The servants of the Li family moved carts and carts of gifts home, while Li Yi stood in the yard, thinking of new ways to get money.
It's not a problem to disappear all the time. It's okay to disappear once or twice. Others are not fools. If it happens more often, they may suspect that it is a fraud. In this way, the good reputation he has finally built up will be destroyed.
Once done.
If you think about it carefully, when you and Ruyi went to the church to get married, you were in a daze and couldn't even remember what happened.
This was the first time he got married in his life. It was too hasty. He would have to find an opportunity to hold another formal wedding in the future. It would be a grand and earth-shattering wedding. The royal family wanted to invite it, and the Wang family also wanted to invite it. Whichever family in Kyoto had the money to invite it?
,As for Li Xuan--it depends on how big the gift he gives.
Calculated this way, there will be many opportunities to receive gifts in the future...
Thinking about it again, it seems that my birthday is coming soon. In the past two years, I spent it at home with Ruyi and the others. Do I want to make some small arrangements this year?
Well, this is something worth considering.
"Uncle, there is no room for that room."
Lao Fang came over and said with a surprised look on his face. Today is not a holiday, and the people giving gifts have almost lined up outside the village.
"Clean up another room and come out." Li Yi waved his hand, and when he was about to go out and take a look, he saw someone who surprised him.
"I've met Li County Marquis."
When he saw Li Yi again, Wei Shilang's attitude was very low.
No gift can be exaggerated from others. This Minister of Rites, Wei Shilang, is from the King of Shu and has a close relationship with the Chen family. How could he come here at this time? Could it be that he is attracted by his own personality and wants to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side?
Wei Shilang glared at Wei Junliang and said angrily: "You traitor, why don't you admit your mistake to Marquis Li quickly!"
One side of Wei Junliang's face was still swollen, and he said in a trembling voice: "Mr. Li County, I am blind and blind, and I bumped into you. Please don't remember the villain's fault..."
Although the two were similar in age, Wei Junliang was so bold that he did not dare to regard the other as someone of equal status to himself.
Wei Jiqian smiled and said: "Master Hou, the money to compensate for the girl's clothes was sent to her last night."
After coming out of Chen's house yesterday, the last glimmer of hope in his heart was extinguished.
Although he had just been transferred to Kyoto not long ago, he had already heard about County Marquis Li's murderous methods.
If he is targeted, even if the Chen family is behind him, he will not end up well.
Li Yi smiled and said, "Master Wei is really trustworthy..."
Wei Ji nodded repeatedly: "It should, it should..."
Seeing that the two of them were still standing here, Li Yi asked tentatively: "Master Wei, do you want to go in for a cup of tea?"
Of course, the meaning of this sentence is not to invite them in for tea. To understand it accurately, it should be: Why don't you leave? Do you want me to invite you in for a cup of tea?
Wei Ji is a mature man, and his ability to observe words and emotions is also first-rate, so he can naturally understand what he means.
"Li County is busy, let's go back first."
"Sir, you are back..." A young man walked in from outside, looked at Li Yi with a happy face, looked back, and asked doubtfully: "Sir, is that Wei Ji, the Minister of Rites?"
Li Yi patted Liu Yishou on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I am already a minister, so don't call me sir."
Liu Yishou smiled and did not agree or refute.
Some habits cannot be changed in a short time, and he has no intention of changing them.
"Isn't Wei Ji from the Chen family?" Liu Yishou asked with a trace of confusion on his face, "Why is he here?"
Wei Ji patted his butt and left. Only then did Li Yi realize that this guy only brought his son with him today, and that he didn't give any gifts when he came to visit - it was rude!
"I don't know..." Hearing Liu Yishou's words, he shook his head and said, "I heard that Wei Shilang spent 10,000 taels of silver to buy a piece of clothing. It's really luxurious. He, a small servant, will spend his whole life.
The total salary and salary are not that much, and I don’t know where the money comes from. I need to pay more attention after I go down to avoid corruption..."
Liu Yishou's status in the Secret Intelligence Department is not low. As a sharp sword hanging over the heads of officials, the Secret Intelligence Department has a supervisory and warning role for them. Fighting corruption is also one of their responsibilities.
Liu Yishou was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "My subordinates will remember it."
I originally planned to go out early today to look at the house, then inspect the shops, check the fences, and see the situation outside. I am afraid that this plan will be temporarily shelved and we will wait until the afternoon to see the situation.
"I heard that you slapped Qin Yu again in the restaurant yesterday. It really relieved your hatred. It's a pity that I wasn't there..." Li Xuan walked in with a very regretful expression on his face.
His character is just to watch the excitement and not take it too seriously. He can even kick the king of Shu. He even beat Qin Yu once before him------What kind of evil has Young Master Qin done? As the saying goes, there are many things.
If you are unjust, you will die. I always like to steal other people's wives. If I go out, I will either be slapped or severely injured. This is retribution...
After having the Academy of Sciences, Li Xuan became a true science madman. He could not see the Crown Princess in the palace at ordinary times, so he could only vent all his energy on research.
Li Xuan did not come alone. His uncle Wang Yong followed him, stepped forward and said apologetically to Li Yi: "I'm really sorry. I have already punished Wang Yue for what happened yesterday. I hope you can
Brother Li, don’t take it to heart.”
"How could it be? If the child disobeys, just hang him up and give him a beating." Li Yi is not a person who likes to hold grudges, so he waved his hand to express that he didn't care.
"It said inside." Wang Yong came here, probably to discuss cooperation matters with him. As a friendly business partner, his attitude towards him is naturally better.
After serving tea, Wang Yong just took a sip and then went straight to the point, describing to Li Yi in detail everything about the glass business in the past few months.
A few months ago, when Li Yi left Kyoto, it happened to be the end of the Wang family's glass charity sale.
The number of colored glazes sold at that charity sale was carefully planned to ensure the needs of the wealthy people in Kyoto without looking undesirable and causing prices to plummet.
The royal family, the Wang family, and the Li family made a lot of money in those few days.
After that, in order to ensure continued profits, there was no longer any large-scale colored glaze sales around Kyoto, except for the Wang family who occasionally had a small amount of colored glaze ware flowing out.
Waves of foreign businessmen left Kyoto, leaving their footprints in various parts of Jingguo. They left Jingguo and went to the world, letting the light of the sun never set shine to farther places...
"The Cui family has accumulated a large amount of colored glaze through some channels." Wang Yong frowned slightly and said, "Although they haven't released it yet, I heard that the Cui family will hold a meeting in Kyoto in the near future.
Glass Appreciation Society, this is not good news for us."
Of course Li Yi knew how the Cui family obtained the colored glaze, and he had been paying attention to the news from the Cui family.
However, he still didn't know that the Cui family was going to hold a glass appreciation party. It seemed that even if there was an intelligence system, sometimes it would not be as well-informed as these century-old wealthy families.
There are actually many businesses under the Cui family's name, and they cover a wide range of areas. The Li family has an almost absolute monopoly on the perfume and spirits businesses, but there are no big secrets in garments or weaving.
, there are countless counterfeiters, and the Cui family is the largest counterfeiter. Even if the quality and reputation are not the same, it will still have an impact on their own business to a greater or lesser extent.
Miss Zeng complained to herself yesterday that these counterfeiters with bad intentions used inferior materials and low prices, and had a very bad reputation among customers, which affected the entire garment industry...
It seemed that the Cui family was having a lot of fun while I was away from Kyoto.
"Liu Li Appreciation Club?" Li Yi smiled and murmured: "It seems it's time to release a large number of foreign merchants..."
Wang Yong had a look of confusion on his face, looked at him and asked: "What's the big wave?"
