"Master, time is urgent. Let's set off early tomorrow morning." After discussing with the young man for a while, the old man surnamed Li came over and said.
"Let's do it tomorrow." Li Yi waved his hand. Since he can't leave in a few days, it doesn't make any difference whether it is tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. He should go early and come back early, and he is still waiting to go home to do business.
"Well, we will come to pick you up early tomorrow morning." After the old man said this, he and the young man left.
Pack up as soon as possible and set off early tomorrow morning. If the journey goes well, you should be able to reach the capital in five days.
"Uncle, where are you going?" After the two of them walked away, Xiaohuan looked down at Li Yi and asked in a low voice, her tone a little nervous.
Li Yi patted her little hand and said: "Don't worry, I just went to the capital to do some things and will be back soon. I will bring you the rouge from the capital and the rouge and gouache from Wanhuazhai, which are only available in the capital."
Sell."
Last time, Li Xuan sent several boxes of high-quality rouge. It was said that it was specially provided by the imperial palace and was very precious. It was only sold at Wanhuazhai in the capital. The little maid was reluctant to use it and hid it in the cabinet. As a result, it was ruined by mice.
He had been sad for a long time. Li Yi originally planned to ask Li Xuan how many boxes he wanted, but later he found out that there were not many of them in the palace, and the last few boxes had all been given to him last time.
Xiaohuan nodded with some disappointment. Although she had wanted Rouge from Wanhuazhai for a long time, she even hoped that during the Lantern Festival in a few days, her uncle would take her and the young lady to watch the lanterns together, but he would be leaving tomorrow.
, no matter how beautiful the lanterns are, they are meaningless.
Whether it is to repay a favor or to seek peace of mind, no matter what the reason is, this trip to the capital is inevitable. Even if Li Yi plans to just wait until the old lady's birthday is over before returning immediately, I am afraid it will take at least half the time.
I have been away from Qing'an Mansion for more than a month, and I still need to explain some things before I leave.
The first thing to do is, of course, to go to the county government office to ask for leave.
This is simple. Speaking of which, the sick leave granted to him by Her Royal Highness the Princess has not been used up yet. Now he is working while sick, and his salary has been doubled...
All you need to do is tell Magistrate Liu, and he will take care of everything else.
Magistrate Liu had nothing good to say about this county captain who almost never appeared in the county government office.
Of course, he would not put Li Yi in the same position as the former Zhou Xianwei. Not to mention that the backgrounds of the two people were very different. In terms of Li Xianwei's contribution to the yamen alone, he was
Can't find anything wrong with it.
These days, under the instruction of the prefect, several counties under the jurisdiction of Qing'an Prefecture have sent county captains to those who have county captains. For those who do not have county captains, the county magistrates have come in person to discuss the office model of Anxi County Government.
We conducted an on-the-spot investigation, and before leaving, we deliberately left a few officers behind to stay in the county government to study and reform. Anxi County's good public security was promoted as an example. Magistrate Liu has been an official for many years, and this is the first time.
Such a bright face...
Li Yi came out of the county government office and walked straight towards the theater.
Wan Ruoqing and Old Man Sun should also inform you that the expansion of the theater must be stopped these days, and the existing site must be managed well first. If the foundation is unstable, there is a high possibility of complete collapse in the future.
"Hehe, sir, don't worry. With our current manpower, we have reached the limit of running the several existing theaters inside and outside the city. There are many people who want to join, but we just let them do odd jobs, do trivial things, and fool around.
There is nothing to eat, and several stewards are now training their own people. When they are capable enough, they will be sent out..."
Old Man Sun was spitting with excitement, and in a few words he painted a grand blueprint for Li Yi. It seemed that he wanted to open theaters in all the capitals of Jingguo in his lifetime.
Everyone is busy, even Wu Er, who has just joined the theater, is no exception.
The boss of the Wu family continues to be in the business of escorting escorts and selling goods, and by the way, he collects all kinds of intelligence in the martial arts world. Anecdotes about the martial arts world and the rankings of masters have been completely handed over to Wu Shuili and several storytellers under him.
Using the fastest speed to compile martial arts events into various jokes, the list of martial arts heroes changes three times a day. His influence is not limited to Qing'an Prefecture, but also has a lot of popularity in several neighboring states.
Wan Ruoqing is still so bright and charming, but her whole person has become much thinner. Li Yi frowned and said: "Just let the people below do the things in the theater. You just need to control the overall situation and avoid accidents."
It’s just a big mistake, don’t worry too much.”
Li Yi's original intention was just to let them use their own abilities to change their embarrassing lives, but he did not expect that the small Goulan at the beginning would develop into such a huge thing now. Wan Ruoqing's body was already weak, and if she collapsed from exhaustion, she would naturally
It's not worth the gain.
"I know." Wan Ruoqing smiled and nodded.
The theater's current scale was beyond her expectation. Step by step to get to where it is now, they have all put in a lot of effort for it, and naturally they cherish it very much. They have personally handled everything big and small. More importantly, she
I really want to make some achievements and let him see...
"That's right, Sister Ruoqing gets up before dawn every day and stays up until midnight. She has lost a lot of weight these days!" the girl named Xiaozhu said angrily.
Li Yi patted her shoulder and said: "From now on, you will be Sister Ruoqing's personal manager. Your monthly salary is the same as those of other managers. The only thing you have to do is to watch her carefully and not allow her to
It’s so tiring, do you understand?”
"I understand!" The girl blushed, patted her small breasts, and promised: "Don't worry, I will make Sister Ruoqing fat and white, just like before---No,
I was too thin before, I’m a little fatter than before!”
Li Yi smiled, then looked at them and said: "I have something to do and need to go out for a while. If anything happens these days, you two can just discuss it. If you encounter any trouble that cannot be solved, go to the county government to see Mr. Liu."

When passing by the entrance of Qunyu Courtyard, Li Yi stopped for a moment and was hesitating whether to go in and say goodbye. The girl who was standing at the door soliciting customers had already greeted him with a smile on his face.
"Sir, do you want to come in and play..."
Seeing the girl talking and the white powder on her face falling down, Li Yi immediately stopped hesitating and strode away.
They've only been out for half a month, so what's the point of saying goodbye? The things have already been delivered to Xiao Cui. At most, when he comes back, he can treat her to a meal and express his apology in person. That should be sincere enough, right?
When he stepped into the house, Ruyi was helping him pack his things. There was already a bulging bundle on the table, and she was putting a few coins into another small bundle.
"These..." Li Yi pointed to the baggage, and Ruyi explained: "They are just a change of clothes. It is not convenient to use banknotes. The journey is long. My husband brought more money. The old lady should buy some for her birthday."
A decent gift, don’t be laughed at by others..."
"By the way, I am inconvenient, let Ruyi and my husband go to the capital together. I don't know what will happen along the way. With Ruyi here, I can always protect my husband..."
Seeing her rambling while cleaning up, a peerless master of a generation, showing the attitude of a little woman, Li Yi stood there, slightly in a daze.
The scene at this time was really like the thoughts of a husband who was worried about his little wife before his departure. It was also a feeling that Li Yi had never experienced in his two lives.
The first time I saw the woman who smashed the wooden table with her palm and said "I am Liu Ruyi", it seemed like it was yesterday. I don't know when she started to look more and more like a little wife...
