Chapter 5 First arrival in Qingyu County
"Boss, can Boss Qian really let us go?"
Sitting in the carriage, Lin Dai looked at the imperial capital farther and farther away behind the carriage with red eyes, and asked in a low voice.
has been scolded for several years, Lin Dai has developed an extremely inferior character, today is her first day of marriage, Chen Li was kicked out of the imperial capital by Boss Qian, she instinctively felt that this was all her own problem.
Chen Li sneered: "Let's go back to Qingyu County to take care of our mother, and when we finish dealing with the matter at hand, we will go back to the imperial capital, and when the time comes, we may not be able to tell who will not let go of whom." ”
After speaking, Chen Li patted Lin Dai, who was leaning on his arms, and said softly: "I will take care of the outside affairs, and when we get to Qingyu County, we are busy, let's rest for a while." ”
……
"Owner, Qingyu County has arrived."
The groom who was driving the car woke up Chen Li, who was sleeping lightly.
Qingyu County is not even thirty miles from the imperial capital, and the road is quite peaceful, at least there is no pause along the way, and there are no robbers.
However, when he opened the door and saw Qingyu County, Chen Li was directly stunned.
The city wall is only three meters at most, and the city gate is even more missing, it is difficult to imagine that this is a town near the imperial capital, and the appearance is like this, what is the situation in the county town, Chen Li can also guess a little.
No wonder the war in the north is tight, and the population of the Tiantang Dynasty is about to wither, and it is estimated that in addition to those fortresses at the border pass, there are few cities that can block the Qianghu cavalry, once the border pass is urgent, people are afraid that they can kill all the way to the imperial capital!
"Good work."
Chen Li hugged his fists, took out a hanging copper coin from his arms and handed it to the horseman.
A lot of money, a thousand sons for Chen Li, that is to say, two days of books for the mouth, but for these coolie sellers, at least a month's wages, after deducting taxes, it would be good to be able to drop four hundred copper plates, not to mention that the price of the imperial capital is very expensive, they can only buy some cheap millet or sorghum, and live on wild vegetables.
The groom was stunned, but he waved his hand again and again: "The owner, this is not in accordance with the rules, Li Ye has already given money." ”
Chen Li smiled: "Li Yan gave you your wages, now it's not early, and the brothers can't go back, so I will stay in Qingyu County for one night, as a friend, I will invite you to tea." ”
"This ......"
The groom hesitated for a while, but he still took the money handed by Chen Li, and immediately beckoned a few sword guards on thin horses: "The owner invites us to have tea, let's also buy a handful of strength, send the owner to the place, and then help the owner clean up." ”
As the words fell, Chen Li's smile became brighter and brighter.
The hearts of the people in the feudal era were very dark, as the so-called - car and ship shop feet, innocent should be killed!
If you don't understand the Tao here, you will be rich halfway, and it is hard to say whether you can make it to Qingyu County alive.
But now I have seen the city head of Qingyu County, even if the security is poor, these groom guards have to weigh it, as long as they exude goodwill, they will definitely be happy to make their own friends, and when the time comes, they will be able to gain a foothold in this Qingyu County.
The carriage was driving slowly, Lin Dai was also asleep, Chen Li simply sat outside the car, curiously looking at the surrounding buildings.
"Owner, there are more mountains and forests in Qingyu County, and the surrounding villages all make a living from hunting, so there are many restaurants in the county.
While the groom was driving the car, he chatted with Chen Li.
Obviously, he regards Chen Li as a rich master, after all, Chen Li is a lot of money as soon as he makes a move, and he is still friends with Li Yan, so he will not be like them, they are ordinary people who have difficulty making a living.
"Thank you, brother, for reminding me." Chen Li replied with a smile.
But I made a note of this in my heart.
The nearby villages make a living from hunting, and there are many restaurants in the county, if you want to buy a house, you can start from this aspect, and the only problem to be solved is the capital.
"You're welcome."
Ma Fu also laughed, and continued to talk to Chen Li about the situation in Qingyu County, and even the towns near the imperial capital were basically explained by him, after all, this is one of the few things he can use to make a conversation.
The more Chen Li listened, the more his eyebrows fluttered, and he echoed a few words from time to time.
He has a very little understanding of the world, but he has the experience and insight of the 21st century, and these common sense local customs and specialties are simply business opportunities in his eyes!
Just like Lin Dai was worried about, since Boss Qian had already married him, he would definitely not let him go.
New hatred and old hatred are piled up, and it is no longer a matter for Boss Qian to let him go.
Sooner or later, he will have to return to the imperial capital, and he will repay his kindness and revenge!
The carriage drove until it reached the old mansion that Li Yan said, and the two stopped communicating.
Looking at the two-story duplex in front of him, Chen Li's eyes narrowed slightly.
Although the Li family no longer lives in Qingyu County, they still take this old mansion very seriously, and it should have been renovated later.
took out the key given by Li Yan to open the door, and all kinds of furniture were also available, but no one lived in them for too long, and there was a thick layer of dust on these furniture.
"Boss, this ......"
Lin Dai, who got off the carriage, looked at the house in front of her and was stunned for a while.
If the husband and wife want to clean up this house, it will take at least two or three days of work.
After all, the groom and a few guards had collected the money, and it was time to move things and things, and it was time to fetch water and water, and they packed up in full swing.
The movement from this side immediately attracted many people to stop and watch, after all, this house has been empty for a decade or two, and they are also very curious about this new neighbor, and a few enthusiastic people took the initiative to help clean it up.
"This is our home in Qingyu County in the future."
"Looks like we're busy."
Chen Li smiled bitterly and touched his nose, once again glad that he had been generous before.
"The owner, your house is not small, our brothers will first clean up a place to live with the little lady. The others will come to help you clean up when the brothers are free in the future. ”
The groom patted the dust off his body and greeted Chen Li with a smile on his face.
Chen Li also knew that this place could not be cleaned up in a day or two, so he nodded and thanked the groom, and specially sent a few people to the door to show his attention.
Seeing that they were new to the house, the neighbors also took out some things from their homes one by one to buy them for them, and there was a smell of fireworks in the house.
Lin Dai has been scolded for so many years.
Suddenly, someone was so kind to her, and she still helped Chen Li thank her with slightly red eyes.
Chen Li glanced at her, saw the tears in her eyes, and knew that she had a hard time all these years.
