Chapter 041 Atmosphere

"Brother Han, this matter is of great importance. I can't just say it. I need time to think about it." Li Kui thought for a while and said, "How about this. I'll come to the county in half a month and we can discuss it again.

"

Han Dahu didn't expect Li Kui to agree immediately, but he was forced into a hurry and was unwilling to let go of any hope: "Brother Xian, you have to make a decision quickly, brother is pointing at you."

"Brother, you are joking. You are from an official family, and I am just from a commoner family. I am the younger brother who relies on my elder brother." Since Han Dahu has the hope of becoming a relative of the emperor, Li Kui will naturally not be stingy with his kind words.

Han Dahu smiled bitterly: "Brother Xian, you are joking. My brother is just a low-level patrol inspector who has brought shame to our ancestors..."

Han Dahu, who is able to compete with Du Yuhou, is obviously from a military family, and his official position is not low. And Han Dahu should have been inspected by Enyin. Although his current official position is very low, it is also said that

I won't be able to become prosperous that day.

Han Dahu wanted to settle the matter immediately, but in the face of Li Kui, coercion was of no use. Even if he was more ruthless than Good Hu, could he be more ruthless than Li Kui?

He doesn't know any other way.

As of now, this is the only way it can be.

I hope Li Kui will not deliberately ask for a price because he is too eager. If that happens, he may have to carry his father-in-law out.

After all, Yuhou, the capital of the Forbidden Army, is also a senior military attaché among the Forbidden Army. With a lack of fifth rank, he is not a powerful person that ordinary people can compete with. At the same time, he can't help but complain about his father-in-law. Although the Liu family is not favored by the Huaiyang Army,

The general's treatment is welcome, but it can be regarded as a force. If he hadn't had the dream of reaching the sky in one step, how could he have thought of sending his daughter to the palace?

Now that the accumulation of several generations of a family is being sent to the palace, I don’t know if there will be any results.

If everything goes wrong, the whole family, including the sons-in-law, will have nowhere to cry!

Before leaving the house, Li Dalang pulled Li Kui's sleeve and almost burst into tears. He has grown so big and has not yet drank with the inspector, but his brother suddenly wants to go out. Can you not scare him? "Brother, please hurry up.

Come back some more!"

Li Kui looked up at the sky, with a look of helplessness on his face. He, his brother, really couldn't help him. No matter how unlucky he was, he was still a member of the family, and he had to help those who should be helped. As for what will happen to him in the future? God knows!

"Brother, you have also learned how to roast chestnuts with sugar. I have tasted the taste and it is okay. It has reached the level where you can open a shop in the county. From now on, when you go out, you will have to do business alone. From now on, you will face all kinds of people.

You need to bear all this alone. Don't think about how difficult it is, think about mother, does she still need your support?"

"I know, but brother..."

Li Kui waved his hands impatiently and said: "I'm looking for my third uncle, he's in the village. Remember not to talk nonsense. I tolerate it at home, but people outside won't get used to your bad mouth."

Han Dahu and several of his men were left eating and drinking at home, with Li Dalang, who was thinking hard and almost crying, as company, while Li Kui walked out of the house to find the old patriarch.

Li Kui didn't go empty-handed. He took the two baskets of copper coins brought by Han Dahu, one in each hand, and walked toward the village where the old patriarch lived.

After calling the door, Li Kui stepped into the yard.

People in the mountains are all members of the same ancestors and clans, so Baizhang Village does not have the habit of closing the courtyard gate.

The old patriarch was still lying on the rocking chair in the yard to bask in the sun. In winter, he seemed to be less willing to move. Li Kui came closer and shouted: "Third uncle!"

The old man glanced at Li Kui sideways. In fact, he couldn't see people clearly. If anyone had his head raised to the sky and basked in the sun for a long time, everything he saw would be gray and haloed, and he couldn't tell who was who.

After calming down for a while, he saw clearly that it was Li Kui. Li Kui didn't need to see clearly, he knew it was this bastard coming by the sound. He saw clearly that Li Kui came to the house with two baskets of copper coins.

The old man curled his lips arrogantly and said leisurely: "But I finally saw the money to turn back!"

The seventh uncle Li Hong came over. When he saw the copper coins, he thought to himself: "I'm afraid it's ten coins, right?"

Such a large amount of money is definitely a big sum of money for a mountain person. He would not dare to accept Li Kui's money. What is going on? If he, an elder, takes the money of a junior, it is still such a large amount of money. This is

How should he face the villagers?

"Li Kui, what are you doing! Take the money back quickly." As he spoke, Li Hong wanted to bring up the copper coins and send them back to Li Kui. However, he did not expect that his father would snort coldly.

The old patriarch said impatiently: "How can an elder see a junior coming to the house and kick him out without saying a word?"

"Dad! But this money..."

"The money is not given to you, why are you anxious!" The old patriarch was quite disappointed that his son was not calm and calm. He did not believe that Li Kui would give money for no reason. This would not only embarrass him.

, even Li Kui, who gave the money, would be criticized in the village, and a naughty boy like Li Kui would not be able to do such a stupid thing.

The old man raised his hand and pointed at Li Kui and said, "Boy, tell me why you came to this old man?"

The old man was very angry this time, and he was obviously still angry about Li Kui's unauthorized hunting of tigers that day. Although everyone was happy with the result, the tiger seemed to be a bit of a trap. But what if Li Kui was injured?

If you are bitten by a tiger, the injury will be serious.

This kid doesn't know the importance of it. He is a young man who is valued by the big boss in the county. Wouldn't it be easy to study in the future? Baizhang Village is about to have a scholar. If he is eaten by a tiger, how can you complain?

Not complaining?

"Third uncle, aren't my children here to honor your old age?"

Li Kui sat down next to the old patriarch with a smile, and looked at the old man with a playful smile. The old man is not easy to hit, right? Angrily, with the help of Aunt Seven, he sat up and asked: "It's time to eat at home.

But it’s not your part.”

"I've eaten, I've eaten." Li Kui said with a smile: "I have something to ask my third uncle here. I'm not here to ask for his help."

"Tell me! None of the children in the village are reassuring, they are all careless white-eyed wolves." The old man was very resentful, but he still agreed to Li Kui's request.

Li Kui said: "My brother has recently learned the skill of roasting seeds and is planning to open a small roasting shop in the county. However, we don't have many chestnuts at home. We need to collect them in the village. We may also go to nearby villages to collect some."

, transport it to the county and camp it up to prepare for business, right? I guess there is no work to do in the village now, so I want my third uncle to help gather the people in the village to help deliver and collect chestnuts. This is just wages.

, the money for collecting chestnuts is calculated separately.”

"You're so tough, boy! Baizhang Village hasn't seen such a person for many years. Okay, I understand. Just be rest assured and it won't delay anything."

The old man knew all the young people in the village very well. The elder brother in Li Kui's family didn't even bother to take a look at the old man. He was just a thing for the tribe to make up for. The old man tilted his mouth and said unhappily: "But Kui boy, you can take care of it."

What's that coward Da Lang doing? Let him sell himself to work as a tenant in a wealthy family, he's just a piece of shit who can't be helped! The money from the sale can still support your mother, right?"

It has to be said that the people in Baizhang Village are more ruthless than the others. Even though the old man is older, he was also a ruthless person when he was young.

Li Kui also agreed very much.

But the problem is that Li Dalang is also your grandson!

You always talk like this, is it appropriate?

Unexpectedly, the old patriarch was not happy anymore and scolded: "Your eldest brother is too tired. He will definitely lose money in business. It is not easy for you to get this money, and it may not be enough to spend on studying. In the future, you will have to

When you do big things, you can't let the people around you drag you down. If you don't want to be a bad person, and the old man becomes a bad person again, the old man will speak for you."

"Don't!"

Li Kui hurriedly stopped the old man. The people in Baizhang Village all had a destructive mouth, and each one was more destructive than the other. The old man really wanted to scold people. I am afraid that Li Dalang might be so scolded that he would be too embarrassed to waste food while living shamelessly.

You have to commit suicide!

Li Kui had no choice but to coax the old man like a child: "Third uncle, look at you, are you anxious? How could I not know that my eldest brother is in trouble? I came to you not just to ask for your help in gathering the clan members.

People, and asked Uncle Qi to help look after my elder brother. I guess this is also a livelihood. If this business can be done, there may be another way to make a living in the village for the big guys to eat in the future."

Li Kui knew that as long as the livelihood of his tribe was related, the old man would definitely stand up and support him.

Sure enough, the old patriarch thought about it for a while and said suspiciously: "Is this reliable?"

"I haven't done it, so I don't know! But if it works, won't our village have a livelihood that we can live in?" Li Kui asked rhetorically.
