Chapter 793 Neighbors Exchange Contracts
Bringing the system to the Tang Dynasty Chapter 793 Neighbors exchanged contracts Princess Yongmu read the newspaper and heard about Li Yi, and learned to consider people's livelihood.
She was not afraid of other businessmen, she was the eldest princess.
She had a naughty, no, righteous heart, and wanted to deal with the other party.
The current problem was that she didn't know how to do it. Should she expose her identity as a princess to scare the other party to death?
Or tell her father and let him deal with him?
It felt so difficult, what to do?
"Little girl, why don't you write a letter to Li Dongzhu and see what Li Dongzhu will do."
Xiaolan stayed with Princess Yongmu all day, and immediately understood the princess's thoughts and difficulties.
"We just said goodbye, how can I write again?" Princess Yongmu showed an embarrassed look.
"Talk to Li Dongzhu first, let Li Dongzhu be prepared, it's too late, Li Dongzhu can only act hastily." Xiaolan was anxious.
"Where... writing." Princess Yongmu felt like making a pen pal, and prepared to write a letter to tell Li Yi that someone wanted to rob the manor, although this manor was very small.
Xiaolan brought over the four treasures of the study and poured ink on the side. Jingzhao Prefecture basically used ink, which was cheap.
Ink sticks were also made of ink, which was dried little by little and then formed into sticks.
Lijiazhuangzi made ink and had ink sticks, which were made with traditional craftsmanship. Ink sticks were easy to carry and could be used as money.
Good ink sticks should be painted with gold, packaged in special boxes, and lined with silk pads.
Ordinary ink sticks were not dried very well, were not dense enough, and smelled.
The main reason for the smelly ink was the materials used. Ink made with animal colloids smelled, but ink made with plant colloids did not smell.
It would also smell if it was made with raw water for a long time. It would be better to seal it with distilled water, and it would not smell if preservatives were added.
In the process of making ink sticks and ink, Lijiazhuangzi had a large amount of ink, which was not smelly, and the craftsmanship was very good.
Lijiazhuangzi sold it very cheaply to people in Jingzhao Prefecture, and merchants were willing to buy it and transport it to other places.
The court has always used the ink of Li's manor. The ink sticks are bought by themselves for home use, but not used in the court. Who would use their own ink if there is free one?
Princess Yongmu smelled it and found it had a fresh fragrance, not smelly.
She picked up the pen, bit her lip and thought for a while, and wrote: Winter snow is blowing, spring water is flowing. Summer rain is light and worrying, and grain and fruit are in autumn. Labor should be rewarded, Sui people stay in Tang. The law is revised and repaired, and the nine states are square. Now there is a strong demand, stealing hooks like a marquis. A hundred acres of fields, two thousand strings of money. Five days is the beginning, and I am worried about my life.
After writing, she took a look and found no typos, so she put down the pen: "Send it tomorrow morning."
"Okay!" Xiaolan waited for the ink to dry, she was excited, she wanted to see Li Yi's move.
Zhou Gui, who was in charge of the small manor outside, no longer considered the surname Jiang, he knew that the other party could not touch his small manor.
Such a big mirror, and there are more small mirrors, perfume, kerosene lamps, thermos, these are not bought for use, they are purely for storage.
How big a family business can afford these things? It is impossible to have money alone.
What exactly does the boss I found this time do? Don't let anything happen.
Zhou Gui wanted to run away and stop playing.
But he knew that if he dared to run, he would be ruined. The people in the manor took out a mirror, which was enough to kill him.
"Manager Zhou, what are you going to eat tonight?" Li An came to ask in person. He didn't want his wife to take the lead. If he wanted to die, he would die first.
"Go to the greenhouse to pick vegetables. We don't dare to eat them on weekdays. The owner is back, so let's eat."
Zhou Gui looked at Li An and felt a sense of sympathy. Everyone had to bear it.
"Is there anyone? We are Hu merchants, Hu merchants from the manor next door." A voice came from outside.
Zhou Gui signaled Li An not to move first. He tidied his clothes and went out to see the situation.
Hu merchants were highly valued in the Tang Dynasty. The Silk Road was occupied by the Turks, and Hu merchants were able to sell some things there, and there were also Tubo.
Hu merchants usually traded in the West Market, and some also trafficked in people, bringing people from other places to sell.
Hu merchants bought five places around, and Zhou Gui felt that his manor was half surrounded.
Except for the line of the road, all other places were full of Hu merchants. Hu merchants were powerful and should not be underestimated.
Zhou Gui didn't know who he was serving, and thought who was more powerful.
There were four guards standing at the door, and the others were resting or acting as sentinels, following the style of Yulin Feiqi.
Zhou Gui went out and saw five people in Hu clothing standing at the door, one of them was empty-handed, and the other four were carrying a slaughtered sheep.
"Manager Zhou? Our boss is Boluoyeduo. It's a big nuisance to build a house now. Send a lamb over for the neighbors to taste."
The empty-handed man smiled and bowed.
Zhou Gui: "..."
He wanted to ask the other party, how many days have passed, why didn't you send it when my boss didn't come back? Was it accidental? Coincidence?
"This... so, thank you very much, my boss will definitely be happy, as a courtesy." Zhou Gui didn't say what was in his heart.
So the newly killed sheep belonged to the manor, and the five people said goodbye and left.
On the other side, a guard went in from the back and found the maid to talk to.
The maid found Princess Yongmu again: "Little girl, most of the people around are related to the palace. They didn't say it themselves, but the guards saw it."
"Yes!" Princess Yongmu showed a cute and innocent look, with a happy look on her face.
She knew who arranged it. If there was anything in the future, she would call out and a large group of people would rush out.
There was also an unsightly shed on the road outside. Now think about it, there can be several people there.
So they ate mutton in the evening, and the guards and palace maids helped. Li An's family didn't know how to make all kinds of stir-fried dishes and roasted mutton banquets.
"In the future, take out the vegetables in the greenhouse and eat them directly. If there are any bad dishes for the hired workers working in the greenhouse, take them away when you leave at night."
Xiao Lan told Zhou Gui that Princess Yongmu didn't need to worry about this matter.
As for the greenhouse vegetables that can be sold, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net Whether the people in your own manor can eat them, you still need to think about it. The Li family's manor is grown for their own people to eat.
Everyone ate together. Princess Yongmu sat a little further away to emphasize her status, but she still ate at a long table.
She was trying to learn from Li Yi. Li Yi was good at leading the farmers. No farmer was disrespectful and respectful to Li Yi.
The farmers were proud of being farmers of the Li family's manor, and others would look up to them when they went out.
Your own manor should be like this, and the people of the Tang Dynasty should be like this even more.
As Tang people, people from other places should respect them, otherwise the Tang cavalry will go and deal with them.
Everyone ate, including the guards who were rotated off.
Zhou Gui ate two bites and couldn't help it. He looked at the five people he recruited, and the five people nodded vigorously.
Zhou Gui stood up and looked at Princess Yongmu first, then at Xiaolan.
"Master Wang, Li An and I thought about it. It's not easy to find a job now. We feel at ease to work in the manor."
Xiaolan looked at Zhou Gui and didn't understand what he meant. Isn't it good to be willing to stay in the manor?
"So, we want to sign a death contract with the owner." Zhou Gui finally said it.
They want to sign a death contract. They know too much. Such a big mirror has never been seen in Chang'an.
There are only small glass mirrors with makeup boxes, which are circulated in the upper class.
Each one is said to be assigned to a person. Who can have it and who can't have it represents identity and status.
And the boxes in the manor are moving. Tell me, what is this identity? If you don't sign a death contract, can you get out alive?
