Chapter 131: Gift (3)
Chu Fan can be regarded as having seen the demeanor of the top wealthy businessmen in this era.
Needless to say, in the thatched hut was Tadaji Kato, from the time Chu Fan entered the thatched hut to the time he left, the old man said a total of five words.
The first sentence is "Coming?" When Chu Fan entered the door, the old man was leisurely brewing kung fu tea, and only raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, as if Chu Fan had been his friend for many years.
He spoke in Japanese, but Chu Fan actually didn't need Tsunazaburo to translate, so he actually understood the old man's words, nodded and knelt lightly in front of the low table with the ivory tea set.
But the old man's second sentence Chu Fan had to listen to Tsunasaburo's translation, when he was taking over the precious Song Dynasty Jun porcelain teacup from Kato Tadaji's hand, this sentence made his hand tremble, and he almost didn't smash it - "Fairy grass cigarettes, 3 taels and one piece, how many you want, cash silver transaction." β
He was simply, Chu Fan was of course also happy, and after taking a sip of the authentic red robe that exuded a rich aroma, he said two words softly, "Deal!" β
His words seemed to surprise Tadaji Kato, who was tending to the small charcoal stove with his eyebrows lowered, Chu Fan noticed that his hand holding the white copper tongs paused, and some gray eyebrows also trembled slightly.
"Counting this trip, 300,000 this year is no problem, right?"
After being quiet for a while, the old man said the third sentence, which was a question, but for Chu Fan, it was a question without pressure at all.
"500,000 this year, and 100,000 more every year until you can't eat it anymore." Chu Fan took the initiative to increase the code.
Kato Tadaji raised his eyes suddenly, and his somewhat dim old eyes suddenly became extremely clear, as if he was reconsidering the young young man in front of him.
For a long time, Chu Fan had already seen that he was a little hairy in his heart, and the old man suddenly threw the tongs away, and looked up to the sky and laughed.
Chu Fan knew that Tadaji Kato was really unexpected this time, so he smiled and waited for the old man to calm down.
After waiting for several minutes, Tadaji Kato muttered the fourth sentence while wiping his tears, "The afterlife is terrible, the afterlife is terrible!" β¦β¦ In the future, as long as your fleet passes through Goto, our Kato family will be fully responsible for safety...... If you have any requirements, you can ask Saburo...... You remember, in Japan, there is nothing that the Kato family can't do! β
This time it was Chu Fan's turn to raise his eyebrows - this breath was too big.
They are all smart people, and when they say this, basically everything is settled - as for how to hand over the money and goods, these trivial matters are not for Chu Fan and Kato Tadaji to worry about.
So the old man's last words were, "Yixian, please forgive the old man for being rude, people are very tired when they are old, so they won't accompany you...... We'll see you at the dinner in the evening. After speaking, he turned to Tsunasaburo and said, "Saburo, greet your distinguished guests." β
The goal has been achieved, Chu Fan of course got off the donkey down the slope, followed Gang Saburo out of the thatched hut after a few polite words, called Chen Shangren and them along the way, and returned to the flower hall at the second gate.
After taking a seat, Tsunazaburo excused himself very wisely and left the flower hall to Chu Fan and them.
As soon as Tsunasaburo's figure disappeared outside the door, Chen Shangren approached Chu Fan and asked, "How was the talk?" β
Chu Fan, who had been forcibly suppressing his ecstasy, glanced at the people with anticipation on his face and his eyes, and he suddenly became childlike.
"Alas!" Chu Fan frowned and sighed with a bitter face, then shook his head and said, "From the time I went in to the time I came out, I only said five words. β
His words really made the faces of the people who were full of expectations stunned - they only said five words in total, and either the talk collapsed, or the progress was not good, and the talk could not continue.
"Yixian, don't worry," Chen Shangren calmed down first, sat up straight and coughed lightly to comfort him, "Where can this kind of thing be negotiated once, take your time." β
Ge Bi comforted him like this, "Young master, if you really can't sell it to that tea merchant...... Whose silver is not silver? β
Yan Ruxue pursed her lips and snorted in agreement, "That's it!" If you don't know the goods, you ignore him! β
Liu Zhongwen frowned and asked the reason, "Did the talk collapse or something else?" β
Chu Fan couldn't hold back any longer, and said with a smile, "Okay!" Don't even think about it...... Nailed it! Chu Fan often talks about this word, and everyone has long been used to it.
Then, ignoring everyone's stunned looks, he continued, "Okay, 500,000 this year, and 100,000 more every year in the future!" β
As soon as he said this, the flower hall exploded with a "boom", and everyone was surprised and delighted, sighing with nonsense.
"Alright!" Seeing that the scene was too chaotic, Chu Fan hurriedly stretched out his hand and pressed it, "Let's go back and discuss the specifics...... It's still in someone's house. β
The flower hall was quiet again, but the mouth was closed, and the eyes that exchanged with each other were full of disbelief and ecstasy, until Tsunazaburo returned to the flower hall with a group of people, and everyone was much more restrained.
The group of people who came out with Tsunazaburo were all literati and ink writers from Nagasaki, and they came to chat with Chu Fan about poetry and songs, but Chu Fan was not very interested in this kind of literati socializing and singing, but Chen Shangren chatted quite happily with this group of Japanese sour ding.
We chatted until it was almost dark, and the flower hall was filled with candles with faint sandalwood, and Tadaharu Kato came out slowly, and everyone began to sit down and prepare for dinner.
Ancient An Xi was a very painful thing in Chu Fan's opinionβwas it necessary to make such trouble for who sat in which position?
Who knew that there were more rituals on the side of the Wa Kingdom, so Chu Fan had to stubbornly and repeatedly refuse, and finally got his wish and was pressed on the first seat by Kato Tadaji.
The whole process of setting up the seat took a full hour, and then it stopped.
The first dish came up and surprised Chu Fan and Chen Shangren - it was actually the famous "squirrel fish"!
"Brother Yixian, this squirrel fish is an authentic mandarin fish from the upper kingdom!" Tsunazaburo introduced a little proudly, which made Chu Fan even more speechless - not to mention anything else, in this era, just by transporting this fish, I am afraid that the money spent can make such a big fish.
The flowing water in the back opened Chu Fan's eyes even more - crystal meat, stewed crab roe lion's head, boiled dried shredded ...... It is full of authentic Huaiyang dishes, especially the Wensi tofu, which is finely and neatly cut, and you can know at a glance that it is the masterpiece of a top Huaiyang chef.
Of course, there are some Japanese dishes later, but the Japanese cuisine of this era is far less elaborate than that of later generations, and it is all sushi, sashimi, etc., which can only be served as a plate.
Not only the dishes, but even the wine surprised Chu Fan, it was actually a high degree of wine, Tsunazaburo introduced it for a long time, and Chu Fan finally knew that it was the Gujing Tribute Wine of the later generations - this is not the Gujing Tribute Wine that can be bought anywhere in the later generations, but the real royal tribute wine, how can idlers drink it? I don't know how the Kato family got it.
was in a happy mood, and he was the object of his key care at the table, Chu Fan was not long after being poured down by Tsunasaburo and those Japanese sour dings, and he didn't even know how to get back to the room.
