Chapter 132 Miscellaneous? The Imperial Army? I can't tell the difference
Li Qi found that he was wrong.
His mistake was that he should not have taught Hong Tianjiu and Gao Yanei to sing in a narrow and unavoidable space.
But the big mistake had been made, and he could only cry silently in his heart.
Along the way, Gao Yanei and Hong Tianjiu sang the song "Because of Love" like ghosts crying or wolf howling, which tortured Li Qi for nearly half an hour.
Of course, from another perspective, this is what Li Qi wants to see most.
Just when Li Qi couldn't bear it anymore, the carriage suddenly stopped.
"Ya Nei, here we are."
An idle man stood outside the car on the road.
"We're here? How come it's so fast today?"
Gao Yanei shook his head with unfinished thoughts, as if he wasn't satisfied with singing yet.
The three people got off the carriage and saw that the terrain was very open everywhere, and there was a large river lying not far away, which was the Jinshui River.
Li Qi looked around and saw that the street near Jinshui River was lined with shops and restaurants, with an endless stream of pedestrians. There were also many vendors setting up stalls on the street. It was quite lively, but it was far less popular than the one on Bianhe Street.
As prosperous as it is, at least there is no restaurant like Feicui Xuan and Fanlou in this West City.
Li Qi looked away and asked Gao Yanei: "Yanei, where is the house you mentioned?"
"Isn't it right there?"
Gao Yanei said, pointing to the right front.
Li Qi followed Gao Yanei's finger and saw that in an open space on the right side of the street, there was a large room that was estimated to be at least six to seven hundred square meters.
After a while, several people arrived in front of the big house.
The door was closed at this time. There was a big iron lock hanging in front of the door.
Gao Yanei glanced at the idle man beside him, and saw the idle man picking up a stone from the ground and walking towards the door.
"Wait a minute."
When Li Qi saw him, he quickly stopped him and asked Gao Yanei, "Yanei, what are you planning to do?"
"Open the door!"
"Open the door?"
Li Qi was stunned, pointed at the stone in the idle man's hand, and asked: "Use this to open it? Is this house yours?"
"Of course it's mine."
Gao Yanei sighed and said, "It's just that I forgot to bring the key when I came out this morning."
What a talent, what a genius!
Li Qi opened his eyes and nodded speechlessly: "Okay then."
Bang bang bang.
The idle man seemed to have done this kind of thing frequently. He knocked open the lock in a few strokes.
"Yamen please."
Gao Yanei nodded and walked in first.
Li Qi walked behind and pulled Hong Tianjiu to his side. He asked in a low voice: "Xiaojiu, this house really belongs to Yanei's family."
Hong Tianjiu shrugged and said, "I didn't know that. Anyway, the lock was broken. It doesn't belong to his family, and it belongs to his family now."
Is this okay?
After hearing this, Li Qi felt dumbfounded.
Entering the house, it was very empty. There was not even a stool, and there was dust everywhere. It seemed that no one had been here for a long time.
Li Qi saw that the structure of this house was neither like a restaurant nor a Goulan tile house. For a moment, he really couldn't guess what this house was used for before. He asked curiously: "Ya Nei, what was this house used for before?"
of?"
Gao Yanei said: "Oh, this used to be a sumo wrestling studio."
"Sumo wrestling studio?"
Li Qi nodded. He knew that sumo wrestling is very popular these days, especially women's sumo wrestling, which is more popular and second only to Cuju in terms of sports. He asked again: "Is this sumo wrestling studio opened by the Taiwei?
"
Gao Yanei glanced at him angrily and said: "My dad is busy playing Cuju all day long. How could he have the time to do this? But I heard from my dad that this sumo wrestling studio was previously opened by a man named Huang.
That man abandoned the house and ran away after he was in debt, and somehow, this house fell into the hands of my father."
Don't know how?
Li Qi shook his head speechlessly, thinking that it seemed that Gao Qiuqiang had taken this house back. He looked at the room again and saw how much such a big room was worth. Gao Qiu was really rich.
black.
"Brother Li, can you see this house?"
Hong Tianjiu asked hurriedly. He was not interested in anything else except the bar.
Li Qi looked at the room carefully and nodded secretly. The size, structure and location of this room are perfect for a bar. He smiled and said: "Not bad, very good."
Gao Yanei looked happy and asked: "When will the bar open?"
Li Qi shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it will take some time."
Gao Yanei's eyes widened and he said angrily: "Why is this? You said earlier that you were going to attend the Crab Roe Banquet, so that's it. But now the Crab Roe Banquet is over, why do you still want us to wait? I think you are
He is deliberately teasing me."
Hong Tianjiu also nodded slightly. This time he stood on Gao Yanei's side.
When he met these two business idiots, Li Qizhen was about to burst into tears. He patiently explained: "Yanei, look at this place. There isn't even a chair. You can't let the guests sit on the floor, right?"
"That's true."
Gao Yanei nodded and said: "It's easy. Just bring some tables and chairs. There's no need to wait for a while."
"It's not that simple."
Li Qi sighed: "Yameni, think about it, who is the proprietor of this bar? It is opened by Gao Taiwei's son and Hongwan Gambling House's son. How could he be so hasty? If you ask me, either don't open it,
If you want to open it, you have to open it differently. From tables, chairs, benches, to fine wine and food, we have to use the best and most innovative ones. Only in this way can we show the wisdom of Yanei and Xiaojiu, and let your parents know that even if you are just playing,
They all play more tastefully than others."
"Yes, yes, what you said makes sense."
Gao Yanei nodded in agreement and asked, "Then what are you going to do?"
Li Qi narrowed his eyes and said: "I plan to personally design the layout of the entire bar. Even if it is a lampshade, I want it to be the most unique. Of course, what we have to do now is to find the decoration craftsmen first."
"That's it?" Gao Yanei looked at Li Qi in surprise and said.
Li Qi nodded and asked, "Isn't this important?"
"Did you tell me earlier? I have many craftsmen at home, and they are all the best in Tokyo."
Gao Yanei rolled his eyes at Li Qi and said casually: "How many do you want? Is three hundred people enough?"
“Not bad”
Before the word "many" came out of his mouth, Li Qi suddenly woke up and said in shock, "Yamenei, how many people did you just say?"
"Three hundred people? Isn't that enough?" Gao Yanei said in shock.
Three hundred craftsmen? Li Qi vaguely remembered. The last time Zuixianju was decorated, Wu Furong traveled to most of Bianliang City and only hired thirty or forty craftsmen. When Gao Yanei opened his mouth, there were three hundred people. Li Qi felt
Feeling a little dizzy, he said in disbelief: "You said your family alone has three hundred craftsmen?"
"What's all the fuss about."
Gao Yanei curled his lips and said disdainfully: "No matter how many people you want, I can still find them for you." But in his heart, he thought that a cook is just a cook and has never seen the world.
Hong Tianjiu chuckled and said, "Brother Li, don't you know? There are more than a thousand people in my brother's house alone. These three hundred people are really nothing."
Li Qi opened his mouth and said: "You are not teasing me, are you?"
Gao Yanei said angrily: "Who has time to tease you? You should tell me quickly what to do. I have to rush to see Lady Feng later."
You see, Mrs. Feng has nothing to do with me. Li Qi pretended not to hear, and asked with a gossipy face: "Yameni, why do you have so many handymen? How much money does it cost?"
"Brother Li, you don't have to worry about this."
Hong Tianjiu interjected: "Actually, these handymen were selected by Uncle Gao from the Forbidden Army. I have seen it before, tsk tsk, and they all have good skills. My new gambling house last year was able to open so quickly. How could it be so good?"
It all depends on my brother asking the servants in his house to help."
"What? Custodes?"
Wow! It’s such a big deal. Li Qi was sweating profusely, swallowed his saliva, and said, "You said you wanted the imperial army to help decorate our bar? Are you crazy?" He felt that his heartbeat was about to stop.
"You are crazy."
Gao Yanei's face became angry and he said confidently: "We don't want to fight now. They have nothing to do in the military camp. If we still get money every month, why not find something for them to do? Xiaojiu, don't you think so?
.”
"Yes, what my brother said is absolutely correct." Hong Tianjiu nodded in agreement.
Can this damn thing be called the Forbidden Army? Oh my god!
When Li Qi heard this, he understood everything and wanted to understand it. Gao Qiu had military power, which he had known for a long time, but he did not expect that Gao Qiu actually used the military camp as his own labor camp, and paid
It was the imperial court that did this. As a businessman, Li Qi had to applaud him for doing this kind of thing. He was so damn good at doing business.
But then again, this soldier didn't train in the military camp, but went to work as a handyman in someone else's house? Now he finally understood why an army of 150,000 was defeated by a few thousand others.
With such an army, how could the Northern Song Dynasty survive?
As everyone knows, the purpose of raising troops in the Northern Song Dynasty was to prevent internal troubles. The founding emperor of the Song Dynasty, Song Taizu, believed that "the only way to benefit hundreds of generations is to raise troops, because in bad years and hungry years, there are rebels against the people but no rebel soldiers." The purpose of raising troops is that I
I asked you not to rebel. There are rebels but no rebel soldiers. As a result, every time there is a famine, the government sends people to disaster areas to recruit hungry people to serve as soldiers.
Isn't there a slogan like "Put up a recruiting flag, and there will be people who will eat food." When I put up the flag, people will come to eat food. I'm not here to protect our country, but simply to solve the problem of food and clothing.
I have to say that Song Taizu was really a great philanthropist.
However, if this is the case, then your army still has a fighting capacity of 10%. The soldiers are all made up of hungry people.
And Gao Qiu was deeply rooted in the essence of Taizu, and his recruitment regulations were very profit-oriented. He didn't want anything else, but only recruited people who knew a certain craft to serve as soldiers, and then asked these soldiers to come to his house to replace him.
He works to earn money.
What depresses Li Qi the most is that Gao Qiu, a traitorous minister, is not ranked high on the list of traitors these days. One can only imagine what the traitorous minister in that room is like.
Well, well, since these soldiers are just there for others to use even if I don't use them, I might as well take them and use them myself, since I'm not paying for them anyway.
Depressed as hell, Li Qi could only follow the trend and reluctantly said, "Well, I'll figure out the decoration plan as soon as possible."
"Then you have to hurry up, I don't have the patience to wait any longer."
Li Qi nodded and said, "Yes, I know."
"Oh, Brother Li, you should prepare more Hongtian wine when the time comes."
"Don't worry, I won't miss you."
