was satisfied and put the silver into his arms.
"However, you still have to keep this room for us. If there's anything, we'll still have to discuss it here. Li Youfu finally commanded.
After explaining clearly, Li Youfu left the "Marriott Inn".
As the saying goes, "three holes of the cunning rabbit". The three of them are bald, and they all live in one place, which is really easy to attract attention, and the risk of being served in one pot is too great.
After Li Youfu left the "Marriott Inn", he soon went to find an inn on the street closer to the workshop. In order to avoid attracting the attention of interested people, after opening the room, he threw himself into bed and slept.
After all, he is a fake monk, and he really knows very little about the monk's set of things. If he really wants to go around seeking wealth like a true monk, Li Youfu believes that these three of them will soon show their feet and attract the attention of the officials and soldiers of Fushan Bay.
Therefore, he finally decided that it was safest and safest to minimize the movement outside.
Li Youfu had lunch at the newly opened inn, and slept soundly in his room in the afternoon, and waited until the end of the afternoon, when he estimated that the workshop was about to end, and then he slowly paced to the "Harbor" winery.
He didn't change his position, but went to the original location on the second floor, ordered a lot of wine and food early, and waited for the blacksmith in the workshop to come over.
At the beginning of the unitary hour, the restless Li Youfu finally waited for the little blacksmith who got off work. He was still the same, and he found a table with a big grin, and when he sat down, he was going to order wine and food.
"Huh! Isn't this yesterday's little brother? Li Youfu leaned in affectionately.
"Oh, it turned out to be the master! You're here again? "The little blacksmith was a bit surprised.
"Well, so we're fated to do so. The Buddha said: There is a fate to meet thousands of miles away, but there is no fate to not know each other. Come on, come and sit together! Li Youfu greeted warmly.
"That's a good feeling!" The little blacksmith was also very happy when he saw that it was the bold monk who drank with him yesterday, so he sat down with Li Youfu.
"Master! I was invited yesterday, and today no matter what, I have to let us treat you! As soon as he sat down, the little blacksmith spoke first.
As a team leader with good skills, the little blacksmith's salary has now been increased to two taels a month, and there is really no shortage of this money for wine and food.
"You're welcome, little brother! But the Sprinkle family has already cleared the account, you just wait to drink! Li Youfu said with a smile.
"That, that ......" The little blacksmith wanted to take out the silver from his waist, but he was afraid that the monk would not want it, his expression was very embarrassed, he was not a person who loved to take advantage of others.
"Little brother, don't think about it. We, the old and the young, are meeting and falling in love! What are these two meals worth of wine and food? If you really have a heart, you can invite us again tomorrow. Li Youfu gave the little blacksmith a step down.
"Good! That's it. After work tomorrow, I will still be in this harbor winery, I invite you! The little blacksmith said magnificently.
While the two were talking, the food and wine were quickly served.
Today's abundance is much greater than yesterday's. A chicken called Hua, a braised fish, a plate of braised pork, a plate of fried meat with bamboo shoots, a plate of fried peanuts, plus two pots of Shaoxing rice wine. The end is incomparably rich!
"Eat, eat, eat! Don't be as polite as yesterday. Li Youfu tore off a chicken leg and handed it to the little blacksmith's plate.
"Great, master! You eat too! The little blacksmith squeaked as he munched on the drumsticks.
Hehe, to deal with these hard-working mud legs and untouchable craftsmen, Li Youfu is confident and has some ideas. As long as they are given enough wine and meat to let them taste a little sweetness, then they will not be obedient to their words in the future? The more Li Youfu thinks about it, the more beautiful he becomes.
"Come, little brother! Drink! Li Youfu waited for the little blacksmith to finish gnawing on the chicken legs, then picked up the wine bowl and beckoned him to drink together.
"Master, how do you call you?" The little blacksmith put down his chopsticks and asked.
"My surname is Lee! You can call our monk Li. Li Youfu replied with a smile.
"Then I'll call you Master Li! Hey. ”
"Little brother, what is your surname?" Li Youfu and the little blacksmith set up almost.
"My surname is Hu. The second in the family, called Hu Erniu! The little blacksmith replied honestly.
"That's good! In the future, our family will call you Hu Blacksmith! Li Youfu looked at the honest blacksmith Hu, and was secretly happy in his heart, it seems that this kid is easy to deal with.
"Come, come! Don't stop, keep drinking and eating! Li Youfu greeted Hu Erniu again.
"Uh-huh. You eat too! As he spoke, Blacksmith Hu took off a large piece of braised pork and put it in his mouth, and the corners of his mouth were oily from eating.
This kid hasn't eaten meat in years, hasn't he? Li Youfu was secretly slandering in his heart.
"Blacksmith Hu! How much money can you earn a month working in a workshop? Is there half a tael? Li Youfu asked tentatively.
"Huh!" Hu Jiang smirked and said, "Master guess again!" Half a tael of silver, now in Fushan Bay, that's enough to spend. ”
Listening to his tone, it seems that there is more than that? Li Youfu smiled and guessed again: "It's a tael of silver." ”
In these years, many places are working, and they can take care of their food, which is considered the benevolence and righteousness of the owner. Even in the city of Shenyang, the craftsmen who make cannons for Haoge now only have half a tael of silver a month. Moreover, if it is not done well, there is a danger of losing your head.
"The master just came to our Fushan Bay, right? Now ordinary workers, a month's salary, is already half a tael. We are the group leader, and we have two taels of silver a month. Blacksmith Hu said proudly.
"So much?" Li Youfu was taken aback. It seems that this thief surnamed Wang is really willing to spend money.
