Although Yejiazhai is just a small village with a population of less than 600, as Lu Qi said before leaving, the Ye ghost master, who is over sixty years old, has a small reputation in the neighborhood, and the merchants who came to collect tea were invited to other nearby villages on the same day. When Du Shiyi set off for Ya'an in the morning, the village not only sent a variety of mountain products from tea, medicinal herbs to furs, etc., but even this Ye ghost lord took a large number of people to directly send out of Lixudi. This also made Pei Ning, who has always been cold, show emotion on his face after getting on the horse.

"It's actually very easy to get these mountain people to be grateful to Dade."

"They have been deeply sinicized, and there is no doubt that they are like Han people, if they are sincere, instead of drilling in the eyes of money, their benefits may not be small over the years, but unfortunately most people are insatiable"

When Du Shiyi finally returned to the Yazhou Governor's Mansion, it was already afternoon Shenshi. As soon as he entered the door, he saw a servant who stayed in the governor's mansion hurriedly stepped forward, and after saluting, he said with some embarrassment: "Lang Jun is not here, Yang Xiaoniang has been sullen, talking about Lang Jun all day long, and even because some people in the governor's mansion say that it is not safe outside, he begged Yang Sima to send someone to find it." It was the lady who sent someone to carry a letter to appease her, and she was in a better mood at this time, and she had fallen asleep at this time. ”

That difficult little girl

Du Shiyi sighed secretly, nodded and signaled that he knew, and then went to see Lu Qi. This trip to Yejiazhai was able to succeed immediately, firstly, because Wang Rong was asked to find out the fastest and most accurate information, and secondly, thanks to Lu Qi, the governor of Yazhou, who cooperated and sent his son Lu Cong to accompany him. Otherwise, even if he still does the same thing, he may not be able to have the same effect. Just the tea quotations opened by the chūn tea in those villages this year have a full 1,000 sheets, that is, 6,000 catties, and this is only a small place

Rare is expensive, and today's tea market is a seller's market, from Tibet, to Turkic, to Xibu, to Khitan, gradually have accepted and even quickly fell in love with such a drink, rather than rì after the government saw the huge benefits in this, to take what completely official sales or even the stupid behavior of the official species, it is better to adopt the tea introduction this once used for thousands of years of mature methods to regulate.

This night, Du Shiyi's eyes appeared in front of the simple smiling faces of those mountain people, and she slept extremely peacefully. When he opened his eyes early in the morning, he found that there was no sunlight outside, and the sound of rain came to his ears. Rain is commonplace for Bashu, especially in the summer of chūn, there is so much rain that he is not used to staying in Guanzhong Heluo at first, but over time he feels that even breathing is smooth, the only thing that he can't get used to is the yīn dampness in the room.

At this moment, he directly lifted the thin quilt, pulled his shoes and got out of bed, and when he pushed open the window, he saw a rain and fog between the sky and the earth, and a stream of water vapor came to his face. Secretly sighing that Tiangong is still beautiful, he finally didn't let him rain and disturb the situation when he was out before, and he was watching thoughtfully as the raindrops hit the ground, splashing small splashes, when he heard a voice from the side.

"Woke up so early?"

Following the prestige, Du Shiyi saw that Pei Ning had changed into a green shirt and stood under the porch, and hurriedly called out to the third senior brother, and then replied with a smile: "I just happened to hear the sound of rain, so I opened the window to take a look." Speaking of which, we were lucky before, otherwise it would be difficult to even rush if we encountered such rain on the road. ”

"Indeed, I also heard that it rains in Shuzhong, but when I set off from Chengdu before, I only encountered a few rains, and most of them were after nightfall."

"It rains at night and sunny during the day, and most of the rain in Yazhou is like this."

As the third voice suddenly interjected, Du Shiyi and Pei Ning saw Lu Qi who was faltering. found that his son Lu Cong was not accompanied by his side, in the spirit of respecting the elderly, Pei Ning hurriedly went over to help, while Du Shiyi put down the branch and took off the window to tidy up his clothes a little, put on his shoes, and then went to open the door.

"If there is something wrong with Lu Dudu, why should someone tell us that it is raining early this morning, the road is slippery, and it is a little wet, why should Lu Du come in person?"

When he heard Pei Ning say this when he went out, Du Shiyi knew that after the incident in Yejiazhai, Pei Ning had a lot of respect for Lu Qi's character, and you must know that his third senior brother Ping Rì was polite to his boss and high-ranking officials, but it was also polite that people couldn't find mistakes.

Sure enough, people respect me, I respect people, Lu Qi Huanhai has been full of warmth and coldness for many years, and when he heard this, he ironed in his heart, and said with a smile: "People are old, they wake up early in the morning, and when they think about it, they plan to come over to see you, but they don't want you two young people to run around outside for two years, but you still get up so early." My Shiro can't do it, he's still asleep at this moment. ”

"Lu Dudu is polite, if it weren't for Lu Langjun this time, this trip would not have gone so smoothly, he was also tired because he climbed up and down the Qingfeng of Mengshan Mountain yesterday."

What kind of son is his son, and where will Lu Qi not count? When Du Shiyi said this, he sighed softly, and then looked at Du Shiyi and said, "This matter of the tea introduction division is said to have the right to expropriate?" If that's the case, I have a reluctant request. I also have a son and a daughter in Fanyang's hometown, taught by their uncle to read, only Shiro has been with me for many years, serving the sick day and night, although filial piety is commendable, but the qualifications are not Erer, he is at most asking for a Ming Jing and the first. What I'm worried about is that he doesn't understand the officialdom and the world, so I want to implore Du Shiyu and Pei Yushi to take him there. ”

Lu Qi suddenly made such a request, and Pei Ning couldn't help but hesitate a little. He naturally admires the character and ability of this governor of Yazhou, but although he is Du Shiyi's senior brother, this kind of thing cannot be arrogant. Therefore, he set his sights on Du Shiyi.

And Du Shiyi was stunned for a moment, and hahadaxiao said: "Lu Dudu said this, I really can't ask for it."

You must know that the entire tea introduction division is from scratch, and he needs a lot of manpower, even if Lu Cong can't say that he is the top of the sè, but the quality of honesty can sometimes overshadow the talent and qualifications

reluctantly agreed, and the four words that can't be asked for are really worlds apart. As a result, Lu Qi felt relieved. His career has not ended, it is already because today's son has almost cleaned up the old people who had his heart for Ruizong, and an insignificant person like him can be let go. Therefore, he is also at ease with his foreign appointment. Nowadays, it is not impossible to entrust his son to the old Korea, but he also needs someone to support him, and he needs someone to guide him. How many of those elders who have only seen Lu Cong when he was a teenager, or even just Lu Cong when he was a child, will really ask him in every detail?

If a person is too honest, it is easy to be instigated by others in officialdom

For the time being, the matter was limited to the three parties involved, and no one else knew about it. And after breakfast, Du Shiyi looked at the weather that was still pouring rain, and asked Pei Ning to play chess to relieve his boredom, someone outside reported that a businessman surnamed Zhao took several businessmen to ask for a meeting, and said that he had made an appointment with Haode in advance. Knowing that Zhao Guansheng was really here, Du Shiyi saw Pei Ning's hesitation, so he smiled and said: "Since the third senior brother doesn't want to see him, why don't you go and talk to Lu Dudu, I'll do it for me."

Pei Ning really didn't bother to deal with such an insatiable businessman, since Du Shiyi took the initiative to take care of the matter, he opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't force himself, nodded and left the house. If he goes to see it, I'm afraid that it won't be long before he will be angry with that kind of guy and leave, so it's better to save things than this

As soon as he left, Du Shiyi flicked the corner of his coat and stood up, but he called Chibi in and whispered a few words to him. When this henchman understood and went to do things according to the rules, he Shi Shiran went out, but instead of going outside to see people, he went straight to the private residence of Sima Yang Xuanyan in Yazhou. Sure enough, he just let people inform, and after a while, he saw a small figure rushing out like a gust of wind.

"Master, Master"

"Well, it seems that your illness is really cured, you run fast and your voice is loud"

Du Shiyi teased jokingly, but Yunu pouted his mouth and said sullenly: "The master left without saying a word, and he didn't say a word to me, which made me worry for a long time, if it weren't for the teacher's ......"

When she said this, she suddenly covered her mouth, looked around, and found that the maids were not there, so she whispered: "If it weren't for the master lady telling me that it would be fine, I would definitely grind Grandpa and let someone take me to you."

"How can there be so many things, don't think about it in the future"

Du Shiyi knew that this trip to bring the jade slave to Yazhou was already the end, and then he would go to other states, and then go out of Shu to Jiangnan, and it was absolutely impossible to take this unintentional disciple with him. So, he was dragged by the happy jade slave, and enjoyed Yang Xuanyan's private mansion that was not a big official at all, and then went to teach the little girl to practice the pipa for a long time, and when he coaxed the jade slave back to the room to practice this song in a somewhat stern tone, Chu Han, who he had repeatedly taught, was finally able to get out, but it was someone who called Chen Bao'er.

The first two were in Yejiazhai, and he didn't bring Chen Bao'er with him, so when Chen Bao'er rushed over at this time, he could clearly tell that the young man's face was clearly a little relieved. He didn't explain much, but just asked, "What do you think of those people when you see them?" ”

"Back to Master Du, they seemed to be a little impatient and restless, and frequently asked me what Master Du was now and when they would be able to find time to meet them. The merchant surnamed Zhao also gave me this, he should have regarded me as Du Shi's waiter. Chen Bao'er opened his palm, and there was a small grain of gold in it, enough to ⊥ countless people's hearts and even heartbeats, "He asked me how Master Du was feeling, and I told him that Master Du only came back yesterday afternoon and was a little tired, so he shouldn't see people immediately." ”

"I knew you knew how to speak." Du Shiyi smiled and nodded at him, and then ordered, "Now follow me to meet someone." In a moment, you take notes as appropriate, remembering that you can't miss a single point of the key word. ”

"Yes, Master Du."
