Chapter 188: The End Is Coming (4)

"You are bold... I am the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue in the dynasty, Lu Boguang!" The man in the official robe reported to his home, which was so good.

Yan Yunting sneered, pulled away the bacon and rice, took out the purse, and then let go of Lu Boguang, and said, "Now, get out of here!"

"You dare to stop the imperial officials from doing things, you-"

"choke!"

Yan Yunting pulled out his gallbladder, pointed his sword at Lu Boguang's throat, and said coldly: "I'll count three times. If you don't get out of here, I'll cut off your head."

"You...you..." The tip of the sword was only a slight difference from Lu Boguang's throat, and he didn't even dare to swallow his saliva.

"three."

"two."

"Boy, I remember you, wait for me!"

Lu Boguang said a harsh word and fled.

Yan Yunting put away his sword, leaned over and picked up a pile of wine with broken pieces, raised his head and poured it down, sighing: "What a pity for two jars of good wine..."

Ning Ruowei happily leaned forward, her eyes full of excitement: "Are you back?"

Yan Yunting glanced at Ning Ruowei coldly, without saying a word, and pulled Xiao Li into the courtyard.

"Yan Yunting, you must have misunderstood. Things are not what you thought... Lord Lu just came to collect taxes." Ning Ruowei caught up and explained.

Yan Yunting still ignored it.

Ning Ruowei stopped him with a long hand and explained in a quick way: "It is because our houses are too taxed, so I gave him some benefits. This is all human nature."

Yan Yunting said coldly: "This is not human nature, but you are used to being humble to the powerful."

Ning Ruowei bit her lip, "You are not in charge of the company and don't know that the firewood and rice are expensive. Now there is nothing in Peacock Building, so I can only do this."

"Nothing? You have nothing to say to me at such a large house?" Yan Yunting shook his head disappointed: "I suddenly feel that it is not worth giving you so many things. You still haven't changed your original flattery."

"Why are you so stingy? You're just giving him some things?"

"But what I heard is that you have to send yourself to your door, celebrate his birthday, and dance for him? I'm afraid there's more than that?"

"What do you mean!"

"It's not interesting."

Yan Yunting bypassed Ning Ruowei. Ning Ruowei quickly grabbed her, her eyes full of guilt: "Can I be wrong? I will never do this again."

Yan Yunting shook her hand away, "You are not wrong, you just have different positions, I can understand." After that, he sighed deeply and walked quickly towards the deep house.

Ning Ruowei bit her lip, feeling wronged, blamed herself, and was sad, and soon shed tears.

...

"Sir Yan, you are jealous of her, right?" Guo Xiaoli asked after following him.

"Yes, how can I not be jealous when she flatters other men?" Yan Yunting admitted quite generously.

"You are jealous of her, which means you like her, and I feel really guilty when I look at her."

"Is that right? Then ignore her for a while and just treat it as punishing her."

"Tsk tsk... You are so willing to give up on such a beautiful sister."

"Tell the truth, there are dozens of women like her behind me."

"I don't believe it."

"Don't you believe it? I howled and they came out immediately."

Yan Yunting cleared his throat and shouted: "I'm back!"

The sound echoed in the empty house. Guo Xiaoli opened his eyes wide and looked forward, but after a while, no one came out.

Yan Yunting was also puzzled, could other women not live in this house?

"Bit, tick..." A sound of footsteps came from the distant courtyard corridor, followed by bright lanterns.

"Wow... it's really a bunch of national beauty!" Guo Xiaoli was stunned.

Qingyan and the other female relatives of Peacock Tower rushed over quickly when they heard the sound. When she saw Yan Yunting, she stopped and only opened her eyes wide, without any doubt.

Yan Yunting raised an eyebrow at her, "What? You haven't seen me for only half a year, so you can't recognize me?"

Qing Yan then ran to Yan Yunting and circled around him with excitement: "You... are you really Yan Yunting? Why have you become so strong? It seems that you have grown taller!"

After washing the marrow and refining the body, the bones become larger, the body becomes larger, and everything becomes larger.

Yan Yunting poked Qing Yan's forehead with his hand and smiled, "You have lost a lot of weight again."

Qingyan was wearing a coarse cloth dress and tied up with her hair high. There was some dust on her fair face. Not only her, but other women all looked dirty.

"What? Are you going to dig the coal back? They all look like big cats." Yan Yunting couldn't help laughing.

Qing Yan couldn't help but turn red on her cheeks. She quickly wiped it with her sleeves, but the dust became more and more evenly, and she looked like a big cat. She was so playful and cute:

"No, we are unloading the beam and digging soil... You don't inform me in advance when you come back, which makes me not even washed my face and it's so dirty!"

"Download the beam and dig the soil?" Yan Yunting said in confusion.

Qing Yan said: "There is a new law in Luoyang City. All houses only retain basic accommodation, and all the extras are 'returned to the building and farming'. In the future, this house will be turned into a vegetable garden."

"I know the reform law, but there are so many buildings in the house, it's a pity to demolish it."

"Actually, it's okay. Once these houses are demolished, we will get a large area of ​​arable land. The dozens of us can be self-sufficient. Moreover, those stones that have been demolished can be used as stoves, millstones, and beams of houses can also be used as firewood!"

"You know how to use waste." Yan Yunting smiled.

Qing Yan shook her head, "How can I understand? Ruowei is doing these budget-oriented tasks with just one hand."

Ning Ruowei walked from the night light, her face full of grievance and sadness.

"Ruowei, Lord Lu, have you sent it away?" Qing Yan saw the bacon and rice bag in Ning Ruowei's hand and asked again: "Why did you bring the bacon and rice back? Lord Lu didn't want him?"

Ning Ruowei was about to speak, but Yan Yunting first asked: "Now, the supplies in the whole city are very tight, and grain and rice are as expensive as gold and silver, let alone wine and meat. You are so generous."

silence,

It was so silenced.

"My mistakes are all mine?" Ning Ruowei wiped her tears, left the crowd, and ran into the deep house.

Qing Yan explained: "Did you misunderstand something? We did this to offset taxes. After the new policy of Luoyang City, 30% of the property will not be confiscated, and no one can bear it."

Yan Yunting's voice gradually became colder: "But it was Yuwen Changqing who issued the new policy. With my relationship with him, can't you avoid your taxes?"

"But he has always been from Huangshan Academy, and he is not in Luoyang."

"So you are humble and flattering to that villain Lu Boguang?"

"That's how you scold Ruowei?" Qing Yan said solemnly with Xiumei:

"You have to apologize to her."

"Apology? Who in the world deserves my apology?"

Yan Yunting snorted softly, "I'm tired and hungry. I want to eat bacon tonight, a jar of good wine, and a bucket of hot water to prepare a looser set of clothes."

Qingyan stared at her eyes: "Who did you learn from? Just keep calling people?"

Yan Yunting pointed to the house and said proudly: "I gave this house deed. Every brick, every tile, every grass and every tree here belongs to me. If you want to live here, then every frown, smile, every move must be based on my thoughts... Do you understand?"

"you--"

"I'm so slapping, why don't you go!"
