Chapter 7 Asking for Help, Zhang Meng Treats
Zhang Meng went on to say that he was not familiar with the situation here, and he didn't understand the market when buying and selling grain, but he knew the market, and it wasn't that there were still three or five days before the delivery date passed, so he handed over the money to Lord Pucai, and asked the Lord to arrange a grain station to help purchase military rations.
This is not a difficult thing to do, what can't be done if you have money? However, Pu Cai figured out Zhang Meng's difficulties, so he made some excuses: "This thing is not very easy to do, I used to hand over military rations with one hand, and I never paid money for food, there is no such precedent, I dare not start this." β
Pu Cai said this, looked at Zhang Meng, and then said, "I will buy for you, and I will save you a lot of freight, but the grain purchase here also needs a fee." In addition, you think, the situation in front of you is so tense, the tasks above are so tight, and everyone is busy with fear, who dares to change the work procedures? Well, isn't that asking for trouble? β
Pu Cai replied to Zhang Meng like this. As soon as Zhang Meng heard that there was a doorway, he brought the money over and put it on the case between the two, and said: "The grain price here, after going down to the market, I basically know that it is estimated that my 4,000 yuan here is enough to purchase 12,000 catties of grain and rice, including wages." Otherwise, please extend the date for me by five days, and I will buy the military rations myself and pay for them. β
When Zhang Meng said this, he took out two hundred money from his arms and put it in front of Pucai, saying: "When we met for the first time, there was no good thing to honor the stationmaster. β
The price of grain here and all other things, Pu Cai is clear, 4,000 yuan to buy more than 10,000 catties of grain and rice, deducting wages, and a surplus of three or five hundred stuffed into his pocket, wouldn't he be happy?
Therefore, when Pu Cai heard Zhang Meng speak like this, he was afraid that the cooked duck in his hand would fly, and he saw the bribe of 200 yuan, and the matter was not difficult, why didn't he agree?
So, Pu Cai put 200 yuan into his sleeve and said, "I see that you Zhang Tingchang is a happy person, okay, I'll help you with this favor." You don't have to worry about the rest, I'll take care of it for you. You play here for a few days, open your eyes, and go back to the business. β
When Pu Cai said this, his eyes purred, and he said: "Your ditch mouth is a small place, not as prosperous as this Mian County, Zhang Tingchang don't come in vain - the food in the Yingchun Hotel is very distinctive, and a few pheasants accompanying the wine are also good, you can have time to go and have a pastime." Hehe, hehe, really, I guarantee that you are satisfied. β
When Zhang Meng heard this, he opened his mouth and came: "I have a treat tonight, at the Yingchun Hotel, and Lord Wanwang Pucai is here." Deal. β
"ThisΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· Deal? Well, if I don't live up to your kindness, that's good, I like to be happy. Deal! Pucai looked at Zhang Meng with a beautiful face at this time, and replied like this.
So, Zhang Meng said goodbye, took Ma San'er with him, and secretly scolded as he walked: "Look at the general talent, who looks like a dog, and he is also a corrupt official in his bones." Bastard, if I hadn't been in a hurry to find Prime Minister Zhuge Cheng, I wouldn't have begged him to do these things! β
If you want to hold a banquet and invite guests, the host should arrive at the venue earlier than the guests in order to make some arrangements in advance, which Zhang Meng knows.
Even if he is not the master, Zhang Meng will arrive early; Because I heard Pucai say that there is a very beautiful escort girl here, so after returning to the inn, I couldn't press my mind, and I took a break and took Ma San'er to the Spring Festival Hotel.
Zhang Meng's age is the time of blood and strength, he just got married a few days ago, although he slept for two nights and kept doing good things, but today, seven or eight days have passed, how can he survive? If it weren't for the mess of collecting military rations and sending military rations anxiously looking for Zhuge Liang, Zhang Meng would have gone home to roll the sheets with Jiang Mei, and he didn't know how many times he rolled back and forth. Now, I can't help myself!
This is not, Zhang Meng is walking, thinking in his heart, who is he thinking? Thought Gao Ling. Gao Ling is her neighbor and classmate, she is beautiful and good at studying, and she has been Zhang Meng's favorite person since she was a child. To be honest, although he didn't have a trace of skin-to-skin relationship with Gao Ling, but, as I said before, he had long regarded Gao Ling as a dish in his basket, that is, on the day he and Jiang Mei got married, although he and Jiang Mei turned the river and the sea upside down, but when he closed his eyes, he used Jiang Mei as Gao Ling in his heart!
Hi! What are you talking about? This person, no matter which man it is, has a unique object in his heart, and with this one, behind him is the river of thousands of women, and in the process of wading through the river, he is also thinking about the only one that others can never replace.
Zhang Meng entered the hotel, and didn't wait to talk to the boss about business, only to see three or four pheasants come up around, and the ears and temples are sticky on Zhang Meng's body, Zhang Meng's purpose is just to see, but he has no plan to do that actual thing.
At this time, Zhang Meng was drinking tea on the side, and the two women leaned over to find something to say, Zhang Meng asked what the name of one of them was, and she replied coquettishly: "Slave Gao Xiaoling!" Thank you for your care! β
Zhang Meng heard this, "Huh-" shouted out, I don't know whether he regretted or was surprised, he took out a handful of money from his pocket, threw it to the two of them, and ordered: "Go!" I'm here tonight, I have important things to do, don't come here and make trouble! β
As soon as the two women went out, Zhang Meng was deeply touched and said: "No wonder I have a strange feeling when I see her, it turns out that she and Gao Ling are only one word apart!" β
Before dark, this Pucai did not wait to get off work, so he hurriedly brought three good officials to the banquet, and when he saw Zhang Meng, he had to be polite, and then, Zhang Meng ordered the bustard to serve the food and prepare for the banquet to begin.
This Pucai couldn't wait, and shouted: "Where is Gao Xiaoling?" He turned his face and instructed the old bustard: "Call Gao Xiaoling over for me, so that everyone can see my beauty." β
After a while, Gao Xiaoling and a few of them came in, and Pucai was not humble, he reached out and hugged Gao Xiaoling in his arms, gnawed and bit crazy for a while, turned his face to Zhang Meng and said, "Pavilion Chief Zhang, look, this is my lover who is here to keep you, Jun?" I like her from the bottom of my heart! It's been more than half a year, and she only serves me alone, and no one else can lift a finger from her! Well, what about you, Lao Zhang, even if you use the other dozen pheasants, just don't touch this Gao Xiaoling - be considerate, men who don't have their own favorites! Ahββ, isn't it? Hahaha. As he spoke, he raised his hand and patted Zhang Meng's shoulder, and then lowered his head and hugged Xiaoling in his arms and kissed her.
