"This is my uncle's room!" When he came to Lin's mansion, Situ Meng pulled Situ Li to look at his new room, "I asked Luo Wu and the others to clean up last night, and my room is next to it. It will be more convenient for us to chat and visit each other in the future Already!"

Situ Li nodded, put the luggage on the table in the room, and asked Situ Meng to sit down. The servants were very winky this time, and they made a pot of tea in advance and brought a few small plates of snacks. Put down the snacks, pour After having tea, he withdrew.

Jing Shen found a seat on his own and sat down. The uncle and nephew sat down at the round table. Situ Meng saw that the uncle's eyes were a little black and black. He must have gone back to pack his luggage last night and lacked sleep. He said thoughtfully: "Uncle, would you like Take a break first?"

"It's okay, I usually stay up late." Situ Li said.

He explained to Situ Meng his encounters in these years, "After being kicked out of the house for some reason, I traveled around and went back to the south of the Yangtze River—remember? Before I became the Minister of the Ministry of War, I sent two In [-], he worked in Jiangnan."

"After I came to Jiangnan, I settled down here, doing some business with my friends, and occasionally going overseas with sea caravans, but most of the time I stayed in Yangzhou... I will introduce my friend to you if I have a chance. It's very interesting. Alone." When Situ Li mentioned his friend, his eyes softened, and he could see that he had a very good relationship with that friend.

"Actually, I came here this time mainly to see if you are in good health and if you need help in your life. Now that you have adjusted well and the manor is thriving under your care, I am relieved." Situ Li looked at the depth of field, "Not only that, but you also met a good friend. It seems that I was worrying too much before."

Hearing his uncle's tone, Situ Meng thought he was going to leave, so he became nervous, but Situ Li said: "Although it was two years late, my uncle has found Meng'er, and I will take care of you for my elder brother and sister-in-law. You don't have to work hard at every step." Now, you can be like other people of the same age, with my uncle around, no one can bully you!"

Hearing this, Jing Shen stared at Situ Li for a while, then lowered his head, wondering what he was thinking.

After talking about the past with Situ Meng, Situ Li asked him to call the steward and accountant of the current villa.

Now Situ Meng has not found a person to take the position of steward, but Luo Wu has followed him in the past, and Luo Wu manages all the affairs of the Lin Manor including the manor. Although he is not famous, he has already established a reality.

After hearing Situ Li's words, Situ Meng knew that it was his uncle who was planning to rectify the manor and made a big move.He immediately ordered someone to find the two of them.

Luo Wu was very familiar with Situ Li, but it was the first time that Sun Xiucai saw Situ Li, and was overwhelmed by his majesty, so he dared not speak for a while.

Situ Li asked the two to sit down, and Situ Meng sat obediently and quietly next to his uncle, like a wandering child who had finally found support and had no intention of interfering at all.

After flipping through the ledger, Situ Li nodded in satisfaction, and said to Sun Xiucai: "The ledger is clear and neat, and the source and destination of each account is explained in detail. It's a good job."

After being praised by Situ Li, Sun Xiucai scratched his face shyly, and then he heard the other party say: "Keep going. Now I will invest 500 taels of silver in the villa as the daily operating expenses. Go back and think about it in a few days. Discuss with Luo Wu, what is lacking in the villa, first use this money to make up for it, and ask me if it is not enough. Now there are ten tenants, but the area of ​​the manor is so large, ten households are far from enough, we will reserve seventy for now. Luo Wu, take the old tenant farmers to divide the farmland according to the types of plants that can be grown in the soil, and mark the places that cannot be used for planting, and build landscape buildings and workshops in the future."

Situ Li turned his head and said to his nephew: "The villa not only relies on renting out land to make money, but you can also build some small workshops to make money... But this is a matter for the future. The most important thing right now is to expand the number of long-term tenants. Cultivate fields as soon as possible, and these fields cannot be left vacant.”

Regarding the uncle's arrangement, Situ Meng only nodded. He didn't even think about what the uncle said before. He just followed the system tasks step by step and never thought about what to do next. Anyway, the system would Arranged.

After the order was issued, Luo Wu and Sun Xiucai went to work immediately. When they were settling accounts, Sun Xiucai remembered seeing Situ Li's aura and appearance just now, and said to Luo Wu: "Is that the young master's uncle? He has momentum! Just sitting there, he feels very majestic! And he looks very good, very heroic, which is exactly the configuration of the protagonist in the story! He should not have turned thirty? He looks quite young."

"It should be more than 30, right? I can't remember. You haven't seen my master. He is so majestic and imposing that even the princes are afraid of him! But when the master is at home, he is very gentle, especially to his wife and young master! The third master was also a high official before. He was the champion of Jinke in that session, and later became the Minister of the Ministry of War. He was not yet 25 years old when he was the Minister of the Ministry of War. The so-called official authority... Well, I don’t understand either.”

When Luo Wu and Sun Xiucai were discussing themselves, Situ Li was looking at Situ Meng and said, "How long have you been wearing this dress? The sleeves and trousers don't fit well... You are still growing, and your bones are not yet fully formed." Chang Kai, you should order your clothes more diligently. Did you bring these from the capital? Could it be that they stopped buying clothes for you after your eldest brother and sister-in-law left?"

My uncle didn't say that Situ Meng hadn't noticed yet, but now that my uncle said it, Situ Meng realized that his sleeves were short, his wrists were exposed, and his trousers were not long enough, so hanging them was a bit funny.

"Anyway, there's nothing to do this afternoon. I'll take you to Yangzhou to buy some new clothes first! It's said that 'a man depends on his clothes', but the owner's own clothes don't fit well. Can you tell me that your subordinates saw it?"

Situ Li said earnestly: "Don't think it's a waste. Afterwards, you have to recruit new tenants, deal with other rich merchants and landlords, and occasionally add Mr. Liu, the magistrate of Ningshan County, not to mention how expensive your clothes are, but at least It should be neat and tidy, it can’t be like it is now, where a piece is short here and a piece is missing there.”

"But..." Situ Meng still wanted to refute, "You just voted 500 taels into the manor...this..."

"You are my nephew, you can be regarded as half a son. Isn't it natural for a father to invest in his son's business and buy clothes for him?" Uncle... that kid over there, do you want to go to Yangzhou together?"

Just as Situ Meng was about to speak, he heard his uncle yelling something behind him. Turning around, he saw that the black girl was sitting on a tree in an out-of-shape manner, with one leg hanging down, shaking.

Depth of Field jumped down from the tree, glanced at Situ Li as he passed by, and walked up to Situ Meng.

The little monkey Fu Erdai hangs on Jingshen's body like a pendant, he rattles twice for nothing, and doesn't know whether he is cursing or expressing happiness.

Because today was not the day when the locomotives were opened, the three of them had no choice but to leave the manor for Yangzhou on horseback. They walked quickly, but the manor was thrown into a panic by Situ Li's rectification order.

Situ Li bought several clothes for his nephew, all in complete sets, and even accessories such as sachets and pendants.

The clothes and shoes are all tailor-made, and it will take two or three days before they can be picked up.Situ Meng listened to the shopkeeper's settlement, the money disappeared like running water, and his heart ached as if he was using his own money.

On the contrary, Hei Niuer was much calmer. Situ Li wanted to wrap his clothes, so he didn't refuse at all, and accepted everything, as if he was the real nephew.

After shopping for the two children's things, Situ Li looked at the little monkey hanging on Jing Shen's body, and bought two more small clothes for the little monkey.The rich second-generation monkey put on brand-new little clothes and pulled them with his little hands, showing no signs of discomfort.

Among the group of people plus the little monkey, Situ Meng was the one who didn't adapt the most, and he was not to blame. After two or three years of being neglected, he was suddenly held in the palm of his hand and cared for. Everyone had to have a period of adaptation.

Seeing a teahouse from a distance, Situ Meng hurriedly said, "Shall we have dinner there? I heard that this is the most famous teahouse in Yangzhou! I...I invite you to dinner!"

Situ Li raised his eyebrows and glanced at him. The black girl covered her belly and laughed, while the person who was laughed at looked blank.

Situ Li smiled and said nothing, but in the end the black girl had had enough of laughing, and showed mercy to Situ Mengkepu, "Do you know who the owner of this teahouse is?"

Situ Meng was still at a loss, Hei Niuer said: "Why are you so stupid? This teahouse is owned by your uncle! Do you want to treat your uncle to dinner in the teahouse owned by your uncle?"

Situ Meng: "..."

No wonder his uncle is so rich, the teahouse alone probably makes more money in a day than he does in a year...

"Then..." Situ Meng thought, how about switching to another family?But wouldn't it be cheaper for my uncle's opponent?Alas, what to do now?So embarrassing!

"Come on, I think this teahouse is good. Uncle, I don't have enough money, so I need to trouble Menger for a treat!" Situ Li stepped into the teahouse first, followed by Depth of Field, and Situ Meng walked at the end dejectedly.

After buying clothes and accessories all day, after dinner, Situ Li saw that it was getting dark and he had two children by his side, so he decided to rest in the backyard of the teahouse for the night and return to the villa the next day.

"There are still rooms here?" Situ Meng originally thought this was a tea house.

Situ Li: "Yes, there is a row of wing rooms in the backyard, but they are not open to the public. They are just used when my friends and I pass by here to rest. My mansion is on the other side of Yangzhou, which is too far away. I will take you there another day I'm playing around in my mansion, there are many little things bought from overseas, you should like them."

Situ Meng responded immediately, and Situ Li turned to Jingshen: "What about you? Do you want to send a letter to your family?"

"I have already sent someone back to tell him." Jing Shen replied.

"That's good." Situ Li entertained the two of them into the backyard, "You can choose any room you want, and I'll find you two sets of clothes for you to change!"

Situ Li said, go to the teahouse in front, there is definitely no change of clothes suitable for the two children, and they stay in the teahouse on weekdays, except for him, they are all around the same age, there are changes of clothes, but they are too big , the two children couldn't put it on at all.

"Before Jinyunfang closes, go buy two sets of ready-made clothes!" Situ Li said.

The shopkeeper: "Is it the two young masters wearing it just now?"

Situ Li nodded, and gave a money bag to the shopkeeper, who immediately went out with the money bag.As soon as Situ Li turned around, he suddenly found that Jing Shen was standing behind him.

Situ Li looked behind Jing Shen, and then looked around, the teahouse was closed, except for the shopkeeper who was still settling accounts, the other workers had already gone home.

"See Your Highness Sixth! I saw that His Highness had no intention of revealing his identity before, so I offended you a lot. I hope Your Highness will forgive me!" Situ Li wanted to kneel down, but Jing Shen stretched out his hand to support him, and stood up accordingly.

"I really don't want to reveal the identity of the prince, you have done a good job."

"His Royal Highness Haihan!"

"Okay, it's all in microservices, so don't engage in so many red tapes, just treat me as a child of an ordinary family, just a friend of your nephew."
