Without saying a word, Zhao Tailai went to the housekeeper and took a silver note worth one hundred thousand taels.
The first time he held such a huge amount of cash openly, Zhao Tailai was so excited that he immediately called out some of his friends.
In Yimei Garden, the most expensive place in the capital, where Li Junze hosted a poetry meeting at that time, Zhao Tailai booked the best box here.
The box fee alone costs one hundred taels of silver. Even a wealthy person like Zhao Tailai does not come to this kind of place often.
Soon, several young men with extraordinary backgrounds in the capital gathered together, and a table of wine and food was served.
The price of any dish is never less than twenty taels of silver.
For ordinary people, just one dish here would be enough to cover their expenses for a year.
After eating and drinking for three rounds, Zhao Tailai smelled of alcohol and said with a rosy face: "Brothers, my old man is a little unusual today."
"He actually told me to play whatever I wanted and just take the money from home. When I went out, I took out one hundred thousand taels, and I actually took it out directly."
After smacking his lips, and using the strength of the wine, Zhao Tailai said, "There's nothing wrong with me, as if I'm going to die soon."
Several other young masters who were also smelling of alcohol heard this and said with a smile: "Perhaps your old man saw that you have performed well during this period and gave you a reward?"
Zhao Tailai glared at the person who spoke, and said angrily: "After all these years, no matter how well-behaved I pretend to be, my old man can tell at a glance. Besides, I haven't been pretending much during this time."
Another person asked: "Brother Zhao, your old man didn't say anything else?"
"I told you, they said they would send me to Jinling in a month. They said that the situation in the capital was not peaceful recently, so they asked me to go to Jinling and come back after a while."
"Jinling?"
Some people wondered: "That's King Wen's territory, right? Hao Duanduan, why did Mr. Ge send you to King Wen's territory?"
Zhao Tailai sneered: "How do I know what my old man is thinking."
"But I heard that by the Qinhuai River in Jinling, the girls there are very beautiful. The girls from the south of the Yangtze River are more graceful and know how to please men than those from the capital."
Someone interrupted and laughed: "I have been to that place two years ago. The cost is not low. Brother Zhao, you have to bring enough money when you go there. Your father's name is not easy to use in King Wen's territory. Let's talk about it later."
The first brother from Beijing went to Jinling, but he ended up playing King Chicken with little money, and it would become a big joke if he was thrown out to others."
As soon as this was said, everyone at the table burst into laughter.
Only Zhao Tailai glared at him angrily and said: "What the hell, this young man would do such a thing? But there is a point in what you said. If you go there, I'm afraid you don't have enough money. The old man is now
Generous, God knows how much money he can give me in a month. According to my understanding of him, there is a high probability that he will send someone to keep an eye on my expenses. How uncomfortable is this? "
"Brother Zhao, if you want to make money, I have a way."
Someone said mysteriously: "In the past two days, a thing called soap has suddenly become popular in Beijing. I don't know who made this thing. It is specially used for bathing and cleaning. Several aunts in my family have it.
One piece, very popular, I tried it, not only it was clean, but it also had a light floral fragrance, which was very nice."
