Chapter 237 Old friends in the new house ()

Yang Liang felt two glances coming from behind, and it seemed that Li Juhong was glaring at him.

As promised, you don’t think about tea or food, so that’s what you are like.

From Yang Liang's back, you can't see the embarrassment on his face. Yang Liang raised his head and saw a gloating smile on Princess Cuiwei's face.

Why do you treat me like this? I am your good brother.

Yang Liang coughed awkwardly. Since Li Juhong didn't say anything, he had to pretend that nothing happened.

"I would also like to thank Your Highness Princess. I don't know where that house is. Let's hurry up and take a look while it's still dark."

"I know you are impatient. I have already arranged a carriage outside. Qiu Yu, just accompany your master to have a look." Princess Cuiwei said.

Qiu Yu stood in the corner and bowed respectfully.

Hearing that Princess Cuiwei didn't plan to follow, Yang Liang was relieved. If he continued to stay here, he didn't know how many bad things she would say about him.

He led Li Juhong out of the yard and saw a carriage parked on the street.

The driver was a middle-aged man in his thirties with a beard.

"Little Centaur Mountain, Her Royal Highness the Princess has already ordered me to follow Mr. Li from now on."

Yang Liang knew that this was the coachman given to him by Princess Cuiwei. Although this woman stabbed him with ill intentions, she was not bad to him.

Several people got on the carriage, Ma Shan raised his whip, and the carriage drove slowly.

In the carriage, Yang Liang, Li Juhong and Qiu Yu were speechless, each with their own embarrassment.

After a very long period of time, the carriage finally stopped, and the coachman Mashan's words rang out from outside: "Master, we have arrived."

Yang Liang almost couldn't wait to lift the curtain, and first saw a magnificent gate with a horse-mounting stone and a horse-tying post in front of the door.

In front of the gate, there was a row of people, and a man about forty years old, wearing a robe, stood in the middle.

After seeing Yang Liang, he immediately came over, placed a bench on the ground, and said respectfully:

"I have met the master. The youngest is Liu Wanwan. Her Royal Highness the Princess has given instructions. From now on, I will serve the master."

"Princess, which princess?" Yang Liang asked curiously.

"The master is joking, of course it is Her Royal Highness the eldest princess."

"Oh."

Yang Liang pretended to be suddenly enlightened and said: "Okay, now take us in and have a look."

The three of them got off the carriage, and Liu Wanwan introduced the house to Yang Liang and introduced the layout of the house.

After passing through the gate, there is a screen wall. Behind the screen wall is a spacious yard, where the front hall where guests usually receive guests is also located.

Behind the front yard is the back garden, which is decorated with small bridges, flowing water, and rockery corridors.

Yang Liang was also amazed. He thought it was just an ordinary house, but it was much more exquisite than he imagined.

"This was originally the study room of Her Royal Highness the Princess. Her Royal Highness often met friends here through literature. Because she knew that I was a talented scholar, I left this place to you."

Liu Wanwan said: "Sir, there is a courtyard behind the garden where the servants live. Do you want to take a look?"

"That's all."

Yang Liang waved his hand and said, "I'm a little tired. Let's look back slowly."

"Everything is according to the master's orders." Liu Wanwan knew that although Yang Liang did not have an official position yet, he would definitely become famous in the future, so he could take advantage of it in advance.

Yang Liang returned to the front hall. As soon as he sat down, a servant served tea.

Liu Baiwan said: "Master, there is still some time now. Would you like to ask your servants to come and meet you? Your Highness has arranged for you a gardener, a bearer, a cook, a tailor, a nurse, and a maid and book boy to serve you."

Yang Liang felt a little dizzy and asked, "How many people are there in total?"

Liu Baiwan bowed and said, "Including the villain, there are thirty-two people in total."

Yang Liang couldn't help but let out a breath of cold air. Princess Yushu arranged it very well, even though Li Juhong had two maids at her side.

He looked around and lowered his voice: "Who pays these people?"

Liu Wanwan was startled, then smiled naturally: "Now it's all money given by Her Royal Highness. They are all the master's people. If the master is willing to give them a bowl of rice, it is a great kindness. If you don't want to pay them wages, , they didn’t dare to say anything.”

Yang Liang didn't expect that he would suddenly change into an evil master.

He coughed lightly and said: "It's impossible without giving money. How can we win people's hearts like this? I'll give you some money later. If you reward them, can it be regarded as a meeting gift?"

Liu Baiwan immediately knelt on the ground and said: "Master is kind, I will thank you for them first."

"Get up and talk. There don't need to be so many rules here." Yang Liang said, "I still have something to ask you. Raising such a group of people is also a huge expense. How do people usually deal with it."

Liu Baiwan said: "I am already the number one scholar now. When I get an official position after a while, the court will give me a salary."

"With the salary from the imperial court, I'm afraid I won't be able to support so many people."

Liu Wanwan nodded: "If you are a Beijing official, you will naturally have little luck, but once you are sent to a foreign post, you will make money every day, have the filial piety of the people below, and consume the usual routine.

In the past few days, officials from the capital should invite me to a banquet. They often prepare a small gift, which is also a source of income.

In a few days, rich households in the city will come to visit and transfer some fields to the master's name. As the master, the farmland under his name does not need to be taxed. "

Liu Wanwan used to work in the hands of Princess Yushu, so he was naturally versatile. Princess Yushu sent him here with the intention of supervising Yang Liang.

He calculated with Yang Liang that although Yang Liang was only half an official now, his usual income was tens of thousands of taels a year.

With this amount of money, it is more than enough to support a family, and you can also support an outhouse, and usually go to the brothel and hang out when you have nothing to do.

Yang Liang suddenly realized that it was better to be an official and make money faster than being a thief.

If you can't help it, you will give up your deputy position as a thief and focus on being a good official.

Yang Liang coughed lightly and said, "Thank you, Butler Liu, for your advice. Otherwise, I'll just have a black eye and I'll have to rely on you more in the future."

Liu Wanwan bowed and saluted: "Master, what you said is really embarrassing me. When you work for the master, you must be loyal."

"I'm tired, you can retreat first."

"Yes."

After the crowd dispersed, Yang Liang and Li Juhong came to the back hall. Li Juhong pinched her fingers and said with uneasiness on her face: "Erlang, otherwise I'd better leave. Your place is really scary."

Yang Liang had already seen some of the world, and he was barely able to hold his own. He said, "What are you talking about? This capital city is like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den. Don't you worry that I'm here alone."

"Isn't the little girl accompanying you?" Li Juhong said sourly.

"That's all just a show. We are our own people." Yang Liang said, "As you just saw, things here are very complicated. I still have to rely on you to take care of the money box for me."
