Chapter 387 Farm Renovation

Jin Xuan hurriedly said: "I figured it out, the land doesn't cost money, but the budget is at least 20 taels of silver."

"So much?" Liuli didn't calculate carefully, she was stunned when she heard the number at first, and she pondered for a moment and said, "I don't have the 20 taels you mentioned, but 9 to [-] taels is fine, how about you first?" Set aside a piece of land to do it. When I get loose, I will invest money."

Du Rui listened by the side, glanced at Qi Yunhao, and said, "Jin Xuan's idea doesn't exist in Beijing yet. Since we want to be the first one, we might as well just start it. If the budget is 20 taels, 2 taels For one share, Yizhen gets four shares, and I can also get two shares."

Qi Yunhao rubbed his nose and said, "All my money is with Yizhen. However, I can recruit the youngest into the group. Li Xing, go and call the third master over."

Qi Yunke came, and he nodded immediately when he heard about this. Apart from drinking some wine, he has no bad habits, so he hasn't touched the money rewarded for meritorious deeds. He heard that he can also invest in shares for trading. It was Liuli who was the boss again, and immediately said: "I can also sell a share."

Among the ten shares, Liuli has four shares, Du Rui has two shares, Qi Yunke has one share, and there are three shares.Du Rui called Nie Jue over again. Lu Muyang had been to Dongjiao Zhuangzi, and when he heard that it was going to be rebuilt to make a profit, he immediately pestered Nie Jue to follow him and bought two shares.In the end, there was one strand left, because I couldn't think of anyone for a while, so I hung there temporarily.

But with 14 taels, you can start to act, and then start to discuss the matter of profit sharing.Du Rui is worthy of being a Tanhualang, and he already has a clear account in his heart, "Profit shares are slightly different from investment shares. Investment shares are ten shares, so the profit has to be calculated in this way. Although Jin Xuan didn't invest any money, he will also be responsible It is a business operation, so half of the profit has to be deducted as his reward. Besides, this land is from Yizhen, so it can be counted as one more share, and her five shares, and then we will pay according to the proportion of investment. distribute."

After thinking for a moment, the shareholders unanimously passed the resolution.

It happened that the dowry servants of Princess Ye of Hejia Village arrived at the mansion the next day, so Liuli pulled out those young, strong and capable people to help Jin Xuan carry out the project, and then the remaining women and Confucians stayed in Chaoqingtang.

Liu Li was secretly surprised that although these people were of different ages, after living away from the palace for so many years, they still had the air of being from a wealthy family. It is said that saluting in front of Qi Yunhao and Liuli is not the same as saluting between King Dingbei and Mei family, and there are differences when saluting between King Dingbei and Mei family respectively. The etiquette is completely engraved in their minds.This virtually made Liuli's admiration for Princess Ye even deeper.

Two days before Qi Yunke's wedding, Ji Jiaoer found out about the whereabouts of Widow Li. It turned out that she no longer worked as a hired worker in a restaurant, but instead started a business of pimping prostitutes. She lived with her two children in the Green Plum Lane, rented, when Ji Jiaoer went, this widow was being chased to ask for rent, she had sex with the landlord with her hips on her hips, and was turned upside down by the landlord, and then scolded the landlord in various ways, finally the landlord couldn't bear it anymore, Throw her out and throw her out.

Ji Jiaoer was afraid that she would not be found again when she turned around, so she pretended to be an old acquaintance of the Marquis of Dongyang, and went forward to pay her rent, and at least let her live again.

After hearing this, Liuli dismissed Jigeng, and then wrote a letter of seal and departure, and asked Yuegui to send it to Jing Zhaoyin Chen Hui for affixing the seal, and then sent it to Mafu to Minhua.

She wanted Ma Weiqing and Min Hua to be separated without any effort. Because Chen Hui already knew that Qi Zhengyu's letting go of his daughter was a secret plan made by Qi Yunhao and the others. Now he is respectful to the people in Qifu, and he is also to Lu Zhao. Loyalty is uncompromising, now Liuli just asks him to stamp him, how can he say anything else?Even if there is no such relationship, he must seal this seal.

Liuli asked Yuegui to give the document to Min Hua instead of Ma Weiqing, just to see how firm she was in her decision to leave Ma Weiqing. If she was reluctant, she would definitely not give it to Ma Weiqing, and Liuli would treat it as nothing.If she gave it, Liuli would naturally have other plans.

The next day when Liuli was in the banquet hall watching the people setting up the banquet tables, Ji Jiaoer came to tell her: "Mr. Ma is here, please see the princess outside."

Liu Li said: "Where is Second Gu's grandma?"

"I took my two children out of the house this morning, and now I live in the posthouse."

So I gave Ma Weiqing the divorce papers!Liuli hurriedly said: "She is a woman with a child, how can she live outside? Go and get her out!" She was so angry that Min Hua still treats her as an outsider until now, and refuses to believe that she really took her out. As her older sister, she always thought she was trying to save face, but she didn't know that if she didn't have this kind of thought, why would she need to save face with her?

Kikyo paused for a moment, then said, "Where should I send it when I pick it up?"

Liuli also hesitated, it is not suitable to come to the palace, although she has a small house, but it is still in the south of the city, separated by half the capital, it is extremely inconvenient to travel.Then he said: "Let's send it to Master Xu's first. The wife of the master usually has no one to talk to, so it's good to be a companion." She had to hang her up for a few days and see her again, so that she would know who was true to her It's better, otherwise, if she keeps putting her hot face on her cold butt, wouldn't it be annoying?

"What about Uncle Ma?" Ji Jiaoer said again.

Liuli waved her hand impatiently, "Let him fight wherever he comes from!"

She is so busy here, how can she care about whether he comes or not?
The entire banquet hall was fully arranged the day before the ceremony, and the next morning, only the auditorium was left to be decorated.There is a rule for this, don't worry, Liuli should be busy with Qi Yunhao and Qi Yunjing to welcome the guests.

Although the banquet was held at night, it was also held during the day, and some people who were friendly with each other came to the house early.The people who received the invitation today were all the top dignitaries in Beijing. Perhaps it was because of the restrictions on the number of people that they received this invitation, so many people were secretly looking forward to whether the invitation would vote or not. to your own door.Those who didn't receive it could not help but regret secretly, but all the faces of those who attended the meeting today were full of joy, the male guests talked loudly, and the female relatives were also very tactful and generous.

Although only 48 tables were set up, there were hundreds of them. King Dingbei and Qi Yunhao were in charge of the male guests. I looked over the hall.Liuli and Mei's family were naturally responsible for entertaining the female guests, and King Dingbei saw that Liuli was busy with reception and listening to people's responses, so he pointed Qi Mulan to her and said, "Follow your sister-in-law to fight."

Liuli's boss was unwilling, but she didn't want to lose the face of the palace in front of so many people, so she had to laugh silently, and had to agree.She was counting on Qi Mulan to raise objections by herself, but after waiting for a long time, she remained silent, and instead retreated behind her to prepare to follow, so she was also speechless.

So wherever Liuli went, she would follow behind her tail, and Liuli would ignore her after walking around twice, as long as she was not there, and when she went to the big kitchen, Qi Mulan saw that she was surrounded by four or five people to answer, and there were people chasing and asking her. Asking for the pass card and key, he said timidly: "Where is the pass card, I will go get it."

Liuli really couldn't move away, but it happened that Rui'er and the others were all busy, so she glanced at her and said nothing.

Qi Mulan said anxiously: "Just take something, how can I do anything to you?"

"Why did the eldest girl talk to the concubine? Where did the etiquette go?" Next to Dingbei Wangxin, the maid Li Xie, who was invited by Dingbei Wangxin to be Qi Mulan's teacher, spoke.

Qi Mulan immediately lowered her head, looking at it with her mouth flattened, she was about to cry.

Liuli sighed, so as not to make others look like she had bullied her, she took out a bracelet she often wore from her wrist, handed it to her, and said, "Take this to find Yuegui, let her Give you the pass card and the key." Qi Mulan, like Mei, is a street rat in the hearts of everyone in Chaoqingtang, and if she doesn't give her something, Yuegui will never believe her.

Qi Mulan took the bracelet with both hands, and hurried away.

The pass card was quickly brought, and Qi Mulan followed Liuli around again.Liuli would order her around when she couldn't call anyone. Although she still didn't talk to Liuli much, she gradually became lively.

After lunch, I have to accompany these guests around.Fortunately, the palace has a huge back garden, with everything in the mountains, lakes, winding corridors and open pavilions. Liuli also asked people to prepare couch and thin quilts in the scattered pavilions for resting, and also asked people to put the quilts in various places inside. They all prepared snacks and tea, and sent people to wait on them everywhere, so in this way, Liuli had a period of relaxation.

At sunset, Liuli saw that almost all the guests had arrived, and Qi Yunke had already set off to meet the relatives, so she walked around to the upper room to accompany the guests.Although respecting customers, there are many people who bowed to her and saluted along the way. The crowd saw Mrs. Yongan Hou and Mrs. Zhan Shifu standing under the red corridor talking with Mrs. Zhan Shifu, so they walked over and laughed with the two of them. : "Can the two ladies have tea?"

Mrs. Zhan Shi hurriedly bowed down to say blessings.Mrs. Yong'an Hou is the mother of the sisters of the Luo family, and she is also old friends with Liuli. Seeing her, she said, "Don't talk about tea, let me tell you, I heard that the eldest princess and fourth princess will also come today!"

"really?"

Liuli was really astonished, she posted posts in both mansions, but these people are real royal family and nobles, they seldom come out to the banquet in person, they usually appoint their daughter-in-law to come, like today's Prince Yu's mansion - now It should be called Chenjiang Prince's Mansion, because Prince Yu died of illness at the beginning of the year.The ones who came to the Chen Jiang Palace were the little concubine Qi and his son and his wife.

Du Rui came in the morning, Liuli thought he was the representative, but I never expected that the two eldest princesses would come to the banquet in person!

"Then there is still a fake?" Mrs. Yong'anhou said with a smile: "Qifang is already on the way here with the two eldest princesses!"
