Artai is too young, Old Man Li is too old, Shopkeeper Guo is from the Guo family, and many of the other people I know are taking the imperial examination route, which is not suitable.
Thinking this, Xie Yanzhi turned his attention to Cao Zhi again.
This person has a wide network of connections and is loyal, and he also has a sharp mind. If he can help, that would be great!
Cao Zhi was not in a hurry to leave. He was well-informed and knew that Li Yuan was going to take the Li clan members to Luyang Mansion.
It was also clear that Chen Yang and Xie Yanzhi had reached some kind of agreement and would help take in so many people from the Li clan.
This was a bad year, and he knew the environment of Liuyun County and the situation upstream better than anyone else, so he left.
It's just that he is a figure in Liuyun County, but in this city, he is really nothing.
If there is no one to protect you, it will be very difficult to develop in a big way.
He wanted to follow Xie Yanzhi. He had this idea a long time ago.
He felt that now was a good opportunity, so he wanted to fight for himself.
Seeing Xie Yanzhi looking at him, he asked: "Brother Xie looks at me like this, does he need my help? You said, as long as I can do it for you, Brother Cao, I will definitely help you."
Xie Yanzhi waited for his words and was not afraid that he would take his money and run away, so he said, "I really need your help, Brother Cao!"
Cao Zhi's heart moved when he heard this, and his whole body became much more energetic at that moment.
"Brother, just say it!"
"Brother Cao, I'm going to Luyang Mansion to buy two big mountains in the name of buying Yuan Niang's dowry. Master Chen has arranged everything, just wait for my money to come over. The world is a little chaotic due to natural disasters, I'm leaving now If you don’t open it, you won’t be at ease no matter who you call. Brother Cao is the only one who has the real ability, and you have many brothers. I want to ask you to come..."
Cao Zhi thought it was something, but when he heard that he was just going to Luyang Mansion with the money, he immediately agreed.
If possible, he would also like to help take care of the two mountains there.
"No problem! I wonder when Brother Xian wants to set off? Also, what do you want to do with buying two mountains? Are there suitable people to help take care of them? If not, Brother Xian, what do you think of your brother and me? "
Xie Yanzhi had a good relationship with Chen Yang, and the fact that Chen Yang was now a colleague of Luyang Mansion made it worthwhile for him to go over.
Generally speaking, officials in Yun State are assessed every three years.
Even if Chen Yang is transferred away in three years, he doesn't have to panic.
He didn't even talk about his relationship with Chen Yang by then, but he said that Xie Yanzhi himself, with his ability, should be a Jinshi or one of the top three, and be on duty in the Imperial Academy.
Three years later, relying on his relationship with the Protector General's Mansion in the capital and his wife's aunt's family, he could continue to be a capital official no matter what.
What's more, he has a quick mind, can follow along, and can't make a difference in assignments. No matter what, he is better than living in the small Liuyun County.
Xie Yanzhi was so smart. When he saw Cao Zhi's abnormal reaction, he thought about it for a moment and understood what was going on.
"The earlier the better, of course. Brother Cao has just arrived in Fucheng today, why don't we rest for two days first? As for those two mountains, the climate there is suitable for growing tea. I want to open them as tea gardens."
"I haven't found the person to help with the care yet. I need Mr. Chen to help me find it. Although the other two mountains were bought in the name of Yuanniang's dowry, if I pass the provincial examination then, she will have to follow. Enter Beijing."
"Brother Cao is very capable, and his business is big. To abandon this place and go all the way to Luyang Mansion to help me manage two mountains would be a bit overkill..."
When Cao Zhi heard this, he knew that Xie Yanzhi also meant this, so he said bluntly: "People who come from a small place and crawl around in the market as a child, no matter how powerful they are, they can only be in a three-acre land. Now in this city, Nothing. My dear brother is very capable, I want to do things for my dear brother, and I hope my dear brother will give me a chance."
Cao Zhi's words were very straightforward. Xie Yanzhi looked at him seriously and saw that he was sincere, so he said: "Brother Cao, I can ask you to help me go to Luyang Mansion, or I can ask you to temporarily help take care of the two buildings." Shan. But after Yuan Niang arrives, the decision-making power will be in her hands whether you can gain her approval and whether she should use you. I won't interfere. "
Cao Zhi had also dealt with Li Yuan and was confident that he could take the position of managing two mountains. After hearing this, he said: "Brother Xian is a person who does big things. There is no need to trouble Brother Xian with such small things. You are busy, I will Go back and rest first, then come back in two days."
He had to go back to settle his family, and when he arrived at Luyang Mansion, he would first help take care of the tea garden.
After Li Yuan comes, you don't have to worry so much.
And he, with a firm footing, could take over his family.
By then, the world should not be so chaotic!
Lijia'ao
Because tomorrow is the tenth day of the Lunar New Year and we have to leave, everyone in Lijiaao is extremely busy today.
Some are steaming sweet potatoes and want to eat them on the road.
Some had tears in their eyes and reluctantly touched the entire house.
Others, with confusion in their eyes, wondered what the Luyang Mansion would be like after leaving this time, and whether they could live well there.
Some people are even worried about what will happen when this journey passes, and what the situation is like outside.
Li Yuan and Wang Can were the most leisurely people in the entire Lijia'ao because they were well prepared and had space.
All the belongings of the Li family were put into the space. The carriage was symbolically filled with some rice noodles, oilcloth, pots and pans, medicinal materials, and thin quilts.
It seems that the carriage is very full, but in fact it is very empty. If you push it gently, you can free up a lot of space.
Wang Can sat on the threshold of the main room, looking at the plants and trees in the house, with a sense of sadness and helplessness in his eyes.
"Sister, our family has spent a lot of money from last year to now. Not to mention other things, just thanks to my brother for building this house, we spent a lot of money. And the well and the fire bed..."
Li Yuan is the calmest one!
In her opinion, as long as human life is alive, everything else is external. All the money has been spent, so there is no point in talking about it.
Seeing Wang Can like this, he said: "Can Niang, let's go to Uncle Hua and see who is riding in those ox carts. Have you decided on what time to set off? Although it is the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, it is the first hour of the Lunar New Year. Ten, as long as everything is packed properly, you can leave early, there is no need to waste anything."
Wang Can, who was feeling sentimental, also knew the urgency of time, so he stood up and patted his clothes: "Okay, shall we just drive the carriage over?"
"No, you can come later!"
"good!"
When Li Yuan arrived at Li Qinghua's house, she saw Li Qinghua and the elders of the Li clan discussing the rules on the road.
She stood nearby and listened for a while, then nodded repeatedly.
After they had discussed it, they heard her say: "Uncle Hua, tell everyone these ugly things before you leave, so as not to make trouble later if you don't admit it."
