Chapter 196: Leading the Army for Fifty Days as a Sergeant
"How much is that?" Dongfang Yong asked casually without taking it to heart.
"One thousand gold!" Dongfang Bubai said. He was holding a small wine jug in his hand and turned the bottom of the jug upward. He didn't even pour a glass of wine, so he couldn't help but put the jug down heavily.
Dongfang Yong was shocked, one thousand gold was not a small amount, Dongfang Bubai threw it to him just like that.
But then Dongfang Yong thought about it, he threw so much money because he wanted to get what he wanted, so this was normal.
Dongfang Yong nodded to him and agreed.
"You need a military status now, and I will give you the title of sergeant major." Dongfang Bubai said.
"Sergeant? How big an officer is it?" Dongfang Yong asked, his eyes brightening slightly when he heard that he was offered an official position.
"Leading fifty troops, we call you sergeant-major!" Dongfang Bubai took another sip of wine and said.
This official was a bit small, so Dongfang Yong was not surprised, but he didn't show any dissatisfaction either, he just said oh.
"You come to the military headquarters tomorrow to confirm your identity."
"Tomorrow, maybe I don't have time."
"Why don't you have time?"
"Because the Imperial Bank will open tomorrow, and I am one of the shareholders, so of course I want to attend!" Dongfang Yong said.
"Shareholder? Why did the Dongfang family become yours? You brat really rebelled?" Dongfang Bubai laughed and scolded. "The Yang family girl came to invite me today, so just go tomorrow. You're done.
Finally, we must confirm our military status as soon as possible!"
"No, Grandpa, I am representing my shareholder status, and you are representing the Dongfang family's shareholder status, so the Dongfang family still wants you to go!" Dongfang Yong laughed quickly.
Dongfang Bubai rolled his eyes, unable to see the evil intentions of this brat, but in the end he nodded and said: "Okay, I will show off my face tomorrow. Sit down and let me have a drink!"
"
With that said, he took out another cup and filled it up for Dongfang Yong.
Dongfang Yong was stunned. In his memory, he was never allowed to drink at home. Why did the old man personally let him drink today? Although he had countless thoughts and some scruples in his heart, Dongfang Yong had never drank wine in this world, and he was not greedy for drinking in his previous life.
It’s a good wine, so I really want to drink it.
Dongfang Yong glanced at Dongfang Bubai, then picked up the wine glass. Dongfang Bubai also picked up the glass, clinked the glasses with Dongfang Yong, and drank it all in one gulp!
It can be seen that Dongfang Bubai's attitude towards Dongfang Yong has changed now, and he is as generous as drinking between friends!
Dongfang Yong also drank it in one gulp. Although he choked at the entrance, he still tasted the best wine!
Dongfang Bubai looked at his grandson. Although he had never drank alcohol before, the wine tasted good and he couldn't help laughing.
But Dongfang Yong felt a little dizzy at this moment. Dongfang Bubai's violent laughter made his head dizzy even more. Within three seconds, Dongfang Yong fell on the table with a thud and passed out drunk.
Dongfang Bubai's laughter stopped suddenly. He didn't expect his grandson to get drunk so easily. He pushed over and shouted twice, but he didn't wake up. Moreover, his face was extremely red, so he had to call out: "Shui Ling, come here.
A Yong is drunk, let someone take him back to the yard!"
After a while, Cui Shuiling and Ji Yue came over together, looked at Dongfang Yong lovingly, and found that he was really drunk. Ji Yue couldn't help but glared at Dongfang Bubai with an angry look, "You old shameless person"
Thing, how can you let Yong'er drink!"
"Then...well, let's send this brat back first!" Dongfang Bubai said with a smile.
"What a brat, he smells much better than you!" Ji Yue said dissatisfied.
"Yes, yes, madam!" Dongfang Bubai begged, and then looked at Cui Shuiling for help.
Cui Shuiling felt Dongfang Bubai's gaze, which made her feel funny and warm at the same time. She looked at Dongfang Yong and said to Ji Yue: "Sister, fortunately, water and wine do not contain mysterious energy, so he is just drunk.
Nothing else!"
Ji Yue breathed a sigh of relief, rolled her eyes at Dongfang Bubai, and said angrily: "This old guy is too picky about his drinking!"
Dongfang Bubai smiled.
Cui Shuiling said: "Sister, I'll take Yong'er back!" After saying that, he picked up Dongfang Yong.
Dongfang Bubai was stunned for a moment, then immediately picked up Dongfang Yong and said to Cui Shuiling, "I'll go!" Then he hugged Dongfang Yong and left.
Cui Shuiling was stunned. Ji Yue looked at the courtyard door and then at Cui Shuiling, and revealed with a smile: "This bad guy is thinking about the best of both worlds again!".
Cui Shuiling's face turned red!
…
When Dongfang Yong opened his eyes again, it was already the morning of the next day.
Dressed neatly, Dongfang Yong told Bing'er not to go to school and go to see the opening ceremony of the Imperial Bank together! Dongfang Yong also specially found Yu Doudou and asked her to go out with them arrogantly. Yu Doudou stayed in the house for so long
If you stay home for a long time, you will become a homebody.
In the end, Yu Doudou shyly agreed to Dongfang Yong.
When Dongfang Yong's carriage arrived at Baihu Street, he couldn't help but be shocked, because the whole street was full of people, most of them farmers from outside the city!
They were all talking about the Imperial Bank. Some people crowded in front of the Imperial Bank to take a look, and they all praised how grand and beautiful it was!
Because there were so many people coming, Zhijinwu had already dispatched several teams of people here to maintain order, so even though there were many people, the road could still pass the carriage!
When they arrived in front of the Imperial Bank, Dongfang Yong led the five girls out of the carriage, and then asked Bai Gu to put the carriage somewhere else. Don't take up space here!
Entering the Imperial Bank from the small door, Dongfang Yong was taken by a boy to meet Yang E!
Yang E was dressed very luxuriously and elegantly today, allowing Dongfang Yong to see the queen's style!
Several people went up to the second floor. After a while, a boy came to report that Prime Minister Yang had arrived. Yang E went downstairs to greet him. Dongfang Yong, thinking of his junior status, had no choice but to follow him.
When Prime Minister Yang saw Dongfang Yong, a strange color flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say anything.
He looked at the door that was still closed and asked, "E'er, isn't it open today? Why is the door still closed?"
Yang E smiled at her father like a girl and said: "Dad, the time has not come yet, and it is time to open the business when the time comes!"
“Oh, there’s also this particularity!”
"Well, this was all Dongfang Yong's idea. You also know that the Imperial Bank was all his idea!" Yang E smiled and praised.
Prime Minister Yang gave Yang E a meaningful look.
After a while, other officials came one after another, and Yang E invited them to drink tea in Guili's private room on the second floor!
The first floor is in a simple style, and the second floor is in a gorgeous style. It is very suitable to entertain guests on the second floor!
But soon Dongfang Yong was a little surprised, because there were more and more officials, ranging from small officials to high officials, at least a hundred people. Dongfang Yong asked Yang E to invite officials, but he didn't expect so many!
