On the wedding day, my wife was abnormal

At dinner time, Zhang Li, Yue Wu, Qing Wen and the other two girls came back together. Together with Huanbi and Lin Zhen, the five of them sat in the study and had a pretty good dinner.

Huanbi still had the habit of standing behind Lin Zhen to pick up food for him and wipe his mouth. She would not sit down until Lin Zhen had almost finished eating.

As a result, she always ate cold rice, but the little girl enjoyed it and never complained.

During dinner, Lin Zhen told Qingwen about the rickshaw incident.

This little girl can't sit still now. She goes to the carriage and horse business every day to enjoy the compliments of the drivers. In addition, the carriage and horse business has never made any mistakes in her management, so Lin Zhen is happy to hand over the rickshaw to her for management.

Now hearing that the carriage business is going to expand again, Qingwen is extremely happy, her eyes are full of stars.

"Husband, are you saying this kind of vehicle is pulled by human power? How should we charge for it then?"

"The starting price is one cent, which can be considered as creating some jobs for the many unemployed people in the capital."

"How do I collect the share of money?"

"Forty cents a day."

"Good! Hehehe, my business has grown again!" Qingwen couldn't help but peck Lin Zhen on the cheek.

Lin Zhen scratched her nose lovingly. "Don't be careless. The more people there are, the harder it is to manage the industry. This time, we'll still have to follow the same standards as before. You must have a clean identity and a guarantor. I'll also transfer 100 Tiger Guards from the casino to the carriage and horse shop to protect your safety."

"Okay, okay! It doesn't matter how many people you send, I can handle them all!"

"Look at how conceited you are." Lin Zhen's doting on Qingwen was absolutely from the heart.

Seeing this, Zhang Li was not jealous at all. She slowly ate the last grain of rice, then put down her chopsticks and looked at Lin Zhen.

She doesn't care about the carriage and horse business, she only cares about her own property.

Now the casino is the cash cow of the Lin family, and since the emergence of chips, the monthly turnover has been more than 300,000 taels.

The venue couldn't even be described as crowded, it was almost packed.

Zhang Li has to go through the back door to and from get off work every day and cannot enter through the main door.

The reason why it is so popular is due to two imperial edicts from the royal family. One is posted on the belly of the Maitreya Buddha at the door, which represents the court's recognition of this casino.

Zhang Li even deliberately spread the word that the Hero Casino was a place where the emperor had a stake.

The gamblers were instantly in an uproar and poured into the Hero Casino from other places.

For a time, the words "safe" and "fair" became synonymous with the Hero Casino, especially after the Gambling King Competition. The person who was crowned as the Gambling King would have a special statue erected in the casino lobby for people to worship.

"My dear husband, I've already bought the entire street you requested. The shops connected to the casino are also being renovated and expanded, but what about the rest? We can't just leave it empty."

Lin Zhen also put down his chopsticks and wanted to wipe his mouth with the tablecloth, but Huanbi took the lead and wiped it clean with a handkerchief.

"Well, forget about the rest. I have my own uses. Based on your estimation, how much more does the casino need to expand to accommodate the current customers?"

"We need at least three more buildings the size of casinos."

"Then let's do it. We have plenty of money now anyway."

Lin Zhen originally wanted to turn Xuanwu Street into an integrated entertainment city. Not only would he open the largest and most luxurious casino, but he would also open bathhouses, brothels, theaters, arenas, auctions, and so on.

But these are just plans, and there are not so many craftsmen who can start working at the same time.

He was not Qin Shihuang and could not requisition hundreds of thousands of laborers, but the most urgent task at the moment was to build a school.

The literacy rate of the people in Daqian is extremely low, and the level of education is even lower. In order to achieve long-term development, countless talented people must emerge.

Otherwise, even if Daqian prospers while he is alive, it will likely fall into the cycle of history after his death.

Lin Zhen would never allow the dynasty he had painstakingly built to be destroyed by the lack of ambition of future generations.

"Li'er, what are Gu Yunting and Liu Hanyang doing at their house now?"

"Hurry up! If you don't tell me, who would dare to move?"

"I remember their two families weren't far from each other, right?"

"Well, the nearest place is only across an alley."

"Very good. I will ask His Majesty for permission to transform these two mansions into academies. I will need your attention to recruiting craftsmen."

"My dear husband! I'm completely busy with the casino business. Can't you find someone else?"

After saying that, Zhang Li glanced at Yue Wu, who had been silent, with her beautiful big eyes.

That’s right. Putting aside Huanbi who manages the household, Yuewu has the easiest job now, being only in charge of a small restaurant.

Feeling Lin Zhen's naked gaze, Yue Wu lowered her head.

"Husband, you..."

"Wu'er, your husband needs help now."

"I will do my best for my husband."

Qingwen curled her lips and rolled her eyes: "Yo yo yo ~ Do your best for your husband ~"

Lin Zhen slapped her on the butt in annoyance.

"Oh!"

"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll pinch you!" Lin Zhen pretended to be fierce, but Qingwen was not afraid at all.

Even the delicate buttocks held in Lin Zhen's palm twisted and turned: "Pinch, pinch! What will you do if you pinch the baby off? Lulululu!"

"No nonsense!"

How can you say such nonsense?

If the child falls, the sky will fall!

Lin Zhenxian was so angry that he almost died.

"Wu'er, your husband needs your help in recruiting craftsmen. It just so happens that the people your industry serves are also the lower classes, so you'll be able to get a more comprehensive understanding."

"Yes, I wonder how many people my husband will recruit?"

“There’s no limit on the number of people, as long as someone can do it.”

"Yes, I understand."

"Also, my husband has to go to Wuqing and may not be back for a few days. You must always pay attention to your safety at home."

For some reason, he was still a little worried after learning about the school Gu Nanshan belonged to.

Xuanhe Sect was able to produce a disciple like Gu Nanshan, so would they come to deal with me?

It's hard to say.

Lin Zhen never imagines how good a person is. He always has to be on guard against others. The various people around him are all selected after his long-term scrutiny.

Like Hou Chun, Fatty, Dehao, and Ergou.

But he didn't expect that Ergou was actually Gu Nanshan's son, so he was careless.

From this we can see that necessary security is needed. From now on, no matter which lady goes out, she must have sufficient guards.

In addition to Gu Nanshan, there are also people from Tiandao.

This group of people are idle people in society. They do everything except doing good things. There is no guarantee that they will not attack Lin Zhen's wives and concubines.

"Monkey! Go call Lao Cao over."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Hou Chun took the order and left, and soon Cao Xiong came running over.

His injuries had almost healed, and in the blink of an eye he was back to being a lively and energetic man.

He ran in and clasped his fists to Lin Zhen: "Prince! Madams!"

The girls all smiled and nodded at him.

They all knew what had happened and admired this loyal guard from the bottom of their hearts.

"Lao Cao, go back to the Tiger Camp immediately and mobilize another 300 brothers to come in."

"Huh?" Cao Xiong opened his mouth in shock. "What's going on, Prince? Are you planning a rebellion?"

"Get out of the way. Transfer these three hundred people here. One hundred of them will guard Yue Wu, one hundred will guard Zhang Li, and one hundred will guard Qing Wen. After much deliberation, I think we should leave the five hundred people from the casino alone. After all, our casino is about to expand, and there are still many places that need protection."

Zhang Li smiled and said, "That's exactly the point."

"Yes, I'll do it right away!" Cao Xiong clasped his fists, saluted, turned and left.

The meal was almost over, and Lin Zhen looked at Zhang Li with a smile.

Unexpectedly, the latter saw through his little thoughts at a glance.

"If you want to sleep with me, my husband, please choose someone else. I am not feeling well today."

"Is it such a coincidence? Well then, Wu'er, let's go."

"what......"

Lin Zhen stood up confidently and walked out holding Yue Wu's hand, but Xiao Qingwen immediately blocked their way and said with a pout.

"No! I want to be with my husband too!"

"Didn't you already join in the fun yesterday? Yue Wu is not Huan Bi, so you don't need to come to class."

"That won't do! From now on, I have to be present when anyone sleeps with my husband!"

"this......"

Although Yue Wu didn't say anything, her face was already red and she wanted to bury her head in her chest.
