In the morning, he sent someone to deliver Ruyi Lu to the shop, and Li Yi could enjoy his vacation.
The weather was good today. It was early autumn, and the leaves had not fallen yet. There was not much of a bleak feeling on the mountain. The shouts of the naughty children filled the gentle grassy slope.
As a teacher, Qin Qing was much more responsible than Li Yi. She taught seriously every day. It was rare for the naughty children to have a day of extracurricular activities. They ran happily on a small grassy slope by the stream, revealing their lively nature.
Qin Qing stood not far away and smiled as she watched the naughty children. After spending time with them, her impression of the naughty and mischievous children had greatly changed. They now truly looked like a female teacher.
Not far away from her, Liu Xiaohu was playing a role-playing game with a group of boys. He liked to play the role of Sun Wukong the most. He brandished a wooden stick with great vigor. The other naughty children watched from the side, their eyes filled with envy.
According to the story of Journey to the West, the chubby naughty child who played the role of Buddha was supposed to subdue him and press him under the "Five Finger Mountain". However, when he saw how powerful the stick was, he immediately hid far away and did not dare to get close.
"Xiaohu, be careful. Don't hit the others." Qin Qing warned him from afar. Liu Xiaohu responded, threw down the stick, and ran away with the naughty children.
About a hundred feet up the grassy slope, Li Yi had already used a bamboo stick to skewer the meat, brushed it with sauce, and placed it on an iron rack. Below the rack was a burning charcoal fire.
The fragrance of roasted meat spread everywhere. Not far away, Fang, who was roasting fish caught from the stream on the fire with a few men, silently swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He decisively handed the fat fish he had just skewered to someone else, ran to Li Yi's side, and sat down. He gave Li Yi a silly smile, and stared at the roasting rack, unwilling to move his eyes away.
Further away, the women of the village gathered together and laughed. After a while, Xiao Huan ran over and ran to Li Yi's side. In a soft voice, she said, "Young master, the second miss asked if the meat is ready …"
"Let her wait a little longer." Li Yi poked at the charcoal fire with a wooden stick. Haste makes waste. Roasting meat required patience. Miss.Liu, on the other hand, was free. All she needed to do was to open her mouth. Li Yi himself, on the other hand, had become a free roaster.
"Oh," the young maidservant replied. Just as she was about to run over, Liu Xiaohu and a group of naughty children ran over excitedly.
"Sir, sir!" Liu Xiaohu handed over a small white thing in his hand and said, "Sir, sir, we just caught a rabbit. Sir, please roast it."
When Fang saw the rabbit, his eyes lit up. Rabbit meat was tender and delicious. In the past, when he was a teenager like this, he had secretly roasted it many times. However, there was one time when he accidentally burned his clothes. When he returned home, his parents pressed him down on the kang bed and gave him a good spanking. Since then, he hadn't eaten it again.
Li Yi took the rabbit that was not much bigger than his palm. This rabbit didn't seem to have much meat. Roasting it wouldn't even be enough to fill the gaps between his teeth. Furthermore, it was such a white and soft little thing. He really couldn't bear to do it.
At this time, he felt someone tugging on his sleeve. He turned his head and saw that the young maidservant's eyes were full of pleading. "Young master, don't eat this little rabbit, okay …"
Li Yi had never been immune to the young maidservant's coquettish attacks. He stuffed the rabbit into her arms and said, "Alright, alright. I won't eat it. You can take it and play with it."
The young maidservant carried the rabbit away happily. Fang's face revealed a regretful expression … Rabbit meat was really delicious …
…
"Excuse me, where does Li Yi live?"
In the Willow Leaf Village, a young and handsome man stopped a villager and asked.
"Who are you people?" The man looked at these strangers and asked with a vigilant face.
The village was isolated from the outside world. On normal days, outsiders would rarely come here. This young man was dressed luxuriously and had an extraordinary temperament. The men behind him had weapons on their waists. At first glance, one could tell that they were not ordinary people. Why did these people appear in the village?
"Don't be nervous. I am Li Yi's friend. I have something to discuss with him." The young man said with a smile.
The man looked suspiciously at the handsome young man in front of him. Seeing that he didn't seem to have any evil intentions, he pointed to the front and said, "The young master is not at home right now. Walk along this road. After about a quarter of an hour, you will see a small stream. You can find him there."
"Thank you!"
The young man cupped his hands and led the few people to walk in the direction pointed by the man.
The man looked at the backs of the few people walking away. He scratched his head and turned to do his own things.
Regardless of the purpose of these strangers, they couldn't delay the young master's business. If they didn't have evil intentions, it would be fine. But if they had bad intentions, they would be seeking death in their own territory …
"Young master, slow down, slow down."
A middle-aged fat man followed behind the young man with his forehead full of sweat. After walking such a long mountain road, it was a little hard for him to bear with his physical strength.
The fat man's surname was Wang. He was a housekeeper of Ning Wang Fu. He single-handedly managed the outside business of the Wang Fu.
This time, he came with the young master to discuss the cooperation of Ruyi Lu.
This Housekeeper Wang had long heard of the Ruyi Lu that had become popular in Qing 'an recently. This was an elegant business and was suitable for Ning Wang Fu. He had been thinking about when to ask his superiors if he should intervene in this business.
However, he hadn't thought that this young master, who idled around all day and did nothing but work, would also take care of these matters. He immediately had him build a workshop and arrange for people. After a series of orders, the housekeeper was slightly dumbfounded.
This was a good thing for the Wang Fu. After all, no matter if it was a commoner or a noble, no one would say no to money. Especially when he saw the strong wine that the young master took out, Housekeeper Wang's eyes began to shine.
This wasn't strong wine, this was clearly shining silver.
However, the workshop was built in the Wang Fu, the people were provided by the Wang Fu, and the goods were sold by the Wang Fu. In the end, the profits had to be split fifty-fifty. In this world, no one dared to do business with Ning Wang Fu like this.
The young master didn't understand these things and casually agreed. He turned his head and ordered the servants of the Wang Fu to do it. However, as the housekeeper of the Wang Fu, he had to maximize the profits of the Wang Fu. He couldn't agree to such an absurd method of distribution.
The reason why Housekeeper Wang insisted on coming this time was because of this matter.
He really wanted to see who had the guts to even dare to take advantage of Ning Wang Fu … …
By the stream, Fang didn't know how much saliva he swallowed. Just as he was about to take the first skewer of meat that Li Yi handed over to him, a slender white hand suddenly appeared and snatched the meat skewer before he could.
Under Fang's stunned gaze, the handsome young master bit into the meat skewer. There was a surprised expression on his face as he praised, "Delicious!"
