Datang: Dad, I really didn't want to rebel!

Chapter 50 Full of malice

Chapter 63 Full of malice

After Li Chengqian took his seat, he found that the maids were still standing there in a daze, so he waved his hand immediately and said, "What are you guys doing in a daze, sit down quickly, this is the first time we have dinner together this year, so please open your eyes." Just eat, don’t care about those rules.”

After hearing the words, the maids sat down one after another, looking at the delicacies, they couldn't help swallowing in secret.

Li Chengqian held up a glass of grape wine, then stood up, "Today, I toast you all with wine again. I hope you will work more diligently in the future!"

After speaking, Li Chengqian drank it all in one gulp.

And the maids also followed suit and drank all the wine with one tilt of their heads.

"Then let's eat now!"

Li Chengqian gave a loud cry, and the crowd began to move the bowls and chopsticks, drinking and drinking together, enjoying themselves.

After working in the kitchen for so long, Li Chengqian was already hungry, but with Su Han and the servant girl watching, he was too embarrassed to steal food.

Now that it was finally time to eat, he would definitely take a few more bites.

After eating for almost an hour, he put down his chopsticks and went to the copper utensil to see how the barbecue was doing.

After an hour of roasting, the chicken wings were almost cooked, and Li Chengqian spread benzoin fennel and pepper on them.

Immediately, a scent permeated the entire courtyard.

Those maid dishes were not enough in the first place, but now that they smelled the fragrance, one or two eyes were straightened.

Li Chengqian gave the biggest one to Su Han, and then pointed to the rest, "You all come and get them, there will be others to bake later."

The maids immediately swarmed up, and the atmosphere became lively again.

While they were scrambling, Li Chengqian set his eyes on Su Han and saw that she was eating it with relish, so he asked, "Xiao Han, how does it taste?"

Su Han also didn't care about etiquette, his mouth was full of oil, he ignored Li Chengqian's words, and continued to gnaw obsessively.

Well... action is the best answer.

Li Chengqian is very pleased...

In the middle of the night, the banquet finally ended. Li Chengqian touched his swollen belly with a very satisfied expression.

Turning around to look at Su Han, I found that she was also slumped on the chair, presumably unable to eat.

As the saying goes, full of food and drink, Li Chengqian suddenly had a little thought, so he moved his face closer, "Xiaohan, anyway, we still have to watch the new year, boredom is boring, why don't you go inside and have some fun?"

From his sly expression, Su Han knew that nothing good was going on, so he gave him a glare, "Shou Sui is an important day, so don't play tricks..."

"... "

Communication failed, Li Chengqian could only sit in a chair in a daze in depression.

Watching the New Year's Eve all night, if you don't find something to do, who can stand it?

In a daze, it was Zishi.

"Ding Dong, it is detected that the host has a chance to sign in every year, do you want to sign in?"

Hearing this voice, Li Chengqian became energetic in an instant, and then said excitedly, "Sign in!"

"Ding dong, get iron ore detector*1; copper ore detector*1; coal ore detector*1 (treasure hunting is not, the kind that is sentenced to death)."

"Ding dong, get painter*50; writer*50; calligrapher*50 (integrated for leisure and entertainment)."

"Ding dong, I got a mysterious gift package*1 (if you want to know, I won't tell you)."

"... "

A series of things made Li Chengqian dizzy, but when he came back to his senses, he just wanted to say one thing...

What are these things?

A few detectors are okay, because iron ore is an important material, and Li Chengqian's steelmaking is inseparable from iron. If there are detectors, there will be no need to worry about finding iron.

There are also copper mine detector stones and coal mine detectors. With them, Li Chengqian can find supplies much easier.

But these remaining things left Li Chengqian speechless.

Painters, calligraphers, writers, what use are these to him, it is better to discount them directly.

As for the final mysterious gift package...

"Open!"

Li Chengqian read it silently, but in the end he only got a big red cross and a sentence.

"Your permissions are insufficient."

Just six words, but full of malice.

"When will you have permission?"

"depend on mood…"

"... "

Your uncle, stop talking.

...

In the middle of the night, Li Chengqian was drowsy all the time, but as soon as he closed his eyes, Su Han squeezed his arm hard beside him.

"hiss…"

Li Chengqian gritted his teeth and took a breath, and instantly regained his energy.

In this way, with Su Han's "help", Li Chengqian finally made it to the fifth watch.

When a white light appeared on the dark sky, Li Chengqian couldn't stand it anymore, and fell asleep on the table.

Su Han yawned, and seeing that he was sleeping like a pig, she asked the maid to take him back to the room.

...

On New Year's Day, Li Chengqian originally wanted to take a nap, but as soon as he arrived, Su Han walked to Li Chengqian's bedside with a basin of hot water.

"Your Highness, it's time to get up." Su Han called softly.

"Ok?"

Li Chengqian replied in a daze, feeling very reluctant in his heart.

"It's early in the morning, what are you doing?"

Su Han pushed, "Don't sleep, someone is coming to greet you outside."

Li Chengqian said confusedly: "Impossible, I'm not related to me in Qianzhou, so why would someone pay New Year's greetings to me?"

"Yes." Su Han blinked and said, "They are all rich households from Qianzhou and Chenzhou."

"Rich households? Then let someone send them away casually. It's a big Chinese New Year holiday and I don't want to work overtime." Li Chengqian turned over.

"But... they seem to have brought red envelopes."

Swish!
Li Chengqian suddenly lifted the quilt, then straightened up like a spring, "Go, go out to meet guests!"

"... "

Those wealthy households seemed to know that Li Chengqian had no relatives or reasons in Qianzhou, so they came to their door one after another to pay New Year greetings to Li Chengqian.

In this regard, Li Chengqian really wanted to say, as long as the money arrives, it doesn't matter if you can't bear it.

But he felt that it was very rude... mainly because he wanted to see who gave more money.

There are dozens of wealthy households in Qianzhou, and there are more than thirty wealthy households in eight other prefectures, including Chenzhou.

Most of the wealthy households from Chenzhou came to thank Li Chengqian for his kindness.

More than 100 wealthy households chattered a lot, until Li Chengqian got a little impatient, a wealthy household suddenly came out, cupped his hands and said: "Great Governor, I have something to discuss with you."

Li Chengqian yawned, and said weakly: "Speak up if you have something to say."

The rich man said: "The villain knows that the coal stove and honeycomb briquettes made by the Governor General Weapons Division were sold to several rich families in Qianzhou."

"So the villain also wants to buy a batch of coal stoves and briquettes from the Governor."

"Huh?" Li Chengqian raised his eyelids, "Do you know that a coal stove is one tael of silver each, and honeycomb coal is fifty cents each, how much can you afford?"

"One tael of silver?" The rich man was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at Yu Shui and the others, and then he turned his head again, "Great governor, isn't it five hundred coins?"

"That's a discount promotion. It originally cost a tael of silver. If you don't believe me, you can ask Yu Shui and them." Li Chengqian said.

The rich man hastily cupped his hands, "The villain dare not doubt the governor."

After finishing speaking, he gritted his teeth and said, "Since the governor said he wanted a tael of silver, then it's up to you!"

Li Chengqian narrowed his eyes, "Then how much do you want?"

"Back to the governor, the villain wants three thousand coal stoves and thirty thousand briquettes!" the rich man said.

Li Chengqian was surprised: "This is four thousand five hundred taels of silver. Do you have that much silver?"
