"Such a dirty method, Seventh Brother, please don't stop me, I must stop him..."
"Brother Zhaode, please lower your voice." Li Shan frowned and looked at the furious Li Zhaode, "It's disturbing people's peace."
Li Kai coughed twice and gave his cousin a warning look. Don't you know why the four of us were not in the main hall but discussing things in the front yard?
It’s just that you’re still shouting so loudly because you’re afraid that Ms. Li, who is raising a baby in the inner room, will notice!
Li Kai glanced at Li Shan, who had a dull expression, and thought to himself that this man was as considerate as his hair and had a benevolent heart. Wang Renbiao was really lucky.
"This matter is a bit strange." Li Shan suddenly whispered: "It has been four months since Brother Xiaoqing moved to another hospital."
Indeed, Li Kai also cast a questioning look at Wang Renbiao. In the past four months, the Princess Mansion had ignored him, and Wang Renyou had only used some small tricks. But this time, there must be another reason for his ruthless attack.
Wang Renbiao snorted, "Half a month ago, I sent a letter to Suizhou, mentioning that my wife is pregnant with Liujia."
"But I didn't mention you moving to another hospital." Li Shan nodded.
Li Kai vaguely guessed that it was probably because Suizhou had leaked the news and Princess Tong'an knew about it, that Wang Renyou jumped out.
"That's why I said that day, regardless of making bricks or tiles, spreading branches and leaves is the most important thing." Li Zhaode gritted his teeth and cursed: "That guy Wang Renyou is so shameless!"
Li Kai did not say anything, but Wang Renbiao explained to Li Shan in a vague tone that if he had no heirs, even if it was not Wang Renyou, his son Siguo would probably inherit the family.
"It does hurt Brother Li."
Wang Renbiao felt a little guilty. Li Shan refused to cooperate and only sold the secret recipe that day, just because he was afraid that he would be involved between him and the Hedong Pei family. Unexpectedly, a few months later, Li Shan would be involved in the internal fighting among the Wang family's children. .
"Actually, this matter is quite simple." Li Shan said with a smile: "Brother Demou, brother Zhaode come from a noble family..."
"Yes, yes, I remember that Seventh Brother has a shop in the West Market, which was converted into a restaurant." Li Zhaode danced, "If Wang Renyou dares to cause trouble again, his face will be smashed!"
Li Kai smiled and handed over his hand, "Qiong Yao yarn, Qiong Yao silk and other items are very profitable. Thank you for my brother."
"Dongshan Temple sends food ingredients to the West Market every day. Zhujiagou can also provide two kitchen cooks. The rest will have to be entrusted to three people." Li Shan laughed and said: "I have the audacity to take 20% and leave the remaining 30%." The bit average is."
"How can this be done?" Li Zhaode shook his head and said: "Without Qiong Yao's reputation among the dozens of restaurants in the West City, they would probably be deserted, at least 30% of them."
"Twenty percent is enough." Li Shan winked at Li Kai.
Li Kai and Li Shan discussed it on the way here that Li Kai would leave his shop and then build a restaurant. It was just for Wang Renbiao... They knew it well and sent some money directly. I'm afraid the watch won't accept it.
But Wang Renbiao was not stupid, and he quickly noticed, "Brother Li, brother Demou each take 40%, and Zhaode takes 20%, which is just right."
After a moment of silence, Li Shan sighed, "Without Brother Xiaoqing, I am no more than a villager. How can I sit and drink tea with my brother from the Danyang House of the Li family in Longxi, let alone cooperate for profit? If Brother Xiaoqing refuses, how can I How can I be so shameless..."
"Brother Xiaoqing, do you still remember the first time you went to Zhujiagou?"
"Dig a canal from Dongshan to bring water into the village, dig a pool, and then introduce it into the river in the neighboring village. Remember, brother Xiaoqing did a little calculation, and it was at least a thousand guan of silver."
"But now I have nothing. I need money to either build a house or... Mr. Zhou, who is accompanying me today, needs ten guan per month."
"Ten guan of money?" Li Kai shook his head indifferently, "Although I have only met Mr. Zhou twice, although this man is uninhibited and drunk, he is indeed talented and learned. Ten guan of money is less."
Li Zhaode finally came to his senses, "My father promised to take the imperial examination and become an official in the future... Why don't you give it to me, brother Li, with a monthly salary of fifty guan!"
"Brother Zhaode..."
"Okay, don't call Brother Zhaode." Li Kai laughed and scolded: "Brother Li is seventeen, Zhaode is only sixteen!"
"What?!" Li Shan glared, causing Li Zhaode to shrink his neck.
Wang Renbiao didn't know what the three friends were laughing and scolding over there. His eyes turned slightly red. He suddenly stood up and saluted. He wanted to say something, but his lips trembled slightly and he couldn't speak.
"Brother Xiaoqing attaches great importance to love and righteousness." Li Kai stood up and hugged Wang Renbiao, "My brother almost died when he was imprisoned. If it hadn't been for brother Xiaoqing, he would have been dead by now."
Li Zhaode pushed Wang Renbiao down and sat down, and said with a smile: "Seventh brother likes to chatter when he is old."
Looking at Li Shan who only smiled and did not ask questions, Li Kai briefly explained a few words. During the Daye Year, Li Jing, the Prime Minister of Mayi County, secretly reported Li Yuan to rebel. Li Yuan launched an army to invade Chang'an and captured Li Jing, intending to kill him.
Due to the tragic death of his youngest son Li Zhiyun, Li Yuan also imprisoned Li Jing's nephews Li Kai, Li Zhaode and others who were captured at the same time.
Previously, when the Sui army was in the city, Li Kai took the risk to shelter Wang Renbiao, Li Yuan's nephew. Li Kai was thrown into prison, and Wang Renbiao asked Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin again and again.
In the end, Li Shimin took a fancy to the reputation of the Li family in Longxi and persuaded Li Yuan, Li Jing, Li Kai, Li Zhaode and other Danyang brothers to escape from danger.
Li Shan sighed: "It's no wonder that such a righteous act is..."
With such friendship, such kindness to Danyangfang of Li Jing and Li Keshi's lineage, although without Wang Renbiao, Li Yuan may not have killed Li Jing and other direct descendants of the Li family in Longxi, but Danyangfang... at least Li Kai
This generation must be grateful to Wang Renbiao.
Li Shan had found it strange before that Li Kai and Li Zhaode were either behind the Qin Prince's Palace or the Qi Prince's Palace, but they were willing to help Wang Renbiao on the premise that Princess Tong'an and the concubine were at odds with each other... You must know that even Li Shimin and Li Yuanji were not
will do so.
"When I was young, I listened to people reciting poems in Lingnan. I wrote down two lines of them and gave them to Brother Xiaoqing today."
"When there is no storm or heavy rain, who can survive until the clouds open and the moon shines brightly?"
Li Zhaode nodded vigorously, "If things don't work out in two years, Shibo will step down as the director of Suizhou and will be able to return to Beijing."
After a while, the three of them all stood up to leave. Li Shan casually mentioned that he wondered if it would be possible to build a vegetarian restaurant, a restaurant similar to a temple. It would not use meat and fish, but would only serve vegetarian dishes and Qiong Yao products. Nowadays, the upper class eat vegetarian food.
Quite a few.
Li Zhaode was quite interested, "East Market and West Market?"
"Dongshi." Li Shan said casually: "It happens to be right next to Pingkangfang..."
"Ahem."
"Seventh Brother...Brother Li, let's wait until Seventh Brother is gone."
"Zhaode is sixteen years old. I'm afraid he hasn't been to Pingkangfang yet?" Li Shan smiled and said, "In a few days, brother..."
Li Kai coughed a few more times and said helplessly: "These days, I have never seen Brother Li act like this."
Zhou Zhao, who was walking behind with a bottle of wine in his hand, interrupted: "Living in the countryside, he is also charming and charming. There are many beauties hidden in the house, and he is full of beauties..."
"By the way, today I have to ask Brother Demou about Zhaode." Li Shan interrupted quickly.
The matter of the Chang'an Order has been settled, and the registration cannot be delayed any longer.
Li Kai waved his hand and said: "Brother, I must choose a fine bronze mirror and have it delivered to Zhujiagou tomorrow."
Looking at Li Shan who was speechless for a moment, Zhou Zhao asked with a strange expression: "Do you know what he is asking for the bronze mirror for?"
