Happy Little Scholar

Chapter 126 Visitors from the Royal Palace

In the morning, someone sent Ruyi Lu to the shop, and Li Yi could enjoy his vacation. Tianlai 『Novel

The weather is good today. It is early autumn, the leaves have not fallen, and the mountain is not bleak. The shouts of the naughty children are filled on the gentle grass slope.

As a teacher, Qin Qing is much more responsible than Li Yi. She teaches seriously every day. The naughty children have a rare day of extracurricular activities. They run happily on a small grass slope by the stream, revealing their lively nature.

Qin Qing stood not far away and smiled at the naughty children. After getting along with them for a period of time, her impression of the naughty children has greatly changed, and she has really become a female teacher.

Not far from her, Liu Xiaohu and a group of boys were playing role-playing games. He liked to play Sun Wukong the most, dancing with a wooden stick, and the other naughty children watched from the side with envy.

According to the plot of "Journey to the West" told by the teacher, the fat kid who played the role of Tathagata Buddha was going to subdue him and press him under the "Five Finger Mountain", but seeing how well he danced with the stick, he immediately hid far away and did not dare to get close.

"Xiaohu, be careful, don't hit other people." Qin Qing warned from a distance, Liu Xiaohu responded, threw down the stick, and ran away with a few kids.

About ten feet up the grass slope, Li Yi brushed the meat that had been skewered with bamboo sticks with sauce and put it on an iron rack, under which was a red-hot charcoal fire.

The aroma of barbecue was everywhere, not far away, Lao Fang, who was grilling the fish caught from the stream with a few men on the fire, swallowed his saliva silently, decisively handed a fat fish that had just been skewered to someone else, ran to Li Yi's side, sat down, smiled at Li Yi, and stared at the grill unwilling to move away.

A little further away, the women in the village gathered together to chat and laugh. After a while, Xiaohuan ran over from there and ran to Li Yi's side, saying in a soft voice: "Son-in-law, the second lady asked if the meat was grilled..."

"Let her wait a little longer." Li Yi poked the charcoal fire with a wooden stick. You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Barbecue requires patience. The second lady Liu is free and only needs to open her mouth. She has become a free barbecue worker.

The little maid said "Oh" and was about to run over, but Liu Xiaohu and a group of naughty children ran over here happily.

"Sir, sir!" Liu Xiaohu handed over a small white thing in his hand and said, "Sir, sir, we just caught a rabbit, please roast it."

When Lao Fang saw the rabbit, his eyes lit up. The rabbit meat was tender and delicious. He had roasted it secretly when he was a teenager. But once he accidentally burned his clothes. After returning home, he was pressed on the kang and spanked by his parents. Since then, he has never eaten it again.

Li Yi took the rabbit that was not much bigger than a palm. It looked like there was only a few pounds of meat on the rabbit. It was not enough to fill the gaps between his teeth after roasting. Moreover, he really couldn't bear to eat such a white and soft little thing.

At this moment, he felt someone pulling his sleeves. He turned around and saw the maid's eyes full of pleading: "Sir, please don't eat this little rabbit..."

Li Yi has never been immune to the maid's coquettish offensive. He stuffed the rabbit into her arms and said, "Okay, okay, I won't eat it. You can play with it."

The maid walked away happily holding the rabbit. Lao Fang showed a regretful expression on his face... Rabbit meat is really delicious...

"Excuse me, where does Li Yi live?"

In Liuye Village, a young and handsome man stopped a villager and asked.

"Who are you?" The man looked at these strangers and asked with a vigilant face.

The village is isolated from the outside world. There are few outsiders coming here on weekdays. The young man is dressed luxuriously and has an extraordinary temperament. The men behind him are equipped with weapons on their waists. They are not ordinary people. What do these people want to do in the village?

"Don't be nervous, I'm Li Yi's friend, I have something to discuss with him." The young man said with a smile.

The man looked at the handsome man in front of him with a suspicious look, and seeing that he didn't look malicious, he pointed to the front and said, "My son-in-law is not at home now. You keep walking along this road. In about a quarter of an hour, you will see a stream, and you can find him there."

"Thank you!"

The young man bowed to him, and took a few people and walked forward in the direction pointed by the big man.

The man looked at the backs of the few people going away, scratched his head, and turned around to do his own things.

Regardless of the intentions of these strangers, they can't delay the son-in-law's business. If they don't have any bad intentions, it's fine. If they have any bad intentions, they will be courting death in their own territory...

"Little Prince, slow down, slow down."

A middle-aged fat man, sweating profusely, followed the young man behind him. He walked such a long mountain road, and with his physical strength, he really couldn't bear it.

The fat man's surname is Wang. He is a steward of the Ning Wang Mansion. He is in charge of all the business outside the palace.

This time he came with the little prince to discuss the cooperation of Ruyi Lu.

For Ruyi Lu, which has been popular in Qing'an City recently, this housekeeper Wang has long been famous. This elegant business is suitable for Ning Wang Mansion. He is still thinking about whether to ask the higher-ups for instructions on whether to intervene in this business.

But what he never expected was that this little prince who was idle all day and did everything except official business actually took care of these things. He immediately asked him to build a workshop and arrange manpower. After a series of instructions, the housekeeper was a little confused.

This is a good thing for the palace. After all, no matter whether it is ordinary people or nobles, no one will have trouble with money. Especially when he saw the strong liquor that the little prince took out, the housekeeper Wang's eyes began to light up.

This is not strong liquor, this is clearly pure silver.

However, the workshop was built by the palace, the manpower was provided by the palace, and the things were sold by the palace. The final profit was split 50-50. No one in the world dared to do business with Ning Wang Mansion in this way.

The young prince didn't understand these things, so he agreed casually and told the servants of the palace to do it. However, as the steward of the palace, he must maximize the interests of the palace and would not agree to such an absurd distribution method.

The reason why the steward Wang insisted on following this time was for this matter.

He wanted to see who was so bold that he dared to take advantage of the Ning Palace...

By the stream, Lao Fang swallowed a lot of saliva. When he was about to take the first skewer of barbecue handed to him by Li Yi, a slender white hand suddenly appeared and took the skewer away before him.

In Lao Fang's stunned eyes, the handsome young man took a bite of the skewer, showed an unexpected expression on his face, and exclaimed: "Delicious!"
