If five thousand guan were exchanged for copper coins, it could crush someone to death!
Zhu Zhixian worked hard for three years to scrape the land, but only got 2,000 yuan!
After Ximen Qing staged such a large-scale battle in Qinghe County and ransacked the house of his father-in-law, the lone thief Killer Bee, he only had 10,000 yuan to spare.
With more than twenty dollars, Qiaoer and Xiaocui can open a Xishi tofu shop that is not too shabby!
Even in a place like Bianliang City, five thousand coins can be used to open a restaurant. Although it is not as good as Fengle Tower, it is still a three-story restaurant, not a roadside tavern.
Ten years of profit from a herbal medicine shop! Put it on the market, and you can earn back 5,000 guan in less than half a year.
This deal is worth it!
Liang Le gave the condition of five thousand gu, and felt that if he were Ximen Qing, he should seriously consider selling it in other places; as long as it did not disrupt the market in Bianliang, Tokyo, Liang Le felt that it was acceptable.
Now, Liang Le's price has been put out, and he is just waiting for Ximen Qing's response. Liang Le thinks that he can take away 40 to 50% of the business of the other 35 regular stores, or more.
It was just a few breaths, and Liang Le felt that an unknown amount of time had passed. He took two deep breaths secretly to calm down his emotions, and then asked: "Master Ximen, what do you think?"
Ximen Qing smiled slightly and did not respond to Liang Le. Instead, he asked Lin Lingsu: "What does the Taoist think? Is five thousand strings worth it?"
Just when Liang Le shouted out five thousand strings, Lin Lingsu's expression changed, but she immediately returned to normal.
When Ximen Qing asked him, Lin Lingsu also smiled slightly, touched the fly whisk and said: "I only seek the advancement of Taoism and Dharma, what do worldly things have to do with me? Since we met today, it is nothing more than for both parties."
Just be a witness."
Although she said so much, Lin Lingsu didn't think so in her heart.
If you give yourself these five thousand strings, how many things can you do!
Although Lin Lingsu was favored by the officials at the moment, she could only collect a few hundred dollars in reward money. Although she was rewarded with a large Shangqing Baolu Palace, she could not generate any money.
If you want to carry forward your own Shenxiao sect, you have to slowly build the Shenxiao Yuqing Wanshou Palace in various places, and you also have to attack Buddhism. If you want to be effective, you have to spend money like water?
In fact, Lin Lingsu said that she came to Fengle House for a drink today, so she had no intention of getting some sponsorship from Liang Le.
Seeing Lin Lingsu say this, Ximen Qing still smiled slightly, turned to Liang Le and said: "Master Liang, if I want to buy the entire Fengle Building, how much will it cost?"
Liang Le's expression suddenly changed, he raised his body and rebuffed flatly: "Fengle Building is where Liang worked hard for half his life, how can he sell it at will!" It is also where my hard work is?" Ximen Qing laughed and said: "How can it be?
What’s the point of selling casually?”
Liang Le was not angry after hearing this. Instead, he smiled and said, "That's not what you said, Mr. Daguan. If you are a newbie here, you may not know that there are thirty-six main stores in Bianliang. Apart from this, there is no other one with the same
"You sold me the recipe for the right to make wine. Do you think you can open a shop to sell wine in Bianliang?"
At this point, Liang Le's face sank: "I'm afraid that the day we open the store, the government will close it down!"
Ximen Qing laughed and stood up, making a gesture of seeing off guests: "Since the host can't agree, that's all. The so-called business is not done, so I won't send you off!"
"Perhaps you think you can find one among the thirty-six main stores to compete with Fengle Lou." Liang Le saw that Ximen Qing was unwilling to continue talking, but he did not turn around and leave. Instead, he thought for a while and said: "To tell you the truth.
, it’s about the brewing rights, no store is willing to cooperate with you.”
"Do you know how difficult it is for a government to obtain the right to brew wine? How much does it cost every year? No matter what conflicts there are between the thirty-six stores, they must be unanimous in dealing with this kind of thing. It is not easy for a high-ranking official to live in Bianliang!
"
Ximen Qing put down his hand and played with the thunder stone, and said with a smile: "The poster is speechless. Since Xiaoke has come to Bianliang, he naturally wants to stay for a long time. When the new store opens, I want to be the owner of the thirty-six main stores.
Naturally, the owner of Banliang House is also among them."
"Then I'll be waiting for the good news." Liang Leyang said this strangely, and ordered the waiter outside the door: "All the consumption here tonight will be accounted for in my account, and it will be a blessing for the high officials!"
"Mr. Tongzhen, let's go upstairs and look at the scenery and take our time."
Facing Liang Le's invitation, Lin Lingsu turned a deaf ear and remained motionless as if nails were driven into her feet.
Liang Le felt slightly strange and followed Lin Lingsu's gaze to see the mutton-fat jade pendant that Ximen Qing was playing with in his hand.
"Mr. Tongzhen, is there anything else you want to talk to Mr. Ximen?"
Faced with Liang Le's inquiry, Lin Lingsu seemed to break free from some thoughts and retracted her gaze as if nothing had happened: "The host will just lead the way."
When the two of them went out, they happened to catch up with the waiter carrying plates stacked high.
"Ten portions of wine, vinegar and meat delivered!"
The tense atmosphere in the house just now made Mustache, who came to the door but did not dare to come in, secretly wiped his sweat. Seeing Liang Le come out with an unhappy face, Mustache stepped out of the way, and this time followed the waiter in to help set the dishes.
.
?But it smells very good. Why have you never heard of this kind of transparent wine?"
Over there, when Sun Erniang saw that they were actually served with ten portions of wine, vinegar and meat, she felt a little embarrassed to come and said, "Master, this..."
"No matter what, the landlord said it would be charged to his account, so what are you afraid of?" Ximen Qing laughed loudly: "That helper picked out the best and most expensive things in Fengle House for us!"
Although Jiang Jing, the master fortune teller, was also happy, after all, the owner managed to crowd out the other party with just a few words, but to be honest, he was a little worried about opening the store.
If you offend Liang Le, you will offend several restaurants represented by him. If you really go to Kaifeng Mansion to file a complaint, even if you have the position of Imperial City Secretary, it will not be so easy to deal with.
I really hadn’t considered the issue of brewing rights before.
Jiang Jing frowned slightly when he thought of this. Mustache and the guys from Fengle Building were busy working in front of him, so it was difficult to explain clearly.
This expression fell into Ximen Qing's eyes. He smiled slightly, picked up the glass and said, "What is Mr. Jiang thinking about? He couldn't be thinking about the future. He picked it up and said, "My boss, it seems that this first step is not going well."
"Who said that?" Ximen Qing squinted his eyes and smiled like a fox: "Isn't this very smooth? On the first day here, the owner of Fengle Tower personally paid for the treat. Shouldn't you, the accountant, be happy?"
Seeing Ximen Qing's expression, Jiang Jing immediately knew that he was a little too worried.
What is the role of my boss?
In Qinghe County, it was so chaotic that even my father-in-law’s family was confiscated.
Not to mention that they were so successful in Liangshan that even the big leader Chao Gai, the King of Pagoda, obeyed his advice. Song Jiang and Wu Yong died and escaped.
No matter what kind of ruthless character he is, he has no choice but to hold up the white flag when meeting his boss!
Thinking of this, the divine fortune teller Jiang Jing's brows widened and he shouted to Mustache: "Fengle Tower's lamb tongue sticks, three delicacies, and other delicious signature dishes are here!"
The mustache raised his thumb and said: "This accountant knows Fengle Lou very well. The sheep's tongue sticks and Sanzhenxiu here are among the best in Bianliang City. I will tell the waiter now."
"But I want to order a few meaty dishes for my second brother and the others." Ximen Qing interrupted: "Maybe the food at Fengle Restaurant is okay, but the portion is small."
Mustache agreed wholeheartedly, and went down to order the waiter to serve the food. Anyway, Liang Le had the final say, no matter what was ordered in this private room, there was no need to say a penny.
Ximen Qing still knows about things like "荍".
That's actually sashimi.
But in Bianliang more than 900 years ago, what kind of fish could be eaten as sashimi?
Ximen Qing is more looking forward to the three delicacies than the lamb tongue lottery.
Fish head puff pastry is Ximen Qing’s favorite, but it doesn’t stop him from eating three delicacies.
Without waiting too long, the lamb tongue pickles and three delicacies were brought to the table, as well as several other dishes, which indeed looked meaty.
But in Bianliang City, you can't eat beef in places like Fengle Tower.
Mutton is the meat that rich people like nowadays, and it can also show their status.
However, Ximen Qing is really not a fan of mutton. If he eats too much, he feels that the unique smell of mutton will almost come over him, even if his clothes are fragrant.
Pork and beef are better.
Jiang Jing is more interested in mutton tongue sticks. In this dish, mutton tongue is cut into shreds and processed separately with fish paste. Finally, the fish paste is wrapped in mutton tongue, coated in flour, coated with egg paste, and fried in lard.
, it looks like a lotus in full bloom on the plate.
"This is the taste." Jiang Jing took one and chewed it carefully in his mouth. He couldn't help but sigh: "Since I left Bianliang last time, I have never had such a good taste again."
Ximen Qing sneered at the comparison, it was just fried meat rolls, how could they be made into flowers?
However, this bowl of three delicacies really aroused Ximen Qing's interest.
The meat slices are very tender, and the three different shades of color and completely different textures indicate that this bowl of sashimi comes from three different kinds of fish.
No wonder it’s called Sanzhenxiang.
Ximen Qing gently picked up a piece of meat and looked at the candlelight. He could actually see the knife skills through the light, and the fish was sliced into pieces as if they were pieces of paper.
“It’s a shame there’s no mustard.”
Ximen Qing felt regretful, put the piece of meat into his mouth and chewed it slowly, and a unique taste of sea fish burst out in his mouth!
