National teacher, your man ran away

After comforting Song Ye, who was furious, it was time to entertain the county magistrate.

Now that Yao's family affairs are being taken care of, the master Yao Yixin is quite relaxed, as long as there is something to be ordered, the people below will naturally take care of it. For example, for the guests at a big banquet, Uncle Mu Chai is in charge of meals and drinks, and Uncle Song Ming is in charge of arranging the waiters. People, he just needs to bring Bai Shisan to wait in the flower hall to welcome the guests.

Of course, when the county magistrate comes, everyone will go to the door to greet him.

The county magistrate is in charge of the entire county, so there is nothing he doesn't know about. Of course, regarding the Yao family's key concerns, he naturally knows that someone in Qingjiang County dares to raise prices for Yao Yixin's sake.Seeing that the owners of the two kilns were not among the guests who came today, the county magistrate frowned, thinking that it was so!

If Yao Yixin invited others to dinner after being trampled on his face like this, then he would look down on him instead.

The meals at Yao's family were still as delicious as ever, but the guests who came today were all very curious about the fresh bamboo wine that Yao Yixin brought out.

The county magistrate was originally a son of a nobleman from the imperial city, and he was confident that there would be no good wine in the world that he hadn't tasted before, but unexpectedly, he fell at the feet of fresh bamboo wine, a pretentious weapon.

"Okay! This fine wine in Japan should be dedicated to the Master of the State Teacher!" While tasting the fine wine, the magistrate did not forget their male god.Very good, it seems that this is also a hardcore national teacher!

Yao Yixin's cheeks twitched a few times, and she didn't dare to tell them that the national teacher they revered had now turned into a little furball fox the size of a bunny paper... Gao Leng's persona has collapsed!

Not only the county magistrate, but most of the people here are rich and leisurely local tycoons. Naturally, they like to dance and write to show their elegance. This fresh bamboo wine uses the bamboo itself as a vessel to absorb the essence of the sun and moon in the mountains. It has been brewed through years of precipitation, just listening to this advertisement is full of words, not to mention, this fresh bamboo wine is a gorgeous amber color, with a faint fragrance of bamboo leaves, it can't be more catering to their literati's taste Aesthetic!

What made them even more happy was that after the banquet, Yao Yixin gave each of the distinguished guests who came to the banquet today two cans of original fresh bamboo wine in the name of trying something new after the banquet. The silk and satin are wrapped and placed in a bamboo basket woven from green bamboo, surrounded by fresh bamboo leaves and branches, which looks very elegant.

Inside the carriage.

"My lord, what do you think this young master of the Yao family is? Why didn't he ask you about such a good opportunity today? It's not up to you to just say a word to punish those two families?" Accompanied The staff of the county government who came to the banquet said in surprise.

"I want him to speak up, but unfortunately, this kid is too smart! That's all, I just hope that nothing will go wrong, and I don't want to rely on the relationship of that person to go through the back door. You send someone to watch those two families. If If anyone dares to touch Yao's place, don't call me back, just call back!"

"Yes!"

Yao Yixin never imagined that in this world, there really are idiots who listen to the wind and rain!

As for the masters of these two kilns, how come they are so good-natured that they can't think of picking Yao Yixin as the patron?

There really is a reason for this!

It turned out that these two kilns were originally relatives of an imperial kiln factory in the imperial city. I don’t know how many rooms are separated from each other. They were all forgotten by the master’s family. The masters of these two kiln factories borrowed flowers to present Buddha and presented the drawings to the masters. Not to mention the rewards from the masters, they unexpectedly learned that the young master of the Yao family who has been working with them happily is actually the wife of the Master of the State Teacher. Lang!

However, before they were happy, they were thrown a big basin of cold water by the master: "What kind of master is he? He is just a country boy who can't read a few words. I don't know what kind of relationship he got into the country. Master's mansion, I heard that Master Guoshi didn't see him several times a year, and he had never consummated the house after entering the door for more than a year. I haven't heard about this person for a long time now, and he appeared in a place like Qingjiang. It must be Abandoned by the National Teacher!"

Hu Xueren, the small kiln boss who was thinking about hugging his thighs, frowned suddenly. He thought that Yao Yixin really had some background, and that's why he was taken care of by the county magistrate. He didn't expect that he was the abandoned husband of the National Teacher's Mansion ?If he knew this earlier, why would he give this person so much discount?

At this time, Hu Xueren automatically forgot that the reason why he gave the Yao family a discount at the beginning was to use the blueprints provided by the Yao family for free. There is no one anymore.

He thought he knew about Yao Yixin's miserable past, and he was complacent that he could use it to hold Yao Yixin. Hu Xueren never considered that the Yao family would unilaterally end their cooperation with them. He was afraid that he would continue to raise the price in his heart, so he dared to refuse. Just expose the fact that he was dismissed by the National Teacher!Let's see how Yao Yixin has the face to continue to stay in Qingjiang County!

Hearing that Yao's family invited the county magistrate and rich men of the whole county to a banquet, but they didn't invite him, Hu Xueren was furious and furious.

However, before he released the news, another even bigger bad news came.

"What? The Yao family said that the price increase of our clay pots is too high, so they won't buy it?" Hu Xueren kicked over the coffee table angrily.

"That's right, master, their manager Bai said that not only will they not buy clay pots from our house in the future, but also the blueprints of Yao's custom-made pots can no longer be used by us."

"He won't give it if he says he won't give it?" Hu Xueren sneered, "The earthenware pots in the world are similar, who said we used theirs? Is there any evidence?"

Is this a blatant plan to plagiarize?

That’s right, there is no copyright protection in this time and space. As long as you take out the blueprints you draw and use them, and others imitate them, you can’t do anything about them. The Yao family's blueprints were dedicated to the main family as their own family's tribute, because the Yao family had no way to hold him accountable.

"No, master, that Manager Bai of the Yao family has said that their family will also open a kiln factory, and they will also make the pottery pots drawn on the drawings in the future, so, so..."

"Okay! Good Yao Yixin! It's really a toast and you don't eat or drink fine wine, you wait for me!" Hu Xueren gritted his teeth and kicked the supervisor, and ran angrily to find someone to spread rumors.

No matter how small a place is, there are people who form cliques, and Qingjiang County is the same. Moreover, because there is a wharf here, there are quite a few people who rely on this to mess around. Hu Xueren quickly found some people and promised some benefits. They spread rumors for themselves.

However, what he didn't expect was that these people took his money and ran to the Yamen to sell him as soon as they turned around!

Regardless of the small size of the Qingjiang county government, because the county magistrate who sits in it is a son of a nobleman who came down to be gilded, and the staff who accompany him are naturally capable and skilled. It has infiltrated, and now they heard that someone was going to harm Master Yao's family, these people immediately passed the news to the yamen.

This is also a good reward for good people in the Yao family. For more than a year, the Yao family has opened a food shop at the pier. When encountering neighbors who are struggling, they will lend a hand to help them. In contrast, the greedy and stingy Hu Jiayao The factory is naturally even more unpopular.

Yao Yixin couldn't help but want to light the wax for this brain-dead Boss Hu.

When he received a letter from the yamen, he was tossing a shrimp paste eel with Uncle Mu Chai at home.

After the beginning of spring, as soon as the river opened, all kinds of fresh river fish were also on the market. The fresh river prawns were fresh and sweet. Seeing the freshly delivered half-basket of lively river prawns in the kitchen, Yao Yixin immediately thought of a soup from their hometown.

Peel off the shells of the fresh river prawns, keep the heads and shells for later use, then shred the fresh eel and remove the bones.

Heat the oil pan, add the marinated chicken oil, and then put the shrimp head, shrimp shell and eel bone into the fry until fragrant. Dali fished out the shrimp heads, shrimp shells and eel bones, leaving only the thick soup for later use.

Reheat the oil pan, add green onion, ginger and garlic to stir-fry, add the prepared fresh shrimp and eel shreds, add half a spoonful of soy sauce, stir-fry until fragrant, add the boiled shrimp oil broth, shred the soft tofu into the stew Bring to a boil, then add salt and some lard.

Finally, mix a bowl of water starch, and stir it with a large spoon while pouring it in. When the soup is thick, sprinkle chopped green onion, and a shrimp paste eel is ready.

Although the ingredients of this shrimp paste eel are simple, but because the ingredients used are all in season, what you eat is the freshness.In the past, when the rural spring was green and yellow, Yao Yixin's grandmother often fished some small river shrimps in the ditch. If she was lucky, she could catch two rice field eels. These ingredients are not enough for cooking, but they can be used to make shrimp paste eel , but enough for a family to try early adopters.

Hearing such bad news while tasting delicious food, Yao Yixin couldn't help but get annoyed with that murderous kiln owner.

He didn't understand, everyone is kind and rich, hello, hello, hello, everyone, isn't it great?Firstly, he didn't steal the business from Mr. Hu, and secondly, he didn't default on the payment. Why couldn't this Mr. Hu think about it, and insisted on offending him, a big client?

Could it be that he looks like a bully? (Young man, tell the truth, aren’t hedgehogs easy to bully?)

"Master, do you want me to send two people to talk to Boss Hu?" Bai Shisan, who sent away the county government to deliver the letter, looked at his young master.

"Talk?" Yao Yixin turned to look at Bai Shisan, and asked the Su family's hidden guard to "talk" to the owner of a small kiln factory in the countryside?Are you sure you don't want to silence it?

"Ahem! Young master, the Anbu of the Su family also has its own rules, and it will never kill innocent people indiscriminately!" Bai Shisan promised righteously.

Of course they won't kill innocent people indiscriminately, but can't they stop some people from getting what they deserve?

Of course Yao Yixin would not believe that Bai Shisan was just looking for that treacherous Boss Hu to "talk casually", but if this matter really had to be dealt with, it was because Bai Shisan and the others were more professional. Yao Yixin had always been very self-aware. He will never try to be brave in things beyond his ability.

Moreover, he also believed that Bai Shisan knew what was going on in his mind. For a person like Boss Hu, it was okay to punish and frighten him appropriately. He never thought that he would really ruin his family.

It's just that Yao Yixin has kindness in her heart, and she can't stand the fact that there are people in this world who seek death by themselves.

Two days later, seeing Hu Xueren with a bunch of kiln workers blocking the door of his old house, Yao Yixin almost laughed out of anger.

"Boss Hu, what are you doing? Our family is not in arrears with your kiln."

"You have the nerve to say that? Your Yao family has stopped ordering from our kiln factory. Now the kiln factory can't open fire, and the craftsmen can't survive anymore. It's all because of you!" Hu Xueren glared at Yao Yixin fiercely, If eyes could kill, Yao Yixin would probably be dead by now.

Hu Xueren really didn't expect that Yao Yixin was just an abandoned husband of the National Teacher's Mansion, who had no power and power, and was abandoned by the Su family. Thanks to the fact that no one in Qingjiang County knew about it, he actually became a The Grand Master is here.And their Hu family came from a royal kiln factory, what Hu Xueren thought, if he didn't take this opportunity to grab Yao Yixin, his surname would not be Hu!

However, Hu Xueren never thought that he just wanted to raise the price, and he hadn't doubled it yet. Yao Yixin turned his face on him, canceled the order directly, and let that Bai Shisan come and threaten him.This really shocked him, Hu Xueren didn't expect such a master to exist in the Yao family.

However, after being honest for two days, Hu Xueren didn't swallow his breath, his eyes rolled, and he came up with another bad idea: no matter how powerful this Bai Shisan is, does he dare to kill people in broad daylight?He simply took the craftsmen in the kiln to the Yao family to seek justice. Why did the Yao family make all the craftsmen in the kiln starved of food?

Thinking of this incident, Hu Xueren felt like frying oil in his heart. Since the Yao family canceled the order, one of their two kiln factories in the Hu family has been shut down directly, and the other is also inactive. It is heaven and earth.

Business is not good, and the craftsmen that the Hu family has cultivated with great difficulty are clamoring for wages. Hu Xueren is stingy by nature, and the money is in his pocket, how can he be willing to take it out again?

However, he was reluctant to pay for it. The Yao family is very rich. The Yao family’s food shop is making a lot of money every day, which has long made the local merchants jealous. As long as he makes a fuss, other families will probably not be able to help but watch the fun Yes, who would help an outsider?Their Hu family is a native of Qingjiang County!

"That's right! The Yao family canceled the order and must compensate our kiln for the loss!"

"The kiln factory can't pay wages, and we are all going to starve to death!"

"Isn't Yao's restaurant doing very well? Losing money, losing money!"

In the crowd, several servants of the Hu family who were hiding among the craftsmen started to quarrel. Bai Shisan frowned, and moved his right hand behind his back. Immediately, several figures quietly surrounded them, occupying several Key position, ready to protect Young Master Yao at any time.

"Boss Hu, you brought these craftsmen to my house to make trouble, then did you tell them why our Yao family suddenly canceled the order of the kiln factory?" Yao Yixin was not afraid at all, he already knew that he There are people from the Anbu of the Su family who are secretly protecting them, and these craftsmen in front of them are not enough for the secret guards of the Su family.

In fact, at this moment, he even felt a little bit sympathetic to this indistinct Boss Hu. If he offended himself, the order would be canceled at most. However, if he offended Bai Shisan, the secret guard of the Su family, what would happen... Tsk tsk !Let's light some wax for him first to show his condolences.

Hearing Yao Yixin's rhetorical question, Hu Xueren blinked guiltyly. In fact, he really lied to these craftsmen, telling them that the Yao family suddenly canceled the order for no reason, which caused him to buy a large number of raw materials that could not be sold. , there is no money to send to the craftsmen for their wages.

However, now it seems that these craftsmen are not stupid. The key is that the Yao family’s reputation in the whole Qingjiang County is really good. Not to mention the matter of taking in the victims of the disaster last year, even in the town, they often help the poor and the weak. The craftsmen really don't believe that the young master of the Yao family will cancel the order for no reason, leaving them without food. However, most of them still rely on this craft to make a living. If the Hu family's kiln factory closes down , their jobs were smashed, and they came here not to cause trouble, but to think, maybe so many of them came to beg, and the young master of the Yao family would continue to buy clay pots from the kiln factory , so they won't keep their jobs?

Thinking of this, the craftsmen looked at each other and suddenly knelt down.

"Master Yao, please reward us with a bite of food!"

"If you cancel the order from the kiln factory, those of us with our families will starve to death."

"Yes, yes, we craftsmen don't have any crafts other than making clay pots. You are a kind person. Please have pity on us!"

Hu Xueren was going to be pissed off!

He originally wanted to take advantage of the large number of people and force the Yao family to continue buying pottery pots from their kiln factory. At worst, he would take a step back and pay less, but he never thought that the "thug" he brought would be the first to buy pots by himself. Cowardly, kneeling down and begging Yao Yixin voluntarily, this is slapping himself in the face!

"Get up! Get up for me!" Hu Xueren wanted to kick these craftsmen angrily, but he was twisted by a gray-clothed man who appeared out of nowhere.

"What are you doing?"

"The Yao family beat someone!"

"Shut up! If you keep making noise, I will cut him alive!" Bai Shisan took out the dagger with a snap, slid it down Hu Xueren's left cheek, and pressed it firmly against the guy's Adam's apple. , a bloodstain is clearly visible.

"Don't move! I, I'll listen to you." Hu Xueren was so frightened that he could hardly stand still. He was used to taking advantage of the power of the Hu family in Qingjiang County, and it was the first time in his life that someone pointed a dagger at him. The neck froze in an instant.

The leaders were all scared, and the others didn't dare to move.

Most of the craftsmen who followed Hu Xueren were honest craftsmen who only knew how to work hard all their lives. They took wages from the master's house to support their families. They were able to come to Yao's house to make trouble, but it was to keep their jobs. When they saw Bai Shisan taking out his dagger, they seemed to have been pressed the pause button, and they were all as quiet as chickens.

"Okay, okay, I still have to go into the mountains, I'm too lazy to talk to people like you here, Shisan, let someone go and tie up all the people brought by Boss Hu and throw them aside!" Yao Yixin waved his hand, Bai Thirteen gave a wink, and immediately someone rushed into the crowd, took out those who were noisily mixed in the crowd just now, tied them with hemp rope and threw them in the corner. Noisy, he simply walked over and removed the jaws of these people.This move is the unique skill of their hidden guards.

Now, those real craftsmen are even more quiet as chickens, wishing they could turn into air.

What made them even more desperate was that at this moment, Song Ye from the workshop learned that someone broke into the village and caused trouble in Yao's old house, so he made a decisive decision and asked all the workshop staff to rush over to support them with their "weapons" at hand. Yes, a mighty one or two hundred people gathered around, and the air became quiet in an instant.

"Okay, it seems that everyone has calmed down, so let me say a few words." Yao Yixin looked at the craftsmen who were kneeling on the ground, and suddenly had an idea, and even smiled with satisfaction.

I don't know why, when he smiled, Hu Xueren's heart skipped a beat, always feeling that something bad was about to happen.

really--

"As for the Hu's kiln factory, our Yao family won't be ordering any more. You must know what Boss Hu said, so let me tell you the truth. We really can't blame our Yao family for this matter. It's you, Boss Hu, who made money from our Yao family, and turned around to repay the favor, and raise the price for the good ones. Our Yao family made some money, but the money didn't come from the wind. Why? Will we suffer for nothing if he raises the price?"

"As for not being able to pay wages, I'm afraid you have to ask your boss Hu about this matter. Our Yao family's payment for goods has always been settled as soon as the goods arrive. If you don't believe me, I can ask someone to take the account book You see, the payment for the Hujia Kiln Factory has already been settled, as for why Boss Hu owes you your wages, you have to ask him himself."

"By the way, didn't you say that the Hu family's kiln factory is about to fail? Just in time, our Yao family is going to open a kiln factory soon. I see that all of you are old craftsmen of making clay pots. How about it? Are you interested? Come to work in our Yaojia kiln factory? You must know the wages of our Yaojia kiln. It will only be more than outside, and you will never treat everyone badly. I will also give you a promise here, as long as your craftsmanship is good enough , the wages of all craftsmen are [-]% higher than your current wages in the Hu family!"

The air suddenly quieted down.

"No! No! You are not allowed to go!" Hu Xueren suddenly struggled, and now he is not afraid of the dagger on his neck. These experienced craftsmen are the cash cows of their Hu family. If these people run away, he will come Where can I find these old craftsmen who have accumulated over the years?

"Thirteen, this man is full of dung, let me take his chin off!" Yao Yixin waved his hand, this Hu Xueren is already a grasshopper after autumn, it is not a problem. Focus on these artisans.

From Hu Xueren's reaction just now, he knew that the craftsmen in front of him were, nine out of ten, really skilled craftsmen. What a surprise!

He was thinking of opening a kiln factory for self-sufficiency, but he didn't expect the ready-made craftsmen to come to his door.

Over there, Bai Shisan neatly removed Hu Xueren's jaw, tied it up with a hemp rope, and threw it under the wall with his thugs.Here, the craftsmen of the Hu family, who were suddenly hit by the pie falling from the sky, have turned their backs and decided with one voice to immediately switch to the Yao family kiln factory.

It can't really be blamed that they don't have the slightest loyalty to the Hu family. In fact, they have worked so hard to make money for the Hu family these years. Instead of being nice to them, Hu Xueren beat and scolded them frequently, and the wages he paid have been the same for decades. , no matter how busy the kiln factory is and how many orders it takes, even if they stay up late and work overtime, they never give them a penny more.

It's no wonder that craftsmen would be loyal to such a Zhou Papi!
