247 The Crown Princess summoned
Hearing this, Gong Xichu's face froze for a moment, although he knew that the real situation was not the case, he was still a little embarrassed.
As soon as Vice General Xu said it, he felt that something was wrong, and he couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, trying to explain, "That, I'm not ......"
"It's fine." Gong Xichu grinned with difficulty, "It's not you who thinks like this, I don't care anymore." ”
"Useless stuff!" Yuan Shuai hated iron and scolded, "I can't even control a woman, don't say that I taught it in the future." ”
Gongxi Chu hung his head deeply and remained silent.
Vice General Xu felt that what he had just spoken was a little too reckless, so he persuaded on the side: "Yuan Shuai, don't be in a hurry to scold, maybe there is something hidden!" Let's just listen to Achu talk about it. ”
Gong Xichu also felt a little panicked when he went back this time, so he told everything again, and asked at the end, "Master, Uncle Xu, you said that I beat her once, and I usually treat her very well, why does she have to leave Bofu to earn some house by herself?" ”
Yuan Shuai and Vice General Xu were more and more surprised the more they listened, and after a while, Yuan Shuai sighed, "I don't know what kind of bad luck your kid had, but he married a Monkey King who can go to heaven and earth." ”
"Master, don't laugh at me, I'm uncomfortable enough." Gongxi Chu was slightly annoyed.
Vice General Xu couldn't help laughing, and when he saw that Gong Xichu was about to change his face, he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, Ah Chu, I'm not laughing at you, I just think what Yuan Shuai just said is quite funny." ”
Yuan Shuai was still staring, "Did I say something wrong?" People who have married dozens of wives are not all obedient like cats, just him, if you can control the tigress, you will marry if you want to marry, but now you let the female old * come up, are you still called a man? Seizing the opportunity, Yuan Shuai criticized his beloved apprentice.
Gongxi Chu only lowered his head to listen to the training, and didn't even dare to reply.
The more he was like this, the more angry Yuan Shuai became, and he pointed his head with his hand and said, "If you let a woman ride on the head again, don't say it's my apprentice, get out of my way!" ”
"What do you want me to do? Now she has a big belly and can't come hard. Gong Xichu said angrily: "Do you want me to tie her up?" What if it hurts a child? That's my two sons! ”
What to do? Yuan Shuai blinked, in fact, his wife died early, and he was obsessed with martial arts, how could he know how to discipline a woman without half of the room? But as a master, can you say that you don't know when your apprentice humbly asks for advice? Of course not!
Yuan Shuai snorted coldly, "This won't be?" Wouldn't it be honest to go down with a few slaps directly? It's a hit in the face and can't hurt your stomach, and besides, you can't control the force? If you don't obey again, you'll be scared. I'm going to divorce her, I'm going to keep it! ”
Gong Xichu sighed and glanced at Yuan Shuai, who had a straight chest and a smug face, "Isn't it because I slapped her that way?" ”
Yuan Shuai choked, and said unconvinced: "That's not because you fight less!" ”
"Master, she is my woman, not an enemy!" Gong Xichu glanced at Yuan Shuai, who was still stubborn, and pursed his lips disdainfully.
"......" Yuan Shuai was choked speechless, paused, and then kicked at Gong Xichu in annoyance and anger, and shouted in his mouth, "Do you dare to stare at me here when you leave the camp without permission?" Squat down for me, I won't get up if I don't speak! ”
Gongxi Chu was unlucky and was punished, but Hua Ronghua on the other side was complacent.
The three-day exhibition ended quickly, earning a total of more than 70,000 taels of silver, and the transaction volume reached 350,000 taels.
Not only did Hua Ronghua smile from ear to ear, but even the prince had two more smiles on his face.
"Mrs. Hua has done a good job in this matter, and this king deserves to reward you!" The prince took the opportunity to signal Gonggong Cui to bring the tray containing the deed given by Gongxi Chu to Hua Ronghua.
Hua Ronghua was stunned, picked up the deed paper and looked at it, but saw that it was a two-entry house, which just matched his requirements.
At first, when she opened her mouth to ask for the house, she could still look straightforward, but now she really got it in her hand, but her face was uncomfortable, "Really give it to me?" Actually, I didn't help much, didn't Your Highness want to replenish the treasury? I'm afraid it's not enough to rely on these tens of thousands of silver, right? ”
Mr. Cui said with a smile on the side: "This little bit of silver is naturally not enough compared to the lack of the treasury, but I have earned so much in only three days, which is a unique speed." Previously, I had been in contact with those Fanbang people on behalf of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for half a month, and the total amount of silver earned was less than 20,000 taels, so it was natural for Mrs. Hua to be rewarded. ”
"In that case, then I will be disrespectful, thank you, Your Highness!" Hua Ronghua really thanked him sincerely, if the prince pretended not to do such a thing and didn't give it, then he would have no problem at all, would he want to petition? Petitioning is someone's father, and it is not necessarily to anyone!
The prince was slightly uncomfortable, he cleared his throat and continued to ask, "Mrs. Hua, when do you think we will hold a second exhibition?" Although he is not involved in business, he also feels that the benefits of the trade fair have come, and he can earn so much without investing a penny himself, isn't this a sure deal?
"Actually, if you want to do it, you can do it now, but if you're not ready, you can only wait for two more days." Hua Ronghua said while thinking.
"If that's the case, then I'll go and inform those merchants now." Mr. Xiao saw Hua Ronghua looking at him in surprise and couldn't help laughing: "Early this morning, those merchants jointly signed a letter hoping to extend the exhibition for another two days. ”
Who knew that after listening to Mr. Xiao's words, Hua Ronghua shook his head resolutely, "No, even if there is another exhibition, the merchants who enter the exhibition cannot be these people, they must have not entered the exhibition, and it is best to sell the goods that were not in the previous exhibition." ”
Mr. Xiao was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "Why?" Are those merchants willing to pay double the service fee? ”
"But our main income is commissions! In the past few days, the guests who have the ability to buy these luxury goods should have visited the exhibition, and the things they want to buy should have been almost bought, even if those goods are placed for a few more days, they may not be able to sell much, and if they can't sell them, we can't earn commissions, how much can we earn just by relying on that little service fee? Besides, a part of this service fee will be distributed to the men and soldiers at the venue. ”
After listening to Hua Ronghua, the prince and Mr. Xiao were silent, indeed, if you only rely on the service fee of two hundred taels, it is indeed not profitable.
Mr. Xiao smiled and asked shamelessly, "Mrs. Hua, you just said that you would give the men and soldiers a piece of silver?" ”
"yes? Are you not going to give? Although most of them are your minions or subordinates, can they do it for you if they don't give you any benefits? What's more, this is not people's job. Hua Ronghua looked at Mr. Xiao, who was full of books, and thought to himself, did this scholar think that if he only said two words, 'everyone has worked hard', people will work hard for you?
"What are Mrs. Hua's plans?" The prince opened his mouth and asked, because of the success of this exhibition, the prince had a kind of blind trust in Hua Ronghua.
"Uh......" Hua Ronghua looked at the two people who were staring at him without blinking, his face was slightly feverish, he was just picking up people's teeth, but he was regarded as a military advisor, this feeling was not ordinary cool.
But if you want to pretend, you have to pretend to understand, otherwise you may have to lose your head! Thinking that his life might be in danger, Hua Rong Huawei's fluttering heart finally calmed down, cleared his throat and said: "Your Highness, I want to ask first, do the royal businessmen who are dedicated to the royal family participate in this exhibition?" ”
The prince really didn't know about this, so he couldn't help but turn his eyes to Mr. Xiao.
Mr. Xiao shook his head with a slight hean and said, "No." Someone came to ask, but after all, they were dealing in tribute, and they felt that selling it with other goods was a bit of a loss of identity. ”
Hua Ronghua couldn't help but be overjoyed, "Great, can His Royal Highness the Crown Prince go and discuss with the emperor and let all the imperial businessmen come to an exhibition!" And as long as it doesn't violate the rules, some tributes can also be sold at the venue, so that if those rich people know that they can buy things used by the emperor's ladies, I think they will buy them no matter how much money it is, and we can also set the price of the admission card a little higher. ”
"This ......" keeps royal supplies on the market? The crown prince was a little embarrassed, and he didn't agree, "This king will go to play the emperor." Mrs. Hua is tired for so many days, so let's go and rest early, and go to the house in Fruit Lane early tomorrow morning to have a look. ”
"Thank you, Your Highness the Prince." Hua Ronghua thought of something and stopped and asked, "Prince, this house is mine, right?" ”
The prince nodded, thinking to himself that he had made it very clear.
"Then the prince won't take it back for anything, right?" Hua Ronghua asked with some concern.
"Of course not, as long as you don't commit the big crime of raiding your house, this house will always be yours." The prince is a little funny, this Mrs. Hua really thinks enough.
Hua Ronghua smiled reassuringly, "Great." ”
When the prince saw that Hua Ronghua was about to walk out of the hall door, he suddenly remembered something, "Mrs. Hua, wait a minute." ”
"Your Highness?" Hua Ronghua turned around puzzled.
"You go and see the crown princess first, she has something to look for you."
The crown princess looking for her? Hua Ronghua was a little stunned, and Niu Ya pondered while walking out, it had been many days since she had lived in the East Palace, and she had never seen this princess, why did she suddenly summon herself? Could it be that someone chewed the root of their tongue and thought that they had some ambiguous relationship with the prince? Will she hold a grudge against herself? Will you poison your tea? Or light incense to promote miscarriage? Or directly put a trumped-up charge on his head and then kill him with a cane?
The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, Hua Ronghua felt that the road she was walking was like a path to the netherworld, which made her feel cold and swish, and her steps slowed down unconsciously.
The little waiter who led the way wanted to urge but didn't dare to urge, and he was anxious enough.
In the end, Niu Ya, who was following beside her, couldn't wait any longer, and asked, "Young lady, why are you walking so slowly, even an ant can walk faster than you!" ”
The little chamberlain also took the opportunity to speak, "Mrs. Hua, take a few steps, I'm afraid it's too late for Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess to rest, so it won't be good to summon you!" It's good that he didn't say this, but as soon as he said Hua Ronghua, he walked more slowly.
The waiter's head was about to sweat, and Niu Ya asked directly: "Young lady, are you tired?" Or the cow will carry you! ”
Hua Ronghua glanced at the stupid maid with hatred, and smiled flatteringly at the little maid who was a little confused, "What do you call this little father-in-law?" ”
"Well, the slave is prosperous, and Mrs. Hua just calls the slave's name." The little chamberlain was a little unsure of what Hua Ronghua was going to do, so he answered extremely carefully.
"Is that crown princess good-tempered?" Hua Ronghua couldn't help but ask, thinking to himself, he knows more about the crown princess, and he should be prepared when the time comes.
