Chapter 197: Sweat dripping

Ye Chunqiu smiled at the corner of his mouth, probably knowing that this was a prodigal playboy. Most of his parents passed away and inherited the family business. Although he had a huge family business, he only knew how to mess around.

Ye Chunqiu explained his requirements to him, such as ten years of rental, annual rent payment, etc., and then wrote down a contract in person to see the person. He just looked at him impatiently: "Okay, hurry up and find a guarantor and make a contract immediately. Can the rent for this year be brought? Hurry up, hurry up, I have something to do."

Ye Chunqiu invited a clerk from the county to protect him. The clerk was very attentive to Ye Chunqiu. After the delivery with the young man, the clerk said with a smile: "What is Ye Jieyuan planning to rent this house for?"

Of course, Ye Chunqiu couldn't say that I wanted to do business. He was a scholar and could only be the person behind the scenes. He said, "I have an uncle who wants to do business in Hangzhou, so I asked me to rent a place for him."

The clerk frowned: "How to do business in such a place? It is sparsely populated and not a downtown area, let alone... it has no background, so it is okay to live in a wealthy family, do business... haha..." He looked at Ye Chunqiu with sympathy. Ye Jieyuan was fooled, so how could he do business like this?

Ye Chunqiu just pursed his lips and looked distracted.

The clerk was not good at talking too much, and said, "But in terms of it, this house is a good house. The owner here was also a big family. The Li family in Hangzhou was doing silk business, so it was not an exaggeration to say that it was one of the best. However, his son Li Chu was not good at it. He was just the one who had just passed away. After Li's father passed away, he hanged with a group of friends. In a few years, the huge family business was ruined. Thousands of acres of mulberry forests in the family were sold clean, and some of the officials below fled. He now only has this house. I don't know when the house was rented to Ye Jieyuan this time. When will the money be spent? Such a person... it's the same old saying, starting a business is difficult, and it's easy to make a fortune."

Ye Chunqiu didn't want to say anything right and wrong behind his back, but the clerk was inspired. His words still made some sense, so he said, "It's true that I thank you. Why not find a hotel nearby? How about Chunqiu invite Mr. Yang to have a glass of water and wine?"

This clerk is not polite. Logically speaking, there will usually be a drink and some gifts for people as a guarantee, but this time it is for Ye Jieyuan to protect him. The clerk feels he is very arrogant and thinks that Ye Jieyuan is probably just giving away some wedding money. Unexpectedly, he is so easy-going, so he said excitedly: "There is a restaurant in the distance, and I will take Ye Jieyuan to go."

When I arrived at the restaurant, before I even went in, I heard a voice calling my friend: "Come on, Li Hu, Zhao Si, I'm rich again, ha... I'm going to have two pounds of cooked beef, and a few side dishes to serve, and a half jar of good wine."

Ye Chunqiu and the clerk looked at each other. Isn’t the person talking to Li Chu?

This guy...is a luxury.

The court had strict regulations on killing cattle, so ordinary cows could not be slaughtered at will except for old age and illness. This resulted in very little beef on the market and the price was very high. Beef was considered a luxury in this era and most people would not eat it easily, but this kid was very generous.

Ye Chunqiu and the clerk went in and asked for a elegant room, so he asked someone to serve the food. Ye Chunqiu blinked at the clerk: "It's better to serve a pound of cooked beef."

The clerk couldn't help laughing and shook his head quickly: "No, I am not meant to be rude and can eat any meat, but it's a waste of money."

After drinking a few glasses of wine, I realized that the clerk was named Yang Jian. He was working in Renhe County and working in the house. Ye Chunqiu told him casually about Hangzhou. After using the meal, Yang Jian had to go back to the yamen to work on duty in the afternoon, so he wanted to get up and say goodbye. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Some words were not appropriate, but if I ordered my uncle to do business, it would be better to find another place. This place is too remote, let alone the house is so big, what's the use? Duke Jie Yuan may not understand the economics. It is very beneficial to use it to cultivate one's own self-cultivation. If Ye Jie Yuan feels it is difficult to find, villains can do it for him. As long as he is willing to spend some effort, he can always find a good place."

Ye Chunqiu stuffed a few taels of silver to him and said, "Mr. Yang is worried. My uncle's business is really here. Oh, thank you for your hard work. This is the joyful money. I'll go downstairs to hire a car for you."

At this time, Yang Shuli admired Ye Chunqiu a little. People like Yang Shuli were just children in their early years, but they could not get a student one after another. In addition, their family was not well-off, so they took the position of a clerk in the county. In the eyes of everyone, it was a low-key career. Ordinary people might have to flatter him, but any scholar who had fame and fortune always looked down upon people like him. As Jie Yuan, Ye Chunqiu had a kind attitude and did not look arrogant at all.

Yang Shuli had a good impression of Ye Chunqiu, but when it comes to this, he couldn't say much. After accompanying Ye Chunqiu downstairs to meet and pass the account, he said: "I know Ye Jieyuan is extraordinary and I am afraid he can't help anything in the future. However, in the future, Ye Jieyuan will send someone to the yamen to inform him. Hangzhou is divided into two by Qiantang and Renhe counties. If there is anything wrong with Qiantang County, it may not help. Renhe can help."

Ye Chunqiu was just grateful for his help as a security guard, and he didn't think about the use of the future. However, seeing his flattery, he wanted to laugh in his heart and said, "A word is certain."

June is the Little Heat season, and the Dock Day has begun. Even in this Jiangnan water town, the weather is so hot.

Ye Chunqiu had to get up earlier. He could barely practice swords before dawn. When the sun came out, the air was like an oven. Before he started moving, it was already too hot.

Ye Jing would go to the street to buy some ice every morning, then put it in a copper basin and put it in the hall. The ice was filled with a hint of cool air, which made the small hall more cool. This led to everyone in their own rooms. They were originally doing their own affairs, but now they had to get together. Ye Jing always held books in the hall, and Ye Chunqiu pretended to be restless, but in fact, he used his light brain to search for vast information every day.

Wang Xizhi was so timid that he didn't dare to come. He covered his room with sweat and couldn't bear it anymore, so he refused to leave. She didn't know what to do, so she had to sit in a daze, a little regretful that she was not diligent in her five bodies. Looking at Ye Jing, she felt that Master Ye had become a juren and read books every day, which was very amazing.

Looking at Ye Chunqiu, this young man always practices swords early in the morning, and has a tender skin and flesh, which can win people's favor.
