"I have met the third master.△￠"

A middle-aged woman performs blessings and rituals.

Jia Huan smiled brightly and said, "I'm asking for it, I don't know if it's..."

After the woman looked at Fan Jia Huan quietly, she smiled and said with apologies: "When you say the third master, my maid's surname is Zhou, and I am the maid of Baoling Hou's Mansion and the eldest lady."

Jia Huan nodded and smiled, "It turns out it's Madam Zhou. I wonder if Sister Yun is okay? I was so sorry when I returned home a few days ago."

When Madam Zhou heard this, she smiled and said, "Who said it wasn't? Sister Yun went to the mansion twice. It seemed that she heard the brother and sister sang some small songs. After she came back, she talked all day long. Now, she heard that the people under the Third Master came to do things for the farm in our mansion, so she specially asked her servants to follow her to see the Third Master, saying that she had agreed to go to the mansion together, and it would be difficult to get out of the way."

Jia Huan laughed and said, "Sister Yun is intent. In this way, I'm sorry, and I'm sorry to tell the nanny that I will go back to the mansion at noon in New Year's Eve, and after the sacrifice to the ancestors in the afternoon, I will leave the city before the city gate is closed. On the morning of the first day of the New Year, I will go to kowtow to the ancestors and pay homage to the master, the master and the brother Zhen of the Dongfuzhen, and we brothers and sisters can be together. Well, if there is no accident, I can stay in the mansion for about two days. I think I have never missed Sister Yun's truth this time."

Madam Zhou laughed and said, "Yes, Sister Yun has always been going to pay New Year's greetings to her aunt on the first day of the New Year. Since she has brought her words, I have also recorded the words of the third master. Then I will go back now."

Jia Huan raised his eyebrows and said, "So anxious? Let's go back for dinner at the village? Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain when you see Sister Yun."

Madam Zhou smiled softer and said, "No, the third master doesn't know the nature of my sister Yun, so she's so anxious. I have to go back early, otherwise she will definitely not be able to wait for news at home."

Jia Huan laughed at him, and then said to Li Wanji, who had been hanging his head, "Wanji, since the nanny is rushing back, then you can take her to Butler Wang's place, and give her a piece of silver to the nanny to drink tea on the road."

When Li Wanji heard this, he lowered his head and responded respectfully to "yes", and then looked at Jia Huan's hand behind the desk without moving, and Jia Huan's hand gestured there with a thirty gesture.

And the lower Madam Zhou couldn't stand when she heard this, and waved her hands repeatedly, "The Third Master is just talking, but it's just a word, so how can I use it... Alas, I can't use it, I can't use it."

Jia Huan waved his hand to Madam Zhou, and then said to Li Wanji: "Let the kitchen prepare some specialties from our village and bring them to my sister Yun to try them. Have another pack so that Madam can cushion on the road."

After saying that, he smiled at Madam Zhou and said, "Madam, our farm produces some donkey meat. Although it can't be on the big table, it tastes really good. The sisters and brothers in our house like to eat it very much, and even the old lady and the master are willing to taste it. I'm sorry to take it back for Sister Yun to taste it. If you want to eat it, you can send someone to pick it up at any time. Even if I am the younger brother, I give my sister a little bit of filial piety."

"Oh! This is really... When this is spread, it is a good story about a sibling. Third Master, I thank Third Master for my sister Yun!"

After saying that, Madam Zhou smiled and laughed, she knelt down and kowtowed three times to Jia Huan.

Seeing this, Jia Huan twitched his lips and smiled and said, "Then let it go, Mama and Manager Li go on."

When Li Wanji heard this, his body suddenly paused, and then his eyes burst out with two excited glosses. Manager Li... Fortunately, he knew that he could not lose Jia Huan's face in front of outsiders, so he accompanied Madam Zhou out in a regular manner.

...

"Manager Li, the old woman said the wrong thing, which made the third master unhappy?"

After leaving the house, Madam Zhou said to Li Wanji with some anxiety.

Li Wanji smiled and said, "Mummy, don't be too careful, it's not Madam's fault."

Madam Zhou was still uneasy and said, "But I see you..."

Li Wanji whispered: "My grandma doesn't know that my third master is the most kind-hearted and can't stand people like the nanny kneeling and kowtowing. In the farm, he repeatedly asks older people not to kneel down and kowtow to him. For such an old man, the third master has always been very courteous and respectful. So after seeing the nanny kneel down just now, the third master was unbearable. Don't blame him for that nanny..."

Madam Zhou was moved when she heard this and said, "I really came from a noble family, and I am not a good man. What does Manager Li say? When I meet a polite young man like the third master, I can't even blame him for his old woman. After I go back, I will definitely tell those who are unsightly, so that they can open their eyes and know how noble Shuxiang is."

...

After Madam Zhou left, Jia Huan, the "School Master", copied another copy of the characters. Although it was still like a bird climbing, it was finally able to write them all. Unlike at the beginning, there was always a lack of strokes and one stroke.

If you are used to writing simplified Chinese characters, it is really not a light thing to learn traditional Chinese characters.

After writing a pair of words, Wang Gui knocked on the door and asked for a meeting.

"Third Master!"

Wang Gui is now becoming more and more a housekeeper. The head wrapped on his head is not the ragged and smelly head wrapped in the past, but the extremely grand housekeeper hat.

Jia Huan has made so much money in the past few months, so Jia Huan has also set the rules with the flow.

The so-called rules, in addition to some old etiquette rules of the Jia family, are the payment of wages.

Wang Gui, a steward-level figure, has now completely escaped from the "lowest-class people" class and has become a well-known figure.

He also became more particular about his dressing. In his words, he could not embarrass the Third Master...

After looking at Wang Gui's blue and blue robe, looking at his old chrysanthemum face, Jia Huan pulled the corner of his mouth and said, "What's the matter?"

Wang Gui smiled and said, "San Master, the people who invited me to have noodles recently have been lined up until the beginning of next year. They all want to ask me to inquire with San Master if they can sell some cement produced in our farm."

Jia Huan said without comment: "They want to pave the way? You can find our engineering team and just go to Li Wanji to register and queue up. It is even more okay to build a house. We can even contract furniture, and those that have been used are not bad."

Wang Gui smiled even more and more aggrievedly when he heard this, "Third Master, look at their meaning... I really can't afford to pay a thousand taels. Moreover, their village is not as big as Zhuangzi of the Duke Zhenguo Mansion, and the road is not that long."

While washing the brush, Jia Huan said, "Then you can reduce the price at your discretion. The roads built by the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion are about 300 meters, less than 400 meters. I suffer a little loss, even 400 meters. In terms of conversion, one meter is only 2 taels and 5 cents of silver. This price is fair enough, right?"

Wang Gui smiled and his face was sore, and he said speechlessly: Is this fair? What a shame, the raw material of cement is the gray stone mountain, at most it is a waste of manpower. But in this world, how much money is worth?

Another main raw material for paving is dug directly from the Fengshui River. Eight waters surround Shenjing. Fengshui is located in the south of Shenjing. There is a small tributary flowing even better by Jiajiazhuangzi, which is the Gazi River...

Therefore, the raw materials for paving almost cost no cost, except manpower.

However, Wang Gui didn't dare to say this to Jia Huan, but he was just trying to speak but stopped.

Seeing this, Jia Huan was in a bad mood and said in a deep voice: "Lao Wang, are you accepting other people's gifts and coming to me to be a lobbyist?"

Seeing this, Wang Gui was so shocked that he was about to kneel down to apologize, but when he saw Jia Huan's eyes even more fierce, his knees straightened up again, bowed and apologized, "Third Master, I haven't taken the wrong medicine, I'm crazy, so why do I accept their gifts? No, no."

Jia Huan snorted and said, "Then what are you trying to mess with here?"

Wang Gui explained bitterly: "San Master, I'm not for them, I'm for you, you, Mr. Master. Walk down the official road in the south of the city, in addition to the several large villages near the suburbs of the city, there are also many small and medium-sized villages, especially small villages. They can't even take out a thousand taels of silver to pave the way if they kill them.

However, along the way, the road surface of our families on Guan Road is really beautiful. Even if it snows, it will still be bright after cleaning the road. In comparison, theirs will be much ugly.

The masters in these people's houses also want to save face. Compared to this, their faces are not good-looking. But they can't take it out or are reluctant to take out a thousand taels to pave the way, so many people dare not say it openly, but secretly start to speak sarcastic words."

Jia Huan sneered when he heard this and said, "What are they saying?"

Wang Gui hesitated, and saw that Jia Huan's eyes were not good at the end of the future, he gritted his teeth and said, "I heard that someone secretly reported that the cement recipe in the third master's hand was not actually made by ourselves in our farm, but the second master in the mansion made it from the Ministry of Works. Some people also said that this was not made from the Ministry of Works, but from the craftsmen who were sold to our farms. However, those craftsmen used to have official registration, so the cement recipe was still from the court.

Third Master, I asked, many people believed this statement, otherwise... or not..."

"Otherwise, I, a seven-year-old yellow-haired naughty boy, wouldn't I have the ability to make cement, right?"

Jia Huan sneered.

Wang Gui looked embarrassed and said, "Third Master, these are all the bastards. I asked Li Wanji and the others. They all swear to their ancestors, saying that it is definitely not the prescription they brought."

Jia Huan glared at Wang Gui with anger. Wang Gui knew he had made a mistake, so he also asked, "Don't it mean he had doubted this before?"

Looking at the embarrassing feeling on Wang Gui's face, Jia Huan sighed and said, "We are going to make some preparations. Eating alone is indeed the most taboo thing. We must destroy this storm before it gets up."

When Wang Gui heard this, he looked reluctant and said, "San Master, do you really want to hand over the prescription?"

Jia Huan sneered and said, "How is that possible? I have always been the Third Master who cares about other people's things, so how could I let others take things out of my pocket? It's just to find a few more shields. Third Master, my reputation is still not strong enough. The sign of the Third Master of the Jia family cannot be suppressed."
