Chapter 43: The King Gets Rich

"A chair dares to sell for ten taels of silver, it's really a black heart!"

In this happy atmosphere, there was suddenly such a discordant voice, and everyone could hear it clearly.

"Who said that?"

"I don't know, but that's right, this chair is a bit expensive."

"This chair is really good, the wood is good, the workmanship is good, and it doesn't hurt to be more expensive!"

"Then why don't you buy one?"

"I can't afford it!"

……

One sentence stirred up a thousand waves, Chen Zheng frowned, and hurried to find the person who spoke.

Yue Xiaorong pointed next to Chen Zheng and said, "Xianggong, that's what that person said." ”

Chen Zheng looked in the direction pointed by Yue Xiaorong and found a middle-aged man standing there.

The man was very thin and short, and looked at the armchair in front of him, and his face was full of disdain, surprise, anger, and jealousy.

Well, in fact, he just didn't look very good, and the rest of the descriptions were made up by Chen Zheng himself.

"What did you just say?" Chen Zheng asked directly.

The man was obviously startled and stammered, "No... Didn't say anything! ”

A young student next to him stepped forward and said, "My master said that your chair is too expensive, how can you drop it?" ”

After hearing this, the middle-aged man's expression was as if he had eaten a fly, and he glared at the young descendant, then cleared his throat and said, "Yes... Oh, yes. This chair is ten taels of silver a piece, no... Isn't it expensive? ”

Well, when you listen to this tone, you know that you are here to find fault.

Chen Zheng didn't bother to explain, and asked, "Dare to ask the name of the high surname." ”

The middle-aged man snorted lightly and did not speak, he did not want to reveal his identity.

"My master is the shopkeeper of the carpenter shop of the Wang family in the south of the city, Wang Facai, known as the master of the king of the south of the city!" The next poster rushed to say again.

Wang Facai flicked his sleeves and reprimanded: "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a dumb person!" ”

The only way to go back is to retreat.

"You're the carpenter of the King of the South of the City?" Chen Zheng asked, seemingly surprised.

Wang Facai coughed lightly twice and said, "Yes, it's down, but I like others to call me Master Wang." ”

"Oh, I'm sorry, Master Wang." Chen Zheng changed his words.

Wang Facai snorted twice, did not speak, and then glared at the descendant beside him twice to prevent him from answering.

"Speaking of which, I also want to thank Master Wang." Chen Zheng said suddenly.

Wang Facai was a little stunned and asked, "Why do you thank me?" ”

"Some time ago, did you ask you to make a book case for the government office?" Chen Zheng asked.

Wang Facai nodded and said, "Yes, but I broke my arm when I went out that day, and I didn't make it." ”

"Yes, I can testify!" Hou Sheng grabbed and said, "Later, the tolerance also came to borrow tools, I was afraid that it would affect the master's rest, so I still gave it to the tolerance." ”

Wang Facai pulled his junior apprentice behind him and asked, "What does this have to do with you?" ”

Chen Zheng smiled slightly and said, "When I first arrived in Dongyang County that day, because Master Wang was injured, the task of writing the case was handed over to me. ”

"And my tools?" Wang Facai asked.

Chen Zheng nodded and said, "Yes, it was the eldest brother who was entrusted to borrow it." With Master Wang's tools, I made a book case for the government office and won the favor of the county magistrate. ”

Wang Facai clenched his teeth, his temples protruded, and he hated: "That was originally my chance!" ”

"Yes, later, the county magistrate gave the next big order." Chen Zheng continued.

"What order?" Wang Facai asked involuntarily.

Chen Zheng deliberately lowered his voice and said, "The damaged and old instruments and torture instruments in the government office are all handed over to me for new ones, which is a lot of silver." ”

Wang Facai became even more angry when he heard this, he thought that it should be his silver!

"Also, look at the signboard and couplets of my carpentry workshop, which are inscribed by the county magistrate himself." Chen Zheng continued.

Wang Facai became more and more depressed, and he stood there trembling with anger.

Chen Zheng chuckled lightly and said, "So, I want to thank Master Wang well." ”

"You're welcome!" Wang Facai gritted his teeth and squeezed out these words from between his teeth.

Chen Zheng waved his hand and said, "That's not good, I must be grateful to feel at ease." ”

"It's useless to talk about it." Wang Facai snorted.

Chen Zheng rolled his eyes and said: "Today's market opening is a big reward, others buy it at an eighty-fifty discount, and if Master Wang buys it, it will be discounted by eighty." ”

Wang Facai was stunned, is this a gratitude?

Wang Facai's apprentice next to him said: "In this way, this chair only needs eight taels." ”

"I know, you say!" Wang Facai shouted.

Even if it's eight taels, he can't afford it; Even if he could afford it, he wouldn't dare to buy it!

If Wang Facai dares to spend eight taels of silver to buy a chair, it is estimated that he will be driven out of the bedroom by the tigress in the family for ten days!

Ten days away from the bedroom is a good thing, but the tigress at home still has a lot of torture methods.

Thinking of this, Wang Facai shuddered.

This Chen Zheng is young, and he is also a talent, but he didn't expect his heart to be so vicious, it is simply invisible.

Wang Facai snorted coldly and said, "Master Chen's kindness is appreciated in my heart." However, he is also a carpenter, so how can he need a chair made by someone else? ”

Chen Zheng made a look of sudden realization, patted his head and said: "It's negligent, but my carpentry workshop doesn't just have chairs, but also other things, and the 20% discount for Master Wang is still valid on other things!" ”

When Wang Facai's apprentice heard this, he hurried to look elsewhere, and after a while, he stopped in front of a dresser.

"Master, this dresser is so beautiful, she must be happy to buy it for the master!" The apprentice shouted.

Wang Facai raised his eyes and looked over, only to see that the dresser was symmetrical on the left and right, with a mirror installed in the middle, drawers on the left and right, and a luo pot on the lower structure, which seemed to be extraordinarily large.

It is indeed a good dresser, and take a look at the price card hanging next to it.

My God, thirty taels!

Thirty taels, a twenty-percent discount, that's also twenty-four taels!

Ten taels of chairs, Wang Facai didn't dare to buy them, how could he dare to buy a dresser of twenty-four taels?

His apprentice came to Wang Facai's side and said in a low voice: "Master, if you buy that chair, you can save two taels; If you buy this dresser, you can save six taels, which is really cost-effective! ”

Although his voice was small, Chen Zheng could still hear his words clearly.

Chen Zheng was a little suspicious, was this Wang Facai's apprentice also invited by him Meng Chujiu?

After Wang Facai heard this, he slapped it and scolded: "Servant, is your master a greedy person?" ”

The apprentice was stunned, and blurted out, "Isn't it?" ”

Wang Facai felt a little embarrassed, and pushed his apprentice to leave Chen Zheng's carpentry workshop.

When he arrived at the door, Wang Facai suddenly remembered that it was his apprentice who poured water at the door that day, and he slipped and broke his arm.

Thinking of this, Wang Facai didn't come out of his anger and kicked the apprentice's buttocks.

Then the latter was kicked suddenly, and a dog ate directly and lay on the ground.

When the people in the carpentry workshop saw this, they laughed one by one, and they were full of cheerful atmosphere.
