Chapter 40: Invitations for Sale
Speaking of which, how can you still use Xiaofuzi to elaborate, who are the people present who are stupid?
Therefore, the old eunuch immediately said: "Father-in-law Fu, you can rest assured, as long as you hand over these five hundred invitations to the slaves, the servants will be offered 250,000 taels of silver at that time." ”
"I said Gonggong Li, I want to eat alone, but there is no such thing as you?" Some eunuchs objected.
Then, the eunuch looked at Xiao Fuzi again and said, "Father-in-law Fu, if you hand over the invitation to the slave, the slave will promise to give 300,000 taels of silver." ”
……
The eunuchs below were like sharks that smelled blood, and they scrambled to express their stance to Xiao Fuzi one by one.
"That's it! All right! Xiaofuzi was so annoyed by the noise that Dasheng stopped everyone and said, "You don't have to fight, everyone has a share in these invitations." And our family will also give you a great benefit. Among you, whoever sells at the highest price will be promoted in front of the Lord of Long Live who is the admiral eunuch of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, and our family will do what it says! ”
Seeing Xiao Fuzi say this, everyone's eyes suddenly opened round, as if they had seen a hungry wolf with fat meat.
"Our family will give you three days, and after three days, our family is waiting for your good news!" After speaking, Xiao Fuzi got up and walked out of the Imperial Horse Prison without looking back......
In a restaurant on Yong'an Street, a person with a bright appearance but a subordinated appearance walked into a private room.
If you are a resident of Beijing, you know this person nine times out of ten.
Although this person is not a big person, he is not a small person.
This person is Lin Er, the chief housekeeper of Ningguo Mansion.
It is said that the prime minister's door is a seven-grade official, and Sun Ding'an, the prince of Ningguo, is a super-grade national prince, and he controls most of the military power of the Great Zhou Dynasty with one hand, how can he be compared with the prime minister.
Therefore, Lin Er, the chief housekeeper of Ning Guofu, naturally followed the tide.
As soon as he entered the box on the second floor, Lin Er got straight to the point and said, "Gonggong Li, I don't know why you called me to come?" ”
In the tone, there is no coldness.
Also, Gonggong Li is just an old eunuch who is responsible for taking care of the imperial shop. How could Lin Er put him in his eyes?
What's more, if it weren't for Ning Guofu's frequent purchase of some things in the imperial store, Lin Er wouldn't even come.
In this regard, Gonggong Li has long been accustomed to it, and said without a pestle: "Our family has a benefit to give to Steward Lin, but I don't know if Steward Lin wants it?" ”
"What's the benefit?" Hearing this, Lin Er's eyes couldn't help but narrow.
"You can see it at a glance!" As he spoke, Gonggong Li took out an invitation card from his arms.
"That's it?" Lin Er just glanced at it, and didn't even pick it up, "My grandfather already has an invitation in his hand, so I won't bother you with it." ”
"If there is nothing else, I will retire first!" As he spoke, Lin Er wanted to get up.
Finally caught a big fish, how could Lin Er let it go so easily?
couldn't help but say, Gonggong Li grabbed Lin Er's arm, helped him to the seat again, and said, "Steward Lin, don't be in a hurry to leave, listen to our family first, it's not too late to leave!" ”
"Then I'm going to listen to what Gonggong Li has to say!" Seeing that he couldn't get away for a while, Lin Er fortunately sat back again.
Gonggong Li smiled and said, "Presumably, in the Ningguo Mansion, only Grandpa Guo has an invitation!" ”
"Why does Gonggong Li need to ask knowingly? The meaning of the palace is that only officials above the fourth rank can receive invitations, so why should Gonggong Li ask more? ”
"But this invitation in our family's hand, people without official positions can take it, and they can also participate in the Kitchen God Contest a few days later!"
"Oh?" Seeing Gonggong Li say this, Lin Er picked up the invitation on the table and looked at it carefully.
"This invitation, is it real?" Looking at the invitation on the table that was exactly the same as that of Ningguo Gongsun Ding'an, Lin Er was surprised.
"Of course it's true!" Gonggong Li smiled: "This is given by our father-in-law Fu himself, so can it be fake?" ”
"You're saying that this invitation is from the hands of the Imperial Horse Supervisor Seal Fu Gonggong?" Lin Er was taken aback and asked.
"Even if you borrow a few guts from our family, our family will not dare to deceive Steward Lin!"
Gonggong Li still had a smile on his face, and said: "To be honest, our family still has several such invitations in hand, as long as Steward Lin can afford the price, the quantity is not a problem!" ”
"This ...... Let me think about it! Regarding Gonggong Li's words, Lin Er was still skeptical.
Seeing this, Gonggong Li said: "Gonggong Fu said that these invitations are only sold to the children of the nobles in Beijing, and the rest of the people are waiting, no matter how much they pay, our family will not sell them." ”
"Just now, the shopkeeper Zhao of Longqingtang paid a high price to buy the invitation in our hand, but our family didn't sell it."
"Steward Lin, think about it carefully, if the second master, the third master, and a few young masters of Ning Guofu entered the longan of the Long Live Lord in the days of the Kitchen God Competition, it would not be able to be bought with any amount of silver!"
Speaking of this, Lin Er was finally moved, looked at Gonggong Li and said, "I can make the decision to buy a few, but I don't know the price of this invitation?" ……”
Gonggong Li said with a smile: "Steward Lin, don't worry, our family will not give you a random price, a fixed price, how about eight hundred taels of silver?" ”
"So expensive?" Seeing that an invitation actually cost eight hundred taels a piece, Lin Er's eyes widened at that time.
Gonggong Li still smiled and said: "Steward Lin, don't make a fuss first, why don't you go back to the house and discuss with a few masters in your mansion first, and then come to our house after deciding." Don't worry, we promise to leave you a few. ”
"But!" As soon as the words changed, Gonggong Li continued: "But after two days, I'm afraid that there won't be a few left, so Steward Lin should make a decision quickly!" ”
"Of course!" Lin Er got up, hugged his fists at Gonggong Li and said, "Gonggong Li, don't worry, I will give you an exact reply tomorrow." ”
"Steward Lin walks slowly!" Sending Lin Er out of the restaurant, Gonggong Li turned around and returned to the box on the second floor, before he breathed a sigh of relief.
Half an hour later, a middle-aged man dressed in a cyan costume and wearing a staff hat walked in.
"Gong Li's public security is good!" As soon as he entered the house, the middle-aged man said hello.
When Gonggong Li saw someone coming in, he got up and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Shopkeeper Feng, please take a seat!" ”
"I don't know what Gonggong Li is looking for here?" As soon as he sat down, Shopkeeper Feng asked.
"I don't know if Shopkeeper Feng has seen this?" Pointing to the invitation card on the table, Gonggong Li asked.
"This ...... This is an invitation to the Chef Competition? Shopkeeper Feng picked up the invitation and took a closer look, then looked at Gonggong Li and asked suspiciously.
"Shopkeeper Feng's good eyesight!" Gonggong Li praised and said, "I wonder if Shopkeeper Feng is interested in participating in this Chef God Competition?" ”
Shopkeeper Feng smiled bitterly and said, "Gonggong Li made fun of him, how can he be qualified to participate?" ”
"With this invitation, Shopkeeper Feng is qualified to participate!" Gonggong Li picked up the invitation, shook it in front of Shopkeeper Feng, and said with a smile.
"What does Gonggong Li mean by this?" Shopkeeper Feng asked.
"......" recounted the matter again, and Gonggong Li asked, "How is it?" Shopkeeper Feng, are you interested in asking for one? ”
Shopkeeper Feng asked: "I really want a copy in the next place, not to mention anything else, even if I can have a dragon face, I have no regrets in this life, but I don't know the price of this invitation?" ”
Gonggong Li smiled and said: "Shopkeeper Feng, don't worry, our family doesn't ask you more, only three thousand taels of silver!" ”
