Chapter 138 What serious illness does this boss have?
At this moment, Wang Fugui's breathing became rapid.
Since ancient times, agriculture, industry and commerce have always been the clear regulations of various dynasties. Although merchants have endless money and can live a good life, their status is still low.
If you can have an official position, there will be many benefits.
Not only will I be superior to others, but my future children will also be able to study.
You must know that the children of businessmen cannot even take the official examination.
But is this true?
He is not afraid of spending money, but he also doesn't want to be cheated. He immediately knows that this is a lot of money. This is his only worry.
"Master Li, why haven't I heard anyone say this?"
Li Xiuzhu laughed and shook his head after hearing this.
"Buying and selling officials, do you think this matter can be publicized? Although this world belongs to the Li family, it is not only His Majesty who has the final say, unless His Majesty wants to be a coward."
"It's normal for you to doubt whether it's true or not, but I'm not only the Minister of Industry, but also the son-in-law of the Prime Minister."
"Having these two identities here, how can I give you some confidence?"
"Since you are the first one, I don't need you to pay the money to buy the official position in one lump sum. You only need to pay half of it upfront."
"I believe you don't dare to borrow this money."
"As for your sincerity, I will leave it to you. I can give you two hours to consider the investigation. If Boss Wang is not willing after lunch, then I will find the next one."
Seeing what Li Xiuzhu said so clearly, Wang Fugui was silent for a moment and nodded immediately.
The name Li Xiuzhu seemed familiar to him before. As soon as Li Xiuzhu mentioned Prime Minister's Mansion, he immediately remembered Li Xiuzhu's identity.
"Sir, wait a moment, I will make some arrangements."
"What would you like to eat for lunch, sir? I'm paying for this meal."
Li Xiuzhu was not polite either.
“Just two special dishes are enough, not too much.”
Wang Fugui went out, and as soon as he went out, he ordered Liu Xi: "Prepare four dishes and one soup for Mr. Li. Please choose the best dishes and accompany him well."
Liu Xi quickly responded when he heard the words.
Wang Fugui then went downstairs. As soon as he got downstairs, he told the housekeeper on the side: "Go to Fu Mansion and investigate Li Xiuzhu's appearance."
"It's best to invite a servant over."
The housekeeper was startled, but he went to do it immediately.
Wang Fugui actually wanted to inquire about buying and selling officials, but Li Xiuzhu was right. Even if such a thing existed, it was impossible to talk about it openly.
Wang Fugui thought for a while and returned to Peony Pavilion.
Li Xiuzhu was stunned for a moment as soon as he entered. Did he think about it?
"Boss Wang, have you thought about it?"
Wang Fugui smiled when he heard this and said, "I would like to ask Master Li first about the price of this official position."
Li Xiuzhu nodded when he heard this and said: "From the ninth rank, the idle position is 50,000 taels, and the power is 80,000 taels. The ninth rank, the idle position is 70,000 taels, and the power is 100,000 taels."
"From the eighth grade, the idle position is one hundred thousand taels, and the powerful position is one hundred and thirty thousand taels."
"The eighth grade official has 130,000 taels for idle positions and 170,000 taels for powerful positions."
"From the seventh grade, the idle position is 150,000 taels, and the powerful position is 200,000 taels."
"Two hundred thousand taels for the seventh-grade official and idle positions, and 250,000 taels for the powerful positions."
I thought it would be expensive, but I never thought it would be this expensive.
If he buys a seventh-grade official position, he will have to spend half his life working on it.
Wang Fugui took a breath of cold air, stabilized his beating heart, and then asked Li Xiuzhu: "I wonder if Mr. Li has any recommendations?"
Li Xiuzhu heard this and said, "It depends on whether you want to be promoted and make a fortune, or whether you just want to gain a reputation as a businessman."
"If it's just for pleasure and future generations, then it's okay to work as a ninth-grade idler."
"If you want to get promoted and make a fortune, then you have to get a full-level position, and it's best to be sent abroad."
Wang Fugui understood immediately after hearing this.
This is a multiple-choice question, but not for him.
The son is just old enough to study. It would be a disservice to him to get an official position now. It would be better to send him to an academy to take the exam.
It's even less useful if you take it yourself.
Not to mention anything else, there are too many things to pay attention to when entering the officialdom. If you don't get it right, the fun will be over.
Wang Fugui thought for a while and asked Li Xiuzhu: "Sir, I just want an identity. Do you think there is any free official position?"
Li Xiuzhu didn't dislike the other party's purchase of a junior official. After hearing this, he thought about it and asked, "Are you literate?"
"Uh... I understand. I can understand the accounts, but I don't understand much."
"Honglu Temple sings praises, and the preface class can be suspended from the post."
"From a ninth-grade idle job, the price is also low."
Wang Fugui was startled when he heard this. He was actually in the lowest grade. He thought that Li Xiuzhu would arrange for him to be in the eighth grade.
It seemed like this guy wasn't trying to kill him.
Wang Fugui was about to agree, but he felt that the official position was too small, and children with such official positions would have to be bullied when they went to school.
Even if he couldn't have a big official position, he felt that he could still compete for it from the eighth rank.
After Wang Fugui made his decision, he asked: "Sir, do you think there is an eighth-grade idle job suitable for me?"
Eighth-grade? I have an idea, but there really is an eighth-grade.
"Mutual Market Supervisor? Choose one, Deputy Supervisor Sizhu, Deputy Supervisor of Gardens of Sinong Division, or Lingtai Lang?"
"But the eighth rank is actually quite embarrassing. If you are not short of money and want to have a decent official, I suggest you choose a supervisor from each garden of the seventh rank."
"But it's up to you to choose. It's all voluntary."
From the seventh grade? From the seventh grade idler, 150,000 yuan, to the eighth grade, 100,000 yuan, an extra 50,000 taels, it’s enough to buy an oiran.
But thinking about future generations, Wang Fugui gritted his teeth and decided to buy a seventh-grade one.
Although this level is also average, it is enough for his children to study hard and not be bullied.
Now let’s see if this person is real or fake.
Just when he was thinking this, there was a knock on the door.
Wang Fugui immediately opened the door and looked out, seeing a young man behind the shopkeeper and housekeeper.
"Sir, this is Li Si, the gatekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion."
Wang Fugui was overjoyed when he heard this. One of the gatekeepers must have met the prime minister's uncle.
"Come on, come in."
Li Si was startled after entering uneasily, and then hurriedly stepped forward to salute Li Xiuzhu and said, "Little Li Si, I have met my uncle."
Li Xiuzhu was startled. This was not his own doorman. When he looked at Boss Wang again, he understood immediately.
"Just listen to Boss Wang's question and go back after asking."
"Yes, uncle!"
At this moment Li Si understood that it was probably his uncle who called him, so I just said how do I know the boss of Zuixianlou.
Li Si came to Boss Wang and said, "Boss Wang, if you have anything to say, just ask."
Wang Fugui was startled, why are you asking this? I just want to prove that the man in front of me is the uncle of the Prime Minister.
"Well, has your lady eaten?"
???
Li Si looked at Wang Fugui with a question mark on his face, as if he was looking at a seriously ill person.
I am a janitor, so I don't know whether my lady has eaten or not.
But he really can't scold this person, nor can he say anything.
After looking at the sunlight on the window, Li Si said hesitantly, "I guess I haven't eaten yet."
"Well, that's good."
"Liu Xi, prepare a nice banquet and take it to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Tell Mr. Li that you bought it."
Liu Xi can't understand anymore? Is the owner under the spell? Why are you giving away so many dishes? We won't make any money anymore?
