Chapter 99: A Business More Fierce than Stealing Money

"Pull us into the water?"

It sounds like this that is very cautious. Liu Xunmou looked at Guo Dan with fear, "You...where do you start?"

As an official, he naturally knows the way of being an official. Once he gets involved in this kind of thing, he will be a life-threatening death!

Guo Tan smiled and said, "Or what do you think I'm here to do? I'm here to cooperate with you three musketeers."

Liu Xunmou immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this and laughed: "We can refuse to cooperate with you, and we will definitely refuse."

Guo Dan sighed: "I'm so sorry. I have assured His Majesty that the Three Musketeers are willing to donate 5,000 taels to help His Majesty relieve financial pressure."

Zhu Lizhi frowned slightly and said, "But you are not the owner of the Three Musketeers."

Guo Tan smiled and said, "But you three musketeers have already hired us to take care of all your business."

Liu Xunmou immediately said: "It's just a business, it's not a business."

Guo Tan smiled and said, "This is of course a deal, and it is a big deal. The 5,000 taels you donated will be exchanged for your Majesty that you three musketeers can enter the palace and record this ceremony with paintings. Think about it, if these paintings are made into picture albums, haha, this huge gold is no problem."

A thousand gold coins? Liu Xunmou immediately took a breath of air conditioning.

Zhu Lizhi said in surprise: "How is this possible?"

Liu Xunmou, who came to his senses, also asked: "Yes! How is this possible?"

If you use these five thousand taels to trade with the emperor, what do you think of the emperor? I can only say that they don’t understand Wanli yet.

Guo Dan said: "Otherwise, who would like to donate this money? Your Majesty is very knowledgeable, no, reasonable, and it is natural to record this prosperous era with paintings. This is a killing two birds with one stone."

"That's right, but..." Liu Xunmou asked again: "Guo Dan, do you know the seriousness of this matter?"

Guo Dan shook her head and said, "I don't know."

Liu Xunmou was shocked, "I wonder if you agreed in one go?"

"Why do you say that I seem to have the right to refuse?" Guo Dan wondered.

Liu Xunmou was speechless.

Guo Dan asked again: "But how serious is this matter? You should listen."

"This matter is not that simple." Liu Xunmou sighed, and then briefly told Guo Dan about the relationship between Concubine Zheng and Concubine Wang Gong.

It turned out to be a bloody drama of competing for favor and inheritance, so can't we change the routine? Moreover, this is too early, and the emperor is still so young. Guo Dan secretly felt funny and shook his head again: "I think you are thinking too much. I don't believe that those censors and censors would be so bored and come to make trouble for me, a child. What's the difference between us and the eunuchs and palace maids who served tea and water at the enthronement ceremony?"

He was really not afraid. If he could refuse, he would have refused long ago. The problem was that he could not refuse, so he could only go all the way to the dark.

Liu Xunmou felt that Guo Dan’s statement was not unreasonable. Whoever was appointed as the imperial concubine had nothing to do with them. They were so humble. However, if they succeeded, how much money would they have to make, and his gambler mentality began to cause trouble again, which was worth a bet.

Guo Dan continued: "The only thing we have to worry about is whether we can do it well. There can be no mistakes in this matter. And unlike in the past, this is not standing and letting you draw, it is much more difficult than before."

Zhu Lizhi felt a little moved when he heard this. This was really a challenge for him. His hand holding the pen was a little ready to move. He pondered for a little while, and suddenly looked at Liu Xumou and said, "This may require Xumou's help."

Guo Dan's face was shocked, and Zhu Lizhi actually asked for help from Liu Xunmou.

Liu Xunmou immediately looked arrogant.

But after waiting for a while, before Zhu Lizhi spoke, he immediately turned dark: "Lizhi, is it so difficult to praise me?"

Zhu Lizhi looked at Liu Xunmou in surprise, and then said to Guo Dan: "Xiongmou has the ability to remember everything. With his help, there will be no problem."

"I will never forget it?"

Guo Dan looked at Liu Xunmou in shock.

Liu Xunmou said unhappyly: "What kind of expression do you look down on me?"

Guo Dan was slightly stunned and said, "No, I just can't understand. Since you have the ability to remember everything, why do you still lose money?"

Liu Xunmou immediately said excitedly: "Isn't it? I also thought that my ability could kill all sides in the casino, but in the end... I often lost points and couldn't win. How could I be willing to say this?"

When it came to the back, his eyes were red.

"rest assured."

Guo Dan patted his shoulder and said, "The money you make in the future will make you lose numbly and you will still be unable to lose."

Liu Xunmou's expression was first happy, and then he said suspiciously: "How is this possible?"

“Everything is possible.”

Guo Tian smiled and said, "But the first thing you have to do is to let this news go."

Liu Xunmou asked subconsciously: "What news?"

"You donated five thousand taels in exchange for your Majesty's grace to allow you to attend the enthronement ceremony."

"Can you still tell me?" Liu Xunmou was shocked again.

Guo Tanfeng said calmly: "We are not doing anything shameful, we can't say anything."

......

......

Kou Jiaya walks.

"Husband, what are you doing?"

Kou Weisha looked at Guo Dan, who was lying on the table, holding a piece of charcoal and painting a piece of white cloth, and couldn't help but feel curious and asked.

In the past two days, Guo Dan seemed to be back to the son-in-law who was doing nothing and was so idle that he was lying on the table every day and drawing things that he couldn't understand at all.

Guo Dan casually replied: "Oh, I'm practicing painting."

Kou Weisha suddenly became depressed and reminded: "Husband, have you forgotten that you still have a task now?"

“What mission?”

“……”

He really forgot. Kou Weisha was completely speechless and said helplessly: "It's the task assigned to you by Your Majesty."

"Oh...this matter!" Guo Dan finally raised his head and smiled, "Of course I haven't forgotten this, but the task is a little simpler, there is no need to do anything at all, just sit here."

Kou Weisha was stunned when he heard this. You have been sitting here for such a big thing?

Just then, Kou Yi reported outside the door: "Son-in-law, eldest lady, and Mr. Zhou from Jinyulou asked for a meeting."

Guo Dan said in a weak voice: "Look, this money-giving person is here."

Kou Weisha looked at Guo Dan with a little confusion, and then said, "Please." Seeing Guo Dan stand up again and walk to her side, she hurriedly stood up and said, "Husband, you sit down."

Guo Tan smiled and said, "No, I like to stand by you." As he said that, he leaned against the bookcase behind Kou Weisha.

While talking, Zhou Feng came into the house and laughed: "Nephew, Niephew, you are admonishing to visit you, didn't bother you?"

"The official is so serious." Kou Weisha stretched out his hand and said, "Please sit down quickly."

After Zhou Feng sat down, he saw Guo Dan standing alone and felt a little restless. Is he not welcome me? He asked, "Don't you sit down?"

Guo Tan smiled and said, "I have been sitting for too long these two days. I want to stand for a while and just sit outside the staff. Don't worry about me."

I dare not ignore you, and I will throw 5,000 taels of money at any time. Zhou Feng smiled embarrassedly, not just sitting or standing.

Kou Weisha was already used to Guo Dan's reeling, sat down and asked, "I wonder what is the order for the official to come to the door today?"

Seeing Kou Weisha sitting down, Zhou Feng calmed down and glanced at Guo Dan again, and said, "I heard that your Yaxing has taken on a big deal recently, which is related to the current emperor."

He did not get very accurate information, so he said it very obscurely.

"The news from the official website is really well-informed!" Guo Dan smiled and nodded again, "It's because the emperor now plans to appoint Concubine Zheng as the imperial concubine, but he does not want to add to the national financial pressure. Therefore, he hired us to find a way to reduce the cost of this enthronement ceremony."

He must make this clear and clear.

"So that's it." Zhou Feng nodded and tentatively said: "It seems that the rumors about the Three Musketeers outside are true."

Guo Dan said in surprise: "What rumors?"

Zhou Feng immediately informed Guo Dan of the rumors outside.

Guo Dan smiled bitterly and said, "I didn't expect it to spread so quickly."

Kou Weisha secretly glanced at Guo Dan and thought to himself that this so-called rumor must have been spread by him. Humph, he can still pretend to be something.

"This is a big deal, how can I cover it up?" Zhou Feng laughed a few times and said, "Nephew, Niephew, we have always had a cooperative relationship. You can't favor one or the other. I wonder if I have the opportunity to participate in Jinyulou?"

Kou Weisha didn't want to say anything at all, just watch Guo Dan perform.

"Is this..."

Guo Dan wanted to speak but stopped.

"Money is not a problem." Zhou Feng said hurriedly.

Guo Dan immediately said: "There is an opportunity."

Kou Weisha pursed her lips.

Zhou Fengxi said: "Is that true?"

Guo Dan nodded and said, "As I said just now, the reason why the emperor hired us to reduce costs is mainly to reduce costs. Then the banquet that day would naturally cost. Therefore, the emperor now contracted some of the banquets to us. If the official wanted to contract these banquets, he would have to donate at least two thousand taels."

Kou Weisha was shocked when he heard this.

I contract the banquet and I will give you two thousand taels. This is really more fierce than robbing money!

Zhou Feng couldn't help but frown slightly.

He thought it would be different, but he didn't know that it would work similarly to the Three Musketeers' way of cooperation.

Because Jinyulou and the Three Musketeers are not the same thing. Although the Three Musketeers donated a total of 5,000 taels, they can use this bookkeeping ceremony to create many exquisite picture albums and sell more money immediately, and they will never lose money. But he is a contracting banquet, and most of the officials are his old customers of Jinyulote. If he participates, he will only gain a reputation at most, which will not be of much help to his business. Is the reputation of 2,000 taels worth it?

This is up to be discussed.

Guo Dan smiled and said, "Maybe the official has no idea. At that time, the Three Musketeers will use paintings to record every dish at the banquet contracted by our Yass Store, and then make it into a picture album and sell it to Jiangnan."

"Two thousand taels are two thousand taels." Zhou Feng immediately agreed, and in the name of the emperor, he went to Jiangnan to advertise. He only collected two thousand taels. It can only be said that Guo Dan is really kind.

"Don't worry, right?"

Guo Dan went to his table, picked up a piece of paper, and handed it to Zhou Feng.

"This is......."

Zhou Feng opened his eyes and saw a wooden box on the paper. Although it was very rough and painted with black charcoal, it was simply unsightly, but Zhou Feng seemed to feel the golden light shining and covered it with his hands, because the two big words "Yu Ci" were written in the middle of the "wooden box".

Guo Dan explained: "Any guests participating in this enthronement ceremony will get a gift box like this. In the gift box, I plan to put some pastries. If the official is interested in putting the pastries in his store into it, he can donate 500 taels in exchange for this qualification. Of course, this gift box has also been painted in the album of the Three Musketeers."

Imperial gift...pastry.

Zhou Feng's eyes lit up immediately and he said excitedly: "I'm very interested in this. Haha!"

"Okay, okay!"

Guo Dan nodded, with a calm expression on his face, and asked again: "I wonder if the official is interested in participating in this enthronement ceremony as a guest?"
