Chapter 48: Youzhou (4)

Lan Rong's eyes lit up: "Mother, if Xiao Yuanmao can agree, we will be able to gain a firm foothold in Pingyang Mansion." ”

The fourth child stayed in Youzhou and was demoted, and worshipping high and stepping on low is the norm in officialdom. Originally, he had a knighthood in his family, even if it was not his turn to inherit the title, some people were jealous that he was born with a golden key. Now he is having a hard time, and he feels that there is no hope, for fear of another accident.

The boss has just experienced ups and downs, looking forward to the Lan family being able to get up.

Lan Rong turned to the stage excitedly: "Mother is smart! If Master Xiao is willing to support our academy, we will save money! ”

Stupid, is the point about saving money? The point is that Xiao Yuanmao is needed to be the backer of the Lan family!

Lu Yingfang moved her gaze to Lan Ronghuan and Lan Ronghe, the hope of the Lan family is on you. Lan Rong can't count on this pig's brain, plus a Sun family with a lot of eyes, just don't pull the hind legs.

"Fourth, I'm going to hand over the post to see if Lord Xiao is willing to meet him. I'll include a letter in my post, and I'm sure he'll read it and be willing to see me. "Lu Yingfang has been exposed to a lot of information in the 21st century, and it is very easy to write a book for a bookstore.

Lan Ronghe saw that his mother had made up his mind, so he had to nod: "Mother, after you write the letter, I will ask someone to send it over!" ”

Next, Lu Yingfang began to discuss with her three sons about the scale, location and cost of the bookstore. She felt that it made sense to want to have more sons and more blessings in ancient times, even if these three sons were stinkers, how could they be a Zhuge Liang! Although she fuses the memories of the original owner, she is still influenced by modern thinking. So she needs the participation of local natives in the planning.

Lu Yingfang said that the bookstore should have a uniform uniform, and in order to save expenses, the eldest and third children need to work in the store.

"Mother, you actually want me to be the shopkeeper of the bookstore?" Lan Rong turned his eyes at again, "Isn't this what the next person did?" ”

Lu Yingfang glared at him angrily: "Please ask a shopkeeper who can read and count, do you know how much monthly silver you have to give?" You can read and count, and you are embarrassed to eat and drink for nothing at home? ”

Lan Rong was stunned, and he couldn't help but speak for a while: "This is the shopkeeper, how ugly it is!" ”

"A dignified man, who can't support himself, and has to live on the dowry of his wife and mother, this is really ugly!" Lu Yingfang snorted coldly, "You also think too highly of yourself, you are just a leader at most." ”

"What about Big Brother?" Lan Rong didn't expect that he couldn't even be a shopkeeper, and he was still a buddy?

Lu Yingfang turned her gaze to Lan Rong: "I decided to let you be the shopkeeper, are you willing?" "Although it is a bookstore, it is indispensable to welcome the entertainment that is sent, and you have to put down your body to do things.

Lan Rongzhuan had blind confidence in his mother, and he felt that Xiao Yuanmao would definitely agree to his mother's request. Thinking about the more than two million debts, my mother seems to be omnipotent.

Lan Rong turned his gaze firmly: "I listen to my mother's arrangement." ”

Lan Rong turned to hear the words, and he was dumbfounded, lowering his head and not speaking. Lu Yingfang was too lazy to continue to scold him.

Lan Ronghe said: "Mother, since you plan to settle in Pingyang Mansion, and the prefect of Pingyang Mansion, Di He, has some friendship with my father, I plan to ask the Li family to hand over the post to see if Mrs. Di will receive it." ”

"No." Lu Yingfang shook her head, "The people in Pingyang Mansion are all watching!" Why don't you send two books in your father's name? If the other party accepts it, you can hand the post to your door. If the other party doesn't accept it, I'm afraid I'm still worried that we will have too close a relationship, and the emperor will not hesitate. ”

"Also, look at these." Lu Yingfang took out a piece of paper full of words and decided to take a look at these people.

After everyone circulated it, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

"Mother, you are ......" Lan Ronghe felt that his mother was a bit of a soldier.

In the end, the piece of paper fell into the hands of the Li family, and the first four big characters were especially obvious: the Lan family's family motto

Li glanced at Lan Rong with a look, shouldn't this first family motto be written for the third child?

One of the family mottos: The more beautiful the girl, the more she will deceive people. Don't trust people easily, especially the beautiful lady.

It was not only the Li family who had this idea, Lan Rongzhuan himself also felt it.

He blushed: "Mother, what do you mean by that?" ”

Lu Yingfang coughed lightly: "The world thinks that we have a prescription on hand, so we will think of stuffing people in." To be on the safe side, I don't plan to buy people to serve you anymore, and you don't want to think of yourself as nobles anymore. Do the housework you can do by yourself. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces turned pale.

They thought that after coming to Youzhou, they would buy another person, but their mother actually said that they would not buy it?

Even Qian's heart is very heavy, Aunt Gu is going to leave in five years, Wanling is almost kissing at that time, what if there is no capable maid around?

The Li family was even more uneasy, the husband was demoted, and some of their subordinates had been dismissed before they moved to Cangzhou. She is a beautiful girl, and there are more than a dozen people who marry her. Now the mother-in-law only has a few subordinates here, but her daughter-in-law uses so many subordinates, which is not good. But she was reluctant to let her let go of the companion room. After all, it's a subordinate who is used to it, how can you give it up?

Lu Yingfang looked at everyone's expressions in her eyes, and sighed: "Even if you want to buy people, you have to wait until we take root in Youzhou." ”

Seeing that Lu Yingfang was relieved, all the daughters-in-law were relieved.

Whether to buy it in the future or not, it's not up to her to decide. As soon as they arrived in Youzhou, they swaggered to buy people, didn't they tell the world that they still had to live a good life? In order to get out safely in the capital, isn't it a joke to scatter all the family property?

Moreover, as a good young man in the 21st century, Lu Yingfang said that it is difficult to accept human trafficking.

"In order to prevent spies from getting in, those who sell themselves to bury their fathers can't buy them at all." Isn't it often played in TV dramas?

"If you really feel sorry for the other party, you can ask someone to send the money. Don't come forward yourself, lest the other person get entangled. "There's too much drama that if you buy me, I'll have to serve you.

Lu Yingfang was not at ease and added: "The next person will talk about this place first." Now it's a few of you. She swept her gaze to her three sons.

The three sons immediately straightened their backs and waited for instructions.

"In addition to the subordinates, there may be people who want to be concubines, as long as they enter the Lan family, they can think of stealing recipes." Lu Yingfang made no secret of the fact that she had a plan at hand in front of her son.

"Mother, I won't take a concubine." Lan Ronghe immediately interfaced.

Seeing that her husband was so determined, Li remembered that when he gave the two girls to the military man, he was happy for a while. The husband and wife looked at each other and sprinkled a handful of dog food.

Lan Rong nodded: "Now that the Lan family can't stand the toss, naturally they can't enter outsiders anymore." ”

Lan Rong saw that the brothers all expressed their positions, and hurriedly spoke: "Mother, don't worry, don't worry." ”

Lu Yingfang looked at him, staring at him with a look of "I just don't worry about you", and Lan Rong turned to see that he couldn't sit still.

"When you meet girls, widows, etc., you will stay away. When you encounter a girl falling into the water, hurry up and call someone, don't jump off by yourself. It is estimated that they don't dare to jump, and in their memory, it seems that only the fourth child can swim.

Sun's heart blossomed with joy, his mother should have been like this a long time ago, hehe!

In the afternoon, Carpenter Niu hurried to the northwest corner with two apprentices, and he found that there were also Carpenter Li and Carpenter Cai, both of whom had come with their apprentices. There are also some people I don't know.

Lu Yingfang met them in the empty house, and after they saluted the owner, they heard a bombshell-like news.

"I have drawings of the loom here, and I need you to make them. This drawing will be given away to the public in the future, but until then, I hope you will keep it a secret. Lu Yingfang directly stated the purpose.

Loom...... Everyone looked at each other, but they didn't say anything.

Lu Yingfang: "This is the drawing I saw from an ancient book, which says that this kind of loom is much faster than the current loom. These drawings will also be given to you after the Chinese New Year, and I believe that many people will ask you to do this by then. ”

In other words, not only do you have work to do in these three months, you have to get money to get, but you also have to get drawings to continue to do in the future? The crowd rejoiced, and merit points poured out from the top of their heads.

Lu Yingfang watched quietly, except for Carpenter Cai and the two apprentices whose merit values were only 0.1 and 0.2, the three Niu carpenters contributed 6 merit points, and the two Li carpenters contributed 5 merit points, and the rest of the carpenters were fighting alone, all of them came alone, some congratulated 4 merit points, and some contributed 0.2 merit points.

These people have already signed a three-month contract with Lee, so they still have to use it.

"But not all of them get drawings to make. Register again and I'll let you know. Lu Yingfang's words changed, making the carpenters a little stunned.

Tables, chairs, pens, ink, paper, and inkstones had already been prepared in the empty house, and when Lan Rong transferred them to register, she silently paid attention to them. When they were gone, she just crossed it with the strokes.

Lan Rong turned his eyes to look at his mother, a little puzzled.

"Some people can't use it." Those with high merit will become the help of the Lan family in the future, and those with low merit will not need it.

Although he didn't know why his mother did this, Lan Rongzhuan didn't dig deeper: "But I've signed a contract for three months." ”

Lu Yingfang said confidently: "Then give them other work to do." ”

As soon as Carpenter Niu and Carpenter Lee, along with several other carpenters, returned home they received a notice that they could go to the workshop tomorrow morning to make a loom. And let them prepare the wood, preferably to find a source.

What kind of wood is used for the loom, where it is, and who has wood on hand, these are not for Lu Yingfang to worry about.

The Lan family took them in a carriage and went to the countryside to buy wood.

Within a few days, the logs were piled up in the rooms of the empty house, and all the carpenters began to work.

The ten young men who came from Cangzhou and Ganzhou were all overjoyed to learn carpentry for free. According to the rules, in the past, I followed the master to learn the craft, and the first three years were free work, and then I could learn something one after another, and I basically couldn't learn anything in five or six years. Now I come here to eat and live, and I can learn a craft.
