Chapter 9 The Weird Boss
Looking at the ethnic minorities or foreigners coming and going, Li Jiancheng felt like he was in the present. "Hey! It's better not to think too much. Now in this world, with parents and brothers, what else is there to be dissatisfied about? Do you want to go back to that world?
Alone?" He shook his head and didn't think about that. He didn't know if these people could speak Chinese, and it would be terrible if he didn't know what he meant.
After searching for a while, I finally found glass products in a store. When I walked in, I saw only a boss and two employees. However, Li Jiancheng was very puzzled. After looking for a while, why didn't anyone come to him?
"Boss, don't you sell anything?" Li Jiancheng asked the man who looked like the boss strangely.
"Kid, this is not the place you should be here," the boss said impatiently. Li Jiancheng was dizzy! It turned out that he was young and thought he was here to play.
"Boss, I'm here to buy something." Li Jiancheng said angrily.
"I'm sorry, sir, I'm here to buy something. What do you like?" The boss's face immediately changed. It was indeed the nature of a businessman.
"What I want is something like this..." Li Jiancheng made gestures for a long time, but the boss didn't understand. So Li Jiancheng asked the boss to bring a piece of paper and draw the wine-making equipment. The boss told Li Jiancheng that he didn't have such a thing, but he could customize one.
So Li Jiancheng asked the boss to make one for him, then left a deposit and left. He felt uncomfortable seeing the boss's face for a while.
"Hey! Society has progressed, but it's a pity that people's thoughts and morals are still bad. Businessmen are all based on profit. I don't know if this is the tragedy of the world or the tragedy of mankind." Li Jiancheng thought silently.
Continuing to walk aimlessly in the city, now that the equipment for making wine has been found, as long as he finds the shop and makes the wine, everything is done. Suddenly Li Jiancheng's eyes lit up and he saw a notice posted on the wall.
, and what was written on the notice was exactly the hotel he needed. After looking at the address on the notice, Li Jiancheng quickly went there. When he came to a place in the west of the city that was neither prosperous nor deserted, he saw a four-story hotel.
There were quite a lot of people coming and going in the restaurant, so Li Jiancheng was curious as to why the boss wanted to sell the restaurant. Li Jiancheng walked into the restaurant with doubts. Probably because he was a child, no one came to ask him what he was doing here.
Well, it seemed like he had to ask it himself. He walked to the counter and knocked on the clerk. He finally looked at Li Jiancheng, and he was much better than the owner of the store in front of him.
"Kid, what's the matter with you?" the clerk asked gently. But it made him helpless. Unfortunately, his helplessness still couldn't change the fact that he was a child.
"I wonder where your boss is? I have something to ask him." Li Jiancheng asked.
"There." The clerk might be a little confused about finding the boss at such a young age, but he hesitated for a while and pointed to a door on the north side of the first floor. Li Jiancheng said thank you to him and walked over.
When I walked in, I saw that this place is quite nice. There are rockeries, flowing water, and flowers in bloom. The living environment is also quite good. After a closer look, it turns out that the house I live in is a house next to the restaurant, and the two are connected through the door.
One family is a restaurant and the other is a bedroom. It seems that the boss is a very smart person. It seems that it will be difficult to buy a house later.
"Hey! Children, are you here alone? Where are the adults in your family?" At this time, there was a man in his forties, wearing gorgeous clothes and a little fat. When Li Jiancheng saw this man, he must be the boss.
"May I ask if you are the boss?" Li Jiancheng asked.
"Haha, children talk just like adults. Yes, I am the boss." The boss smiled first and then returned.
"It's like this. My son is planning to open a restaurant. I saw you wanted to take action here, so he asked me to come to the boss to discuss it." In order not to expose himself, Li Jiancheng said it was his son who needed it.
"I wonder who your young master is." the boss asked cautiously.
"General Zhu Guo, the young master of the Duke of Tang Dynasty." Li Jiancheng answered.
"It turns out to be Young Master Li, whom I have admired for a long time! If Young Master Li needs it, I will sell it to you at the best price." The boss was so impressed. Whether he has heard of it or not is another matter.
It’s good to have a background! With just such a name, people can sell it at a preferential price. “So, boss, at what price do you plan to sell it?” Li Jiancheng asked.
"20,000 taels, I want cash." the boss said.
"What? 20,000 taels, you might as well grab it, this is the best deal? 8,000 taels, do you want to sell it?" Li Jiancheng counter-offered.
"This little brother, if you pay 8,000 taels, we won't be able to get even the original cost of the store. 18,000 taels is already a very good deal," the boss said, wiping the sweat from his face.
"Boss, I think there must be some reason why you are so anxious to take action. Hehe." Li Jiancheng said with a dark smile, "9,000 taels, our young master doesn't have much to offer."
The boss's heart trembled. If he knew the reason for his eagerness to take action, it might be even worse. So he reluctantly shouted: "15,000 taels, if it's less, there's no way to sell it." The boss pretended to be in pain.
For Li Jiancheng, who was used to this kind of bargaining in his previous life, it was a piece of cake. "10,000 taels, whether to sell it or not. If not, I can only go back and explain to the young master." So he turned around and looked like he was leaving.
"Wait!" Sure enough, the boss was anxious, "11,000 taels, if you agree, I will sell it, otherwise I would rather not sell it."
"Okay, deal." Li Jiancheng lowered his head and thought for a moment before agreeing. At the same time, he was very happy. This restaurant definitely cost more than 11,000 taels. But why is the boss so anxious to take action? If you don't understand, you don't want to think about it. Anyway, let's get the store first.
"Well, sir, please hurry up and ask your young master to take the money to sign a document. This restaurant and this room will belong to your young master." The boss seemed to be relieved.
"What?" Li Jiancheng was surprised.
"Is there any problem?" the boss asked doubtfully.
"No, no". Holy shit, I made a lot of money this time. I originally thought there was only one restaurant, but I didn't expect it was even in this room. It seems there must be something wrong, otherwise the boss wouldn't be so cheap. But now that the restaurant is available, why?
Let’s talk about it then.
Li Jiancheng hurriedly ran back and took out all the jewelry buried under the floor. He saw a few items, one was an jade necklace, one was an jade ring, and the other was an jade Buddha statue. I don’t know if these three items were sold.
Enough. Seeing that Li Shimin was not there, he rushed out again. As soon as he reached the door, he heard a voice coming from behind and ran away quickly.
"Huh! Brother came back and ran out without taking me with him. I will settle the score with him when he comes back." Li Shimin said breathlessly at the door. Under the watch of the guards at the door, he had no choice but to go back to his room.
Went.
"Boss, I want to pawn something like this, but I don't know how many taels I can pawn." Li Jiancheng took out the jade necklace and asked the boss.
The boss didn't care much at first because I was a child, then his eyes lit up when he saw the ring on my hand, but then dimmed again. Hehe! There is a way.
"Kid, I think the color of this ring is not very good, okay! How about I give you 5,000 taels?" The boss pretended to think for a while and quoted a price. However, Li Jiancheng knew that it must be more than this price, because the boss's eyes suddenly lit up just now.
Suddenly, Li Jiancheng, who had been watching him, saw it.
"Look, it's too little. I'd better go check it out elsewhere." Li Jiancheng also pretended to hesitate for a moment, and then said.
Suddenly a waiter closed the door, and the boss smiled sinisterly at me: "Hey, kid! Where did you get such a precious item at your age? It couldn't be stolen. I think if I report it to the official
, you just...of course if you sell it at a low price..."
It turned out that the boss had this idea, and Li Jiancheng thought he was going to cheat and kill people. This would make it easier to talk. Li Jiancheng also smiled at the boss, took out a jade pendant from his arms and gave it to the boss. The boss took it and looked at it, and his face instantly changed.
His eyes turned completely white, and his whole body was trembling. Then he grabbed Li Jiancheng's hand and shouted: "Uncle, I don't know Mount Tai because I don't know that I am from the Duke of Tang Dynasty. Please forgive me." It turns out that this jade pendant has written on it.
It was the Duke of Tang's palace, and as a young master, of course he had identity documents, and the guards also had tokens, but it was different. The boss thought that Li Jiancheng was a servant of the Duke of Tang, so he begged for mercy. If he knew that Li Jiancheng was a servant of the Duke of Tang,
The eldest son of the palace would probably faint from fear; and the clerk who closed the door was also so frightened that his legs went weak and he knelt down.
"Ahem, he who doesn't know is not guilty." Seeing that the boss just wanted to buy this thing at a low price, Li Jiancheng didn't think about murder and robbery, so he didn't embarrass him too much. "This ring was given to me by our young master.
I'm here to pawn it, so boss, you can decide the price yourself..." Li Jiancheng said with a dark smile, "Feng Shui is really changing!"
"I think this ring is of good color and can be sold for a good price, 20,000 taels, is that okay?" the boss asked timidly.
"What? 20,000 taels, which is a lot lower than the estimate in my mind! It seems that the name of Tang Guogong is valuable again!" Li Jiancheng thought to himself, pretended to think for a while, nodded, and saw the boss and the waiter secretly
Wiped his forehead. "But, our young master doesn't want anyone to know that he pawned things, so you know what to do."
"You know how to do it." The boss nodded quickly. If people knew that he robbed Tang Guogong's mansion, he would not know how he died, and how could he be so stupid as to say it. In fact, Li Jiancheng didn't know the price of the ring either.
It's really worth the price, but the boss bought it at this price, so he probably didn't make much profit.
At Li Jiancheng's instruction, the boss took two boxes, each containing 100 gold bars. Each gold bar was worth 100 taels of silver, which was exactly 20,000 taels. The boss asked two guys to hold the boxes and follow Li Jiancheng. When they arrived at the hotel,
, when they came to the house where the boss lived, the two guys put down their things and left quickly. Li Jiancheng took one box of gold bars to the boss, and then took 10 gold bars from another box to the boss. When the boss saw
After receiving the gold bars, he took out a receipt, pressed his fingerprints, and asked Li Jiancheng to also press his fingerprints. One share for each person, and the restaurant belongs to him! After seeing Li Jiancheng pressing his fingerprints, the boss breathed a sigh of relief, as if he was relieved, and Li Jiancheng just
When I wanted to ask questions, I heard a sound coming from the door.
