About a quarter of an hour later, the gate of the Hou Mansion opened again.

Li Xue'er walked over with anticipation, and when she saw that it was really Li Qing outside the door, her face was filled with joy, but it was only for a moment, and she was all gone in an instant, and then she found Tang Bohu beside Li Qing.

"Is that you?"

"We seem to have seen ...... somewhere" Tang Bohu blurted out, and then, recalling the past, he said to himself, "Oh, yes, when Tianfu released the list......

He quickly came back to his senses and arched his hand: "It's polite to be here." ”

Li Xue'er returned the salute and walked up to Li Qing, "I thought you wouldn't come back for a long time, come home quickly." ”

She instructed the servant, "Go and let the kitchen prepare a sumptuous meal." ”

"Yes, miss." The little guy didn't dare to slack off, so he hurried away.

The second entrance to the courtyard, the guest hall.

The three of them were seated separately.

Tang Bohu was surprised that Li Qing was sitting on the main seat, but Miss Li didn't say anything, and he wouldn't talk much.

Li Qing asked: "Li Hao is not at home, why is your mother not here?" Busy at home? ”

"Didn't you say it, add more new products." Li Xue'er rolled her eyes and said, "Mother has been busy since she came back." ”

"Huh...... I forgot about it. Li Qing's face was hot, and then he snorted, "Why don't you go and help?" ”

"I'm not good at business, besides, how can my daughter's family show up?" Li Xueer sneered.

"When I sneaked on to the boat, I didn't see you like this." Li Qing rolled his eyes and said, "Tang Bohu, you know, so I won't introduce it, and I came back this time mainly to help him raise his name." ”

Li Xue'er was confused, she didn't know what this meant, but she didn't ask the reason, after all, the party was still there, she nodded and asked:

"How to raise?"

"Start with poetry and painting to create the Jiangnan ...... of the past No, it's better than it used to be. Li Qingdao said, "You pride yourself on being smart, and this matter will be handed over to you." ”

"What about you?" Li Xue'er frowned, "Shouldn't you go out again?" ”

"No, I'm blessed!" Li Qing was right.

Li Xue'er smiled, "That's right, okay, this matter is on Xue'er." ”

After a pause, "The wine and food will take a while, Tang Dacai, please come with me." ”

"Go, where?"

Li Xue'er rolled her beautiful eyes and said with a smile:

"Of course, it's to help you find a house to live in, raising a name is not something that can be raised in a day or two, the person who comes is a guest, can the Yongqing Marquis Mansion still let the guests live outside?"

Tang Bohu sneered: "In this way, it will be disturbed." ”

"You're welcome." Li Xueer has a delicate personality with his mother, but it is still okay to treat people and things, and she is generous and decent.

~

Running all the way, Tang Bohu ate some wine and food, then confessed and went back to the side room to rest.

Li Qing was accustomed to high-intensity travel, and did not have any discomfort, while eating chilled watermelon, he asked about the development details of the Li family's industry.

After three years of leaving, when he came back and heard about Tang Bohu, he didn't even enter his home, so he went straight to Su. state, haven't had time to ask about the family industry.

"Generally speaking, it is booming, and the eldest brother has given up some industries, and at this stage, it is mainly engaged in high value-added commodities and focuses on secondary processing." Li Xue'er said, "I don't know much about Xue'er, the eldest brother is not busy all day, and there are free times, Grandpa Li, you are not in a hurry to leave, you can learn about these things with the eldest brother when the time comes." ”

"Well, that's fine." Li Qing picked up a watermelon again, bit it, and asked, "What about you, can you make progress in your true qi cultivation?" ”

"No, no." Li Xueer said, "I can hardly feel the obvious changes, I obviously work hard." ”

"If you want to be fast, you have such achievements at a young age, which is far beyond your peers, besides, you have only been practicing for a few years, and the future is promising." Li Qing comforted, and then asked, "Xiao Xue'er, are you hard-hearted?" ”

"Uh...... Be. ”

Li Qing sighed, didn't say more, and lost the interest in eating melons, got up and said:

"Tang Bohu is very important to my layout, you should pay more attention to the matter of helping him raise his name."

"yes, okay." Li Xue'er agreed, and asked instead, "Grandpa Li, what are you laying out?" ”

Without waiting for Li Qing to hit her, Li Xue'er hurriedly added, "Grandpa Li, you don't want to be patriarchal, in the future, I can also carry things and help you." ”

She looked serious.

Li Qing groaned and said, "A big game of chess!" ”

“…… Specifically? ”

"It's not time for you to know yet." Li Qing smiled bitterly, "After all...... I am not absolutely sure, all I can do is to increase the probability of success infinitely, but in the end, whether it can be achieved or not is not something I can decide. ”

"Da Ming is too big, and his personal will is insignificant, so he can only make changes little by little through small details." Li Qing sighed lightly, "I only want quantitative changes to cause qualitative changes, and I don't have the luxury of expecting everything to come as I expected." ”

"Grandpa Li, don't be too tired......"

Li Qing smiled: "It's okay, I've long been used to it, combined with the changes in the Ming Dynasty, my concept is not wrong, and the future is ...... I'm confident, too! ”

"Hmm." Li Xue'er nodded heavily, and said with a smile, "Who are you, Daming Yongqing Marquis." ”

"Less sycophants." Li Qing glared at her, "By the way, what about your father?" ”

"Daddy went to Fu. I heard that after more than three years at sea, the Japanese have made trouble again. Li Xue'er was helpless and distressed, "Daddy, he is just like you, he is tired of life." ”

Li Qing was silent for a long time, and said: "This is the path he chose himself, alas, in fact, I don't want him to be like this." ”

Li Xue'er hurriedly said: "Xue'er didn't blame you, it just ...... It's just that I feel sorry for my father. ”

"Well, I'll go for a walk."

"Cher is with you."

"I'll go to Qinglou, and you'll go too?"

"......" Li Xue'er's face was full of black lines, and she said hatefully: "Is it that Tang Bohu who brought you badly." ”

Li Qing was speechless: "You know a hammer!" ”

“…… Go, go, you're good to go. ”

"Hey?"

Li Xue'er saw that he was about to get angry, shrunk her neck, and walked away.

He still shouted, "I don't care about your prostitution ......"

Li Qing: "......"

In other words, there is not much money to come......

~

Jinling City, bustling streets.

Tang Bohu is dressed in white and has white hair, dignified and elegant, his appearance is already outstanding, and he is deliberately handsome, which really attracts attention.

With the development of industry and commerce, the people are rich at the same time, but also dare to consume, without him, in this era, as long as you are willing to work, you will not worry about not earning money.

This also makes the atmosphere in Jiangnan more and more open, and big girls and little daughters-in-law can be seen everywhere on the street.

People, when they have money, they love to show off and compare, men and women are the same.

It's just a different request.

Tang Bohu's advertising slogan was designed by Li Xueer, which is really eye-catching.

Do you want to stay young forever in another way? Do you want to record the best years? Do you want to ......

Jiangnan genius Tang Bohu, meet your wishes!

Don't want five thousand taels, don't want five hundred taels, just fifty taels! Today only, tomorrow's price increase! 】

Good guy, Tang Bohu called him a good guy!

At the beginning, he asked people for five taels of silver, and he felt that the lion opened his mouth, and today it has increased tenfold, this, this...... Why don't you say that people will do business?

The asking price is really too expensive, and the people of Jinling are rich, but they can spend so much money to buy a painting, which is really extravagant.

In front of the booth, there was a lot of congestion, but there was no one who really wanted to paint.

Tang Bohu asked in a low voice, "That...... Miss Li, are we pricing too high? ”

"Do you know what marketing is?" Li Xueer asked rhetorically.

Of course Tang Bohu didn't know, he asked blankly: "What is marketing?" ”

"You don't understand." Li Xue'er said lightly, "Just follow this, you can't be wrong." ”

"Okay." Tang Bohu no longer questioned it, and simply let it go, just fifty taels, not a single child is missing.

As expected, he set up a stall for a day and did not sell a single order, but Tang Bohu's reputation was launched, and many people knew that this talented man was now setting up a stall in Jinling to paint.

It's just that this reputation is full of negative ......

However, Tang Bohu didn't think there was anything, as the saying goes: if there are more lice, it is not itchy, and if there are more debts, there is no worry!

There are more people scolding him, no more.

Of course, the main thing is that he believes in Li Qing!

The next day, Tang Bohu came out of the stall again, and under Li Xueer's suggestion, the price increased to one hundred taels.

Good guys, the people who eat melons call themselves good guys, do you dare to be black again?

For a while, there was a lot of discussion in Jinling City, which soon aroused the curiosity of the wealthy families in Jinling.

Shall I see what's going on?

When they arrived to see the excitement, the price of a painting doubled again, two hundred taels!

As soon as the price came out, many people scolded directly, if it weren't for the good security of Nanzhili, Tang Bohu would have been beaten, and he would have to be beaten at the lightest, what is the difference between this and robbery?

Another day later, the price rose again, three hundred taels!

Now, the people who eat melons have calmed down, and their enthusiasm for eating melons is even stronger, and they all want to see which fool will come to buy paintings!

Li Qing is here.

Bid three hundred taels!

Tang Bohu didn't dare to slack off, took out twelve points of seriousness, and painted a painting all morning.

As soon as the finished product comes out, it is amazing!

The people who eat melons are amazed, and they can be said to be shocked.

At this point, no one doubts the level of Tang Bohu's paintings, but there are still great objections to the price.

They asked him to return to the original fifty taels.

However, Tang Bohu was unmoved, and arrogantly said: The price will increase tomorrow!

……

On the second day, one of Tang Bohu's paintings rose to 500 taels.

Not only that, but he also limited himself to making only one painting a day, and no matter how much money he gave, he would not make a second painting.

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.

Of course, business really came.

The person who came was a rich gentleman with a head and a face in Jinling, who came with a little concubine, and threw five hundred taels for Tang Bohu to paint, but there were also words in advance, if he was not satisfied, he would open his stall!

Tang Bohu was naturally not afraid and immediately began to paint.

Under his pen, the little concubine's already good appearance became more and more moving, the eyebrows, the eyes, and the lips...... It is no less than an all-round beauty.

People are beautiful, paintings are more beautiful!

The little concubine was so happy that she couldn't put it down, and the rich man pretended to be a wave in front of everyone, and felt that the money was well spent, so he left laughing and leaving......

This matter soon spread among the wealthy......
