A box of gold nuggets is very conspicuous in the room. It's not like Li Yi has never seen so much money, but the scene of a whole box of gold in front of him has only been seen in TV dramas.
When they were shortest of money and manpower, they could only barely maintain their livelihood by selling jade pendants and poems. How difficult was that period, but it was only a month, so much money was placed here , I can already calm down in my heart.
If it were someone else, seeing so much gold, I'm afraid that he would become a nouveau riche immediately, and he would feel unhappy if he didn't go out and spend a thousand and eight hundred taels of silver.
Cover the box and put it under the bed. When she walked out, Miss Liu Er was doing Tai Chi slowly in the courtyard. This is already an improved version of Ruyi, which focuses more on actual combat and looks more aesthetically pleasing. .
"Get ready, we'll go out later." Li Yi looked at her and said.
"What are you going to do?" Second Miss Liu continued her actions without looking back.
"I have made so much money, how can I squander it without buying something, why don't I spend a thousand dollars..." Li Yi urged: "Hurry up, let's leave after dinner!"
No matter in the past, present, or future, women cannot resist the temptation of shopping. Even a fairy like Miss Liu Er, who is not too eccentric, likes to go shopping occasionally, even if what she buys is just a bunch of useless things. s things.
Immediately finalized today's plan, when Li Yi was busy in the kitchen, Lin Yong came over, leaned against the door, and asked, "Brother Li, do you have anything to do after dinner?"
Li Yi didn't look back, and said, "I'm going out to buy something after dinner."
Lin Yong clapped his hands and said, "Miss is going out soon, let me come over and ask you if you want to go out together?"
Ever since Lin Wanru refused to pay him last time, she would always do something intentionally or unintentionally.
For example, give Ms. Liu a hairpin or a bracelet, or when passing by a tailor shop, if she sees a beautiful dress, she will buy it and give it to her, like a disguised form of compensation.
This kind of thing happens every few days, and Li Yi is used to it.
"Okay." Li Yi only hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
For such a long time in the past, Second Miss Liu has been staying at home to recuperate her injuries, and occasionally went out with him. The only person she came into contact with on weekdays, except him, was Lin Wanru who occasionally came to talk.
Li Yiyou noticed that Lin Wanru didn't seem to have any friends on weekdays. It was the Lin family and the shop every day, two o'clock and one line, two women who didn't like talking very much, during this period of time, they actually established a strange relationship. relationship.
Of course, although they don't like to talk, there are degrees.
When she was with Miss Liu Er, Lin Wanru talked more.
Going shopping with women is actually a very tiring thing, because they don't know they are tired at all.
When passing by the most famous rouge and gouache shop in Fengzhou City, Miss Liu Er and Lin Wanru went in, and he and Lin Yong could only wait outside.
Although there is no sign saying "Men are forbidden to enter" outside this kind of shop, most men will choose to avoid it. The people inside are all women, and Li Yi doesn't like the smell of makeup and perfume.
Lin Yong squatted on the steps beside him and asked, "Brother Li, you dare to sell such a small bottle of 'perfume' for two taels of silver. These women are still rushing to buy it. I really don't understand what's going on in their hearts Thought!"
Li Yi looked down at him, if a rough man like this could understand a woman's mind, the sun might come out from the west.
What is two taels of silver? A small bottle of limited edition Blue Enchantress in Jingguo Jingdu costs two hundred taels of silver and there are a large group of people scrambling to buy it. As such, there is still a price but no market. Perfume is just bought from Kyoto. You can buy a bottle with two taels of silver, and you can't even get back the original. If the perfume sold by these unscrupulous purchasing agents has not been diluted, his Li characters are written upside down.
There is a tea stand next to the shop. There are many customers at the tea stand, chatting while drinking tea.
Li Yi was not in the mood to listen to them, and estimated the time, at most half a month before they could set off to go back. This time they entered Qi State not deeply, and if they were fast, they would be able to reach Shuzhou in two days, Miss Liu Er Under his careful care, there was no serious problem with his body, and the closer the day of going back, the more anticipation he felt in his heart.
Some faint voices still came from his ears, such as "corrupt officials", "big prince", "serving the country and the people", etc. Lin Yong has a restless temper, Li Yi ignored him, and the old man beside him even If he didn't know how to talk to him, he simply moved his butt and leaned to the side.
"Not to mention, those people have really done a lot of good things for Fengzhou this time. Corrupt officials should be arrested. The more they are arrested, the better. The more they are arrested, the better off the people will be."
A young man dressed as a scholar glanced at him and said: "Although it is said so, there is no certainty. Such a big fanfare and fighting may not be all good things. It will stir up the whole Fengzhou and the neighboring states. It’s not a good thing for the people.”
Someone interjected: "Yeah, which official is not corrupt, the results of big and small corruption are the same. In the past two days, no one in the county government has handled the case, and the bandits have become rampant. Every morning, the people who go to the county government to report the case are at the door. There's a long queue."
…
…
They were all ordinary people, drinking tea and chatting. Lin Yong finally found someone who was willing to talk to him, so he simply sat by the tea stand and chatted with everyone enthusiastically.
Li Yi leaned on a pillar, thinking about whether Ruyi would give birth to a boy or a girl, what the boy should be named, and what the girl should be named, when a voice suddenly came from his ear.
"Young Master, what do you think about the Eldest Prince's investigation of corrupt officials in Fengzhou?"
He turned around and saw an old man with half-white hair standing up beside the tea stand, looked at him and said with a smile.
Li Yi looked him up and down, and shook his head slightly.
The little book in his hand is probably not recording the rumors heard from the people of Fengzhou. The thin bamboo tube at the waist should be filled with writing brushes. Look at this extremely familiar attire. Whoever is caught asking whoever thinks about the current affairs of the government...
Both Jingguo and Qiguo's censors are of the same virtue, and it's okay to have a little bit of new tricks, and they do things in the same simple and rude way. Even if they are a little tactful, they will not be easily guessed.
You can't talk nonsense in front of the censor. These people are all rumors, which means that as long as they hear some kind of news, no matter whether it is true or false, they can tell it openly.
If Li Yi said now that Zhao Yi, the third prince of Qi State, and Zhao Xiuwen, the poet sage, had some kind of improper transaction for a long time, and a certain censor heard about it, it won't be long before everyone knows that they like Longyang.
It is the censor's prerogative to speak without being responsible.
"What else can I look at, stand at the door of the house and watch..." Li Yi glanced at him and said, "The officers and soldiers have been arresting people outside every day these days, it's very lively..."
With a smile on his face, the old man was about to answer and ask some questions, but he opened his mouth halfway, but he didn't know what he wanted to ask just now.
