Li Anran, who was very satisfied with the shocking effect of his bag of man-made gems that was not worth much at all, sent Chen Boyu down to settle himself after saying some of his own rules, and at the same time, he also asked the subordinates waiting outside the hall to convey the appointment of this Chen Langjun, so as to avoid any misunderstanding.
As for whether the origin of this Chen Boyu is as Su Xiaomei said, Li Anran actually doesn't care at all. It doesn't matter if the other party is really a pawn of some people, anyway, the industry in this county is nothing, and handing it over to the other party can save you the trouble of having to bow down to yourself, and you can also test the reaction of all parties.
Since deciding to hug Li Shimin's thigh first, Li Anran knew that it was impossible for him to prevent this possibility. In that case, it is better to accept it calmly. Not only can you have a competent hand to deal with trivial matters, but also can make those behind the scenes feel at ease, killing two birds with one stone, why not.
took the matter of purchasing servants and recruiting bankers this time, and Li Anran directly handed it over to Chen Boyu to deal with. Anyway, this group of people is only used to lay the foundation, and it doesn't matter if there are any chess pieces mixed in there, the important thing is that it is easy to use. If something really goes wrong, he will never be ruthless when he should be ruthless.
In terms of his own safety, with the physical changes brought about by time and space travel, coupled with the weapon of self-defense, he must return to modern time and space every night, and he will not lose it for a while.
Seeing that Chen Boyu had taken over the matter, Li Anran, who had nothing to do, simply took Su Xiaomei and Xiangling to the county seat and walked around. first went to his three shops, but met Chen Boyu who was checking the accounts in that wine shop.
With the colorful glass seal engraved with the words Xiaoyao Villa that Li Anran had rewarded before, naturally no one dared to question it in the wine shop. As for whether Chen Boyu will take this valuable glass seal and fly away, he is not afraid, not to mention that the four characters of Xiaoyao Villa have been engraved on this seal, except that he will never take it out, otherwise he will know as long as he checks it. Moreover, it doesn't matter if someone takes it away, it's a big deal to change the shape next time, change the font and re-customize a glass seal.
Li Anran, who watched Chen Boyu's account inspection for a while, was very satisfied that the other party was able to quickly enter the state of work. Taking advantage of the fact that it was not yet lunch time and there were not many customers in the store, I took a few photos and videos of the interior so that I could go back and redesign and decorate it, so that the business here could improve somewhat. After mentioning a few words, he took Su Xiaomei and the others to leave in the car.
After turning around the three shops and taking photos and videos respectively, Li Anran, who rarely went to the city, naturally did not rush back, but asked Su Xiaomei, who was familiar with the county seat of Lantian, to show the way, first took a good look at the beautiful landlord in the county, and then tasted the folk snacks of Datang time and space as lunch on the way.
Not to mention, although the snacks of the Tang Dynasty are not as abundant as those of later generations, they are also unique. For example, the flax cake is yellow and bright in color, crispy in skin and soft inside, and the sesame oil is very delicious. There are also Qianjin Yuan, black female chicken soup, astragalus mutton, miscellaneous cakes, 100-year-old soup, apricot cheese, carved hu rice, Huaiye cold tao, pine cake and so on, although limited to the use of seasonings is not comprehensive, the taste is lacking, but it is better in the original taste and fresh enough.
Don't look at it, the three of them tasted a lot of snacks, but the cost was pitiful. With Su Xiaomei and Xiangling's small appetite, they were full just by eating a dozen yuan, and most of the things went into Li Anran's belly.
Seeing that he could eat well for just a hundred dollars, Li Anran was naturally very satisfied. However, it is also known that although the price of the road is used, it is still affected by the slightly higher prices in the first year of Zhenguan, if it is replaced by the most prosperous years of Zhenguan, the price of this hundred or so can be at least thirty percent cheaper, or even more.
After lamenting the price, Li Anran also took a look at the situation of the people in Lantian County. I found that the atmosphere in this city was harmonious and stable, but in terms of population, it was much worse than the county seat in later generations. Moreover, judging from the complexion and clothing of most of the people, in the words of later generations, it is not a well-off, at most it can barely be mixed with food and clothing.
Li Anran also knew that these ordinary people were only the lowest level of Datang, and it was already good to be able to mix food and clothing. In the case of the war at the end of the Sui Dynasty, according to historical records, it is not unheard of that the matter of changing children and eating has not happened. What's more, in addition to these ordinary people, you can still see a lot of rich people who are hugging each other and wearing brocade clothes and jade belts along the way.
"Young master, the slave family has something to ask for." Just as the carriage was slowly driving on the street of Lantian County, Su Xiaomei, who was sitting in the car, suddenly said.
"Oh? What's the matter? Li Anran, who was admiring the customs of the Tang Dynasty through the curtain of the lifted carriage, said with a smile.
"The slave family wants to ...... The slave family wanted to go back to the Cuihong Mansion to have a look. After hesitating for a moment, Su Xiaomei still said what she thought in her heart.
"Emerald Red Mansion?" Li Anran, who didn't expect the other party to make this request, was originally very emotional about this ancient **. But because of the identity of the worldly master that he made up, he couldn't enter this dusty place at will as he thought before. Seeing that there is such a good opportunity in front of him, there is naturally no reason to refuse. However, in order to be concerned about his identity, he still made a hesitant gesture.
"Young master, slave...... The slave family just wants to ...... with their former sisters" Su Xiaomei, who saw the hesitation of her master, hurriedly explained.
Worried that he would pretend to be a fool and miss this opportunity to see what the situation was like in ancient times, Li Anran's originally slightly furrowed brows suddenly relaxed, and he smiled at the moment and said: "Ha Luha, I said why did I have a whim today, but it turned out that it should be here." Anyway, it is the fate of the law, and it should be a journey. ”
After speaking, he ordered the subordinates who drove the car to rush towards the emerald red building.
And Su Xiaomei, who was sitting in the carriage, originally planned to explain, but she didn't think about it and said less than half of it, and she got such a result.
Compared with Xiangling, who didn't understand at all on the side, as a Qingqi person carefully cultivated by Cuihong Mansion, Su Xiaomei, who likes to read some supernatural scripts when she has nothing to do, is connecting the three key words of "that whim", "should be here", and "fate" in her mind, but she can't help but move in her heart, and secretly thinks:
"Could it be that my sister's chance to get out of the cage should also be on the young master?"
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was possible, Su Xiaomei smiled in her heart at first, but when she thought about it, she couldn't help but feel a little remorse and panic.
Don't look at Su Xiaomei, she is just a clean person, but she knows more about the affairs of men and women than the children of ordinary people. In addition to the upside-down phoenix and the bed**, even the means of fighting for the throne in the mansion have been heard and seen for a long time. Thinking that if his sister really took this opportunity to get out of the cage, if she had anything to do with her new master, wouldn't she have done the act of luring the wolf into the house.
Fortunately, although Su Xiaomei grew up in a "dye vat", her heart was not polluted too much. Such thoughts only flashed through my mind for a moment, and I was thrown out of the blue. Even if I can't say that there is no obstacle at all, I don't take this thought too seriously anymore.
With a clear place to go, the carriage naturally did not have to wander around the city aimlessly as before, and it didn't take too long to come to the Emerald Red Building, which was located in the "rich area".
Since it is still daylight, this emerald red building has not yet reached the time of business. However, there will naturally be no problems with Su Xiaomei opening the way. Knowing how this former Qingqi man was ransomed out of the owner of the Cuihong Mansion in the first place, he naturally didn't dare to slack off. hurriedly invited people to the private room, that is, the luxurious box of the later generations.
And for Li Anran, who visited ** for the first time, this trip is full of novelty. Even in the costume dramas of modern time and space, there are often such places, but after all, they are all fictional scenes, compared with the real ** at the moment, whether it is the style of interior decoration or the clothing of the characters, there is no comparison at all.
Fortunately, although Li Anran has never been to **, he has never eaten pork and watched pigs run. In addition to seeing a lot in movies and TV, I have also been to nightclubs, so I am naturally not afraid of this environment. After sitting down at the table, looking at the wine and food that were soon served, he nodded immediately, took out two champagne-colored round artificial gems about the size of a thumb nail and threw them on several sides, and said with a smile:
"Reward!"
