Butler Xu nodded to the two of them, then walked up to the man, smiled and said softly, "A hundred strings, can you give me your number plate?"
"Okay!" The man was so blessed that he opened his eyes and nodded sharply without any hesitation. It was precisely because he did not hesitate that he was able to accept this sudden wealth.
Butler Xu smiled slightly, raised his hand and pointed twice at the servant behind him.
The servant hurriedly stepped forward and took out a thick stack of treasure notes.
Butler Xu took it and handed it to the man.
The man's eyes widened when he saw so many treasure notes. He had never seen so many treasure notes in his life, and every one of them was brand new.
"Sir, this is the number plate." The man did not rush to receive the money, but took out the number plate first and handed it to Butler Xu respectfully with both hands.
Butler Xu glanced at him in surprise, smiled when he accepted the number plate, and said, "The young man is not bad, he is quite smart. If you need anything, you can come to Wei Guogong's mansion to see me."
"Thank you, sir." The man was not stupid. He knew the weight of Butler Xu's words, so he knelt down and kowtowed.
Butler Xu handed the treasure banknote to the man again. The man looked at it and hesitated for a moment before taking it.
Butler Xu smiled and said calmly, "Take it."
"Yes, thank you sir." The man then took the banknote with both hands.
Butler Xu took the number plate, raised it to the shopkeeper, and said with a smile, "Can I buy a gold watch?"
"Of course, please, sir!" The manager showed a smile on his face and extended his hand to indicate that he could come in at any time.
Butler Xu walked into the watch shop, and the people around him looked at the man and began to whisper.
It’s just a number plate. Not only did he get a reward of one hundred guan, but he also had a fawning relationship with the Duke of Wei. This is going to be prosperous.
Just by standing in line, you can get a reward of one hundred guan, and you can also join the Duke of Wei's palace, and you can become a prosperous person from now on.
Who can not be tempted by such an opportunity, and who can not be jealous?
Some smart people have already seen the opportunity to make a fortune. If they queue up early next time. Although they can't afford a gold watch, they can sell the number plate to those who can afford it!
From then on, whenever the watch shop started selling a new batch of gold watches, people would line up at the door as quickly as possible. These people couldn't afford gold watches, so after getting the number plate, they resold them to other people in need.
.
People who want to buy a gold watch are also willing to spend a little money to buy the number plate. After all, for these people who are either rich or noble, even having the housekeepers and servants stand in line in public is a big deal for them.
For losing face.
You may even be laughed at by your opponents in turn, "If you don't even want to pay for a few coins, why should you buy a gold watch? Go home and have your baby."
Zhen Guogong Mansion.
Under an old tree in the garden, Han Du was lying on a lounge chair, eating fruit and staring at his legs leisurely. The sun shone through the gaps between the leaves, falling on Han Du's body and illuminating golden spots.
Suddenly, Han Du noticed that there seemed to be someone around him. Didn't he tell others not to disturb him? Who is this person who has no eyesight?
Han Du opened his eyes suddenly and suddenly saw a smiling face occupying his sight. Just as he was about to slap him, he realized that it was Zhu Yunye.
Looking at Zhu Yunye's mean smile, Han Du wanted to pretend that he didn't recognize him and give him a slap.
"Why didn't the emperor tell me when he arrived?"
Zhu Yunye laughed instead and said, "I saw my uncle sleeping soundly, so I couldn't bear to disturb him."
I don’t want to be disturbed by you, so it’s best that you don’t come to see me. Han Du quickly rolled his eyes at Zhu Yunye, and immediately asked with a smile, “Does the emperor have anything to do with you?”
I don’t care how many years I’ve been working, if you have nothing to do with me, just go back quickly.
"Ahem!" Zhu Yunye suddenly felt embarrassed when he heard this.
When Han Du took a look, he was even more confused about what happened to Zhu Yunye.
Zhu Yunye glanced at Han Du and said with a dry smile, "That's right. Isn't uncle selling gold watches?"
Han Du nodded slightly in response and looked at him with satisfaction and confusion. Zhu Yunye should know about selling watches, so why are you asking again now?
Moreover, I immediately gave him a clock and a gold watch, but it wasn't that Zhu Yunye didn't like it and he didn't accept it.
Zhu Yunye was immediately choked up. Zhu Yunye heard that Han Du sold gold watches. Originally, he did not think that gold watches were good. Compared with clocks, they were not grand enough.
However, as more and more people wore gold watches, when they saw the ministers, they would take out the gold watches from their arms and open them with a "snap" sound, take a look at the time, then close it with a "snap" and put it back into their arms.
Originally, Zhu Yunye had no feelings about this kind of behavior, but after seeing it many times, he actually felt it was somewhat elegant.
After his mentality changed, Zhu Yunye also wanted to try wearing a gold watch.
But Zhu Yunye didn't have it in his hand. He originally thought that Han Du would send it to him, but he waited and waited and didn't get it.
No, Zhu Yunye couldn't wait any longer and simply came to Han Du directly.
When Han Du heard that Zhu Yunye wanted a gold watch, he suddenly became strange: "Your Majesty, when I sent it to the palace, didn't you say that the gold watch was too small and you didn't like it?"
"Ahem!" Zhu Yunye looked embarrassed and paused before saying, "I think this gold watch is pretty good now."
Han Du immediately understood. Zhu Yunye saw that wearing gold watches had become a trend and wanted to follow the trend?
But what did he mean when he came to tell me these words? Han Du reacted instantly and looked at Zhu Yunye with a bad expression.
"Your Majesty, you don't want me to give you a gold watch, do you? You are rich all over the world, how can you do that?"
"Since uncle is interested, I will reluctantly accept him." Zhu Yunye quickly interjected, without giving Han Du a chance to refute, and clapped his hands with a smile, "I would like to thank you uncle, I don't want too many, twenty is enough."
Twenty is not many?
Han Du glanced at Zhu Yunye helplessly, not bothering to argue with him, and sighed, "Okay, I will tell Sun Xian later to prepare it and send it to the emperor."
The gold watches sold in the shop can be made by others, but what Zhu Yunye wants can only be made by Sun Xian himself.
It just so happened that Sun Xian was dissatisfied with Han Du selling gold watches in his name, but now he could be satisfied.
"Then, I'd like to thank you uncle." Zhu Yunye smiled and chatted with Han Du for a few words before returning to the palace.
When Han Du sent Zhu Yunye away, he couldn't help but sigh that people's hearts were not as good as they used to be in the world. Fang Xiaoru snatched the gold watch from his hand and even shamelessly wanted to sell it to him at a high price. Tang Ding went even further and acted helpless.
As for Zhu Yunye, good guy, there are twenty at the beginning. Can he wear so many? Butler Xu nodded to the two of them, walked to the man, smiled and whispered "One hundred strings"
, please give me your number plate, okay?"
"Okay!" The man was so blessed that he opened his eyes and nodded sharply without any hesitation. It was precisely because he did not hesitate that he was able to accept this sudden wealth.
Butler Xu smiled slightly, raised his hand and pointed twice at the servant behind him.
