Shopkeeper Qian ordered someone to take down the jade materials and sort them out, and then asked carefully: "Mr. Lu, should these jade stones still be sent to the county government?"
"certainly¡¡"
Lu Li subconsciously wanted to nod, but immediately remembered that he had already bought a courtyard and would probably move out of the county house in the next two days.
"But in a day or two, he doesn't have the ability to refine all these jade materials into jade talismans.
When the time comes, he will have to go to trouble to move the jade materials to the small house. Although he will not move it and does not need to do it himself, it would be nice to have less trouble.
So he pondered for a moment and then said: "In this case, I will store these jade materials in your shop for two days. After two days, you will have them sent to the Lu Family Courtyard in Jinyi Lane."
Lu¡¯s Villa.
In fact, it was the name that Lu Lixin came up with.
He plans to tidy up the newly purchased courtyard in the next two days. Then he will put a plaque on the courtyard door to give his first home in this world a name.
"Lu's Villa?"
Shopkeeper Qian was a little confused.
He knew about Jinyi Lane, which was located in the south of the city. Most of the merchants from other places lived there. The name Jinyi also came from this, because the merchants were mostly wealthy and often wore brocade clothes.
He has also gone to Jinyi Lane to deliver goods several times, but never heard of a Lu Family Villa there?
Is it new?
Thinking of the Mr. Lu in front of him, who also had the same surname as Lu Lu, and who might have bought it from another house, he stopped thinking about it, nodded with a smile on his face and said: "Okay, I will personally take someone there when the time comes. "
Lu Li nodded: "Then I'll trouble Shopkeeper Qian."
Seeing that he had already concluded the business deal, Mrs. Chen over there also chose a hosta and walked over with a smile.
"Mr. Lu has bought some things, and the old woman also picked out a hosta. Shopkeeper Qian, how much does this hairpin cost?"
Lu Li looked at the jade hairpin in Mrs. Chen's hand. The jade quality was not of high quality. It was made of medium material and probably cost only a few hundred coins.
Looking at what the other party is wearing, they are also at a middle level, neither good nor bad, maintaining a basic decency.
As the wife of a county magistrate, it is not easy to be so frugal.
"Chen Changdu has found a good wife."
Lu Li sighed in his heart, but said with a smile on his face: "Lu has been living in the county government for so many days, and has been troublesome to Mr. Chen and Mrs. Chen. He feels very sorry and always wants to repay something.
Let Lu pay for this hosta.
Shopkeeper Qian, how much does this hairpin and jade material cost in total? "
"How to do this?" Mrs. Chen was a little reluctant after hearing this.
"Mrs. Chen, this is Lu's intention. It is given to a friend. Please accept it, Mrs. Chen." Lu Li said sincerely.
"This" Mrs. Chen hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, I'll spare the expense, sir."
Shopkeeper Qian on the side also calculated the money and said diligently: "The price of the hosta is seven hundred and twenty cents, the low-grade jade material is fifty kilograms, the medium jade material is twenty kilograms, and the price is fifty-three taels of silver. I will erase one for you." Just a fraction, just give fifty-three taels of silver."
Lu Li glanced at Shopkeeper Qian and knew that he wanted to sell Mrs. Chen a favor, so he nodded without refusing.
After all, it is common to make small changes when doing business, and it is not enough to give gifts or bribes.
After taking out a piece of gold and settling the bill with shopkeeper Qian, Lu Li left the shop with Mrs. Chen and others.
When we got to the street, the endless crowds had thinned out a lot.
Lu Li looked up at the sky. The sun was setting in the west, and it was already around three or four o'clock in the afternoon.
During this time, some people living in towns outside the city have already begun to return.
?????????????????????????????????????????? Otherwise, we will have to go at night, and it is not easy to walk at night in this day and age, and you may die if you are not careful.
"But I live in the city, so I don't have to worry about this." Having just bought a house, Lu Li now feels an inexplicable sense of superiority as a city dweller.
Just when he was proud, Mrs. Chen next to her also looked at the sky, and then asked: "Mr. Lu, it's getting late. You just bought a house. Do you want to take advantage of the fact that there is still a little time before dark? Go back and buy some bedding and furniture, add some furnishings to your home, and then ask someone to clean it to remove the dirt, otherwise it will be uninhabitable."
Lu Li was slightly stunned when he heard Mrs. Chen's inquiry. He was so excited about buying a house that he had even forgotten all of this.
He slapped his forehead and laughed at himself: "Look at Lu's memory, he has even forgotten these things."
theMrs. Chen chuckled and said: "Mr. Lu is a divine figure. It is normal not to know these mundane things."
"Mrs. Chen is making fun of me. I'm not a god, he's just a mortal." Lu Li shook his head helplessly, and humbly asked for advice: "Mrs. Chen, I don't know much about these trivial matters. I don't know what you can do. Recommended furniture shops, bedding shops, and where can I hire cleaning people in the city?¡±
to be honest.
Lu Li was skeptical as to whether there was such an advanced profession as "housekeeping" in this world city with an obvious ancient background.
But it is obvious that he underestimated the service development of ancient people.
Mrs. Chen Lu Li asked her and said as she expected: "The woodworking and furniture shops in the city are all run by the Chai family, and the head of the Chai family is the county government official.
The silk weaving shop and the cloth shop are run by the Song family, and the head of the Song family is the official of the county government.
As for the dental agency, it is also controlled by the Sun family. The head of the Sun family is the military officer of the county government.
Mr. Lu, the head of these families, also knows that as long as Mr. Lu makes a list of the required expenses and sends them to the Chai and Song families together with the money, they will definitely handle it properly.
As for the manpower to clean up the house, just ask the head of the Sun family to send two business elders and sister-in-law to come to the husband and ask them to arrange suitable people to clean up.
Of course, if your husband is worried about these ignorant people, the old lady can also arrange servants from the county government to clean up the courtyard for him. "
Mrs. Chen introduced everything to Lu Li about the proper arrangements.
It¡¯s so detailed that it¡¯s really hard to believe that this was something the other party came up with on the spur of the moment.
Lu Li could only sigh, Chen Changdu's wife was really powerful, and she had quite a way of dealing with matters in the backyard of the house.
While sighing, he couldn't help but be frightened by the intricate connections of ancient clan forces.
Counting the Chen family's medicine shop and medical clinic, the Qian family's jewelry and jade shop, the Chai family's woodworking and furniture shop, the Song family's silk weaving shop, the Sun family's dental shop, and the Li's restaurant where Lu Li has eaten many times, there is a Almost all the large and small industries in the county, as well as the economic lifeline of the people, are controlled by these local snakes.
What is even more frightening is that each of these local snakes still holds important positions in the county government. Although they are not officials, they are the heads of the departments under them. How to implement the government orders depends on them.
Without the cooperation of these people, no matter how smart and capable the county magistrate Chen Changdu is, he will only become a decoration.
The land of a county has been penetrated to this point, no wonder there is a saying that the imperial power does not go to the countryside.
