Chapter 90 You can be my prime minister in the future

Yuchi Paulin was rich, and all the young people knew it.

After Li Shimin ascended the throne, he rewarded meritorious officials generously.

Yuchi Gong was even rewarded with the entire Prince Qi's Mansion.

Even all the gold, silver and jewelry in Prince Qi's palace were given to Yuchi Gong.

Several young men with the fifth surname and Qi Wang gathered together and whispered for a while.

Although they have a big family and a big business, they don't dare to waste the family without permission.

Starting from the previous dynasty, that is, from the beginning of the imperial examination, their fathers have been engaged in this kind of business.

Once a year, you can always make a fortune.

After some discussion, everyone finally accepted the bet made by Chang Sun Chong, Cheng Chumo and others.

When Li Gen tried to place more bets, he was rejected by them.

"This little brother, these odds are sky-high. The maximum bet is one hundred taels of gold."

Li Gen had no choice but to spread his hands.

Like the six sworn brothers, he also bet one hundred taels of gold.

The other party writes the contract and both parties sign and pledge it.

This provides the minimum guarantee.

Li Gen put away the contract and turned to leave, followed by Cheng Chumo and others.

Behind me came the snickering laughter of a group of disciples from the fifth and seventh surnames.

In their hearts, these seven hundred taels of gold have been firmly put into their wallets.

"Seventh brother, let's go to the restaurant to celebrate and congratulate seventh brother in advance for being named on the gold list."

Chu Mo put his arm around Li Gen's shoulder and said with a smile.

As for the betting matter, none of the six of them took it seriously.

Nowadays, with several shops and restaurants, the daily dividends are staggering.

One hundred taels of gold is really nothing.

"Brother Chu Mo, let's wait a moment, seventh brother just met a brother in the examination room."

"If it weren't for him, my seventh brother would almost not be able to find a seat. I made an agreement with him to go to a restaurant to have a drink together later."

After listening to Li Gen's words, Cheng Chumo said frankly.

"Hey, helping the seventh brother is equivalent to helping our brothers, don't you think?"

Changsun Chong, Fang Yiai, Du He and others all nodded in agreement.

While talking, Ma Zhou walked out of the door.

"Brother Ma."

Li Gen waved his hands enthusiastically.

Ma Zhou Jian walked over.

"Brother Ma, do you mind if we go have a drink together? When we get to Fulgen Restaurant, I will introduce them to you."

"Brother Li Gen, are you sure you want to go to Fulgen Restaurant? I can't afford it. Besides, I can't go into that kind of place. That place needs to be booked in advance."

When Ma Zhou heard it was Fugen Restaurant, the corners of his mouth twitched hard.

Even his friend, the lieutenant general Chang He, wanted to go to Fugen Restaurant day and night and have a good meal.

"Brother Ma, it's okay. We have a VIP card, so there is no need to make a reservation in advance. I will be your host today."

"So, Ma Zhou is really blessed today. Since my little brother is so cheerful, I, Ma Zhou, will naturally accompany him!"

The eight people rode their horses and left the imperial city.

Turn left out of Zhuque Gate, go all the way east, pass Shengyefang and Pingkangfang, and go a hundred steps forward to the front of Fugen Restaurant.

Zhao Si and Feng Wu at the door suddenly found the young master coming.

Come quickly to welcome him.

"This is my master's VIP card. No reservation is required, right?"

When Li Gen saw Zhao Si and Feng Wu coming out, he immediately spoke in front of them.

Zhao Si and Feng Wu, both very clever people, saw Ma Zhou next to the young master.

He immediately understood what the young master meant.

This is because I don’t want the person next to the young master to know that he is the owner of this restaurant.

"Everyone, please come in. Those who hold our VIP card will naturally not need to make a reservation or queue up."

Zhao Si bowed and invited everyone to enter the restaurant.

Feng Wuze quickly returned to the restaurant and informed Hongxiu and Tianxiang, as well as everyone in the restaurant.

Don't reveal the young master's identity.

Cheng Chumo, Changsun Chong and others also saw it.

The seventh brother didn't want to be frightened by the brother he had just met.

So I deliberately kept a low profile and concealed my identity.

"Brother, this table is the one closest to the window and the most open. What do you think?"

"Well, that's it!"

Li Gen nodded with satisfaction and said.

"I'm telling you, the shopkeeper, to serve all the dishes. Please bring the good tea and wine."

"Okay, gentlemen, please wait a moment."

Hongxiu and Tianxiang came with teapots and wine bottles with smiles on their faces.

Because Fulgen Restaurant has no rules about pouring tea and wine for guests.

Cheng Chumo glanced at Yuchi Baolin and Qin Huaidao, one of them poured tea and the other poured wine.

Despite Cheng Chumo's stupidity, Yuchi Baolin and Qin Huaidao especially liked to listen to Cheng Chumo's instructions.

The strong aroma of tea made Ma Zhou sniffle vigorously.

"Brother Ma, come on, let's drink tea first before the dishes are served!"

Li Gen said in a very considerate manner.

"Good tea! Really good tea!"

Ma Zhou narrowed his eyes happily.

“Here comes the spicy stir-fried bean sprouts!”

“A pot of mutton stew!”

“A portion of spicy fried chicken!”

“A plate of stir-fried lamb tripe!”

“Our restaurant’s new signature dish today is braised pork!”

As the waiter in the restaurant shouted.

A large table was quickly filled with delicious dishes that were full of color, flavor and flavor.

Li Gen took this opportunity to introduce Changsun Chong, Cheng Chumo, Fang Yiai and others to Ma Zhou one by one.

Ma Zhou's heart skipped a beat every time he introduced someone.

These are the sons of some of the most powerful officials in the dynasty!

Judging from the expressions of the six of them, the identity of this person named Li Gen is even more extraordinary.

And why did he still take part in the imperial examination?

Just when Ma Zhou was filled with doubts, a voice sounded.

"Brother Ma, come on, raise your glass. After drinking this glass of wine, we will be friends."

Li Gen picked up the wine glass, smiled and said.

"Master Li, Ma Zhou has a low status. I am grateful to you for being so considerate of him. However, due to his status, Ma Zhou does not dare to reach out to this friend!"

"Brother Ma, I really don't like to hear what you are saying. What are you talking about? If I had the same thoughts as you, I would have these six sworn brothers. All six uncles are high-ranking officials in the court.

My father is just a seventh-grade county magistrate!"

"Brother Ma, your heaven is full and your official career is smooth. Although you failed in the imperial examination this time, you will definitely become the prime minister in the future!"
