Northern Dynasties

Chapter 105
"This mouthful of soft rice is a bit prickly!"

Li Tai ran to the hillside in a hurry, and seeing the Dugu Xin family slaves in the valley still wandering around in the villa, searching for their location, he couldn't help but sighed.

Thinking of the way Dugu Miaoyin tricked himself into approaching with soft words and then gnashed his teeth to kill him just now, he couldn't help feeling that these Xianbei women's personalities were really hot.

Seeing that the search area below was gradually expanding, he turned around and walked around the hillside from the orchard. He didn't plan to come to this villa in the valley in the near future, and he just mourned for a moment in his heart for that boy Ji Feng.

After returning to the manor, he still felt a little unsafe. Before the little lady realized that he had run back, he simply changed into his luggage and planned to go out to avoid the limelight.

Whether to use BUFF or not, it was just a gimmick in my mind before this, but seeing this little lady make him a little restless on the first day of entering the village, I feel a little unbearable, the key is my own fault .

You still have to be realistic in life, let's realize the gifts that Dugu Xin gave him before.It's just that although those gifts are valuable, they are not in great demand, and it is not easy to realize them in the market.

But soon he thought of a good market, and that was the club house run by He Ba and Jingwei brothers in Lishan.

Although he didn't have time to watch it recently, when he met Yu Wenhu in Taifu a few days ago, the guy said with a happy face that the business was good, and he had received the first dividend not long ago.

Although Li Tai didn't ask about the details of their cooperation, but seeing Yu Wenhu's expression, he knew that the benefits must not be bad.

Huazhou is the headquarters of Yuwen Taiba Mansion, and Chang'an is the center of the Western Wei court.

Most of the imperial courtiers who moved westward with Emperor Xiaowu settled in Chang'an. They were not powerful men from Beizhen who had risen for a short time, but rich and powerful families who were used to eating a lot in Luoyang in the early years. Naturally, they had high requirements for life enjoyment.

Li Tai's family of high-end goods should not worry about sales if they are put on consignment in that club.Turning these gift goods into a windfall, Li Tai planned to formally set up a metal casting workshop and set up his own small military factory.

There was a group of forging craftsmen in He Basheng's trilogy, and recently Li Tai also got in touch with those big local tyrants in Hedong.

For example, his colleagues Pei Han and Xue Shen in Mocao, Taiwan, seem polite and harmless to humans and animals, but their respective clans are powerful, and they are local tyrants that even Gao Huan feels headaches.

The local forces in the Hedong area can be traced back to the end of the Three Kingdoms period. After the fall of the Shu Han, a large number of Shu people were relocated to Hedong.The Xue family of Hedong is one of the representatives, so it is called Shu Xue.

During the period of Wuhu chaos in China, the Xue clan in Hedong, who settled in Fenyin, gathered together to protect themselves. After the Xiongnu Han Zhao, Jie Hu Shi Zhao, they were rebellious for decades, and the later Zhao tyrant Shi Hu led tens of thousands of troops to attack him, but they could not make them its yielding.

The reason why Hedong Haoqiang can be so stubborn and powerful is that he has the advantage of salt and iron.In particular, Yanchi in Hedong is a good business with huge profits at present.In order to protect this important surface resource, all ethnic groups in Hedong must maintain a considerable number of private armed forces.

Xue Shen's elder brother, Xue Shan, previously served as the Minister of Agriculture, managing military settlements and forging military affairs, which is due to the tradition and accumulation of his family for many years.

Li Tai's friendship with these Hedong families is not very deep, but he can finally talk to them. Before his own military industry can't form a large-scale production capacity, buying a batch of weapons and ordnance from them is also an option.

With this in mind, he asked his family to pack up some of the gifts and divide them into two parts, one for Gao Zhongmi to maintain as a daily gift, and the other for consignment in Lishan as a sample.

He and his entourage had just left the manor on horseback when several phoenixes with bruised faces and a discomfited appearance were escorted from the valley by several robust servants from the Dugu family, looking at Li Zhusheng who was about to leave, crying Said: "Zhusheng is in charge, what about me, my elder brother? He can't, can't..."

On Gao Zhongmi's mansion in Huazhou City, there was the sound of singing and music from the middle hall. Gao Zhongmi's co-chair, Shi Nianhua, and several guests were enjoying the singing and dancing of the actors in a leisurely manner.

When Li Tai strode up the hall, Gao Zhongmi was a little embarrassed when he saw him. He quickly stood up from the table, rubbed his hands and said with a dry smile, "A Pan, why do you have time to go home today? Oh, this is, step down, you all step back Down."

"No need, if I disturb Uncle and everyone else, I will be fined a drink before entering the table."

Li Tai quickly waved his hand and said hello to Nian Hua and the others, and sat down at the table to quench his thirst with a glass of fruit wine.

Even though he said so, Gao Zhongmi was still a bit rigid and couldn't let it go, it was probably the practice of being caught as disrespectful by being close to the younger generation, always a little embarrassing.

Li Tai thinks it's okay to do some entertainment, even if he has a blood feud, but he just doesn't have the ability to retaliate, so he can't torture himself every day.

It will probably be difficult for Gao Zhongmi to avenge himself in this life. It is better to relax and enjoy life. If you live long enough, you can see his eldest nephew's family hurt each other, and you will be happy.

Even if the wife is still alive, Gao Huan's family's inexplicable tutor is cruel when you think about it. It's better to live a little drunk and don't let yourself be too sober.

During the meeting, Li Tai asked Nian Hua again if he knew about the clubhouse that He Ba's brothers run in Lishan.

"Of course I know that. That villa is famous all over the capital now! Most of the children I know are regular visitors there, and they linger all day long. I also visited once with my friends, and it is indeed a well-deserved reputation. !"

Nianhua was not an ordinary boy from Beizhen who grew up in adversity. He was a little bit like Luo Xia. There is such a place full of elegance and interest. It’s just, it’s just that I don’t have a lot of pockets, so I can’t bear to visit for a long time!”

Hearing this, Li Tai laughed again, Nianhua was aloof among all the children of Beizhen, and without Lao Tzu's supervision every day, his family background was quite solid, so he felt that the consumption of this club was a bit unbearable.

It can be seen that the Heba brothers were very ruthless when they slaughtered these fat sheep. Of course, apart from their own family background, it was also because of the support of Yu Wenhu behind them, so they were so confident.

"I'm currently in free time, and I plan to visit this famous place. Would Chang Shi be a guide?"

He smiled again and said, Nian Hua has a wide range of contacts, and he can talk to the upstarts in Beizhen and the old money from Luoxia. If there is a chance, he also wants to draw Nian Hua into his career network.

Although he doesn't plan to get involved in the Lishan clubhouse, he also has some business ideas for other similar businesses, such as some high-end handmade goods, to save money for his Lu Daye.

Nian Hua was just an idler, after hearing the words, he agreed with a smile, and agreed to go to Mount Li together tomorrow morning.

Early the next morning, Li Tai was still waving a long spear in the backyard to exercise his arm strength, when the door servant came to tell Yu Wenhu that he had come to the door.He stopped training, went back to his room to wash up, and then went to the middle hall to meet the guests.

"Brother Sabao, Brother Poluo, you two came so early, you don't understand the master's hobby of lying idle in midsummer!"

Looking at Yuwenhu and Yuchigang who had already sat down in the hall, Li Tai made a complaint with a smile.

"There are so many beautiful sights in the world, no matter how you spend your time, it's better than sleeping in bed! We're not being evil guests, we're teaching you not to waste your time!"

Yu Chigang was not too big among the warriors in Beizhen, he was a little shorter than Li Tai, but his arms were thick as if they were equipped with mechanical arms. Hearing what Li Tai said, he wanted to step forward and slap him.

Seeing this, Li Tai quickly jumped away, not daring to be photographed by this bear, and motioned for the two to sit down, and said: "The journey is long, let's have a light meal here first, and when Nian Changshi arrives, we will set off. Listening to Brother Sabao's boastful description, I am also really curious about the style of this industry."

Mentioning this, Yu Wenhu was so happy from ear to ear, pointed to Li Tai and sighed: "Boshan, you are so ingenious. If I hadn't been inspired by you, I would never have imagined that where is the warm soup flowing in Lishan Mountain, it is clearly a golden spring." ! I enjoy a lot of leisurely expenses in this household, and I have benefited a lot from this!"

While speaking, he pulled out a saber with a sheath from behind his waist. The handle of the goose-beaked sword was shining golden, and the scabbard was dotted with bright pearls and jades, so it was obvious at a glance that it was not a vulgar product.When the blade was drawn out, it was even more glamorous and intimidating like an autumn rainbow.

"Give a treasured sword to a good friend, Boshan, don't refuse, or I'll be rude!"

While speaking, Yu Wenhu raised his hand and threw the saber into Li Tai's arms.

Yu Chigang looked enviously at the side, pointed at the knife and said: "Brother Sa Bao really cares about Li Lang, and I have been worrying about how to repay you for the past few days. I just told him that the royal family of Shangdang has Gaozu Xiaowen." The golden knife bestowed by the emperor was passed down from generation to generation, so he went to the household to buy it, and it took two thousand pieces of silk to get it!"

When Li Tai heard this, he was flattered for a while.In his impression, Yu Wenhu was not a generous person, and he used to get rid of himself with a standard bow, but he didn't expect that he was willing to spend two thousand bolts of silk to buy a knife as a gift this time, which was really hemorrhaging.

He held the saber respectfully in both hands, lowered his head and looked around himself, with a helpless smile on his face: "Who doesn't like famous swords and treasures? But such a precious gift, how can I be willing to wear it and want to show it off in front of others, brother Sabao?" But it gave me a lot of trouble to sleep and eat!"

"Haha, that's your business, whether you keep it for collection or use it for leisure, just don't bother me!"

When Yu Wenhu heard what he said, he clapped his hands and laughed, he really liked seeing Li Tai bewildered by this heavy gift.

At this moment, Nian Hua also came in from outside the hall, and without waiting to greet a few people, Li Tai jumped up from the table, still clasped his hands together, and walked towards Nian Hua impatiently: "Nian Changshi, don't worry about it." Blinking eyes, I have a famous treasure to wash your eyes! Do you know this treasure? Don't, don't touch it with your hands!"

Seeing Li Tai eager to show off his treasures in front of others, Yu Wenhu smiled even wider.
