"Steward Dong?" Another housekeeper? Everyone followed Xie Hong's gaze and looked at the courtyard gate of the Xie family, only to see that the door was broken again, and a fat man in a silk robe walked out with a rebellious face.
Xie Hong turned around and saluted, "Steward Dong, I'm really sorry, I'm going to bother you." ”
"Hmph." The fat man snorted coldly, "Really, the poor are the most troublesome." ”
The conversation between the two was a bit clueless, but everyone could see it, and it seemed that Master Xie was very respectful to this steward Dong, but ...... This fat man actually has such an attitude towards Master Xie? Who is he, who can make the limelight Xie Zhushu bow his head?
Some people recognized it, Fu Bantou was one of them, he bowed his head and reported to Wang Zhi County: "County Zun, this person is the housekeeper of Dongjiazhuang, and the Dong family is ......" After speaking, he scratched his head and wondered a little: "Last time, the Dong family was very respectful to Master Xie, but now it is strange." ”
Without waiting for Wang Zhixian to respond, the fat man trotted all the way, and when he got closer, he bowed and saluted, and said flatteringly: "Little Dong Dangdang, see Lord Zhixian." ”
Wang Zhixian already knew his origin, but he didn't dare to be too lazy, he was curious, so he asked, "Steward Dong, ......are you here?"
Hearing him ask, the fat man began to pour bitter water, "My lord doesn't know, last time our owner thanked the owner for his guidance, and he was commensurate with his brother, which is very good." However, Master Xie's mother was seriously ill and spent a lot of money, and borrowed a lot from our Dong family. ”
The fat man sighed and said, "My lord, as the saying goes: Brothers settle accounts, not to mention that my master and Master Xie are not brothers. It's nothing this time or twice, but he borrowed too much, and my lord was also embarrassed. Fortunately, Xie Zhushu finally had some conscience, and he got the news from somewhere, and found this treasure, saying that he could make a fortune by sending it to the capital. ”
He glared at Xie Hong, and gave him another thumbs up, "My lord is benevolent, as soon as I hear him, I will lend him 30,000 taels at once." Thirty thousand taels, tsk, my lord is really righteous. However, for such a big thing, the villain was still not very relieved, so he followed, and when he arrived in the capital, he sold the treasures, and he still had to pay back the money of my Dong family first. ”
I see, no wonder Master Xie agreed to sell it so easily. Everyone suddenly realized, no wonder, Xie Zhushu bought medicine and found a doctor for the sake of his wife, and I heard that he also went to other places to invite famous doctors, what a filial son. Everyone sighed.
Xie Hong was also funny in his stomach. Steward Dong was naturally recruited by him to act, but he didn't expect this fat man's acting skills to be so superb, and Xie Hong, an insider, couldn't see the slightest flaw, let alone an uninformed onlooker. This acting skill, Xie Hong himself is beyond the reach of the dust, full marks!
The Gu family was relatively speechless, and it seemed that this matter was indeed true. Imperial Doctor Gu has been in the capital for a few years, and he is not without knowledge, if he wants to say that this Seven Treasures Linglong Pagoda can be sold in the capital or Lianghuai, as long as he finds the right person, let alone 30,000, it can be sold for 50,000 or 100,000.
So he didn't suspect that the Dong family was conspiring with Xie Hong, Xie Hong was a poor talent, and if he went to the capital, things would probably be taken by force. But the Dong family is different, after his family is also an official eunuch, it is definitely not a problem to recover 30,000 taels of capital, so why deceive people?
Imperial Doctor Gu pondered it carefully, and felt that there should be no problem, and he began to have a headache about money. Thirty thousand taels is nothing in the capital, but in this town, it is really a lot, and the Gu family can take it even if they grit their teeth, but he also hurts it.
After hesitating for a while, he finally spoke: "The descendants of the Xie family, since this is the case, the old man will buy your tower for 30,000 taels." Just ......"
Halfway through his words, he already caused a sensation in the crowd, 30,000 taels, what is priceless? That's it, countless fiery eyes looked at the pagoda, and the enthusiasm made the two cows who were affected on one side palpitate, so scary.
Wang Zhixian's eyelids also trembled a few times, such a large amount, he has never handled this county, if this is used to honor Shangguan, what position can he be promoted? He figured it out.
Master Lu's heart was full of jealousy, last time it was like this, and this time it is again. How can this kid surnamed Xie be so lucky? He completely ignored Steward Dong's words, according to the fat man, Xie Hong was actually just passing by the God of Wealth, and he was just jealous of Xie Hong's luck in his heart.
Xie Hong didn't react, not because of his good acting skills, but because he set this price after repeated consideration. In addition to letting the well-informed owner of Dong Zhuang appraise the price, he also asked Ma Wentao to inquire about the Gu family's background, and this 30,000 taels is the limit that the Gu family can bear. No matter how much, the Gu family will have to sell their property, and the delay will be too long, and Xie Hong is also worried about long nights and dreams.
He was honest in his heart, so he naturally remained silent, and he didn't answer the mouth of the imperial doctor, just smiled and looked at each other.
Imperial Doctor Gu sold a pass, but he didn't receive the response he wanted, sighed secretly in his heart, pulled down his face for the first time, and said in a consultative tone: "Since you have a patient at home, the old man will make an exception and make a move." What is the consultation fee...... I'll charge you three thousand taels. The tone of discussion only existed in his own cognition, in fact, it was still a high-minded tone of charity.
Still so arrogant? Xie Hong scolded in his heart, if a month ago, when I came to seek medical treatment, you said this, my brother would have endured it, even if it was a sky-high price of three thousand taels, it was not negotiable. But now, let's not say that the plan to teach you this old man has come to an end, and let's not say that we have figured out the details of your Gu family.
Just talking about this cure, can you say that a doctor who can't save himself will have medical ethics? That's our mother, how can you let a person with no professional ethics come to heal? You know, Brother Ke is a craftsman, and he is a very particular craftsman, and he cares about professional ethics very much.
Not to mention, in the past two days, he has already offended the Gu family to death. Although the last hand has not yet come out, Xie Hong can also imagine the other party's resentment towards him. If the Gu family is as soft as the Chen family, this matter can still be considered, but Xie Hong glanced at the arrogant expression of the Gu Imperial Doctor, this person still thinks that he has the upper hand?
Let such a person heal a loved one? Xie Hong felt that his IQ was still above the level, so he wouldn't do such a stupid thing.
If you offend the chef and then eat what the chef makes, you may eat unbelievable ingredients. Then if you offend the doctor and let this person treat the disease, who knows what will go wrong. Xie Hong himself doesn't know medical skills, but he still knows that if professionals want to do something, laymen will definitely not be able to see it.
Thinking of this, Xie Hong put away the folding fan and smiled secretly, in the final analysis, his plan was to bully the layman.
"My mother's illness doesn't bother with Lord Gu, the Xie family is an ordinary family, and I can't afford to be Lord Gu's driver. Besides, with a consultation fee of three thousand taels, Xie is incompetent, and he is indeed unaffordable. Xie Hong's face was full of shame, and he shook his head and sighed.
"However, if the adults are willing to reduce the consultation fee, this matter can also be discussed." He changed his tone and said again.
"Hmph." Imperial Doctor Gu snorted coldly, "Ignorant child, what are you doing as an imperial doctor?" Dare to bargain. Take pity on your youth and ignorance, and the old man will forgive you this time, and the consultation fee will be less if it is less. ”
Xie Hong's face was full of joy, and he said: "Then thank you Lord Gu, the official family is poor, but the mother's illness still needs to be treated." The lower officials took out a year's worth of money, and asked the adults to take action. ”
A year's worth of money? Imperial Doctor Gu didn't react, turned his head to look at his housekeeper, and wondered: "Is the county master's book very high?" Can there be thousands of taels a year? ”
The housekeeper smiled bitterly, this Xie master book is too bad, isn't this a pit person? He carefully lowered his voice and said, "Master, that little boy is playing with you, the county master's annual salary is only thirty taels......
"Boy bold!" Imperial Doctor Gu turned around violently, pointed at Xie Hong and shouted angrily: "The old man is the imperial doctor, you dare to ......"
An imperial doctor without medical ethics, Xie Hong added ruthlessly in his heart, since you don't take other people's surnames to heart, today my brother will also let you taste the taste of being looked down upon by others.
He was ruthless in his heart, but his face was smiling brightly, and he spread his hands and said, "Master Gu, whether you are an imperial doctor or something, Xie Mou is already very sincere in taking out a year's salary." Although this treasure was sold for 30,000 taels, this silver is not Xie Mou's. As he spoke, he sighed and looked at the fat man of Steward Dong.
The fat man was very cooperative, glanced at Xie Hong, and then snorted coldly, looking like a housekeeper who loves money like his life and hates his own master and loser.
Imperial Doctor Gu's face was blue and white for a while, and his beard was constantly shaking, Xie Hong was a little worried, this old man should not be so angry. It's not that I'm worried about you, but if you suddenly fall, what can you do with this deal? Brother's plan has run aground.
Xie Hong sang and harmonized with the fat man, although there was a suspicion of strong words, but what he said was also reasonable, and many onlookers were deeply sympathetic. Thirty taels a year, which is already a lot for ordinary people, hundreds of households in Beizhuang County, can take out so much silver as medical money without hesitation, there are few of them.
The buzzing discussion also reached Imperial Doctor Gu's ears, and he became even more annoyed, unable to speak for a while. Just when Xie Hong was worried about whether he would faint with anger, the old man didn't know if he was too strong in promotion, or if his ability to cultivate himself and his surname was good enough, so he actually suppressed his anger.
"Boy of the Xie family, since you disregard your mother's surname, the old man has nothing to do. Gu Fu ......"
"Master, the little one is here." The butler answered.
"You go back to the house, tell the young master, and send the silver."
"But, sir, ......"
"Hmm!"
“…… The little one is commanded. The voice was cold, and Steward Gu could hear that his master was already extremely angry, so he didn't dare to say more, turned his head, and several family members followed.
Looking at the back of Steward Gu, for a while, Ping'an Fang was silent. Everyone had their own thoughts, and they all looked at the colorful light emitted by the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.
