The Former Wife Came to the Door
Page 634
The eunuch looked intoxicated: "This... this candy... ah ah..."
Li Hui laughed and said, "Isn't the candy not bad for Wansheng? If the father-in-law thinks it can still enter the Fayan, do you want to buy a little bit of it to enter the palace and give it to all the ladies? I'm not boasting, if your Huiyan finds such a delicious candy , ladies must be full of joy, praise you for your ability to do things, give you rewards are trivial things, maybe eat happily, and give you a higher title... Cough... It's a position, isn't that flattering?"
In fact, Li Hui doesn't need to say this, the eunuch himself has the same idea. Throughout the ages, there are many examples of getting awards for finding good treasures for his immediate superiors. There is another way to go.The smile on his face became even brighter. It was just a smile to deal with it because he was afraid of causing trouble, but now it has become a friendly smile: "Master, how much do you have for this candy? What is the purchase price? If it is suitable, I'll buy some back."
Li Hui chuckled, stretched out a finger and said, "A tael of gold..."
"One tael of gold to buy a car?" The eunuch wondered, "So expensive?"
"No, no, no!" Li Hui said seriously, "One tael of gold buys one piece of candy!"
"Pfft!" The eunuch spewed blood and fell to the ground: "I'm dizzy, your price is outrageous."
Not only the eunuch thought it was outrageous, but Zhou Yijing, who was peeking from the side, also thought it was outrageous. She couldn't help but asked Zhao Kuangyi next to her with a blank face: "Why does my husband charge such a high price? Are you afraid that the eunuch will not want it? If The quotation is too high to scare people, maybe our plan to infiltrate the palace will fail. In my opinion, one copper coin is enough."
Zhao Kuangyi shook his head with a smile and said: "Miss Zhou, you still don't have a good grasp of people's hearts. Li Hui is right to do this, or in other words, this guy is a thief. The more expensive he sells chocolates, the easier it is for him to fall. If it is in the hands of Queen Song, it will be easier for her to summon us. If it is sold cheaply, then it is very likely that it will not reach Queen Song's hands at all, and it will become a snack for the maids and eunuchs, and our plan will be in vain. gone."
"Huh? I... don't quite understand." Zhou Yijing sweated profusely.
Zhao Kuangyi explained: "One tael of gold is a small piece. After the price is paid, the eunuchs will really value this kind of candy, and they will not be willing to give it to the servants in the palace. They will carefully deliver it to the ladies like treasures. Li. If my expectations are correct, Li Hui wouldn’t give the eunuch a lot, at most a dozen yuan, and the eunuch would be more careful in choosing whom to give to this amount.”
Zhou Yijing finally understood after hearing this: "Because it is expensive and rare, eunuchs can only dedicate it to the most powerful people, and only in this way can they get the greatest reward."
Zhao Kuangyi smiled and said, "This time it's right!"
While the two were discussing in low voices, Li Hui and the eunuch on the other side also reached the most critical game time.
The eunuch shook his head like a splashing drum: "No, no, why don't you go to heaven for a tael of gold and a piece of candy? Your price is not so much selling candy as it is robbing!"
Li Hui has a serious expression on his face: "Elder-in-law, you don't know, this kind of candy called chocolate, one of the raw materials is called Ke Ge, it comes from overseas thousands of miles away, where there is a wilderness, where savages dance in grass skirts, Once they see strangers, they will rush up to hack and kill, capture the living and roast them for food. They are cruel and terrifying, tsk tsk tsk. Wansheng organizes a fleet, sails thousands of miles, fights with savages, grabs food at the tiger's mouth, and loses Countless servants finally brought this miraculous ingredient back..."
He was full of nonsense, and the eunuch couldn't prove it anyway, and it wasn't completely nonsense, cocoa, a food that originated in tropical America, was indeed still in the hands of savages at this point in the early Northern Song Dynasty!This thing did not exist in the Northern Song Dynasty, and it will not exist in the next few hundred years. No one can expose his nonsense.
Li Hui said with a sad face: "The cost of traveling thousands of miles, the family members who were eaten by savages need funeral expenses, etc., make this kind of food extremely expensive. I don't want to sell it so expensive, but I am also very desperate! "
The eunuch was stupefied by him: "Uh, what you said seems to make sense, but, it's still too expensive, I'm a little afraid... If I decide to buy such expensive candies back, my lord Blame me for extravagance and waste, and I will die."
Li Hui pretended to ponder and said, "Is that so... Let me think about it..."
He pretended to think for a few minutes, and then suddenly showed a painful expression on his face: "Forget it, I don't want the child to be tied to the wolf, so I will suffer a bit."
He suddenly took out ten pieces of chocolate from his pocket and put them in the hands of the eunuch: "Here are ten pieces of candy, and you won't be charged. You can take them into the palace and give them a free trial. Let the girls have a taste." , and then tell them that this thing is one or two pieces of gold, and let the women decide whether they are willing to buy it, do you think it is okay?"
Try it for free, no one played like this in ancient times!
As soon as the eunuch heard that there was a free tasting, there was no reason not to accept it, and hurriedly said: "Well, I think this proposal is good, okay, I will take these candies into the palace and give them a taste or two. We are satisfied, how can I find you?"
Li Hui said with a smile: "The biggest inn in the city, when you go to the counter, just ask Mr. Li."
"Stay in an inn? Where's your son's mansion?"
Li Hui spread his hands and said, "Wansheng lives in the south of the Yangtze River, and he doesn't have a mansion in the capital. This time he came to Beijing to sell candy, and he will temporarily stay at an inn."
"Okay!" The eunuch didn't have anything to ask now, "Just wait for my news."
"Then there is Father Lao." Li Hui stretched out his hand, and put another small piece of gold into the eunuch's palm: "Wan Sheng also wants to ask Father-in-law for a favor, can you let Wan Sheng meet your mother and ask her to send you a piece of gold?" Wouldn’t it be great for the army to kill all the savages and bring back more materials?”
The eunuch thought to himself: This young man is on the right track, he keeps giving bribes, and he is willing to try such an expensive product for free. The most important thing is that this food is fucking delicious, hahaha, this time I will be rich.This food is so delicious, I guess the empress also wants to meet him, I can make a fortune by pushing the boat, hehe.
He returned to the palace, looked at the ten pieces of chocolate in his hand, first withheld two pieces and put them in his pocket.In this way, there are only eight yuan left. How can this bit of chocolate be distributed to the "women".And who is the most powerful person in the harem except the empress?
The eunuch didn't know that he was completely in the trap, he raised his feet and rushed towards the queen's bedroom...

Several hours later, eight pieces of chocolate fell into Queen Song's hands.
Empress Song is 24 years old this year. Since she has never experienced the turmoil of the founding of the country, nor has she ever played palace fights with others, she is considered innocent.On the surface, she looks younger than her actual age. She is obviously 24 years old, but she looks no different from a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl.Life is happy and carefree, I don’t know what it’s like to be sad, and I don’t have much fun all day long. I just heard the eunuch report that "I got a rare candy", so I happily called the eunuch to come in.
"This candy is too little, isn't it just eight yuan?" Empress Song was a little displeased: "I said in my heart that if it tastes good, I will share it with all the sisters. You only have eight yuan here. How do I divide it?" ?”
The eunuch put his head on the ground, not daring to lift it up at all: "Your Majesty the Empress doesn't know that this candy is produced thousands of miles overseas, and is guarded by cannibals. Merchants need to travel thousands of miles to fight with savages in order to get a little bit of it." The material is really not easy to make, and it takes eight taels of gold to buy it for just eight yuan."
"Scared?" Empress Song was startled: "It's only eight yuan, eight taels of gold? Well, isn't this more expensive than gold?"
"It's more expensive than gold, but it's really delicious and has an unprecedented taste. The slave thinks it's worth the price." The eunuch said: "So the slave didn't offer it to other empresses, but got it directly from the queen. Ma'am here."
Empress Song also felt that the pear mountain was huge, and she had never seen a candy that was more expensive than gold in her life.If she was an old woman, she probably wouldn't be interested in continuing, but at her age, she is really curious about all kinds of new things. Now that she sees it, there is no reason not to try it.
Empress Song winked at the maid next to her. The maid stepped forward, picked up the chocolate, and under the "guidance" of the eunuch, opened the wrapping plastic paper, took it out and looked left and right, it was dark One piece...it seems a bit wild.
Empress Song snorted and said, "It looks ugly."
Of course, it is impossible for her to eat it directly. This kind of thing of unknown origin must be tested for poison. The maid cut the chocolate in half with a knife, picked up half, hesitated for a while, and under the urging eyes of Queen Song, went to the chocolate. Throw it in your mouth...
Then, the maid was drunk!
After a while, Empress Song was also drunk!
