Five twenty-nine bribes(2/2)
Qi Zhao quickly drank this cup, which was sweet, but did not have the spicy and long taste of white wine. Instead, it was as quiet and peaceful as the green lotus on the summer night.
He also discovered a wonderful thing. The wine was cold when it entered his mouth, but it felt warm and warm when it reached his stomach.
I couldn't help but be amazed.
Lian Zining picked up a chopstick dish and reached out to Qi Zhao to signal. Qi Zhao reached out to pick up a few chopsticks. First, he tasted the matsutake mushroom, but found that the matsutake mushroom was a little fresher than what he had eaten in the capital. You know, the one he ate was made by a fast horse transported from the Yunnan-Guizhou border and then immediately putting it into the pot.
Thousands of miles northeast to the southwest, these ingredients are transported from there for a while, and the cost of the ingredients alone is hundreds of taels of silver!
There is a beautiful woman who is a simple and easy-to-play person, and even Zining is also a talkative person, but the meal is full of fun.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Lian Zining suddenly clapped his hands. The maid signaled, smiled slightly at Lian Zining, turned around and went out. After a while, he turned back again, and behind him were six guards of the general's mansion with big and round waists.
The guards were in groups, with wooden bars as thick as arms on their shoulders, and under the bars were a large box more than five feet long and three feet wide. I don’t know what was inside, but they looked extremely heavy. These big men were exhausted and panting.
The box was placed aside, Lian Zining waved his hand, and the maid and the guard retreated, leaving only Lian Zining in the room.
Seeing Qi Zhao looking at him with a stunned look, Zining smiled slightly without saying a word. He stood up, walked to the box, and opened it.
Suddenly, a golden light filled the room under the light, illuminating Qi Zhao's eyes.
He looked closely and saw that the three-necked big boxes were filled with gold ingots. Each piece of the gold ingot had a length of about one inch thick and two inches wide. The yellow color was red. This color was very familiar to Qi Zhao, which was a symbol of pure gold. He was not a clean official, and there were many bribes he had received. You could see at a glance that a piece of gold ingot of this size weighed at least ten kilograms! And the gold ingots contained in this big box were more than dozens of yuan.
The gold contained in these three large boxes is at least tens of thousands of taels! It is no wonder that the strong men and strong men just now are so tired. In the middle of the Ming Dynasty, gold was far more expensive than silver. If these gold was converted into silver, it would be at least 150,000 taels! If it was replaced with the silver notes of the largest Datong Money House in the Ming Dynasty, it would be just a thick and big one. After reading it, it was no big deal. If it was replaced with real silver, it would be enough to fill a room. If it was replaced with gold ingots, it would be full of three boxes, with golden light and very visual impact. It was also 150,000 taels, which gave people the feeling that the latter was dozens of times stronger!
This is like it’s not a lot of worry about swiping a card in later generations, but if it’s changed to cash, it’s a lot of reasons to feel sorry for it.
The golden light shone brightly in your eyes. Qi Zhao's eyes became obsessed with you. He was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't help but thrust his throat up and down, and swallowed heavily.
He then reacted, was shocked and stood up in a hurry, and said in a hurry: "Brother, what do you mean?" (Welcome to your support, is my greatest motivation.)
