Chapter 351: An egg is a few taels of silver
Zhou Ningfu hurriedly took the bench and put it behind Zhengrong, who sat down unceremoniously. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Emperor Jing Xiao then asked, "I heard that you built a mansion for the six doors?" ”
Zheng Rong thought that there was nothing in the capital that could hide from Emperor Jingxiao, so she had no choice but to nod, "I went to the six gates and found that it was really simple, and the daily food of the six gates was two nests. Thinking that they had to do things for the court, and besides, I was one of them, helped them. ”
Emperor Jing Xiao raised his eyebrows, looked at Zheng Rong, and couldn't see joy or anger in his expression, and asked, "You blame me for saying this, and the welfare you give you is not good?" ”
Zheng Rong secretly complained in her heart, strange people often say that accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, and the emperor is still kind to her, why does this mean now?
"Wechen doesn't dare."
Emperor Jing Xiao raised his eyebrows again, "Don't dare?" Doesn't that mean that? ”
If this is in your own home, you are going to flip the table, why is it so difficult to serve! But Emperor Jing Xiao is the only person she can't offend in the entire Great Xia Dynasty, although she still has a gold medal in her arms, she can't die at will.
Zheng Rong pondered his words in his heart, "Your Majesty, you are in charge of the entire Great Xia Dynasty, and there are all kinds of opportunities, and it is inevitable that there will be places that you can't take care of, aren't I sharing your worries for you?" ”
Emperor Jing Xiao laughed, he naturally wouldn't blame Zheng Rong for this, if he blamed Zheng Rong, probably no one would be as nosy as him in the future.
"Tell me, what task did you receive today?"
Zheng Rong listened to Emperor Jingxiao's questions in the east and west, and was a little confused, and he didn't understand what he meant? But he still replied according to his words, "Back to the emperor, today's minister's task is a first-class and second-class task, to catch a flower thief." ”
"Flower thief?" Emperor Jing Xiao asked rhetorically, he didn't expect that this kind of thing would happen in Beijing, and there were thieves picking flowers at his feet, which was really bold.
However, since it is a first-class task, it seems that the difficulty coefficient is not low, so he asked again, "Can you complete this task alone?" ”
Zheng Rong is now like a dozing person, and someone will bring him a pillow soon. Originally, I was thinking of relying on Song Zizhou to deliver a message to the emperor. Now that the emperor has asked herself, then she has to talk to the emperor and say, "Naturally, it is not enough, we will work together to complete this task, and this task will cost half of our six doors." ”
Emperor Jing Xiao was also surprised when he heard this, he didn't expect that there were only six people in the six doors of the hall.
"Why are there only so many people in six doors?!"
Zheng Rong rolled his eyes silently in his heart, but he still explained to Emperor Jing Xiao respectfully, "Your Majesty, the task of the six doors is heavy, the requirements for kung fu are very high, and the moon is very small, but anyone with such a high level of martial arts probably can't look down on this money." ”
Emperor Jing Xiao really didn't know how much the six doors paid each month, so he asked, "How many silver taels do you receive every month?!" ”
"Two taels of silver a month." Zheng Rong replied.
It stands to reason that two taels of silver is actually not too little, and if you spend it more frugally, it will be enough for the family to use it for half a year.
It's just that Zhengrong has to go out often when they go out on tasks, not only to eat and live outside, but also to prepare their own horses, and these are all not reimbursed, so that the two taels of silver will not last long.
Emperor Jingxiao has been in the palace for a long time, and he doesn't know much about the prices outside the city, and when he heard that there were only two taels of silver, he frowned and asked Zhengrong, "How much does an egg cost in Beijing now?" ”
Zheng Rong knew that Emperor Jing Xiao asked this question to understand the prices in Beijing to judge whether their monthly income was high or low. However, Emperor Jing Xiao really asked the wrong person, Zheng Rong is treated like a young master at home, where can he buy eggs.
Emperor Jing Xiao looked at Zheng Rong's stunned expression, and knew that he probably asked the wrong person.
Zheng Rong thought about it for a while, and remembered that when she was in Shenma Village, Zijing led her to the market and used to buy some eggs, but it was in the countryside, and the price of coming to Beijing was more expensive.
She thought about it for a while, and decided to tell Emperor Jing Xiao, "Your Majesty, I used to go with my cousin to buy eggs when I was in the countryside, it was in the countryside, and I thought that eggs would be cheaper, at that time it was two pennies a piece, and it should be more expensive in Beijing." ”
When Emperor Jing Xiao heard this, his eyes widened, as if he had heard something unbelievable, and he was immediately furious, and shouted at Zhou Ningfu, "You go and call me for the money from the purchasing department!" ”
Zhou Ningfu was excited, and hurriedly trotted out of the main hall.
Zheng Rong had read some records about eunuchs deceiving the emperor in modern times, and she still thought that those things were only done by faint monarchs, but she didn't expect that Emperor Jingxiao was also blinded. However, since the emperor didn't ask her about this, she didn't plan to participate in it.
When Qian Youjia saw that Manager Zhou visited in person, he hurriedly put down the work in his hand and greeted him, "Oops! Father-in-law Zhou, what kind of wind blew you here?
Zhou Ningfu thought of Emperor Jing Xiao's anger, and knew that his money Youjia would not be good this time. Therefore, he didn't give him a good look, and snorted coldly, "Who else, of course the emperor wants to see you!" ”
Qian Youjia is indeed a fat shortage in the purchasing division, and his whole person is also raised with fat heads and big ears. Looking at Zhou Ningfu's expression, he knew that the emperor was looking for him without any good things, his eyes rolled, he took off the rosewood bracelet he was wearing on his wrist, and stuffed it into Zhou Ningfu's hand, "What is the emperor looking for?" I wonder if Father-in-law Zhou can give me some advice? ”
Zhou Jingfu knew that the emperor was angry with him, so how could he accept his things?!
As soon as he turned around, he dodged his hand and took two steps forward, "You better follow me to see the emperor as soon as possible, don't make the emperor wait for a long time." ”
The eunuchs are greedy for money, so they almost never say that they can't give you money, but if they really give money, no one wants it, and the eight achievements are a big deal.
Thinking about it like this, Qian Youjia chuckled in his heart, even in the cold winter wax moon, the vest was covered with a layer of cold sweat, and he followed Zhou Ningfu in the direction of Qianqing Palace uneasily.
When I entered the main hall of the Qianqing Palace, I found that there was a young boy sitting in the hall, who was very handsome.
It's just that Qian Youjia doesn't have the heart to look at Zhengrong too much now, and bows to Emperor Jingxiao, "The slave asks the emperor for peace." ”
Emperor Jing Xiao snorted, but did not call out, Qian Youjia knelt on the ground in confusion, a little at a loss.
However, Emperor Jing Xiao didn't dry him for long, so he asked him, "Qian Youjia, you tell me, how many taels of silver does it cost to buy an egg in our palace?" (To be continued.) )
