God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 997
"Hahaha……"

Afterwards, there was a burst of ridicule in the Tai Chi Hall.

Many people looked at Gao Shilian with strange eyes.

"Master Gao, Your Majesty is asking you something!"

"If the food in Xuanyuanju is really the same as His Majesty's daily meal, then I have to try it."

"There are many rare things in the world, but this is the first time I've heard of such rare things in Xuanyuanju!"

For a while, everyone was talking about it.

Gao Shilian's face was flushed with embarrassment, and he wished he could find a hole in the ground.

He originally thought that it would be a great shame and humiliation for Du He to cheat him out of a thousand guan in a moment of confusion.

Never thought that Du He would be so bold as to compare Xuanyuanju with the imperial dining room in the palace.

Originally, this was a big taboo, a challenge to the authority of the emperor, and if he failed, he would be severely punished.

Unexpectedly, His Majesty Li Er, who knew the truth, not only was not angry, but made such an outburst in front of the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs.

Fortunately, His Majesty Li Er also knew that Gao Shilian was a face-saving person, so he didn't get entangled in this matter.

Soon, it was over.

Everyone went out.

Gao Shilian, on the other hand, dodged and walked slowly at the end.

From the Tai Chi Hall to the gate of the palace, there was only a short distance of a few hundred steps, but it was very uncomfortable for him to walk.

After finally walking out of the gate of Taiji Palace, he let out a long sigh of relief.

Then he got into the carriage, and said in a deep voice, "Go to Lai Guogong's mansion!"

The coachman drove the carriage, and within a short time, he sent Gao Shilian to the door of Lai Guogong's mansion.

Gao Shilian angrily walked to the gate, looked at the guard, and asked, "Where is Du He?"

A guard said politely: "Master Gao, my young master is not in the residence!"

"Du He, bastard, where did you go?"

"The villain doesn't know!"

"Humph!"

Gao Shilian flicked his sleeves, turned around and got into the carriage: "Go to Chang'an Bus Company!"

He thought to himself, this bastard Du He, the old man already knew that you had no good intentions, you not only lied to the old man for a thousand pens, but also made the old man make such a big joke, it is really unreasonable.

I want you to look good, little bastard!

The carriage passed the corner of the street and passed a long carriage.

On the street, several people pointed at the carriage.

"Do you know that Xuanyuanju is a restaurant run by Duke Xu's mansion. Duke Xu's mansion is a minister of the court, but he has no shame. He dares to say that the food in his Xuanyuanju is what His Majesty eats every day. How shameless!"

"Yeah, I've never seen such a brazen person!"

Someone discussed it.

After hearing this, Gao Shilian was even more ashamed and angry.

stab.

He pulled out the sword in the carriage for self-defense, wishing he could chop Du He on the spot.

Not long after, the carriage left Yongning Gate and came to Chang'an Bus Company.

Before the carriage came to a complete stop, Gao Shilian held his sword and rushed forward angrily.

However, after searching the entire Chang'an bus company, there was no trace of Du He.

Gao Shilian was so angry that he asked the coachman to drive the carriage to the Bahe River. On the Bahe River was the original headquarters of Dream Group, Datang Study, Datang Furniture Factory, Magic Farm, Banshan College, and other places. The industry is still here.

Gao Shilian thought, this is Du He's lair, Du He must have hid here.

Unfortunately, when he rushed to the edge of the Bahe River, there was still no trace of Du He.

Gao Shilian seemed to have punched nothing, very angry, but helpless.

Very uncomfortable!

"Du He, you little bastard, you wait for this old man..."

Gao Shilian returned to Xu Guogong's mansion angrily.

As soon as he entered the gate, he saw his son Gao Xing come over and said, "Father, where have you been? Du He came to look for you just now."

Duho?

When Gao Shilian heard this name, his aura instantly changed. He grabbed Gao Xing's shoulder and asked, "Where is Du He?"

Gao Xing was full of curiosity, "He has been waiting for you at the house for more than an hour, and he left before you came!"

Gao Shilian: "..."

No drama dares to act like this!
He searched for Du He all over Chang'an City, but unexpectedly, Du He was at his home.

"How long have you been gone?"

"About two sticks of incense!"

I can't catch up!

Gao Shilian regretted it.

"Father, Du He still left a letter!"

"where?"

Gao Xun hurriedly took out the letter.

Gao Shilian couldn't wait to open it, but there was only one sentence on it: Mr. Gao, congratulations!
Congratulations?

Snapped.

Gao Shilian tore up the paper and threw it on the ground: "It's unreasonable, this little bastard, he deliberately angered me. Today, the old man was ridiculed by everyone in the court hall. Now, people all over the city of Chang'an say that I am a fool... Unexpectedly, Du He dared to come and taunt me, it is really unreasonable, come... bring people, this old man is going to find Du He..."

His anger not only did not subside, but intensified.

When Gao Xun heard it, his eyes lit up, and he hurried to call someone.

At this time, the butler hurried in and shouted: "Master, master, great joy, great joy!"

Upon hearing this, Gao Shilian said displeasedly, "Get lost!"

The butler said aggrievedly: "Master, just now there is news that Xuanyuanju has made a fortune... In just two days, he has made a net profit of hundreds of guan."

"What is Xuanyuanju, that's just a smile... What did you say?" Gao Shilian thought it was a joke, but suddenly realized it, his face was full of incredulity.

The butler repeated it.

Gao Shilian asked in surprise, "This... is it true?"

The housekeeper pointed to the outside and said: "Master, it is absolutely true, the shopkeeper of Xuanyuanju is just outside!"

"Let him in!"

After a while, the shopkeeper of Xuanyuanju came in and told Gao Shilian everything that had happened recently.

"Master, some time ago, the business of our Xuanyuanju plummeted. For several days, we didn't even have a single customer. Even the students from the Imperial College stopped visiting. But since a few days ago, for some reason, there have been many people. Since the day before yesterday, it has been overcrowded, and the people who come are not the poor students of the Imperial College, but the rich and the expensive. These people are willing to spend money, and they all order the best dishes and drink the best wine. In just a few days, we have made a net profit of more than 300 guan, and if we continue like this, we can make a net profit of thousands of guan in a month!" The shopkeeper was very excited.

"it is good!"

Gao Shilian stood up suddenly and said with a surge of emotion.

Just in time, Gao Shilian came in with a few strong men and rubbed his hands excitedly: "Father, these people have been in the mansion all year round and have changed clothes. No one knows that we did it, Dad, that guy Du He dared to bully you, wait for me to teach him a lesson!"

Snapped.

Gao Shilian raised his hand and slapped Gao Xingxing directly.

"Father, why did you hit me?"

Gao was dumbfounded when he executed it.

Gao Shilian yelled bitterly: "You bastard, why are you beating me up? It's considered polite not to beat you to death for my father...you don't want to go back."

"Father, you..."

Gao Xun covered his face in surprise.

Is this still the father who angrily said that he wanted to teach Du He a lesson?
Gao Shilian tidied up his clothes, and ordered: "Come here, prepare the horse, the old man wants to visit Du He in person!"

……

Chang'an Public Transport Company.

Gao Shilian and Du He met again.

Du He looked at Gao Shilian with a smile, and asked: "Master Gao, I heard that you are holding a sword today, you are looking for me all over Chang'an City, and you want me to look good, is there such a thing?"

The corners of Gao Shilian's mouth twitched, he smiled, and said: "Nephew, what are you talking about, you and I are friends who have forgotten years, how could I do such a thing, wouldn't it make people laugh at me? To tell you the truth, nephew, today, I am indeed looking for you in Chang'an City, but I am not here to do anything to you, but to negotiate a deal with you."

"Oh? Is there such a good thing?"

Gao Shilian nodded, and said calmly: "Nephew, I have already said just now that we have forgotten our friendship. If you are in trouble, I can't just sit idly by, right? But only two lines were sold, and no one cared about the other seven lines. After thinking about it, I decided to help you and take over all the advertisements of the other seven lines. What do you think? I, Xu Guogong, except Xuanyuanju, there are three restaurants, two cloth stores, some jade shops... Actually, I have already calculated before coming here. From now on, I will definitely suffer a big loss from Xu Guogong's mansion, but who let me appreciate your talent? Well, especially the song "Peach Blossoms with Human Faces and Peach Blossoms", which can be called a famous line through the ages, my nephew, what do you think?"

Du He was overjoyed, and said: "Oh, Mr. Gao, I admire your self-sacrificing spirit. I have no regrets in my life with a friend like you. It's really great. I'm just worried that no one will cooperate with the remaining seven lines of advertisements." Well, you are really sending charcoal in the snow! But, in this way, you will suffer, how can this work?"

"So what's the matter, the old man treats money like dung, and you are a long-term friend, and your father is a good friend for many years, don't care about these things!"

"Really, any price will do?"

In order to fool Du He, Gao Shilian hastily waved his hands: "Of course!"

Snapped.

Du He directly threw the long-prepared cooperation agreement in front of Gao Shilian.

Gao Shilian was overjoyed.

He thought to himself, Du He, a big fool, you still have today!

However, he didn't dare to be negligent. With the experience from last time, he took the agreement and looked at it cautiously.

The terms are mostly the same.

Only one thing has changed.

That is the price.

The price of the previous cooperation was one thousand per month.

Now, it has become two thousand guan.

The corner of Gao Shilian's mouth twitched. He looked at Du He and asked, "Du He, is there a typo here? I remember it was a thousand strings a month!"

Du He smiled indifferently and said: "Master Gao, that was the previous price, now, it is [-] yuan a month, you are absolutely right, Mr. Gao, you just said that it is entirely because of my difficulties, so you help me , Sending charcoal in the snow, no matter what the price is, it counts, right?"

Looking at Du He's smiling face, Gao Shilian really wanted to slap him.

This guy knows everything.

But it also cooperates with the old man to act so realistically!

Gao Shilian felt that he was the big fool!

He can't wait to find another hole to get in!
