Chapter Thirteen Night Fragrance

Li Fan was still savoring the feeling just now, but was interrupted by the voice outside the door. He asked Tian Yongyi outside the door to enter. The two of them talked in the room for a long time before Tian Yongyi said goodbye and left.

"Bang!"

In the Hou family's study room, Hou Gongchen stood up quickly, not daring to avoid the slap of the slap. The red marks on his face were particularly obvious.

"Bad! Who asked you to kill that kid? Who gave you the courage to order this young master?"

"Don't worry, young master! Don't worry, young master! I..., I'm so angry, that boy's success," Hou Gongchen said in a low voice, and was kicked down by the angry Zhang Taizheng.

"Those people are just kept in your family. Do you have to find out your identity and dare to command this young master as a slave?"

Zhang Taizheng came to Hou Gongchen a few steps, and his fierce eyes made Hou Gongchen tremble all over.

"Young master! The villain dares not, and the villain dares not dare again! It was Liao San who said that Li Fan was the one who sent a brocade box to Beijing, so he took action.

The villain really didn’t let Liao San take action, please tell me clearly!"

Hou Gongchen's words made Zhang Taizheng stop the foot that was about to be kicked off, and he pondered for a moment before saying, "Are you sure Li Fan the one who sent the brocade box to Beijing?"

"That's what Liao San said! Don't worry, the person who does things has been sent away by the villain, and no one can find out that it was the villain who did it..." Hou Gongchen was energetic and got up from the ground and bowed.

"I dare to ruin the good things of my Zhang family, and I can't keep you!" Hou Gongchen's cold words made him shake and his waist bent deeper.

...

The Houjia Oil Farm in the west of the capital is well-known far and wide, and it is the largest oil-making workshop in the capital. Backed by a barren mountain, there is no shortage of raw matcha grass. Steaming and cooking beans can squeeze out a large amount of oil every day.

The carriage entered the oil mill and was loaded with beans. When it came out, it was either cans of oil or bean cakes pressed into pieces.

As usual, Hou Jinbao, the manager of the oil mill, was walking in the oil mill. Seeing the busy servants, a feeling of satisfaction arose in his heart.

Once upon a time, he was also a busy servant. Now he is watching others work, and he lives such a comfortable life.

After walking a few steps, Hou Jinbao couldn't help but frown.

"Is it just to hiring you a lot of money to make you lazy? I see the salary this month, don't want it!"

Manager Hou’s words made the servants’ faces sad. A foreman stood up and bent down and said, “Master Manager! It’s not that the villain is lazy, but that mountain has been bought!

The little people couldn't go up the mountain to cut wood, so they could only wait for someone to transport firewood from outside!"

"What?" Manager Hou couldn't believe his ears. Behind them was just a barren mountain. Who would buy such a big deal?

Immediately said angrily: "Nonsense! Whoever is so full that he can buy there, it must be that you guys are lazy!"

Manager Hou said this, but he took people to the barren mountain himself. He was stopped as soon as he entered the mountain. He was always used to being arrogant and the Hou family immediately took action.

As a result, they were repaired miserably. More than 20 people were knocked down by five or six people on the other side, and they didn't dare to move.

When I sent someone to inquire, the barren mountain where they often chopped wood was bought with only ten taels of silver. Manager Hou was so angry that he almost spit out an old blood.

The Youfang is the lifeblood of the Hou family. Manager Hou dared not hide it and reported it to Hou Gongchen in a scattered manner.

"What did you say? Who got out of here against me?" Hou Gongchen, whose face swollen into a bun, was immediately angry.

Manager Hou said carefully: "Go back to the young master! The villain asked, and I heard that it was the fairy building in the city..., the shopkeeper Zhou sent someone to buy it!"

"Pinxianlou? How dare they?" Hou Gongchen widened his eyes, but he didn't expect that Li Fan, who was considered a mud-legged, would dare to attack him.

And he took action very ruthlessly, and directly grabbed the Hou family's life gate. He wanted to go to Pinxianlou to settle the score with Li Fan, but when he remembered Zhang Taizheng's cold eyes before leaving, he sat down decadently.

After a long time, Hou Gongchen waved his hand and said, "Let me buy more firewood nearby and use it first!"

"What?" Manager Hou couldn't believe his ears. Is this still his arrogant and domineering young master?

Why was it bullied by a restaurant owner? How much money does it cost to buy firewood?

"Young Master..., we really want to buy..." Before Manager Hou could finish his words, Hou Gongchen kicked out.

"Li Fan! Let you be proud for a moment first. I will definitely ask you to live, die..."

...

"Brother Li! It is certainly inconvenient to buy the barren mountain, but if they are determined to buy firewood, will they not be able to do anything in a short time?"

Qi Jin sat opposite Li Fan, rubbing his hands and saying. The fight he fought with the Hou family made him feel like he was back on the battlefield.

During this period, he was idle and always wanted to fight with the Hou family again. But the Hou family was timid and asked Qi Jinbai to wait on the barren mountain for several days.

Li Fan swallowed the grapes that Zhou Xiu'e had fed, and said with a smile: "Buy firewood? Hou Gongchen thought this would be enough?"

Uncle Zhou’s matter is almost over, and Hou Gongchen will cry at that time!"

"Brother Li is not at all happy to do things. I want me to hit the door directly. Hou Gongchen's little chicken can destroy him with just one punch!"

Qi Jin picked up the grapes on the table, bit off half of the bunches and muttered.

Li Fan rolled his eyes and said, "This is the capital, not the army." If he really did that, no matter how big the backstage was, he would not be able to protect himself."

Hou Gongchen is a juren and is already a member of the gentry. If Hou Gongchen moves, he will move the entire Ming gentry group, and even the emperor will not dare to do this easily.

...

The carriages entering and leaving the Hou family's oil mill have one more task, which is to transport firewood. Although the Hou family made a lot of money less money, the oil mill is still very busy.

When Manager Hou inspected the oil mill again, he felt something was wrong. Even the busy servants around him had a constipation expression on his face.

What's wrong? Why does the oil mill always smell like a stinky smell?

Until he habitually walked to the foot of the barren mountain, his eyes suddenly widened. Many people in ragged clothes and carrying wooden barrels appeared in front of him.

There were also donkey carts driving here in the distance, pulling larger wooden barrels. Their destination seemed to be a valley in the barren mountain, and foul smells spread out from the wooden barrels.

Manager Hou suddenly became anxious. The oil they produced was eaten in their mouths, and there were more stenchy things next to them. How could anyone buy oil?

"Stop! Stop me! What are you doing? Who asked you to come here?"

Manager Hou didn't care about the stench, so he ran to the porter and asked loudly.
