When Li Qi heard this, she asked, "How long will it take to go? I can prepare rations for you."

"I can't go as long as I want, just two or three days, but my baby will come with me."

"He's not an adult yet! How can he go with you when he's twelve or thirteen years old?" Li Qi immediately refused on Li Dan's behalf.

Li Baojing also said: "Your wife is right. He is different from you. You are young and powerful. If you encounter a jackal in the mountains, he will just follow you from a distance. He is a young man and can be easily bullied."

Then he said to Li Dan: "Little bastard, don't worry about it. As long as I am alive, I will still be in charge. If you can't get out, you can't get out."

Seeing Li Baojing's powerful momentum, Li Dandao muttered: "It's almost a peaceful time now."

"Taiping?" Li Baojing snorted: "You have never seen the massacre of the city."

"Don't look at the peace in Chang'an now. This is under the emperor's feet. The general has proclaimed himself emperor, but is it really peaceful?"

"Everyone in the world knows that if the Crown Prince and King Qin don't deal with them, chaos can break out at any time?"

"It doesn't matter what your father is. He is a doctor. If you capture him, you will treat wounded soldiers. If you are a young man, if you capture him, you will become a recruit. Since ancient times, 50% of recruits have died."

Li Dandao was startled and remembered the scene of the Anshi Rebellion after the prosperous Tang Dynasty written by Du Fu.

In Tou Shihao Village at dusk, there were officials arresting people at night. The old man walked over the wall, and the old woman went out to watch. Why are the officials so angry? What’s the trouble with the women’s cries! Listen to the woman’s speech before her: Three men are garrisoning Yecheng. One man is here with a letter, and the second man is starting a new battle.

Death. The surviving ones live in vain, the dead have long since passed away! There is no one in the house, only the grandson under the breast.

That is not only unique to the Qi phase of the late Tang Dynasty. Now that we have not reached the heyday of Zhenguan, it is actually equivalent to the end of the Sui Dynasty. Things like arrests will definitely happen. In the city, it is easy to say that the people are governed well, but in the mountains and fields, it is not the case.

That’s for sure.

Thinking of this, Li Dandao gave up. His own life was more important. He would wait a few years until his second brother came to power.

Li Dandao stopped talking, but how could Li Fucheng promote the business of Li's Pharmacy when he went out alone? How could he make money from the local boss? It is said that wealth can be gained through risk.

Li Qi also said to Li Fucheng: "You too, don't go far when you go to the countryside. Go get the road guide first and write it down, so you don't get caught for no reason."

Without a road guide, you are a refugee. In ancient times, everyone had a personal ID card. As for the fate of the refugees, it was very miserable. Feudal society only believed that farmers who stayed where they were and had land were good citizens. They paid taxes and served in a down-to-earth manner.

, any merchant is not a good citizen.

Li Fucheng understood this very well and had been out of the city many times before.

Li Fudou also said: "My nephew is better not to go out. It's not like he just wanders out of the city gate and works on the farm. He has to walk dozens of miles and sleep in the open air."

Li Dandao replied at this time: "I want to go. Our family still needs to make a fortune as soon as possible. But since Grandpa you said not to go to the country, then Dad should not go either. Since we can't spread out, we can only

We faced the difficulties and developed inwards!”

Where is it? Of course it's the capital circle, but the famous doctors there have already occupied the market, and it's not easy to carve out a bloody path.

Naturally, a quack like Li Fucheng has no chance. As for Li Dandao, it is still possible, but Li Dandao is very lazy.

Li Baojing was the first to agree: "Good man! Ambitious!"

Li Fucheng, on the other hand, is a coward and keeps a stable comfort zone: "How about forget it, I'd better go to the countryside for a walk."

Li Baojing agreed: "Your drug store is still half dead if you keep doing this! Cough! Spit!" He slapped the table so hard that it was shaking.

"I have no ambition at all. I can't study, I can't study, I can't practice martial arts, I can't cure diseases, I can't do business, I can't do business! It all depends on your little family subsidy from me. How many grains of rice do you have in your account?"

Li Fucheng was trained like a quail: "Where is your ambition?"

Li Dandao quickly patted the old man's back and said, "Grandpa, I made some cough medicine. You take two pills first to relieve the qi."

Li Baojing took the pill and stared at it twice: "What medicine did you use?"

"Fresh bamboo juice, paired with Sichuan clam and loquat paste." Li Dandao replied.

Only then did Li Baojing take it.

Then it was time to eat.

Poor Li Fucheng has no idea at all. He has spent many years in vain, but he is mediocre and confused. He also wants to be a good son, a good husband, a good brother, and a good father, but he can't put in the effort.

After dinner, Li Baojing called Li Fucheng into the room. He had just given him a lecture and had fallen in love with him. Now he wanted to appease him. The old man was a good housekeeper and knew how to make everything prosperous at home.

Li Dandao began to make snake whips and refine ghost-killing pills.

Yaya looked on from the side: "Brother! Are you making delicious food?"

"You can't eat this. If you eat it, you will become as thick as a cow and have hair on the soles of your feet." Li Dandao threatened.

He took out two chopsticks and stirred the maltose in the pot until it stuck to the chopsticks. He gave it to Yaya: "Take it and eat it."

Yaya took the candy and sucked it, it was so sweet that she laughed out loud.

Li Dandao gave another bunch to Li Qi, but Li Qi was worried: "Your father..."

Li Dandao comforted Li Qishi: "Mom, you have to believe me, dad. Our family is really lifeless. The so-called living within our means. We are a family of six. Grandpa can't work, uncle is studying, and Yaya is still young. The family's livelihood is all on dad."

, but dad is too comfortable."

Li Dan said: "Grandpa's little capital is spent a little less. Although our family still has farmland, it is left on the farm to be taken care of by others. We also have to pay taxes, make rations, and save seeds. There is no profit at all.

If the drug store continues to lose money every year, our family will really become more and more constrained."

Li Dandao added: "Uncle is practicing calligraphy now, so he has to save pen, ink and paper. He bought a collection of articles and raised money to buy it together. Even though he has eaten meat in the past two days, it is still a windfall, given by a rat.

"

Li Qishi said: "Your father is indeed not very motivated. When I was young, your grandfather picked me up. Your father was only ten years old. He asked him to study and he went fishing. When he asked him to practice martial arts, he had a stomachache. You

Grandpa beat him, but he didn't cry out in pain. He liked to be angry with your grandpa, and over time, your grandpa stopped caring about him."

"Later, your grandma gave birth to your uncle, and he disappeared, so your father grew up a little."

Li Dandao understood: "It turns out that dad is also spoiled! But didn't dad serve in the army?"

"He is a county official. He has been on the battlefield, trained for two years, and trained for a few days a year when he is not busy with farming. He has never been on the battlefield."

Li Qi is worthy of being a child bride and knows Li Fucheng very well. The main reason is that she is three years older than Li Fucheng, so she is almost like a sister than his wife. Therefore, Li Fucheng is afraid of his wife, but actually he respects Li Qi.

It was the first time that Li Dandao understood his father's life like this.
