A scholar becomes a landlord

"I don't understand tea, and I don't understand poetry, so I can't chat with you." Yi Feng was in a low mood, obviously, what happened just now had hit him hard.

Originally, he felt a little inferior to Wei Le, because he always felt that he was not worthy of such a beautiful Xiao Le.Xiao Le is very knowledgeable, and he can still make a friend who has never met with the emperor. He even has a high-ranking official like Mr. Liu as a gentleman. There are too many, and I have been ignoring this question before, but Wei Fan pointed it out today, so he can't help asking himself anymore.

"I don't understand either, it's not just right."

Wei Le said with a smile that he really didn't understand in his previous life.This life has also relied on the memory of the original owner, so he and Yi Feng are a perfect match.

"But~"

"No, but Brother Yi, you think I understand tea, maybe I am nothing in the eyes of tea. Is the tea I understand the true meaning of tea? Terror may not be so, so you don't need to be afraid that I will dislike you, because you are really afraid of being I’m the one who hates it! I don’t know martial arts, and I can’t accompany you to practice guns and knives, let alone practice battlefields with you. Compared with Brother Xiang and Brother Cheng, I can’t even help you. Don't you despise me?"

Standing up straight and walking in front of Yi Feng, Wei Le looked at him with serious eyes.

"No, it's not. I don't dislike Xiao Le. Xiao Le is great. I'm just a person who is said to be against my parents and relatives. They don't even dare to talk to me because they are afraid of me. Look at the Wei family except you , Wei Fan and Jin Butler, the others still dare not approach me to some extent, how can they compare with you who are admired by others!"

Yi Feng was a little at a loss, he didn't know that Xiao Le thought so in his heart, he didn't dislike Xiao Le, he just thought he was not good enough for him.

"Hehe, so let's not dislike each other, okay? Don't you want to be with me forever? If I think about it like this again, I will be angry. If I really dislike you, I won't be with you, let alone agree to Brother Yi You are together."

Wei Le held Yi Feng's hands. These calloused hands were ugly compared to his hands, but they gave Wei Le a sense of security.

"Okay." Yi Feng held Wei Le's hand backhand, and nodded heavily.

Although there are still some thoughts in his heart that he is not worthy of Xiao Le, but he will make himself treat Xiao Le better and make him feel that being with him is worthwhile.

Xiao Le likes money, so he earns more money.The thousands of taels of silver he earned this summer were all exchanged into gold and the silver was transported back to Xiao Le for safekeeping. Seeing him happily provoke the gold, Yi Feng's heart was as sweet as drinking honey water.

Although Wei Le only wants money and not bank notes, he is not used to it, but he also feels that although bank notes are easy to carry, they are too unsafe just like Xiao Le's.

For this reason, Xiang Tian and his two ran to several banks to exchange the gold, and used a pile of goods as a cover so that no one would notice.

But this hobby is acceptable, he doesn't do murder and arson, he just doesn't trust the bank.It's okay to exchange the silver for bank notes if necessary, but for some merchants, it is estimated that they prefer customers who buy with silver.

Although bank notes are convenient, there is no real money that makes people feel comfortable!

Wei Le is also because he has read countless novels that say that banknotes depreciate and end up worthless, causing many people to go bankrupt, so he didn't take precautions first.He didn't want bank notes, and even if he received bank notes, he would exchange most of them for cash.Only in this way, when the banknotes are worthless, he still has silver in his hand.

In ancient times, whether it was a private bank note or a bank note issued by the government, Wei Le felt that it was a scam, so he never trusted it.

Regarding Wei Le's hobby, even the emperor dared not say that the official tickets issued by the Daqing Dynasty were all right. After all, other people didn't know about these subjects. Didn't the emperor not know?

Although most of the world is still dominated by copper coins, silver and gold are also hard currencies, which can be exchanged for food even in disaster years.If it is exchanged for bank notes, the other party will not even look at them. The country can issue as many of these things as they want, and they can even turn them into waste paper overnight. Therefore, the more the station is in chaos or the year of disaster, the bank notes will lose their effectiveness. .

Under Wei Le's leadership, other people also have the habit of depositing silver or gold.Including Mr. Liu in the capital, his family also has more silver deposits and less bank notes.Of course, he mostly exchanged the silver for handy items such as calligraphy, painting and ancient books. These things will not depreciate no matter which dynasty or generation they are in, and they are also light and easy to carry.

The only bad thing is that it is easy to damage, but there is no way to do it. How can there be a double-perfect law in this world!It's pretty good to be able to take care of one end. The master sent someone to transport the ancient calligraphy and painting books he collected to Wei's house in batches, and asked Wei Le to find a place to hide them.

Wei Le was a little confused, but he still asked Yi Feng to find a way to create a secret room, piled charcoal in it to remove moisture, sprinkled quicklime in it, and put camphor wood cabinets and boxes in it, and then put these ancient calligraphy and painting books into the room. Go in, and even put some silver in there too.

The code is very secret, the entrance is next to a cluster of flowers, covered with mud and blue bricks.As long as you don't dig it out, you will never think that there is a secret room there.

In fact, Wei Le's original idea was to dig the Wei family and several other families through each other, and dig more tunnels. If there is a military disaster, everyone can hide in the cellar, and they can also conduct tunnel warfare. If they dare to come in, they will be killed. them.

It's just that this man's project is a bit huge, and Yi Feng is still figuring out how to prevent the tunnel from affecting the house above during the excavation process, and also prevent it from collapsing.

After he has done his research, he can start.

Because Wei Le told him about tunnel warfare, Yi Feng felt that this was a very good idea. It could not only escape for his life, but also kill the enemy. It was better to be prepared with both hands.

Moreover, food and materials can also be stored in the tunnel. As long as the moisture-proof and waterproof treatment is done, the use value of this tunnel is very high.But when Yi Feng heard from Wei Le that the entrance could be built under the stove, his expression was very strange.

"Then how do you light the fire?"

If this stove does not burn fire, it will easily arouse suspicion.

"You can put a slate, so that burning fire on it will not affect the tunnel. When the enemy comes, you can pick up the pot, remove the slate, and restore the pot and slate at the same time, who would have thought Is this stove also the entrance of the tunnel?"

Not only the stove mouth, but also other unexpected places, Wei Le brought them up.

The main reason is that the tunnel battle back then had too much influence on Wei Le, and those various entrances and exits made Wei Le feel that only you can't think of it, and there is nothing they can't do.

After reading it, Wei Le had all three views revisited. He felt that he was too naive before. Thinking about how scary it would be if a head popped out of the stove suddenly when he was about to cook.But the guerrillas and common people at that time really did this, and Wei Le admired it very much.So when he came to ancient times, he learned from the practices of his predecessors, and even if he couldn't carry it forward, he still had to be surprised.

"Okay, I know how to do it."

Yi Feng wiped off his sweat and agreed, and began to study the method of opening the entrance at this time.

Because he was worried that he would not succeed once, Yi Feng was still experimenting in other places. After he succeeded, he would try it with the villa first, and after he succeeded, he would do it at the Wei family, Yi family, He Xiang, and Cheng's family.

So Yi Feng took over, and Wei Le felt a lot more relaxed.After the tunnel was built, he finally no longer worried that he would die at any time.The ancestors told us with history that even devils have to change in front of tunnel warfare.

Tunnel war Hey tunnel war...

Wei Le was walking by the lotus pond while humming.After the morning class, he basically has nothing to do in the afternoon.After his training, Zihao has been able to take over many of his tasks, such as correcting homework, teaching children to read and so on.And what surprised Wei Le was that Zihao's mental arithmetic ability is not bad. Wei Le handed over the modern mental arithmetic methods to him, and Zihao began to give mental arithmetic lessons to the children on his behalf. It is even more generous.

He only needs to concentrate on leading the four disciples and correcting their homework.

And he doesn't need his help with other things at home, even Wei Fan has to help make various pills, only he is too busy to panic and go down the mountain to take a walk in the lotus pond.

"Hello, are you Mr. Wei?"

Wei Le was squatting by the pool watching the fish hiding under the lotus leaves and playing in the water when he heard someone approaching and asked him if he was Mr. Wei.

"How is it, so what if it's not?"

Wei Le tapped his hand with a fan, but he didn't even stand up.

There were three people on the other side, one was dressed as a master, and the other was dressed as a guard. He was not at all curious about the identities of the three of them. The left and right were just the young master and the guards who came out to play, so there was nothing strange about it.Instead, they wanted to find him, which made him a little curious. Why did the other party find him?His reputation is only spread in the county, and it is because of his good handwriting, but it is not so good that people travel thousands of miles to ask for calligraphy!

These few people are obviously dressed in the capital city, and their accents are also from Beijing movies, which made it easy for Wei Le to recognize that they are not locals.

"Of course it's better. Why don't you just ask me to show you how to find Mr. Wei?" The young man dressed as the host cupped his hands at Wei Le, with a hint of affirmation and even a hint of respect in his tone.

"Mr. Wei is not at home these few days, if you have something to do, come back in a few days!"

Wei Le opened his eyes and said nonsense, the other party was left speechless by him.He is obviously sure that the other party is the person he is looking for, but he is unwilling to admit it. Is there anything more deceitful than this?

"Mr. Wei, please don't tease the younger generation, please?" I felt helpless, thinking of losing to him.

"younger generation?"

Wei Le double-checked the other party. He looks older than him, so we are grown-ups?How could it be so funny, the Wei family doesn't have such a person!Moreover, the oldest nephews of the Wei family are only in their teens, but they are not as old as the person in front of them, so they are probably in their third year!

"Yes, Mr. Wei and my father are of the same generation, so I am naturally a junior." After speaking, he showed a charming smile to Wei Le.In the capital, he has captivated many girls with his appearance, making them crazy for him.

It's a pity that this trick didn't work in front of Wei Le. He listened to the young man's words and his face looked like shit.

I'll go, it turned out to be him!

With a shake of his head, Wei Le stood up with his legs propped up.

"Hey, can you pretend you didn't see me?"

Wei Le said without hope.

"Mr. Wei, please stop making trouble."

The young man smiled wryly, this Mr. Wei is really just like what his father said, he is a person who does not act according to common sense.

"Tsk tsk, I really don't want to see you." Wei Le opened his fan to cover his face, can he run into the capital and scold the old man now?But thinking that he still loves the current head, Wei Le dismissed the idea.

"Mr. was joking. My father often said that Mr. was eclectic and forthright, so that the younger generation should respect him." And he respected him as his own master.

But the young man looked at Wei Le, who was almost ten years younger than him, and couldn't completely regard him as an elder.

"Ha, no matter how many high hats you put on me, I don't want to see you. Tell me! What's the matter with me?"

Wei Le closed the fan, put it on the belt on his back, and squatted down to watch the fish again.

Looking at Wei Le who had already guessed his identity but still treated him like an ordinary person, a smile flashed in the young man's eyes, and he stopped the guard behind him from stepping forward to scold him.

Sure enough, the husband is exactly as his father said, he will not treat them as cautiously as others, and if he wants to win his favor, he can't put on airs, otherwise he will definitely ignore you, and will ignore you even more.

"My father asked me to study with my husband for a year."

There was also helplessness in the young man's eyes. He had done well in the capital, but was suddenly thrown out by his father, saying that he had found a husband for him, told him to study hard, and return to the capital after a year.

"Can I say no?"

Wei Le's face was not very happy, no one would be happy to accept a big trouble suddenly.

"This is a letter from my father, saying that my husband will agree after reading it."

The young man took out a letter and handed it in front of him with both hands. Wei Le looked at the letter and considered whether to let it fall into the pond.Anyway, it was careless, so it doesn't count if he didn't read it.

"Sir, my father wrote a total of ten letters." You destroyed one and there are still nine, so you should admit it!

Let me go, the emperor has already guessed his reaction, can we still have fun together?

With a stinky face, Wei Le took the letter and opened it. After reading the letter at a glance, Wei Le's face became even more stinky.

"You can stay, but you have to pay living expenses, repairs, rent and other miscellaneous expenses, 100 taels a month. More than 200 taels a year. Thank you for your patronage."

Wei Le stretched out his hand towards him.

The young man twitched his eyes when he heard this, and he really wanted money just as his father said, so he asked the guard to take out a thousand-person banknote and two 100-liang banknotes.

"Sir, may I stay here?"

The young man watched Wei Le pretending to check the authenticity of the bank note, and the corners of his eyes twitched even more.

"Okay, let's go!"

Wei Le stood up and led them up the mountain.

The young man and the two guards looked at each other with helplessness in their eyes, but more of a sigh of relief.Father said that if he couldn't let Mr. Wei keep him, he would throw him to Xihai Yanzi for ten years after he returned, and he couldn't go to Beijing during these ten years.This kind of punishment frightens the young man, he is not afraid of going to Xihai Yanzi, but if he cannot enter Beijing for ten years, the day lily will be cold, okay?

Although his father likes him the most now, and he is training him to be an heir, but many things can happen in ten years, maybe he will be replaced by the following brothers in the ten years after he leaves, and he can still become his father's favorite and most looking forward to son?

It is definitely better to stay with Mr. Wei than to go to Xihai Yanzi. First of all, with Mr. Wei around, his father will not forget himself.And if he thinks right, his father will receive a letter full of sarcasm in a few days. The letter will not only hurt his father, but also ask for benefits from him. It is estimated that his father will never forget his exist.

Besides, if he is full of Mr. Wei's favor, his father will only value him more, and it will also be of great help to him in inheriting the great cause.

Along the way up the mountain, the young man looked at the magnificent villa and admired Mr. Wei even more in his heart. No wonder his father said he wanted to live in such a summer resort after he knew about it.Although their family also has a summer resort, this kind of natural decoration is more natural than man-made, which is incomparable to their summer resort.

Although the place of refuge in their house looks very beautiful and exquisite, it lacks naturalness and fun, and besides, I am tired of seeing it after so many years.

So as soon as he entered the area of ​​Xiashanzhuang, the young man began to admire it everywhere.Because he was not at home, the young man's words and deeds were much more casual. Of course, it can be seen that he has a good family education and is not the son of an ordinary family.

Wei Le took these few people up the mountain, and soon Yi Feng received the news, and brought Xiang and Cheng out to greet them.

"See..."

Before he finished speaking, Wei Le slapped his face with a fan.

"To shut up."

Wei Le, who was in a bad mood, glared at him, Yi Feng blinked innocently, and the body that was about to kneel down stiffly froze under Wei Le's sight.

"Haha, long time no see General Yi."

The young man greeted Yi Feng with a smile, but Wei Le stared at him at this moment, and didn't dare to respond, he just bowed his hands to the young man as a salute.

Perhaps because of Wei Le's comparison, the two guards did not express any anger at Yi Feng's disrespectful behavior, because they found that even their master seemed indifferent, so naturally they couldn't jump out to be annoying.If the mission of the master is ruined, it will be a trivial matter for them to be driven back to the capital, but it will be a big matter for the master to be thrown to the West Coast!

"Hey, what's your name?"

Wei Le suddenly turned around and brought the man to the door, only to realize that he still didn't know the other party's name.

The young man who had been beaten was defeated again, and he announced his name.

"Ruiqi."

"Tsk, it's hard to remember, I'll call you mistress from now on."

Wei Le deliberately said that the young man named Ruiqi almost fell to the ground.

Where is Ruiqi hard to remember?Mr. Wei must have done it on purpose.

Wei Le did it on purpose, he only looked at Ruiqi with a gentle and kind expression, and the opponent was defeated.

"Sir, whatever you want."

admit defeat.

Let's just be the junior, but fortunately he is indeed ranked third.

Ruiqi, who didn't know that Xiaosan had another meaning, just accepted this title that sounded nothing strange, but in fact it was very strange.

Wei Le knew that he was venting his anger, but so what?How about sending the baby here without saying a word, how about calling him "little three"?Anyway, in this world, he is the only one who knows another meaning of mistress, so it's fine if he doesn't say no.

"Go in, what are you doing standing outside?"

Wei Le glared at them one by one, so he shrank his neck, for fear that Wei Le would take them under his knife.

The new Ruiqi, who is also the junior, gave everyone a strange look. Although Mr. Wei is not short, there is a big gap between him and strong. Why are these people who seem to be much stronger than Mr. Wei so scared? for him?

Ruiqi let go of the doubts in his heart, and he will ask someone when he has a chance.

Walking into this villa, I found that the inside is even more beautiful than the outside, and all kinds of flowers are in full bloom, which makes people reluctant to leave.

"Butler Jin, take the backyard out for this kid to live in. This is a silver note of 200 taels. Go and exchange it for silver. I'll be annoyed when I see the silver note."

Wei Le threw the banknote to Butler Jin, then glared at Rui Qi and left.

Touching his nose, Ruiqi said he was so innocent!

"This third son, please come with the younger one."

Butler Jin didn't know this little third son, but he knew that the young master respected the master and his wife very much, and he actually asked him to clean up the backyard specially reserved for the master and his wife. The identity of the other party was not simple, so he was very polite.

"Thank you, butler." There are not many people who can thank Ruiqi, but now he lives in someone else's house, and he is not a welcome guest, even if he pays the rent, he can't calm down Mr. Wei, so Ruiqi is very smart. Placed in the position of a junior, there is no need to lower your posture, and you don't need to curry favor with the other party, so maybe it's better for both parties.

"You're welcome, did the third son and the guards only bring a few clothes?" Seeing that they only had two or three bags on their backs, it was clear that this group of people traveled lightly, and they probably only brought money and clothes.

"Yes, so I have to trouble Butler Jin for other things." Rui Qi looked at himself and the guards, and found it convenient when on the road, but it was not so convenient when he stayed, as if he lacked everything.

"Okay, little one understands. Don't worry, my son, I have everything at home, and they are brand new. It's just that the ones I used may not be as good as the ones you used before, please forgive me." Jin Guan cleaned up the east wing rooms in the backyard, which happened to be three The houses next to each other are just right for three people to live in.The main room in the backyard is the master and wife's bedroom, and the young master didn't say that he would let it out, but let him live in the backyard, so Butler Jin arranged the east wing.

"Thank you, butler, for your trouble."

Ruiqi also knew that he couldn't live in the main house, because this is where the master's family lived, especially Mrs. Liu and his wife, so what would it matter if he lived?Even if Mrs. Liu is old enough to be his mother, it is not very convenient.

The self-knowledgeable Ruiqi accepted the arrangement of the East Wing Room and suppressed the dissatisfaction of the guards.

"Remember, we are guests here, put away all the previous attitudes, and Mr. Wei will not be polite to me because of my identity here. Remember, he is my elder, you must respect him "Ruiqi is a smart man, his attitude is very correct, he is a student now, a student who needs to learn from Mr. Wei, what right does he have to be special to him.

You must know that Mr. Wei dared to be sarcastic to his father. The two laughed at each other in the letter. It seemed that there was no identity between Mr. Wei and his father.The two of them deliberately maintained this kind of relationship, so Mr. Wei was very dissatisfied with his appearance, because it was his father's private decision, and Mr. Wei was not asked.
