Chapter 82: A Warm Year

Li Jinglong scratched his head and asked, "How much do you think there will be demand?" ”

"This..."Li Qing muttered for a while, "raise more, earn more, in short, you will never lose money." ”

In fact, he thought about letting the court do this business, but the price was somewhat reduced, and if the court operated, he was afraid that the local government would use its power to make profits and oppress the people.

After all, in this era, the medical conditions were backward, and it was difficult and impossible to carry out large-scale animal husbandry.

If there is an infectious disease in the farm, all of them die, and if they don't infect people, the best way is to cooperate.

Pigs are raised by the people, and the money is paid by the main household, and the two sides contribute one and the other pays to engage in joint ventures.

Li Qing suggested: "You have a head and face in Jinling, you personally come forward to let the government help with the publicity, the two sides sign an agreement, you provide the upfront costs, and share the risks equally;

Later, the pig is raised, and it is purchased and sold by your people! ”

Li Jinglong nodded and said suspiciously, "The more the merrier?" ”

"The more the merrier!" Li Qing's tone was firm.

"Okay, let's do it." Li Jinglong trusted Li Qing, "After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, I will let people start to prepare." ”

Li Qing smiled and nodded, "This is definitely a fortune deal, and it is guaranteed to make you a lot of money when the time comes." ”

"Cheng, then I'll take Xiao Zhu with me, and everyone will earn money together." Li Jinglong's mouth stinks, but he is still very righteous.

Zhu Yunwen shook his head and smiled bitterly: "At the moment, the government can't take out too much money, just settled the wages of the workers, and they will buy a lot after the year, and many industries need capital turnover." ”

"What?" Li Jinglong was surprised, "Hasn't the money owed by the imperial court been repaid yet?" ”

"I'll pay it back." Li Qing took over, "After the New Year, I will go to Zhili to ask for silver." ”

Li Jinglong exaggerated: "Isn't it? The emperor is too picky, I don't believe he can't even take out hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. ”

"It's really picking." Li Qing was very angry about this, "Okay, don't talk about this, Ming'er Chinese New Year's Eve, have a drink today?" ”

"Okay!" Li Jinglong didn't see it at all, "Xiao Zhu, go and let people prepare sumptuous wine and food." ”

Zhu Yunwen agreed with a smile.




A wine was drunk until the evening, and the joy was dispersed.

Li Qing hasn't experienced this feeling of home for a long time, happy and comfortable from the bottom of her heart, and sleeping at night is particularly peaceful and sweet.

Next.

Li Qing was still immersed in a sweet dream, and was forced to turn on by the little old man and pulled out the bed.

"Master, can't you let me sleep soundly during the Chinese New Year?"

"Less nonsense, go cooking."

Li Qing was helpless, "Isn't there a subordinate in the house?" ”

"They're not as good as yours." Zhang said sloppily.

"......" Li Qing didn't dare to be disobedient, he didn't want to be beaten during the New Year.

Dough, dough, chopped dumpling filling...... Li Qing is only one white hat away from a star chef.

At noon, the three masters and apprentices had a beautiful meal, and Zhu Yunwen sighed at Li Qing's craftsmanship and beat the imperial dining room.

Li Qing seriously suspected that he was killing.

In the afternoon, Li Qing was driven back to the back kitchen by Zhang Sloppy and asked him to prepare the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

I'm here for the Chinese New Year, not to be a cook...... Li Qing protested silently while throwing off his arms to work.

It wasn't until the end of Shen Shi that Li Qing freed his hand and went to Qixia Mountain with a basket of tributes.

When I returned, it was almost dark.

Tonight is Chinese New Year's Eve, Li Jinglong did not come, he has children and grandchildren to accompany.

Firecrackers and fireworks are set off, and the air is filled with the smell of nitric acid, filled with the joy of the New Year.

The three masters and apprentices ate extraordinarily sumptuous dishes, chatted about interesting topics, and celebrated the New Year together.

Eating, drinking, talking and laughing, this year was very comfortable, and the master also gave out red envelopes.

Li Qing fell asleep laughing.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, I played chess, practiced boxing, read books, and tasted tea...... Relax and relax.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Li Jinglong came again.

There is more chatter, and the house is more lively.

Next, this guy came every day, and it was a little noisy, but the flavor of the year was more sufficient.

The happy and leisurely time passed quickly, and I didn't feel that much had passed, and it was the Lantern Festival, and the dumplings were delicious, but it also announced that the year was coming to an end.

It's a new year, and it's going to be busy again.

The sixteenth day of the first month.

The first thing Li Qing did when he went out was to go to Zhili to ask for money.

That's his money, can't do without.

He was not generous to the point of donating hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to the imperial court.

It's okay to let the effort out, but it's not okay to let the money out.

The money was either rewarded for his meritorious service, or won by a bet with Zhu Zhanji, or it was given to him by Hanhan and hundreds of officials, although he didn't do anything, but he got a reputation.

In short, they all didn't come easily.

Households.

Hubu Shangshu's repeated prevarication completely angered Li Qing.

"I'll ask you one last time, you still haven't paid it back?"

"Of course." There is an emperor's clear text, how dare the head of the household department say that he will not pay it back, "But now that the household department has no money, the money will definitely be repaid, but it will have to wait until there is money in the future." ”

"Less nonsense, pay it back now." Li Qing was too lazy to listen to his ramblings, "If you don't pay back the money, I'm going to shake someone." ”

Hubu Shangshu frowned, and said unhappily: "Li Qincha, you are Qincha, this official has already given you enough face, but don't forget, you are just a seven-grade military department to give things, besides, you represent the emperor and the imperial court, why do you benefit a rich gentleman so much?" ”

Li Qing smiled angrily, "It is natural to repay debts, this is called seeking welfare?"

You also said that Ben Qincha represents the emperor, it is the emperor who borrows the money, and it is the emperor who pays the money, but you are here to push back and obstruct.

To put it mildly, you are slacking off government affairs, and to say it bigger, you are making the emperor bear the notoriety of not paying back the money, you are resisting the decree! ”

Li Qing sneered, "With this, Ben Qincha has the right to take you." ”

"Li Du is in the middle of the matter!"

"Please call me Chincha-sama!"

Hubu Shangshu was angry, flicked the sleeves of his robe, and hummed: "The money will be repaid, but not now, there is no money now." ”

Li Qing secretly sneered: I was looking for an opportunity to establish his authority and build momentum for Shen Xin, okay, it's you.

He didn't talk nonsense, turned around and walked out of the yamen.

Weaving Bureau.

"Father-in-law, go and call Jinyiwei's brother over, I want to take a person."

"Which blind person dares to mess with Lord Qincha?" Xiao Liuzi was angry when he heard this, and rolled up his arms and sleeves, "My lord, you just say who to take, right?" ”

"Tobe Shangshu."

"Huh?" Xiao Liuzi was shocked.

"He resisted."

"Oh."

That's fine...... Xiao Liuzi smiled, "Wait a minute, my lord, let's go and shake people." ”

Afternoon.

Li Qing led a group of brocade guards to kill the yamen of the household department.

"What are you going to do?"

"Qin sent to handle the case, and the idle people were out of the way." Xiao Liuzi is full of style, "Violators will be punished for rebellion." ”

When the official heard this, he immediately wilted and obediently stepped aside.

Li Qing led the people straight to the back hall of the yamen.

Hubu Shangshu was leisurely drinking tea, and when he saw Li Qing coming in with a group of brocade guards, he was surprised: "What are you doing?" ”

Li Qingyi waved his hand: "Take it." ”

Jin Yiwei doesn't care so much, what he followed Qin was the Qin case, which was absolutely politically correct.

When the book of the household was pressed, it was dragged out by the reverse cut.

"Let go, let go of the official." Hubu Shangshu was furious, "Li Qing, you are so daring, you dare to declare a personal vendetta." ”

Li Qingli ignored it and said directly: "Go to Zhao Prison!" ”

"Yes, sir."

Jinyi Wei Gong should be.

Nanzhili also has a Zhao prison.

"Pay back, pay back." When the head of the household saw that Li Qing was really coming, he immediately turned from anger to fear, and said in shock: "This official will let people prepare silver taels." ”

"It's late." Li Qing sneered.

"You're ......!" Hubu Shangshu was furious, and immediately smiled, "Misunderstanding, it was all a misunderstanding before, and I ask Li Qincha to forgive him, this official ......"

Li Qing didn't bother to listen to his noise, "Go down." ”

"Li Qing, you dare? The old man wants to write a book, and he wants to impeach you......" The shout of the Tobe Shangshu gradually faded away.

Li Qing pursed his lips and said to the frightened waiter on the side, "Can you pay back?" ”

"Yes, that's great." The waiter nodded hurriedly, "Tomorrow at the latest, no, today, before dark today, the silver will definitely be returned to the Zhu Mansion for a penny." ”

Li Qing nodded: "What's your name?" ”

"Down... The official's name is Wang Mao. ”

The Qincha is an identity, not an official position, not to mention that the official of the yamen is still there, this squire is trying his best to maintain his face, because he vaguely expected something.

"Your boss has openly disobeyed the holy decree, and Benchin sent him to take him." Li Qing gave an explanation, and then said, "Without him, can you stabilize it?" ”

Opportunity, great opportunity...... Wang Mao immediately said, "This is natural." ”

The six departments of Nanzhili are similar to pensions, although they also have official documents, but they are far from being comparable to Jingshi. gōΠb.ōγg

Wang Mao was afraid that his former boss would not die completely, so he immediately stabbed him again, "Li Qincha, this official is about to impeach him, in the second half of last year, there was a big problem with the funds for repairing the embankment and city wall, which exceeded the budget by 30%. ”

"Is there such a thing?" Li Qing showed a look of surprise.

"Absolutely." Wang Mao hurriedly said, "The lower official can provide evidence." ”

The excess part, he didn't get oil and water, and he always remembered the grudge in his heart.
