Chapter 8 Why Is It Gao Lishi?

At nine o'clock in the morning, a depressed Li Chengqi came over.

He was really depressed, so he sent someone to contact the big restaurant owner.

As a result, the people sent came back and said that those people had already gone to buy soy sauce.

Li Chengqi, who felt that he had not been able to help, came over to take a look and saw a group of people queuing up to make soy sauce.

"Don't sell it, don't sell it, call your boss out, I'll take care of it all." Someone shouted anxiously.

The people on Zhuangzi ignored it and continued to sell, with a purchase limit of ten kilograms per person.

It's easy to deal with not bringing a jar, the village has one.

At the beginning, Li Yi felt that ten kilograms at a time was good, so he specially cut out a lot of ten kilograms of small jars.

It comes in handy now, put it in a jar, cover it with oil paper, tie it tightly with a rope, and take it away.

A ten-pound pottery jar costs one hundred and twenty yuan per jar.

There is no pattern on the jar and the surface is rough.

The same jar in Chang'an City costs a hundred yuan.

When everyone came, few brought their own utensils.

Now that the price is not very expensive, I bought it, otherwise I would have to queue up again when I went back to pick it up.

Li Yi, who put down his chopsticks and waited in the restaurant, was extremely regretful at this moment.

If I had known, if I could burn a jar with a capacity of one kilogram, one person would be limited to ten kilograms. Selling jars would make more money than selling soy sauce.

At this time, the person who bought the soy sauce outside quickly sent someone to send it back, and he queued to the back of the line again.

There are people rolling up silk fabrics nearby. Before, they had to separate a piece of silk or silk to pay for the jar.

The steward refused and cut the cloth into pieces. How can I, Zhuangzi, use it?

If the proprietor had not said that he could not refuse the silk, he would have only needed copper coins.

The steward who collected the money was in a gloomy mood. They were all rags. They were rotten inside. They were profiteers.

Li Yi also knew that the cloth was not good, but it didn't matter. When the time comes, I will surrender to the imperial court for reconciliation.

The rent must be in the form of grain, and Yong Tiao can directly give it to cloth.

"Brother Yi, why don't you eat?" Li Chengqi came over and saw Li Yi sitting there reading a book.

The book he turned over was "Yonghui Law", a legal book used at this time.

Li Yi put down the book: "Brother is here, sit down quickly."

As he said this, he went to make tea, using boiling water instead of boiling it.

The tea at this time is all fermented tea, not green tea.

Lu Yu, who wrote the "Tea Classic", was not born yet.

No one puts the phrase "the swaying wind and rain are not bitter, even after frost and snow, the beauty becomes brighter" on tea.

After making tea, Li Yi put another plate of dried fruits on the table, and the two of them sat across from each other.

"Why doesn't Brother Yi eat?" Li Chengqi asked again.

"I haven't eaten yet. I just took two bites and someone came to buy oil. The busy person didn't eat. How can the idle person swallow it?" Li Yi replied.

This is a habit he has developed. The boss and employees eat together.

Suddenly I received a series of phone calls, and the employees immediately went to work. Does the boss dare to eat alone? Dare you! ?

Li Chengqi looked at Li Yi blankly, and then nodded gently: "What brother Yi said is absolutely true."

"Brother, are you free today? Didn't you go collect stones?" Li Yi found a topic.

"I asked people to do it. I wanted to invite people to come and buy soy sauce, but I learned that someone had come early after midnight. There was a lot of worry in Pingkang Square last night, and everyone said that it was soy sauce."

Li Chengqi explained the situation. Last night was soy sauce.

Li Yi smiled, and it seemed that he had not invited so many people to dinner in vain.

Li Chengqi didn't smile, he asked: "Maybe Brother Yi keeps the secret recipe of soy sauce?"

"Don't let the people in Zhuangzi go out. When I make more money and have new things, the soy sauce won't matter anymore."

Li Yi hesitated and gave a solution.

He was afraid that people in Zhuangzi would be put into sacks if they went outside.

"How can we prevent bad people from entering if we don't leave?" Li Chengqi shook his head.

"Big brother, teach me." Li Yi understood, this big brother has a way.

"Tugong." Li Chengqi said two words.

"Is there a way?" Li Yi looked forward to it.

"Forgot that we are relatives of the emperor?" Li Chengqi emphasized his identity.

"Gong, how much per year?" Li Yi planned to send soy sauce to the emperor.

Then, even if others got hold of the method of making soy sauce, they would not dare to sell it. If they did, they would look up how to learn how to make it.

"One thousand catties, the rest of the palace will go to the village to buy it." Li Chengqi stretched out his finger.

Li Yi didn't care when he heard that a thousand catties were given to him for free, but when he heard that there was not enough food in the palace and sent people to buy it, his liver trembled.

Because Lao Bai once wrote, "A cart of charcoal weighs more than a thousand catties, and the palace envoy will not be able to get it." Half a piece of red gauze and one foot of silk are tied to the cow's head and filled with charcoal. ’

For those who buy it in the palace, if they have one thousand kilograms of charcoal, they will give half a piece of red yarn and one foot of silk.

If you switch to your own village, should you take a hundred pounds of soy sauce and throw away two rags to settle the matter?

After lowering his head and thinking about it, Li Yi asked, "Who are the two people who serve as the chief ministers of the Provincial Food Bureau in the palace? What is their conduct?"

"Why did Brother Yi ask about the province in the palace?" Li Chengqi was surprised.

"There is not enough soy sauce in the palace, why don't they come to buy it?" Li Yi said.

Li Chengqi smiled and shook his head: "Brother Yi, I don't know, but the palace comes to buy soy sauce, and the people from the Guanglu Temple Treasures Department will take care of it."

"Ah!" Li Yi suddenly realized that he didn't just have a eunuch come out and grab something by force.

It is good to be an official, but those who are officials should not dare to be too blatant.

"Excuse me, brother, for running around." Li Yi clasped his fists. This brother is so good that he can get a special quota for him.

"It's such a small thing, it's nothing to worry about." Li Chengqi was happy that he finally helped his younger brother.

Otherwise, I will always take things for nothing and feel guilty.

The two started chatting about "Yonghui Law" again.

Li Chengqi told Li Yi some classic penalties as stories.

It was noon outside and the soy sauce sales had stopped.

No more selling. One person sold ten kilograms today for fifty large jars.

One tank costs 200 jins, and 10,000 jins are sold.

I made half a million from soy sauce, mostly in rags and a small amount in copper coins.

Then the jars are sold for a thousand dollars. Even if the person comes with a vat, he can't just hold ten kilograms of soy sauce. Isn't this a cleaning of the vat?

Let's just buy the jars directly, one hundred and twenty thousand yuan, and we will get 120,000 yuan.

The steward told people that there was no more, and from the day after tomorrow, he could only sell two hundred catties a day.

Those who didn't buy it left angrily.

Li Yi invited everyone to eat, so don't move the cloth yet.

When everyone returned to the restaurant, they saw the proprietor waiting all the time, and their eyes were red with emotion.

Li Chengqi ate a meal of noodles that had been aged for a long time and had a bad taste. He put a small jar of chop suey sauce and left.

"Pick some good silk and make some clothes for the adults."

Li Yi told the people carrying the silk, "When you have money, let's make new clothes."

"Proprietor." Song De, the steward, wanted to persuade.

"Just know that I am the proprietor." Li Yi insisted.

The boss of the village is counting on these people. If they don't give benefits, they won't work hard.

What I want is life, what’s the use of having money piled there?

"Yes, proprietor." Song De agreed, turning to look at the others: "Work hard."

Everyone nodded vigorously and worked hard to do the job well.

Li Yi put his hands behind his back and walked to a small room where students lived.

It's warm today and there's enough time at noon.

The students removed all the shutters from the windows of the cabins and read with the windows open.

There is no window paper in the house, so it is covered by three splicable wooden boards.

In winter, if there is a warm wall, a window panel will be put down.

What's more, when you get cold while reading a book outside, you go inside to warm yourself up.

In their house, there are two paintings of thin gold calligraphy written by Li Yi for them.

One pair: The thin land is planted with pines and cypresses, and the poor family is studying.

One pair: How can you enjoy the fragrance of plum blossoms without experiencing a bone-chilling cold?

Therefore, the students are very diligent and I don’t know if they will succeed in submitting their application, but if there is a chance that they are not good enough, there is nothing they can do.

Students understand.

This is Chang'an, the capital city. How many people have nowhere to stay and can only stay in temples.

Those are not places where one person has one room.

It was this young proprietor who was walking around the streets.

Asked: Is there anyone willing to put down their dignity and work for the farmers? You can come with me.

Then he and the others couldn't stand it any longer. Face was nothing, so they followed the young man.

I never thought that I would have a house to live in after I came here. I didn’t farm mulberry trees every day, but just helped clean up the cowshed, pig house, and chicken pen.

The young proprietor was rushing ahead to build a house and do some work.

Those who wanted to come later were no longer available. Only I can wait for forty-two.

Because the owner said he didn’t have time to build a house, it’s not that he didn’t want more people to live in him until next year.

Now that they saw Li Yi coming, they all said hello.

"I have gained a lot today. I went to find plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums to measure myself. I will wear silk clothes for each person. It will not be rude to entertain guests later."

Li Yi told the students to find four maidservants and measure them to make new clothes.

As for who does it, of course it’s not the people in the village. There are too many and they are too busy.

Even Master Zhuangzi's clothes have to be outsourced, which means he doesn't save money.

The students happily accepted it without rejecting it.

They had to understand clearly that Li Yixian was not a man who was uneducated in literature.

Literati help each other, and it is the business of scholars.

Of course, you have to clean up the cowshed when you need to clean up the cowshed, and you can’t stop when you need to teach your children.

Seventeen children were practicing calligraphy, using brushes dipped in water to write on the wooden board.

Paper is too expensive, even straw paper, straw paper...

Li Yi now uses straw paper when going to the toilet. He really can't stand scraping with bamboo chips or anything like that.

Li Yi said he couldn't accept the toilet chip.

The five girls who practice calligraphy work the hardest. They know this is their last chance.

Either study well or go to work.

Then just like other women, just find someone to marry.

Give birth to babies, raise babies, and get beaten.

Just like in the past when father beat mother, mother could only cry.

Now I don’t fight anymore. Life at home is easy and my father is happy.

And the proprietor's brother said that he was not allowed to fight, and he would be driven out of Zhuangzi if he was beaten.

And if you study well, you will naturally find different people.

The boys are much more naughty, and there are always children who get distracted.

Li Yi didn't care when he saw it. Anyway, he would be at the bottom of the exam and someone would take care of him when he got home.

I won’t let your father beat your mother, but I didn’t say I won’t let your father and your mother beat you together.

**

At around three o'clock in the afternoon, someone came to the palace.

A tall man took the lead, UU Reading www. uukanｓhu. net This guy looks very handsome.

As soon as the visitor saw Li Yi, he was very affectionate and said: "Master Li Yi, from today on, the soy sauce served in your village will become a tribute. This is the official text."

While talking, he gave Li Yi a document.

It proves that the soy sauce served by Li Yi Zhuangzi is a tribute. If others want to rush into Zhuangzi and grab it, they should think about the consequences first.

Li Yi happily took it. The eldest brother did things safely, but the key was to be fast.

"Dongzhu Li, I'm here to buy soy sauce from the harem." This man told what was going to happen in the future.

"I wonder where this elder brother comes from..." Li Yi asked.

"Supervisor of the Ministry of Internal Affairs." The visitor still had a friendly smile.

Li Yi: "..."

Didn’t you make an agreement with someone from the Guanglu Temple Treasures Department? Why are you still a eunuch?

Brother, you are not doing this right.

"Are Dongzhu Li happy?" Seeing Li Yi in a daze, the other party asked in a louder voice.

"Ah, hi, um, I wonder what you call eldest brother?" Li Yi felt his hands and feet getting cold.

"Gao Lishi." The other party said.

Li Yi: "..."

Oh my god, why is it him?

Yes, the current supervisor of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is Gao Lishi.

"It turned out to be Doctor Gao in front of me." Li Yi clasped his fists, with his left hand in front and his right hand behind.

"I prefer martial arts." Gao Lishi whispered.

"It turns out to be General Gao. I'm rude and disrespectful." Li Yi quickly clasped his fists again, with his right hand in front and his left hand behind.

Li Yi was relieved. This person was not a supervisor at all, but was in charge of the entire Ministry of Internal Affairs, and both supervisors were present.

Then there are Gao Lishi and two casual officials, one civil and one military, one is the third rank, and the other is the third rank.

The key is that he is the person next to the emperor. Looking at him today, he doesn't look like a eunuch at all.
