Chapter 041: Atmosphere

"Brother Han, the stakes are very high, I can't say it in one word, I need time to think about it." Li Kui thought for a while and said, "It's better to do this, I'll come to the county in half a month, how about we discuss it again?" ”

Han Dahu didn't expect Li Kui to agree immediately, but he was also forced to be anxious, and he was unwilling to let go of any hope: "Brother Xian, you have to make a decision quickly, my brother can point to you." ”

"Brother said with a smile, you are the gate of the eunuchs, I am just a family of cloth clothes, and I rely on my brother to be a younger brother." Since Han Dahu has the hope of becoming a relative of the emperor, Li Kui will naturally not be stingy with good words.

Han Dahu smiled bitterly: "Brother Xian, you are laughing. My brother is just an unruly inspector, disgrace to the ancestors......"

Han Dahu, who can be in charge of Duyu Houmen, obviously, his family should also be in the military, and his official position will not be low. And Han Dahu should have passed the inspection of Enyin, although his official position is very low now, it may not be said that he will be developed that day.

Han Dahu wanted to settle the matter immediately, but in the face of Li Kui, coercion was useless. Even if he is a good tiger, can he still be fierce than Li Kui?

Neither would he do it any other way.

So far, there is only that.

I hope Li Kui won't look at him too eagerly, and deliberately ask for the price at that time, if it is really at that time, he may have to carry his father-in-law out.

After all, the identity of the forbidden army is also a senior military attache in the forbidden army, and the real lack of five grades is not a powerful person that ordinary people can compete with. At the same time, he couldn't help but complain about his father-in-law, although the Liu family was not treated by the main general in the Huaiyang Army, it was also a force. If it weren't for the dream of one step to the sky, how could he have thought of sending his daughter to the palace?

Now that the accumulation of several generations of the family has been sent to the palace, I don't know if there will be results.

In case the water is lost, the whole family will have no place to cry even with their sons-in-law!

Before going out, Li Dalang pulled Li Kui's sleeve, and was about to cry, he was so big, he hadn't drunk with the inspector, but his brother suddenly wanted to go out, could he not be afraid? "Brother, you can come back soon!"

Li Kui looked up at the sky, with a helpless face, his brother really can't be helped, no matter how unbearable he is, he is also a family, he still needs to help those who should be helped, as for how will he be in the future? God knows!

"Brother, you also learned to fry chestnuts with sugar, and I have also tasted them, and they are okay. It's already at the level where you can go to the county seat and open a store. In the future, when you go out, you will have to do business alone, and in the future, you will need to bear all kinds of people. Don't think about how difficult it is, think about your mother, she still needs you to support her old man? ”

"I know, but brother......"

Li Kui waved his hand impatiently and said, "I'm looking for the third uncle, and it's in the village." Remember not to talk nonsense, I put up with it at home, but people outside won't get used to your broken mouth. ”

Leaving Han Dahu and several of his subordinates to eat and drink at home, let Li Dalang, who was thinking bitterly and almost crying, accompany him, but Li Kui went out of the house to find the old patriarch.

Li Kui didn't go empty-handed, he took the two baskets of copper coins brought by Han Dahu, one in one hand, and walked towards the village where the old patriarch lived.

called for the door, and Li Kui stepped into the courtyard.

The people in the mountains are all people of the same ancestry, and Baizhang Village does not have the habit of closing the courtyard door.

The old patriarch was still lying on a rocking chair in the courtyard basking in the sun, and in the winter, he seemed to be less willing to move. Li Kui leaned in and shouted: "Third uncle! ”

The old man glanced at Li Kui obliquely, in fact, he couldn't see people clearly, if anyone had his head up to the sky and basked in the sun for a long time, everything he saw was gray with a halo, and he couldn't tell who was who?

After calming down for a while, I saw that it was Li Kui. Li Kui didn't need to see it clearly, he knew that it was this muddy boy who was coming, and he saw clearly that Li Kui came to the house with two baskets of copper coins.

The old man pouted arrogantly, and said leisurely: "But I finally saw the money back!" ”

Seventh Uncle Li Hong walked over, and the moment he saw the copper coin, he secretly said in his heart: "I'm afraid I have to get ten dollars, right?" ”

With so much money, it is definitely a lot of money for the people in the mountains, and he doesn't dare to accept Li Kui's money. What's going on? He is an elder, if he takes the money of the junior, or such a large amount of money, how can he face the people in the village?

"Li Kui, what are you doing! Get the money back quickly. As Li Hong spoke, he wanted to mention the copper coin and send it back to Li Kui. But I didn't expect to provoke my father's cold snort.

The old patriarch said impatiently: "Where is the reason for the elders to see the juniors coming to the house and go out without saying a word?" ”

"Daddy! But this money ......."

"The money is not for you, why are you in a hurry!" The old patriarch was quite disappointed that his son did not have the calmness to do things. He didn't believe that Li Kui would send money for no reason, not only to embarrass him, but even Li Kui with the money would be criticized in the village, and a ghost boy like Li Kui couldn't do such a stupid thing.

The old man raised his hand and pointed at Li Kui and said, "Boy, tell me what are you doing with the old man?" ”

The old man was very angry this time, and he was obviously still angry about Li Kui's unauthorized fight against the tiger that day. Although the results were all happy, the tiger seemed to be like a trick and did not clean up. But what if Li Kui is injured?

In case you are bitten by a tiger, the injury will not be small.

This kid doesn't know the severity, he is a descendant who is valued by the county lord, wouldn't it be easy to study in the future? Baizhang Village is about to produce a scholar, in case it is eaten by a tiger, do you complain or not?

"Third uncle, isn't the child here to honor your old age?"

Li Kui sat next to the old patriarch with a smile, looking at the old man with a hippie smile, the old man is not easy to beat, is he? Angrily, with the support of Aunt Qi, he sat up and asked, "The family is about to eat, but they don't do your share." ”

"I've eaten, I've eaten." Li Kui smiled and said: "No, I have something to ask the third uncle here, this is not to ask the third uncle for help." ”

"Say it! None of the babies in the village are reassuring, they are all a group of white-eyed wolves who are not worried. The old man was very angry, but he still responded to Li Kui's request.

Li Kui said: "My brother recently learned a craft of roasting goods, and is going to go to the county town to open a small shop for roasted goods, but there are not many chestnuts at home, and they need to be collected in the village, and they may go to nearby villages to collect some and transport them to the county to prepare for business, right?" I guess there is no work to do in the village now, and I want the third uncle to help gather the clansmen in the village to help deliver and collect chestnuts, which is just wages, and the money for collecting chestnuts is counted separately. ”

"Boy, he's tough! Baizhang Village has not had such a character for many years, okay, I know, you can put a hundred hearts and never delay things. ”

The old man knows all about the young people in the village, and the elder brother in Li Kui's family doesn't even have the heart to take a look at the old man, and he belongs to the things that make up the numbers among the clansmen. The old man crooked his mouth and said unhappily: "But Kui Wazi, what are you going to do with Da Lang's cowardice?" Let him sell himself to become a tenant in a big family, it's a mud that can't be supported! The money from the sale can still support your mother, right? ”

I have to say that the people in Baizhang Village are more ruthless than the other. The old man is also old, and he was also a ruthless character when he was young.

Li Kui also agreed.

But the problem is that Li Dalang is also your old grandson!

You keep talking like that, is it appropriate?

Unexpectedly, the old patriarch was still unhappy, and said: "Your eldest brother is wilting, and he will definitely lose money in business." It's not easy for you to get this money, and it's not necessarily enough to spend on studying. If you refuse to be this wicked person, the old man will be a wicked person again, and the old man will say it for you. ”

"Don't!"

Li Kui hurriedly stopped the old man, the people in Baizhang Village all had a bad mouth, one was more damaged than the other, the old man really had to count the people, Li Dalang was afraid that he might really be counted to be embarrassed to live and waste food with a dead face.

You have to kill yourself!

Li Kui was helpless, and only coaxed the old man as if coaxing a child: "Third uncle, look at you, are you in a hurry?" My eldest brother is not in trouble, how can I not know. I came to you, not only to ask you to help gather the people in the clan, but also to ask the seventh uncle to help take care of my eldest brother. The kid estimated that this was also a livelihood. If this business can be done, there may be one more way for the village to make a living for the big guys in the future. ”

Li Kui knew that as long as it was related to the livelihood of the clansmen, the old man would definitely stand up and support it.

Sure enough, the old patriarch pondered for a while, and said suspiciously: "Is this reliable?" ”

"I haven't done it, I don't know! But if it works, won't our village have a livelihood where we can live in peace? Li Kui asked rhetorically.

The old man hesitated for a while, suddenly slapped his thigh hard, and said fiercely: "It's done!" ”
