Although there is only one name outside the staff, the gold content is completely different!

Li Dabai's staff was actually bought with money, just to improve his status in society.

After all, Li Dabai is a businessman, and no matter what time it is, the businessman is the one with the lowest social rank.

Shinong Industry and Commerce!

Merchants are last in line.

This also led to the fact that although merchants could make money, they were looked down upon by successive emperors, officials and even the common people.

In some dynasties, merchants couldn't even enter the city to buy things!

Even though the Tang Dynasty was one of the few dynasties that encouraged merchants to do business, the status of merchants in the Tang Dynasty was still very low.

This also leads to most businessmen squeezing their minds to improve their status!

The original meaning of the outside actually refers to an official position other than the main official, and it actually has a certain amount of power at the beginning.

But as time passed, it became an idle position, more of an honorific title.

Although in the Tang Dynasty, he was no longer an official, but he was also a kind of scholar.

Directly promoted from businessman to taxi, which is full of temptation for most businessmen!

So even if it costs a lot of money, they will grit their teeth and buy the title of the extraneer!

Because only in this way will they have some status in society!

Even in front of the county officials, there is no need to kneel outside.

This makes the psychology of the businessman have great satisfaction!

Not only Li Dabai, but almost all the people in the county are called for spending money.

Just to make the people shout outside.

That's worth it!

In addition to this, there is also a kind of person who can be called an outsider.

Or maybe the position of non-staff was originally created for such people.

That is the official who resigned and returned to his hometown.

In order to distinguish the officials and the people after resignation, it is said that there will be extras.

It's just that with the passage of time, the position of an off-staff member can be bought with money.

And Li Dabai's father-in-law and mother-in-law, the nickname of Li Lao's staff, is how it came about!

Mr. Li was an official who was close to becoming a county guard in one step!

It's just that he is old, so he resigned and returned to his hometown!

Be a rich man who has no quarrel with the world.

Therefore, although Li Dabai and Li Lao Yuan are both outside the staff, in terms of status and honor, Li Lao Yuan hangs and beats him.

The most important thing is that although Li Lao is no longer an official in the court, he has official friends all over the world.

When Li Dabai first did business, it was also with the support of Mr. Li that he could be unimpeded.

Otherwise, he will have to work hard in society for many years.

And because his father-in-law's family was an official, he used to look down on Li Dabai, a businessman with the lowest status.

If it weren't for his daughter Li Dabai not marrying, he would definitely not have accepted this marriage.

Mr. Li is not afraid of the heavens and the earth, but he is afraid that his daughter will be unhappy, and he can be regarded as a complete daughter slave.

Later, Li Dabai's business improved, and he donated money to get an idle job, so the father-in-law eased his face a little.

But it's just that I don't have that stinky face.

Therefore, Li Dabai is extremely in awe of this father-in-law!

Every time he comes to Nanyang County, it is a very impressive scene for him.

During the conversation, the two came to the Li Mansion.

Through the curtains, Ningbei found that the Li Mansion was even more majestic than Li Dabai's mansion!

It seems that this old man Li is living a very chic life!

Just as the housekeeper of the Li Mansion went out, and when he saw Li Dabai getting off the carriage, the housekeeper hurriedly stepped forward and replied with a smile:

"Oh, isn't this Aunt Li! You're here! ”

Li Dabai, who got out of the car, nodded.

"It's Steward Hou, it's just right, you go and inform your father-in-law, and say that his son-in-law has come to visit his old man."

"Okay, okay."

The butler was just about to turn away, but as if he had thought of something, he turned his head again.

"Why don't you go in with me, Uncle, it's a cold day."

"No, no, I'm still waiting outside the door!"

Li Dabai shook his head again and again, fully exposing his state of coercing his uncle.

Suddenly thinking that Ning Bei was still on the side, he couldn't be so angry.

Li Dabai said to Steward Hou again and again:

"Steward Hou, this is my friend, I specially brought him to see my father-in-law, so the number of courtesies should not be missing."

The butler smiled very cooperatively.

"Understand, then uncle and distinguished guests, you wait outside the door first."

When the housekeeper returned to the mansion, Li Dabai really couldn't stand Ning Bei's eyes that seemed to be mentally retarded, he coughed a few times dryly, and said with an embarrassed smile:

"Brother Ningbei, don't look at me like this! Do I have dirt on my face? ”

As he spoke, Li Dabai also reached out and touched his face.

In order not to make Li Dabai so embarrassed, Ning Bei shifted his attention.

He is too lazy to take care of this Li Dabai now, he is really vegetable and fun-loving.

The two of them hadn't waited for a few minutes in front of the Li Mansion, only to see that under the leadership of the housekeeper, Old Man Li and another old man in purple came from the house.

Just glanced at Old Man Li, Li Dabai squeezed his eyebrows at Ning Bei and said:

"Brother Ningbei, have you seen it, my father-in-law came to see us in person, it's not a small face for my brother!"

Ning Bei still laughed a few times.

He didn't bother to refute this Li Dabai.

Li Dabai didn't need Ning Bei to answer, and when he saw his father-in-law walking in his direction, he also walked straight to Old Man Li.

At this moment, the two of them were less than five steps apart, and Li Dabai had already made a posture of saluting.

"Meet my father-in-law!"

As he spoke, Li Dabai made a big salute to Mr. Li.

In this regard, Mr. Li was stunned for a moment, and then he saw Li Dabai clearly.

"Hey, why are you here?"

Li Dabai's face instantly pulled down.

"Father-in-law, I obviously asked the housekeeper to inform you."

Li Dabai glanced at the housekeeper, and the housekeeper hurriedly said to Mr. Li:

"Master Qiqi, I just wanted to tell you that my uncle is here, didn't I get a chance......

Old man Li nodded, and his voice was very flat:

"Come on, come on, get up."

"Thank you, father-in-law!"

Li Dabai got up with a smile, and the old man in purple on the side looked at Li Dabai, and suddenly sneered:

"Is this the son-in-law? It's so cute! ”

Li Dabai rolled his eyes instantly.

Generally speaking, only when there is no way to praise people's appearance, they are described as cute.

This old guy scolds himself around the bush!

But Li Dabai has a very clear understanding of his appearance, so even if the other party says him, he doesn't bother to refute it.

Even Li Dabai could hear the sarcasm of this old man, and Mr. Li could naturally hear it.

It's just that he was powerless to refute, so he could only smile and say:

"This is my indisputable son-in-law, which makes Brother Huang laugh."

"It's okay, it's okay, it's so cute!"

Li Dabai: "......"

This old guy has to scold himself, right?
