Traveling through time as a peasant girl to turn things around
Chapter 448: Li Biaotou sets out to Hengchang Prefecture
At the Chai Mansion, Li Biaotou and his men could not sit still after just one day’s rest. They informed everyone to prepare a change of clothes and set off. Chai En and several brothers were waiting in the main hall, all carrying large bags. Seeing this situation, Old Lady Li knew that it was impossible not to let them go out. She instructed them, “Grandchildren, when you go out, pay attention to safety first! If there is anything, listen to En’er, he has the most ideas!” Looking at each other, Mumu, Chai Lu nodded. The children have grown up, and they are no longer under the control of their mother! Chai Zhen: “When you arrive in Donghai, listen to Fengxing’s words. Wherever there is danger, there are enemy countries harassing Donghai, so be careful not to act alone.” “Yes, great grandfather.” Chai Zhen said again: “It’s good to go out for some exercise. Great grandfather used to take you three grandfathers alone to conquer the world, and finally settled down in Taohua Village. Now it’s your turn to go out, and your situation is much better than mine!”
Li Biaotou set out from the back gate. Thirty trucks had already filled their tanks and were ready. They had tarpaulins, water tanks, dry food, and large pots of vegetables, oil, salt, and other supplies.
When they arrived at the gate of the mansion, the four of them were about to get in the car when they heard a voice shouting in the distance, "Grandpa, Ye'er Ye'er wants to go too." Someone came running, holding a luggage bag and shouting. Chai Zhen saw it, yes, another one. Chai Ye: "Grandpa, Ye'er wants to go too!" Chai Zhen: "Go ahead, tell your mother." Chai Ye: "Yes, and grandparents know." Chai Zhen: "Get in the car, and listen to Fengxing and Guoguo when you get there." Chai Ye: "Yes, Ye'er will remember it." Chai Zhen: "Get in the car." Li Biaotou said with a chuckle, "You brothers get in one car, and we can all sit in mine." Chai En: "There's no room in the driver's seat." Li Biaotou: "Sit in the back pocket."
Old Lady Li brought a large quilt and handed it to the children, who spread it out in the cart. Chai En said, "Okay." Chai Ping'an had a large basket brought in, containing a kettle, fruit, large pancakes, and other food. The children all sat in the back of a large cart.
Old Lady Li looked at them and said, "I'm not lonely, there are so many people here!" The brat laughed and said goodbye to the Chai family.
The convoy started moving and soon disappeared from sight. Chai Zhen: "We've all grown up, the world is wide open! Let's go back home!"
Old Lady Li was a woman who couldn't bear to see her grandchildren go away one by one. Chai Ping'an supported them by her side, "Don't worry about it. The children are grown up! They all have their own world." Old Lady Li nodded and whispered, "I know, I just can't bear to see them go away." Chai Ping'an: "It's okay, Fengxing, Guoguo is waiting for them up ahead."
Outside the city, Li Biaotou arrived at the glass factory. Upon meeting Huo Hua, he handed him the prince's badge and said, "Brother Huo, you also want ten carts of glass!" Huo Hua replied, "Okay." Huo Hua had the gates opened and the convoy of ten carts entered. Li Biaotou said to the others, "Zhang Bin, you lead the team. Twenty carts will go haul the coal. We'll meet them outside Pingjin Prefecture." Zhang Bin replied, "Okay, we'll leave first." Li Biaotou replied, "Okay. Let's go."
The windows of the ten cars were quickly installed, with straw stuffed around the edges to prevent damage. There were no gaps, only straw fans between them. The roofs were covered with tarpaulins, and the cars were ready. The Chai family members sat in the driver's room. Li Biaotou said goodbye to Huo Hua and set off!
Huo Hua watched the convoy go by. The glass factory had become prosperous over the years. It had expanded in scale, produced more products, and was very profitable. He had also received too much money, which he could not spend in several lifetimes. Huo Hua's wife had given birth to another daughter, who was now in her teens. He had been living in a two-story courtyard house for many years and had not bought a bigger house. He was very low-key. His son was already too old to get married, but he refused to ask for his son to pass the imperial examination and start a family. Huo Hua shook his head, returned to the factory, closed the gate, and told the guards, "Guard the gate!" The two guards said, "Yes, General Manager!"
Howard returned to his office and noted today's shipment figures for the prince's use. He hadn't received a penny today, as he would settle the accounts at the end of the year. Any special needs were recorded in a separate notebook. He locked it in a drawer. For years, he had kept and managed the account books himself, never delegating responsibility to others. He was diligent and conscientious! ...
Chai En was in Li Biaotou's car. He said, "Uncle Li, you've been away from home all year round. You must be very tired!" Li Wang: "It's not hard. This is better than having no work. People like us would rather be tired than sit around." Chai En: "I think I understand what you mean. If you are busy and have work to do, you will have income and food and clothes. If you have no work, you can't make money, and your family will have a hard time!" Li Wang: "That's it! Being tired is nothing. Our Guoguo is a capable man. He takes care of us brothers and has food to eat and clothes to wear. Our family lives a good life.
Look at our cars, they run so fast, hahaha! Hahaha! I wake up laughing every day with joy! The prince has a fleet of cars, you know!" Chai En: "Yeah, I know, I heard that you compete with them!" Li Biaotou: "Hehe. There are a total of sixty large cars, all working for the Ministry of Revenue. We are also considered half-public servants." Chai En: "Yeah, that's right! When I go back, I will ask the emperor to list you in the Ministry of Revenue. In the future, when you can't work anymore, you will still have public food to eat and money to spend in your retirement." Li Biaotou: "Okay! Thank you in advance, Uncle Li!" Chai En: "No, the emperor has to approve it!" Li Biaotou: "Yeah, I understand!" Chai En took out a kettle and handed it to Li Biaotou. Li Biaotou: "You drink it, I don't drink it, I also have a kettle." Chai En: "Okay."
Chai En saw that the road was well-maintained, smooth and easy to walk on. He could even see carriages passing by. This was the main road of the capital. ...
As for Guoguo, she had a good night's rest. At dawn, she sent Mo Zun outside. Mo Zun drove on.
He left the Demon Lord alone to drive, "Humph, not even one person spoke."
He was kicked out by Ye Heng, who said he had to take care of the children and Guo Guo. Xiao Chen: "Brother-in-law, I want to go out too." Ye Heng: "You kid, don't you have fun here?" Xiao Chen: "Hey, I want to learn how to drive?" "How old are you? In a few years." Xiao Chen: "I'm tall and strong." Ye Heng: "Seven years old?" Xiao Chen: "Yeah, seven years old."
Ye Heng: "No, the car is not allowed to drive. If you want to go out and take a look, that's allowed." Guoguo sent Xiaochen outside. The Demon Lord looked at the villain who suddenly appeared, hehe! Xiaochen: "What are you talking about? I'm the elder!" The Demon Lord rolled his eyes and said, "Look at your height, do you look like an elder?" Xiaochen: "What do you say I look like? Guoguo is my eldest sister, my only sister. What do you say I look like! You can't call Guoguo sister, right? Humph!" The Demon Lord, hehe, "You kid, you don't suffer any loss with your words! If you call me brother, I will ask you to learn to drive, how about it?" Xiaochen: "No how? I will learn it by watching you drive! I'm not stupid!"
The Demon Lord couldn't fool Xiaochen. He focused on driving at a very fast speed and traveled more than 200 miles in half a day. He looked at the sky, stopped the car and said, "Let's take a break and eat something." Xiaochen: "Okay." The two got out of the car and sat under a tree by the roadside. They took out buns and fruits and ate. Xiaochen took out two apples and handed one to the Demon Lord, "Eat it." The Demon Lord: "Okay, you remember to bring food." Xiaochen shook his head. I don't know how this guy established the Dark Night Pavilion, and he is still the Demon Lord! That's his brain! I heard from Sister Guoguo that a woman becomes stupid for three years after pregnancy, but the Demon Lord is not a woman, and he has never been pregnant. This shouldn't be the case! He looked at the Demon Lord again, eating his own food.
After a short rest, Mo Zun and Xiao Chen got in the car and continued on their journey. Mo Zun walked a little longer until it got dark. They arrived at the city and went in to find a hotel to rest. They parked the car in the backyard, agreed with the owner, and rented a room. Then, the two of them went out to the night market. Mo Zun looked around. This was Hengchang Prefecture, very prosperous!
Xiao Chen: "Look at this restaurant, it says the No. 1 restaurant in the world. Xiao Chen remembers that anything that is the best in the world is related to my sister. He said to the Demon Lord, "Bai Tianyu, let's go and ask. Who is the master?" Demon Lord: Okay.
As the two entered the main gate, someone greeted them. "Hello, would you like to eat or stay?" The Demon Lord replied, "Eat." The waiter replied, "Please go upstairs. We have private rooms!" The Demon Lord replied, "Okay." He looked at the facilities, which were identical in design to those in the capital and the No. 1 Hotel under Heaven. The Demon Lord asked, "Shall we get your manager here?" The waiter replied, "Okay."
The steward was a young man who knocked on the door. The Demon Lord said, "Come in!"
The steward came into the room, "Excuse me, are you looking for me?" Demon Lord: "Are you the steward here?" Steward: "Yes, my name is Chai Yihu. I am from Beijing." Demon Lord: "Do you know the No. 1 Hotel in Beijing?" Chai Yihu: "That is our headquarters. The head of the family, Chai Jiaxing, is in charge of the affairs. I am a branch here." The Demon Lord looked at the young man and stretched out his hand and said Harry, it's not simple, it turns out to be his. Demon Lord: "Guoguo, do you know?" Chai Yihu immediately stood respectfully! He said seriously, "That's our head!"
Demon Lord: "I am her second son-in-law, and this is his younger brother Chai Muchen." Chai Yihu knew these names. He quickly said, "Please wait a moment, I will bring the food." Demon Lord: "No hurry, it's nothing serious. I passed by here and saw the words "Number One in the World" and wanted to ask. You go ahead and do your work. Just serve a few simple dishes." The steward: "Okay, I will arrange it myself." He saw the people leave. Demon Lord: "Xiaochen, you guard the gate." Xiaochen: "Okay."
The Demon Lord said, "Mom, mother, we've come to your shop, come out and see me!" He seemed to be talking to himself. Guo Guo inside understood and came out with Ye Heng.
Demon Lord: "This is Hengchang Mansion, this is the best building in the world, is it said to be your shop?"
Guoguo and Yeheng sat down, and the Demon Lord called Xiaochen in to talk to them.
Soon the steward brought the food. When he opened the door, Chai Yihu saw Guoguo and Yeheng. He knew them and was very familiar with them. He immediately knelt down and said, "Master! Chai Yihu greets the master!" Yeheng didn't remember, but Guoguo did know and said, "Are you the one who manages this shop?" Chai Yihu: "Yes, master. We all took the surname Chai, so we all had names. We learned how to manage the business and started this business." Guoguo: "Okay, you can get up." Chai Yihu: "Thank you for your grace, master." Guoguo: "It's also your own idea. Is the shop business good?" Chai Yihu: "Good, very good. Our restaurant has the best food and accommodation in this city." Guoguo: "Okay. Put down the food and you can go and get busy." Chai Yihu: "I'm not busy. I'll be waiting outside. If the master needs anything, just let me know!" Guoguo: "Okay." Chai Yihu had the food served and led the servants out. He stayed outside.
Ye Heng: "I didn't expect you have a shop here." Guo Guo said with a smile: "I have many shops. In the past few years, my second uncle has been in charge, and I don't know how many branches I have opened!"
Ye Heng: "Not to mention you, I don't even know how much property I have. Let's eat."
Guoguo: "Call out all the children." Yeheng: "Okay." Yeheng went out and said to Chai Yihu, "Go and serve a few more dishes and rice. There are still some children who want to eat!" Chai Yihu: "Yes, Your Highness!" He turned around and went downstairs.
Guoguo brought all the children out. Books and paintings were all out. Guoguo: "You don't have to cook tonight, eat outside. Then go shopping."
“Okay!” Hahaha! Haha! The children are happy!
Demon Lord: "Do you want to change to a bigger room?" Guoguo: "Yes, there are too many people! Let's change to another one." Chai Yihu came and opened the presidential suite of the master, the emperor, the largest and best room. Ye Heng and his group went in. The children ran to the sofa and sat down. The three little kids were held by the adults. Chai Yihu ordered people to bring the food and said, "Master, these dishes are the best here. Masters, try them! Give your comments!" Guoguo agreed. "Is there any juice?" Chai Yihu: "Yes." Guoguo: "Squeeze a few glasses of juice for me." Chai Yihu went there happily, and soon the juice came up. Chai Yihu: "There are two kinds of juice, orange juice and peach juice." Guoguo took a sip and said, "Delicious! Not bad!"
Chai Yihu: "Well, the Second in Command said that the quality must be good!"
Guoguo: "Yes, the first thing is good quality."
Ye Heng couldn't stand it when other men talked too much to Guo Guo, so he said, "Eat."
The meal was delicious. Guoguo later said, "There's not enough chili peppers!" Chai Yihu: "There's a shortage of chili peppers!" Guoguo: "How much is there?" Chai Yihu: "Every time supplies are delivered, there's not enough chili peppers for daily use." Guoguo: "Normally, Xiaowangzhuang grows a lot of chili peppers, probably because they use them for barbecue. Let's plant more when we get back!" Chai Yihu: "Okay."
Guoguo: "I'll have someone bring some to you later. The car is parked somewhere else." Chai Yihu: "Okay."
Ye Heng watched as the family finished their meal and said, "Let's go for a walk." The adults carried the children, while the older ones walked on their own. After Chai Yihu saw them off, he cleaned the house and replaced all the quilts and sheets with new ones, preparing it for the masters.
Ye Heng asked Mo Zun where his car was. Mo Zun said, "In a hotel. We came here for fun." Guo Guo said, "Find a dark place. I'll take the sack out." Ye Heng said, "Okay."
The two of them went to a quiet and deserted place. Guoguo took out the sack and said, "These are all peppers." Ye Heng: "I'll go find a carriage." As soon as he left, the Demon Lord came with a carriage. Ye Heng helped load the carriage, and the Demon Lord delivered it to the hotel. Chai Yihu took them to the backyard to unload the carriage. The Demon Lord: "These are all dried peppers. You can grind them into powder and use them." Chai Yihu: "Yes, thank you, master." The Demon Lord: "You can also collect the seeds and grow them yourself."
Chai Yihu: "Okay, I know what to do." Demon Lord: "That is, buy a piece of land and grow crops yourself. You can make money!" Chai Yihu: "Yes, I understand." Demon Lord: "Okay, we're leaving and won't be back." Chai Yihu: "I've prepared a place to stay." Demon Lord: "No. You'll regret it someday!"
Chai Yihu hadn't expected to see his master. He returned to his office and ordered the peppers to be stored, seeds to be collected, and land to be purchased for pepper cultivation. ...
After the group had enough fun, they returned to the space, and only Mo Zun and Xiao Chen went back to the store to rest.
The next day, the Demon Lord set out at dawn. As soon as he left the city, he sped up. Along the way, Xiaochen paid attention to the land on both sides and the crops. The Demon Lord said, "You are so young, why are you worrying so much?"
Xiaochen: "I looked unconsciously, it's nothing!"
Demon Lord: "Everything is good near the capital, but it's mainly a remote place. There are a lot of barren lands. Take your time."
