Chapter 120 Yan Kai’s ambition

Despite the size of this vole nest, these naughty children were all full of energy. By the time they had dinner, they had basically turned the hole upside down.

Everyone came to Yan Kai with their harvest and showed off to him.

Yan Kai gave them a thumbs up, and then said, "I'll collect all your grain and field mice according to weight, how about that?"

Li Dazui's eldest son shook his head and said, "Mr. Yan wants these, just take them. How dare I take your money?"

Yan Kai shook his head and said, "That's not okay. These are considered the fruits of your labor. How can I take them for nothing?"

"Let me ask you, do you want me to pay with copper coins, or with candy?"

These children were not very old, and they immediately fell into Yan Kai’s language trap.

Because their question now has changed from whether to accept Yan Kai's reward to whether to accept copper coins or candy as reward.

"I want copper coins. Last time my mother saw a silk flower sold by a shopkeeper and was reluctant to buy it."

"I want... caramel, I can keep it for the New Year."

The children had everything they wanted, but Yan Kai gave them coins or caramels according to what they wanted, impartially based on the loot they dug, and everyone was happy.

Then Yan Kai called a villager and said: "You can accept these voles and grains, but remember to cook them vigorously and cook them thoroughly before eating them, otherwise you may get sick."

"Mr. Yan...this..." The villager looked at the pile of grain, which weighed at least sixty or seventy kilograms. He really wanted to refuse, but he couldn't speak.

"It's okay, it's something from your field. Remember, cook it hard!" Yan Kai smiled, then shouted: "Go home, let's see who gets home first!"

Then a group of children started running towards the house like crazy.

They are all the children of the cooks in Yan Kai's restaurant. The wages Yan Kai paid to the cooks were enough to ensure that these children had enough food and clothing, so he bought the food and left it to the villagers.

After making sure that all the children had returned home, Yan Kai led Li Wanshun and Sanya back to the restaurant.

As soon as the bowl was served and before he started eating, he saw Li Dazui walking over with his two sons in each hand.

"Mr. Yan, these two bad guys dare to take your money today!" Li Dazui threw the child away and tried to kick him up.

"What are you doing?" Yan Kai glared, frightening Li Dazui.

Then Mrs. Yan quickly dragged the two children behind her and said reproachfully: "Big mouth, please speak up."

"Mr. Yan...the two of them are just playing with you and digging out a few grains of grain from the vole hole. How dare they take your money!"

Li Dazui was a little anxious. Just now he was cooking for the restaurant in the back kitchen, but his wife came over with two children and a few coins. She said that they helped Mr. Yan dig vole holes in the afternoon and the grain in them was sold to Mr. Yan got it.

The two children were already stupid, but after seeing Li Dazui, they were so frightened that they did not dare to speak.

Li Dazui thought that the two children had accepted Yan Kai's money, so he quickly brought someone to admit his mistake.

"What dare you?" Yan Kai glared at him: "That's what I'm going to give you. How can you not pay me for doing something? Could it be that you work as a chef in our place, and you are willing to do it even if I don't pay you?" ?”

Hearing that it was Yan Kai who offered to give it to him, Li Dazui felt relieved.

He also whispered: "If you don't pay me, I will do it."

"You..." Yan Kai also knew Li Dazui's temper. He rolled his eyes at him and said, "In the future, change this impatient temper. Don't get angry at the child without asking the right reasons. Also, you were wrong just now. They both apologize."

"What?" Li Dazui opened his mouth wide: "I am their father..."

"Then what's the matter? Just tell them if you are wrong, right? I have taught my two children to admit they are wrong. Could it be that when I come to you, I want to tell them that they don't have to admit they are wrong?"

Li Dazui shook his head quickly after hearing this, and then whispered: "Dad... was wrong."

The sound was the same as the humming of a mosquito, but Yan Kai didn't say much: "Okay, okay, go about your business, the two of them will have dinner together here."

Before I even used my chopsticks, the two children were picked up and they definitely didn't eat either.

"Yes, yes, yes." Li Dazui turned to the two children and said, "Listen carefully to Mr. Yan's teachings, otherwise..."

"Huh?" Yan Kai raised his head.

"Cooking, I'll go to the back to cook. A guest just ordered a big dish, so I'll go and get busy."

Li Dazui quickly retreated.

Yan Kai got bowls and chopsticks for the two children, and then said: "Don't blame your father, he is actually worried about you."

"Yeah!" Li Dazui's eldest son nodded and said, "I know, dad is afraid that we will make Mr. Yan unhappy if we stay here, and Mr. Yan will stop teaching us, that's why he is like this."

"Hey, look at these children, they are so sensible!" Aunt Yan touched the heads of the two children: "Eat, eat, it's getting cold this day."

Yan Xiaoer had a good relationship with the two of them and gave them two chopsticks to eat. The three of them laughed and ate quickly.

After eating, Yan Kai waited until there were no more guests in the evening, then called all the cooks in the kitchen together.

After telling Li Dazui what happened today, everyone laughed and looked at Li Dazui secretly.

Big Mouth Brother can only be submissive to Mr. Yan.

Li Dazui was not annoyed at all, he just felt that what Yan Kai said was right.

Yan Kai smiled: "So after what happened today, I think it would be good to find something for you kids to do. Firstly, it can let them know that it is not easy for you to make money. Secondly, it can also make them understand that as long as they work hard, If you do things, you can make money.”

After hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement. Anyway, what Mr. Yan taught must make sense. This was their consensus.

"Okay!" Since everyone agreed, Yan Kai said, "From now on, we will still read and read in the morning and play in the afternoon. During the two days of rest, I will take them to do some things."

Yan Kai feels that these children are also his disciples, and they are still young and easy to train. It is better to train them from an early age so that they can become his helpers in the future.

He never planned to enter the court because he felt that he did not have the right mind.

It would be great to be a rich man in the Tang Dynasty. Looking at the entire Tang Dynasty, the most tolerant to businessmen was the early Tang Dynasty.

After Li Shimin succeeded to the throne, he would issue an edict, saying "to make money and sell goods, to make a living for the people" and to "think about correcting the past shortcomings to harmonize the folk customs".

Business will begin to develop rapidly in the Tang Dynasty. Although businessmen still cannot be officials, Yan Kai doesn't want to be an official.
