Chapter 141 Missing

"Brother Bai Liang, you are finally here. I have something to discuss with you."

Li Laoer managed to cheer himself up a bit, "You don't want the dried meat next month?"

"Brother Bai Liang, what are you thinking? I want to discuss with you to increase the amount of dried meat you sent me."

"With jerky?"

The teahouse owner smiled and pointed to the packed lobby. "I have to thank Brother Bosong for that. The story he brought is excellent. Lately, everyone who comes to the teahouse loves listening to 'Dream Hero'."

Li Laoer looked at Li Baisong in surprise.

Li Baisong straightened his chest and raised his head, smiled and nodded. Yes, it was him.

This is a fresh story, but I didn’t expect it to become so popular in just two days.

"Little brother, you..." Li Laoer's fingers trembled, "How much money did you make?"

You're not going to buy a servant for your home right now, are you?

"It's not much, just two hundred coins. They said they'd wait a month and then add A, B, C, etc. based on how popular the story is." Li Baisong looked at the boss. "Boss, maybe I can get paid in less than a month, right?"

The boss smiled and said, "I can reserve a B-class room for you today."

After leaving the teahouse, Li Baisong had an extra three hundred coins in his hand, and the amount of dried meat that Li Laoer had to deliver increased from ten kilograms over two days to twenty kilograms over two days.

The teahouse alone can earn the family half a tael of silver a day.

Touching the one and a half taels of silver in his hand, Li Laoer felt uneasy, as he always felt that it would not be long before his mother would be able to buy a servant.

Urgent! Urgent!

I still have to go back and discuss it with my eldest and third brothers.

Li Baisong asked knowingly, "What happened to my second brother?"

"Are you hungry or thirsty? Would you like to have a cup of tea, brother?"

"No, no." Li Laoer waved his hand and silently quickened his pace.

Li Baisong followed Li Laoer towards the brothel, and as soon as he turned into the alley, he saw a few familiar beggars.

It’s those guys with hooks.

A few people huddled together, looking shifty and whispering, but no one knew what they were talking about.

Li Baisong and Li Laoer approached, and Gouzi and the others separated cautiously and squatted aside, each holding a broken bowl.

Li Baisong took out a penny from his pocket and gently put it into the eye of the hook.

The crisp sound of collision not only brought the beggars back to their senses, but also brought Li Laoer back instantly.

"What are you doing, little brother!"

This made Li Laoer very angry, and he bent down to get the money back, saying that a penny was not money!

Gouzi immediately picked up the bowl, held the money in his hand, and said to Li Baisong gratefully: "Young Master, thank you for your kindness. May you live a long life."

After saying that, he ran away with the beggars. After running a few steps, he looked back to see if Li Laoer had caught up with them.

Li Laoer wanted to chase him, but was caught by Li Baisong.

This made Li Laoer very angry.

"Little brother! How can you give money to beggars? They are just a bunch of idlers. You have too much money to burn."

"Second brother, do you want me to save the money to add more people to the family?"

Just one word to shut up Li Laoer.

Li Laoer looked at the three hundred coins in Li Baisong's arms and wanted to give them all to the beggar.

Go to hell with adding people!

Li Laoer walked forward angrily and knocked on the back door of the brothel. As early as when they arrived at the alley entrance, the people inside had already seen their whereabouts.

Hualou is the most well-informed place, and they also found out the relationship between Li Baisong and Deng Wenyan.

However, when he saw the person again, the brothel manager pretended not to know what had happened.

He smiled and gave Li Laoer three taels of silver, and made an agreement with him on the dried meat for next month.

The brothel manager handed Li Laoer another purse.

"This is half of the deposit. As a rule from now on, we will pay half of the deposit first."

Li Laoer took the two money bags, put down the dried meat, and left with Li Baisong.

The brothel manager nodded at Li Baisong and said, "Young Master, you seem to be in better spirits lately. In our building..."

Li Laoer blocked Li Baisong, and the brothel manager laughed even more wildly.

"Would you like to come in for a cup of tea today, Mr. Li? Hongliu just made a pot of tea."

Li Laoer's face suddenly turned red. When he came here, he would indeed take the opportunity to drink a cup of tea. He didn't dare to touch the girls here, so he would take a sneak peek while drinking tea.

"No, I don't want to drink it. I don't like tea. You are busy, don't say hello, we will leave first."

Li Laoer pulled Li Baisong and ran faster than a rabbit. Turning out of the intersection, he pretended to be puzzled and said, "Strange, really strange. It's been such a long time since I delivered the dried meat, but this is the first time someone paid a deposit in advance."

Li Baisong could feel the brothel manager's vague gaze as soon as he stepped into the brothel.

This deposit should be for him.

As expected of a place of fireworks, it is well-informed.

"Maybe he's attracted by the fact that Second Brother earns so much money, and he really wants to invite Second Brother for tea." Li Baisong threatened Li Laoer half-truthfully.

There may not be no reason for this.

Li Laoer jumped up suddenly.

"Little brother, stop talking nonsense. This is not the money I earn, it's the family's money. Mother still needs to build a house, and the money she has is far less than what she needs. If I take this back, it won't be enough for her to hire people to hammer the stone."

"Are you going to build a house at home?" Li Baisong looked at Li Laoer.

"Ah? I didn't tell you that?"

"Second brother didn't say a word before, he just brought it up."

Li Laoer turned the tables and said, "You can't blame me, it's because you scared me just now that I forgot to tell you. Mother was thinking of buying a piece of land today, the wasteland over by the bamboo garden, more than ten acres, with several large rocks on it..."

The two brothers walked forward while talking.

"Brother, they seem to have made quite a bit of money. Should we follow them and get some more?"

Gouzi patted his younger brother on the head and said, "What do you want? Is today the day to ask for money? Look, it's only been a few days and I'm almost dead. Go back to squatting at the entrance of the brothel. I want to see how people who come here get lost."

"Would the people there be so kind as to invite them to sleep with the girls?"

Hook wondered.

If a brothel wants people, it should be pretty girls. What's the point of kidnapping his little brother?

You don’t have to worry about dirtying the floor or having guests dislike you.

The younger brother covered his head and squatted back in the brothel alley with his men.

Li Baisong looked back from a distance and felt that there seemed to be fewer beggars today.

Maybe he went to beg somewhere else.

When Li Laoer saw Li Baisong walking away and looking back, he grabbed him and walked forward.

"Don't look at it, don't look at it, go away, go away, mom must be waiting anxiously."

Qin Fangci didn't wait any longer.

She went to the drugstore to buy ointment for San Ya, and took the opportunity to examine Li Yulan and prescribed a few more Chinese medicines. She was currently discussing the seasonings with the boss in the grocery store.

Qin Fangci wanted more than just some information, she thought of another way to make money.

She prepares the marinade ingredients and sells them directly, just like she sold seasoning packets in her previous life. You can buy whatever you want to eat and take it home to marinate it yourself.

The main reason is that there are too many places to spend money now.

She grinds all the ingredients into fine powder and then asks people to sell them far away, thus solving the problem that braised food cannot be sold far away.

She is also benefiting the people here and adding some fragrance to everyone's dinner table.
