Chapter 998 Kind of Weird (Part [-])
The massive chaos lasted for three days.

On the fourth day, the sun peeked out, but was covered by a sea of ​​clouds after a while.

It is still a comfortable and warm day, and because the sun is not strong, the world is more comfortable.

When Shen Lie stepped onto the attic of Sihai Teahouse, he saw a ladder erected, and a hole opened up in the roof.

He climbed the ladder upstairs and saw Zhili leaning on the roof with a long leaf in his mouth, and Xia Zhaoyi who was leaning on the cornice in the distance, also holding a long leaf in his mouth.

"Brother Shen!" Zhili sat up happily and said, "Brother Shen, you are here."

Xia Zhaoyi looked back and saw Shen Lie, who was dressed in a moon-white brocade robe, dazzlingly white under the sky.

"Do you still need this ladder to go upstairs?" Shen Lie asked.

"It's called idle fun," Zhili said, "It's also convenient for Shopkeeper Li and Brother Zhanning to come and call us."

Shen Lie nodded and looked at Xia Zhaoyi.

Coincidentally, the girl is also wearing moon-white clothes today, with black hair hanging down, and a cute peach fruit hairpin. Her cold cheeks are set off by this peach fruit jade hairpin.

Shen Lie stepped over the main ridge, walked towards the eaves, sat down on the vertical ridge, slightly hooked his lips, and said calmly: "Go to Li Qianxue's mansion first, you are not at the mansion."

"Finally finished." Xia Zhaoyi smiled.

Shen Lie also smiled, looking at the busy street: "Yeah."

They are done with their work, but for the entire Mingtai County, it has just begun.

The turmoil of Princess Yangping has passed temporarily, and after that, Mingtai County will welcome the spring.

Xia Zhaoyi also turned his head, looking back at the glitz and glamour of the city: "Xu City is so beautiful."

"Yes." Shen Lie said.

All the buildings in Xucheng are simple and easy to see. The handsome and the beautiful are balanced, the long and the short are in harmony, the supporting structure is elegant but simple, and the elegance comes with elegance.

At this time, a few gusts of wind blew through the silver bell, and the sound of the bell was crisp and clear.

Shen Lie looked at the animal eaves on the opposite right.

A string of bells hangs and is tied with the same rope as the bells, and there is also a tasseled wreath fluttering under the eaves.

"I plan to leave tomorrow," Xia Zhaoyi said, "to Xizhou Mansion."

"Brother Ji and I have handed over," Shen Lie said, "Brother Ji is leaving in the afternoon, I will..." He looked sideways at the girl, "Can I go with you?"

"Are you going to Xizhou Mansion?"

"Ah."

Xia Zhaoyi looked into his eyes without asking why.

These few days they are very busy, hardly see each other.

Although Princess Yangping heard that she had left long ago, Xia Zhaoyi wanted to take care of the mess she left behind and the staff that Li Juhui would send later.

The reward for caring about this matter is that she sows the seeds of spring.In her words to Zhili, she will gradually let farmers and small merchants break away from their trust and dependence on government officials and courts, and favor the establishment of large chambers of commerce.

As for the Great Chamber of Commerce, she has written to Hengxiang, and Wang Fengnian and Zhao Ning will each arrange ten people to come over within two months.

The world is limited by culture, and over time, the recognition of the authority of the imperial power is not so easily broken.

But what the master said, what is written in the book, and what I saw with my own eyes when I traveled around the world in the past few years, economic behavior can determine everything.

Starting from Mingtai County, she only needs to plant in spring and work in summer, and harvest in autumn and store in winter, and she has a way to change their high opinion of Li Shi.

"That's great, that's great," Zhili rushed over and sat down next to Shen Lie, "Brother Shen, if you go to Xizhou Mansion, we will go together. Once that master Zhi leaves this time, you will take his place Master Zhi, right?"

"Yeah." Shen Li nodded.

Zhili grinned: "Then, let's have dinner together tonight? Let's practice it for that master. I misunderstood him before. We have been busy these days, and we have never had a proper gathering."

"Shen Lie said just now that he will leave in the afternoon." Xia Zhaoyi said.

"That's right," Zhili frowned lightly, "Well, it's a bit of a pity."

"There will be a long time to come," Shen Lie said, "There will be opportunities in the future."

"I want to see my senior sister's Xia family army, and I also want to see Brother Shen's soldiers and horses," Zhili said, with a brighter smile, "Brother Shen, if your soldiers and horses can help my senior sister, how can my senior sister help you?" How about adding wings to a tiger?"

"Fragmentation." Xia Zhaoyi hugged him lightly, calling him in a reprimanding tone for the first time.

Shen Lie smiled with curved lips, and raised his hand to pat his disjointed shoulder.

"Miss," Li shopkeeper's head poked out from the opening of the roof at this moment, "Miss Ali."

Xia Zhaoyi got up, looked over and said, "What is it?"

Shopkeeper Li climbed up and was so frightened that he almost fell back to the attic.

For those who are afraid of heights, the precipitous cornices erected by the girl are really frightening in their crumbling state.

Shopkeeper Li slowed down, seeing her again, but felt graceful and immortal.

Because she stood up, and because of the wind from above, the girl's hip-length hair fluttered lightly, dancing with the sleeves of her dress in the wind, making her look very beautiful.

"Here's the letter," shopkeeper Li said quietly, "a lot of letters."

"Okay, I'll come right now."

Xia Zhaoyi looked at Shen Lie and Zhili, said something, and walked towards the pavilion.

Zhili wanted to go together, but seeing that Shen Lie had just arrived, he wanted to sit with Shen Lie for a while.

After Xia Zhaoyi got off the wooden ladder, and then left from the stairs of the pavilion, he withdrew his gaze and said to Shen Lie: "Brother Shen, it shouldn't be convenient to stay in the inn all the time. Since we are going to Xizhou Mansion together tomorrow, why don't you Are you going to live in our Qianxue mansion tonight?"

"...I'd better ask Ali."

"So, Big Brother Shen didn't refuse, but he wanted to come to Qianxue Mansion?"

Shen Lie chuckled, nodded without denying it.

"That's great," Zhili said happily, "Brother Shen, I have a lot to say to you! Oh, yes! That day in the private room of Fengyang Building, I asked you to meet alone, but still Remember?"

"You said something happened, and you want to ask me to clarify."

"Yes, I was still thinking about what to do, and I thought about writing to my master first," Zhili said, touching his body, "Oh, I forgot that I didn't bring it out, but it's just right, you are with me tonight. I'll go back to Qianxue Mansion together, and I'll go get the letter again."

"it is good."

"However, although the letter was not brought out, we can discuss the matter with Brother Shen first." Zhili said again.

"Okay." Shen Lie said.

"I'm thinking about where to start."

Shen Lie nodded and waited patiently.

But at this moment, feeling something, Shen Lie looked down at the long street below.

A middle-aged man in ragged clothes walked slowly, holding a basket full of eggs in his hand.

Zhili followed what Shen Lie saw, and also looked at the middle-aged man.

"Huh?" Zhili said, "Why do I feel that this person is a bit weird."

A poor-looking man, but the basket was very finely woven.

And the eggs in the basket are slightly bigger and more numerous.

"If it was for sale, so many eggs would not have happened overnight. It can be seen that he had owned so many chickens a long time ago. He shouldn't be so poor." make sense."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw this person stopped below them, which was the entrance of Sihai Teahouse.

"Huh?" Zhili said again, "This person came to Sihai Teahouse."

Shen Lie frowned lightly, got up and said, "Let's go downstairs and have a look."

"okay."

The buddy saw a man in ragged clothes standing at the door, but he didn't take it seriously.

Seeing that this person hadn't left, the man stepped out and wanted to ask what he needed.
