In fact, this glass is only a semi-finished product and does not have much effect. If optical glass can be developed, it will be a major breakthrough for human civilization. By then, telescopes and magnifying glasses will be available.

Of course, this has to be done step by step. There is no need to rush. Anyway, Li Qi is not in a hurry to make money from this glass.

The New Year is coming, whether it is now or in the future, this is the busiest time for businessmen. Compared with other restaurants, Zuixianju is even more incredible. It has many industries, a wide range of areas, and huge accounts. It is simply

A huge project. In desperation, Li Qi had no choice but to ask Cai Jing for a few days' leave, and fully helped Wu Furong start the settlement work.

Facing the books of accounts, Li Qi watched from morning to night until his eyes almost went blind. He screamed in pain, God, please give me a calculator.

For three days, Li Qidu, Mrs. Qin, and Wu Furong stayed at home to settle accounts. Later, Bai Qiannuo also joined in to help. Unfortunately, the amount of money earned from the canned meat going south was still unknown, so the exact amount could not be obtained.

However, Zui Xianju was only part of it. There were also the Zhou family silk and satin shop, workshops, Taishi Academy, bars, Hong Wan Gambling House, and charity foundations. These accounts made Li Qi want to die.

Now that he has everything, he finally understands why Wu Furong seems to have endless debts to settle all day long.

However, the accounts are secondary. The key is the distribution of interests between Li Qi and Mrs. Qin, because many of them are Li Qi's personal properties and have nothing to do with Mrs. Qin. Moreover, the bonuses he won are almost all his personal income and not related to Zui Qi.

It has nothing to do with Xianju. Although he regards Mrs. Qin as a family member, the accounts still need to be calculated clearly. But the problem is that Wu Furong did not think of this when he kept the accounts, which also added a lot of difficulty to the settlement project.

There was no other way. Li Qi had to give up the principle of not exposing his wealth and borrow people from Fanlou, Hongwan Gambling House, and Zhou Family Silk and Satin Shop. However, they also had to settle accounts, and the borrowed people were simply not enough, so Li Qi shamelessly asked

Taishi's Mansion, Gao Taiwei's Mansion, Bai's Mansion and Wang's Mansion borrowed people. But Li Qi still didn't want Zuixianju's accounts to be completely transparent to outsiders, so he only gave them a part of their accounts.

That night, Li Qi, the four young masters, Zhou Hua, Xu Fei and others gathered in the bar and began to settle the bar's accounts. This settlement project was the easiest, because the four young masters all invested.

.So the accounts had to be absolutely transparent to them, and Li Qi didn't have to worry too much. Their family sent out the most powerful accountants in the house, about thirty people, sitting in the women's room upstairs, banging and banging.

Thinking of the abacus.

Li Qi also took a rare breath and sat in the VIP area with these young men to play stud. He looked like a boss. Li Qi had taught them this stud today. After all, the big boy could only play four.

It is not suitable for so many people to play together. There are mountains of copper coins piled up in front of everyone. At a glance, the whole group looks like they are suddenly rich.

Hong Tianjiu played a few games, rubbed his hands and said excitedly: "Brother Li, your stud game is really interesting."

Li Qi waved his hand and said with a smile: "This is nothing. When the casino is built next year, I will teach you more interesting gambling methods, but you will have to borrow props."

"Three passes."

Fan Shaobai threw three balls. Then he asked Li Qi: "Master Li, tomorrow is the gourmet feast in Jinlou. I heard that the old lady didn't invite you to Zuixianju?"

Li Qi shrugged and said, "Yeah. But that's okay, I don't have time to go anyway. By the way, did she invite you?"

Fan Shaobai nodded and said: "Of course I'm invited. That woman has always been afraid that others would make irresponsible remarks about her leaving Fan Lou, so she always used secret tactics to deal with Fan Lou. On the surface, she pretended to respect me. Hum,

How shameless."

There is nothing shameful about this. If it were me, I would do the same thing. Li Qi smiled and said politely: "Then what dishes have you prepared? Do you need my help?"

Hong Tianjiu chuckled: "Brother, don't underestimate Shao Bai now. Now Fan Lou has a chef with superb cooking skills. The food he cooks is delicious, but he is worse than you."

A little bit."

Gao Yanei said with a lewd smile: "Yes, she is still a female chef. It seems that Shaobai and I have similar hobbies. I will add Sanguan."

"I don't dare to compete with you in Yanei." Fan Shaobai slightly glared at the slut and said, "Yanei, I'm a married woman, so don't act recklessly."

Gao Yanei said impatiently: "I know, I know, you've said it so many times, don't worry."

Fan Shaobai said angrily: "Can I rest assured? The second day Sister-in-law Song Wu came to my Fan House, you asked Lu Qian to invite people out and asked them if they were married. I was almost pissed off by you."

Gao Yanei curled his lips and said disapprovingly: "I'm just asking, where did you go?"

If you are shameless to this level, then you can't call it shameless. Things must be reversed when things go to extremes. Li Qi also heard a little bit about this new chef in Fan Lou, but he has been too busy recently and has no time to go to Fan Lou. He said with a smile: "

So, this female chef is quite good at cooking, and she can even gain the yamen's discernment."

Gao Yanei became more energetic and said: "That's quite good. I don't know how many times better looking than Zhang Chun'er. He is in his thirties, but he is still fresh and fresh. I can't believe that he is a cook. He shouldn't be married."

, What a pity, what a pity.”

A slut. Everyone despises him.

Fan Shaobai was too lazy to pay attention to this pervert and said to Li Qi: "Thanks to you. If you hadn't reminded me last time, I might have been snatched away by Old Fox Cai."

"Oh? There is such a thing?"

Fan Shaobai nodded and said: "After I came out of the Wang Tower that day, I found Song Wusao who made the fake puffer fish. Unexpectedly, Cai Lao San also happened to come. I was afraid that Cai Lao Fox would come, so I simply went ahead and promised to make that fake puffer fish.

Sister-in-law Song’s family all came to live in my house, and she was paid the highest salary among our chefs in Tokyo. But it was money well spent. Sister-in-law Song’s cooking skills are really amazing, but her style is completely different from Zhang Chuner’s. She cooks everything

The dishes are simple but very delicious. The business of the small shop has been much better recently and it has finally slowed down."

Fatty Zhou Hua interrupted: "Shaobai, don't say this in front of Brother Li. The little money you gave is nothing compared to Brother Li's remuneration."

Hong Tianjiu nodded and said: "It's true, Brother Li makes more money than I, Hong Wan Gambling House, stop bragging."

Fan Shaobai glared at these two guys and said: "He is already a fourth-grade official, so he can't count."

Hong Tianjiu hummed: "Not to mention Brother Li, and that Zhang Chun'er, oh, and that Guda, you are just bragging anyway."

Fan Shaobai was unhappy, but he couldn't compete with Hong Tianjiu. In a fit of anger, he pushed out all the copper coins in front of him and said: "I am Stud. Xiaojiu. If you have the ability, just follow."

Hong Tianjiu laughed and said: "Shaobai, I am the young master of Hongwan Gambling House. You are playing in front of me. You really think you have too much money. I will follow you."

Chai Cong spread his hands and said: "How can such a thing happen without me and follow?" In fact, his cards are not big, but in his philosophy, losing money is okay, but he must not lose face.

Gao Yanei chuckled, covered the cards, and said shamelessly: "You guys, didn't you see that Li Qi's card turned out to be a straight flush? It's really stupid for you to play stud. I won't even play a straight."

Zhou Hua and Xu Fei also abandoned their cards one after another.

Huh? When did this guy become so shrewd? Li Qi glanced at Gao Yanei. Seeing his evil smile, he felt angry in his heart. This didn't trick him. What a failure. He said with a smile: "Since the Yanei are all

Having said that, I have no reason not to follow. Just stud.”

Hong Tianjiu secretly thought, "Oh no, it's bad." He was just focused on fighting with Fan Shaobai. He didn't expect that there was a hungry wolf sitting next to him. He rolled his eyes and said, "Brother, this is a personal grudge between me and Shao Bai. You can't do it."

Mixed in?"

Day. You think I'm stupid. I don't make money even if I have money. Li Qi said with a smile: "Xiaojiu, I only have money in my eyes. I can't see your grudges. Let's play the cards."

Hong Tianjiu failed with his first plan, so he tried another one and said to Fan Shaobai: "Shaobai, how about this? Let's duel in private. If mine is bigger, you can give me this part of the money. If it's yours,

How about I pay for you?"

Fan Shaobai looked at his card and saw two aces. He thought, could it be three aces? He shook his head and said, "This is against the rules. Besides, it's not Master Li, so he may not win."

Zhou Hua said angrily: "Shao Bai, you are also the young master of Fan Lou after all. You have no courage."

Fan Shaobai said: "Why don't you come."

Zhou Hua raised the corner of his mouth and said: "What I'm afraid of is Brother Li. If he folds, I will definitely follow him to the end. I have played cards with him for so long and I have never won."

If you say this, aren't you blocking my way to make money? Li Qi heard their nonsense and couldn't wait any longer. He directly turned over his trump card and said: "Flush, you fight for yours, I will take the money first."

"

Hong Tianjiu said unhappily: "Brother, please don't be so greedy for money. Shaobai and I haven't discussed it yet."

"You can continue now. I am helping you make room." Li Qi chuckled and took the money back first.

Gao Yanei said hey: "Let me just say it, Li Qi is very insidious, and so are you two. We are also the fourth young masters after all, and we should be consistent with the outside world. This guy always wins our money, and loses money."

Small, the face is big.”

Damn it! You can play like this. Li Qi said displeased: "Ya Nei, you are just playing tricks. Even if you want to join forces, you don't have to say it in front of me. It's too bullying."

Gao Yanei patted his chest and said: "I am an upright person, so how can I hurt people secretly? I am not a bird like Wang Xuanen."

Sweating! This can be called aboveboard, so I finally accepted it. Li Qi smiled and asked, "By the way, I haven't seen Wang Yanei for a long time."

Gao Yanei said: "I don't know what bad things that guy did. His father drove him to Henan Prefecture in Xijing, but I heard that he will be back soon. What? Are you and him very close?"

"I'm just asking casually." Li Qi shrugged and said to himself. It seems that Wang Fu really values ​​his precious son and is so cautious.

Hong Tianjiu waved his hand and said: "Why do you mention him? Hurry up and shuffle the cards."

Li Qi was slightly startled, seeing their different expressions, all of them showing secret expressions, and he was afraid and asked: "Can I withdraw?"

"cannot."

Everyone said in unison.

Li Qi saw their murderous looks and thought to himself, gamblers are crazy. He squeezed out a smile and said, "Then let's continue."

Li Qi distracted their attention while dealing cards, and said to Zhou Hua: "Fat man, how are the preparations at your silk shop?"

"Oh, by the way, my father asked me to ask you something, I almost forgot." Zhou Hua suddenly realized and said hurriedly: "Brother, my house is ready. I want to ask you whether the sale started before this year. Or the year before? back."

As early as a few days ago, the sewing machine had been successfully developed and was now put into use. This also greatly accelerated the production efficiency. But the old man Zhou was so happy that he was secretly glad that he had chosen to cooperate with Li Qi.

Fuck! You can forget about this, what's the use of living in this world. Li Qi was speechless to the fat man. Before he could speak, Gao Yanei and Hong Tianjiu said in unison: "Of course, the sooner. The better."

Li Qi was stunned and said: "Yamen, Xiaojiu, this has nothing to do with you, why are you so enthusiastic."

Gao Yanei retorted: "Who said it has nothing to do with me? You don't know, that underwear is so good, almost more effective than Bald Chicken Powder. A woman looks really good in it. It's a pity that Sanlang is so stingy. They only sold me eight sets. It’s not enough.”

Zhou Hua said depressedly: "Ya Nei, that's for you, okay? I don't want a penny from you."

Hong Tianjiu put his head together and said: "Brother, don't mention it. I also bought Sanlang and gave me eight sets, but my father snatched them all away and didn't even leave one set for me. I don't even know who I am." I don’t even know what it tastes like.”

Wow! I didn’t expect Brother Ba Jin to be such a heroic man. Li Qi was secretly surprised.

Gao Yanei chuckled and said, "Xiaojiu, that brother really feels sorry for you, but if I were your father, I would do the same thing."
