Lifting the cover on the carriage, Ma Ping suddenly chuckled in his heart, and he could see at a glance that the quality of this batch of tiles was very different from the previous ones.

Quietly picking up a piece, Ma Ping was even more sure, the car tiles in front of him were more falling than before, the surface was smooth, there were no rough sand holes, just like the usual pottery bowls and pots.

Li Dashi's family is crazy? Actually use pottery-grade quality to burn terracotta? Not afraid of losing your life?

The ultra-high-quality tiles made Ma Ping a little embarrassed, so how could he find an excuse to refuse it?

Others are not stupid, the good tiles that can be seen at a glance are rejected by him, and when there is trouble, everyone will know that he is making evil, then his sin will be great.

Even in normal times, as Liu Zhuang's fourth housekeeper, if he makes it clear that he is embarrassed by a broken potter, the head of the family will not only not care, but may also complain that he is not straightforward, and the ant-like figure will be pinched to death quickly.

But now is a critical moment for repairing the ancestral house, a rare major event in Liu Zhuang, if he dares to do something bad in this situation, the head of the family may pick his skin.

And recently, the cousin young master who can't rub a grain of sand in his eyes has come, and if that person knows, it will be a big trouble.

I really wanted to come to something, a string of hurried horses' hooves came from far and near, and a young man dressed in white rushed to the village gate like a whirlwind, his hand pressed on the saddle, and his whole body bounced.

The speed of the mount did not slow down and rushed out, while the young man in white landed freely, tapping two strides on his toes, and nailed to the ground steadily, showing a good martial arts.

This young man is about eighteen years old, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes like a crown of jade, dressed in white, graceful and handsome, and the surrounding village girls and village girls have shining, which also makes a bad old man like Ma Ping ashamed of himself, and he bows his hand from afar.

This young man in white is the young master of the table that Ma Ping was afraid of just now, purple silk, the word Qingshu, eighteen years old, but he is strong in martial arts, and he is currently the captain of the Yuncang Army.

The Zi family is a big family in the border area, the Yuncang Army is a rare strong army in the world, and the scout cavalry is the elite of the elite in the army.

The housewife of the Liu family is Ziqingshu's aunt, and Ziqingshu also happened to be transferred to the nearby border pass, and came to congratulate him on the way.

But it is worthy of being a big family, if Liu Zhuang falls and dies a horse, the head of the family will have to be heartbroken for several days, but Ziqingshu is like no one, and he continues to practice with another one, because he and his eighteen generals are all one person and two horses, and four pack horses.

This young master is honest and kind, he can't rub a grain of sand in his eyes, and before he came, the head of the family told him not to make him angry, otherwise he would be dragged down and killed. So these days, those arrogant and domineering bastards in Zhuangzi have been driven far away, for fear of provoking Ziqingshu.

Zi Qingshu walked quickly past the carriage, and the corner of his eye swept to the tile cart on the carriage, which made him involuntarily slow down, his eyes fell on the tiles, and he nodded and said, "The tiles are good." ”

At least in terms of appearance, the smooth and flat tiles are really good, and you don't need to touch them to know that they are good things.

Ziqingshu just said politely, the mud tiles could let him take a look more, or because he was conspicuous enough in front of the door, and after praising it, he walked away quickly.

Ma Ping bowed to the side, and didn't straighten up until Ziqingshu walked away, and sighed in his heart, it's okay now, don't think about this kind of method of picking faults and refusing to accept them, even the young master said that it was a good thing, if he dared to find faults, wouldn't he be looking for death?

He could only accept it, but Ma Ping's eyes rolled, and he immediately thought of another way, turned his head and said to Li Qiye: "These tiles are good, send the rest over quickly, and settle them together at that time." ”

Li Qiye was immediately anxious when he heard this: "Steward Ma, it's ...... like this"

Ma Ping's eyes widened, and he said hesitantly: "What? I'm afraid that my Liu Zhuang won't talk about short credit, how many taels of silver do you have? Recently, everything has been busy, how can I have time to settle the silver at a time, don't make noise, send the rest quickly, otherwise I will miss the repair of my ancestral house in Liu Zhuang, and I will pull your Li Laoqi's skin. ”

It's all about Liu Zhuang's credit, how dare Li Qiye say anything, he hurriedly unloaded the tiles and left, sighing all the way back: "How can I explain to the Dashi family now." ”

It was already evening when Li Qiye returned to the village, and Liu Jun, who was refining horse oil, almost fainted when he heard the news.

Originally, there were only more than 200 copper plates left in the house, and in the past two days, I invited Sister-in-law Osmanthus to have 50 copper per day, and 100 have been spent, and the remaining 100 or so are only enough to invite for two more days.

It is true that the villagers don't care how many days they are in arrears, but can they be delayed in a day or two, and can they be delayed until all the deliveries are delivered in more than ten days?

He dared to ask for help so boldly, just because he relied on what Li Qiye said, to pay the goods once and settle the payment once, and now that the payment is not settled, the cash flow in his hand will be cut off immediately.

Liu Jun couldn't help but complain: "Seventh Master, you didn't say that that day, if you can't receive the payment, it's not easy for me to do it here." ”

Li Qiye blushed, his words were indeed not like this, but who would have expected that Ma Ping would have a demon moth? Usually, whether it is firewood, grain, rice and noodles, it is also Ma Ping's guy, but this has never happened, but people have said that they are busy with affairs, and they can't doubt the credit of Liu Zhuang's housekeeper.

Liu Jun was shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly reassured: "Seventh Master, I don't blame you, I mean that I can't receive money and have no money to prepare materials, I have to find a way to make some money, Seventh Master, I still have your help, don't know that you are free, can you drive with me to the county seat?" ”

It's very troublesome if the balance can't be settled, the cash flow is broken, and the consequences can be big or small, but this is a foregone conclusion, it's useless to blame anyone, but don't provoke Li Qi to make a good mess, and those clan elders will tear her up at that time.

The cash flow is cut off, and Liu Jun can't sit still, he has to think of a better way to make money.

It just so happened that she was also working on another thing in the past two days, which was originally to supplement protein for everyone, but now she can only temporarily launch it to see if she can exchange some money to save the emergency.

Seeing that Liu Jun not only didn't complain about him, but was willing to ask him for help again, the guilt in Li Qiye's heart dissipated a lot, and he hurriedly said: "No problem, I'll come over tomorrow morning, how many cars do you need?" ”

"One will do." agreed on a time and sent Li Qiye away, Liu Jun took out the last 130 copper plates, and asked Li Youwei to hurry up and buy things, don't keep a penny, and buy them all.

Even if the cash flow is doomed to be broken, it makes no sense to spend more than 100 or 100 less, it is better to spend it all.

After making a good decision, Liu Jun was not anxious, sat back on the edge of the fire pond, boiled the horse oil, the original fishy and turbid horse oil, filtered by gauze and activated carbon, and then added to the chicken paste to clarify, has become clear and translucent.
