Chapter Twenty-Nine: How Big an Official
The price is ......
All three of them opened their mouths wide in surprise!
"How much do you say?"
"A million Kaiyuan Tongbao?" Li Zhi was the first to come back to his senses: "Shopkeeper, don't think that our grade is so foolish!" Just your restaurant, can it be worth a million? ”
"Little Master...... You can go to other places and ask to see how much my restaurant is worth! ”
"That's too expensive, isn't it?"
Luo Tong dragged Li Zhi: "Your Highness, we are less than 10,000 yuan, which is too much ......." ”
"Ahem...... Steady! Li Zhi coughed lightly a few times, raised his head and said: "The shopkeeper, the business is all negotiated, how can there be a fixed price?" ”
"What the little young master is talking about, I don't know how much money the little master is going to pay?"
"Eight thousand!" Li Zhi is out of the way, whether it succeeds or not, first put the price on the bright side. Based on this price, it will slowly rise, and then find a way to make up the missing part.
"Poof......." Luo Tong squirted a sip of tea.
"Cure my brother's ......." Li Lizhen also felt extremely embarrassed!
People ask for 1 million, and you bargain for 8,000?
That's too big a gap!
"It seems that this business is not negotiable...... A few young masters, please! The shopkeeper's face twitched a few times, and he directly ordered the eviction.
"Don't, let's talk again?"
"Want to use 8,000 yuan to buy my million-dollar restaurant? What's the difference between this and a robbery? I know you're from the palace, right? Then I won't give up the restaurant! ”
……
The words are clear.
The shopkeeper is no longer polite.
called a few subordinates and blasted Li Zhi and the three of them out.
"Broken shop, I'll never come again...... Li Li scolded and scolded.
"Brother Zhi, let's go back to the palace!"
"Master, master......." At this time, Cheng Chubi ran from the front: "Master, you called me?" ”
"Hmm!" Li Zhi pulled him and asked, "Look at this restaurant, if you want to buy it, how much does it cost?" ”
"Tianyi Restaurant?"
"Yes!"
"This ...... It's about four or five hundred thousand. Tianyi Restaurant is the most luxurious restaurant in Chang'an City, and the location where he is located is also the most prosperous place. No matter day or night, the flow of people is very large, and the business is extremely hot! ”
Hiss!
Li Zhi took a sharp breath: "It seems that that kid didn't lie to us, this restaurant is really worth hundreds of thousands of ......." ”
Luo Daodao: "The shopkeeper said that it was millions!" ”
"People shout millions, give us room to bargain, there's nothing wrong with that! It's just a few hundred thousand Kaiyuan Tongbao, which is also a huge number, and we can't afford it! ”
"Alas!"
Li Zhi was ready to give up.
In his original plan, he negotiated a price with the restaurant owner, and then went back to the palace to steal a holy decree, and found Cheng Yanjin as a middleman, which would definitely reduce the price to the lowest!
Eight thousand dollars as a down payment, settled in multiple installments.
Not a big problem!
Now it seems that the difference is too far!
"Master, do you want to buy this restaurant?" Cheng asked.
"yes!"
Cheng Chubi ran a few steps quickly and caught up with Li Zhi: "Master, don't worry, I have a way...... Maybe if you don't spend a penny, you can get a restaurant for nothing! ”
"Haha...... You kid, what about talking in your sleep, right? ”
"Really, really!"
Cheng Chubi approached Li Zhi and whispered: "The master doesn't know, the shopkeeper of Tianyi Restaurant is not really the shopkeeper, as far as I know, he has a backstage boss!" And it's an official of the DPRK and China! ”
"Oh?"
"What's going on?" Li Zhi came to be interested.
The imperial court has a clear rule that officials are not allowed to engage in business!
If it's really like what Cheng Chubi said, things will be easy to do!
……
Cheng Chubi said: "Master should have heard that I have a strict curfew. Every night, the people are not allowed to go out, and all the shops are not allowed to open. However, it does not include the eastern and western cities. ”
"Tianyi Restaurant, located between the east and west cities, was supposed to be subject to a curfew. But, for many years, he has never closed the door! ”
"Everyone says that the restaurant has a backstage!"
Li Zhi knows something about the curfew!
From the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, there was a curfew. In order to strictly manage the people in the city and reduce the occurrence of theft, robbery, and other cases.
In the Tang Dynasty, the role of curfew was brought into full play.
Once someone is found to have violated it, it will definitely be punished severely!
"Humph!"
Li Zhi said: "I don't care who is behind him, dare to ignore the curfew, I told him to walk around without eating!" ”
"Dealing with the ...... Who is in charge of the curfew? ”
"Wuhou Pu, bad people, the sixteen guards of the South Ya and the six armies of the North Ya!" Cheng Chubi blurted out.
"You say more detail!"
Li Zhi came to the teahouse on the side of the road and sat down: "You all sit, wait for me to figure out what the curfew is about, and then go back to clean up the Tianyi Restaurant!" ”
"Hey......." Li Lizhi said excitedly: "Wait a minute, I'm going to beat the shopkeeper!" ”
"Princess, no one provoked you, why did you beat him?"
"Who told him to give me such an unpalatable meal, I didn't eat a bite, and I'm still hungry!" Li Lizhi touched her shriveled stomach.
"Don't interrupt! You keep talking! Li Zhi gestured.
"Master...... The Wuhou Pu, the bad guys, the sixteen guards of the South Ya and the six armies of the North Ya that I just talked about are the four departments responsible for the security of Chang'an City. Among them, Wuhou shops can be seen everywhere, almost every city gate has them, ranging from 20 to 100 people, usually patrolling, arresting, and searching. ”
"What about the bad guys?" Li Zhi asked.
For the title of these three words, Li Zhi has seen it in later generations, and he is very impressed! Because there is a TV series, it's called a bad guy, and it's a super bull!
Cheng Chubi said: "The status of bad people is the lowest. At first, Wuhoupu was responsible for the security of Chang'an City, but there were more than a million people in the city, and they couldn't take care of it at all. So the gangsters in the city were all assembled, and a new department was set up, called the bad guys, to assist in the management of Wuhou Shop! ”
"Huh?"
Hearing this explanation, Li Zhi was dumbfounded.
This is the bad guy?
In his impression, it was similar to the existence of the Ming Dynasty Jinyiwei. Unexpectedly, it was a garbage department composed of some thugs.
"What about the Sixteen Guards of the Southern Ya and the Sixth Army of the Northern Ya?"
"The sixteen guards of the Southern Ya have more than 3,000 people, of which the twelve guards are respectively in command of the soldiers of the world! The other four guards are responsible for the gates of Chang'an, as well as the honor guards for the emperor's travel! ”
"As for the Sixth Army of the Northern Ya, it's a big deal!"
"They are the left and right Yulin Army, the left and right Dragon Martial Army, and the left and right Shenwu Army, all of which are the emperor's personal guard troops!"
……
"The Sixteen Guards of the Southern Ya and the Sixth Army of the Northern Ya also often sent people to patrol and strictly manage the security in the city. Once someone is found to have violated the curfew, it will be handed over to Wuhou Pu for severe punishment! ”
Li Zhi took a deep breath after hearing this: "According to what you say, the backstage boss of a restaurant on this day is not even afraid of the Sixth Army of the Northern Ya?" What a big official is this? ”
