Chapter 1158: The Boiled Duck Flies
"I didn't think much of it at the time...... But since this business has been taken over, I will finish the work as soon as possible, and when I have money, I will buy new clothes for Cai'er."
Jing Cai'er didn't want to say much when she thought about her father for her own sake, but in her heart, she thought the same as Chen Ziang, this Li family didn't have a good heart!
Before I knew it, three days had passed.
In addition to teaching Jing Cai'er to cultivate Dou Qi every day, Chen Ziang tried to condense Dou Qi by himself, there were joys and worries, the worry was that the Dou Qi in the body had not progressed, and the joy was that Jing Cai'er's cultivation speed was very fast, and in just three days, he broke through to the second stage of Dou Qi, and it would not take long for him to reach the realm of Dou Qi and become a formal martial artist.
Of course, this is also because Chen Ziang provided some elixirs to speed up his cultivation, but Jing Cai'er herself is also very hard-working.
Jing Changgui went to the Li family to work as scheduled, but Chen Ziang reminded him to work more carefully, in order not to let the Li family find fault.
"Daughter, Dad bought you new clothes" Jing Changgui happily took the new clothes he bought with labor money and handed them to his daughter.
"Thank you, Dad" Jing Caier smiled like a flower when she saw the new clothes, although she never took the initiative to let her father buy clothes, because she was more sensible, but what girl doesn't love beauty?
Jing Caier walked into the house after taking the clothes, walked out after changing her clothes, and stared at Chen Ziang a little nervously, "Uncle, what do you think?" β
"Cai'er people are beautiful and look good in whatever clothes they wear," Chen Ziang praised.
"Hee-hee, uncle's mouth is so sweet" Jing Cai'er's heart was as sweet as honey.
The night was dark, and after dinner, the sky was black, and the night had arrived.
There was a sharp knock outside the door, and the force almost knocked the wooden door down.
"Who? It's coming, it's coming" Jing Changgui was already about to go to bed, and after hearing the voice, he got up and went to open the door, Chen Ziang said to Cai'er vigilantly, "Cai'er, you just stay in the room and don't come out"
"Hmm," Jing Cai'er nodded solemnly.
After the door opened, Jing Changgui saw more than ten people standing outside the door, among which the one standing at the front was Li Xun, the son of the Li family, and those behind him were the guards of the Li family, which could also be called doglegs.
"Li Gongzi, why do you come to the cold house so late?" Jing Changgui already felt bad in his heart, but he still held out a smile.
"Let me ask you, did you give me any serious work today?" Li Xun scolded with wide eyes.
"Where is Li Gongzi, I, Jing Changgui, have always been known for being careful in my work, plus the wood you gave today is a good golden silk nanmu, how dare I not be serious?" Jing Changgui hurriedly explained.
"You also know that it is the best golden silk nanmu, then let me ask you, why I see that every piece of furniture has cracks, and you dare to say that you are careful as a carpenter!" Li Xun increased his voice, in order to put more psychological pressure on Jing Changgui.
"Cracks? No way! I also specially checked before leaving, the pieces of furniture I hit today are all perfect, how can there be cracks, Li Gongzi, don't joke with the little one" Jing Changgui smiled, he did check it again, as an old carpenter and careful, how could there be cracks in every piece of furniture.
"You mean Childe, I'm okay to fool you?" Li Xun asked coldly.
"This ......" Li Xun didn't know how to answer, no matter what he said, he was offending people, and the Li Gongzi in front of him was the person he couldn't afford to offend, and he had already begun to regret taking this job.
"Since you have to lose money if you mess up the work, my golden silk nanmu is the best of the best, do you want my Li family to use the crooked melon and jujube furniture you made as a faΓ§ade, and disgrace my Li family's face?" Li Xun was aggressive.
"Lose money" Jing Changgui's eyes widened, those golden silk nanmu were used by rich and noble people, how could he afford to pay as a carpenter.
"That's right, lose money! These golden silk nanmu cost a total of two hundred and ten gold, and you may have unintentionally subtracted ten gold for you, which means that you have to pay Gongzi me two hundred gold coins," Li Xunyin said with a smile.
"Li Gongzi, you don't have that much money even if you sell me" Jing Changgui's brain went blank after hearing this number, two hundred gold was an astronomical amount for him.
"None? It's easy to do if you don't, I heard that you have a daughter, you can marry your daughter to my son, and then you will be my father-in-law, not only will I not embarrass you, but I will also give you a large sum of money as a bride price, what do you think? Li Xun said with a smile, it seemed that he was thinking about Jing Changgui all the time.
The dog leg beside Li Xun said, "Jing Changgui, don't you thank Li Gongzi for his kindness, where can you find a son-in-law like Li Gongzi?" β
Jing Changgui knows very well that if his daughter marries Li Xun, there will be no good life after that, Li Xun is a well-known stubborn, not only does not learn but also eats, drinks, prostitutes, gambles, and does everything, he would rather marry his daughter to an ordinary person than marry someone like him.
Seeing Jing Changgui's hesitation, Li Xun's face immediately changed, and he said with a gloomy face, "Either you will pay me two hundred gold coins, or you will marry your daughter to me, you can choose one of these two paths, but I don't have that much patience, if you can't give me an answer before dawn, you will bear the consequences!" β
Jing Changgui really wanted to cry without tears at the moment, he knew that he had fallen into the trap of the Li family, he wanted to resist, but how could he fight Li Xun as an ordinary person, he was not just a person, the backer behind him was the entire Li family.
At this time, a voice came out slowly, "How much should I pay, only two hundred gold?" I gave! β
Everyone looked inside the house together, and Chen Ziang walked out of the house unhurriedly, looking at the people outside the house with disdain.
"Who are you?" Jing Changgui frowned, seeing that he was about to achieve his goal, but suddenly a person broke a good thing.
He had met Chen Ziang before, but now that Chen Ziang was no longer sloppy, he couldn't recognize him at all.
"It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that you don't disturb me if you're okay, okay?" Chen Ziang said and took out a bag, which contained two hundred gold coins.
Li Xun motioned to his subordinates to take the money bag, and after counting it, he confirmed that there were indeed two hundred gold coins in it, and after counting it clearly, his face became even more gloomy, because what he wanted was not these two hundred gold coins but Jing Changgui's daughter, he knew that Jing Changgui would not be able to take out these two hundred gold no matter what, so he designed to frame him, but he didn't expect to see the boiled duck....... flew.
