The cannon fodder fake prince at the beginning, I won by hugging thighs

Lu Jiao was very satisfied that Liu the Shorty was so tactful, but she also understood that when the foal grew up to be a horse king, the reins would be of no use.

But she is confident that her trusted subordinates will not betray her easily.

Lu Jiao pretended to go to the backyard, but actually took out pen, ink, paper and inkstone from the space, wrote the indenture contract and asked them to sign and stamp their fingerprints.

"The servants of the Jiao family are given a new set of clothes every season. I see that the clothes you brought are not good enough. First, each of you should buy two sets of summer clothes, and then in August, buy two sets of winter clothes, one thin and one thick.

You can buy the cloth yourself or buy the finished products. Just keep good accounts.

Shut up, can you write?"

Liu Shuanzhu obviously had not yet recovered from the joy of being able to go to school.

He lowered his head, his whole body shaking with suppressed excitement.

Lu Jiao couldn't help but raise his voice and asked again.

Shorty Liu also secretly pushed him and said, "What are you standing there for, kid?"

Liu Shuanzhu raised his head and said a little embarrassedly: "I only learned the Three Character Classic and Thousand Character Classic from you."

That means you can do accounting.

"Okay, I'll leave the accounting to you. I'll review it when I come back."

"Yes! I will definitely not let you down!"

Lu Jiao pretended to come from the backyard, but actually took out a bag of one hundred taels of loose silver from the space and handed it to Liu the Shorty.

He took the silver and thought of Lu Jiao's instructions, and couldn't help but feel a little worried: "Sir, are you going to be away for so long? Can't you come back in August?"

"That's right. There's nothing to worry about. Just live your life behind closed doors. If you run into a strong man, don't fight him.

I will visit the market owner in a moment, if you have any urgent matters, you can go to him."

With Lu Jiao's assurance, Liu the Dwarf no longer had any worries and patted his chest loudly.

"Sir, don't worry!"

Lu Jiao also reminded: "Don't make friends with the Chang family, but the Yuan family is not bad."

"I understand, little one!"

He has been selling meat patties for nearly ten years, and he has learned a lot about reading people's expressions.

Naturally, it can be seen that the Chang family is just like those people who are greedy for bargains. As long as you give in a little, they will stick to you like taffy.

Lu Jiao had nothing to worry about. There was nothing valuable in the house. Even if it was temporarily occupied by someone, she would be able to get her place back when she returned.

It was just a coincidence that they met the Liu family, otherwise according to Lu Jiao's original plan, it would have been left vacant.

She held Taxue's hand and walked out of the house.

He caught a glimpse of a fleeting figure behind the Chang family's gate, and a trace of disgust appeared on his face.

Forget it, there are always a few bad apples everywhere!

Yonghefang is a residential area, but one street is still divided into a commercial area. In addition to maintaining order in the market, the owner of the market also has to collect taxes.

Therefore, the owner of the market was also appointed by the imperial court, and his official rank was seventh grade.

You must not go to visit the owner of the market empty-handed.

She first went to the pastry shop in the market town and bought two boxes of the most expensive pastries.

We have to make do with the emergency, and the taste is definitely not as good as Zhiweizhai.

I can only make do with other things.

After passing through an alley, she took out two jars of good wine from the space, which she had collected from Qinming Cottage before. If she bought them outside, it would cost at least forty taels of silver.

She asked around a bit and soon arrived at the house of the market owner.

The environment of Yonghefang is much better than that of Dunyifang. Lu Jiao originally had a good impression of Mayor Tang. When he saw that Tang's house was so low-key and not luxurious or ostentatious at all, his liking for him deepened.

After tying the horse to the pillar beside the gate, she knocked on the corner door on the Tang residence's side.

Soon, a servant opened the corner door, looked Lu Jiao up and down, and asked, "What can I do for you, sir?"

Lu Jiao bowed and said, "I am Jiao Qi, a boy. I have just come to Yonghefang and would like to pay a visit to the owner of the market."

The servant could make the decision on his own for such a request: "Come in with me!"

Lu Jiao carried the jar of wine and snacks and followed the servant obediently.

On the surface, he lowered his head and just watched the servant's heels, but in fact his mental energy was scattered everywhere, gathering information everywhere.

Because there were frequent visitors, a wing was specially prepared in the front yard of the house as a place for the owner of the market to entertain guests.

Lu Jiao gave his name, but after waiting for a moment, a middle-aged man in a brocade robe walked in.

"Meet the Lord Mayor of Tangfang!"

Tang Mingyu walked to the main seat and sat down, then gave Lu Jiao a light support.

"Young brother Jiao, you don't need to be polite. What do you want from me?"

This means getting straight to the point and not wasting time on pleasantries.

Lu Jiao was only confused for a moment, then he directly stated his purpose: "I just arrived at Yonghefang, and I will go to the northwest immediately.

My parents won’t be able to come to Beijing for at least two months, and the house is empty with only a family of servants left. I feel a little uneasy.”

"Are you worried that Diao Nu will do something bad?"

Lu Jiao was stunned and explained repeatedly: "No, no, the Liu family are all honest people.

But when we first moved in, the lady from the Chang family across the street was very resentful.

I am worried that the Liu family is inferior and will suffer if they meet the Chang family lady."

As he said this, he handed the Liu family's indentures to the market owner for review.

Tang Mingyu glanced at it and nodded. In this way, the Liu family had a clear path in front of the market owner.

He thought of Yang Chunniang and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. If we talk about the troublemakers in the market, Yang Chunniang is definitely one of the top ones.

He nodded: "If she goes too far, just ask the Liu family to come and tell me, and I will send someone to reprimand her."

"In that case, thank you very much, sir." Lu Jiao said, pushing the wine jar and snacks forward, "It's just a small token of my appreciation, not a token of respect."

When someone came to the house in Baishi Lane, Tang Mingyu sent people to keep an eye on it and find out the situation of the newly moved Jiao family.

Seeing that they were just two boxes of snacks and two jars of wine, he accepted them directly.

Otherwise, being too polite would make the Jiao family feel uneasy.

Lu Jiao didn't stay in the Tang family for long. She couldn't help but sigh again at her good luck for meeting such a reasonable market owner.

He is approachable, easy to talk to, and seems to be a very upright person.

Otherwise, if it were a house like the one in Datongfang, not only would it delay the stay for several days, but when you were away from home, you would have to worry all the time whether the house would be coveted by others.

When they reached an empty alley, Lu Jiao gave Taxue some wood-related abilities before riding it towards Lu's house.

Although it looked like he was riding on a horse, Lu Jiao was actually floating on Taxue and did not exert any pressure on it at all.

After jogging a few steps in the snow, I found that most of my strength had been restored.

It whinnied a few times excitedly, then spread its hooves and ran forward.

Frightened, Lu Jiao quickly tightened the reins: "Treading snow! Run slower!"

This guy Taxue doesn't even know where he is.

There is no war in Jiang Kingdom, and it is not an 800-mile rush. How dare you run wild on the streets of the capital? Are you trying to kill yourself?

Fortunately, Lu Jiao had a lot of mental energy scattered around, otherwise he might have been noticed.

Even though he was jogging, Lu Jiao arrived at the door of Lu's house in less than half an hour.

She knocked on the door, and it was Xu Bo who came out to greet her again.
