Chapter 211 Blood loss!
Here, Patriarch Lu and the others are still discussing how to solve this matter.
Suddenly, the butler hurried in and said respectfully, "Master, Duke Lu is here."
The head of the Lu family was stunned and subconsciously asked: "Why is Cheng Yaojin here?"
Patriarch Cui's expression immediately darkened upon hearing this.
"What you said is that he is the owner of Chang'an Winery. Now our winery's business has plummeted due to the deterioration of the wine, and his Chang'an Winery's business is booming again. He is too happy. He must have come to see their jokes."
"But he is Lu Guogong after all, we know his reason for coming, and we can't keep him out."
Patriarch Lu was helpless.
Who is Cheng Yaojin?Now His Majesty Qingfeng's Lu Guogong, they are just a small aristocratic family, how dare they turn him away?
"Forget it, invite him in."
After a while, Cheng Yaojin walked up to them with brisk steps, a particularly proud smile on his face.
"Hey, isn't this the owner of Patriarch Lu? Look at the beautiful weather, why is he so sad?"
The face of Lu's family was even darker, but they still flattered the heads of the family.
"Today's wind is so strong that it actually brought the Duke to my house."
"Isn't Mr. Lu Guogong busy at the military camp these days? Why do you have time to come to our place?"
"Duke Lu seems to be a lot taller recently. Sure enough, Duke Lu is worthy of being the founding father of the country. He is so majestic."
Cheng Yaojin chuckled, sat down on his own, and poured tea and water in one go.
"Don't tell me, the tea in Master Lu's mansion is really fragrant."
After a pause, he said again:
"By the way, are you guys discussing something when you get together? Will I disturb you here? Oh, it's okay, just pretend that I don't exist."
The corners of Patriarch Lu's eyes twitched.
"My lord is here to entertain my lord first, and the sports can be put aside."
"Oh, it's okay. There has been a lot of commotion in Chang'an City recently. It is said that it was your wine that killed people. Tsk, tsk, tsk, how could you be so careless? You have finally made some progress, but you are ruining it like this. What a pity."
The corners of the eyes of the Lu family were almost dancing, looking at the tall and thick man in front of him, he couldn't say anything, and he had to wait respectfully. If he hadn't had a better heart, he would probably have died by now.
Several other family heads were also criticized by him, and they were all so angry that they vomited blood in their hearts.
But there was no other way. He was Lu Guogong, a relative of the emperor. They couldn't afford to offend him, so they could only endure it one by one.
At the end, Cheng Yaojin sneered and said that he was addicted, and after drinking the tea in the cup, he pretended to comfort him and said: "Forget it, forget it, let's not talk about your sad things. My father-in-law's visit this time is actually a I want to come to buy you a drink."
Patriarch Cui was taken aback for a moment, looked at Patriarch Lu, and then at the other Patriarchs, really couldn't figure out why Cheng Yaojin would say such a thing?
"Your Majesty, you just said that the city of Chang'an is full of turmoil, and the wine in our wine shop is useless. What did you buy it for?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, if you buy the wine here, it will be almost like boiling water."
Could it be that Cheng Yaojin wanted to buy it back and sell it?
Everyone speculated this.
Cheng Yaojin didn't bother to explain to them.
"Of course I have my reasons for buying. Do I need to explain to you what my father-in-law wants to buy?"
"No no."
Everyone quickly denied it.
Lu's family turned their minds quickly, seeing that Cheng Yaojin didn't seem to be joking with them, and after thinking about it, he asked:
"Then how much is the Duke planning to pay for our wine?"
Cheng Yaojin blurted out directly.
"One-third the price."
When all the family heads heard this, they were furious on the spot.
It's only one-third of the price, which is obviously a loss.
"No, no, no," Patriarch Cui refused directly: "Your Excellency, you are only paying one-third of the price to buy our wine. Aren't we losing money?"
"That's right, we have a lot of money just for the cost."
Hearing this, Cheng Yaojin sneered: "Your drinks are useless to begin with. My father-in-law can pay one-third of the price, so I bought them for the sake of your pity."
After a pause, he said again: "Anyway, I've already said what I said. It's up to you whether you sell it or not. The trade unions in your country will give you three days to give you an answer after three days of consideration. After all, your drinks are abolished now, except for me. , I guess no one will buy it. The pros and cons are up to you to think about.”
After finishing speaking, Cheng Yaojin left without looking back, leaving only the heads of a few families in a mess.
"Patriarch Lu, I think it can be sold to him. His Excellency is right. Now that our wine is no different from waste water, there will be no situation where we can sell it. If we can't sell it, we will directly lose money. , not to mention how much you earn back, even if you don’t earn a single cent back.”
"Yes, but if it is sold to the Duke, we can at least earn a little bit back."
Patriarch Lu naturally knew the pros and cons of it, and stared closely at the direction Cheng Yaojin left for a long time, then nodded and said: "It's really good, it seems that there is no other way to recover blood except selling it to the Duke."
"Yes, then sell it to him. One-third of the price is one-third. It's better than not making any money at all."
So, not long after Cheng Yaojin left, Patriarch Lu and the others called him to the restaurant.
In the room, the table was covered with all kinds of dishes, even drinks, they specially ordered the waiter to go to Chang'an Winery to buy them.
"My lord, the matter you just mentioned, several of us just discussed it, and you bought our wine because you said you pity us, so can you pity us a little more? Raise the price a little bit. "
On the way here, the head of the Lu family had already made up his mind. He could sell it to him, but as a businessman, the price would be higher if the price was higher.
But despite their good words and all kinds of flattery, Cheng Yaojin insisted on buying their waste wine at one-third of the original price.
There was no way, Master Lu and the others could only reluctantly sell the wine to Cheng Yaojin. They lost a lot of money and their hearts were bleeding.
But so what?After all, it was Cheng Yaojin who was willing to buy their wine, otherwise, not to mention earning a little back, he would not earn a penny.
Several family heads are on the verge of crying but have no tears. Look at me, I see you staring at me with big eyes and small eyes, and it hurts to death.
That's money, white money, just like that.
If they hadn't had better hearts, they would have been pissed to death on the spot.
