Chapter 164: Three Brands

Hearing Gao Ming say that these brands were passes, Lu Zhizhi suddenly nodded with some realization.

"Oh, I understand, what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said, is it the Tang Imperial Club on Suzaku Street?"

Hearing Lu Zhi's words, Gao Ming immediately smiled and nodded.

"I didn't expect Lord Lu to hear about this, yes, that club was built by me."

Speaking of this, Gao Ming suddenly let out a long sigh.

"Alas, our royal family is different from ordinary people, and there are few times when brothers and sisters get together, so I established the Datang Royal Club, and the reason why these brands were made is to prevent outsiders from disturbing them."

Hearing Gao Ming say this, Lu Zhi also nodded.

"Well, is this the case, or His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has thought it through, but since it is a place where the princes and princesses gather, why do you have to make it into three materials?"

As soon as Lu Zhi's words fell, Gao Ming burst out laughing.

"Hahahaha, Lord Lu's question can be said to be to the point, so I'll explain it to you."

As he spoke, Gao Ming picked up a gold sign and shook it in front of Lu Zhi.

"Lord Lu, you see, this gold brand has the Datang Royal Club written on the front, and the back is tattooed with a dragon and phoenix pattern, which means that this kind of brand is exclusive to our royal family, and the person who owns this kind of brand is a lifelong member of the Datang Royal Club, and can enjoy all the things in the club for free."

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Lu Zhi immediately nodded.

"As it should be!"

In Lu Zhi's opinion, since that place is called the "Tang Royal Club", it is naturally for the royal family, and it is normal for the prince and princess to enjoy privileges.

Seeing Lu Zhi nodding, Gao Ming smiled slightly, and then took out a silver brand from the box.

"Lord Lu, look at it again, although this silver brand also says Datang Royal Club on the front, but its back is engraved with a tiger and a crane, this kind of brand represents the Wenchen and military generals who have contributed to my Datang, they are naturally qualified to enter the Datang Royal Club, and they can also enjoy a 50% discount on the Datang Royal Club!"

When Lu Zhi heard this, he immediately blinked.

"What is a 50% discount?"

Looking at Lu Zhi, who looked puzzled, Gao Ming suddenly smacked his lips, and then smiled at him.

"This 50% discount means that if the things in the clubhouse are sold for ten yuan, then those who own the silver brand can buy them for five yuan!"

As soon as Gao Ming's words fell, Lu Zhi's eyes suddenly lit up.

"It's so good, so how can you get this silver brand?"

Hearing Lu Zhi's words, Gao Ming immediately burst out laughing.

"Hahahaha, Lord Lu, as the head of the household, is naturally the real pillar of my Tang Dynasty, so please accept this brand!"

As he spoke, Gao Ming handed the silver brand in his hand to Lu Zhi, seeing this scene, Lu Zhi's face suddenly showed a flattered look, and he quickly stretched out his hands and respectfully took the brand into his hand.

"Thank you His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for your love, Weichen is ashamed to be ashamed!"

Hearing his words, Gao Ming suddenly smiled even more happily.

"Lord Lu is modest, don't stand, please take a seat!"

"Your Highness!"

Lu Zhi sat down happily while putting the silver brand into his sleeve, and when he saw him sit down, Gao Ming smiled and nodded.

"The silver brand is a reward, so its time limit is only ten years, for example, if after ten years, Lord Lu, you return to your hometown and no longer work for Datang, then I will take back this brand."

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Lu Zhi immediately laughed.

"Haha, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said with a smile, Weichen has just passed the age of confusion, and he must be able to serve Datang for twenty or thirty years, and he will never return to his hometown so early."

After speaking, Lu Zhi also gave Gao Ming a meaningful smile, and Gao Ming immediately understood what he meant, so he also smiled at him.

"If this can be the case, it will really be a blessing for the Tang Dynasty."

Speaking of this, Gao Ming took out a copper sign from the box again.

"Lord Lu, look at this last kind of copper brand, the front of this kind of brand says Datang Royal Club, and the back is engraved with a horse, with which you can also enter the club, and you can also enjoy a nine-percent discount, but the effect is only one year, and its back has been engraved."

As he spoke, Gao Ming handed the bronze sign in his hand to Lu Zhi, and Lu Zhi took it and took a look, and sure enough, he found that a line of boys was engraved at the bottom of the sign - "Valid until the eighteenth year of Zhenguan".

Seeing this, Lu Zhi blinked suddenly, and hurriedly took out his own brand from his sleeve to take a look, and immediately found that this silver brand was also engraved with a line of children - "Valid until the twenty-eighth year of Zhenguan".

As the saying goes, "If you are not afraid of not knowing the goods, you are afraid of comparing the goods", seeing that the validity period of his silver brand is ten times that of the copper brand, the smile on Lu Zhi's face suddenly became brighter.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, I wonder who these bronze medals will be given to?"

Hearing Lu Zhi's question, Gao Ming immediately laughed.

"Lord Lu, don't look at this bronze medal for only one year, but not everyone can get it, it must be in my Datang official term for more than ten years, and there is no bad record, in order to be eligible for such a brand."

As soon as Gao Ming's words fell, Lu Zhi sighed with emotion.

"Hey, it seems that it is not easy to get such a bronze medal."

Seeing Lu Zhi's somewhat embarrassed look, Gao Ming suddenly shook his head again.

"Actually, it's not non-negotiable, as long as there is no bad deed, if the official tenure is insufficient, you can make up for it with money, and make up for it a hundred times a year, as long as you can make up for the money, you can also get this brand, Lord Lu, what do you think of my approach?"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Lu Zhi's eyes suddenly widened, and then he gasped.

"Shhh...... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince means that if it is a new official, then it will take a thousand times to get such a bronze medal? ”

Looking at Lu Zhi's surprised look, Gao Ming immediately frowned.

"Does Lord Lu think it's expensive?"

"Of course ......"

Lu Zhi originally planned to say that it was expensive, but when he saw Gao Ming frowning, his voice immediately changed.

"Of course it's not expensive, if you can enter the Tang Royal Club, what is a mere 1,000 yuan?"

Lu Zhigang was actually a little disobedient when he said this, but when he remembered that he still had a silver brand, he suddenly felt that he was not disobedient at all.

The bronze medal of the actual year is worth a thousand yuan, so isn't the silver medal of ten years on his body worth 10,000 yuan?

The most important thing is that Gao Ming said just now that the copper brand can enjoy a nine-percent discount, while his silver brand can enjoy a five-percent discount, and this alone cannot be measured by money.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhi immediately nodded to Gao Ming solemnly.

"Wechen thinks that His Royal Highness the Prince's move is very appropriate, and Wechen suggests that special attention be paid to those who hold bronze medals, and once they are found to have lent or bought and sold brands, they will be immediately disqualified from entering the club!"

Hearing Lu Zhi's suggestion, Gao Ming immediately nodded.

"Well, Lord Lu's words are reasonable, so do as you say!"

Seeing that Gao Ming agreed with his opinion, Lu Zhi immediately smiled and arched his hand towards Gao Ming.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, if there is nothing else to do, then Weichen will retire first."

Seeing that Lu Zhi was leaving, Gao Ming hurriedly stopped him.

"Lord Lu, don't leave yet, why don't you go to Shang Pharmacy first, see what is hurt, and heal it as soon as possible."

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Lu Zhi immediately burst out laughing.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is too worried, how can a mere tiger hurt me? Wechen took his leave. ”

Seeing Lu Zhi putting on such a bold style, Gao Ming didn't say much, so he could only hold back a smile and arch his hand towards him.

"Then Lord Lu, go slowly!"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, please stay."

Lu Zhi arched his hand towards Gao Ming again, and walked outside with his head held high, looking at his back as he gradually moved away, Gao Ming suddenly shook his head with some laughter.

"If I hadn't seen you being pinned to the ground by Benben, I would have almost believed you."

Seeing Lu Zhi leave so happily, Gao Ming also breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise this matter would be a troublesome matter if it was about to be investigated.

But this incident also gave Gao Ming a wake-up call, and after he went back, he immediately warned Li Mingda, asking her not to take the tiger out of the backyard in the future, so as not to scare others again, Li Mingda just pouted, and I don't know if she listened.

For this eccentric sister, Gao Ming couldn't bear to restrain her too much, so he only said it once and didn't say more, and then went to Li Shimin with the box full of brands.

When Li Shimin saw these signs, he also showed a puzzled face, so Gao Ming told Li Shimin what he had said to Lu Zhi before, and after listening to Gao Ming's explanation, Li Shimin's eyes immediately lit up.

"This gold brand aside, this silver brand can win people's hearts."

Seeing that Li Shimin broke the function of the silver brand, Gao Ming immediately gave him a thumbs up.

"The old man deserves to be an old man, everyone is ginger and old spicy, it seems that you are really an old ginger!"

Listening to Gao Ming's metaphor, Li Shimin suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, and waved his hand and slapped him on the back of the head.

"Did you talk like that? Say, what are you going to do? ”

Looking at Li Shimin with a smile on his face, Gao Ming suddenly rubbed the back of his head while pointing to the sign in the box and laughing.

"These gold medals are given to you now, who do you want to show your mood, these silver medals are also given to you, you can give them to whoever you want to woo, believe me, using this brand to win over ministers is definitely better than you marrying your daughter to them, because you have many daughters, but there is only one Tang Royal Club."

After Gao Ming's words fell, Li Shimin frowned slightly at first, but after thinking for a while, he suddenly nodded again.

"I'm in charge, and what about these bronze signs?"

Hearing Li Shimin ask about these copper signs, Gao Ming immediately laughed.

"I'll leave you a hundred of these brands, and I'll reward them if you see those ministers who meet the conditions, and I'll take the remaining two hundred brands and sell them for money, after all, the club also needs expenses."

As soon as Gao Ming's words fell, Li Shimin immediately glared at him.

"You have made a good calculation, a bronze brand is 1,000 yuan, and 200 is 200,000 yuan, why don't you grab it?"

Looking at Li Shimin's indignant face, Gao Ming suddenly grinned.

"I'm just robbing it, those big gates of our Datang are rich, who else can I rob if I don't rob them?"
