Chapter 764: It's hard to give New Year's money
Chapter 764
It is difficult to give New Year's money
There are a lot of people coming to the Hibiscus Garden.
There are civil and military generals, there are wives who are commanded, the grades are not low, and the officials who are too small do not let them come, and they are replaced by ordinary people, like a lottery, let people apply first, and finally choose which one counts.
However, businessmen with a fortune of more than 10,000 yuan were not allowed to enter, and they were deliberately suppressed to let the merchants know that it was not enough to have money, and that money could not completely decide the affairs of this world.
There is also the prince of heaven and earth, and there are ethics and morals to be abided by, don't expect to take money above the personality of others, let alone think about interfering with politics.
The people who came to the Furong Garden to spend Chinese New Year's Eve were very well-behaved, and no one complained when they were arranged far away from the emperor, and the emperor's safety was very important, what to do in case someone assassinated.
When Zhang Wang's two teams arrived, they had already begun to eat dumplings, and it was a little late, and it was not easy to walk on the road.
Li Longji only symbolically ate two dumplings, and then kept clinking glasses with people and drinking, drinking red wine mixed with juice, not dry red, if he drank dry red, Li Longji was reluctant to mix other things in it, the taste had too much impact, it was better not to drink dry red.
The officials also symbolically ate two dumplings, and did not eat much vegetables, for fear that after eating too much, the stomach would be uncomfortable, and it would be a question of whether to vomit or not when the time comes.
The person who drank the most was Hubu Shangshu Wang Hui, and the Zhang and Wang families had already cut off the welfare of the house for a year, if it weren't for the fact that the daughter-in-law was pregnant, she wouldn't even eat the birds in the Northeast.
In front of the emperor, he finally gave something during the New Year, but it was far less than that of other ministers, and the spare money in the family was not much, and he invested in the group that cooperated with the Ministry of Industry, and he still did not make a profit.
Wang Hui admits that he has to admire Zhang Xiaobao for this point, the calculation is too good, there is no fraud in the accounts, the operation of the group gives people the feeling that it will always be healthy and upward, and the future development prospects are very broad, but the amount of income and expenditure will remain balanced.
Just like playing chess, if the level is high enough, it is very easy to lose and win, but it is difficult to think that every game ends in a draw.
However, Zhang Xiaobao did it, under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes, he couldn't find a single fault, every time the group has a new business or cooperation, it is the moment when the group's funds are exhausted.
Then someone proposes a new solution, waiting for themselves and others to sign and agree, and if they are not willing to sign, they can hold a meeting to discuss other solutions.
I discussed it with my group, and finally found that if I didn't follow the new method, the group would go bankrupt, so I signed, and the result of signing was to enter the next crisis and continue to be trapped.
This is Zhang Xiaobao's terrible appearance, everything is on the bright side, let you watch the operation, you can't make a profit when you give you hope, and when you are desperate, you find that you haven't lost money, and look at other things that people usually do, and find that people don't bother much in this matter.
It's the same as playing, and he has been dealing with finance for many years, so it's no wonder that the businessmen of Datang are so afraid of him.
Since there is no welfare in ordinary times, then eat him hard, drink his, the current wine is made from grapes made in the northwest four years ago, it is said that Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan tasted it, the most satisfied, the taste is pure.
Drink, take advantage of an extra sip of drink.
Wang Hui drank dizzily under the control of such thoughts, and he still kept drinking, and he had already drunk one and a half bottles of 600 milliliters of bottled wine.
When the people of Zhang and Wang's families came to Furong Garden, the people of the entire Furong Garden were excited, cheering one after another, Wang Hui tried his best to make his expression more gloomy, but because he drank too much, his face was flushed, and he still had such a spirit stimulated by alcohol.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were reluctant to be too ostentatious in front of people because of their identities, so they took a detour directly from the side to Li Longji's place, while Xiaobei and his party held their heads up, and they had to walk in the middle of the banquet.
When encountering the official seat, he bent down slightly and bowed his hand to greet the New Year, everyone is an official, Xiaobei and others will not kowtow to people, and the officials can't take out too much New Year's money.
Walking all the way, the officials accompanied the smiles, don't look at Xiaobei's group of children, they are really offended, they turn their faces and check people, basically one check is accurate, and there is no clean official who can sit in this position.
"Wang Shangshu has a good New Year, eh? Wang Shangshu, have you drunk too much? Also drink bottled wine, drink less, alcoholism is not good for the body. ”
Xiaobei took the lead and walked in front of Wang Hui, saw the wine bottle next to his small table, and then looked at the look on his face, and kindly persuaded that last year, my brother calculated enough for others, and it was a happy New Year, so I didn't look for trouble for the time being, otherwise it would be too childish.
Wang Hui also returned the salute, feeling very awkward, the other party is obviously a child, although it is much smarter than ordinary children of the same age, but children are children, even if Xiaoyuan and other prodigies who have never forgotten it are uncomfortable to look at, children should not compete with adults.
Suppressing the unhappiness in his heart, Wang Hui said retaliatorily: "It's okay, the wine is very good today, especially the wine made by your family four years ago, drink it happily." ”
"Huh?" Xiaobei was stunned for a moment, and asked puzzledly: "In this case, why doesn't Lord Wang take it home and drink it slowly, all the things at today's Furong Garden banquet are provided by my family, and the bottled wine is divided into two bottles for one person, and the officials above the fifth grade have it, and it is for you to take home to drink."
At the banquet, I drank the wine made the year before last, it was barreled, and I didn't drink the two kinds of wine, but my brother and sister said that it was good four years ago, and there were two bottles for each person, and you drank so much now, what else do you get when you go home? You don't give your family a taste? ”
After speaking, Xiaobei sighed, shook his head and continued to walk up, above is where the Zhongshu Order is, and after the Zhongshu Order, it is Li Longji.
Wang Hui looked at Xiaobei and the others talking to the prime minister again, the wine, he had already woken up for more than half of the time, and looked at Jiang Cen, the official of Sinong Temple next to him, in amazement, and asked, "Can I take this wine home?" ”
"Yes." Jiang Cen nodded, his grade was not high, if it weren't for the fact that Sinong Temple had become more and more important in recent years, he would not have been able to stand by Wang Hui's hand at all.
"This wine has two bottles per person, and I don't know when I will be able to meet the same good year next time, and then make good wine, so it is very precious, and the lower officials are reluctant to keep it, but the lower officials admire the boldness and atmosphere of Lord Wang."
"......" Wang Hui obviously sweated on his head, looked at the remaining half bottle of wine he drank, and asked, "I wonder how long it can be stored after opening the bottle?" ”
"This ...... It seems that it can't be stored for a long time, if it's cold today, it's okay to save it for three or five days, after all, the air goes in, the bulb factory has the equipment to pump air, and it can be stored for a while longer. ”
Jiang Cen didn't understand what Wang Hui meant, but he still gave an answer he could think of.
"Hehe, hehe, I see, oops, I'm already dizzy from drinking, it's better to be like this, the remaining half bottle is for you, when you want to open the bottle, invite me to drink it again, how about it?" Wang Hui came up with a solution.
"Lord Wang laughed, today the officials are too strong to drink, I really can't drink anymore, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Jiang Cen now knows what is going on with Wang Hui, he doesn't want to divide the wine in the future, if this wine is placed well, the taste will get better and better, and the open bottle of wine will be worthless.
Wang Hui was not reluctant, sat back in frustration, looked at the rest of the wine, did not drink, did not drink, and was annoyed, he drank too much just now, and forgot to taste it.
Xiaobei didn't pay attention to what Wang Hui thought, at this time she had already come to the bottom of Li Longji's seat, knelt there, and then knocked her head down three times in a row, shouting in her mouth: "Uncle Emperor, Xiaobei has a New Year's greeting to you, I wish the Tang New Year a new atmosphere, and I wish the Emperor Uncle a good New Year." ”
Xiao Yuan and the others also knelt down and kowtowed, everyone had auspicious words to say, they were different, and after kowtowing, they didn't get up, looking up at Li Longji.
Li Longji felt a lot of pressure when he boarded, this year's New Year's money is not easy to do, Xiaobei They are a little late in making money this year, but they also have more than 4 million yuan, catching up with the financial income of the Tang Dynasty in the early Yuan Dynasty.
So Li Longji looked at Zhang Xiaobao, who had just turned from behind, and that meant to ask me how much money I had now.
