At noon, on the way home.

Li Hongyu sat on the wall of the carriage as he had when he came, and closed his eyes and recuperated, and today Li Hongyu's threat made him very annoyed, and he must let this hateful fellow get the punishment he deserves.

"Young master, if anyone dares to bully you again, tell me, and I will teach him a lesson." After a while, Wang Tieniu, who was sitting opposite, couldn't hold back any longer, and said with a serious expression.

After he came into contact with some students in the academy today, he learned about Li Hongyu's bullying in the academy in the past two years, and he was upset about it in his heart, and wanted to give Li Hongyu a head.

"Tie Niu, do you have any good brothers at home?" Li Yuntian opened his eyes when he heard this, and asked after smiling slightly.

"There are several." Wang Tieniu nodded, he thought that Li Hongyu was worried that he would not be able to beat the other party alone, and then said proudly, "Young master, don't worry, I can deal with them alone!" ”

"The young master didn't let you go to fight, there are few people around the young master who can use themselves, you ask people to bring the letter back, the young master wants to hire your brothers and let them come to town tomorrow." Li Hongyu couldn't help laughing, force was the next step for him, and he wouldn't use it if it wasn't a last resort.

"Young master, they are all croppers who are digging in the field, I don't know what they can help the young master?" Wang Tieniu was stunned and looked at Li Hongyu with a puzzled expression.

"The young master has lost something, and I need them to help the young master find it!" A sly smile flashed at the corner of Li Yuntian's mouth, and he replied meaningfully.

Wang Tieniu couldn't help but scratch his head when he heard this, and the look in his eyes was even more puzzled, he didn't understand what Li Yuntian wanted his brothers to find, if they lost their valuables, they should report to the official.

However, Wang Tieniu was repeatedly told by Zizhu to ask less questions and do more things before he came, so even if he had doubts in his heart, he swallowed them back into his stomach.

"Mother, I took leave from my fourth uncle in the afternoon and was going to go to our shop." While eating lunch, Li Hongyu suddenly opened his mouth and said to Zhao.

"Oh?" Zhao didn't have the slightest psychological preparation, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked at Li Hongyu with some surprise, never expecting Li Hongyu to mention this matter.

"Mother, the child has never been to those shops, presumably the people in the shop don't know the child, and the child is about to become an adult, so that everyone knows what the child looks like." Li Hongyu smiled slightly and explained methodically.

Zhao's eyes couldn't help but show a look of surprise when she heard this, Li Hongyu's actions just now really startled her, and then turned her head and instructed Zizhu who was standing aside, "In the afternoon, you accompany the young master to the shop in the town for a trip, so that the people in the shop can meet the young owner." ”

Although Li Hongyu is young, due to the death of Li Renhai, he is already the helmsman of the Li family's third room, that is, the owner of the shopkeepers and men in the shops under the name of the Li family's third room.

For Zhao, Li Hongyu, who has been immersed in his studies, is willing to take time out to inspect his family's shop, which is a very rare and valuable thing, which means that Li Hongyu is undergoing the changes she wants to see.

"The servant obeys." Zizhu replied with a smile, she was the most trusted person around the Zhao family, so when Li Renhai was unfortunately killed and passed away, she became the right-hand man of the Zhao family to take care of the affairs of the Li family's three rooms, and knew a lot about the property under Li Hongyu's name.

The most prosperous neighborhood of Baihe Town is naturally the East Market that is connected to the wharf in the east of the town, and the spacious streets are densely lined with all kinds of shops of all sizes, crowded with people, noisy and extremely lively, and it is an important material transfer station in the Hanshui Basin.

The Li family is deeply rooted in Baihe Town, with strong strength, and the old man Li deliberately took care of the three rooms before he died, so Li Hongyu has a lot of industries under his name, and there are thousands of acres of fertile land in Baihe Town alone, and there are seven large and small shops, and there are one residence in Baihe Town, Xiangyang City and Nanjing City.

Among them, the most important thing in the Li family's three rooms is naturally the grain business, which can be said to have monopolized the grain market in Jiangkou County, and is an out-and-out piece of big fat, so Li Renhe wants to take it back in every possible way.

"Young master, this is our family's grain shop in the town!"

In front of a thriving grain store in Baihe Town, Zizhu and Li Hongyu got off a carriage, and after glancing at the people waiting in line to buy grain at the door of the store, Zizhu said to Li Hongyu hatefully, and his words seemed quite unwilling.

Just yesterday, this grain shop still belonged to Li Hongyu, but because of Li Renhe's "kindness", Li Hongyu lost it, you must know that grain is the most profitable business of the Li family, and with the rise in grain prices over the years, the Li family has made a lot of money from the grain business.

"Aunt Zi, is it a blessing for Saion to lose his horse? Maybe our future cloth business will surpass it. Li Hongyu heard that Zizhu had a lot of resentment in his heart, so he smiled and comforted him.

"Let's go, let's go to the cloth village in front." Saying that, Li Hongyu walked away, the Li family's cloth village was not far from the grain shop, since the grain shop had already belonged to Li Renhe, it was naturally inconvenient for him to go in.

Zizhu glared at the grain shop fiercely and caught up with Li Hongyu, she has put a lot of effort into the grain business in the past two years, who would have thought that the grain business would fly away from her hands in an instant, how could she swallow this resentment in her heart?

To be honest, Zizhu didn't take to heart what Li Hongyu said earlier about the cloth business surpassing the grain business, and just took it as a comforting word.

Zizhu has been busy dealing with the industry under the name of the Li family Sanfang in the past two years, and knows that shopping malls are like battlefields, full of traps and crises, so it is really difficult to break the existing business pattern and make a breakthrough in the fabric business.

The two guys in front of the grain store had already seen Zizhu, although they didn't know Li Hongyu, but they immediately guessed his identity from Li Hongyu's clothes and age, so one entered the house to inform the shopkeeper, and the other stepped forward to greet him.

Unexpectedly, before the greeting guy walked a few steps, Li Hongyu and Zizhu turned around and left, which made him pause, and looked at Li Hongyu and Zizhu and the others in surprise.

"What about people?" While the guy was standing there in a daze, a thin middle-aged man in his forties led several men out of the shop quickly, and this emaciated middle-aged man was the shopkeeper of the grain store, and asked after glancing around the street in front of the door.

"Let's go...... Let's go! The guy came back to his senses, pointed in the direction Li Hongyu had left, and said, "They went over there." ”

"Gone?" A stunned look suddenly appeared on the face of the emaciated middle-aged man, and he hurriedly looked over in surprise, and sure enough, he saw the backs of Li Hongyu and others, and couldn't help muttering to himself, "Why did you leave?" ”

The emaciated middle-aged man didn't expect Li Hongyu and Zizhu to leave like this, which greatly surprised him, and he thought that Zizhu was trying to find trouble.

Although Li Renhe forcibly seized the grain business as the patriarch, the exchange between the grain business and the cloth business was not easy, and the core matters involved were reconciliation and write-off, so that the handover could be completed, and Li Hongyu was required to sign the relevant documents and report to the Jiangkou County household for filing.

Obviously, now Li Hongyu is still the owner of the grain store, and the emaciated middle-aged man naturally does not dare to slack off, which does not mean how much he is in awe of Li Hongyu, but that it is a matter of etiquette and cannot be sloppy.

"Go, follow them, see what they're going to do?" After the initial stunned, the emaciated middle-aged man came back to his senses and whispered to a man standing beside him, who immediately followed quickly.

Although the owner of the emaciated middle-aged man is Li Hongyu, his master is Li Renhe, don't look at Zizhu who has been busy dealing with the industries under Li Hongyu's name in the past two years, in fact, she is in an embarrassing situation of being hollowed out, the only thing she can do is to check the accounts, everything is controlled by those in charge of the shop, and those people are basically Li Renhe's subordinates.

This is also one of the reasons why Li Hongyu gave up the grain business, the Li family's grain business has long been controlled by Li Renhe, even if he keeps the grain business, he will be constrained by many parties, and it will make outsiders see the Li family's jokes because of this matter, so it is better to simply give up and run the cloth business with all his might.

Although the location of Lijia Cloth Village is good and the façade is also very magnificent, the single business seems a little deserted, and there are only a few customers in the spacious lobby who are choosing fabrics.

After all, the leading merchant in the cloth business in Baihe Town is Guixihao, and those rich people in the town and county like to go to Guixihao's shops to buy fabrics, which greatly affects the business of Li's cloth village, no wonder Li Renhe wants to do everything possible to calculate the grain business under Li Hongyu's name.

At the door of the cloth village, a guy who was soliciting guests saw the oncoming Zizhu from a distance, and hurriedly went in to report to a pot-bellied shopkeeper who was pulling an abacus behind the counter.

"Steward Zizhu, you're a rare guest!"

The fat shopkeeper naturally knew about Li Renhe's transfer of the grain business and the cloth business, so he didn't dare to slack off and hurriedly greeted him with a smile on his face.

"Shopkeeper Yang, this is our Young Master Yu, this time I came to recognize the door, and Shopkeeper Yang will have to worry a lot about the business of Buzhuang in the future." Zizhu smiled and introduced Li Hongyu standing on the side to the fat shopkeeper, indicating that Li Hongyu has sovereignty over Buzhuang.

"It turned out to be Young Master Yu, please inside." The fat shopkeeper had actually guessed Li Hongyu's identity, and hurriedly bowed down and invited Li Hongyu and Zizhu into the cloth village, feeling quite surprised in his heart, it was rumored that Li Hongyu was a cowardly nerd by nature, and he didn't know why he came here.

Li Hongyu followed behind Zizhu without saying a word, although he wanted to inspect these industries under his name, but the person who came forward to deal with it was Zizhu, and it was really inconvenient for him to touch business matters with his current status.

In fact, Li Hongyu's target this time was not the shops in the town, but a residence in the town under his name, although it did not have the Li family's mansion, it occupied a vast area, but it was also a three-in, three-out house.

Therefore, Li Hongyu and Zizhu did not stay in the cloth village for a long time, and after Zizhu and the shopkeeper Yang exchanged a few words, they got up and left, in the end, the fabric business has not been officially handed over to Li Hongyu's hands, Zizhu is not good to say anything, just take Li Hongyu to recognize the door, and the shopkeeper Yang hurriedly led his men to send him to the door.

"Weird! Shopkeeper, why did the Zizhu steward come to our Buzhuang, and there is also Young Master Yu? ”

At the entrance of Buzhuang, looking at the back of Li Hongyu and Zizhu and his party leaving, a guy leaned in front of the shopkeeper Yang who frowned slightly and asked suspiciously, this phenomenon is extremely abnormal, you must know that Li Hongyu usually lives in a simple place, and it is the first time he has seen Li Hongyu until now.

"Go, tell Uncle about this." Shopkeeper Yang pondered for a while, then frowned and ordered the guy that he was going to report this unusual thing to Li Renhe.
