Chapter 379: The Lion Opens His Mouth
Mrs. Li came to Baifu in a high-profile manner, and the four boxes of thank-you gifts were also carried open.
The mother-in-law who followed her, along the way, said how energetic the jade of the auspicious county lord was, and even the imperial doctor did not treat the old lady's illness, but after wearing the jade for a month, the old lady was able to walk on the ground.
In short, the mother-in-law exaggerated all kinds of things, and almost said that Bai Ling's jade was a divine object.
Bai Ling, who had already learned the news, did not intend to refute the rumors.
I have a document signed with Mrs. Li in my hand, which can clearly write the effect of jade, and if someone comes to buy it in the future, I will naturally know what the effect of jade is.
Consumables such as health pills are still limited, and jade will not be sold at will.
"Thank you for the auspicious county lord's jade, the family is in good health, and the whole Shangshu Mansion is grateful to the county lord for his great kindness." After all, Mrs. Li is a lady of the command, and although she said words of thanks, she didn't intend to give a full salute.
"Mrs. Li is polite, there is no need to be polite in this mansion, please take a seat." Bai Ling raised his hand and helped him.
Shang Shu is a third-rank official, but Bai Ling is the second-rank county lord, and Mrs. Li is still a level lower in front of her.
It's just that Bai Ling is young and not from a serious royal background, so people who know the rules see her, that is, they are blessed and saluted.
It's like Mrs. Li came to seek medical treatment last time, but she didn't even make a gesture to bless her body, so it can be seen that she didn't take Bai Ling's identity seriously.
Hearing this, Mrs. Li got up unceremoniously, still with a grateful face: "The county lord's jade has a miraculous effect, the concubine has nothing to repay, prepare a little courtesy, and ask the county lord to smile." ”
"As a doctor, the lord of this county hopes that everyone in the world will live a long and healthy life, and avoid the suffering of medicine stones. However, the county lord's ability is limited, and there is not much he can do. The elder is a blessed person, and he will naturally live a hundred years.
Moreover, the jade was not given to his wife by the lord of the county, but a fair deal, and the lady did not have to be so polite. Bai Ling smiled lightly.
Mrs. Li's face froze, and she suddenly remembered the document she had signed last time.
Before, she only thought that Bai Ling didn't contribute, and she sent four boxes of thank-you gifts, which was already enough to save face, and she didn't plan to return the jade to Bai Ling at all.
"Is Madame going to return the jade, or is she going to buy it for real money?" As if he hadn't seen Mrs. Li's complicated expression, Bai Ling asked.
"Of course I'm going to buy it." Mrs. Li's smile was a little unbearable.
Old lady Li now has a jade treasure very much, and she has to wear it with her every day, how dare Mrs. Li go and ask for it back.
"According to the size and color of the jade, as well as what medicinal herbs are used to feed it, and the time of warmth, the jade pendant that Madame took is worth 100,000 taels of silver. I wonder if Madame is going to pay the silver bill, or cash? Bai Ling asked again.
Mrs. Li almost couldn't help but go crazy, her ears buzzing.
100,000 taels of silver, is there a difference in this robbery?
"With so much silver, Shangshu Mansion can't take it out for a while, so please let me prepare it." The smile on Mrs. Li's face was extremely reluctant, but she couldn't bargain.
This kind of jade is only available to Bai Ling, even if he wants to buy a piece somewhere else to replace it.
What's more, it is written in the contract that if it is invalid, it will be given to Shangshufu, and if it is valid, it will have to be purchased or leased in silver, and Mrs. Li is embarrassed to repay the account in person.
"If this is the case, then Mrs. Law will sign another contract. I just don't know if Mrs. wants to lease or buy? If it is a lease, one hundred taels of silver a day, how long will the lady have to lease, it is better to write in the contract. Bai Ling said with a look of 'I'm very talkative, for the sake of you, madam'.
Mrs. Li almost vomited a mouthful of blood, if this is really leased, not to mention whether the old lady will be angry, Shangshu Mansion can't afford to lose this person.
"Buy, of course." Mrs. Li gritted her teeth and said.
"Mrs. Li is filial, and the county lord will not charge interest. However, how many days will the lady send the silver, please tell me the specific time limit, and the lord of the county can also write it. If the lady's silver is not suitable, she can also use the property to offset the silver, and at that time, according to the official valuation, the excess will be refunded and the deficiency will be compensated. Bai Ling said again.
This time, Mrs. Li really couldn't sit still, she was afraid that if she said a few more words, she would be angry with Bai Ling.
"Give me three...... After five days' work, the people of the government will be sent to send silver tickets to the county lord. Mrs. Li angrily wanted to smash the teacup, and said angrily: "Don't worry, the county lord has not yet fallen to the point where he can't pay 100,000 taels of silver, and he also asks the county lord to write down the documents quickly, and Mrs. Ben can also start to draw the money." ”
Bai Ling smiled gently, ordered the girl to send the four treasures of the study, and soon wrote a new document, after Mrs. Li signed and drawn, she didn't even bother to say goodbye, and left with her subordinates.
I knew that the Bai Ling Society lion opened her mouth widely, and Mrs. Li said that she would not prepare such a heavy thank you gift.
But the things have already been delivered, and so many people have seen that Mrs. Li has no face to bring them back.
"These things are okay, you can watch and sort them out, and send them to the warehouse." Bai Ling just glanced at the four boxes, and she was not interested, but she was in a happy mood, and she would not be stingy, "Pass the word, the county lord is in a good mood today, and everyone in the house has double their monthly money." ”
"Slaves and maids, thank you for the reward." The girl knelt on the ground to thank her, and happily found a little girl to come in and carry things.
If it's just fabric, the girl can take it, but in these four boxes, there are many official kilns and antiques, of course I don't dare to take it.
On weekdays, the inner courtyard is not allowed to come to the small house and the nursing home, but this kind of hard work is not something that the girl can do, so she will call someone to help.
At dinner, Bai Ling specially instructed the kitchen to add vegetables to the whole house, and the three sisters and brothers happily drank some fruit wine, so they didn't care about how they talked about it outside.
Not only in the house, Bai Ling also instructed Begonia to give those dark piles a reward.
bet 100,000 taels of silver and earned back 900,000 taels of silver, the little money that Bai Ling rewarded was not distressing at all, and he had to let the big guy have fun.
White House.
Bai Wei looked at the silver ticket on the table, with a complicated expression.
When Bai Wei came to the capital, the gambling game was still open, but at that time, the proportion of betting on Bai Ling to lose had been reduced to one to three.
Knowing that Bai Ling had never done anything he was not sure of, so after hearing that the two sisters had bet, Bai Wei placed a bet of 20,000 taels of silver.
It's just half a month's work, and she earned 40,000 taels of silver, but Bai Wei didn't feel happy.
"I said that I want to be a person who is better than you, but I still keep using your money, and even the money I earn can't get out of your relationship, is my Bai Wei destined to live in your shadow in this life?" slapped on the silver ticket, Bai Wei closed her eyes, but there was no way to vent the depression in her heart.
Maybe the severance of the relationship was because of comparison and jealousy, but Bai Wei always retained a little reason, otherwise she would have the backbone to not give anything to Bai Ling.
But the more this happened, the heavier the resentment in Bai Wei's heart became, feeling that Bai Ling must be laughing at her incompetence, and even scolding her for being shameless in her heart......
"Ahh Bai Wei suddenly screamed and swept the silver ticket to the ground.
"I'm not reconciled! Obviously you are twins, obviously you are the poor worm who needs to be protected, why do you make everyone look at you with admiration, is my Bai Wei so useless, no one can see me? ”
The anger in Bai Wei's heart could not be extinguished, so she could only cry and laugh in the house, so frightened that the girls who were keeping vigil outside the door hid far away, afraid of turning around and being extinguished.
