Datang Happy Landlord

Chapter 100 The Two Stewards
Chapter [-], the two stewards officially took office
Li Yu beckoned to call the two dogs;

"A certain family asked you. Did you go to the matter that I explained to you last night?"

"If you go home to the master, the villain went to tell the nine elders of burning bricks last night that there are more than a dozen carriages still in Qinling, waiting to pull limestone into the factory, and other horses are in the factory.

Early this morning, the villain went again. Jiu Lao said that it had been arranged properly, and asked Qinling to bring these more than a dozen war horses back with today's limestone and exchange them before they could gather.

After all, it’s less than twenty miles away. It’s almost time to come back from Qinling. The villain will go again. If he comes back, he will be brought over. "

Seeing that Ergou was well arranged, Li Yu patted Ergou on the shoulder and said;
"Well, it's good. You can go back and have a look. If everything is in order, ask a few more people to help get it here.

After a while, two horses were brought to the iron yard. As for when to start, wait for a certain family to call. "

"Yes, don't worry, Langjun. The villain will do it now. When the horses are brought over, the villain will be waiting at the door. When Langjun needs it, he will send a servant to speak, and the villain will pull two horses. go in."

Li Yu was very satisfied with Ergou and Housan's ingenuity, but he never asked what the guy's name was, so he asked in a happy mood today;
"I only call you two dogs all day, and I don't know your real name, so tell me."

The two dogs were about to leave, and they answered generously after listening to the owner's inquiry;

"Reporting to Langjun, the villain's surname is Du, so he is called Du Ergou. He is 22 years old this year."

Li Yu felt that Ergou was unpleasant and was suspected of swearing, so he wanted to change his name, but he didn't know if Ergou could accept it, so he tried to say;
"Your name sounds awkward, and it's not very arrogant. Today, someone wants to give you the surname Li, so he will follow the surname of a certain family, but I don't know what you think. Would you be willing to accept it?"

How does Li Yu know the detailed rules here? If this Tang Dynasty is not a confidant in his confidant, it is impossible to follow the family name.

Furthermore, it's not that Ergou's name is bad. The medical conditions in ancient times were not good enough. Many people were always delayed when they got sick, and they died halfway.

But the ancients didn't understand this, they only attributed the bad to God, and the gods from all walks of life, for fear of the envy of the gods, they all gave tattered names.

What two dogs, dog eggs, iron eggs, black eggs, etc., the purpose of this is to prevent God from being jealous and to grow tenaciously.

This kind of practice, there are still many people in later generations. Believe it or not, some people's names are very domineering.

But most of these people can't bear it. In the end, when something goes wrong, those who go in go in.Good start and good end are rare.

Therefore, the idea that the ancients were afraid of the jealousy of the gods is not true, and there is no merit.

There is nothing insulting about the name Ergou.

Let's get back to the original story, Ergou heard that the owner of the family wanted to reward him with the surname Li, and almost burst his cerebral blood vessels, causing him to faint. He really didn't expect such a good thing to happen to him.

After being stunned for a moment, he hurriedly made a joke with his hands, and went on with a big gift, his head was almost in his crotch, and he said excitedly;

"The villain thanked the patriarch for his surname, so he asked the patriarch to give him another name. The villain is grateful."

Li Yu tilted his head and thought for a while before saying;
"You are loyal and loyal, so let's take the word "loyalty". From now on, you will be called Li Zhong."

The two dogs raised their bodies, smiling like a spring breeze;
"Little man Li Zhong, thank the Patriarch for his name."

Li Yu was about to leave when he turned around and saw Hou San looking at Ergou enviously, and then looked back at Ergou's proud and arrogant expression.

I thought to myself, these two are both family sons and servants, and they are loyal. Now that they have given Ergou a name, I am afraid that Housan feels uncomfortable, so it is better to take this opportunity and simply cook it in one pot, anyway, it does not need to spend money.

Li Yu, who had figured out this section, greeted three directly;

"Hou Sanlang, someone wants to give you a name like Li Zhong, are you willing?"

Hou San was not jealous of Ergou. The two of them played together from childhood to adulthood, but they were very envious that he was given the surname of Li's house by the owner of his family.
This is a very important matter, and it is also a servant of the family, the highest honor,
When I was thinking wildly, I didn't want this big happy event to fall on my head, so I hurriedly bent down to answer;

"Report to Langjun, the villain is willing. Please give me your name. The villain will go back immediately to change the genealogy."

Li Yu hummed and said;
"The previous two dogs have been renamed Li Zhong, and you are called Li Yi. This is the righteousness of loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, and Li Zhong's loyalty is also the loyalty of loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness.

The two of you don't go back and write the wrong word, then there is a lot of difference. "

Both of them nodded, indicating that they remembered and would not be mistaken.

"slow down"

When the two were about to leave for work, they quickly turned around and said at the same time;
"I don't know what else Langjun ordered?"

Li Yu said; "Since I changed my name and took a certain surname, I just want to make it clear today that a certain family is really loyal and righteous when looking at you two, and they don't want to treat you badly.

From today onwards, Li Yi will be the chief steward of the forecourt of the county men's mansion, in charge of all affairs.
Li Zhong is the second manager and assists Li Yi. After that, he still needs to continue to be diligent and not slack. "

The two of them were overjoyed. They didn't expect that there would be many good things in one day.

The two happily congratulated each other as they walked.No wonder the two were excited, it was indeed Aye, the last chief steward of the manor, Li Yi, who passed away two or three years ago.

Li Yi replaced his Aye's errand, but it has not been publicly decided.
Aye, the second manager of Li Zhong, is getting old again. He is recuperating in Zhuangzi, and his two important positions have been vacant for a long time.

Hou San has been acting as the chief steward, and Ergou has also been the second steward, but it has been temporary for more than two years.
There is always some nondescript, but today ended this state inadvertently, and with a hammer, the two must be both happy and excited, and they will issue orders in the future, which is justifiable. "

Wu Changfeng felt today that Li Jialangjun was a little weird. Since he came to the iron yard, he and Zhang Honest, who was the leader, sneakily bit his ears, and even took a piece of paper for Zhang Honest to look at.
That Zhang honestly asked two of the best craftsmen to help build it. Wu Changfeng had already fallen behind after not working for many years, and naturally he was not in the middle of it.

At the time of a stick of incense, Zhang honestly handed the horseshoe to Li Yu for inspection.

Li Yu thinks it's done, it's just that the groove is too shallow. If it is put on a flute, I'm afraid it will protrude from the surface of the horseshoe.
So I explained it to Zhang Honestly, the three returned to the furnace, and when the second time was finished, Li Yu kept nodding, and asked to hit a bunch of nails.

They then informed Li Zhong, and brought two horses in. The crowd brought wooden stands, lifted the horses' hooves to fix them, and stamped all four hooves with iron pieces.

Zhang honesty is infinitely happy;

"Lang Jun is so clever that he thought of such a clever plan, and the little old man admires it."

While talking, he instructed the crowd, stopped the work of making iron pots, and began to produce horseshoes with all his strength, and Wu Changfeng also participated.

At this time, Wu Changfeng, where is he in the mood to work, he can't wait to see Li Dai now and report this shocking news to the captain.

Li Yu asked Li Zhong to pull two horses to the front yard, and went to Cheng Chusi's small courtyard by himself.

Cheng Chusi, who had just finished breakfast, was taking out a book and reading it with gusto, when he was interrupted by Li Yu who came in, and was dragged to walk around the front yard.

Cheng Chusi asked strangely;

"What's the matter, Brother Xian, so anxious?"

Li Yu knew that he couldn't explain clearly, so he simply didn't explain, just said;

"Brother, follow me to see what's going on. When the world is full, you will naturally know everything..."
