The boss looked at his two brothers, then at Li Baolu, and thought that if he turned around and ran for his life at this time, he could probably escape, but his two brothers might not.

He hesitated for a moment, still reluctant to abandon these two younger brothers who had been with him for seven or eight years. They often have subordinates, but such good subordinates are rare.

So the boss stomped his feet, gritted his teeth, and asked, "What does the heroine want us to do?"

"It's very simple, just ask you to find treasure." Li Baolu turned around and pointed to a restaurant not far away, "Why don't we go there and have a chat? Tell your brother to invite the other two."

The fierce face immediately turned his head and stared at the stupid big man, "Go!"

"Why should I go, I want to protect my brother here."

With a fierce face and a sneer, "Because you're stupid, staying here will only be a drag on Big Brother, go quickly, or I'll beat you up."

The boss also gave the stupid big one a look, "You go, fifth, let the third stay."

The stupid big man turned around with aggrieved expression and left.

Li Baolu looked at his back with a smile and said, "Don't bring extra people, otherwise it's very easy to cut off two heads in an instant with my speed."

The silly big man froze slightly, and then pretended to leave as if nothing had happened.

Seeing that he was gone, Li Baolu turned around and said to the two of them, "Let's go, let's go to the restaurant and talk in detail."

The two of them followed behind her aggrievedly, and Heart also followed with a dull face. What she saw and heard today surpassed her understanding of the world and life. The impact was too great. Now her mind is blank, only instinct Here it is.

Relying on instinct, Heart poured tea for Li Baolu blankly, and then stood behind her with a dull face.

The boss and fierce face directly defined her as: silly girl!

The boss sat opposite Li Baolu with a serious face, and said solemnly: "You want us to find the treasure for you? Then do you have a map?"

Li Baolu burst out laughing, shook her head and said, "No map."

She turned around and took out a few pieces of paper from Heart's body, spread them out in front of them, and said with a smile, "This is the land deed of my village and shop."

The boss stared slightly, is this a reward for them?

"You're beautiful." Li Baolu cast a sideways glance at him, as if she knew what he was thinking, and said, "I'll let you go to my servant's house to search for treasures, find all the money and things worth more than a hundred coins , you can also interrogate them, as long as the method is not too bloody, in the end we will get 30-70 points, I will give you three points."

"Copy your servants?" The fierce face widened his eyes, "Aren't they your servants, just ask them to hand them over."

"Do you think I'm stupid, or they are stupid?"

"But they are your servants, aren't they afraid that you will sell them?"

The boss patted the younger brother on the head, and said in a deep voice, "The slave is bullying the master?"

"That's right!" Li Baolu said, "And I won't sell them. If I sell them, someone might redeem them, or they can redeem themselves, so I want them to stay in my farm, at least until I won't let them go until I'm sure everything is out."

The boss gave her a thumbs up, "It's ruthless!"

"But there is one thing I don't understand," the boss changed his tone, stared at her and said in a deep voice, "You have property and money, why are you still a thief?"

"Since when have I been a thief?"

"You still don't admit it," the fierce face said angrily, "Didn't you rob us of our 20,000 taels when you were in Guangzhou?"

"Oh, what are you talking about," Li Baolu said with a smile, "Most of the Yuan family's property was acquired in Guangzhou. How much can he have as an aide's annual salary? So much money is taken from other places. I think the money should be taken from civilians." For the people, so I donated all the 20,000 taels, but I didn’t embezzle a penny, so I can’t be considered a thief.”

The boss's heart relaxed slightly, he glanced at the land deed and house deed on the table and said, "I, I'll take over this business."

The fierce face also breathed a sigh of relief, those who can donate the money should not be bad people, and the risk of cooperating with her is less.

Next, Li Baolu discussed with the boss about the order of treasure hunting and various precautions.

After they had settled the deal, the big fool came with the second and fourth children.

The three of them discussed for a long time, but in the end they still had no good solution. They couldn't leave the boss and the third child to escape alone, so they could only come here dejectedly.

The stupid big man blamed himself very much, the boss let him go, but he couldn't think of a good way to save them. He stared at Li Baolu sadly and angrily.

The boss patted his head when he saw it, and said angrily: "What are you staring at, why don't you call someone when you see the heroine?"

The stupid big man straightened his chest and shouted: "Brother, let's fight her, anyway, we have a lot of people!"

You can't fight against too many people. The last time you fought against people, you were defeated in just a few breaths. Have you forgotten?

Everyone go stare at the idiot.

"What are you fighting for? She is our boss now, so hurry up and call her boss!"

The stupid big man put on a stubborn face and didn't yell, he felt that this was the boss's plan to delay the attack, but it was too spineless, so he didn't yell!

The ferocious face hated iron and iron, stepped forward and pulled him aside and muttered to him for a while, the stupid big man was full of surprise and shock, and stared at Li Baolu in disbelief for a while, and it took a long time to digest the news, He said in a daze: "She is so powerful, why should she invite us?"

"No matter how powerful she is, she is still a girl and a master. She can't go to the servant's house to smash and rob. Of course, people like us should do this kind of thing. She just needs to watch from the sidelines. "

The silly big man felt much better after hearing this.

The second child and the fourth child also got a general idea from the vicious face and the silly big man's muttering, their eyes lit up, this business is good!

Zero risk, high returns, much better than being a thief!

The two looked at Li Baolu together, patted their chests and said, "Don't worry, boss, we will help you find all the treasures, let alone those worth more than 100 Wen, as long as they are valuable, we will find them for you."

"That's right, if you want to talk about who is better at finding treasures, it must be our five brothers. As long as we can enter the door, no treasure will be able to hide from our eyes."

The boss felt that the two younger brothers were too embarrassing, so he slapped them one by one, turned to Li Baolu and said, "Nvxia, let's go."

"Then let's start with the three shops in the capital."

The three shops assigned to them by the Gu family are distributed in the south, north and east of the outer city. One is a cloth shop, the other is a bookstore, and the other is a grocery store.

But Bu Zhuang paid the most, and lost more than 400 taels a year in terms of loss alone. It is said that the goods were not properly preserved and were drenched in water, so they had to be sold at a low price.

And this loss occurs every year, either because the cloth is damp, or the cloth is gnawed by mice, or it is out of date and cannot be sold.

Because the reason was too deceitful and she lost the most money, Li Baolu decided to copy from the cloth village.

A group of seven hired a carriage and a mule cart to the south of the city.

Li Baolu and Hongtao were sitting in the carriage, while the five were squeezed into the mule cart.

They stole things surreptitiously and robbed things blatantly, and they were very familiar with this set. As soon as they arrived at the gate of the cloth village, they let out their aura, with a fierce look on their faces.

Li Baolu helped Hongtao's hand get out of the car, looked up at the cloth shop's signboard, and then at the cloth shop with a good flow of people, she raised her lips and said to Lao Dao: "Don't scare my customers away, look The business is not bad, and I want to continue to do business in the future.”

There was a glint in the boss's eyes, he patted his chest and said: "Madam, don't worry, we know it well."

After confirming the employment relationship, the boss changed his address to Li Baolu. Although they didn't exchange names, he positioned himself as a subordinate and called him wife directly.

The boss waved his hand and shouted: "Boys, come on!"

The five rushed into the cloth shop like wolves and tigers, and the people inside screamed. Li Baolu heard a guy shout angrily: "What are you doing? Do you know where this is? This is the cloth shop of the Zhongyonghou Mansion!"

"What are you shouting about? We are here to inspect the cloth village under the order of our wife. Why don't you go and entertain the guests? Are you waiting if you don't see the guests?" Squeezing out a flower, he said with a smile: "I've surprised you all, our store is checking the accounts today, so all the cloth in the store will be discounted by 20%."

The eyes of the guests lit up, and they all looked at the shop assistant.

The guy was frightened and angry, pointing at the old road: "You, you are so brave, our shopkeeper is not here, what qualifications do you have to be the master of our cloth shop?"

The boss looked serious, turned slightly sideways and said, "I'm not qualified, but my wife is always qualified, right?"

Li Baolu held Heart's hand and entered the door, looked at the store clerk who was holding a piece of cloth for defense and said with a smile: "That's right, well done, it's not that whoever comes in and says he is his wife's is his wife's, but Unfortunately, I happened to bring something to prove my identity."

Li Baolu opened the house deed of the cloth house and put it in front of his eyes, and said with a smile: "Also, this cloth house no longer belongs to the Zhongyonghou's mansion, but to the Gu's mansion in Lingsheng Street. Your master is the third man of the Zhongyonghou's mansion." The third master of the house, the uncle of the Gu family in Lingsheng Street, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, if someone comes to make trouble in the future, remember this registration number, you know?"

The man was stunned, and it took him a while to realize. He dropped the cloth in his hand, bowed his waist and said, "Madam, why are you here?"

"Oh, I heard that the cloth village loses nearly six hundred taels of silver every year, and only one item of loss is more than four hundred taels. I'm curious about how you manage the cloth village, so I came to inspect it." She didn't care about other customers in the shop at all, she smiled at him and said: "If the cloth shop is really difficult to operate, I think it's better to close it, because I lose so much every year, even if I have gold and silver mountains, it's not enough." It’s filled, when the time comes, you can go to the farm to plant the land, my wife, I don’t have much else, but there is no shortage of fields, so I’d better hire less tenant farmers.”

The man just felt like falling into an ice cave.

He is also a slave who has signed a death contract. Working in the cloth village is not only easy and decent, but also has a lot of money every month, but if he goes to the farm...

He shivered involuntarily, and explained with a pale face: "Madam, in fact, Bu Zhuang didn't suffer a lot. As long as we are careful, we should still have some surplus every year..."

"But I see that you have been losing money for the past three years." Li Baolu turned her head and said with a smile to the guests: "Our cloth shop is going to be temporarily closed, and the guests have to hurry up to choose the cloth. I am very sorry for the inconvenience caused to you. , so now all the fabrics you choose are 20% off."

The guests immediately became excited. They were still hesitant about which piece of fabric to choose, but now they picked up all the fabrics they liked and said, "Guys, come and help us cut the fabric, I want all of this piece." , I want three feet for this horse..."
