The ancient life of a master craftsman
Chapter 145
The mayor turned around and introduced Chen Yingcai, and praised him fiercely for a long time, but with Li Enbaizhuyu in front of him, his fish eyes can't be fooled, stripping away the appearance of those honors, but looking at this person, he is just a Vulgar people.
Li Enbai lightly opened the folding fan in his hand, showing a suave, rebellious and rebellious attitude, and looking at Chen Yingcai, this appearance is unmatched by everyone.
Looking at his conversation, Li Enbai is neither humble nor overbearing, he is not fascinated by wealth, no matter what he says, he always smiles and talks and laughs freely.
As for Chen Yingcai, just because he turned black when he heard the eldest son and Li Enbai sing a harmony, he fell down.
Chasing fame and fortune, losing one's original intentions!
Liu Chuncheng's evaluation of him was even more harsh, leaving only the words 'unclean nature'.
Chen Yingcai naturally knew that at the beginning of the show tonight, he had fallen behind, and then in order not to be ashamed, he also calmed down and just took the opportunity to stab Li Enbai from time to time.
For example, when he was able to survive by relying on Yunli's rescue, Chen Yingcai said that he was on soft food, and asked him if he couldn't straighten up in front of old man Yun now.
Li Enbai's smile remained unchanged, but he looked at Chen Yingcai with a strange look in his eyes, "Brother Chen has a deep understanding of this kind of thing?"
He glanced at Zhang Fugui in a blink of an eye, "After all, Brother Chen had been relying on his fiancé's family to support him before he became a scholar. Everyone in Huaimu Village knew everyone. After getting married, Boss Zhang treated you very well, even taking concubines. This kind of thing is allowed."
Picking up the wine glass to Boss Zhang, "Boss Zhang, this glass of Linfeng is toast to you, you have a good son-in-law."
"Hahaha, okay, okay, Yingcai, join us for a drink!" Boss Zhang's eyes were burning.
Chen Yingcai didn't even dare to fart now, she shrank her neck and raised the wine glass to clink with Li Enbai in the air, and drank it down in one gulp.
Li Enbai put down his wine glass, as if thinking of something again, raised his head and asked, "Oh, by the way, Brother Chen, I heard that you have both sons and daughters now, and you made up a good word. Congratulations, please."
He picked up the wine glass again, this time making a toast to Chen Yingcai.
Chen Yingcai didn't dare to look at his father-in-law's face, only felt the thorns on his back, feeling like he was sitting on pins and needles, and his face froze, "Haha, ha, it's all rumors, rumors! I only have one apple right now."
"Oh?" Li Enbai drank the wine anyway, "Then this glass of wine can be regarded as Linfeng's apology. I listened to the rumors and gossips, so I'm here to say sorry to Brother Chen."
"It's okay, it's okay." Chen Yingcai's forehead was faintly sweating.
The two of them communicated not too loudly, and other people didn't care to watch. The purpose of Zhang Fugui's coming to the banquet this time was not to watch his son-in-law fight with others. He raised his glass and looked at Liu Chuncheng, "Brother Liu , you Liu Ji have grown bigger and bigger recently, I really envy you, brother."
Liu Chuncheng didn't even have a cup, "Zhang Ji is not bad, and he can be counted among the best in Xinglong Town."
"It's not comparable to the Liu family, my brother. I don't know where you get the cloth from Liuji cloth village? The purchase price is so much lower, and you can still make money?" There was a moment of embarrassment, and he also put down the wine glass.
If Liu Chuncheng can't get drunk, then he doesn't need to toast this glass of wine.
"Our Liu Ji has always been self-produced and sold, doesn't Boss Zhang know? Our Liu family started with spinning." Liu Chuncheng showed a little complacency.
"Then it seems that Brother Liu's family has found a lot of masters in order to greatly increase production. Congratulations, Brother Liu."
Zhang Fugui gritted his teeth and said, but his face was full of flesh, no matter what, he had a ferocious expression, Liu Chuncheng didn't take it seriously at all.
"There are no masters, but my family now uses the most advanced looms and spinning machines, and the output has naturally increased." He glanced at the people present.
The tone of complacency was only a little bit, "You also know that our Liu family is an imperial merchant with a signboard, and we are wholeheartedly loyal to the emperor and the court. This sincerity is naturally seen from above. No, we just got a new weaving shop. The cloth machine was moved to our Liu family."
He has received the letter that the loom will be widely promoted in Jiangnan, Zibo and other places, and their Liu family has taken the lead. They have used this loom for nearly a year, and it is enough to stabilize their feet. At this time, it was revealed Naturally, they are not afraid of the news.
Liu Chuncheng's words made the mayor, Zhang Fugui, and the head of the mountain tremble in their hearts. The Liu family was right under their noses and received the reward from above.
Zhang Fugui even made up his mind to write a letter to the main branch when he returned home, trying to find a way to make the emperor reject the Liu family.
"Hahaha, Brother Liu, I really envy your Liu family. You can communicate directly with the higher-ups. It's hard for a small family like us to survive." He sighed.
Liu Chuncheng retorted, "What you're saying is that our Liu family is only a family of merchants, and your Zhang family in Liuyang is a family. Your ancestors have had 30 to [-] people who were officials alone? It must be that the younger brother admires the talent of the Zhang family. Not only did he become an official , doing business is also flourishing, I admire it."
The two fought for half the time, and occasionally the mayor and others intervened. Unknowingly, it was time to end. Li Enbai repeatedly stated that he wanted to go home, so he and Liu Chuncheng left during the mayor's warm stay. It was almost time for the town gate to close, they had to hurry up.
When they went out, the mayor who came out to see off the guests suddenly said to Li Enbai, "Li Xiucai, the imperial examination is not easy. You have worked hard. I gave you a gift. Don't refuse it, otherwise you will not give me face. gone."
"Gift? My lord, I don't know..." Li Enbai drank a lot of wine today, and now his thoughts are a little confused, but he managed to stay awake.
"It's already in your carriage, and you can enjoy it on the way back."
The mayor's smile became greasy, which made Liu Chuncheng feel a little nauseated, and suddenly felt something was wrong. He didn't drink alcohol because he was unwell, but Li Enbai had to drink, and he was already a little drunk at this time.
"Lord mayor, Linfeng and I are in a carriage. If your gift takes up too much space, you will have to wait until next time." Liu Chuncheng wanted the mayor to take this gift back.
But since the mayor gave it away, how could he take it back? He stroked his beard and said, "You don't have to worry about Yixian, the old man has already made arrangements, and informed you early that the people in your house have sent a car."
Liu Yixian has a problem, that is, he never makes a carriage of other people's family. When he and Li Enbai came here, it was Liu Chong who drove the carriage and used the Liu family's carriage.
He has lived in Xinglong Town for so many years, and the mayor has long been aware of his problems. If Liu's car is not arranged for him, he may have to walk back today. Xinglong Town was disturbed.
Thinking about how he felt sorry for Liu Chuncheng at the beginning, Liu Chuncheng really walked back to Liu's house step by step. In fact, it was not far away, just two cups of tea. As a result, ten days later, his brother brought several boxes of silver. When I came back, they said they needed to build roads.
Building roads is a great thing. Today's grandfather Song Shengzong likes to build roads. Shengzong also has a famous saying that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads.
Therefore, all the official roads in the Song Dynasty were built very smoothly, and they were built to the entrance of every village, which was very convenient.
But this Liu Chunshan is different. He builds roads day and night, especially around his mayor's mansion. He gnawed the sugar palm day and night. For half a month, his family couldn't get a good night's sleep.
But whether he is doing good deeds, doing good deeds, or adding political achievements to him, he has nothing to say.
In the next few confrontations, he knew that Liu Yixian was not someone to be provoked, not only because he was very powerful, but also because he was protected by someone behind him, so he couldn't move easily.
So he heard people say that Liu Chuncheng and Li Enbai came from outside the town in a carriage, so he immediately sent someone to Liu's house and asked them to send a carriage.
Now it came in handy, Liu Chuncheng could no longer help Li Enbai to refuse, so he could only hold his breath and get into the car.
Li Enbai was a little confused, the voice in his ears seemed to be far away, and he couldn't hear it at all. He only saw Liu Chuncheng get into the carriage, and he followed to get into the carriage, but was helped by the servants of the mayor's family into another carriage.
When he saw Liu Chong, he thought he got into the wrong car just now, so he didn't resist and got into the car directly.
It was dark in the car. I don't know when the incense was smoked. The strong fragrance almost blocked his nose, making him very uncomfortable. He took off the sachet on his waist and covered it to his nose, muttering, "What's the smell?"
He casually leaned against one place, and fanned the wind with the other hand, "Why is it so hot?"
As he spoke, he patted the car door, "Liu Chong, open the door, it's a little hot."
He thought he was drinking too much, so he was hot. After hearing this, Liu Chong hurriedly opened the car door and said to him, "Young Master Li, the mayor let the person inside be stuffed in. Be careful."
"Huh? What?" Li Enbai still felt hot, and his ears were buzzing, and he couldn't hear what Liu Chong was saying.
At this time, a person came out from inside, and supported Li Enbai to sit up, "Master~" The person also had a strong fragrance, which made Li Enbai almost vomit, and pushed him away.
Putting the sachet under his nose and sniffing carefully, he didn't feel better until his nose was filled with the faint pear blossom aroma, but the heat on his body was getting higher and higher, which made him more and more unclear.
I guess it's because of the alcohol, right?
Li Enbai put the curtain on the car door, let the smelly smell in the carriage dissipate, and also let the light penetrate into the car, he was about to fall asleep in a daze.
"My lord~ let this slave serve you." A pair of soft jade and warm hands stretched out to half wrap his arms around him, and the red lips were about to touch his face.
Suddenly Li Enbai twitched, and the next moment he opened his eyes, where he was still drunk, he pressed his temple, and pushed away the little brother who came up to him with one hand.
"Who are you?" His tone was bad. If the system hadn't shocked him in time and sobered him up, he would have made a mistake now.
The little brother didn't expect him to wake up so soon, he was a little puzzled, but he didn't dare to be presumptuous anymore, he knelt down in a polite manner, "My family Yanyu, I have seen the master."
Li Enbai raised his eyebrows, Yanyu?
this is not...
Li Enbai lightly opened the folding fan in his hand, showing a suave, rebellious and rebellious attitude, and looking at Chen Yingcai, this appearance is unmatched by everyone.
