The Red Mansions Across the Four Seas

Chapter 107 The Eunuch's Relatives

Dai Quan can be regarded as Jia Min's acquaintance.

Although he often went to Yeduju to get wine, he didn't give money.However, he gave Jia Min three scrolls, which were all valuable items.Even if no money is given, it is enough to cover decades of wine money.

Therefore, on the whole, Jia Min owed Dai Quan more.

"This is my relative. Last time I bought watermelon from you, I didn't have enough money. This time I came to pay back the money."

After Dai Quan and the others entered the room and sat down, they cut to the chase.

"Since he is a relative of Eunuch Dai, the money will be exempted."

"Hey, that's not okay. We are one size fits all. If we don't give money, wouldn't we be bad debtors?"

The warrior took out a bag of silver from his pocket and put it on Jia Min's table.

Jia Min naturally didn't believe Dai Quan's relatives.

Those who can be eunuchs are basically from poor families, otherwise, who would send their own children to be eunuchs?Therefore, Dai Quan's relatives are basically not big shots.

He was already a powerful eunuch, but he respected that little girl so much, how could she be his relative?

However, Jia Min didn't need to lift the cover, so he just accepted the money.

After chatting for a while, Fenghua came over to ask for dinner.

"Since it's time to catch up with the meal, I will have a casual meal here. Although there are no delicacies from mountains and seas, the way I eat here is guaranteed to be something you have never seen before. Why don't you experience it for a while, it is also a new experience .”

Dai Quan looked at the girl and saw that she hesitated for a moment, then nodded, agreeing.

This little girl is Princess Chang'an.That warrior is Li Chengbin, the bodyguard, and the two attendants are Zheng Qipin's Li Chun and Li Xia.

Princess Chang'an originally only planned to bring Li Chengbin, Lichun and Lixia.Later, I heard from Li Chengbin that this Jia Min had a bad temper, and he often didn't give face to the people in his house, so he changed his mind.

This trip is to buy shares from others, which is to take advantage of others.Naturally, it is not good to use too much power to suppress people.You can't reveal your identity, so why do people ask you to buy shares?
Besides, even if you reveal your identity, if people say, I don't do business now, they can only stare blankly when the time comes.You can't behead someone just because they don't do business, right?

Only then was Princess Chang'an dumbfounded, and realized that this business is not so easy to do.When he met Dai Quan in depression, Li Chengbin remembered that Dai Quan often took wine from Yeduju, so Princess Chang'an put this matter on Dai Quan's head.

Dai Quan had no choice but to bite the bullet and come.

Dai Quan was worried that eating here would wrong the princess, but once he entered the dining hall, he suddenly felt enlightened.

I saw that the dining hall was paved with stone slabs, which were wiped clean without any dust.The windows are bright and the tables and chairs are clean and tidy.

The most peculiar thing is that there is no such big table as usual, but some small tables with a chair next to the table, which is obviously a table for one person.

Near the door of the kitchen is a row of cases, on which more than a dozen large wooden plates are placed side by side, containing hot meals.On the side are two wooden barrels with soup inside.

Beside the case, there were some beautiful women there, each carrying a wooden tray, picking up food for themselves.

"I eat here, which is different from other places. It is called a buffet. The meals are all prepared and placed there. I can take whatever I want to eat. I can take as much as I can eat."

"In this way, it saves everyone from eating on the same plate. If someone gets sick or something, it will not be passed on to others. It can also avoid waste."

"Heh, little brother Jia, your method is quite new, and our family has never seen it before. Today I have gained some knowledge, so I have to try it."

"In this case, please come with me. I came here to pick up food boxes, bowls and chopsticks, and then take them as I like. Then I can find a table and sit down by myself, and I can eat slowly, eat fast and slow, everything is free To avoid embarrassment, if you don’t get enough to eat once, you can add more at will, and no one will laugh at you.”

Seeing that there were not many people there, Jia Min took the group of people, took food boxes, and went to get food separately.

Princess Chang'an has always been served by others when she eats.She was already restless, and wanted to make things happen whenever she had nothing to do.

Now that I have seen such new tricks, I have long been eager to try them.So you're welcome, just choose what you like, and fill the food box almost full.

Dai Quan and others were worried about her embarrassment. Lichun and Lixia were planning to help the princess get food. Seeing this, they were naturally relieved.

So everyone brought their own food boxes and gathered at the east end of the dining hall.The group at the west end are the female relatives of the Jia family.

Princess Chang'an was thinking about it while eating.

This Jia Min is indeed different.Even having a meal, you can tinker with such tricks.It's very fresh.

Just what are those beautiful women doing?It looks like it belongs to a wealthy family, could it be his family?Is this too much?

It seems that this person is not only a profiteer, but also a disciple.

The girls and daughters-in-law of Jia's mansion saw this buffet for the first time, and they found it very interesting to eat.Originally, I wanted to communicate with Jia Min, but seeing that he had guests, it was not easy to bother me.

Hearing that it was the great eunuch Dai Quan, he became a little curious.

Jia Lian had met Dai Quan before, so he came over to say hello.I saw a few other people, they just happened to be the watermelon group who had won the filming of "Butterfly Love Flower" last time. I remembered that Xia Bingzhong came with me last time, knowing that they were not ordinary people, I politely said a few words, and then I went back to the west.

When I went back and said something to the people in Jia's mansion, those girls, Qin Keqing and Li Wan inevitably looked here a few more times, and then talked in a low voice.

The idea of ​​this buffet was made by Jia Min when he heard that the girls in the mansion were coming, and he told Ping'er and Jiao Li to arrange it this way.

The purpose is to let the girls experience something new.The second is to let them eat casually, so as not to get here, I am sorry, and I will not be full in the end, and I have wronged the girls.

The advantage of this buffet is that it is more casual to eat.Take your own, eat your own.To avoid the embarrassment of eating slowly because someone eats fast.Or those who eat a lot, feel embarrassed to let go of eating in front of many people, and end up not being full.

This idea, he originally planned to open some chain restaurants in the future, now that he plans to leave, he took it out in advance and used it here first.

If you have some brains, you can discover business opportunities and learn a very useful business model by eating this meal.As for whether they can realize the value of this model, it only depends on their own understanding.

Jia Min took the opportunity to get the soup, went around to the women's family and told them not to be polite, he had guests there and needed company, so he went back to the east.

In fact, Jia Min is really reluctant to eat with them now.

It's not that Jia Min is tired of them, but that after what happened in Rongxitang, they don't have much to talk about together.He felt that even though he had no conflicts with these female relatives, a rift had already formed.

Although nothing appeared on the surface, that subtle feeling already existed.

He was really willing to be with Qin Keqing and Miaoyu, and even Baochai, but he didn't dare to act rashly under the watchful eyes of the public, lest he would bring criticism to them.

After dinner, Jia Min followed Dai Quan and went back to the study.After drinking tea for a while, Dai Quan winked, Princess Chang'an and the others went out for a stroll, only Jia Min and Dai Quan were left in the room.

"The little brother must have guessed it. This time, I came here to ask for something. I'm not polite, so I'll just say it."

"Don't be polite, father-in-law, just speak up. As long as I can do it, I will never refuse."

The relationship between people, sometimes, is really wonderful.

Some people stay together all their lives and are suspicious of each other.Some people only need to meet once to build mutual trust.

Jia Min and Dai Quan belonged to this situation.

So far, the two had only met briefly after the launching ceremony of the Duke's Liquor, and they had no direct contact at this time.Only through the medium of wine, indirect contact.

However, Jia Min trusted Dai Quan very much.This is probably the so-called hitting it off.

"Little brother, do you know who the relative I'm talking about is?"

"Since my father-in-law is honest with me, I will be blunt. That woman is not your relative, maybe some master in the palace?"

"Little brother really has eyesight. To tell you the truth, she is Princess Chang'an."

Even though it was expected to be a certain master, Jia Min was still surprised when he heard that it was Princess Chang'an.

This princess of Chang'an is really famous in the noble and official circles of the imperial capital.The absurd things she did have been spread all over the world, and even the people have heard of them.

"You're looking for me, but it's related to Princess Chang'an? I don't seem to be able to help her."

"The little brother may have heard of it. This little master is a money-spending master. Her brothers told her to be searched, and they were scared to death. As long as they see her, it's like a mouse seeing a cat." Like."

"These anecdotes have also been heard."

"Actually, Chang'an is not hateful, it's just a bit willful. She didn't want to do that, so she wanted to start a business to make money. It's just that she didn't have much money in her hand, so she found it on my head. She doesn't know how to do it." What kind of business, so I want to invest in a dry stock with my little brother, so as to earn some pocket money."

How can she be a serious princess, as for being so poor?

"Accordingly, I shouldn't refuse my father-in-law. It's just that today is different. My property here will be handed over to the mansion. After the settlement is completed in the near future, I will leave the imperial capital. I am here too. There is no business. If the father-in-law agrees, I can do business elsewhere, and I can take the princess with me."

"Hey, little brother, according to our family, you can't leave."

Dai Quan looked at Jia Min with a smile, and stroked his beardless chin with his hand, looking confident.
