"Big brother, do you still have any money on you? Lend me some, I'll have to recruit two more people to work, or I'll have to go for three and a half days, and even if I give it another three days, the wheels won't work. Li Tai found Li Chengqian and asked for money.

Li Chengqian glanced blankly and said: "When the three of us divide the labor, we see that you are the smallest, and you are given the simplest part of the wheel, why don't you keep an eye on them and let them make the wheels, why do you just come to me for money?" The steering wheel of the carriage on my side is the hardest, and the money is spent on it, no money! ”

"Impossible!" Li Tai shouted excitedly, "The queen mother said, the poor family is rich, I secretly saw her stuffing money for you." ”

"Wow, you dare to follow me?"

…… I didn't do much work, the money was almost gone, and the two brothers were fighting, Li Yuanying looked at the two not far away, shook his head and smiled bitterly, why did he pretend to be strong to train these three little guys, this is clearly a group of rabble, pointing at them to make a carriage? The Year of the Monkey is gone, and in the end, my uncle will have to suffer with it......

After a while, Li Ke came over to persuade him, "Big brother and fourth brother, don't fight, the fifth uncle is watching." ”

Ga! The two stopped at the same time, and Qi Qi turned his head to look at Li Yuanying, who thought that Li Yuanying waved his hand playfully: "It's okay, I don't know, you continue to ......"

"Ahem, Uncle Five Emperors, we were wrong!" Li Chengqian hurriedly admitted his mistake.

Bang!

"What are you doing? I've stopped, and you're still sneaking up? Li Chengqian shouted angrily.

Li Tai's chubby little head tilted up slightly, and said proudly: "How old you were just now, I suffered a loss, and now it's fair." ”

You...... Do you still count your fists in a fight?

At this time, Li Ke persuaded and said: "Big brother, fourth brother, we don't have enough time, if you fight again, the carriage really can't be done, and when the time comes, take the original carriage all the way, which of you can stand it?" ”

"Big brother is reluctant to take it out if he has money, hum, my wheels can't be made, everyone suffers together, who is afraid of whom!" Li Tai is bold, and he is the most dissatisfied at a young age.

Li Ke said calmly: "Big brother, it's not a way to go on like this, let's select people who know carpentry from these hundred guards, but there are only a dozen or so people among them, which is not enough at all, and they are all half-hanged, it is easy to use in war, but carpentry is not good, I think it is better to find people from nearby villages, and find those who have been carpenters all year round." ”

Well...... What the third brother said makes sense! Li Chengqian nodded approvingly, isn't this the truth, we spent a lot of money, and finally hired a group of people, isn't that a toss in vain?

After thinking for a while, Li Chengqian opened his mouth and said: "Qingque, you can't mess around anymore, I will give you the existing dozen or so people and help you make wheels." Now my third brother and I are going to a nearby village to recruit carpenters. This is the twenty taels of gold given by the queen mother, for our three brothers to use on the road for emergencies, and besides, I hide private money, see if I don't beat you! ”

Seeing the fierce eyes of the eldest brother, Li Tai knew that he was not joking, so he could only nod, but he still put forward the condition: "These people can't work, and when you recruit someone back, you will also share one of me." ”

"Okay, you wait, I'll go and say goodbye to Uncle Wuhuang."

Li Yuanying was happy to see it, and said in his heart that these three boys are not brainless, they can find problems in time and improve the plan, which is good.

Xiao Doudou looked unhappy, "Daddy is biased, why don't you let me play with my three brothers?" It's fun to make a carriage together......"

"You? Do horse-drawn carriages? It's almost the same if you're going to dismantle the carriage, I won't let you go, because I don't want you to make trouble for the three of them, and they won't be able to do it for a month with you. Besides, you see the two of them went to a nearby village to find someone to help, and you rode a lion with more eyes? The villagers are all scared away by you, and they are quiet and follow me as an audience here, and when they are bored, they go to your fourth uncle to learn martial arts, but they are not allowed to cause trouble for them. Li Yuanying reprimanded.

"Hmph, if you don't go, you won't go, who rarely works......" The little guy walked away arrogantly, but he thought to himself, don't let me find a chance, dare to look down on me, if I do it, I will definitely be better than the three of them.

The next day, the three little ones finally had a satisfied smile on their faces. The skills of the newly recruited people are not ordinary, they are much stronger than the people of the escort team, and they have done two wheels in just half a day.

"Big brother, at this pace, we should be able to get the carriage done tomorrow night, right?" Li Tai asked.

Li Ke also looked at Li Chengqian expectantly, but Li Chengqian replied with a bitter face: "I'm afraid not, our money is almost gone." ”

"What? Big brother, did you secretly spend it behind our backs? Li Tai questioned.

"What nonsense? Am I that kind of person? Li Chengqian said angrily: "You don't know the price of firewood and rice, not only the wages we give to the craftsmen, but also the materials needed to make the carriages, as well as the tools, etc., including the workers who have to pay for food, and the cost of letting people leave home and march with us in this wilderness is naturally a lot higher, so ......."

Eating also costs money? Didn't you eat with the big army? Li Tai was puzzled. Li Chengqian explained, said that we would exercise it, but the Fifth Emperor Uncle did not show favoritism, and we paid for the meal.

So what to do?

Li Chengqian frowned and said: "It's really not good, we can only reduce expenses and remove the dozen or so people recruited from the guards, we can't afford to raise them." ”

Li Tai objected: "No, who will help a few craftsmen after removing them?" The three of us can't lift the wood. ”

After looking at the other party's round figure, Li Ke pursed his lips and said, "You can't lift it, the wheels are ready, and the rest are small parts, and they are all wood, we can hold them." ”

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Li Chengqian shouted: "Don't quarrel, it's our task to make a carriage, and we don't have enough manpower to be on top, it's understandable, I think, Uncle Wuhuang is teaching us to be close to the people, not to be arrogant, third brother, you go and explain things clearly, pay them a salary, and the fourth brother will go with me to help." ”

Li Tai followed extremely reluctantly, looked down at his round figure under the warm sun, and couldn't help but secretly complain, it's over, this figure can't be maintained.

On the third day, the three of them had a few blood blisters on their hands, watching the carriage gradually take shape, no one shouted tired, all the grievances and dissatisfactions turned into excitement and expectation, Li Yuanying saw everything in his eyes, and his heart seemed to be suitable for being a teacher, at least this first lesson was good, and it was quite a sense of accomplishment to teach a few princes.

"Little sister, little sister, come on, this frame is too heavy for us to lift, you come and help......" Li Tai beckoned to Xiao Doudou for help.

"Okay, fourth brother, this is coming!" Little Doudou rushed over.

A few craftsmen looked at the little figure and said in their hearts, "What kind of vision does this little boy have?" It's hard for a group of us to carry it, what are you doing to greet a little girl? What if something happens and it hits someone again?

Li Yuanying looked at this scene and couldn't help but sigh, it's okay, Xiaodoudou has been greedy for three days, and it's good to be able to participate in the final completion, saving her from playing a little temper.

"You all get out of the way, a group of adults can't even lift a carriage, it's too stupid, stand aside and ......"

As soon as she came up, she stood in the position of the chief engineer, and it seems that this girl is ready to do a big job.
