Chapter 690: Old Friends
Dou Shaodong's family frowned slightly, he didn't want to be an official, he didn't want to please the literati, he just wanted to make money, he couldn't wait to take the ham to the capital immediately, for fear that something would go wrong if he left this good thing in his hands.
Dong Dongjia whispered to him: "Don't be stupid, if you can get acquainted with Mr. Ouyang, you can be looked up to by your father a lot when you return home, and you can be in charge of the Dou family." ”
The Dou family is the Dong family's fierce rival in Jinling, although the Dou Shaodong family has a flamboyant personality, he is a very good person, he can do things, and he will leave a way back for other merchants, and he will not kill them all. Dong Dongjia likes to deal with him very much, and hopes that he can take charge of the Dou family and be the head of the Dou family.
After weighing the pros and cons, Dou Shaodong's family finally nodded: "Cheng, I'll go to Zheng County Ling's house for one night." ”
"Hmph." Ouyang Hu snorted coldly: "Today's boys are all cheap and well-behaved. ”
Dou Shaodong didn't hear it, turned his head and laughed at Boss An: "Old man, where are your ham going to be auctioned?" There is the Dong family in Jinling, the Dou family in the capital, and the location of your home in He'an Mansion. But the people in He'an Mansion are all poor ghosts, who will spend a few thousand taels of silver to buy you a pork leg? ”
Boss An was so angry that he pointed at him and said, "Don't be complacent, I also have a lot of big families in Jianghuai, and it's okay to spend a few thousand taels of silver to buy one or two treasures." ”
"Heh, isn't it a pork leg? How did it become a treasure again? "Dou Shaodong's family is young and vigorous, and he thinks that Boss Qi'an is very funny, and he said that many Jianghuai people are poor and ghostly, Jianghuai people can't do business, Jianghuai has no madmen, and Jianghuai has no important ministers.
Not to mention Boss An, Gu Jinli was going to be angry when she heard it, her family is also from Jianghuai now.
"This Dou Shaodong's mouth is really poisonous, he must have accumulated virtue in his previous life if he can live until now." Otherwise, he would have been beaten to death.
Qin Sanlang came to the window, glanced down, and saw that Dou Shaodong's family was still scolding Boss An, and Boss An had been helped by Boss Tian with a look of being about to faint, and smiled: "The mouth is indeed very poisonous." ”
He is also very flamboyant, when he was a child, he felt that his stepmother would poison him, and in order to survive, he ran to the largest restaurant in the capital to shout, saying that if he died, if he could not give birth to a son in the future, if he did not grow up, if he did not get married, he would give birth to a concubine, and he must have been harmed by his stepmother.
Although this trick is rogue, it is very useful, and his stepmother takes a detour when she sees him, and she does not dare to harm him again.
At that time, the "sinus shell" was only six years old.
Qin Saburo just glanced at it and turned around and sat back in place.
Dou Shaodong glanced at the second floor, then quickly turned his head and continued to taunt Boss An.
Boss An couldn't bear it, and asked Gu Jin'an, saying that after auctioning the ham again on January 20 next year, he hurriedly said goodbye and left.
Mr. Qi asked him to wait, and he ran to talk to Gu Jin'an: "Brother An, your ham is a big seller." ”
He whispered again, "Is there any ham left?" What is the plan of the little fish girl? Maybe give some to the Qi family? Don't worry, the Qi family doesn't use it for auction, but they want to buy it for the New Year, so they buy it and give it to my eldest brother, so that he can give it to Shangfeng as a New Year's gift. ”
Master Qi has worked hard for many years, and finally been promoted, but he has not yet gained a firm foothold, if he can send a ham to Shangfeng, this official position will be stable.
Gu Jinan said: "Mr. Qi, I have already said in the previous auction that there are only ten hams in Yanfu Building this year, and they cannot be evenly given to the Qi family." However, if Mr. Qi really wants to buy it, he can sell it to your family after the year, and the reserve price is 1,000 taels. ”
Profiteer!
Mr. Qi scolded secretly in his heart, but still nodded and said, "Cheng, I will send someone to get it after that year." ”
Something is better than nothing.
After Mr. Qi finished saying this, he took the return gift from Yanfulou and took Boss An and left.
Hu Dongjia also came to say goodbye, and said apologetically: "I originally wanted to come to your family to cheer for you, but I didn't expect ham to be so tight, it's really ......."
Gu Jinan smiled and said: "If Uncle Hu wants ham, you can buy it after the New Year, and Yanfulou will sell ten hams to Futailou at a reserve price of 1,000 taels of silver." ”
Hu Dongjia was shocked, it was really a pie in the sky, and it was still breaded with silver: "Brother An, uncle, thank you, with these ten hams, Futailou can not only gain a firm foothold in Fucheng, but also open the restaurant to Linhe Mansion." ”
Gu Jinan said with a smile: "Uncle Hu is polite, Futai Lou makes money is our Yanfu Lou to make money." ”
Fu Tai Lou is selling dozens of dishes from Yan Fu Lou, and the more he sells, the more his family earns.
Hu Dongjia was very grateful, did not stay long, and left with the return gift given by Yanfu Building.
After Gu Jin'an and his son took Cheng Ge'er to send Hu Dongjia, Zheng Xianling, and Ouyang Hu away, they went up to the second floor and gave Gu Jinli the silver tickets they earned today.
"Thirteen thousand nine hundred taels." As soon as Gu Jinan's words came out, everyone was shocked.
Qin Sanlang is also a person who has seen a lot of money, but he has earned tens of thousands of taels of silver with only ten pork legs, and it is really the first time he has seen it, Xiaoyu is too good at making money.
Gu Jinli happily counted the silver tickets: "This is all my hard-earned money." ”
Brother Cheng snorted: "The second sister just stood next to her and said a few words, where is the hard work?" The hard work is the Xiong family, the Ma family and the Mei family. ”
Gu Jinli didn't pay attention to him, but put away the silver ticket.
After Gu Dashan was shocked, he began to ask worriedly, "Have you seen Brother Wu?" It's almost afternoon, why haven't you come back yet? ”
Gu Jinli was now angry when he heard Luo Wu's words, and said to Gu Dashan: "Dad, don't care about him, let's go back to the banquet and spend the winter solstice." ”
Gu Dashan said: "How can you not care? Wu Ge'er ......"
If Brother Wu doesn't come back, how can he talk about his marriage to Sister Xiu'er? How old are his eldest daughters? He and Cui's were so worried that they couldn't sleep.
Gu Jinli said: "Dad, let's go back first, give him two more hours, if he doesn't come back after dark, Brother Qin will go to him." ”
In addition to going home first to give Luo Wu a chance, he also wanted to see the attitude of the Luo family.
Gu Jinli has always been very puzzled, Uncle Luo has such a good relationship with his father, and the Chu family can also talk to her mother, why did he let the marriage between the two families drag on until now?
Her father and mother will always wait for the Luo family, not only because they feel that Luo Wu knows the roots, but also because they trust Father Luo and the Chu family.
Gu Dashan and the Cui family are both people who don't have any opinions, and it is all up to the Luo family to protect their brothers and sisters in their hometown and on the way to escape from the famine. Therefore, Gu Dashan and Cui's are very dependent on the Luo family, so they want to be in-laws with the Luo family.
And after what happened to Zhan Er, Gu Dashan and his wife were even more determined in this idea, for fear that if they found someone else for their eldest daughter, they would find someone who didn't know the roots, such as the Zhan family, it was too scary, and they didn't want to hurt the eldest daughter.
After hearing this, Gu Dashan was relieved, followed the big guy to pack up and drive home in a mule cart.
The house is already very lively, several families get together to cook, several old people sit in the dining room to roast and talk, Gu Qingxi, Jin Niu, and Gui Niu are chasing and playing.
"Xiaoyu, you come back." Luo Huiniang saw Gu Jinli coming back and hurriedly ran over.
Three years have passed, Luo Huiniang is sixteen, she is a big girl, she is a lot taller, but she still has a round face and looks very cute and cute.
As he spoke, he looked at the Gu family's mule cart again, and said disappointedly, "Hasn't my brother come back yet?" ”
I'm really anxious to kill her, if the eldest brother doesn't come back this time, he won't be able to marry Sister Xiu'er!
