Chapter 196 Greed

   Imperial Doctor Zhou nodded, "It shouldn't be wrong."

  Kang Kang slapped his hand, "That's good, then this ginseng is just going to be taken to the mother's concubine to celebrate her birthday."

   then instructed Steward Wang, "Give him the money according to the market price."

  Kang Kang continued: "Xiao Wang still has some errands, so I won't accompany Jiang Xiucai." After speaking, he lifted his robe and went out of the room.

   Zhou Taiyi also left immediately.

   Butler Wang sat down slowly, squinting at Jiang Youzhi, "How much money do you want?"

The king steward of Jiang Youzhi handed over his hands, "I heard that a few years ago, there was also a branch of ginseng that was more than 300 years old. It was not as big as this one, and it was not as old as this one. It was sold in the capital for 8,000 taels of silver. "

   Butler Wang smiled, "You really dare to shout."

   "You have to know that the capital is the capital, how can Xiangcheng compare to the capital?"

   Jiang Youzhi was silent.

   Butler Wang tapped his fingers on the table, "Well, ginseng costs 6,000 taels."

  Jiang Youzhi's face sank slightly, "Steward Wang atones, this price cannot be sold."

   Butler Wang said unhappily, "Six thousand taels is a lot."

  Jiang Youzhi just kept silent.

   Butler Wang's face darkened, "Do you still want to take the things that entered my palace?"

  Jiang Youzhi smiled lightly, "Even the palace cannot forcefully buy or sell!"

   Butler Wang stared at Jiang Youzhi for a while, then looked at Ah Hu.

  Ahu squinted at him, as if planning to beat him if he disagreed.

   Butler Wang twitched the corners of his mouth and sat down slowly, "Then I'll add more, seven thousand taels."

  Jiang Youzhi lowered his eyes, thinking secretly in his heart.

   He could almost guess that the steward Wang bought this ginseng, and when he kept the account, he would have to include 8,000 taels, maybe more.

   This extra silver naturally goes into his own pocket.

   Watching others take away a thousand taels, Jiang Youzhi was not reconciled.

   Butler Wang saw that he was silent, and said simply: "Seven thousand taels, there is no more money. If you don't want to, you can talk to the prince yourself."

   After hearing this, Jiang Youzhi understood that seven thousand liang was the bottom line of Butler Wang.

   He sighed in his heart, people have to bow their heads under the low eaves.

   He nodded, "In that case, let's take this price."

   Butler Wang straightened up, "There is one more."

   "We can't talk nonsense about things in the palace, the sale of ginseng, and the price..."

  Jiang Youzhi nodded, "I still understand this rule. Butler Wang can rest assured that not a word of it will be spread out."

   Butler Wang raised his eyebrows, "I hope you really understand the rules."

   He got up, "Let's go, follow me to the cashier to get the money."

   When they arrived at the account, Butler Wang took seven thousand taels of silver notes and handed them over to Jiang Youzhi, then waved and asked the servant to take them out.

   After exiting the gate of Prince Kang's mansion, Ah Hu got into the carriage and couldn't help but mutter, "This housekeeper is not a good thing, he just greed us a thousand taels of silver."

  Jiang Youzhi said indifferently: "There's nothing you can do about it, the lord won't care about such trivial matters, let's not take a step back, I'm afraid we're going to cause some trouble."

  The two returned to the inn. Jiang Youzhi entered the lobby and saw Gu Yunjiao and the yellow-toothed man sitting and talking in the lobby that day.

  Jiang Youzhi walked over, Gu Yunjiao looked at him inquiringly, Jiang Youzhi nodded, and made a mouth shape to her.

  Gu Yunjiao could tell what Jiang Youzhi said about seven thousand taels, but it was in line with her psychological tone. She nodded and smiled, "It just so happened that Lao Huang said he wanted to take me to see the shop."

  Jiang Youzhi pushed the boat along the river, "Then let's go together."
