"Young Master, according to your orders, the wooden box customized at Carpenter Tan's house on South Street."

Li Boyan took the box, glanced left and right a few times, and said, "Lao Tan's craftsmanship has regressed." He vaguely remembered that the pile of green pine ornaments placed on the Li family hall at the beginning were vivid, and finally his father collected them to the Zhuangzi by the lake.

The wooden box in front of me is indeed a little poorly carved, and the facial features of the birthday star are crooked, so unsightly.

Li Qijin looked embarrassed and said: "Carpenter Tan said, the weather has been hot and humid in recent days, and his hands hurt badly, so he let the apprentice carve it, how much it will be done, if the son is not satisfied, he will have to wait for some time." ”

"Yes, it's just a box, thanks to the monosodium glutamate on Zhuangzi that is used in glass bottles, otherwise the work will be handed over to Lao Tan, and it is estimated that the daylilies will be cold."

Li Qijin asked: "The young master is going to Hefu to celebrate his birthday today, just that box is a little inappropriate, right?" ”

Li Boyan smiled and said: "Naturally, you have to pack something, you go and prepare the carriage, and I will arrive later." With that, he walked into the warehouse, and when he came out, the wooden box was already heavily filled.

He looked sideways, and just saw Qiu Jianmei waving a long sword, so he said, "Iceberg Woman, what about practicing martial arts?" Don't want a leg? ”

"You have to take care of it!" Qiu Jinmei replied coldly.

Li Boyan held the box, shook his head and left, this thief can really talk to death.

……

……

The He family's longevity was originally something that Li Kangda should worry about, but his father was the shopkeeper, and now he is a free landlord on the shore of the lake, so he is naturally too lazy to go.

Originally, Li Boyan was too lazy to move. This time, if you want to pit the He family, you naturally have to practice it, otherwise how can you say it and avenge the revenge of the white building.

Before the carriage of the Li Mansion had stopped outside the Yuebo Tower, Chu Dazui stood in front of Li Boyan with a dead face.

"What? I owe you money? When Li Boyan saw Chu Mingzhe's appearance, he said sourly.

Chu Mingzhe looked angry and said, "The red sleeves made you out of the limelight alone." I haven't fished it yet, my family doesn't believe that the money is from you, they all think that I have a red sleeve account on credit, and I have been confined for two months, if it weren't for He Mingde's birthday this time, Lao Tzu is still squatting at home, you say, this account, is it counted on your head? ”

"Okay, okay, brother, can't I compensate you?"

Chu Mingzhe shook off Li Boyan's hand and said angrily: "Who are your brothers?" Go away! ”

Li Boyan saw that Chu Mingzhe was still angry, so he said: "Why Yuqing was cloudy that night, aren't you also very happy?" What are you talking about here? ”

Chu Mingzhe snorted: "You madman is bullish, now that you have rented the White Building, the tenants of the Li family are exempt from Ding tax and household tax, and the whole Yongzhou thinks that you are crazy, completely crazy!" ”

"Isn't that great? At least the Li family's land is not idle, it is better than long wild grass. ”

Chu Mingzhe leaned closer and said, "You're crazy!" Now that the tax is so heavy, this is to remove the Ding tax and household tax, and you are exempted from part of the field tax, what do you earn? Do you make money at a loss? ”

"What do you care about me? I'd love to. ”

Chu Mingzhe was speechless, and said: "I am entrusted by my father this time, and I came to ask you, what do you want to do, dozens of tenants of our Chu family have all gone to your Li family's Zhuangzi, this summer sowing has lost a lot of harvest, and the tenants on the village are clamoring to be exempted from Ding tax and household tax, you are obviously doing something!" ”

Li Boyan smiled slightly, "What are you afraid of?" The sky is falling, with your father, no matter how bad it is, and your good brothers, no matter how you turn to be in charge, don't panic. ”

"Tell me more! In the past, the monthly money was seven or eight times, but now, Lao Tzu has no son! Gone! My father said, if this matter is not resolved, he will not give me monthly money in the future, you can watch it, it depends on you whether your buddy is dead or alive. ”

Li Boyan instructed Qijin to carry the wooden box, and while talking, he walked towards Yuebo Tower.

"Your father doesn't release the monthly money, will I let it go to you?"

"Really? What about the conditions? ”

Li Boyan laughed and said, "Conditions? I didn't think about it, I'll talk about it later. ”

"You're just talking about it."

……

……

Today, the old lady of the He family is on his birthday, and this moon wave building is lit up inside and out, with a festive color. Yongzhou wealthy families are coming one after another, and the gift boxes at the door are piled up like a hill.

He Changqian, the eldest son of the younger generation of the He family, stood at the door to greet the guests. Seeing Li Boyan coming, he hurriedly stepped forward, squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "Da Lang is here, please hurry up." Didn't my uncle come over? ”

"My father occasionally contracted the wind and cold, and he was conditioning in the village, so he didn't come. Seven pounds, send things up. Mrs. He's family is full of wealth, there is no shortage of gold or silver, and she has a little courtesy, and she hopes to accept it with a smile. ”

"Da Lang is polite. It's a pity that my uncle can't come, it's a longevity noodle today, but the old man cooks it himself, and the old man hasn't moved the spoon for a long time. ”

"That's a shame."

Chu Mingzhe followed in, muttering in a low voice, "A bowl of broken noodles makes it seem like the emperor Lao Tzu is under him personally, what's bullish?" ”

Li Boyan glanced at it, "There are really a lot of people here." Lao Zhou and Lao Pan have arrived. ”

"Who's family celebrates the New Year's holidays, don't order such a table or two tables of wine and food in Yuebo Building, and they are familiar with each other, so they naturally have to give Old Man He a face, I heard, Dalang, you rent the White Building, just to do it against Yuebo Building?"

Li Boyan smiled: "It's too affordable." ”

"The location of the white building does not have to be poor, please invite a few good cooks, the business will definitely be thriving, and the big man does not have to be arrogant."

Li Boyan smiled, he meant that he looked up to the He family too much.

"By the way, it is rumored that the rent of Bailou is 1,000 yuan per year, and it is a joke to think about it, how much do you spend on rent? I guess it's about two hundred, right? ”

"It's a thousand."

"A thousand kans!" Chu Dazui exclaimed, attracting the attention of the people around him, and then lowered his voice and said, "I said you were crazy." What kind of business can make a thousand yuan a year, and Yuebo Lou doesn't have this running water, are you really crazy? ”

"Huh." Li Boyan didn't explain, others were not optimistic, that would be the first to make money, otherwise who would spend such a lot of money to rent a white building for no reason.

Pan Chao came over with a black face, these days, he is not comfortable, the monthly money is less, life is uncomfortable, and he complained when he came up: "Da Lang, you have hurt us." ”

"Mingzhe has a reason, just complain to me, why do you come to me to pour bitter water?"

"Tell me more. Last year, we originally expanded 500 acres of paddy fields, pointing to this year's harvest, but now it is good, there are fewer tenants, and those tenants who remain are not picked by your old Li family, a hundred unwilling, a thousand are not angry, and they are lazy to work! The elders in the family are all anxious, and it took a lot of money to stabilize these tenants, and this unjust money is counted on our juniors, and half of the monthly money is deducted, you pay, you pay! ”

Li Boyan rolled his eyes and said, "You can rely on me for this?" ”

Many gentlemen in Yongzhou, as if they had found a punching bag, gathered around Li Boyan and said in unison:

"It's up to you!"
