Pei Yan certainly wouldn't have such a little bit of mind.

During this time, he was busy improving the craftsmanship of Yu's lacquerware shop.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, he immediately asked Yuyuan to meet at the Pei’s tea house not far from the Yu’s lacquerware shop. He gave the booklet he had compiled to Yu Yuan, and poured a cup of tea for Yuyuan himself, saying: "You Look carefully to see if it can be used. If it can be done, you can solve the problem of the lack of apprentices and the leakage of craftsmanship in the future. However, nothing can be generalized. My method is not necessarily safe, but it can Use it first. Later, if something happens, you can slowly improve."

Yu Yuan was flattered, leaned in a hurry, thanked Pei Yan, took his pamphlet, and read it carefully.

When I finished reading, there was only a hot face left.

He has been the young owner of Yu's lacquerware shop for more than 20 years, but he is not as good as Pei Yan, a foreigner who has observed for two months.

Pei Yan broke down all the craftsmanship, and a skilled apprentice led several apprentices. In this way, not only improved efficiency, and effectively ensured quality, but also prevented the risk of apprentices learning the craft from being dug away.

"Thank you Third Master!" Yu Yuan admired Pei Yan and poured a cup of tea.

Pei Yan frowned and said, "Although I am older than you, but if I marry Atang, you will be your brother-in-law. You don't have to be so polite with me."

But the title "brother-in-law", Yu Yuan looked at Pei Yan's indifferent and perfect face, it was really hard to say.

Fortunately, Pei Yan did not force him, but continued to talk about the topic just now: "Of course there are disadvantages to this method. I think the masters you invite are all from the same family. Even if every apprentice is the same proficient, if several apprentices have friendship. Okay, let's go together, and the result is still the same. I think if you really want to start the workshop, the most important thing is to re-establish a reward and punishment system, so that they feel that they have the money to take it and do it. If you don’t get it well, you don’t have money to get it. They feel that they can work at your home with peace of mind, and naturally they don’t want to leave.

It's hard for him to intervene in this matter.

However, Yu Yuan has already fallen in love with the five bodies that Pei Yan admires. He is what Pei Yan said. He doesn't even think about it carefully. Hearing this, he said: "I read less, or you can help us make an idea?"

But you can't always rely on him for the Yu family's affairs!

It is better to teach him how to fish than to teach him how to fish.

Pei Yan saw Yu Yuan's restraint, thought about it, and said, "Why don't you ask Pei Man? Since he took charge of Pei's house, he has re-made some rules for the servants in the house. You can refer to it. "

Yu Yuan thinks this is also good.

It's better than facing Pei Yan.

Facing Pei Yan, he was too embarrassed to ask more if he didn't understand.

Pei Yan said: "Then I'll talk to Pei Man later."

Yu Yuan repeatedly thanked him, and called Dr. Cha to come in, to invite Pei Yan to taste the most famous teahouse assorted pastries.

Pei Yan originally didn't want to eat, thinking that Yu Yuan is his elder brother, and there are many opportunities to deal with in the future. The heirs of Yu Tang's family must come from their family. It is necessary to strengthen the relationship with Yu Yuan, so I feel relieved. Sitting down, waiting for Dr. Tea to serve them snacks, and casually asked about Yu Yuan's business.

In addition to managing the Yu family's lacquerware shop, Yu Yuan also privately participated in Yao San's grocery shop.

He casually mentioned that Yao San recently bought Zhang Yanyin and wanted to try to do a salt business, and he was looking for a stake in him.

Listening to a movement in his heart, Pei Yan thought of the tall shopkeeper Peng Shixi had found.

He said: "Are there many people on our side doing salt to attract business?"

Yu Yuan nodded and said with a smile: "However, everyone buys a salt lure from a few companies. Although this business is profitable, but if there is no way, you can get a real exchange from Jiubian people according to the rules, that is, earn money. A hard money. Yao San dares to do this business because he has a friend who knows a soldier from Datong, and that soldier is from Haining."

Pei Yan was not very familiar with the military attache's side, let alone a general soldier of Datong.

But he was willing to help Yu Yuan and said: "Don't toss about it. I will first ask you what the chief soldier is, and see who has friendship with him, and then you can decide whether you want to buy shares."

If this is the case, their business will not be lost.

This is really an unexpected gain.

Yu Yuan was overjoyed and toasted a cup of Pei banquet with tea instead of wine.

When Pei Yan thought about the treasurer Gao, she asked Yu Yuan to ask Yu Yuan about the Gao family and asked him to pay attention: "Look at what this person is doing in Datong?"

He now suspects that the high treasurer is doing salt attracting business. I just don't know if it is Peng 11's own business or a bureau in the Peng family's business.

Yu Yuan responded.

The two of them talked gossip for a long time and drank two pots of tea before they dispersed.

Since then, Yu Yuan has been praising Pei Yan, saying that Pei Yan respects the Yu family and does not look down on the Yu family because of his two-ranked scholarship.

Yu Tang pursed his lips and smiled.

This guy can always pretend when it's critical. Based on his performance in front of her family, Yu Tang feels that after he gets married, he has to treat Pei Yan well.

The house in Lin'an couldn't be sold, and Li Duan couldn't live in Lin'an. What's more, Li Yi was still waiting for the money to take care of the servants on the road. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Li Duan personally went back to Lin'an City. Only then did he know that Pei Yan and Yu Tang had an appointment.

Standing in his decaying courtyard, Li Duan didn't recover for a long while.

Such a beautiful girl's house, like a flower, shouldn't grow in an ordinary house, in an ordinary courtyard.

He just didn't expect that she could marry into such a strong castle.

Thinking of Gu Xi again, he also married to Pei's house.

It seems that the two girls who are related to him have gone to Pei's house.

Li Duan felt sour.

He sent someone to Pei's house to post a post.

Pei Yan is not at home, and it is said that he went to Suzhou.

As for what to do in Suzhou, the Pei family certainly wouldn't tell him, nor did he inquire about it.

Li Duan stayed in Lin'an for two days.

During this stay, he waited until Peng 11 who came to Lin'an to find him.

Peng Shixi didn't mean anything else, just wanted him to return the five thousand taels of silver that he had previously "lent" to Li Duan.

Li Duan was trembling with anger, but the Peng family was still a big family, he was under the roof of the people, and he couldn't help but bow his head.

"You also know what's going on in our family. Where do we have money to return the five thousand taels of the Peng family?" He said solemnly, emphasizing the word "Peng family", "Or, brother Peng waits for me to pay Let's talk about this ancestral house in your family after it's sold?

The Pei family said hello, can the Li family still sell this house?

Peng Shiyi sneered in his heart and said, "Or, you can make two thousand taels of silver and sell it to me."

He was going to buy this house and give it to Pei Yan, begging Pei Yan to let him go.

Li Duan was furious, but didn't dare to lose his temper, and said, "The price is too low."

Their house was priced at four thousand taels, and he was going to sell it for three thousand five hundred taels.

Of course he wouldn’t mind the difference of the one thousand and five hundred taels of silver in the past, but the days when he ran for his father in the capital made him understand that sometimes a penny of silver can also stump heroes, let alone one thousand and five hundred. Two silvers will allow them to live a wealthy life for several years.

Li Duan didn't want to appear too weak, so he made Peng eleven into his feet, and said in a somewhat threatening manner: "The Pei family has always been willing to do good things, but it is not good. I am going to sell this house to the Pei family. I will be able to repay you more money at that time. ."

Peng Shi did not want to provoke Li Duan, attract the attention of the Pei family, and cause unnecessary trouble. He opened his face coldly and said, "It's okay. Then I'll wait until your family sells the house."

Li Duan made Peng Shixi, who was sent by the little man next to him, standing in the yard without moving.

The loyal servant who followed Li brought him over and couldn't help saying: "Young Master, did you let him go like this? Those five thousand taels of silver, but their filial piety to the master!"

It's just that this filial piety is related to the Peng family asking the Li family to help retrieve the "Songxi Fishing Hidden Picture".

So Peng Xi didn't dare to really turn his face with him, right?

Li Duan looked at Peng Shi's back with cold eyes, and said: "If he pushes me into a hurry, I will go to Pei Yan and tell the Sect Master of the Peng family that he is asking me for money."

He intuitively felt that the Peng family was not so stingy, and he would ask for the money he gave.

After the spread, the Peng family can count on someone to help them.

The loyal servant nodded repeatedly.

Li Duan felt that it was impossible for him not to see Pei Yan, so he squatted quietly at the Tiaoxi Pier for a few days before finally waiting for Pei Yan.

But this time Pei Yan took a one-masted boat and entered Pei Mansion directly from Tiaoxi Pier.

Li Duan handed another post.

Pei Yan met him.

He didn't feel shame at all, so he directly asked for help and asked Pei Yan to buy their house.

Pei Yan intended to compensate the Li family's house, and spent three thousand taels of silver to buy the old house of the Li family.

Li Duan was grateful, and said inadvertently: "Speaking of which, all kinds of misunderstandings are caused by the "Songxi Fishing Hidden Picture" of the Yu family. If it were not for the Peng family's trust, my family would not fight. If it wasn’t for the idea of ​​the painting of the Yu family, it wouldn’t involve the loss of the second son of the Wei family. If it hadn’t been for the loss of the second son of the Wei family, Miss Yu would not be obsessed with it. Our family is dead. Now our family can be regarded as retribution!"

Pei Yan paused with the tea cup in his hand.

I read the words "the second son of the Wei family" several times in my heart.

Li Duan was also afraid that Pei Yan would not understand, and explained: "Ms. Yu originally had a marriage contract with the second son of the Wei family, but she had seen each other. But before being officially hired, the second son of the Wei family passed away. Because of this, Mrs. Yu and Mrs. Wei also became sisters. Yu Yuan married Mrs. Wei’s niece, and the two continued to be in-laws."

Pei Yan had heard of this before, but didn't think much about it.

But listening to what Li Duan said, it felt different.

It seemed that Yu Tang was still thinking about the second son of the Wei family.

Pei Yan clearly knew that Li Duan's words had no good intentions. He heard it as if he had been stabbed in the chest, bleeding and not speaking, and the pain made him a little speechless.

He smiled and brought the tea to the guests. When he returned to the study, he was so angry that he walked back and forth a few times and still couldn't calm his mood. He simply smashed a few tea cups to suppress the anger in his heart.
