Chapter 9: A trap
(Everyone makes sense, so I changed the name of Boss Tu to Tu Lichun.)
After accompanying Mrs. Wang for a regular breakfast, Li Ze wiped his mouth, stood up and lowered his hands and said to Mrs. Wang: "Mother, the autumn harvest has just passed, and the rent in Liujia Village has not been collected yet. There are some changes in the middle. Where will my son go to take a look."
Mrs. Wang put down the soup bowl in her hand and looked at him coldly: "You have grown up, do whatever you should do, don't tell me."
Li Zeran was so stupid that he was only fourteen or fifteen years old. In his previous life, he could still act coquettishly in his mother's arms, but here he had grown up.
After saying this, Mrs. Wang stood up and ignored Li Ze anymore. Instead, she went straight to the back hall. After a while, the monotonous and rhythmic wooden fish sounded, and the sound of Mrs. Wang chanting scriptures was mixed in between.
Li Ze sighed, looked at Xia Zhu who was standing aside, and whispered: "Take good care of your mother."
Xia Zhu nodded silently.
After calming down, Li Ze returned to his Mingshu Garden.
"Master, how many days will you go out this time?" Xia He opened the wardrobe and looked at Li Ze inquiringly.
"It's going to be three or five days!" Li Ze thought for a while and said.
"You should take me with you, otherwise who will serve you?" Xia He said: "Mr. Tu is clumsy, afraid that pouring a cup of tea will burn my hands, and even pigs will despise the rice you cook."
Li Ze laughed loudly and stretched out his finger to bounce Xia He and said, "Don't slander Tu Lichun like this, he is my right-hand man."
"I know that Mr. Tu has to use it in front of him, but I am different from him. I can't do what he can do, but he can't do what I can do!" Xia He pouted.
"You stay at home to look after the house, and then sort out the accounts of this quarter reported by Yixingtang. See if there is anything missing or something strange." Li Ze said while watching Xia He pack his clothes for him.
"Yes, my master, I just looked at the general account of Yixingtang this quarter. It was indeed a bit strange, which was quite different from my expectations." Xia He straightened his waist, "Don't let me find out any problems."
After saying this, the originally docile girl had a sharp look in her eyes.
Li Ze smiled faintly. Over the past few years, he had been teaching this little girl modern accounting knowledge and accounting methods. Compared with the simple accounting method of this era, he was a lot higher. If Xia He wanted to make fake accounts, the people outside could not see it at all, but if others wanted to play tricks in front of her, it would be that Lu Ban was just showing off his ugly appearance.
"Three years ago, we bought a stake in Yixingtang and saved the dying business. We took the big part. Over the past three years, Yixingtang has developed rapidly and made a lot of money. Some people are jealous. "Li Ze said: "If it's not too much, just give it a warning. If there are other inappropriate thoughts, let Tu Er come forward."
Xia He nodded: "I hope Mr. Tu will not come forward."
Li Ze grinned and walked straight to the study room separated from the bedroom by a wall. He grabbed the bookshelf on one wall and pulled it hard. The bookshelf immediately slid a little forward, revealing a dark room inside.
Xia He also walked in.
In the middle of the dark room is a desk with stacks of books on it, and against the desk are boxes one after another, while on the walls are full of various weapons.
Li Ze walked to the wall, looked at the weapons for a while, and couldn't help but grin.
These weapons are also his masterpiece in recent years. The iron shop at home has improved its iron smelting level in recent years. The quality of the weapons he made is far superior to that of the contemporary weapon. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as cutting iron like mud. Of course, this is also thanks to his guidance. Although he does not have enough professional knowledge in this area, he always knows some simple ways to improve the quality of steel. Even if it cannot be applied on a large scale, the little manpower he has slowly accumulated, but his subordinates are almost equipped with the same handicrafts.
He reached out and touched a horizontal knife on the wall. After thinking about it, he still couldn't take it off. In the end, he just took a small folding crossbow and put it in his arms, and walked out of the study.
Tu Lichun had already been waiting outside.
When they walked to the front yard, several other guards had prepared horses, and the group turned over and left the village, and walked all the way outside the village.
Liang Han hurriedly stepped into Mo Xiangju, looking at Gongsun Changming, who put his long legs on the stone table, curled up in a wide rattan chair, holding a book in one hand and holding a small teapot in the other, and said hurriedly: "That master is out."
Gongsun Changming rolled his eyes, "He went out when he went out, what's up to us?"
Liang Han sat opposite him and said with a look of excitement: "Don't you think this young master is mysterious? And is it very interesting? Tu Lichun was a luxurious person before, and he actually obeyed in front of this young master. Moreover, the people in this farm actually respected this young master in great awe of this young master. This is incredible."
"What do you want to do?" Gongsun Changming put down the book in his hand, looked at Liang Han, and asked vigilantly.
"I want to see what secrets he has outside? Is there such a thing in the things you said before? If it really happens, haha, that would be interesting." Liang Han said.
Gongsun Changming looked at Liang Han speechlessly, and after a while, he said, "Why do you remember the first half of what I said and forget the second half?"
"What else did you say later?"
"I also said that you can be at peace with yourself. We are just staying for a while. Don't go to the bottom of the ground, otherwise we might have a place for the chasm in the back mountain." Gongsun Changming said. "Curious to kill the cat, you should be honest, so as not to drag me down."
Liang Han said with a dark face: "I have been dragged down by you in my life so much. Are you treating me like this?"
Gongsun Changming let out a loud breeze, and a big mouthful of tea spewed out, pouring Liang Han on the opposite side on his face.
Liang Han, who turned into a chicken, did not erase the water droplets, but just looked at Gongsun Changming hatefully.
Gongsun Changming sighed. It seemed that he could not hold back his curiosity. I hope this kid would be more lucky and not fall into that master's hands, otherwise things would be in trouble.
The autumn was clear and the air was refreshing. Li Ze drove his horse excitedly. He was also tortured him to death. During that time, the inner side of his thighs was bleeding every day, and the old wounds had not yet gone, and new injuries arose again. Every time he went back, Xia He would cry and apply medicine for him. Li Ze, who was crying for his parents, had to get better, and then practiced equestrian without hesitation.
He wanted to practice equestrian well, not to be able to gallop on the battlefield one day. What he thought was that if he practiced equestrian well, one day in the future, he would be able to run faster when he ran away.
In order to escape, he was able to afford to pay. In the horse gallery in the village, he spared no expense to buy several magical war horses for breeding. Now, several of the foals have come out. Although they can't ride them yet, they see that their physique is not comparable to ordinary horses. Even Tu Lichun was jealous and had already booked one for Li Ze.
Fourteen years old, in his previous life, he was indeed an age to act spoiled with his parents, but in this era, as Mrs. Wang said, he was indeed an adult. At this age, he was a married man, and was a errand-run servant in the front yard of his own village. He was already married last year. When his parents and servants from the village came to report to Li Ze, he was speechless for a long time. Of course, he finally rewarded a lot of money.
At the age of fourteen, in this era, he actually wants to start a family.
And myself is an exception. First of all, I never thought of asking for a wife at this age, and secondly, Li Ze is also a guy whose father and mother do not love him. He is fourteen years old, and it seems that my parents have forgotten that they should ask for a wife for him. Of course, Li Ze is also happy to see that he has not grown up yet, so he can't hurt his vitality at such a young age.
"Master, do you think that Liang Han is really good at coming?" Tu Lichun was a little confused.
"Gongsun Changming, a dead old man, is very cunning, but Liang Han, hehe, I just need to look at his eyes and know that he is a guy who is so curious that he can't even control himself. In addition, he is smart enough to live in our village for more than two months and must have found many different flavors. It would be strange if a person like him doesn't find out what he wants to do!" Li Ze sneered: "If you don't hold on to this guy, how can you bargain with the bad old man Gongsun Changming?"
Observing the face and looking at people's hearts is Li Ze's strengths in his previous life.
"It would be better to kill and bury the grave with one knife, and then destroy it." Tu Lichun said viciously.
