Mr. Yangui

Chapter 162 Chapter One Sixty-two
Chang'an City is actually not very far from Feng Yi County. If you have a fast horse, you can get there in a few hours. Because the road is bad and difficult to travel, Li Wuchang and his gang walked for more than a day to get there.

It was already evening at that time, and they were received by an old acquaintance, Yu's servant next to His Royal Highness, and a man who was said to be the manager of Dingmao Bingzhuang, Eunuch Liu.

"Servant Yu? Why is it you?" Li Wuchang was very surprised. Didn't this guy follow the prince every day? Why did he come to this remote place?

"Hello, Mr. Li. His Royal Highness learned that Mr. Li is coming down to work, so he specially asked the younger one to come and make arrangements." The servant Yu was as polite as ever.

Li Wuchang shrugged, secretly thinking that this Lu Xuanyi is really thoughtful.

The waiter Yu finished his politeness and started to talk about business: "If the Neiku Zhuangzi in Fengyi County is managed by the sons of Xungui, it should still be placed under the treasury. The children of Xungui only need to deal with the trivial matters in the village and pay part of the tax to the treasury every year. However, Commander Li greeted His Highness the Crown Prince and said that Mr. Li likes to be more free, so Dingmao Bingzhuang can be separated from the internal treasury and directly hang under the name of Mr. Li."

Li Wuchang raised his eyebrows, and said: "Hang it directly under my name? I heard that although Dingmao Bingzhuang has a small number of people, the place is not small, so..."

Isn't it a little kingdom?

Yu Neishi smiled and said: "Dingmao Bingzhuang is near the northernmost part of Fengyi County. Although the place is not small, there is not much arable land and it is quite barren. His Royal Highness means that Mr. Li can regard it as his own fief. The son also has a title now, and Dingmao Bingzhuang will always belong to Mr. Li in the future, and it can be passed on to future generations. If there are no special circumstances, the court will not take it back, but still have to pay taxes, although compared with other places in Dayan A lot lower, but still not easy.”

Li Wuchang nodded, expressing that he knew it, and was quite satisfied in his heart. Whether it is handled as a fief, the degree of freedom is very high. As for the tax rate being lower than other places, it is also a pleasant surprise.

And as long as Li Wuchang remains loyal to the imperial court and does not commit major crimes such as treason, then Dingmao Bingzhuang will always be named Li, Li Wuchang's Li.

Seeing Li Wuchang nodding, the waiter Yu asked, "Is Mr. Li still satisfied?"

Li Wuchang smiled and said: "Very satisfied, please wait on me inside to express my gratitude to His Royal Highness, I will definitely treat him to a drink when I return to Chang'an City in the future."

The waiter Yu came here just to wait for Li Wuchang's words, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Young master must tell the truth on behalf of Mr. Li. In addition, the younger one has taken care of some trivial matters for Mr. Li in advance. The specific details Mr. Li You can send someone to ask this Eunuch Liu. This is the center of Zhuangzi. The land is relatively flat and the terrain is relatively high. Most of the houses of the Zhuangzi are built on the mountainside, and there is a certain distance from here. too far."

After a pause, he continued: "That's about it. Mr. Li, do you think there is anything else you need?"

Li Wuchang thought for a while and said, "I know it's hard work here. If I want to buy some supplies, such as food and medicinal materials, is there a more convenient channel? Yu Neishi probably knows that this place is far away from the official road. It's not easy to go."

Yu Neishi smiled and said: "This is really not easy to handle, but please rest assured, Mr. Li, as long as you have silver, it is not difficult to purchase materials. You can buy them from the city, or directly go to Beidi County or Hedong County to buy them. His Royal Highness has sent someone I have already said hello to the prefects of those two counties, and they will give a discount on the price, and they will also send someone to deliver it. You only need to pay a little delivery fee. For specific details, Mr. Li can still send someone to communicate with this Eunuch Liu. "

So thoughtful.

Li Wuchang shook his head and smiled wryly.

Could it be that he is really a sweet potato? This Lu Xuanyi is really amazing.

Li Wuchang smiled and said: "Thank you for the servant, I don't have any problems now, I think it's getting late, or the servant can stay in my owner's mansion for dinner, of course, I didn't bring the chef this time , let me handle the spoon myself, it can be regarded as entertaining old friends, I still have a few skills in cooking."

The servant Yu did not refuse, and said: "Then thank you, Mr. Li."

"Chang Ping and Fat Bear took the brothers down to settle down. Brother Xun and Ming Lun entertained Eunuch Liu for me. Desheng Haozi followed me. Wait for everyone to come and taste my handicraft. If you don't mind the servant, Just follow me to the kitchen to chat, tell jokes or something." Li Wuchang quickly ordered.

The crowd said yes.

Fat Xiong and Zhai Changping took a few brothers down to resettle, unloading, placing horses, arranging rooms, and familiarizing themselves with the environment. Zhao Xun and Jiang Minglun enthusiastically dragged Eunuch Liu to the side hall to familiarize themselves with various details.

Lu Desheng and Cao Hao followed Li Wuchang to entertain the waiter, and the four of them came to the kitchen together to do it themselves.

Looking at Li Wuchang, who was quick in his hands and feet, Yu Neishi felt infinite emotion in his heart, and he knew more about Li Wuchang's easy-going.

Is this that dude?
Without a trace of airs, he cooks by himself, and gets along well with his subordinates, looking like a family.

Half an hour later, a dozen or so people gathered at a table in the brightly lit hall, having a feast.

The dishes are not exquisite, but the quantity is rough. There are all kinds of chicken, duck, fish, game, wild vegetables, steamed buns, noodles, and rice. The wine is ordinary turbid wine, and there is also crude tea.

"Come on, everyone join me in a toast to my servant and Eunuch Liu. Today is so smooth thanks to the two of you." Li Wuchang raised his glass and told his brothers.

All toast.

Fortunately, the waiter Yu said that he was used to it, but that Eunuch Liu was much more flustered, he had never seen such a kind son brother.

"The waiter Yu and Eunuch Liu are both busy people. They can worry about Mr. Li's trivial matters. Mr. Li is very grateful and can't repay you. You will all hang out in Chang'an City from now on. Mr. Li doesn't have many friends in Chang'an City. If you two go out of the palace to do business in the future, you can visit Dongli Restaurant, and I can give you a [-]% discount." Li Wuchang laughed.

The inner servant was excited, not because of the discount, because no matter what time, everyone wanted to curry favor with the prince, and as a person around the prince, he never gave money for eating and drinking after going out to do errands.

He was excited because Li Wuchang actually regarded him as an ordinary good friend. He had heard that Li Wuchang gave a [-]% discount to good friends.

He has no friends, not a single one.

Eunuch Liu is very strange, this Mr. Li still needs to serve in the house to give money?Isn't it free?
However, because of his humble status, he didn't ask much, and thanked Li Wuchang along with his servant.

Although the dishes were not very delicate, they tasted good. Everyone ate with gusto. After eating for more than half an hour, the waiter saw that it was getting late, so he took Eunuch Liu down. He was going back to Chang'an tomorrow.

As for Eunuch Liu, he was the previous administrator, and he still needs to stay for a day or two to familiarize himself with the specific situation of Zhuangzi with Li Wuchang.

After seeing off the two father-in-laws, Li Wuchang wanted to understand the situation first. Of course, he still needs to understand the owner's mansion first.

The yard is huge and there are many rooms, this is Li Wuchang's first impression.

Not to mention a dozen people, even dozens or hundreds of people can be accommodated.

The architectural style is very rough. There are several rows of rooms inside. There is a rather exquisite suite at the bottom. It should be dedicated to the owner. It is clean and tidy. The furniture, beds, and quilts are all brand new. It seems that a lot of money has been spent. thought.

There are several living rooms outside, next to it are the kitchen, miscellaneous rooms, warehouses, and stables. Outside is a large flat land, which is a bit like a school yard. An impermanent mind.

It's just that the building has only one floor, so it's a pity that you can't climb high and look far.

After the brothers all went down to rest, Li Wuchang came to the school grounds outside alone, lying on a push of thatch, looking at the moon in the sky, with complicated feelings in his heart.

The day before yesterday, I was still lying in Caiyunju's gentle residence, and suddenly came to a completely unfamiliar backcountry, and I don't know if I can quickly adapt to the situation.

In the past, there were very few people under him, and it was enough to take care of them casually, but now they have to manage the food and drink of more than 1000 people, and deal with bandits, which is a heavy responsibility.

Without any hard power, I am a bastard, why should I speak in the Li family, and why should I provoke the Zhang family.

Although he is now a Viscount, a bastard is a bastard. In the hearts of the Li family, Li Wuchang will never be able to compare with his elder brother Li Wufeng. Li Wuchang is very sure of this.

Only one step at a time.

If he can help a group of common people live a good life, that is what Li Wuchang is willing to do. He is not a saint, but since he has come here to be the owner of the village, of course he should treat those people in the village as his own.

See if you can gradually grow your team by the way.

clap clap...

The sound of rubbing stones sounded.

Someone came in over the wall.

Li Wuchang stood up and followed the sound, and after a while, he found a sneaky black figure jumping down from the wall. Judging by the movements, he probably didn't know martial arts.

The visitors also found Li Wuchang.

The moonlight was very strong, and the two could see each other's appearance clearly.

The other party was a half-grown child, fifteen or sixteen years old, all in tatters, thin and tense, with a sack in his hand.

Grandma is a bear, isn't she a thief?

"Who are you?" Li Wuchang asked, not feeling nervous, the other party was most likely the son of a certain farmer's family, and he probably came to steal something while it was dark.

Li Wuchang guessed right, that child is indeed a child of a farmer's family, and there is no food in the house. I heard that a new owner came today, and he wanted to steal some food while everyone was asleep, but he didn't expect Li Wuchang. It's so late and I'm still lying on the thatched pile in the school yard, thinking about life in front of the moonlight.

"I... I... went the wrong way." The child was very nervous, and said something tremblingly to Li Wuchang, and he was about to climb over the wall.

"Don't be nervous, I'm here to steal things too." Li Wuchang was amused and decided to help the child.

The child immediately turned his head when he heard the words, looked at Li Wuchang, his expression became excited.

He was so nervous that he didn't notice Li Wuchang's clothes.

With Li Wuchang's attire, how could he be a thief.

"Come on, I know where the warehouse is. The new owner of this shitty day is a kid from a rich family. A lot of grain has been moved into the warehouse recently. I just saw it. Let's steal a bag each." Li Wuchang said mysteriously.

The child nodded, hummed, and followed Li Wuchang sneakily.

The sound of breaking wind sounded.

Zhao Xun and Jiang Minglun moved quickly, they rushed over after hearing the movement, and stopped when they saw Li Wuchang sneaking around with a child.

Li Wuchang also noticed the two of them, secretly winked at them, and made a motion of silence.

Both Jiang Minglun and Zhao Xun were a little puzzled.

This is so stunned, which song is this sung?
