Chapter XVI Bribery
Wen Fei didn't say much, got some water to soak his needle, let others see, it was still smooth as new, shiny into silver. Let those farmers who have never seen the world stunned. At this time, the needles were all made of iron, dark and dull, and their appearance could not be compared.
Therefore, although I don't know the price of the needle at this time, it is still very attractive for a penny, and I sold all the dozens of packs of needles he brought. Add in some other gadgets, and the harvest is more than the last time I sold buckets and pots.
Wen Fei smiled and walked to the house of Chen Niwan, and many people came to ask for buckets today, saying that the plastic buckets he sold a few days ago were quite easy to use, strong and lightweight. I don't know if Chen Niwan is angry?
Chen Nimaru is repairing a bucket at the door of his broken shed, and he not only makes new barrels to sell, but also helps people repair old barrels, replace rotten wood chips, and so on. Seeing Wen Fei coming, he didn't even lift his eyelids.
But Ge Erlang couldn't stay idle, took the opportunity to be lazy, and said with a smile: "Daoist, you can do it." I get so many good things every time...... Where did you buy it, and how about making a fortune with me?"
Wen Fei only smiled bitterly, he really didn't know how to say this kind of thing. Fortunately, hearing Ge Erlang's words, Chen Niwan's face suddenly sank, and he scolded: "Work hard, don't think about crooked ...... all day long"
Wen Fei hurriedly took out a bottle of Moutai: "Uncle Chen, I invite you to drink!"
Chen Niwan just wanted to refuse, but Wen Fei had already opened the bottle quickly, and the smell of wine wafted in all directions. Chen Niwan's nose twitched twice, and with a grunt in his throat, he swallowed back the words of refusal.
"It's so fragrant!" Ge Erlang exclaimed, "What kind of wine is this, how can it be so fragrant?"
Wen Fei smiled, he went to buy a black pottery wine jug, poured Moutai wine into it, and threw the bottle away. Otherwise, it would not be good for others to recognize what is written on it.
"Chang Geng, go buy some side dishes!" Chen Niwan ordered.
As soon as Ge Jiro heard this, his face cried. Fortunately, Wen Fei had eyes, and hurriedly grabbed a handful of copper coins, which were enough for dozens of Wen. Na Ge Erlang took it unceremoniously, and this time he went out happily.
"Sit!" is probably really a soft-mouthed relationship, Chen Niwan finally opened his mouth to ask Wen Fei to sit down, and Wen Fei, who was moved, almost burst into tears. Nima, am I easy for this word?
"Chang Gung's child has a good heart, but I, a good master, am greedy for wine, and I have to drink two pennies of wine when I earn a penny. makes this son a little sad, Chang Geng, the kid, is in charge of money, so he has developed such a little greedy and cheap xing character. Don't be surprised!"
Wen Fei was suddenly flattered: "Where can it? Where can it?" Heart Dao Bai Yu Toad took advantage of me, what a great honor this is......
"You are his master, do you want to teach him how to make a hoop bucket?" Wen Fei asked deliberately.
Chen Niwan glanced at Wen Fei meaningfully: "Don't you know?"
Wen Fei was suddenly a little stunned: "I didn't know it, but I knew it last time I saw you save people!"
Seeing the sincerity of what Wen Fei said, Chen Niwan was a little surprised: "Didn't Wang Zhiming send you?"
Wen Fei shook his head and said suspiciously: "Who is Wang Zhiming? I don't know! I just remembered who you were when I saw you using runic water to knead mud pills to treat people's diseases." So...... Hehe...... "Wen Fei was a little embarrassed.
At this time, Ge Erlang bought things back, all of them were cooked foods such as braised pork, and the fragrant smell wafted in: "Hehe, buy two catties of beef to eat today, and relieve your cravings!"
Wen Fei was suddenly shocked: "I can't eat beef!"
It's not that Wen Fei is afraid of mad cow disease or something, but when he was drinking and chatting with the fat man of Zhang Yu, the fat man of Zhang Yu talked about some things in the Northern Song Dynasty along Su Dongpo. From Su Dongpo eating pork to the Northern Song Dynasty wanting to eat beef at this time, it is like wanting to eat chicken during the modern bird flu, which is quite difficult. Cattle are the most important production tool at this time, and they are the most valuable to use all the carts for ploughing land. It is not allowed to kill cattle at all, at most it is a cow that dies of illness and old age, and only then can it be killed and sold for meat. So I wanted to be like the Water Margin, so I ran to the hotel and shouted: "Xiao Er, cut me two catties of good beef...... "That must not be eaten!"
Last time, Wen Fei bought a chicken and a leg of mutton, and he didn't see anyone selling beef for a long time, but after inquiring, he found out.
There are no chemical additives these days, so you don't have to worry about any mess in these cooked meats. It's very safe to eat.
That Ge Erlang didn't know if he was happy without meat, or if Wen Fei's money was not distressed to spend, and all he bought was meat. Braised beef, chicken feet in sauce, lamb liver, three or four dishes, all of which are full of portions, all wrapped in lotus leaves, real green food.
Wen Fei was greedy, but when he saw Ge Erlang's eating appearance, he didn't dare to grab it. However, Chen Niwan only drank wine, rarely moved his chopsticks, and praised from time to time: "Good wine, good wine." Except for the wine, everything else is better. But it's good to have a lot of wine, but it saves a lot of wine!"
Ge Erlang interjected on the side: "My master drinks in the forum!"
Wen Fei followed his gaze, and saw a pile of clay wine jars in the corner, which looked very rough, and it would not be a good wine in it.
Wen Fei suddenly remembered, today I saw someone selling wine with a pick, all of which were packed in large wooden barrels. It looks like it is in bulk, and the wine is cloudy, half yellow and not black. A bowl will sell for five cents!
At that time, Wen Fei bought a bowl and drank it with the intention of inspecting the market, and almost squirted it out in one gulp. Nima, where is this wine, it is clearly vinegar!
And there was a lot of sake lees mixed in the wine, so the wine was very strong, like porridge. It is no wonder that drinking wine in ancient times was not called drinking, but eating wine. For example, Fu said to just get a little low-grade liquor, and at this time, seeing such a pure and transparent liquor can already be called jade liquid elixir!
"If you always like it, I will often bring you wine in the future!" Wen Fei nodded and bowed, with a very good translation style in front of Taijun.
Chen Niwan glanced at Wen Fei with slanted eyes, and said, "No need, I can't help you!"
When Wen Fei heard this, he was overjoyed. He can be regarded as a salesman who has worked as a marketing clerk, and he can completely defend against bullets when he is thick-skinned. As soon as he heard Chen Niwan's words, he could hear that his refusal was no longer as categorical as the first time, and his tone was loosened.
