Chapter 177
Next, the Wang family and the Gu Lin family chose the auspicious day of the zodiac to exchange Geng posts, and planned to hold a marriage ceremony next month.
The Gu family's dowry has already been prepared, just waiting for the Li family to nod and agree to marry their daughter.
Li Yu'er went to visit her grandfather and grandmother at Wang's house with a little home-made snacks and a few small gifts.
When she arrived at Wang's house and came to the main hall, Mrs. Wang beckoned to her happily.
"Grandmother Ann, I'm late."
Li Yu saluted the old man and said hello before sitting down and leaning on his grandmother's nickname.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, why did you come."
"I'm sorry to bother you, I'm late."
Li Yu deliberately waited a few days to come, and she lost her murderous aura and made her mood calm and cheerful before she dared to come, not wanting her relatives to worry about her.
"Your wish has come true?"
"It's over, and you get what you want."
"I don't regret paying for it."
The old lady turned her face to look at her granddaughter, her face full of distress and appreciation.
Li Yu pursed his lips and paused, with a relieved smile in his eyes.
"No regrets."
"Oh."
"Not for killing, for the world, for the inheritance of the mantle, but also for the grace of family nurturing."
Li Yu replied calmly but firmly.
"Okay, then I'll be relieved."
Mrs. Wang stretched out her hand and hugged her into her arms, "Put it down, if you don't let them go, you won't be able to leave, and you can't bother if you don't feel at ease." ”
"Okay, this time I'm ...... Put it down. ”
Li Yu took a deep breath and nodded.
"Yu'er is here, did you bring me some wine?"
Old lady Wang's angry voice came from outside, and the people followed into the house.
"Grandfather, I brought you good wine, the wine I made last year, you must taste it tonight."
"It's new wine, good."
The old man nodded happily.
Standing there and observing her, Li Yu stood up cooperatively and stood still in front of him, allowing the old man to look at her.
Old Man Wang laughed out loud after seeing it, "Okay, my granddaughter doesn't let her eyebrows go, it's good." ”
Li Yu also smiled happily.
"Good boy, you've never let us down, okay."
Mrs. Wang gave her a thumbs up and a pun.
Seeing that the child finally cheered up, let go of the past, and bravely and optimistically faced the tribulations of the world, the old man could finally rest assured.
"My granddaughter is not filial, so let your second elder worry about me."
Li Yu bowed.
"Silly child, no matter how old you are and how accomplished you are, you are all children in our eyes, and I only hope that you are safe and happy."
"Grandfather, I also have something to discuss with you today."
"You say."
Old lady Wang sat down, and Li Yu brought a cup of tea.
"The Yang family wants to buy the organ of the library with my family."
"Oh, your library building is really so eye-catching, even I want it, I told your father a while ago to improve our library as well."
"This organ is a collection of organs, I have to go into battle in person, if you want to get it, I don't want money to give you one."
"What are the conditions, let's talk about it."
Mrs. Wang has been through ups and downs all her life, how can she be fooled by this little favor, and her face remains the same.
"I don't have enough manpower, I need someone to help me do it, and I need more carpentry, I can't play with one person, I'm willing to take a few more apprentices, how much I can learn depends on your skills."
Li Yu saw that there were more problems created by organs, that is, there were not enough people, and more people were needed to make more money and research more organs.
"You don't want outsiders to learn for nothing, and you want to use it to hang us gate valve families, good idea, don't say I'm really interested."
Mechanism manufacturing is a kind of knowledge and craft, is the ability to pass on the ability of future generations, the gate valve is not lacking in unique talents, see its value, will be so close.
"I'll tell you the truth, the core of mechanism manufacturing is in my head, this depends on talent, not everyone can learn it, but if you can learn a little, it is enough to stabilize your life."
"Well, I believe in this, if you want to learn a profound knowledge, you can't get out of it in ten or eight years."
Old lady Wang agreed with this.
The Mohist organ is so easy to learn, everyone can do it.
"You pick a few people for me, my father said to send them to the carpentry workshop to learn slowly, I really can't learn anything in a year or two, and I learn skills while working. Not to mention learning for three or five years, a living king family like a waterwheel can also follow. ”
"You are not afraid that we will rob you of your business, after all, this is also the pillar industry of the Li family, and now the situation is so difficult, any industry is very precious."
Mrs. Wang looked at her granddaughter with admiration and relief in her eyes.
This child is broad-minded and can achieve things, and some things that others can't play with are not inferior to her, but that their mind is not as good as her.
"I hope that this craft can be carried forward, not just for the Li family to exchange something else. We don't have enough manpower, we can't develop, we can't get better benefits, I have more and better organs, but we don't have manpower, grandfather, unity can make the strength stronger. ”
Li Yu looked at the old man and said calmly, "My wish is to return to the capital and recapture the Li family's mansion, which is the Li family's century-old mansion, and I must take it back if I live." ”
Old lady Wang's face became serious, it was an ancestral house, and it was impossible to give up.
"Okay, I can promise you, what do you want?"
"I want more children to enter the Wang Family Academy to learn real skills, and I want the Wang family, the Li family, the Gu family, and the Xie family to form a force to make the new emperor soft and prepare for entering the capital in the future."
"The things of the first emperor back then can't be repeated, and now His Royal Highness needs the support of the gate valve and the family, which is the best time for us to rise, and crises and opportunities coexist."
Li Yu's vision is far-reaching, and he has studied the situation in Linqi and the capital, which is not half a point worse than those officials.
If you really want to send so much, how could Boss Li let her lead the troops out of the city, wouldn't it send the lives of the sons and daughters of the family to the palace of the king of Hades.
"It makes sense, how are you doing with the Yang family?"
"The agency is just a medium of contact, I said that you can't understand the agency for more than ten years, and it won't be a day's work for me to let you come in and learn."
"If we really want to fight in the future, this ballista and trebuchet need manpower and material resources to build, and the Li family alone is really not enough, the opportunity is just around the corner, it depends on whether we can seize it."
"You're right."
"The Xie family is also willing to give me some manpower, not only academic institutions and carpentry, but also willing to help His Highness pacify more refugees, we must join forces, let His Highness see that we are not only competing for interests, but also benevolent and caring for the people, which is the main reason why he tolerated us."
Mrs. Wang nodded frequently, which was the point that the girl said.
"Then how are you going to contact the Yang family?"
"The library building can be cheaper for him, and the follow-up will cooperate with the Li family to appease the refugees, and the future war will also supply grain and grass and follow-up, in a word, I must stand behind my father to support him, and the war will not be able to play without food and grass."
I can't fight anymore, but I can do more to ensure that my father and brother have stability in the rear and plenty of food and grass.
