Chapter 298: Boxes of silver

Chapter 298 Boxes of Silver

Mr. Chen was guarding the end of the village early in the morning. She saw a mule cart and horses running towards this direction from a distance. She hurried to the workshop to tell everyone: "Here comes, the God of Wealth is here!"

Gu Dagui was standing at the gate of the workshop. When he heard her words, he said dissatisfiedly: "Please lower your voice and act like you have never seen the money. Isn't it embarrassing?"

 Mr. Chen ignored him, why did she love money? Who doesn't love money? Lei Wuye sent them money, which was one thousand and twenty taels of silver.

As soon as Gu Dagui finished speaking, Lei Wuye and others arrived, along with Jiang Jiao.

“Brother Gu, we are here to pick up the goods.” Before he could get off his horse, Mr. Lei shouted at the top of his lungs.

Three grandpas and the adults from Qin Gu Luotian's family had been waiting in the workshop. When they heard the sound, they hurried out to greet them.

"Lei Fifth Brother, Ah Ji, I've finally waited for you to come." Third Grandpa knew that Lei Fifth Brother was a straightforward person, so he said directly: "The three seasoning spices have been prepared. You can inspect the goods."

"It's done." Lei Wuye dismounted and shouted to a mule cart behind him: "Lao Mai, Liandong, come down and work quickly."

Lao Mai and Liandong are the people in the Lei family caravan who specialize in inspecting imported goods. They understand pharmacology, recognize poisons, and their tongues are sharp enough to know whether things conflict with each other.

Although Ah Ji is also there, he is one of the leaders and rarely does inspection work.

"Here we come." Lao Mai and Liandong, with six men, carried a box off the mule cart and entered Gu's workshop.

Third grandfather took them to the warehouse containing spices.

Lei Wuye saw the seal on the warehouse door and smiled. The Gu's workshop was really cautious in doing things.

Gu Jinli tore off the seal, unlocked the door, pointed to the bags of spices in the warehouse and said: "Two thousand four hundred kilograms of spices, twenty-four bags, one hundred kilograms each, are all here. Use black cloth The five blessing spices are tied with the belt, the six blessing spices are tied with the blue cloth bag, and the eight blessing spices are tied with the red cloth bag."

Lei Wuye nodded: "Let's inspect the goods."

 Lao Mai and Liandong got busy.

 The Lei family caravan was very strict when inspecting such large quantities of goods. Lao Mai and Wen Dong opened the box, took out a set of silverware, then opened the bags of spices, spread the spices on them, and scooped out the spices in the middle with silver bowls, scooping out half a bowl of each bag.

 Not long after, twenty-four bowls of spices were placed on the floor of the barn.

The two of them grabbed a handful from a bowl and ate the spices. After they realized that the medicinal materials inside were harmless, Lao Mai said: "Kunzi, Ah Chuan, go get the things."

“Hey.” Kunzi and Achuan hurriedly went to get the two copper pots of goat milk, milk, and four kinds of cooked meat from the mule cart.

Pour the sheep and milk into the silver bowl, mix the seasonings inside, put the cooked horse, beef, mutton and pork in, and start waiting.

 Gu Jinli couldn't understand it at first, but when he saw that the copper pot was pouring milk, he understood that it was because he was afraid that the spices would conflict with the goat and milk, so he had to mix it up and try it.

It is said that Dayong drank sheep milk as water.

 Fifteen minutes later, when the horses, cattle, sheep, and pork were soaked, Lao Mai said, "Eat it."

 He was the first to pick up the bowl and ate everything in it.

Wendong and the other six people also finished the contents of the silver bowl in a few mouthfuls.

 After that, it was a long wait.

 During this period, Lao Mai and Wen Dong checked the pulse of themselves and six other people every half an hour.

An hour later, after making sure that everyone was fine and the silver bowl had not turned black, Lao Mai said again: "Eat again." The six people, including Lao Mai and Liandong, picked up the remaining silver bowls and ate all the contents. .

 Gu Jinli frowned: "Grandpa, these are spices. The way you drink them will make you get angry."

It's okay to drink one bowl, after all, these silver bowls are not big, but drinking three bowls in a row will be unpleasant and kill a person.

Lao Mai said, "Don't worry. If you eat too much of these things, it will only cause heat, and there will be no problems. If there are other problems, it's because your spices are poisonous, or they are incompatible with sheep's milk, horse, cattle, sheep, and pork. Then the deal won’t work.”

Gu Jinli: "...then it's done, you can drink it."

 As if she had said nothing.

Lao Mai and the others spent three hours working until the afternoon before they finished testing the spices. They said to Lei Wu Ye and A Ji: "Fifth Master, Ning Master, the spices are fine."

After hearing this, everyone in Gu's workshop breathed a sigh of relief.

Mrs. Chen was frightened for a long time, thinking that the business was going to be ruined. When she heard this, her heart finally fell into her stomach, and she hurriedly asked: "Is it possible to receive the goods? Where is the money?"

"You bitch, shut up now." Gu Dagui was really impressed by her. How could anyone ask someone for money so boldly?

Ms. Chen disagreed: "Delivery and collection of money are a matter of course, why can't we talk about it?"

Lei Wuye laughed loudly: "Nephew of the Gu family, your daughter-in-law is right. We have always delivered goods and collected money. It is a natural and natural law."

 He turned around and shouted outside the workshop: "Changqing, bring the silver in."

"Yes, Fifth Master." Changqing and the others had been guarding the silver in the mule cart. When they heard this, they immediately called to the two brothers next to them and moved the three boxes of silver into the workshop. In front of the Qin Gu Luotian family, He opened his face and said, "One ingot and ten taels, a total of one thousand and twenty taels of silver. Count them."

 “This, so much money!” Mrs. Chen saw three boxes full of silver. One of them couldn’t resist and fainted.

 “Coward, and fainted again.” Gu Dagui scolded her and carried her into the workshop hall, letting her faint inside.

The third grandpa asked Gu Dashan, Gu Jinan, and Luo's father to count the money. After a while, the three of them counted the three boxes of silver and nodded to the third grandpa.

 The third grandfather said to the fifth master Lei: "Brother Lei, the money is right."

Lei Wuye said with a smile: "Then our business is settled."

He called Lao Mai again and said to Third Grandpa and the others: "Brother Gu, nephew Dashan, and girl Xiaoyu, this is an old man from the Lei family's caravan. He has lived in Zhongzhou. From now on, he will take care of the goods from your Gu family's workshop." Let someone check it out.”

 Gu Jinli's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Grandpa Lei, do you mean to say that you will buy spices from us for a long time in the future?"

"Well, we will pick up the goods every three months, each time weighing three thousand kilograms. Let's sign a one-year contract first." Lei Wuye took out two new contracts and handed them to Gu Jinli: "After one year, if you want to renew the contract, Lao Mai will bring you a new contract, and it will be signed for at least three years."

 Three years later, if the Gu's workshop is reliable, the Lei family's caravan will turn the contract into a ten-year contract.

After hearing this, Gu Jinli looked at the contents of the contract and knew that the Lei family caravan was not only going to sell the seasonings and spices to Dayong, but also to the entire north. He was very excited. The seasonings and spices were indeed done right. This is A long-term and profitable deal.

The people of Qin Gu Luotian's family were also very excited. They took three thousand kilograms of goods every three months. It was difficult for them not to make a fortune.

Outside the workshop wall, Mr. Qi was not very happy when he heard this. The Lei family's caravan had to take three thousand kilograms of spices every three months, so could the Qi family still get the goods?
