In the evening, in the garden of the Duke of Wei!
An exquisite banquet table has been set up. Li Jinzhong also took a shower and changed clothes, and took a nap. At this time, he was already full of energy, as if he had not traveled thousands of miles!
When Xu Hongji saw Li Jinzhong again, his face no longer looked sad. He smiled and clasped his fists and said: "Eunuch Li, I was in a rush today and the preparations were a little sloppy. I also ask Eunuch Li not to be offended. Xu will hold a big banquet for Li in the future." Father-in-law, please apologize!"
Li Jinzhong returned the favor with a smile: "You are so polite, Mr. Guo. We don't have such exquisite delicacies in the north. Today, thanks to Mr. Guo, we have gained a lot of experience!"
"Hahahaha!" Xu Hongji laughed when he heard this and said, "Eunuch Li is such a wonderful person. Let's take a seat first and chat while eating. Please!"
Li Jinzhong smiled and said: "The Duke of the country invites you first!"
The two sides were polite again, and then the guests and hosts took their seats, with Xu Wenjue and Lu Qingping accompanying them!
The maid poured drinks for the four of them. Xu Hongji raised his glass and said: "This time Eunuch Li traveled thousands of miles to deliver great news to Xu. Xu will give Eunuch Li a drink first!"
Li Jinzhong clinked glasses with Xu Hongji and said with a smile: "The words of Mr. Guo really hurt our family. You spread your good news yourself. Our family is just a messenger. You have to thank us." It¡¯s better to thank Your Majesty!¡±
After saying that, Li Jinzhong gave Xu Hongji a "you know" look!
Xu Hongji was stunned when he saw this, and then he smiled and said: "What Eunuch Li said is absolutely true. Naturally Xu wants to thank His Majesty for his grace, but Xu also dare not forget Eunuch Li's contribution to spreading the word. Come and drink this first." cup!"
Li Jinzhong raised his glass briefly and said: "Thank you! Thank you!"
After a glass of wine, Li Jinzhong took out a gold book from his arms, placed it on the table in front of Xu Hongji, and said: "Since the Duke has used all his wealth to express his loyalty, Your Majesty will not pretend that he does not know that this royal trading house The half-percent dried stock is a thank you gift from His Majesty, please don¡¯t dislike it, Mr. Guo!¡±
Looking at the gold book in front of him, Xu Hongji's face really wanted to look good or not. No one would be in a good mood if he exchanged millions of taels of silver for such half-percent shares, but this But it was the emperor's grace. It was not good not to look happy. This made Xu Hongji dumbfounded!
Li Jinzhong also knew what Xu Hongji was thinking. He calmly took the wine bottle from the maid's hand, filled it for himself and Xu Hongji, and then said earnestly: "My lord, please don't misunderstand that your majesty is stingy. Don't think this is only half-finished." dry shares, but this is an income of one million taels of silver a year. Among the nobles in Beijing, the only person who can get half of the dry shares is a British man!"
Xu Hongji was shocked when he heard this and asked quickly: "What did you say?"
Li Jinzhong smiled mysteriously, raised his thumb and said: "This is definitely what your Majesty is doing. I have shown my sincerity. How can your majesty give you a problem? Your Majesty will wait for three days. After three days, our family will guarantee that your Majesty will The haze in my heart is gone!"
Li Jinzhong¡¯s words made Xu Hongji more and more confused, but before he could ask again, Li Jinzhong waved his hand and said: ¡°Today we will only drink and eat vegetables. The rest will be revealed in three days!¡±
Seeing that Li Jinzhong had said this, Xu Hongji naturally couldn¡¯t ask further questions, so he drank with Li Jinzhong with full of questions!
After three rounds of wine and five delicious dishes, Li Jinzhong said goodbye with satisfaction. Of course, he also received a generous gift from Xu Hongji when he left. However, this generous gift was included in the public account by Li Jinzhong, and he did not keep any cents!
Seeing what Li Jinzhong did, Lu Qingping shuddered in his heart. He originally wanted to do some tricks when running a charity school, but now he no longer has any such thoughts!
The next morning, before dawn, there was a rouge shop belonging to the Duke of Wei on the bank of the Qinhuai River. Before the shopkeeper and the waiter got up, they were awakened by a rapid knock on the door!
The old shopkeeper Xu An didn't know what happened, so he hurried out to open the door. When he opened the door, he saw a young man in his twenties or seventeen years old with a somewhat honest appearance standing at the door. Behind him were three cars. A big car and a black-haired, black-eyed man!
Although Xu An is from the Duke of Wei's palace, he has been in Nanjing for decades and has long developed the habit of smiling when seeing people and not saying much. Therefore, although he did not know the people in front of him, he did not express it. Reveal malice!
"Young Master, why are you knocking on the door so early?" Xu An asked with his fists clasped, his expression indifferent but neither humble nor arrogant!
The young man at the head also clasped his fists in return, took out a bronze medal engraved with a dragon and a letter, and said: "Senior, I must beThis is the shopkeeper Xu of Nuanxiang Pavilion. I am Wang Shitou. Thanks to your majesty's grace, I am now the chief shopkeeper of the Royal Commercial Bank. This Nuanxiang Pavilion has been dedicated to your majesty by the Duke of Guo. I am here to receive it today. This is yours. The seal and the Young Master¡¯s autographed letter, please have Shopkeeper Xu check them! "
Shopkeeper Xu was so frightened that he almost flew out of his mind. He never expected that he would encounter such a thing. As a shopkeeper, he naturally didn't know about the memorial written by Xu Hongji to the emperor, but he had the seal and his own young master. The letter cannot be a liar even if you think about it!
However, out of caution, Shopkeeper Xu still cupped his fists and said, "Excuse me!"
Then he took the token and letter from Wang Shitou. After checking both sides, he confirmed that Wang Shitou's words were true. Then he returned the seal, received the letter himself, and saluted again: "It turns out that it's the shopkeeper Wang Da in person. I'm rude to you." Got it!"
Wang Shitou accepted the token, clasped his fists and said: "Don't dare! Don't dare! In the future, Nanjing's business on the ground will still depend on Shopkeeper Xu. Now, please ask Shopkeeper Xu to let the brothers work hard and move the goods in!"
Shopkeeper Xu naturally did not dare to neglect, called all the guys, and then followed Wang Shitou's instructions and carefully moved the goods from the three carts into the store!
What makes Shopkeeper Xu strange is that during the transportation, the fan seemed extremely nervous and kept asking people to be careful. Even the loading box had the words "handle with care" written on it!
Shopkeeper Xu was curious for a moment and asked Wang Shitou: "Shopkeeper, what does that fan do?"
Wang Shitou smiled and said: "His name is Weisman, and he is the overseas manager of our Royal Trading Company. In the future, all the goods exported to the West by our Royal Trading Company will be under his control!"
"That's it!" Shopkeeper Xu suddenly realized, and then asked: "Then what are these goods? Why do you need to be so careful?"
Wang Shitou did not explain this time. Instead, he smiled mysteriously and said, "You will know later!"
Shopkeeper Xu saw that Wang Shitou didn¡¯t say anything, so he didn¡¯t ask any more questions. After all the boxes on the cart outside the door were moved into Nuanxiang Pavilion, Wang Shitou ordered the boxes to be opened one by one according to the number!
When pieces of exquisite glassware and glass mirrors as clear as water were taken out of the wooden boxes, the well-informed shopkeeper Xu felt as if his throat was being strangled, and he even felt like he couldn't even breathe. difficulty!
Wang Shitou looked at Shopkeeper Xu with satisfaction and said with a smile: "These are the goods that our Royal Trading House will mainly sell in the future. These things are only available in our Royal Trading House!"
Shopkeeper Xu tremblingly stroked the glass products and murmured: "These are truly ingenious rare treasures. Nanjing is going to be lively this time!" (Remember this site's website address: www.hlnovel.com
