Pingcheng, Qi Province.

In a chic study.

Qi Guanzhong was splashing ink on his desk.

At this moment, a tall, beautiful woman walked in.

"I heard that Li Dutong recruited troops outside the East City Gate today, but he didn't recruit a single soldier."

Qi Yanxuan fluttered her long eyelashes, frowned and asked, "Dad, is this matter someone making a hindrance and deliberately making it bad!" ”

"Xuan'er, Li Hun has just arrived, but he dares to take the initiative to break the balance of Pingcheng, so he will naturally have to suffer some hardships!"

Qi Guanzhong looked at his daughter dotingly, and said earnestly: "This matter is related to the interests of the major families, you must not be involved, as long as you run our family's cloth village well, you will be comforted by your father!" ”

Qi Yanxuan said eagerly: "Dad, you can't be with those short-sighted wang clans, Li Dutong strengthened his armaments in Pingcheng, just for the sake of Pingcheng's long-term peace and stability!" ”

Qi Guanzhong said: "You don't know Li Hun, how can you know this person's thoughts?" ”

Qi Yanxuan said: "The child doesn't know Li Dutong, but she knows Wang Yuanshuang of Wang's cloth shop, and she is now the cloth supplier of our Qi family's cloth shop." ”

"Wang Yuanshuang? The widow of Dalong Township? Even if she is our family's cloth supplier, what does it have to do with Li Hun? ”

After all, Qi Guanzhong is the history of Pingcheng, so he has naturally heard the name of Wang Yuanshuang.

"How can it be okay, Li Dutong and Sister Yuanshuang are partners!"

"It turns out that Widow Wang's partner is Li Hun!"

"Today, I went to Cangyun Village with Sister Yuanshuang to inspect the workshop, and I was stunned when I saw those new spinning wheels!"

"A new spinning wheel? Could it be that the spinning wheel in Cangyun Village is different? ”

"It's not just different, it's just ingenious."

Qi Yanxuan said with fascination: "The production speed of those pedal spinning wheels is five times that of hand-cranked spinning wheels, and you can spin fifteen catties of yarn a day!" ”

"How is this possible?"

When Qi Guanzhong heard this, he said suspiciously: "Xuan'er, aren't you fooling your old man?" ”

"I have seen this with my own eyes, their workshop is only 500 spinning wheels, but they can spin seven or eight thousand catties of yarn a day."

Speaking of this, Qi Yanxuan smiled playfully: "Dad, do you know who the improvers of those pedal spinning wheels are?" ”

"If it is true as you say, the man who improved the spinning wheel is definitely a genius of the day."

Qi Guanzhong's eyes froze, and he stroked his beard and said: "If you recruit it to the Qi family, you will definitely be able to make our cloth village go to the next floor!" ”

Qi Yanxuan said: "You have made people like that, how can you recruit the Qi family?" ”

"Could it be that the people who improve the spinning wheel are...... Li Hun? ”

Qi runs through the center of the head and sinks.

"That's right, those pedal spinning wheels were exactly what Li Dutong came up with!"

Speaking of this, Qi Yanxuan grabbed her father's wrist and said coquettishly: "Dad, don't embarrass Li Du anymore, we can only befriend a genius like him!" ”

Qi Guanzhong sighed: "Alas, it's not that my father wants to embarrass him, but that he offended Tang Peng and Wei Qiang. ”

"Dad, Tang Peng and Wei Qiang are just a little bit old, how can you be with them?!"

Qi Yanxuan was so anxious that she stomped her feet and said, "In case the Gao Mountain Bandit Kou really comes down the mountain to plunder, do you think Wei Qiang's wretch can stop the Gao Mountain Bandit's soldiers?" ”

"My father was worried about this, so he supported the decision of the county lord in the county government and let Li Hun serve as the commander."

"Since you support Li Dutong, why do you have to step on two boats?"

"This ...... It's not that the five hundred acres of land sent by Tang Peng are too tempting, and my father was confused for a while, so he agreed to Tang Peng's request......"

Qi Guanzhong's old face twitched, and he was embarrassed under his daughter's aggressive questioning.

Qi Yanxuan persuaded earnestly: "Dad, we don't want the 500 acres of land, you quickly draw a line with Tang Peng!" ”

"Okay, well, just draw a clear line between my father and Tang Peng!"

Qi Guanzhong really couldn't resist his daughter, and then continued: "But before that, my father wanted to see how Li Hun resolved Tang Peng's conspiracy, if he really has the ability to break through the obstacles of the major clans, then this person is worthy of our family's deep friendship." ”

As the head of the Qi family.

He always puts the interests of the family first in everything.

How could he give up Tang Peng's 500 acres of land because of his daughter's few words.

After all, Li Xingchen's ability was not enough for him to change the direction of the wind.

Therefore, he chose to wait and see what happened, which is an extremely old-fashioned approach.

……

……

Pingcheng, Tang House.

Under the leadership of the steward, Wei Qiang walked into the main hall in a hurry.

"Tang Dianshi, Li Hun's kid has returned to Dalong Township in a gray manner, and he hasn't recruited a single soldier today."

"Brother Wei doesn't need to make a fuss, everything is as I expected!"

Tang Peng put down the book and said indifferently: "We Pingcheng people are already united, how can we obey the arrangement of an outsider." ”

In order to stop Li Xingchen from recruiting troops, he can be said to have made a bloody investment this time, and gave away a third of the Tang family's industry.

Therefore, the Fan family, the Qi family, the Jiang family, the Lin family and other prominent families changed the direction of the wind one after another, and ordered the tenants of each village that no one should go to Pingcheng to join the army.

"Hahaha, Tang Dianshi is right, Li Hun is just a trader, and he dares to show his teeth and claws in front of us Pingcheng people."

Wei Qiang laughed heartily and said, "He was hit by this today, he must have no face to come to Pingcheng to recruit troops again!" ”

"Brother Wei has said it, Li is the commander of the capital, if he can't even stand this grievance, then I'm afraid he will really laugh and be generous!"

Speaking of this, Tang Peng's words changed: "However, even if he goes to the east of the city every day to recruit troops, he still can't recruit a single soldier." ”

"I like to see Li Hun deflated, and I want to see Yang Furen's old puppet deflated."

The corners of Wei Qiang's mouth raised slightly, and his expression was full of pride.

"Brother Wei, don't worry, Yang Furen doesn't have a few days to live, once Gao Xian returns to Pingcheng, he will inevitably be deflated in public."

Tang Peng looked at Wei Qiang and persuaded loudly: "Brother Wei, I have heard a little about the grievances between you and Gao Xian, and I hope you can understand the current affairs and don't go against Gao Xian." ”

Wei Qiang pondered for a moment before he said slowly: "Don't worry, I just want to keep my own one-third of an acre, and if Gao Xian doesn't come to me for trouble, I naturally won't pick on his thorns!" ”

"That's fine, when Gao Xian enters the county government, I will try to match you again."

"That's not necessary, I, Wei Qiang, am self-aware, and I am not an official at all, if Tang Dianshi really wants to help me, I can usually strive for some benefits for the Wei family."

"Since Brother Wei is weak in officialdom, then Tang will no longer persuade him."

Although Tang Peng said it politely, a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes.

Wei Qiang is really a fool.

Nowadays, almost all of the biggest interests of the Pingcheng Wang clan are tied to Gao Xian.

Once you can climb to the new Yan King through him, then the money and power will be at your fingertips.

But this fool turned away from Gao.
