Originally, Li Yongji was still worried about how to explain to his family the pile of things that suddenly appeared in the room, but when he came out, he found that his parents, brother, and Uncle Li, that is, Li Fu, the old family servant, went out to the countryside to collect grain early in the morning.

In this way, there are only three people in the entire Li family's mansion, including him, and among these three people, in addition to him, the other two are a middle-aged woman in her forties named Li Chen, and an eighteen-year-old young man named Li Jinbao.

Speaking of which, let's first talk about Li Yongji's family situation in this life.

Although the Li family is a grain merchant who has been inherited for two generations, not only opening a grain shop in the town, but also having 500 acres of land outside the city, which looks quite good, but in fact it is still a small grain merchant and a small businessman. According to the point of view of later generations, this grain store is the scale of a small supermarket, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a larger mom-and-pop store.

At present, there are a total of seven people in the entire Li family's household registration, namely Li Zhengxiang, the head of the family, Li Zhengxiang's wife Li Wang, Li Wang's eldest son Li Yongchang, his youngest son Li Yongji, domestic servant Li Fu, Li Fu's wife Li Chen, and his son Li Jinbao.

Originally, there was also a Li Xiu, who was the second daughter of Li Wang's family, that is, Li Yongji's second sister, but because she was already married, she was not on the Li family's household registration.

In this family, from high to low, they are the head of the family Li Zhengxiang, his wife Li Wang, Li Wang's eldest son Li Yongchang, his youngest son Li Yongji, and then Li Xiu, who married out, and then the domestic servant Li Fu, Li Fu's wife Li Chen and their son Li Jinbao.

Now, Li Zhengxiang and his wife, eldest brother Li Yongchang and Li Fu have all gone to collect grain together, according to normal speaking, it will take at least three or five days to come back after going to the countryside to collect grain, and if it is long, it is possible to collect grain in ten days and half a month.

It is precisely because he has been out for a long time and Li Yongji is still young, so the family must not only leave someone to watch the store, but also leave someone to take care of Li Yongji, such as buying vegetables and cooking.

Obviously, Li Fu's son Li Jinbao was left to watch the store, and Li Chen, that is, Li Jinbao's own mother, took care of Li Yongji.

In fact, the parents were going out to collect grain, because the family had explained it yesterday, and Li Yongji had known about it for a long time, but he hadn't thought of it before.

In other words, although there are currently three people in the family, Li Chen and Li Jinbao are both subordinates of the family, so Li Yongji, the little young master, does not need to explain anything to Chen's mother and Li Jinbao at all, in short, he is currently the natural boss of the family.

If Li Yongji's parents and brothers were there, his behavior of running back halfway would inevitably be questioned by these people, but now after he ran back, what he got in exchange was Chen's mother's cold and warmth, such as asking if he was hungry, whether he was uncomfortable, etc., this is the difference.

Because no matter how close Chen's mother is to herself, her identity is there, and it is impossible to be casually accountable and scolded like her own mother, which is the same as the nanny who has lived with her master for a long time in later generations, even if she is usually close, it is definitely impossible to care about the children of the master's family.

casually found a master who had something to do today, and sent Chen's mother away under the pretext of leaving school early, and then asked them not to enter their own room to disturb them on the grounds that Wen Shu needed to be quiet.

After that, Li Yongji locked the door, and while inspecting the goods from Zhang Xinda in his room, he remembered what was on his mind.

Rice or something, there is nothing to check, it is all rice that has not been hulled, at most it is a modern product, and the grains are fuller.

It is easy to understand why it is not hulled, because the price of hulled rice is higher, not to mention, it is also easy to rot and deteriorate, and only the rice that has not been hulled can be put and easier to dump in this world.

As for other things, such as silver ingots, medicines, stainless steel products, etc., it is not shoddy to see.

After taking a moment to roughly read everything, Li Yongji roughly estimated the value of this batch of goods. Not counting the grain, the total price of these medicines, silver, stainless steel products, toiletries and other haberdashery products is likely to exceed 50,000 yuan, plus the grain that cost 30,000 yuan, Zhang Xinda spent 80,000 yuan on this pile of things!

What is this concept? This shows that Zhang Xinda has spent all the money he made for the down payment to buy a house, which is a real blood investment!

Because Li Yongji knows very well that Zhang Xinda does not have much savings, and his savings in modern times are even less, and the gold bracelet and jade pendant that he gave him before are far from being more than these things.

Therefore, this is equivalent to Zhang Xinda using his own family money to invest in advance.

Of course, if you think about it carefully, this is normal, if you change it, you must seize such an opportunity, and you must also invest in advance. If there is no investment, where is the return?

Now that I think about it, it was definitely wise to choose him as a surrogate instead of looking for some relatives. Because most of the time, this kind of brother who has no blood relatives and no classmates is the most reliable, but those relatives are the ......

Thinking of this, Li Yongji shook his head.

In his previous life, or in modern society, although his father died early, his mother had diabetes, and the family situation was relatively grim, but there were many other relatives, and most of them were very rich, among which there was a third uncle who was still developing real estate, with a net worth of more than 100 million, but he didn't care about his family, which led him to be so difficult, and he had to work hard to make money to supplement his family, and he didn't dare to think about his own affairs at all.

The classmates are similar, how can he say that he is also an undergraduate student from a 985 school, on this basis, many students are relatively good, but most of them are just bragging about showing off their wealth in the group of classmates.

However, Zhang Xinda, the same tenant he met later, was not well-off himself, but he helped himself in the most difficult time, so that he could continue to maintain himself later.

Li Yongji had long thought that anyway, as long as he didn't live up to him, he would definitely not fail himself! Even if you get rich in the future, it's the same!

In this regard, he is very confident, because in Zhang Xinda and himself, he sees the natural attributes of grassroots people like them - poverty does not bully each other, and wealth does not forget each other! There is kindness to repay kindness, and there is revenge to revenge!

Thinking of this, Li Yongji smiled and shook his head, no longer taking these mother-in-law and mother-in-law matters to heart, and continued to think about realistic things.

It is true that Zhang Xinda, who was born in writing historical essays, has a lot of merits for his own construction, especially in the pouring of grain and precious metals, which is very constructive, but after all, he is talking on paper, not himself, and some details are not as clear as himself.

No matter what you want to do in the future, no matter what you want to do in the future, you must have a channel, or a base, and to put it simply, there must be a place where you can do these things safely, and this qiē is to sum up, it is necessary to have a good starting environment!

Obviously, the place where I am currently located is not a good environment for development, at least for my golden finger, it is not good.

Li's house is a commercial street mainly for buying and selling grain, similar to the bazaar for selling grain in later generations. In such an environment, it is decided that most of the residents living here are grain merchants like the Li family or merchants in related industries, plus merchants and farmers who come from outside to buy or sell grain, so the population density here is relatively large and the mobility is relatively strong.

Here, the family situation between the neighbors is almost the same, and because most of the residences are for commercial and residential purposes, each other's backyards are separated by a wall, and the wall is low enough to be easily climbed over with Li Yongji's current physique, and once he speaks loudly, the neighbors can also hear it, and the so-called distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, which is the case.

In this atmosphere, it is not uncommon for neighbors to walk around each other, and as a result, there are few secrets to hide from each other.

It can be said that if Li Yongji didn't spit things in his own house, if he spit in the yard, I'm afraid it won't be long before his strange situation will be known by his neighbors, and then it will be absolutely endless trouble, even if he spits in his room now, if the goods continue to be here, it won't be long before this secret will be kept.

Once discovered by outsiders, Li Yongji can't say a plausible reason to explain the origin of these things, just talking about fairies and ghosts, then he is a child, and it is unlikely that he will fool the past. Because in this world, people will not tell you about human rights and privacy.

In the past, the neighbors were in a similar situation with each other, knowing the roots, maintaining a balance, once the news leaked out, the so-called wealth was moving, and it may not be possible for them to be immersed in the pig cage at that time, but it is likely to be monitored, which is really annoying.

In Li Yongji's view, the biggest problem at present is actually the living environment, and the resulting privacy issues, that is, confidentiality issues, as for other issues, they are all later.

Therefore, the top priority is to find a relatively quiet and secluded house with relatively few neighbors as a warehouse, in other words, to change the living environment and leave this place with almost no privacy at all!

Otherwise, once you conjure up a bunch of things out of thin air, it will appear very abrupt, and you will inevitably be suspicious of the neighbors around you who know everything and gossip because of the lack of entertainment!

Thinking of this, Li Yongji decided to take the initiative to change places to develop, and to be fast, to do this before his parents came back!

Only by relying on one's own strength to lay a piece of one's own territory can one not be constrained by other aspects and usher in future development!

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and then the sound of Chen's mother calling for dinner.

It turned out that before I knew it, it was noon at this time, that is, after eleven o'clock at noon, and in this era, this point is the time for lunch.

After agreeing, he locked the door and went out, and then came to the main hall, and found that a table had been set up in the middle of the main hall, on which was a bowl of rice, a bowl of soup and two side dishes, and only a pair of chopsticks.

Although the Li family is not a big family, due to the characteristics of the times, the distinction between the upper and lower is also very clear, and it also has its own rules, even when it comes to eating.

For example, now, although Li Zhengxiang and the others are not at home, since Li Yongji, the young master, is here, the main meal of three meals a day must be set up in the main hall to eat, and not in the bedroom by himself, which is only possible with extra food such as supper.

Another rule is that the subordinates can't go to the main table when they eat, and the host and the subordinates are absolutely different from each other to eat, so there is only a pair of bowls and chopsticks here, and Chen's mother and Li Jinbao will generally cook and eat in the kitchen after serving Li Yongji after eating.

Of course, as a non-big family, if Li Yongji can't finish eating and there is much left, then Li Jinbao and Chen's mother can also eat these leftovers. Generally speaking, the owner of a better non-large family will deliberately leave some meals when eating, and give these meals to his subordinates after eating, which is equivalent to saving in disguise, such people are called good masters, and the Li family also has this custom.

Since in this era, Li Yongji has no intention of deliberately changing, so he just finished eating the rice in his bowl as a few days ago, deliberately only ate a plate of small pickles, and drank porridge, which means that he is full. After that, it was Chen's mother who cleaned up the meal, and then went to the kitchen with Li Jinbao to eat by herself.

At this time, Li Yongji also thought about what he was going to do next, so he went back to his room, picked out a few things and put them on his body, then went out again and locked the door, and found Li Jinbao, who had just come out after eating and planned to continue to look at the front of the store.

"What? The little master wants to go to the tooth shop? After listening to Li Yongji's words, Li Jinbao asked strangely, "What are you doing there?" ”

"Curious, can you go and visit?" Li Yongji smiled.

The so-called tooth shop, in fact, is a middleman who matches the transaction between the buyer and the seller, this kind of middleman plays a role in the transaction of "evaluating prices" and "trading with traders", controlling the market and managing commerce on behalf of the government, so the power is quite large, and the scope of business is also quite extensive.

After the Song Dynasty, with the development of the commodity economy, there was gradually a distinction between official teeth and private teeth, and after the Qing Dynasty, the tooth shop must hold the tooth post issued by the government, and there was a clear restriction on the tooth person, but in fact the restriction was limited.

In the Qing Dynasty, the functions of the dental bank developed from introducing transactions, providing warehousing, food and lodging to self-operated trading, valet advances, debt collection, transportation, unloading, customs declaration, pre-purchase and loans to farmers and handicraftsmen. In addition to commissions, the income of dental shops also includes business profits, loan interest, service remuneration, etc., but this type of dental shops is a minority.

Among them, the official teeth of the Qing Dynasty are mainly those who occupy the mainstream trade circulation fields such as salt and grain, such as the Thirteen Banks of Guangdong, as well as the former Huaiyang salt merchants, many of whom are in this category, and they can no longer be simply called tooth people, but industry monopolies.

In the Qing Dynasty, the private teeth were mainly engaged in certain service industries, such as human trafficking, land and house sales, etc., which were a supplement to the official teeth, that is, middlemen who were really close to the market.

To put it simply, the tooth people in the general mouth of the common people during this period actually mainly refer to those private teeth, those official teeth, which have long since transformed into another class.

Despite this, private teeth are also quite reliable, because the "Qing Dynasty Regulations" stipulate that dental merchants must be honest and good citizens, have a joint insurance and ganjie, and only one person is allowed to operate a dental shop. The official office will issue a document book to the dental store to register the name of the merchant's residence, and send it to the official office every month. There are specific provisions on price assessment, receipt and payment of money, receipt and payment of commodities and other businesses.

Therefore, most of the people who have an identity background and have a certain degree of credibility in the government and the people, the transaction through the hands of the tooth people, it is equivalent to going to the notary office to notarize, the most reassuring but, in case of transaction disputes afterwards, the contract passed by the tooth people is also easier to get the support of the government.

That's right, the tooth shop that Li Yongji is going to is this kind of private tooth, looking for them, just to find someone to buy or rent a quiet house, so as to facilitate his time and space smuggling transactions with modern society in the future!

As for why he came to Li Jinbao, in addition to being not very familiar with the surrounding environment, it is also because Li Yongji's current identity is a thirteen-year-old child. For a child of his age, if he went out alone, even in the town, it would not be safe, after all, this was not the kind of safe and secure place in the future.

In fact, due to the complicated environment, in addition to guarding the door, Li Jinbao also has an important duty to take care of the little master, such as picking up and dropping off school or something, and once Li Yongji wants to go out, he generally has to follow.

There is no way, in this era of chaos, if there is an adult to follow, a child like him will go out casually, maybe he will be taken away by gangsters and sold for money in the blink of an eye. And Li Yongji is usually constantly taught that if you want to go out, don't go far, you must find Li Jinbao to follow.

In addition to these reasons, Li Jinbao, as the son of the Li family's domestic servant, is the so-called domestic slave, relatively speaking, he is relatively reliable in terms of loyalty, and although he is only eighteen years old, he grew up in this environment since he was a child, and he still has the necessary experience, and he understands some people and knows some of the things he wants to do in the future, which will inevitably be very incomprehensible, so he knows that it is not a big problem first.

Sure enough, hearing Li Yongji say that he was just going to visit, Li Jinbao, who was idle and panicked, was also moved, and just took the opportunity to go out for a stroll, anyway, there is a tooth shop nearby, all on the same street, everyone knows each other, and there will be no problems.

"I'll take you there." Li Jinbao looked back and continued to whisper, "Then you have to promise me, don't run around on the road, and just go to see it and come back, and don't say that we have been to that place when you come back." ”

"Well, I know, I just said to let you take me out for a walk, breathe, digest and digest food." Li Yongji smiled.

In this way, after explaining to Chen's mother, that is, Li Chen's family, Li Yongji didn't make much effort, and went out with Li Jinbao.
