I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 1111 Brother-in-law, they bully me
Such a dark-skinned, skinny old man, how did he persevere.

A catty of vegetables costs two cents, and once they are all added up, it is only a hundred and ten cents.

For a hundred and ten Wen, this vegetable farmer had to work with his family from morning to night for several months before he could grow vegetables.

He also needs to set off before dawn, and carry a load of tens of kilograms alone, and walk for more than ten miles before arriving at Nanjing City.

He wanted to sell for a penny more and make more income, but was ruthlessly rejected.

Such a day, they live a lifetime.

And if his descendants didn't have great fortune, it is estimated that their ending would be similar to his.

Busy all day long, just to support the family, raise the next generation, and then continue the path that the ancestors have walked for generations.

There is no way out, no end, and no bright future. This is what countless people like vegetable farmers are experiencing.

And what are the rich and nobles doing? They spend a lot of money just to enjoy a lunch.

They talked loudly, exchanged cups, enjoyed the shade of their ancestors, and wantonly squandered money that others may not be able to earn in a lifetime or a few lifetimes.

They don't worry about the future, they don't care about whether it will be sunny or rainy tomorrow, they just enjoy it.

The same people, different destinies, solidified classes, no upward momentum, and a huge inclination of social resources.

This kind of world is not what Li Tian wants to see, he came here to completely break this situation.

He wants to give all ordinary people the chance to change their destiny through their own efforts.

His coming is not just for a certain person, nor for a few hundred nobles, but for the millions of ordinary people living here.

"I will definitely go down this road, no matter who is blocking the way!"

In just an instant, just a few words, Li Tian readjusted his beliefs, and his whole person became sharp again.

Wang Fu looked at Li Tian curiously, and suddenly felt that Li Tian's whole temperament had suddenly changed, as if he had become firmer and calmer than before.

He didn't know what kind of change happened in Li Tian's heart in this short moment. He just knew that from today onwards, the good days of those honorable gentlemen in the city might be coming to an end.

He silently mourned for those people, but with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, he continued to open the way ahead.

……

The sun was gradually rising, and before reaching the highest point, Li Tian and others arrived at the destination of this trip, Four Seasons Restaurant.

At this time, in front of the restaurant, there was a guy who was obviously fat and was waiting anxiously.

"Master, here they come, here they come."

The carriage stopped slowly, and that fat guy was about to kneel down when he saw the person in the carriage.

Wang Fu stepped forward hurriedly, supported him, and said in a low voice,

"Uncle Guo, be careful. Your Majesty is visiting in private this time, so you can't reveal it..."

The person who came here was Zhang Yongri, who had come here a few months in advance, Li Tian's cheap brother-in-law, and naturally he was Uncle Guo.

Ever since Zhang Yongri took over the soap workshop, he has transformed from a playboy to the God of Wealth who is warmly welcomed wherever he goes.

No matter who it is, they have to come forward to curry favor.

And he never refuses anyone, he dares to participate in anyone's invitation.

The consequence of this is that in just a few months, he has gained a full circle of fat. If this trend continues, it is estimated that within two years, he will be even fatter than Wang Fu.

Of course, this guy is not an idiot, he will do everything he can to take advantage of, and let him suffer, that is absolutely impossible.

But he had been in Nanjing for almost two months, but this time he ran into a hard problem, which made his communication skills that were always in the capital completely useless.

After listening to Wang Fu's words, he hurriedly stood up, ran to Li Tian, ​​and cried out with snot and tears,
"Brother-in-law, you are here. If you don't come again, I don't know if I can persist."

Li Tian chuckled, this guy, there are not many people who can make him suffer, the appearance in front of him, if he didn't really encounter difficulties, he wouldn't cry so sadly.

He patted him on the shoulder casually and said,
"Okay, what does the crying on the street look like, let's go in and talk if you have anything to say!"

I don't know if the expression just now was faked, Zhang Yongri immediately replied and led Li Tian in front.

This Four Seasons Restaurant was originally a restaurant that was almost out of business.

Zhang Yongri's development in the soap workshop was hindered, and he was unwilling to give up such a big market in Nanjing, so he changed his mind and spent some money to sell the Four Seasons Restaurant.

Not to mention anything else, it was more or less a temporary place for them to stay here.

This restaurant has a total of three floors, which is similar to the general restaurant layout.

However, after Zhang Yongri's modification, the entire third floor was modified by him into a temporary residence, which is no longer open to the public.

Li Tian couldn't be exposed in the early stage, and if he wanted to find a safe and reliable place to stay temporarily, his restaurant became the best choice.

At this time, there were quite a few guests on the first and second floors who were drinking and eating, and it seemed very lively. The stairs beside the crowd went upstairs, but no one thought about it.

When we reached the third floor, as soon as we entered the room, before Li Tian could sit still, Zhang Yongri pounced on him, grabbed his thigh and cried,

"Brother-in-law, you have to make the decision for me. Those stinky and shameless guys in Nanjing are really bullying people too much. They...they even ganged up to bully me..."

Li Tian asked amusedly,
"Tell me about how they bullied you. Who is so bold that they don't even give you the face of your country's uncle."

Zhang Yongri said viciously,
"Who else is there, it's not those old guys who started a family with the great grandfather.

Who would have thought that they would team up to bully me..."

"At first, when they heard that I was going to set up a soap workshop here, they were all very enthusiastic. They asked for land and people, and even supplied me with the materials for the workshop at the lowest price! "

Speaking of this, he paused for a while, Li Tian probably guessed what was going on just after hearing this.

Sure enough, Zhang Yongri immediately continued,

"Who knew that they had ulterior motives, when the workshop was built and the personnel were almost trained, they would suddenly come to the door one by one, saying that they wanted a piece of the pie.

Then of course I disagree.

But these guys actually threatened me with land, materials and workers.

Said that if I don't give them a share, I won't be able to start working in the future. "
