"How could I agree immediately? It's not my family that's involved. The grain we use to make wine is always bought from the granary of Duke Ningguo's mansion.
If we lower the price, the purchasing price of the grain will have to be lowered. Can the Duke of Ningguo agree to this?
Your Majesty, don’t be too naive, what are the intricate connections? No one can cut this off with just one word, otherwise why has the Emperor been restrained from the time he ascended the throne to now?"
Xu Guogong looked at Xiao Yu angrily.
"If the prince doesn't give me time, then I have nothing else to say. Even if my prince gives me a new father, I can't lower the price right away. I have to negotiate with other aristocratic families!"
"My lord, it's not good! There's a fire in the east courtyard!"
Just as Xu Guogong loudly rejected Xiao Yu, a panicked voice floated in from outside. Then, right at the door of Xu Guogong's study, the voice panted and said: "Master Guo, it's not good, there is a fire in the east cross courtyard.
There was such a big fire that the old Duke was burned. There was a panic over there. They all said that the Duke was burned, but they could not find him."
After the voice fell, Xiao Yu smiled and said: "Changing dad, the first step."
"you!"
Xu Guogong was walking towards the door in a hurry, but when he heard this, he was shocked and angry, and turned to glare at Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows, "You chose your own father. I have always been close to the people and served the people well. Whether your father can keep up this tone depends on whether you are filial or not. This fake father is on his way here."
"Xiao Yu!" Xu Guogong gritted his teeth, "You are so domineering, so you are not afraid..."
Xiao Yu stood up leisurely, the cynicism on his face faded away, and he only showed his ruthlessness vividly, "If I were afraid, I would not come! I ask you again, do you want to reduce the price or change the father?"
"My lord, it's not good. There's a fire in the backyard. It's such a big fire that it burned the old lady's side."
Xu Guogong's eyelids twitched.
Xiao Yu lost his patience.
"Peace~"
As soon as the three words came out, they were like a reminder. Xu Guogong was so excited that he said, "I surrender!"
Safety:......
Why do I feel that something is not right with so many things?
This... am I as scary as a ghost?
Xu Guogong:......
Are you like a ghost?
Ghosts are not as scary as you!
Safety:......
After swallowing, Xu Guogong said: "I'll lower the price. It's okay to lower the price, but the price cannot be lowered just by giving an order. The scope involved is indeed too wide."
The fierceness on Xiao Yu's face dissipated layer by layer almost at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he returned to his previous cynicism.
"It doesn't matter. You are only responsible for ordering all your wineries to adjust their prices. I will give you a clear price list on how to adjust them."
Pingan took out a cowhide envelope and slapped the envelope on the table.
Xu Guogong took a look.
Xiao Yu said: "You just need to ensure that after the price adjustment of your wine shop, you can strictly follow this price. As for the rest, I will arrange it.
If you are obedient, your wine shop can still make a lot of money for you. If you are disobedient, your father, I, will prepare it for you. Let me say hello whenever you want!"
Coming out of Duke Xu's Mansion, Xiao Yu whistled refreshedly. Halfway through the whistle, he paused with a look of disgust and glanced at the three corpses parked at the door of Duke Xu's Mansion. It smelled like this on a hot day~
"When the prices of all the drinks at Xu Guogong's place are reduced, this one will be taken away and dealt with."
Ping An followed and took a look at the corpse over there.
Tsk~
Xiao Yunqian seemed to be covered in maggots and were squirming.
Xiao Yunqian, who was proud and arrogant when he was alive and loved beauty so much, doesn't know if his soul knows that he has become such a virtuous person after death.
Therefore, people, please do not do evil. Even if you do evil, you must avoid their prince.
"Master, if Xu Guogong has agreed, can it really be done? He must discuss it with other aristocratic families."
Xiao Yu sneered, "Isn't this good? Otherwise, why should we break up the collusion within the family? It is never external forces that can destroy everything!"
"Asshole!"
"brute!"
"douchebag!"
"rogue!"
As soon as Xiao Yu left, the furious Xu Guogong picked up the objects in the study and smashed them one by one, then cursed.
He cursed hysterically.
I stood on one side with my eyelids twitching.
Eighty taels!
Fifty taels~
One hundred and twenty taels......
"My lord, please stop smashing it. We all bought this with our own money. We still have to spend money to buy it again after smashing it. The price of drinks has been reduced, but the price of vases has increased recently."
Xu Guogong almost spit out a mouthful of blood.
The personal attendant added: "The house was badly burned, and it will cost money to renovate it."
Xu Guogong:......
After all, I couldn't hold on.
Gudong.
A mouthful of blood spurted out.
"Take care, Mr. Guo. The old Mr. Guo is so burned that he is unconscious. Nothing will happen to you. If something happens to you, who will lower the price of the drinks~"
Gudong~
Xu Guogong vomited out another mouthful of blood.
"Shut the hell up!"
"Loyalty is offensive to my ears, my lord!"
If Xu Guogong had some strength at this time, he would slap this piece of shit to death!
"Go and invite Mr. Ning Guo!" Sitting down on the chair, Mr. Xu Guogong waved his hands and gave the order weakly.
The attendants were suspicious, "Do you want to discuss with Duke Ning Guo? Duke Ning Guo will definitely not agree to let us lower the price of drinks, but when the time comes, the King of Nanhuai will cause trouble for us, not Duke Ning."
"Go if I tell you to!" Xu Guogong raised his foot and kicked him.
I had no choice but to take the order and leave.
But a moment later, Ning Guogong arrived with an angry look on his face.
"It's simply too much. It's too much. This reputation of Xiao, just because his princess can make wine, is like controlling the up and down wine? Who does he think he is! How can he shake the centuries-old foundation of our family!
Never agree!"
Ning Guogong's beard was trembling with anger, and he was filled with righteous indignation.
Xu Guogong had wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and took a sip of the ginseng soup. "But if you don't agree, you have also seen it. How to deal with the three corpses at the door? Now Xiao Yu has identified me and only wants to cause trouble for me.
Anyone can say such high-sounding words, and anyone can scold them, but it is our Duke Xu’s government who must bear the consequences.
But the consequences were not caused by me alone.
The fake Xiao Jiyuan at that time was recommended to me by Ning Guogong."
Ning Guogong raised his eyebrows with a look of disbelief on his face, "Are you blaming me? You fell into Xiao Yu's plan to alienate each other. He really wants us to be suspicious of each other!
Or are you threatening me?"
"I don't dare to threaten, I'm just telling the truth. Once I succeeded in setting up this fake Xiao Jiyuan, we would all share the benefits. But now that it has failed, I, Duke Xu, should not bear the consequences alone."
