Datang Happy Landlord

Chapter 556;
Chapter 550;

When the craftsman who praised Lord Hou heard that he was rewarded with five hundred coins, he immediately burst into laughter from ear to ear;
"Thank you, Lord Marquis, for the reward. Thank you, Lord Marquis!"

Seeing his companion say a few good words and immediately get a reward of [-] big money, the remaining five two immediately turned red. This is [-] big money, my God, I'm afraid that's the amount of hard work all year round... …

"Reporting to Lord Hou, the villain has also heard about Lord Hou's reputation outside, and they all say that Lord Hou is Xiao Mengchangjun, who is extremely anxious and righteous..."

"Master Hou, Lord Hou, the villain has also heard that Master Hou is famous, and it is said that you are the Living God of Wealth..."

"Master Hou..."

"Report to Lord Hou..."

What Li Yu wanted was to adjust the enthusiasm of these people so that they could relax physically and mentally. Seeing the speeches of the remaining five craftsmen scrambling, Li Yu stretched out his hands and waved them;

"Don't be in a hurry, come here, reward them with five hundred dollars each, and do it right away."

"It's Mr. Lang."

With a promise, Xichun turned her head and gave orders to the servants who followed;
"Go to the front to get the money and come here so as not to delay your affairs."

"It's a lady, the villain will go right away."

Li Yu chatted with the six craftsmen about his family's problems. Li Yu didn't worry about it at all, and he didn't need to deliberately maintain it. Li Yu just sat in the group of Li's second-family clansmen, and didn't dislike it on the ground. Dirty and dusty, he leaned on the lap of a middle-aged man relaxedly and happily, watching with a smile as the servants brought three silver coins and distributed them to six craftsmen.

The six craftsmen obviously breathed a sigh of relief after taking the reward in their hands. Li Yu saw it sincerely, but he could also understand that the common people are like this.

The clansmen of the second house of the Li family obviously looked down on these craftsmen, seeing their petty looks, they all dismissed them. Of course, the head of my family said that it would be hard to chase after what he said, so why not?Will you breathe a sigh of relief when you get the money?What the hell is this?
"Thank you, Lord Hou, for the reward."

"Thank you, Lord Hou, for the reward."

"Excuse me, please don't be restrained. By the way, I would like to say something gossip. What do you and the other six make a living? Do you sell white paper? Or open a shop?"

After receiving the money, they quickly hung it around their necks and covered it with their clothes. The six craftsmen relaxed after talking for a while, and sat down on the ground in the yard like Li Yu. The one who spoke first was obviously the most courageous. belongs to a familiar;
"Hi! Back to Lord Hou, you don't know something. This is my second brother, we two brothers, one of Aye and Auntie. We are descendants of the Liu family who make bamboo paper in the south, but we are a branch. The descendants of the branch of the sect belong to the people who are no one to care about and no one to ask about, and they know the handicrafts handed down in the family, but there is no cost to open a shop, who has that ability?"

"Oh! Haven't asked your honorable name yet?"

"Oh, you can't do it, you can't do it, a villain dare not be a villain. Master Hou, please don't talk to a villain like this. Back to Master Hou, the villain is called Liu Fugui. This is my younger brother Liu Fuquan. Master Hou, you can call me Liu Da." Yes, my younger brother is usually called Liu Er."

Li Yu smiled and nodded;

"The name given by your father is really good. It means wealth and wealth. It's great! But I don't understand. You can't wait to open a shop to sell paper. Could it be that they all open workshops to make bamboo paper?"

Before Liu Da could speak, his brother spoke;

"If you go back to Lord Hou, how can you have the capital to open a workshop? If you don't have it, eating and drinking is a problem for the whole family. Don't be afraid that Lord Hou will laugh at you. Our family is also a small household in the south, and we want to come to the north for a while. Famous, it turns out that four generations have come here, except for the ancestral handicraft of making white paper, nothing else is left. It is the land and fields that were allocated in the new dynasty in the past few years, so that we can have enough food. In the past, there was such a thing in the chaos of war. Don't pause, Lord Hou, how can such a door open a workshop?"

"Yes, Lord Hou, our family is the same as his family, but we are from Sichuan, and we all have nothing but craftsmanship..."

"Reporting to Lord Hou, on weekdays, I farm and plow the land. When the farm work is not busy, I find some odd jobs to do. With a few big money, I can repair the farm tools and maintain my life. If you want extra spare money? I'm afraid it will not be easy. I don’t know about other people’s families, anyway, my family can’t even get a hundred dollars!”

"That's right, Lord Hou, it's God's eyes to be able to eat enough these days. Don't hide it from Lord Hou. The clothes worn by the villain today are the only clothes in my family that don't have patches. If it wasn't for the nobles of the Cheng family who told me yesterday Come to see you, Lord Hou, I am not willing to wear it out!"

Seeing the talking craftsman wearing the white washed old clothes, Li Yu knew better, and cast the bait leisurely;

"Then you haven't thought about finding a regular job in which big family? Do it safely and securely for a lifetime? How about you don't have to worry about food and clothing anymore?"

Seeing that everyone else had stopped talking, Liu Da spoke with a bitter face;
"My Lord Marquis, you don't know the situation in the market. It is true that rich families have long-term jobs, but not just anyone can get them.

Not to mention that every major family has its own fixed servants and men and women, even if there is an errand that can be escaped, it is still dog meat being robbed everywhere. Idiots also know that hiding under a big tree is a good way to enjoy the cool?

But those of us who are wandering around are so poor that I can't describe it... There is a regular errand in the city that doesn't cost a couple of dollars, who can introduce it to us?

The villain also wants to find a long-term job with a rich family. It is best to sign a lifelong contract, which is the most beautiful, so that the family can be guaranteed a little wealth. cost?Isn't this fatal? "

"Yes, Lord Hou, Liu Da is right..."

"Oh, that's right, if the rest of us had those two tooth bills, we wouldn't be wandering around all day long. If we didn't finish our meal, the children and women would suffer..."

"Ugh……"

Cheng Chusi next to him kept silent and pretended not to care, but secretly observed Li Yu's every move, including the subtlety of every word he said, and Cheng Chusi carefully analyzed it in his heart!

This is what Aye told him every day, and he also said that Li Dalang was just farting, so he had to figure out why he was farting at this time?
Of course, I must listen to Aye's painstaking teachings. After all, the future of the entire Cheng family must be under his leadership and he must not be careless.

This meeting will see Li Dalang poking at the vital points of these craftsmen with a few words and sentences, and rewarding some money for a few good words without saying a word, the amount is not too much, and the eyes of these people are so irritating. It seems that Li Dalang's ability is indeed true There's something special about it...

Li Yu also saw that the fire was almost ready, leaned back lazily, and the middle-aged Li family members behind him carefully supported the head of his family to be stable and comfortable.

Li Yu let out a long sigh;

"Master Hou, I just can't see who is pitiful. At the beginning, I rescued the three mothers and daughters from the traffickers and went back. They said they washed the feet of Benhou, but they washed them once. Now the three of them are sitting in my place. And fat, this one who eats meat every meal is almost becoming a fat pig."

"That's that, who in Chang'an City doesn't know that Lord Hou is kind-hearted. I heard that the two rescued from the prison worked as servants of Lord Hou. Now they are shopkeepers who can do big business. Oh, it's really enviable." die……"

"That's right, Master Hou is such a good man that he can't see people being pitiful and suffering like this!"

Seeing that Li Yu was not looking this way, the six craftsmen winked and made small gestures to the talking Liu Da, meaning that you can play tricks, don't you?Just now I got everyone to reward me with five hundred dollars, so hurry up and say a few more obedient words, it's best to let everyone get a long-term job as Li's second wife, so that you don't have to wander around in the past. How beautiful it is!

Liu Da was also from the rivers and lakes, nodded lightly, slowly moved a few steps towards Li Yu and sat down, and spoke with a smiling face;
"Master Hou?"

Li Yu said without raising his head;
"Well! What's the matter?"

"Reporting to Lord Hou, the villain just wants to ask Lord Hou to ask me to come here, what is the errand arrangement, I hope I have a plan in mind!"

"Oh! Lord Hou, I suddenly want to do business with blank paper, but I am not familiar with it, and there are no skilled craftsmen to use it, so I asked my elder brother to arrange a few skilled people, isn't it? Aren't you here? ? I heard that you are all handed down from family, so it should work, right?"

"Don't worry, Lord Hou. It's hard to say anything else. The skill of making white paper is inherited from our ancestors. We guarantee to give you the satisfaction of buying and selling."

"Oh, that's good! I'm a person who doesn't bother to trade around, and I'm lazy, so you'd better be able and obedient, so I don't need to arrange another craftsman!"

As soon as Li Yu's words came out, the six people scrambled to show their abilities;

"Master Hou, the craftsmanship of the Wang family in Sichuan has been passed down for hundreds of years. If you don't believe me, go and inquire about it, it's all real kung fu!"

"Master Hou, the ones from the south are also solid craftsmen?"

Liu Da was winked desperately by several companions, and couldn't care about anything else, so he moved his butt a few times anxiously;
"Master Hou, everyone in the world knows that you are in business. It is first-rate money. Now you have to make blank paper. If you can't do it well, you can't do it. You have to do the best. Master Hou, you said what the villain said. right?"

"Yes! Mr. Liu, you like to listen to what you say. I think you are pleasing to the eye. Let's see what each family is capable of without talking about anything else."

Liu Da saw that Lord Hou didn't want to talk and started to arrange work, so he became anxious;
"Master Hou, the villain wants to delay your time for a cup of tea, do you think it's okay?"

"Let's talk, let's talk. It's okay to work after talking, just do a good job."

"Don't worry, Lord Hou, the six of us are familiar with each other, and we are not unfamiliar with each other. It's natural to cooperate. You don't have to worry about work. The villain wants to say that Master Hou, your business is also a long-term thing. I'll wait a few If someone takes on other jobs...wouldn't it delay your big business in the future? Master Hou, don't you think so?"

"Well, that makes sense. Liu Da, you have a lot of brains. Just say what you want to say. Listen, Lord Hou!"

Liu Da excitedly rubbed his hands;

"Hey, it's Lord Hou! The villain wants to say that if you work for a long time, Lord Hou, why don't you sign a long-term contract with the six of us, and I will stop taking other jobs and concentrate on serving our Li family's business Workshop, in this way our six families can count on us to rely on for a living, Master Hou, your kind-hearted reputation is well-known throughout Chang'an, I wonder if you can fulfill me and wait for a while?"

"This? It's okay, but the long-term workers signed by our Li family are all dedicated to work. You go here today and talk about something at home tomorrow. That's not okay. After all, I will give you hundreds of dollars every month. Well, it’s no good not to take Master Hou seriously all the time, even if you sign a long contract, you have to keep your ugly words in your head, and let everyone feel comfortable when you open up and say it clearly.”

One of the craftsmen couldn't help exclaiming;

"Hundreds of dollars? Pay it back every month?"

A craftsman whispered;
"Yeah, I also understand that what Hou Ye said just now is a few hundred dollars a month."

Li Yu sat up straight lazily;
"That's right! My Li family has no shortage of people to use. There are tens of thousands of people, that is, there are not many craftsmen who can make paper. Otherwise, how can I make such a difference? Besides, a craftsman is only four to five hundred yuan a month, Lord Hou I can still afford it!"

"My God! Four or five hundred a month!"

"God!"

Liu Da swallowed hard and spit a few mouthfuls, blushing and explaining;
"Reporting to Lord Hou, this is what the villain said. Lord Hou, you have signed us, so naturally no one will break the rules. If you don't believe that we can live in your village, you can send someone to watch over us. They absolutely don’t pick up jobs anywhere, and stay at Li’s all day long!”

"I think this method is okay. Anyway, I have too many new houses to live in. It's convenient for you to live in my place."

"That's right, what Master Hou said makes sense. Then I wonder if you agree to the signing of the long contract, Master Hou..."

"I agree, I agree, it's the same thing, I'm basking in the sun, don't talk, come here! Arrange someone to sign a long contract for them."

Xichun beside him obediently agreed;
"Your Majesty, I will make arrangements for this servant."

Li Yu still maintained the posture of basking in the sun and looked up at the sky;

"It's the first time for Li's second wife to sign a contract with an outsider, so let's start with five hundred dollars per month, and start with this amount if necessary in the future."

"promise."

Xichun squatted at Li Yu with a blessing, and then looked at a group of extremely excited craftsmen;

"Let's go, my lord is basking in the sun, don't disturb me by talking, hurry up and follow me to the front, and come back to work after signing."

"Okay! Get up now, get up!"

"Yes, yes, my wife."

Li Yu looked at the six happy craftsmen who left, and then at Cheng Chusi;

"Become a big brother, this is according to what you said, signed a long contract, hee hee!"

Cheng Chusi also had to stick out his thumb in admiration;
"Brother is amazing, he can come and go as he pleases, I admire him so much!"

"Hi! Where is this going, brother."

"However, although I signed a long-term contract with six familiar hands, I still need to say a few more words for my brother. The business of paper business is not as simple as you think, my dear brother. You should think carefully about it!"

Li Yu raised his body and explained with a smile;

"Brother, don't worry, little brother, the paper I make is not paper for writing. The paper I make is definitely something that everyone should use?"

Cheng Chusi frowned depressedly;

"Everyone uses it? Nine out of ten people in the world don't know characters. Brother, I really can't figure it out. Why does everyone use it?"

Li Yu covered his mouth happily;
"Brother, you are also very intelligent, why don't you guess it?"

"This...isn't it for wiping sweat?"

"I'm more than half right. Elder brother is indeed the most valued son of Uncle Cheng's family!"

"What? Is it really used to wipe sweat?"

Li Yu stretched out his hands and explained casually;

"Ah yes! It can also be used to wipe sweat, but the most important thing is to use it to wipe your butt to be more comfortable!"

Cheng Chusi opened his mouth wide and stared at his eyes this time;

"Huh? Wipe your butt? Brother, are you crazy? How can you use paper to wipe your butt? Do you want everyone in the world to wipe the dirty place with the most holy paper used for writing?"

Not to mention Cheng Chusi, all the members of the Li clan present this time were very puzzled, what kind of madness did the family live in?Just do it well when you do business with blank paper, why use it to wipe your ass?This is simply degrading!How can you wipe the dirtiest and most filthy things with writing things?The owner is really...
