"Master Li, please give me an immediate reply as to how to decide. My master doesn't have much patience." Meng Ziyi said coldly.
Li Hui breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Mr. Meng, please tell your master that the transfer of 100 million yuan will not be worth a penny less. The Yu family is a high-ranking family and should not take advantage of others. I make and sell soap and do things in a good manner.
, there is nothing wrong with it at all.”
Meng Ziyi's face was ashen and he shouted coldly: "It seems that you are ignorant of current affairs. Don't think that you have the confidence to have the Xie family as your backer. The Xie family has a close relationship with my master's family. Do you think that the Xie family will stand up for you?"
, you are totally wrong. Let me give you three days to think about it. Think about it carefully."
Li Hui laughed and said: "No need, I have already given you the answer. If you want the technology to make soap, get 100 million yuan, fair trade, no bullying. If you want to take advantage of me, take the name of a wealthy family."
Come and scare me, shamelessly take advantage of others, don’t even think about it.”
Meng Ziyi slapped the table, sneered and said: "Okay, you have the guts, just wait."
After this unhappy transaction, Li Hui realized that he didn't have much time to make money from soap. He didn't know what kind of actions the other party would make. Maybe everything was just a threat. But Li Huijue
I will not expect anything from the bottom line of the Jin family.
After experiencing so much, Li Hui had some fundamental understanding of what the aristocratic families of the Jin Dynasty did. They would do anything for their own benefit. They would confuse right and wrong, and ignore the life and death of others.
profit, and may even engage in criminal acts of murder and arson.
They are not as rich and distinguished as they appear on the outside. In fact, they are vengeful and vicious-hearted. They will never allow others to touch Nilin, otherwise they will be severely persecuted and suppressed.
Although not everyone is like this, the Gu Jiahuan family that Li Hui came into contact with all showed this trait. Therefore, Li Hui is not extreme, but can only say that these wealthy families have disappointed him.
Li Hui was also considering whether to tell Xie Xuan about the matter, but on second thought, doing so was not a good choice. As Meng Ziyi said, the Xie family may not stand up for themselves, or they will definitely not offend themselves.
The interests between the Yu family and the big families are close, and it is impossible to offend each other for a little person like yourself. From the overall situation, it is actually a critical moment for Wang Xieyu and other wealthy families to join forces to fight against the Huan family. The relationship between them
We are closer than ever. At this time, there is no reason for the relationship to break.
So it's okay if I don't say it, but it will be embarrassing if I do.
Xie Xuan might help him because of his personal relationship, but in fact it was something that made things difficult for him. Li Hui believed in Xie Xuan's character and friendship with him. But he was a descendant of the Xie family, and what he did made him sandwiched between Xie Xuan and Xie Xuan.
Li Hui is in a dilemma between himself and himself. Li Hui is a person who does not want to make things difficult for others, so he will not do this.
But the danger is there. Li Hui can only take precautions and be prepared to give up the soap making business. Li Hui was actually mentally prepared for this. From the beginning, Li Hui was ready to leak the secret.
After that, the psychological expectation of giving up on this matter after losing the monopoly.
Li Hui just hopes to seize the time to make more money. If the other party really makes any moves, then he would rather give up the soap making business than let the other party take advantage of it. Li Hui has already considered the final countermeasures of breaking up and breaking up.

…
One morning in mid-May, a gorgeous carriage and horses, escorted by several knights, arrived outside the desolate soap making workshop on the outskirts of Dongchanggan. Two people got off the carriage, wearing one purple and one green tunics.
Beautiful woman in skirt.
Looking at the steamy and smoky scene in the workshop yard, and listening to the noisy sounds and loud shouts inside, the two women looked at each other and walked towards the door of the workshop.
There was a spring rain last night. The ground was wet, and the leaves of the weeds were covered with water droplets. The ground was puddled with rainwater. As a large amount of materials arrived at the workshop, there was even a small puddle in front of the door caused by the ruts.
After walking a few steps, the shoes of the woman in the green dress got wet, and the corners of her skirt were stained with mud. She stood in the mud and complained softly.
"Why did this person choose a place like this to do his work? He asked people to find it for a long time without asking, and the road was not repaired, so he couldn't get in at all. It's true."
The woman in the purple skirt smiled and said: "Tongyun, why don't you go in, and I'll go. We came here on our own initiative, and he didn't invite us, right? There's nothing to complain about."
These two women were Xie Daoyun and Zhang Tongyun. Xie Daoyun had something to discuss with Li Hui today, so he rushed to the workshop in the wilderness by car. Zhang Tongyun had nothing to do and wanted to follow him to see what the soap was like.
How is it made?
Several followers picked up a few big stones and paved the way to the courtyard gate of the workshop. Then the two women jumped to the courtyard gate with their skirts in hand.
Various sounds came from the yard, including the crackling of burning firewood, the gurgling of liquid boiling, and the shouts of people exerting their strength. Standing at the door, I could already smell some strange and pungent smell coming from the door.
"Dachun Da Zhuang, be careful. Prepare to pour the oil, stir slowly and evenly, and stir continuously. Pay attention to safety and don't get burned. It's the last pot of the day. Everyone, please add oil. This batch is completed, and you can rest for half a day.
"A hoarse voice came from the yard.
"Don't worry, Xiao Lang, come on, let's start." Someone responded loudly.
Xie Daoyun reached out and pushed, and the courtyard door was pushed open. He saw white steam steaming in the open courtyard in front. Hot steam was rising from the ground on one side, and several large earthen stoves were lined up in the open space on the right, with steaming flames.
.There are dozens of large water tanks lined up at the base of the wall on the far right.
A large group of people were hidden in the white steam, and they were busy and busy.
Xie Daoyun and Zhang Tongyun walked in, and the people working inside didn't even notice them. They walked to a distance of more than 20 steps and stood under a small tree. A follower was about to step forward to report, but Xie Daoyun waved his hand to stop them.
The vegetable oil was injected into the lye and began to fully react, precipitating soap sludge. Li Hui rolled up his sleeves, his hair was messily tied up, and he wore a pair of straw sandals on his feet. His trousers were rolled up, and the mud was stained on his calves.
At this moment, he was concentrating on his work. He used a huge colander to scoop out the soap mud from the steaming urn, and placed it on a colander on a vat behind him to drain the liquid. At the same time, three pots were filled with oil for saponification, so Li Hui kept busy.
, busy shuttling through the white steam, completely unaware of other people outside.
"He is really suffering. After all, he is a dignified sixth-grade official, but he is so unkempt. What does he wear like that?" Zhang Tongyun muttered softly.
Xie Daoyun said softly: "It's not like you don't know his origin. People who come from poor families can naturally endure hardship."
Zhang Tongyun said: "That's right. How did he know how to make soap? This man is really strange. He tinkers with weird things all day long. When I was in Wujun, I heard Qing Ning talk about him.
I just think this person is weird."
Xie Daoyun smiled and said, "What weird things did he do in Wu County?"
Zhang Tongyun said: "It seems that it was the year before last, when there was a severe drought in Wu County. The crops in Gu's East Lake farm were so dry that they were smoking. He ran to recommend himself, saying that he could divert water from the bottom of the lake to rescue emergencies. No one believed that he could succeed, but he
I just used moso bamboo to divert the water out, which saved the urgent need. I happened to be in Wu County at the time."
Xie Daoyun smiled and said: "Is that difficult?"
Zhang Tongyun gestured with her slender hands and said: "Sister, I don't know that the water at the bottom of the lake cannot be drained out unless a channel is dug. The dam is like a hill, but he made the water flow up the dam and then down again. My sister has seen water flowing to higher places.
Really? The embankment is very high."
Xie Daoyun was stunned. She had never seen water flowing to high places. She squinted her eyes and looked at the busy and sweaty figure in the smoke, and she was silent.
"Qing Ning also told me that he also told the Gu family that it will rain soon, so the limited water should be used to water all the seedlings to save the seedlings and wait for the rain to save the crops in the entire field. The Gu family
The man did this, but it didn't rain for many days. The Gu family said that he had harmed the Gu family, and almost threw him into a water prison to be disposed of. But the strange thing was that as soon as he was about to be disposed of, it rained heavily. The drought
It was relieved. Do you think it's strange or not? When Qing Ning told me, I didn't believe it. How could it be such a coincidence? Is he the Dragon King? I think he looks like a monster." Zhang Tongyun said.
Xie Daoyun was even more surprised. Although this matter did not sound true, since Zhang Tongyun said it, it should be true. There is no need for Zhang Tongyun to tell such lies. He would make the water flow to higher places, and he would
It's predicted to rain, but now you're making soap. Could it be that he's really a monster?
However, Xie Daoyun caught another important point. It turns out that Li Hui did a lot for the Gu family, but for some reason he left the Gu family in the end. The Gu family is also ruthless. Could it be that he can decide whether it will rain or not?
?There must be something hidden here.
Looking at Li Hui's busy figure, Xie Daoyun thought: Although this young man from the Li family is young, he has a lot of experience. I wonder how many other secrets he hides.
While he was thinking about it, Li Hui suddenly turned his head and looked in the direction of Xie Daoyun and Zhang Tongyun. Xie Daoyun knew that he had found himself and Zhang Tongyun. Sure enough, Li Hui handed the wooden spoon to the person next to him and hurried towards
Two people came.
Xie Daoyun subconsciously tidied up her skirt, and Zhang Tongyun on the side also hid her dirty shoes under her skirt.
"Hey, Miss Xie, Miss Zhang, how come you two are here?" Li Hui cupped his hands and laughed loudly.
"What? Can't you come?" Zhang Tongyun said loudly.
Li Hui glanced at Zhang Tong Yunmei's breathtaking face and said with a smile: "It's not that you can't come. What I mean is that this kind of place is not the place you should come. The smell is terrible, and the road is muddy and difficult to travel."
Zhang Tongyun pouted and said, "That's true. The road to your door is so difficult that our clothes and shoes are all dirty."
Li Hui approached, smiled and cupped his hands and said: "I'm sorry. So, I should let you know. If I know that Miss Zhang is coming, I can order someone to repair the road, lay out a red carpet or something, and beat the gong."
It’s a welcome with drumming.”
Zhang Tongyun blushed and said angrily: "Sister Xie, do you listen to what he said? He is mocking us. If he is not welcome, we will leave."
Xie Daoyun smiled and said nothing. Li Hui did this on purpose. He knew that Zhang Tongyun was dissatisfied with him, but he still insisted on making her angry.
"Tongyun, I have something serious to talk to the young man from the Li family. He is just teasing you, so don't pay attention." Xie Daoyun said with a smile.
Zhang Tongyun didn't really want to leave. He gave Li Hui a rollicking look and gave up.
