Miss Liu Er turned to look at him: "How many more times do you want to?"
"Not a few times..." Li Yi secretly snapped his fingers, and then urged: "Let's go quickly, don't make Miss Lin and the others wait in a hurry."
Friendship between women always comes very quickly. By the time he and Second Miss Liu walked over, Lin Wanru and Ruyi were already calling "Sister Liu" and "Sister Lin". .
He walked over and asked Lin Yong, "When did you come to Kyoto, and where do you live now?"
Lin Yong replied: "I just arrived yesterday, and I found a random inn to stay in."
Li Yi shook his head and said, "Since we're all in Kyoto, what does it mean to live in an inn? Which inn do you live in? I'll send someone over to help you pack your things, and I'll move here today."
Lin Yong rubbed his hands: "I'm so sorry..."
Ruyi and Lin Wanru came out of the room and said, "Master, there are quite a few vacant guest rooms at home. During this time, let Sister Lin move in, so that I can take care of her."
"That's what I mean too." Li Yi nodded, walked over, looked at Lin Wanru and said, "Miss Lin, which inn are you staying in? I'll send someone over to help you pack your things."
"Don't bother..."
"No trouble, didn't we bother you less at that time?"
"Then, that's fine."
…
Lin Wanru evaded a few words, but finally nodded in agreement.
It took some effort to clean up, so they didn't stay at home too long, so Lao Fang called two guards from the house to help. Li Yi originally planned to go out, so when he met them, he naturally needed to accompany them.
At the entrance of an inn in Kyoto, several figures were walking anxiously.
"When you said it was important, where did Miss Lin go..."
"The goods are still being detained by others. If something goes wrong with this batch of goods, our trip will be in vain..."
"Oh, what can I do, the officials of Jingguo are too deceptive..."
Several businessmen from Qi State scratched their heads, their faces were full of anxiety. In the past, Qi State and Jing State were also hostile relations, but Qi State is powerful, and they will not encounter too many obstacles when doing business in Jing State. He will deliberately give them convenience, but it is different now. Jing Guo has reversed the situation in the past two years, and their situation has suddenly become more difficult.
"Hey, Miss Lin, Miss Lin is back."
Someone said something loudly, and everyone gathered around one after another, eagerly asking: "Miss Lin, what should I do about this matter, please give me a letter..."
Although this Miss Lin is young, her family's business is very large and her background is equally strong. She was the leader of the caravan on this trip.
Li Yi asked in surprise, "Did something happen?"
Lin Yong said depressingly: "It's not about those black-hearted things in the official treasury. The tax is five and one. If the money is paid, this trip will be almost in vain."
"Official treasury?"
After hearing Lin Yong describe the matter again, Li Yi waved his hand and said, "The imperial court generally does not impose such heavy taxes. It should be that the people below deliberately made things difficult. After all, you are from Qi. deal with it."
Several businessmen from the Qi State were speechless at the moment, thinking how proud they were to be Qi people two years ago, and it has been less than two years since they were reduced to being bullied by a small official...
"But the five taxes and one tax are indeed a bit too much." Li Yi knew the way of it, waved his hand, and said, "Let's go, let's settle this matter first."
Lin Wanru grabbed his sleeve and asked, "Will it cause you any trouble?"
"What's the trouble..." Li Yi smiled and said, "It's nothing important anyway. It's good to go to the household department and have a cup of tea. Are you waiting here, or come with me?"
Lin Wanru thought for a while, nodded and said, "I'll go with you."
"I'll go too." Lin Yong said immediately.
"Who is that?" Watching the three leave, a businessman from Qi State turned his head and asked the person behind him suspiciously.
"I don't know..." The shopkeeper of the Lin family who accompanied him also looked blank. He didn't hear that the young lady knew any important people in Jingguo, but why did the one just now look so familiar...
Several businessmen from the Qi Kingdom stared at a certain direction at the same time, feeling both apprehensive and expectant in their hearts. Now, they could only pin all their hopes on this.
On the street, Lin Yong asked in surprise: "Brother Li, why don't we go to the official warehouse, but the household department yamen?"
"As for the taxation issue, it is still in the hands of the Ministry of Accounts, and it will be more effective to find the officials of the Ministry of Accounts." Li Yi explained: "The important thing is that the yamen of the Ministry of Accounts should be closer..."
It was also the first time for Li Yi to come to the yamen of the Ministry of Household Affairs. After revealing his identity, someone immediately went in to communicate. Just as the three entered the courtyard, one of them quickly ran out from a value room.
When the man ran down the steps, he almost fell down. He didn't care about adjusting his official uniform, and said in a panic, "Master Li..."
Li Yi patted him on the shoulder and asked, "Han Langzhong, don't panic, are Qin Shangshu and Zeng Shilang here?"
The Han Langzhong said in fear and fear: "The two adults are not in the yamen for the time being. Dare I ask what is the matter with Master Li? Can I help you?"
This is a trivial matter, and Li Yi briefly mentioned the matter to him if he thought that the household doctor could do it.
"Don't worry, my lord, I'll send someone for this matter right away... No, I'll ask you personally..." Seeing that Master Li didn't come to trouble him, the Han Langzhong immediately felt relieved, said something respectfully, and immediately said something to him. A petty official waved his hand, "What are you doing standing there? Why don't you serve tea to Mr. Li!"
"No need." Li Yi waved his hand and said, "I still have something to do, so I'm leaving first. It's enough for Han Langzhong to finish this matter as soon as possible."
The Han Langzhong bowed immediately: "I will send you off to Mr. Li!"
After walking out of the yamen of the household department, Lin Yong asked in surprise: "Brother Li, I think that doctor just now seems to be very afraid of you?"
"You must have read it wrong." Li Yi looked at him and asked, "Am I that scary?"
Lin Wanru glanced at him, but said nothing.
"It's true..." Lin Yong nodded and asked, "Then where are we going now?"
Li Yi thought for a while and said, "Clean up both sides in a while, it should take a while, have you eaten yet, why don't you find a place to eat first?"
Lin Yong shook his head and said, "I haven't eaten anything since morning."
Li Yi turned his head and asked, "Then let's eat first, Miss Lin, what do you think?"
Lin Wanru nodded, expressing her agreement.
Li Yi looked up, pointed to the restaurant ahead, and said, "That's it."
After entering the restaurant, a waiter quickly greeted them, looked at the people, and said apologetically, "Guests, I'm sorry, the restaurant is full and there are no seats left. Would you like to wait for a while?"
Lin Yong looked at all the seats and said, "Shall we go somewhere else?"
Li Yi looked around, and happened to meet a line of sight from a certain table beside him.
"Come on, Brother Wu, I respect you..."
Just as Wei Junliang picked up his wine glass and gestured slightly to the young man opposite, he suddenly felt something and turned his head to look over.
Slap!
His hand shook involuntarily, the wine glass fell to the ground, and his face began to turn pale.
"Eat well, let's go."
He stood up quickly, lowered his head and walked out the door.
"This dish has just been served, and I haven't taken a bite..." Several young people showed surprise on their faces. When they looked over, they stood up in unison and followed Wei Junliang away.
"Oh, what a coincidence, isn't there a place here?" Lin Yong's face suddenly beamed with joy, he patted the guy on the shoulder, and said, "Quick, go and clean up that table."
Lin Wanru looked back, then looked at Li Yi in surprise, and asked, "Do you know each other?"
Among the young people at the table just now, there were indeed a few people who were familiar with each other, but they couldn't name them. Li Yi nodded and said, "Knowledge means acquaintance, but I'm not familiar with them. There's a place, let's go over quickly Bar… "
