My father-in-law is Kangxi
Chapter 1106 Revealing Wealth
Because of the mosquito repellent, both of them smelled delicious. When they came back, they called for water and washed it again.
As for tomorrow's guests, let's talk tomorrow.
Neither of those two were born in Baoyi, and they couldn't reach their side either.
Sesame cold noodles for lunch.
Just after eating here, Cui Baisui came over, it was the fourth elder brother and the fifth elder brother.
Brother Jiu went to the front yard.
The two elder brothers both have errands, maybe they are on duty in the garden today?
In the living room in the front yard, the fifth elder brother was wiping his face with a wet towel, and told the little eunuch, "Go to the dining room to see if there is iced watermelon, if there is, cut the melon, if not, any mung bean soup or sour plum soup will do."
This is my younger brother's house, so I don't need to pretend.
The little eunuch went down in response.
Fifth elder brother unbuttoned his collar and sleeves again, and wiped his neck twice with a towel.
Seeing that the fourth elder brother was not moving, he asked curiously, "Are you not hot, fourth elder brother?"
The fourth elder brother only wiped his forehead and said, "It's okay."
The fifth elder brother ignored him.
In dog days, whoever is hot will know.
Turn around and cover the prickly heat all over your body, so you won't be stubborn.
Brother Nine came in and said, "It's a hot day, why are you two here at this time? Have you eaten, do you want some padding?"
The fifth elder brother said: "After eating, I'm hungry too, let's take a bite if there is something ready."
Brother Jiu ordered Cui Baisui: "Order two servings of cold noodles at the dining room."
Cui Baisui went down to spread the word.
The little eunuch came in with sour plum soup and a fruit plate.
The fifth elder brother drank sour plum soup and ate four pieces of watermelon before he felt a bit cooler, panting for breath.
Because the people in this yard are old, young, women, and weak, there is no ice basin.
So the fifth elder brother is a little uncomfortable.
It took only a while to wipe off the sweat on my head, and there was a fine layer.
Seeing this, brother Jiu asked someone to go to the ice cellar to get ice.
The fifth elder brother shook his fan, looked at the ninth elder brother and said, "Have you received the post from the foreign official?"
Ninth elder brother sat down next to fourth elder brother, nodded and said: "Two are accepted, one is a distant relative who turned the corner from the Dutong Mansion, and the other is an unknown relative."
The fifth elder brother said angrily: "What kind of relative? They want to take advantage of you!"
Confused, Ninth Brother was a little confused and looked at Fourth Brother.
The fourth elder brother frowned and said, "Don't you understand the reason why wealth is not revealed? You are the first to buy Gao Bisheng's things. The market price is twice as high, and there will be more people thinking about you."
Brother Jiu almost jumped up when he heard this.
"Absurd? I buy medicine because I need it. There are priceless ones in the market. When I catch up with them, I quickly keep them. Do I want some messy things?"
There are a lot of officials from other places coming to Beijing to report on their work, and this is not a grocery store here, and they accept everything.
The fourth elder brother said: "Do you also use Sanqi?"
Brother Nine: "..."
It is not used for anything, everyone knows that it is used for trauma.
If I don't go to the army, I don't think there will be any chance of trauma in my life.
"I asked Gao Bisheng about the soil instrument that Gao Bisheng brought back to Beijing. He mentioned two things. I can't pick and choose, so I have all of them. I plan to share them when my elder brother, seventh brother, and my father-in-law celebrate their birthdays. , Tianshouli..."
Ninth brother said his plan.
Among the people he knew, not many had connections with the military.
These three people gave one catty each, and Le Fengming made the remaining two catties into powder for the guards and military guards in the mansion.
The fifth elder brother disapproved: "You still pay a high price for things you don't need, what a prodigal!"
He felt that it was a waste, and it was not something to eat or drink, so he said: "If someone gives you something, don't ask for it. How much money is enough to spend it if you are not so extravagant? More than 1000 taels of silver, and you can spend it if you say it. .”
The fourth elder brother felt a headache, shook his head and said: "Where is there a birthday gift to give medicinal materials?"
This implication is too unlucky, like cursing people to get sick.
Brother Jiu thought about it, nodded and said: "Then it's not a birthday gift, it's the same for Mid-Autumn Festival."
As he said that, he became curious, and said: "Didn't you just buy two medicinal materials, why did it spread?"
These Eight Banners old and young masters, there is no other news to chew their tongues?
The fifth elder brother shook his head and said, "I don't know, but some people said that some people estimated how much money you made from selling land in Xiaotangshan, and they all talked about two or three million taels."
The fourth elder brother rubbed his temples, and said: "Because of you, the prices of these two medicinal materials in Beijing have increased. Many people have inquired about the efficacy of Dendrobium dendrobium, and they have also inquired around."
Brother Jiu couldn't help being dumbfounded when he heard this, and said: "There is still looting for this medicine? Then the people who want to use it seriously can't buy it, what should I do?"
The fourth elder brother glared at him and said, "What should I do? There is no way!"
Brother Jiu is really a little uneasy.
If it really delayed other people's medical treatment, whose fault would it be?
Like he was wrong.
The fifth elder brother heard the disadvantages, and told the ninth elder brother: "If you want to buy it in the future, it is still in the accompanying market, don't raise the price."
Brother Jiu nodded hurriedly.
He was willing to give the money for peace of mind, thinking that he would not cause trouble.
Forgetting to follow the example will bring other troubles.
The fourth elder brother looked at him and said: "The foreign official sent you a post, it should be to ask about these two medicinal materials, you can transfer some according to your purchase price as appropriate."
Those who have the courage to go directly to the prince's gate are all high-ranking officials who know the rules, and if there is no urgent need, they will not commit this taboo.
Brother Nine was surprised and said, "Did you come to me to buy things? Didn't you bring an earthen instrument to sell me?"
The fourth elder brother said: "Bring the name of Tuyi to come to the door, so that I can mention other things, otherwise, it would be impolite to come directly to the door to ask for medicine."
Second-rank officer, who is short of a few silver coins?
Knowing that Brother Jiu has the problem of intercepting purchases, he should avoid Brother Jiu, so why would he take the initiative to deliver it to his door?
Now that you have come, there is a reason why you have to come.
Nothing but medicine.
Brother Jiu couldn't help being annoyed after hearing this, and said: "I thought it was some kind of relative, I asked someone to leave a post, and asked them to come over tomorrow, if I had known about this earlier, I would have just returned the post."
Although he likes economic things, he is not a businessman, nor is he interested in doing business directly.
The fifth elder brother said from the side: "If you don't like to see it, you won't see it. Just tell people to go back."
Brother Nine was moved when he heard this.
The fourth elder brother hurriedly said: "Those who can hand over the invitations can be related to each other. Since they are reserved first, it is difficult to return them. Just be more careful when accepting them later."
Brother Nine was still a little unhappy, so he told He Yuzhu, "Go to the main room and tell Fujin to bring two jars of Dendrobium tea to the fourth and fifth brothers."
He Yuzhu went in response.
The fourth elder brother shook his head and said, "I don't want it, since it's for herbal tea, you should keep it well."
The fifth elder brother also shook his head and said: "If you don't drink it, you don't like it. Except for milk tea, I don't like to drink other teas, so I put it away when I take it back."
Brother Jiu said: "This is for nourishing the deficiency. Later, the fourth sister-in-law and the fifth sister-in-law are out of confinement, and they can drink it. I thought about giving it during the full moon gift. Since it is not easy to give gifts to give medicinal materials, then you can take it back. Well, it’s not enough to save others from thinking about it when you look back.”
This is a good thing, even the brothers are not willing to share it, and if others ask for it, it will be annoying.
But if there is a patient waiting, it is not easy to refuse.
Divide as much as you can.
Looking back, if the other party can't ask for it, just go to Su Nubeizi's mansion.
After a while, He Yuzhu came back with four cans of tea.
"Fu Jin said, two cans are Dendrobium tea, and two cans are Panax notoginseng tablets, which are also for nourishing Qi. You can stew chicken with Panax notoginseng in winter. Dendrobium can be used as tea after consulting the imperial physician."
There are red sticks on the two kinds of herbal teas, so each person will share two cans.
The fifth elder brother looked at Panax notoginseng first, the color was a bit like dried ginseng, then he took the dendrobium tea and said: "This is more expensive than first-class ginseng, I have to take a good look..."
He opened it, saw the slices inside, and asked, "Then can this stew chicken?"
Brother Jiu said: "Who knows, ask the imperial physician."
The fourth elder brother said to the fifth elder brother: "Summer is not the time for tonic, don't use these casually, let the imperial doctor take care of the compatibility."
Fifth elder brother smiled and said: "I'll just ask, since it's a good thing to invigorate qi, or keep my brother Fujin."
The fourth elder brother also picked up the jar, and was also a little curious about Dendrobium.
Brother Nine thought of Big Brother, and said to the two of them: "This is rare right now, and everyone can't have a share, but it's okay, I'm going to send people to Yunnan to cook tea, and there will be no shortage of this in the future. This time I will give more to my elder brother, so don’t be too picky about gifts, he got this first and brought it to us..."
The fourth elder brother looked at the dendrobium in his hand and said: "You keep this first, and it's the same when you give it to us when Yunnan arrives."
Fifth elder brother also closed the jar and said, "Yes, I'm not in a hurry to eat this right now."
Brother Jiu waved his hand and said: "I took it out, it's for my brothers, and I'm still rich now, besides the five catties I bought, Sunu Beizi sent someone to send two catties over."
The fourth elder brother frowned.
He is soft on people, especially relatives who are not easy to count money directly.
Their current identities are not suitable for getting close to the clan princes.
The fifth elder brother said: "Is that for younger siblings? Is it for younger siblings' natal families?"
He didn't know that an illegitimate daughter was not an illegitimate daughter, but he only thought that Shu Shu's concubine sister had fallen into Beizi's residence.
This is also the clan's mansion, and it's still an old relative, otherwise a life was added in the middle, and it's not uncommon for the two families to fight their heads like dogs.
Brother Nine used to support the Yue family, and was discussed by the clan once.
Brother Jiu realized later: "Is it because of this? I thought it was an apology gift from Beizi Mansion."
Fourth elder brother and fifth elder brother were speechless.
This face is quite thick.
After mixing up other people's affairs, who is sorry for whom?
The fourth elder brother thought that the eighth elder brother asked people all over the world to inquire about the accumulated Sanqi, and said: "The eighth elder brother is using Sanqi, and he has been looking around for the past two days. Since you are useless, then give him some." .”
Brother Jiu said casually: "Then it will be transferred according to the purchase price?"
Although Panax notoginseng is not as expensive as dendrobium, he bought these few catties and sold them at the price of 56 taels per catty, which is the price of first-class ginseng.
The fifth elder brother said: "Don't move, he didn't come to ask for medicine, and he couldn't take the initiative to deliver it. The tenth elder brother should be angry."
The fourth elder brother was startled, but he didn't expect the fifth elder brother to stop him.
"The tenth elder brother and the eighth elder brother are still not on good terms. They have only been fighting for more than half a month. What do others think of you going to the eighth elder brother at this time?" The fifth elder brother was rarely serious.
Brother Jiu listened to the persuasion, nodded quickly and said: "I won't give it away, I won't give it away..."
But the medicinal materials are nothing else, if it is really delayed, it is not good.
What will Khan Ama think at that time, not liking to the eighth elder brother and being cold-hearted are two different things.
The ninth elder brother looked at the fourth elder brother and said: "Then fourth brother, you can take another catty and thirty-seven away, not to mention that the younger brother got it here, if you still use it there, you can send it there."
The fourth elder brother thought about it, and this is indeed a solution.
He said: "Just according to your price, you are not allowed to charge money."
Brother Jiu nodded and said: "Of course, dear brother, you will settle the score. It is your favor that you are willing to give him for free. Here, brother, you will not lose money. If it is not the case, everyone will come to take advantage of me in the future." , I can't stand it."
The fourth elder brother nodded.
Fifth elder brother looked at him and said: "Then you still loose things on weekdays? Isn't that a loss? This dendrobium has honored a circle of elders since I heard you?"
Brother Jiu shook his head and said: "It's not a loss. When my brother is willing to give it away, he is also happy to distribute the money; but how to give it, when to give it, and whether to pay it back next time, you have to follow your heart. It seems that you can't pay tribute. It's also a rule. ..."
As for tomorrow's guests, let's talk tomorrow.
Neither of those two were born in Baoyi, and they couldn't reach their side either.
Sesame cold noodles for lunch.
Just after eating here, Cui Baisui came over, it was the fourth elder brother and the fifth elder brother.
