I will not be king in the Spring and Autumn Period

Chapter 118
Today's Li Ran knows Jixian very well.

He showed his hand today, on the surface it seems that he has high hopes for Li Ran, but in reality?
In front of Ji Wang and Ji Xun, how dare he, Li Ran, directly agree?
Is this legal?incompatible.

Does this make sense?incompatible.

To put it bluntly, this is just another test for Jixian, to test whether Li Ran really has no second thoughts about Jishi.

Li Ran was well aware of this, so how could he let Jixian really trick him into it?Therefore, I immediately rejected it with stern words.The words are also watertight.

Hearing what Li Ran said, Ji Xian was finally relieved, and a hint of relief gradually appeared on his face.

"Hehe, as the saying goes, 'A family of good deeds, there must be Yuqing'. It seems that my sacrifice is really a blessing."

As for Ji Wang who had been standing aside all the time, the two of Ji Xun couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief when they saw this.But they don't know whether the two of them are relieved for Li Ran, or for themselves.

As for the festival music, she always seemed a little surprised.

Because she didn't understand what was the purpose of her father and the two elder brothers coming here today?
However, seeing that the family was happy again, they immediately suppressed the confusion in their hearts.

When the two returned to the other courtyard, Li Ran wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, and couldn't help saying: "Thanks to being smart, otherwise I would really be led into a ditch by this old guy today."

Seeing that his expression was different, Ji Le immediately asked:
"Husband, why do you seem so nervous?"

Hearing this, Li Ran knew that it was not appropriate to talk too much with Ji Le, so he just casually said a few words.

After all, they are father and daughter, so it's better not to say too much about some things, so as not to create a rift between the two of them.

……

But Jixian, after receiving Li Ran's clear statement, immediately appointed Li Ran as Jishi's housekeeper at the clan meeting, taking over the property left by Shu Niu, as well as Jishi's affairs inside and outside Zhengyi City.

Obviously, there must be Zichan secretly hinting behind this.And the temptation before offering sacrifices was more out of protecting the interests of his own family.

Now it is equivalent to handing over all Jishi's family property to Li Ran. Although it only accounts for half of it, it is really considerable.

Especially Li Ran now holds several positions. He is a pedestrian of Zheng Guo, and now he is the head of Jishi.It is obvious that his name, who has been mixed up in the political and business circles, is now able to speak at both ends.

It's just that the commercial activities of the Ji family inside and outside Zhengyi City are quite cumbersome, with many names.If you rush in with all your brains, I'm afraid that you will also be out of skills.

However, fortunately, Ji Le is still more familiar with his own industry after all, and is more concerned about it.And these days, Li Ran's servant, Xiaoyi, has been helping Li Ran with the various business transactions entrusted to him by the priest, so it is quite handy to take over the big business now.

Therefore, with Ji Le and Xiao Yi taking care of the internal affairs together, Li Ran can naturally put his time and energy elsewhere.

After Li Ran and the others tidied up the big stall left by Shu Niu, they arranged for the people in charge from all walks of life, and it was already April.

On this day, Li Ran was sipping tea alone in the mansion, and Sun Wu entered the mansion from the outside with a trace of joy on his face.

"How? Everything is done?"

Li Ran asked.

"Mr. Hui, everything is ready."

"It's just that the number of people is a bit shabby."

It turned out that since the last Zheng Yi poisoning incident, Li Ran ordered Sun Wu to secretly recruit warriors to build his own guard force.

Now, as the scale of the Jishi industry he took over is getting bigger and bigger, the money is naturally getting thicker and thicker. Today, the guard force has a scale of nearly a thousand people.

If this is placed in an ordinary wealthy family, there are nearly a thousand warrior guards, and if you look at all the capitals, it can already be regarded as "huge".

But in Sun Wu's eyes, this kind of person is really not enough.

After all, he is a general who has commanded the armies of the two countries at any rate, just like Han Xin ordered troops, the more the better.

"These people will be the capital for us to live and work in the future. Although the number may be smaller, they must be fine!"

"Since the recruitment has been completed, I will leave the training to you in the future."

"Remember, you must be cautious about this matter. The fewer people who know about it, the better. If you are too ostentatious, you may be caught."

After all, this is the first armed force exclusively for Li Ran. In this dark and turbulent Zhengyi, he must be cautious.

Sun Wu has a lot of experience in this way, so he immediately took the order.

And Li Ran couldn't help stretching, got up and entered the house:
"Le'er, nothing happened recently, why don't we go out of the city and have some fun?"

Ji Le was busy in the house at this time, but said angrily:

"Husband is really a palace official now. He only cares about drinking tea in the courtyard, but he doesn't see that Le'er is still busy?"

Hearing this, Li Ran only smiled, stepped forward and hugged Ji Le's neck, and whispered:
"That's right, who told me that my husband married the most virtuous wife in the world? It's even lucky to be a husband, even lucky!"

Hearing what Li Ran said, Ji Le lost his temper in an instant, and said to Li Ran as if to appease a child:
"Okay, okay, since my husband intends to go outside to relax, how dare Le'er not follow?"

So, the two made some preparations, called their attendants, and went to the suburbs together.

……

In late spring, the outside of the city is filled with gorgeous colors, picturesque flowers, and unreal landscapes.Wouldn't it be a great joy in life to be able to be in such a world?

"Go to the manor ahead and rest for a while."

After playing around for a while, Ji Le brought Li Ran to Ji Shi's manor outside Zhengyi City.

As soon as Li Ran entered it, he found that there was a large piece of green grass behind the manor, and the south of the green grass was the official road leading directly to the state of Chu. In addition, it was only half a day away from Zhengyi, so the geographical location was very good. generous.

It can also be seen from this that Jishi's wealth is so great that he was able to build such a huge manor in such a place.

"Huh? Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could build a golf course for such a large piece of green grass?"

When Li Ran saw this lush grassland, he became interested for a while.

"Golf? What's that?"

Ji Le raised her small head and asked with a puzzled expression.

"Tomorrow you will know."

Unexpectedly, Li Ran stretched out his hand to scratch the tip of her nose, and immediately gave her a mysterious smile.

Just do it, relying on the memory in his mind, he sent someone to level the large grassland around.A few corners were quickly selected, which can be used as the location of the green after leveling.Then he asked the servant to cut black bamboo from the hillside not far away, and weaving it with his skillful hands, several large fences appeared around the green grass.

Then, he used thicker poplar wood to make the shape of a club, and planned several more tortuous routes to divide the entire green grassland into several pieces.

After being so busy for two or three days, a golf course was actually completed in the Spring and Autumn Period!

But just when he was about to show off his past skills, he realized that he had neglected the most crucial thing.

We have the golf course, the clubs, and the hole, but what about the ball?
So, he hurriedly searched for various materials. The cloth bag was too light, the copper one was too heavy, and the stones were too irregular and would shatter when knocked.

It wasn't until the end that he remembered that golf balls are made of rubber... But looking at the entire land of China, where did rubber trees come from?
"I... this is really a failure!"
