They took some things out of the space and sent them to other companies.
Two families thought the price was too high and only bought some game and a small amount of eggs.
The other few families were relatively wealthy and knew that this thing was rare, so they bought a lot of it and gave the money readily.
Finally, he went to Tongxuan Mansion at the agreed time. After waiting for almost two quarters of an hour, Butler Yu came out yawning.
"Oh, it's you! Why are you so late? I thought you weren't coming."
Neither Ye Yutong nor Li Yunze spoke, their expressions were pale. It was obviously the time he set, but now he felt it was too late. He really asked him to say everything.
Ye Mingzhe saw that his sister and brother-in-law had no intention of talking, so he stepped forward and said with a smile: "Housekeeper Yu, today's goods arrived a little late. I kept you waiting for a long time. Can you see if there is anything I need?"
As he said that, he lifted up the piece of cloth. On the carriage were a wild boar, several pheasants and hares, a basket of eggs, and two small baskets of apples.
Butler Yu walked to the carriage and looked at the game on it. He was a little surprised. These people were quite capable and could get all these good things.
When he didn't show it on his face, he nodded reservedly and said casually: "Pull everyone in!"
Ye Mingzhe paused and asked with a smile: "Butler Yu, are you going to finish everything?"
"You've all been brought here, so just keep them all."
He didn't even ask the price, he just said to the boy behind him: "Carry the things in, and then go to the account and pay them twenty taels of silver."
Ye Mingzhe was shocked when he heard such shameless words.
What the hell? Twenty taels of silver? Even in a good year, this car contains more than twenty taels, right?
In this day and age, if you want to spend such a small amount of money to buy a truckload of our stuff, where is this business? This is obvious robbery.
The smile on his face faded a little, "Butler Yu, the goods that arrived this time were carefully selected by our brothers, spent a lot of manpower and material resources, and shipped from far away places. The price difference you gave us is too far, we I can’t communicate with my elder brother when I go back.”
"What are you talking about? Twenty taels of silver is not enough? We buy your things from our house to give you face. How dare you speak like a lion here?"
His face darkened, and he accused again: "I haven't asked you yet? Where did these things come from? The city gates are closed, how did you get in?"
Li Yunze laughed "ha", "I didn't expect that the Tongpan Mansion in Qingzhou City would even default on food bills. It's really eye-opening."
Has Butler Yu ever been laughed at like this? In the past, others would take the initiative to send it to his door, but he might not necessarily appreciate it.
Now I gave them face, asked them to keep their things, and gave them some money. Unexpectedly, a few boys thought the money was too little?
He stared and said angrily: "What a dissatisfied boy, he actually talked nonsense here and blackmailed him into the Tongpan Mansion."
Then he said to the boy behind him: "Go to the government office tomorrow and ask, isn't the city closed now? How did these people get in?"
"Yes, Butler Yu." The two young men behind him also looked at Li Yunze and the others with mocking awe.
Ye Yutong was amused. After all, he was a high-ranking official. He didn't expect that the housekeeper in the house looked so ugly and even had to pay for food.
If you can achieve the right and sixth level of general judgment, you should not be so stupid. How can you let such a person be a housekeeper? Aren't you afraid of capsizing?
She walked forward with a smile, looked directly at Butler Yu, and started to raise the banner: "It seems that Tongxuan Mansion is going to use its power to bully others, but don't think about it, if we dare to do such a business, will there be no one behind us?"
Butler Yu's expression changed, and he looked at the arrogant Ye Yutong uncertainly.
This boy is right. In such an age, how can he be an ordinary person who can get such good things? He was careless.
Ye Mingzhe was very good at reading faces. Knowing that Butler Yu was loose, he hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile:
"Butler Yu, we were in a hurry today, and it's so late now. Do you think this will work? Leave the things behind for now. Let's go back and talk to the elder brother. We'll come back to collect the cash tomorrow."
Butler Yu stared at the three of them for a while, then forced out a smile and said, "No, I'll have someone call the cashier to get you money now."
"Then thank you to the housekeeper." Ye Mingzhe thanked him with a smile, and then told him the calculation in a small talk.
“Wild boars, pheasants, and hares cost two taels of silver per catty, totaling two hundred and seventy catties.
Eggs and duck eggs cost two taels of silver each. There are fifty eggs and fifty duck eggs in this basket.
There are twenty-six taels of apples in one basket, and there are only two baskets. These add up to a total of seven hundred and ninety-two taels of silver. "
When Butler Yu heard the price he said, anger appeared on his face, "Do you think Tongxuan Mansion is being taken advantage of? Such a small thing costs more than 700 taels of silver? Why don't you go and grab it?"
Li Yunze had already turned the carriage around and said coldly: "Business is all about mutual consent. Since Butler Yu thinks it's expensive, let's take it back."
Ye Yutong has already jumped on the carriage. She has been impatient for a long time. She is harping on buying something. One moment she wants to refuse the payment, the other moment she finds it too expensive. She sees that it won't work and wants to bully others. What the hell is that?
You'd be happy if you didn't need any money, but why would my aunt give it to you? Which clove of garlic do you count?
Ye Mingzhe sighed with pretense of regret, and bowed his hands to the housekeeper, "Butler Yu, let's go back first. We will cooperate again if we have the opportunity in the future."
Butler Yu watched helplessly as a large cart of good things was taken away again, blowing his beard and staring in anger.
He turned around and returned to the house, preparing to report to the adults tomorrow how these things entered the city? Who is the big shot supporting them?
Li Yunze drove the carriage to a remote corner, and the three of them entered the space.
After a busy night, everyone was hungry, so Ye Yutong went to the kitchen and made three bowls of tomato and egg noodles.
The three of them gathered around the table to eat. Ye Mingzhe took a few bites of noodles and felt less hungry.
Then he said: "We have offended Butler Yu this time. I think he will definitely do something bad. We need to be on guard."
Ye Yutong shook his head, "It doesn't matter to us. We can't stay here for two days. We will buy salt tomorrow and send two carts of goods to Chen Mansion in the evening before leaving Qingzhou City."
She said with some worry: "It's Da Kui's place. After we leave, we are afraid that the housekeeper will find him in trouble. They have helped us, so we can't implicate him. We have to find a way to get him out."
