late Qing Dynasty arrest

Li Guolou said that he met Yelia Wood at the Pace Western restaurant in the afternoon, and everyone will get along in harmony in the future.Bring out all the old things, and dare not hide anything.

Xie Xiuzhu glanced at her and said, "That Yelia is willing to spend money on you, is he richer than me?"

Li Guolou said truthfully: "It can't be compared. They have a fleet of ships, and they always have hundreds of thousands of net worth. However, this kind of lady is the master of the prodigal family, and no matter how much money she has, she will spend it all. Unlike us Qing Dynasty people." I will be diligent and thrifty at home.”

Chen Xiangfang sneered, "Xiaolou, how much money are you going to lie to Yelia?"

Li Guolou winked and said with a smile: "Xiaofang, don't you know me yet? I won't let you go until you fool Yelia, so you two have to be my trustees."

Chen Xiangfang and Xie Xiuzhu looked at each other, and the expressions on their faces relaxed. As long as Li Guolou is not a loser and can live a better life, they can still bear the fox smelling foreign girls.

Seeing that there was an opportunity, Li Guolou once again kissed left and right, coaxing the two grandmas to be happy with sweet words.

Li Guolou took Chen Xiangfang to Pace Western Restaurant, there are western clothes for foreigners, just go home and change later.Xie Xiuzhu didn't have any foreign clothes, so she was anxious to ask Li Guolou to accompany her to buy foreign clothes.When Chen Xiangfang heard that Li Guolou was going to buy clothes with Xie Xiuzhu, she didn't want to stay in Baozhi's room anymore, and wanted to buy new clothes.Now that the management of Baozhifang has been delegated to Qian Shuiping, Chen Xiangfang is becoming more and more like the proprietress, as long as she directs the overall situation.

Li Guolou sighed: "Xiaofang, people will change. Now you and Second Mistress stick together all day long, and your horizons are higher. You don't even blink when you spend money. You won't plan and live your life carefully in the future."

Sitting in Li Guolou's arms, Chen Xiangfang said softly: "Xiaolou, you are lucky. You were born in a rich family. I will live a rich life for the rest of my life. You have to work hard to make money. Me and my second brother Grandma also wants to live in a foreigner’s villa. The house you bought has to be decorated like a foreigner’s, with heating, bathroom, toilet, and a sofa. The bed is better than the current one. We don’t like foreigners’ spring beds.”

Li Guolou said: "You two have more and more scriptures, how long will it take to decorate, and we don't want to get married?"

Xie Xiuzhu raised her voice and said, "Keep it! Why not? Grandma and I will marry you together, at the house where we live."

Li Guolou couldn't sit still any longer, he shook off Chen Xiangfang, stood up and said, "Thanks to you two, that's Wei Mansion, how can I pay homage to him?"

Chen Xiangfang sneered and said: "You are still a person who has drunk foreign ink. You have said that you must have an innovative spirit, hold a wedding that combines Chinese and Western styles, and bake a bakery outside. Don't make a bridal chamber at our house. Just don't do it."

Li Guolou asked: "What the hell are you two doing behind my back? Tell me all about it. Don't take me for a fool."

The two grandmas began to talk about their ideals, everything was carefully considered, and Li Guolou had to agree to it.It doesn't matter if Xie Xiuzhu married Li Guolou one year after her husband died. Xie Xiuzhu is the life of Wangfu, and Li Guolou will live a long life in the future.During the Spring Festival, Xie Xiuzhu will sit beside Li Guolou openly and aboveboard, so that Li Guolou's family will recognize her as the second grandmother.

Li Guolou looked at the two grandmas, they were poor and short-lived, Chen Xiangfang was actually bought by Xie Xiuzhu, there must be many rare treasures hidden in the jewelry box.Chen Xiangfang has lived the life of a rich man, and she never wants to go back to the past. It seems that she and Xie Xiuzhu are very close, because money can make ghosts turn the clock.

Li Guolou couldn't bear it anymore, he laughed and said, "Did you two sleep together these two days?"

Chen Xiangfang and Xie Xiuzhu hugged Li Guolou together, and said softly, "What do you think?"

Li Guolou and the two grandmas spent more than two hours, and the two sides reached a compromise and negotiated various unruly decisions.Finally, one of them had a tongue kiss, and the three walked out of the Cuiyun Pavilion box in a serious manner.

Li Guolou and his two grandmothers had a working lunch in the lobby. Baozhifang recruited five cooks, five handymen, and eighteen waiters and women. Baozhi's room will open in five days.

Li Guolou had no choice but to be forced by several big brothers to open before the Spring Festival. Now is not a good time for restaurants to open, and many restaurants will close in a few days.The social atmosphere at this time is that the whole family gathers at home during the Spring Festival, cooks a lot of dishes at home, sits on the kang to celebrate the Spring Festival happily, and the businessmen have returned to their hometowns instead of staying in the capital.The business of the restaurant is very slow, and the business will not flourish until after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

Li Guolou was eating, and suddenly thought why he didn't see that bazi?So I asked Nabazi's sister Nayan.

Na Yan sighed: "He, there are a lot of things at home, and Wu got into trouble, so he went to rescue him."

As soon as I talked about this and that bastard came, I raised my leg and entered the door, and I was starved to death, and I wanted to drink and eat.

Na Bazi sat opposite Li Guolou, raised his hand and said: "Don't mention a few people, I've been drinking cold water for the past few days and my teeth are stuck, the capital is in chaos, everyone is looking for me for friendship."

Li Guolou asked: "Bazi, what are you busy with?"

That bazi drank half a pot of tea, wiped his mouth and said: "It's not the fault of you guys. Manchurians ran to Yipintang's site to make trouble, occupying a table with a pot of tea and a birdcage, and not letting others do it." Business. Wang Wu didn't even look at people, he just asked the militia to beat people and even arrest them. Didn't my brother Wu also wade into this muddy water? People were beaten and bird cages were smashed , that sparrow also flew away. Fortunately, he thought that he had reported my name, and he was released. As soon as he came out, this kid knew that Wang Wu was behind the instigation, so he made a fuss again? He wanted to be compensated I paid for the doctor’s money, and said that his bird cage was gold. I can only mediate this matter, and I paid all the money in the end. Back the money;;;;;;" The conversation changed, and he said: "But I have taken in a lot of Manchu boys, and now I am also the leader of a militia. Bow! The two eating at that table This is my newly hired servant."

Li Guolou glanced at the two strong men at the next table who were feasting, and said, "Well, are you recruited from the militia?"

The mouth was full of vegetables, puffed up his cheeks, and nodded in recognition.

Li Guolou sighed: "Bazi, ask your brother Na Wu to come to work here, don't work, give him four places, let them dress up brightly every day, drink tea, eat and chat, even if they are betting on the market, they will support them. he."

The bazi glanced at Chen Xiangfang to see if she was unhappy?Seeing that Chen Xiangfang was full of smiles, she smiled awkwardly and said: "My friends are good enough buddies, this useless worm still has iron ass kung fu."

Li Guolou said: "I still have a lot of things to do, I will talk to you alone after you eat, so hurry up and eat."

Nazi took out his gold watch to hold his hand, and said loudly: "It's already 12:30, it's time for a break at noon, we'll talk about it in the afternoon."

"I don't have time to fight with you. The matter of wearing a lice jacket is a big push. It's not like you don't know it. Eat it quickly! I'm leaving soon. I'm not in the capital for a few days. If you have something to do with Baozhi's house, you can ask Wu Defu, he will It's settled."

Na Bazi chuckled and said, "I'd better go to Sister Luo directly, the pillow wind is so powerful."

Luo Yunxia came out from the kitchen, and shouted: "Baby, eat your bachelor noodles, look at the little Lizi foreign girl, you have a big event in your life, do you want me to find it for you?"

Li Guolou glared at Xie Xiuzhu viciously, why did he tell his secret in the kitchen during a meal, and he would be spanked when he returned home.

That stick kicked Li Guolou, and said loudly: "Sister Luo, as long as you don't find me an actor, I want all the innocent girls."

During the break time, everyone in the lobby was chatting. Upstairs, Li Guolou and the bastard hadn't settled the mess. Xie Xiuzhu blushed and said anxiously, "Don't talk about it, little six. Here comes the fish, give me an idea."

Wei Xiaoliu and Wei Xiaoqi came in carrying a basket on a shoulder pole, pulled back the curtain, and inside was a large piece of emerald stone that had been cut with a knife.Chen Xiangfang also came in to watch, but she didn't speak. This is not her business, and she doesn't understand the jade business.

Li Guolou and Na Bazi hurriedly leaned over to look at this emerald stone. This is an uncut Siamese emerald stone. After cutting the jade stone, you can see what is inside the jade stone. Inside is a large piece of bright red color, and there are still some small black spots on the red.

Wei Xiaoliu said: "Godfather, today the jade merchant Zheng Zizi sent a stone for [-] yuan. I have a deal with him. He is willing to sell the minimum [-] yuan. This business is too big. Dare to pick it up, but it was really itchy, so I brought the jade. This piece of jade is well carved, and it is a priceless treasure. But the shape is so big, it is not easy to use a knife, so Zheng Zizi is willing to sell it, and get the money to pull it down. Godfather , Second Mistress, come and make up your mind, do you want to pick it up?"

Li Guolou kept circling and stroking, and Xie Xiuzhu and Na Bazi did the same. The three of them didn't speak, hesitating and not making up their minds.

Xie Xiuzhu looked up at Li Guolou, and said, "The small building is too risky. Even if you buy it, it will be difficult to sell it in the future. The prince is not willing to spend tens of thousands of taels to buy a piece of jade. It is not shaped when it is cut open, and it will be destroyed Given the overall structure, I think it’s fine.”

That Bazi didn't dare to speak, he didn't have the guts yet, 1 taels of silver was an astronomical figure, should he buy jade or not?It's not for him to make the decision.He looked at Li Guolou, do you want to make this bet?

Li Guolou was silent for a long time, then raised his head and smiled and said, "Everyone, we are going to do great things together, think far and wide, and see the future prospects. Since the price is so high, I will buy it and gamble on wealth. After the sculpture is finished, it will be dedicated to the Empress Dowager, wealth and honor lie in the sky, with this sky, we will be rich and honored for a lifetime."

Wei Xiaoliu and the others looked at Xie Xiuzhu, waiting for her to make a final decision. The 1 taels of silver Zhenbaoxuan didn't have that much money, so they wanted to borrow a large sum of money from the bank, that is, the value of the jade bought was more than 1. Two silver coins, after the jade is carved, it will not be sold. When the principal will be recovered, it will depend on Li Guolou's other business to earn it back.How much confidence does Xie Xiuzhu have in Li Guolou?
