The second day.
Li Zexuan did not stay in bed and got up early. He would go to Hanjiazhuang to deliver Quyuanli today. As for the business of Qiquge, Li Zexuan told his father last night, asking him to send a reliable shopkeeper to take care of it today. The reputation of Qiquge was already established yesterday, and the rest of the work can be done step by step. Li Zexuan does not need to Staying there every day, there is nothing better than being a hands-off shopkeeper.
Before Li Zexuan had breakfast, he asked Sanbao to quickly go to the horse and carriage shop to hire four carriages specially used to transport goods. Sanbao did not go to buy chicken seedlings with Butler Wang today. Li Zexuan asked Wang Zhong to take Ah Fu. He wanted Sanbao to go to Zhuangzi with him today.
After breakfast, he came to the door of his house to see if Sanbao was back, but instead of seeing Sanbao, he saw Cheng Chumo.
"Hey, Ugly Cow, why are you here?"
After Cheng Chumo returned home with a bruised nose and face last night, he was naturally tortured by Cheng Yaojin. Seeing him like that, Lao Cheng thought he had gone out to fight with someone again. Cheng Chumo explained for a long time before Cheng Yaojin reluctantly believed him and glared at him angrily:
"It's a worthless thing. It's so embarrassing for you and me to fall like this just for playing with a broken car."
Cheng Chumo also knew that this time he was embarrassed, so he stood there silently being scolded, but did not dare to talk back.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Yaojin went on to say:
"You ask Xiaoxuan to make one for me some other time. I, Old Cheng, would like to see what kind of car can knock you down like this!"
Cheng Chumo cursed in his heart: I'm afraid you will fall worse than me when you get older.
… …
Cheng Chumo suddenly remembered something this morning. Yesterday, he had planned to ask Li Zexuan why his family was buying chickens so aggressively, but he fell down and forgot about it, so he came to see Li Zexuan just after breakfast. Li Zexuan.
Seeing Li Zexuan just at the door, Cheng Chumo stepped forward and wanted to pull him to the corner and ask him what happened.
"What are you doing, what are you doing? In broad daylight, tugging and tugging, what a shame!"
When Li Zexuan saw that Cheng Chumo didn't say anything, he came over to pull him. His anus tightened immediately. He didn't want to be gay, so he quickly slapped Cheng Chumo's paw away.
Cheng Chumo's face was full of black lines: "Xiao Xuan, what are you thinking about? I have business with you, so come here quickly."
"Oh, you should have told me earlier! If you have anything to do, come in and talk about it. What do you say outside?"
Li Zexuan tidied his clothes and took Cheng Chumo to the front hall.
After the two sat down, Cheng Chumo couldn't wait to ask: "Xiao Xuan, brother, I'm here to ask you something today. Don't fool me, kid."
Li Zexuan took a sip of tea and said casually: "What's the matter?"
Cheng Chumo leaned over and asked in a low voice: "Xiaoxuan, why did your family buy so many chickens yesterday?"
"how do you know?"
Li Zexuan was shocked and asked quickly.
"Hey, there are only so many things going on in Chang'an City all year round. How can you hide this little thing? A caring person will know it if he pays a little attention. Xiaoxuan, tell me honestly, why did you buy so much? Chickens? Will the price of chicken go up next year? Do you know that you have almost emptied all the chickens in Chang'an?"
Cheng Chumo chuckled evilly and said that as long as it was profitable, he would also like to go back and ask his father to buy a batch of chickens.
Hearing Cheng Chumo's question, Li Zexuan became a little silent. He must not tell the prophecy of the locust plague. Not only would no one believe him, but his family would also suffer from it. But he couldn't tell Cheng Chumo nothing. This guy was the first brother he made when he came to Datang. Judging from the previous events, Cheng Chumo was the kind of person who could help his brothers at critical moments. , maybe you can give him a hint. After hesitating for a long time, Li Zexuan asked:
"Ugly Cow, how many fields does your family have?"
Cheng Chumo was stunned when he was asked. He didn't know why Li Zexuan asked him this, but he still replied: "I don't know much about this. It should be more than 5,000 acres. Xiaoxuan, why are you asking this?"
With so many, this is a big landowner. It is estimated that next year's locust plague will cause their farmers to suffer even more serious losses, Li Zexuan sighed in his heart.
At this time, he suddenly looked at Cheng Chumo with great solemnity and said in an extremely serious tone: "Chou Niu, if you really believe me, then when you go back, ask Uncle Cheng to buy some more chickens and give them to your farmers to feed." I really can’t tell you the reason now. Wait until June next year and you will know why. In short, if you really believe me, just do as I say. Don’t worry, I, Li Zexuan, will never harm your family. Brother’s.”
Cheng Chumo was also startled by Li Zexuan's serious expression. When Li Zexuan finished speaking, he carefully thought about Li Zexuan's words several times in his mind, but still couldn't come up with a reason. However, the second half of what Li Zexuan said did make sense, and Cheng Chumo was also very I firmly believe that Li Zexuan will not harm him.
"Xiao Xuan, since you have difficulties that you can't talk about, I won't force you, brother. When I go back, I will try my best to persuade my father. Brother believes that you will not harm your brothers. Although I, Cheng Chumo, am not as smart as those literati, But I’m pretty good at judging people.”
Li Zexuan smiled and said:
"Thank you Chou Niu for your trust. Your efforts will be well rewarded next June."
"Master, we have hired chariots and horses, and Mr. Yan is also here to see you."
Sanbao suddenly came in to report.
Li Zexuan nodded and walked out quickly. Sure enough, he saw four cargo carriages parked in the courtyard, and Yan Shaoning also came.
"Brother Shaoning, you are here."
"Well, I guess you're not late. Hey, the ugly cow is here too?"
Yan Shaoning was surprised when he saw Cheng Chumo coming out following Li Zexuan.
"Xiaoxuan, Shaoning, where are you going with so many carriages?"
Cheng Chumo came out and saw so many carriages, and according to Yan Shaoning, they seemed to be going out today, so he couldn't help but ask curiously.
There was nothing to hide from Qu Yuuli, so Li Zexuan explained it to Cheng Chumo.
"This Quyuanli is really as amazing as Xiaoxuan you said? No, I will go over with you today to have a look. If it is really that amazing, Xiaoxuan, you must give priority to taking care of my brother and me. Our banker also complained this year There are not enough oxen, so some people may miss the spring plowing.”
"No problem, then let's go to the workshop to pull the plow together while we stand!"
One more person is not too much, and one person less than him is not a lot. Since Cheng Chumo wanted to follow him, Li Zexuan certainly would not refuse.
Li Zexuan asked four grooms to drive the carriage. He, Cheng Chumo, and Yan Shaoning followed behind on horseback, and the group rushed towards the workshop.
What surprised Li Zexuan was that he saw a few naughty kids on the road, riding scooters and racing against each other. The other naughty kids around him looked on with envy.
Li Zexuan smiled knowingly. All this was within his expectation. In the next period of time, the sales of Qiqige scooters will snowball and usher in explosive growth.
