Now Hu Yi, Hu Er, Li Liu, and Li Jiu are no longer in the village guard team. At that time, they earned three to five hundred taels of silver per month. Now they earn dozens of taels of silver per month. In this era, they They have all entered the high-paying class.
No shopkeeper in Beijing can get such a high monthly salary. They are now all senior officials of the Northern Bureau. Besides, these named guards are all Li Miao's old supporters. They are not only highly skilled in martial arts but also loyal. How could Li Miao not treat him kindly?
If they take a slave daughter-in-law, Li Liu and Li Jiu are considered to be members of Li Miao's clan, and Hu Yi and Hu Er are from the same village, so they are considered relatives by marriage. Although they all surrendered to Li Miao's disciples. Li Miao didn't dare to treat them as servants. Otherwise, Li Miao would be stabbed in the spine. The power of public opinion in this era is quite remarkable.
So Wang Yonggui began to write letters to the homes of Hu Yi and Hu Er. Although it's not a big problem if they don't ask for their opinions, why bother? Wang Yonggui did everything right, and Li Miao was very worry-free.
During the day, he and Li Shi went out for a walk, flipping through books, looking at the scenery of the capital, and of course feeling the state of spiritual consciousness. Li Miao found that the degree of suppression was different in different places. The closer we got to the palace, the more severe the suppression became.
In addition, the suppression of spiritual consciousness is also related to the status of nearby people. Noble families such as the Royal Palace and the Duke's Palace suppress their own spiritual consciousness. Officials' mansions often suppress their spiritual consciousness. It seems to be related to the status of their mansion in the Dazheng Dynasty. Sometimes Li Miao even knows if there are any dignitaries nearby just by sensing his spiritual consciousness.
Of course, Li Miao has never failed to write books silently. Whenever I have free time, I write books silently. I have added a few more books to my family's collection of books. I know writing books by voice is a multi-purpose thing, so why would I give them up? Occasionally, I will point out Li Shi’s articles.
Qiu Sheng is now like the hostess, and she is the only woman around Li Miao. Originally, Qiu Sheng wanted to arrange another maid for the young master, but Li Miao was determined not to. The key point was that he didn't like her and had no affinity with her. Qiu Sheng also knew that the young master had dual cultivation skills and would not easily acquire a woman.
There were a total of five maids in the backyard. Qiu Sheng gave the best girl named Xiaodong to Wang Yonggui's concubine. She was said to be quite young. She was nearly forty years old and had a good relationship with Wang Yonggui. Otherwise, I wouldn't have stayed with you forever. Wang Yonggui did not give up even though he became an official slave. Maybe it was for Wang Daoqi's consideration that he never renewed his relationship.
Through observation of Li Miao, he found that although Qiu Sheng's cultural level was not high, he was very good at doing things, and he was a person who could observe people's words and emotions. He would definitely be a figure in the future workplace. However, women in this world are the vassals of men and cannot exert their due abilities. He can only take care of the backyard. Now the backyard of Li Miao's house in Beijing is empty. Qiu Sheng can only take care of the maid now.
Qiu Sheng is really happy now. He just received a letter from home a few days ago. His brother has gone to Jinling to work as a guard, and his father has also begun to learn to manage the farm. It's a bit like one person attaining the Tao of chicken and dog ascending to heaven.
You said that Qiu Sheng is now being favored exclusively by Li Miao in the capital. Can she not take care of her relatives at home? These things were arranged by the general manager Li Qiang, and the letter from Qiu Sheng's family was also written with the help of the general manager Li Qiang. It seems that Li Qiang has made great progress!
Of course Qiu Sheng also cares about these things, but she cares more about the young master's feelings, which is the basis of everything. Gradually, Qiu Sheng discovered that the young master was not someone who loved the new and disliked the old. On the contrary, the young master was very nostalgic for the old. At first, he was worried that the young master would neglect him once the freshness wore off. Now, the young master has always been very kind to him, and he doesn't seem to treat a maid at all. It's normal for my wife.
Li Miao really has modern thinking at work. Without treating Qiu Sheng as a human being, you said that the woman you live with all the time is still your partner who practices double cultivation every day. How could you not be kind? So Qiu Sheng was so happy that he didn't want anything.
Qiu Sheng wished that time would stop as soon as possible. Sometimes Qiu Sheng also thought that if the young master failed to pass the Jinshi examination this time, he could come to the capital with him again. Although I think this is not good, I still can't help but think so.
At night, I held Qiu Sheng in my arms, even though Li Miao didn't dare to use the dual cultivation technique. The normal balance of yin and yang is still no problem. The harmony of yin and yang does little to improve Qiu Sheng's marrow-cleansing and pulse-cutting realm. At Qiu Sheng's level, Li Miao probably wouldn't be able to cleanse the marrow and cut the pulses perfectly even if he used dual cultivation techniques.
Li Miao just thought about it, and he didn't dare to try. Seeing Qiu Sheng beside him wandering around in a daze, he suddenly had a bad taste and began to unleash his trump card. After a while, the effect was obvious. As expected, Qiu Sheng, who was wandering far away, swam over to Li Miao very quickly.
And he swam over quite eagerly, so Li Miao was done, and his suppressed gasping sound was breathtaking. Soon the two sides were at peace with each other.
Now Li Miao has given up the idea of getting the twelve golden hairpins. To be honest, it's not that he doesn't want to, but that his status is out of reach. He just comes to the door when he raises someone. If you are not a relative or a friend, you have to make people willing to take care of you. Judging from the situation on Rongning Street, Rongning Second Mansion is still good to the tribesmen and neighbors, at least they do not bully the weak.
I wonder if Xue Baochai is fifteen years old now? I was startled by the thoughts that came to my mind.
Li Miao didn't want to get involved in her karma. More than a year ago, he also saw a briefing from the court from his father-in-law's house, saying that Xue Pan was fighting for a girl on the street. The slaves were allowed to commit murder and killed the squire Feng Yuan. Only then did they learn that this was the world of Red Mansions. The Xue family was an imperial merchant, his father was dead, and Xue Pan was one, two hundred and fifty.
His family property is rich, estimated to be several million taels of silver. He is like a child walking on the street holding a gold ingot. Virtue is not matched and cannot be maintained. The Xue family knows it too. So the family entered the capital. He fled to the Jia Mansion and sought asylum from the Jia Mansion. You may also know that the sun is setting in Jia's house, but there is nothing you can do about it. A drowning person will hold on tightly even if he grabs a life-saving straw.
Xue family, the key is not that business management is bad, the key is that there is no backend. Li Miao was still used to Luo Ji's thinking, he thought. The person who really wants to seize the Xue family's property is Aunt Xue's brother, Wang Ziteng, the governor of Beijing Camp.
Otherwise, why didn't the Xue family go to Beijing to seek refuge with their own brother? As the business governor, Wang Ziteng should have more power. Moreover, Wang Ziteng also needed the financial resources of the Xue family. He inherited the military power of the Jia family, but the financial resources were not enough. Wouldn't it be better for my sister and grandson to seek refuge with their uncle?
It's not that Wang Ziteng can't, but he doesn't want to take anything by force and is afraid of affecting his official reputation, so when the Xue family is desperate and comes to seek refuge with him, he can do it easily. In any era, interests always come first. This is especially true for ruthless people. Can Wang Ziteng not be ruthless? Otherwise, how could he take over Jia's military power?
Therefore, the cause and effect of the Xue family is very big, and Wang Ziteng is now in the court, showing an upward trend, and the emperor is also wooing him. There is chaos in the court now, with the Supreme Emperor's faction, the Emperor's faction, and the middle faction, no matter what era. Most of them are centrists, who can attack when they advance and defend when they retreat. It is safest to be a centrist.
But some people are already in the game. no way. Like Ning Rong's Second Mansion. Of course, there are also some speculators who join in. There is no shortage of gamblers in any era. For example, if I continue to develop like this, I may be a fourth-grade official at most. If he was right, he could make a bet. Of course, a high-ranking official would have to do it. He thought he must be right.
