Traveling to an ancient peasant family: I got rich by doing business

Emperor Tianyuan was very satisfied with Han Zheng's answer.

Although Han Zheng said he did not want to get married too early, he also said that he "cannot and dare not deceive."

The five words "can't and dare not" reveal Han Zheng's loyalty and awe of him.

Not bad!

Emperor Tianyuan smiled broadly, "Are you sure you don't want to get married? I have a princess who is about your age."

Han Zheng understood what he meant and knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I have not had any intention of getting married in recent years."

Emperor Tianyuan: "Han Qing, many opportunities are gone once they are missed. You must think clearly."

Han Zheng stared at the floor and said, "In the past few years, I have only wanted to repay your majesty for his kindness."

Emperor Tianyuan: “…” Apart from anything else, these words really make people feel comfortable.

Okay, if you don't want to, forget it.

In the barbecue restaurant, Li Yu persuaded five more matchmakers to leave.

The matchmakers didn't want to leave, but Li Yu was the top scholar's sister-in-law and had connections in Beijing, so they didn't dare to make trouble and could only leave unwillingly.

In addition to the matchmaker, there were also several people who sent their daughters to be Han Zheng's concubines.

In a normal family, who would send their daughter to be a concubine for no reason? For this kind of situation, Li Yu didn't even beat around the bush and directly drove the person out.

Unwilling to be rejected, she went home and took her daughter to wait outside the barbecue restaurant, hoping to meet Han Zheng by chance.

"This Boss Li is only the sister-in-law of the number one scholar, her words don't count. We won't listen to her. Wait for the number one scholar to come and talk to him. You are so beautiful, he will definitely like you. My daughter, our family's wealth and glory depends on you." A sly man "taught earnestly" to his daughter.

Boss Li opened two stores. In the future, his daughter would become the number one scholar's concubine. All he had to do was to save some money, which would be enough for his family to spend.

A woman standing next to the man heard this and agreed with it, so she started to educate her daughter.

Inside the store, Li Yu heard these arguments and said nothing.

These people want to see Han Zheng, so if they are asked to wait, she can guarantee that they will not be able to see him even if they wait for half a month.

Because she had already expected that someone would do this, she had already told Han Zheng that he didn't need to come again during these days.

But even if I tell these people, they definitely won't believe it, so just let them do as they please.

*

The store was busy for several days.

Some people saw that Li Yu's way was not working, so they went to Li Yu's house and tried to talk to Han Zheng directly.

But Han Zheng had been busy these days and left early every day, so they couldn't find him at all.

Finally can only give up.

There were also a few who were really unwilling to give up and turned to other Jinshi in the capital.

But these have nothing to do with Li Yu.

*

Two days later, Han Zheng was appointed as an official, just like the previous top scorers, and became an editor in the Hanlin Academy, a sixth-rank official.

Also appointed to official positions with him were the runner-up Yang Shunzhou and the third-place Huang Zhuting. These two were also in the Hanlin Academy, but they were both editors of the Hanlin Academy, one level lower than Han Zheng, and were officials of the seventh rank.

As for Qi Wangnian and Lu Sheng, the two second- and third-class Jinshi, they either had to take another exam to become Shujishi of the Hanlin Academy, or wait for the court to grant them official positions.

For example, Qi Wangnian ranked second, so even if he didn't take the exam, he would have a good chance of staying in the capital. But Lu Sheng ranked third, so if he didn't take the exam, he would have to be sent out to be a county magistrate.

After listening to what Han Zheng said, Li Yu felt it was quite troublesome.

Fortunately, the imperial examination is over, and I don’t have to take the exam for nine days and six nights again.

*

The two chatted about family matters. Finally, Li Yu folded up Han Zheng's official uniform and handed it to him. He asked casually, "When you were appointed as an official, did you tell me when to report to the Hanlin Academy?"

Han Zheng said, "It's tentatively scheduled for July. I have two months of home leave. Sister-in-law, are we going back?"

Li Yu thought for a moment and said, "Let's go back."

This was Han Zheng's longest vacation before he entered the court. After he entered the court, unless it was a major event, it would be difficult for him to have such a long vacation, so he decided to go back.

Han Zheng asked: "When are we leaving?"

Li Yu: "How about seven days later? I'll arrange some things here and buy some things from the capital to take back." They have been here for so long, so they have to bring some local specialties for Aunt Wu and the others.

Han Zheng nodded.

*

Going home is an important matter, so Li Yu first asked Mrs. Cheng, Mrs. Zhu, and Mrs. Yan.

"If everyone wants to go back, let's go together. It will be safe on the road." Li Yu said.

"Xiao Nan and I won't go back." Madam Yan was the first to reply, "The journey is long, and the weather is getting hot. Xiao Nan is young, so we shouldn't let him go on the bumpy road."

Li Yu understood her and nodded in agreement.

He turned to look at Zhu and Cheng.

Zhu and Pei Mingzhu and her father stood together. Pei Mingzhu spoke on behalf of the family of three: "Sister Li, we are not going back either. When we were in the village, we were outsiders and our relationship with the villagers was not that good. Even if we go back, we can't do anything."

Li Yu understood what she meant and nodded.

Finally, it was Cheng and Han Rong, mother and daughter.

Cheng said, "Let's go back."

The anniversary of her family's head's death is approaching, and she wants to go back to pay her respects.

Li Yu: "Then we will leave in seven days. You should prepare well in the next few days."

Cheng agreed.

*

After confirming the people, Li Yu started to arrange things in the store.

The round trip takes about forty days. If they stay at home for ten days, it will be about fifty days before they return.

It took too long and the store was suddenly short of five people, so she had to fill in.

The most important one was the barbecue restaurant. The hotpot restaurant would be fine with Auntie Tian watching over it. As for the barbecue restaurant, once she and Lu Xuan left, there was a lack of a manager.

Li Yu thought about it for a long time and found Mrs. Yan that night.

*

"You want me to be the manager of the barbecue restaurant?" Mrs. Yan raised her eyebrows.

Li Yu said: "Yes, madam, are you willing?"

Of course Madam Yan was willing. She used to be in charge of the Censorate, and she managed such a large mansion in an orderly manner, let alone a barbecue restaurant.

"But how will we settle the accounts if I leave?" Madam Yan said, "We can't let Mingzhu settle the accounts alone."

Li Yu said: "I will borrow someone from Princess Jianing, Madam, you don't have to worry about it."

Mrs. Yan smiled immediately, "Okay, I'll take over this barbecue restaurant. But I have to remind you of one thing, summer is coming, and it's too hot to eat barbecue, and some customers might dislike it."

Li Yu said: "It doesn't matter. If the guests don't want to grill, we will grill it for them and serve it. I have newly ordered grill boxes, grill plates and a batch of bamboo sticks. We can sell grilled meat like grilled sausages and grilled gluten. I have written down the types and prices. When the time comes, everyone can just make it.

But if we bake it ourselves, the guys will be a little tired, and when I come back, every guy in the store will get a bonus. "

Madam Yan was relieved when she heard this: "Then I'll do as you say."

*

At the hot pot restaurant, Nanny Tian didn't say much, but she was also worried about the business.

Li Yu directly handed over a menu.

If people don’t want to eat hot pot in summer, they sell malatang.

Nanny Tian thought it was feasible and felt relieved.

*

After arranging these two sides, the only thing left is to borrow people from Princess Jianing.

This was a small matter, and when Li Yu brought it up, Princess Jianing called someone out, "Madame Tian told me that you were going back, so I made arrangements in advance."

In addition to the accountant, there are also several helpers.

It's very thoughtful.

Li Yu was not polite and thanked her sincerely.

At this point, the matters in the store were almost resolved. Li Yu took a look and finally went to Mr. Su.
