Chapter 6: Cutting Through the Mess [3/4]
Mrs. Guo took her three unlucky children with her.
Before leaving, I also talked to Lan Li about the cliché that 'the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of women'.
As for the purpose?
It's not that you're eyeing the Lan family's industry.......
The reason why Guo Xiang and the other three came may be that they voluntarily came to avenge Yue Lei.
But after watching Huang Rong's performance.
Among them, if it is said that there is no meaning of Huang Rong, Lan Li will definitely not believe it.
If not, Guo Fu would not have coincidentally said that the Lan family was 'selling arms'.
And this Mrs. Guo had to wait for her daughter to finish her words before she started to knock her daughter unconscious.
Just imagine, if there is no foreshadowing from Guo Fu, how would Huang Rong open her mouth?
Do you just come to the door and say it?
With the matter of 'Mrs. Guo's arrival' in the front, there are obviously fewer people who come to the Lan family to ask for a meeting next.
Well, the few are the small ones, and they are waiting to see the limelight.
As for 'high rollers' like the fat prince......
That's really coming as you want, and you don't have to take anyone's opinion into account.
Another table of feasts was opened to entertain the fat prince.
During this period, Lan Li also inquired a little about the energy of the fat prince from the side.
The answer made Lan Li cry and laugh.
This fat prince is really broad-hearted and fat, and he knows that there are a large number of civil servants who act in his name, but people don't care at all.
It's time to eat, it's time to drink, don't put it on the back burner....
Until the fat prince is sent away.
It seems that he has been served, and the fat prince who is in a happy mood mentions a blue gift:
"Virtuous son-in-law, don't be a bad thing for you to marry a royal woman.
Those who shout that their son-in-law has a bad reputation and delays their husband's life.... Boom... How many of them are out of the picture?
Look at those who are really capable, how many of them are comfortable on weekdays?
So, something's going on.
Everyone turned a blind eye, and that's it.
Marry a county lord and go back.
Before she dies of old age, won't you be stable in this life? ”
As he spoke, the fat prince looked at the greasy face and squeezed his eyes at Lan Li.
Lan Li: "......"
You're old and yours!
After dealing with the fat prince.
Back to the bedroom.
Green Yi was still busy settling accounts, and Lan Li was lying on the bed alone.
After thinking for a moment, he blinked:
"This is to see that I beat Yue Lei, and I think there is a contradiction between Lan Fu and General Yue?
So.
Want to use Huang Rong's hand to test it first? ”
Thinking of this, Lan Li rolled on the bed quite bored.
I didn't pay any attention to these things.....
If there is still something possible that the Liuli Factory side will be replaced by Lanli.
The aspect of the iron overseer is to love whoever he wants.
How big are these people's hearts?
Not to mention that Xiangyang City is leaning on the edge of Wudang Mountain.
Let's just say that the Lan family, a wealthy businessman who has mastered the fine iron weapons of the Great Song Dynasty, if he breaks his share for a year and a half at this time.....
Who will make up for the emperor's lost income?
Salt! Iron! Salt! Iron!
These two substances are the lifeblood of the nation!
Especially in the context of troubled ancient times, only iron is a benefit, and no one wants to stick to it!
Why can the Lan family do this kind of business?
Because of the technology?
This has been included in the scope of the Imperial Merchant!
First, because the profits of the Lan family, compared with the official system of the Southern Song Dynasty, are extremely low.
Save money!
The second reason is that this is the appeal of Yue Pengju, the general.
As for the third?
It's for Zhang Sanfeng's sake.....
Zhang Sanfeng, the Dinghai God Needle, you don't want to try your best to appease, what should you do if someone is upset one day and runs to pick your head?
Everyone understands this.
But there are still people who owe the money and want to try it......
"Let's do it one by one..."
The thoughts in his mind were a little confused, and he was tired of thinking, so Lan Li didn't think about it.
"Green, come here."
"The slave is here."
The green clothes who were settling accounts put down the brush in his hand and walked to Lan Li's side.
"You go and tell Fu Lu, from tomorrow, the Blue Mansion will be closed to guests, and no matter who comes, they will not be seen!"
How old is it?
Whoever wants it, reach out!
He wanted to see which one had such long claws!
Wang Chongyang's disciples have more than 50,000 disciples, and there are countless properties under his name.
Does anyone dare to reach out?
Even the Mongols plotted against the great master's inheritance, and they had to discuss!
If one doesn't go well, the great grandmaster kills one hundred and eighty people.
Do you see anyone interjecting?
Aren't they all holding back?
"Childe, this is not good, the doormen in the next seven days will agree...."
"I can't see it, is there a problem?"
"This...."
Green Yi had the heart to persuade a few more words, it can be seen that Lan Li is serious, after thinking about it, she still ran to find the old housekeeper.
What Childe said, whether it is right or wrong, is right.
Looking at her departing back, Lan Li was stunned for a moment.
Suddenly, a chuckle came out of his mouth:
"It's no wonder that cultivators pay attention to the practice of being born.
If you waste your time on these intrigues every day, where is there still time to practice martial arts? ”
Green ran out for almost a quarter of an hour.
After that, he ran back beautifully.
saw her pounce on the bed, and the whole person curled up into Lan Li's arms.
"What's wrong?"
"I can finally rest..."
"You...."
Glancing at the lamp still burning on the table, Lan Li pointed his finger.
A burst of energy.
The candle flame goes out in an instant.
The whole room went dark.
"Green."
"Well, the slave is here."
"Remind me tomorrow."
"Remind Childe of something?"
"Remind me to take you out to play. Anyway, you haven't been out for a long time, have you? ”
"Hmm... The last time the slave maid went out, she still went to Wudang Mountain...."
......
......
The next day.
After Lan Li returned home, he finally experienced the taste of sleeping until dawn.
Cleaning, washing, and breakfast.
Everything is going on in an orderly manner.
The Blue Mansion that is closed is still the Blue Mansion, and there will be no lack of something because of how many people are missing.
It was the lament on the face of Old Fulu.
It seems that he is annoyed by Lan Li's inaction.
After eating, seeing that Lao Fulu was still crying and mourning, Lan Li glared at him angrily and said:
"If you have something, say it, and if you have nothing to do, get out.
Pulling a face day by day, do you think that your son-in-law and I are in a better mood, hindering your old eyes? ”
"It's not Childe.... Ay!
Today, you have an appointment with seven young ladies to meet in the Full Moon Tower! ”
"I didn't! Don't fall on me! ”
"This...."
Seeing that Lan Li was playing a scoundrel, the old housekeeper couldn't laugh or cry on his face.
After thinking for a moment, he sighed again:
"Childe, why don't you make a few more trips to General Yue's mansion in the next few days?"
"No, you don't."
Wiping his mouth with the silk handkerchief handed over by the green clothes, Lan Li chuckled and replied:
"You don't have to think about anything, you don't have to do anything, just help me take care of the gate of the Blue Mansion."
"But this... Childe, there are thousands of mouths waiting to eat at home..."
"I'm missing your food?"
"Childe, where did you say..."
Old Fu Lu grinned:
"I just don't stare at it, I can't rest assured that this old thing...."
"Don't worry?" Lan Li looked at him with a smile.
"Well, when I'm older, I always want to put everything in front of me to watch, manage, and be busy, otherwise my heart will feel empty."
"It's time for you to find a wife...."
Chat ends with family affairs.
What Lan Li and Lao Fulu said was naturally a joke.
But the matter of asking him to find a wife is sincere.
Of course, in addition to this, it is also true that he can take care of his home with peace of mind.
Yesterday I promised to go out to play in Green.
Then this morning, Lan Li took her by car and ran all the way to Wudang Mountain!
Arrived at the stone steps at the foot of the mountain.
The two of them raised their heads and looked at the mountain road that spiraled all the way up in front of them.
The corner of Lan Li's mouth hooked:
"Green clothes, you say, if I give the glass factory to my master now, what kind of expressions will those people under the mountain have?"
Hearing this, Green Yi looked at Lan Li in shock.
"Don't look at me, my master has no children under his knees, and the two senior brothers are not good for fighting, and in the end, this thing still falls into your son-in-law's pocket."
As she spoke, Lan Li walked up the mountain with her green clothes.
"Childe is right."
Being held by Lan Li, Green Yi only felt dizzy and dizzy, and he couldn't understand what Lan Li meant at all.
"Poof, I'm so unfulfilled like you!"
Lan Li turned her head to glare at her.
"What do you mean, Childe..."
"You should ask, what if my master accepts another apprentice and changes.
Or what if my master donates the glaze factory to Wudang?
If it doesn't work, he can't say that he can still work hard with his sister and give birth to a little junior brother for me, right? ”
"That's right! That's right! Son! So what to do? ”
Hearing Lan Li say this, Green Yi was anxious.
Grabbing Lan Li's sleeve, he didn't want to go up the mountain.
That cute little appearance, Lan Li laughed out loud.
Reaching out and rubbing it on the nose of the green clothes, Lan Li smiled and carried her on her back.
The face of the green clothes is red.
"Then give it to Wudang!"
"Huh?"
"Whatever you say, it's my teacher."
"It's not... Childe...."
"Don't worry, listen to me slowly."
Shaking his head, Lan Li's hand behind his back lifted upward, and the face of the green cloth turned even redder.
"The things are handed over, and you can still find someone who knows how to make glass when you are in Wudang, and you can't replace it by running down?
Everything is still done by our family, as for the livelihood and income, who is not handed over?
We only charge operating fees........"
"Huh? How is that the same...."
"Well, I don't know if you've heard of it, Wudang's industry doesn't need to pay taxes, we can directly ....... this money"
Laughing, Lan Li had already carried the green clothes to Wudang Mountain.
"Senior Brother Mingyue, you're back!"
The disciple in charge of duty saw it and said hello to Lan Li.
In other words, it's only been a few years, and he's become someone else's brother?
Nodding with a smile, Lan Li threw a qi tonic pill from his pocket to him.
Joy for the disciple on duty......
Greeting the familiar brothers along the way, Lan Li carried her directly to Yu Daiyan's yard under the little girl's 'reluctant' expression.
When she arrived, Lan Li instructed her not to talk too much.
And then........
"Master! Your apprentice was bullied outside!! ”8)
