Chapter 370 Chapter 370: Yes, I double standard

Chu Hanming became anxious when he heard it, he waved his hands hurriedly, and said, "What is this for? Li'er, I'm not here to beg for money."

Nan Li blinked, "Second Uncle is an elder, so I, a junior, should express my affection, but now Second Uncle brings chicken soup, how can I be embarrassed? Second Uncle, this 1000 taels is not much, so you can keep it, otherwise I will be in good faith disturbed."

Yuan Bao has already brought the banknote and put it in front of Chu Hanming's desk.

How could Chu Hanming still not understand what Nanli meant.

She was afraid that she would ask for something, so she would rather spend money to stop his mouth first.

He was a little annoyed, Nan Li was not embarrassed, she disliked her bad food, so she didn't plan to let him speak, right?

But Chu Hanming was also thick-skinned, instead he chuckled: "If Li'er is really afraid of having a bad conscience, how about doing a little favor for Second Uncle?"

Nan Li rolled her eyes in her heart.

She knew that the second uncle had nothing to do to be courteous, so he must be asking for help.

But he has lost his face like this, so Nan Li just listens to see if it is appropriate to make a move.

"Second Uncle, please tell me."

Chu Hanming regained his energy all of a sudden, and continued, "I have a close friend who wants to ask for a mantra talisman, and the price is easy to negotiate."

Nan Li frowned subconsciously, and said, "Does Second Uncle know that my mantras are not for sale?"

The mantra talisman is a talisman created by her, and other Taoist priests may not be able to learn it well if they want to learn it. No wonder the second uncle came to say this.

Seeing her, Chu Hanming immediately rejected her, his complexion darkened first.

But he quickly laughed again, and said: "Li'er is not sold to outsiders, but if sold to my best friend, it's not considered outsiders."

"Some talismans seem to have little effect, but if they can be used well, they can also be used as tools to kill or harm people." Nan Li said, "I won't sell these mantra talismans, second uncle, forgive me for being helpless."

Moreover, mantra talismans are not very useful in daily life, and Qin Zheng would only ask for one when he encounters an extremely difficult prisoner on weekdays.

The best friend of the second uncle actually went around and asked the second uncle to buy a talisman, which is probably not a good thing.

Chu Hanming stood up abruptly, a little annoyed: "Li'er, is that how you look at Second Uncle's best friend? A servant in his family stole something and hid it. He used a lot of punishment, but the servant still refused to tell where he hid it. , that’s why he wanted to buy a mantra talisman, it’s not for killing people!”

Nan Li still insisted: "The second uncle will ask him to report to the official. Mr. Qin should have a way to make that servant tell the truth."

Chu Hanming's face turned black, and he said: "Li'er, Erlang and Lord Xie Hou asked you for talismans on weekdays, and you gave them without saying a word. When it's the second uncle's turn, you just push back. You just said that you respect the elders. Is that what you call respect?"

Nan Li raised her eyelids, and said in a neutral tone, "Yes, Second Uncle, I have double standards."

"..." The corner of Chu Hanming's mouth twitched. Although he didn't quite understand what the double standard meant, it must be a bad word.

He thought that Nan Li's temperament was soft rather than tough, so he said in a soft tone: "Li'er, it's Second Uncle who is being harsh, but Second Uncle's close friend wants to buy a mantra talisman, and he really doesn't want to harm anyone."

Nan Li shook her head lightly: "Second Uncle, don't waste your time talking. If you want amulets and town house charms, I can draw a few immediately."

Chu Hanming had blue veins on his forehead.

Simple talismans such as amulets and town house talismans can be bought casually in shops and temples. Doesn't he need to spend money and effort to please Nanli?

In the end, he turned around with a flick of his sleeves, but after taking two steps, he turned back again, put the bank notes on the table, and left with a cold snort.

Yuan Bao and Chun Bao were dumbfounded, they were not worth it for Nan Li.

"Princess, as the second young master said, the chicken soup is only worth a few dozen taels of silver. You are at a big loss." Yuan Bao muttered.

The second room has received Nanli's favor, Chu Hanming said he was grateful, but in fact he didn't have any extra thanks.

Tian's family is quite an individual. When Nanli was in the palace, she sent people to deliver pastries from time to time, and when she came back to live in the Hou's mansion, there were no shortage of pastries.

As an elder, this second master is really a bit outrageous.

Nan Li shrugged, and said indifferently: "It's okay, he's been broke recently."

The second uncle's money is not safe.

Yuan Bao and Chun Bao looked at each other, seeing that the concubine had already made up her mind, so naturally it was difficult to say anything.

As Nanli said, Chu Hanming went to respond cursingly. He had no skills, and he did an extremely easy job - looking at the warehouse.

The warehouse in this palace is not small, and everything is registered.

There are rules in the palace, fearing that someone will guard and steal, things will be counted every month.

But today the warehouse manager came to check and found that there was a white porcelain flower vase missing from the warehouse of the bamboo brand.

It was exactly the warehouse that Chu Hanming was guarding!

He was extremely panicked in his heart, he was in charge of the warehouse of the bamboo shop, and if he lost something, he would be regarded as a thief and would be punished!

"Boss Wang, I really didn't steal it, you have to trust me." Chu Hanming said, "You also know that my family will not be short of money now. As for doing such a risky thing?"

Manager Wang glanced at Chu Hanming, and said in a sharp voice, "Of course the miscellaneous family knows, but it is true that something is lost now, and it is not on the roster. How can the miscellaneous family explain to their superiors?"

Chu Hanming had a flash of inspiration, and hurriedly said: "I'll just buy a similar one and come back to make it up. Anyway, there are only white porcelain vases written on the register, and there are no pictures to testify. As long as Mr. Wang doesn't say anything, it won't be done." Someone knows."

Although he didn't steal the things, but he didn't take care of them effectively, so he couldn't escape the responsibility no matter what.

Even if the thief can be found, he will have to face thirty big boards.

His body is so fragile, how can he bear it.

It's just that he didn't expect that his 1000 taels of silver bills were still warm, and he would have to spend them so soon.

Manager Wang clicked his tongue and nodded, "That's a solution, but the miscellaneous family helped Master Chu, so Master Chu has to help the miscellaneous family, right?"

Chu Hanming's face showed embarrassment.

The best friend he and Nan Li mentioned is this Manager Wang.

Director Wang had already invited him to drink several times, and wanted to buy a mantra.

Chu Hanming was working under Manager Wang, and was usually lazy and slippery, so he thought that if he helped Manager Wang, he would have a better life in the future.

But I didn't expect that Nanli didn't give him any face. He has been avoiding Manager Wang these days.

Now that something happened, Manager Wang spoke again, and Chu Hanming couldn't avoid it: "Director Wang, it's not that I don't want to help, it's because my niece is very disciplined and she refuses to sell. Why don't Manager Wang go find her personally, You have a lot of face, and she will probably sell it to you."

Manager Wang snorted, and said with a sneer: "What did Lord Chu say? The Ninth Princess doesn't even give you face. How can she give face to the miscellaneous family?"
