Rebirth: Domineering Wife

Chapter 260 The Monk's Deal

Everyone drank some tea and ate some fruit, and then wandered around the yard.

The Shang Mansion is still very big, and the other people didn't know much about it, so they wandered around. Anyway, this other courtyard is also very big. There are pavilions and gardens outside, and everyone didn't feel bored.

"Today is my 50th birthday, thank you all for coming, I will do it first as a respect."

Master Shang looked at the people sitting below and smiled, stood up and said while holding a wine glass.

"Master Shang is too polite. I wish Master Shang good fortune like the East China Sea, and a longer life than Nanshan."

A gentleman smiled, stood up and said a happy word.

The others immediately agreed, and everyone began to drink and congratulate.

Master Shang looked at the crowd and smiled, then waved his hand: "Everyone eats and drinks well, you're welcome."

This courtyard is very big, the first person in front is Mr. Shang and his wife, and next to them is Tang Cang and the others. It is already three quarters in the afternoon, and everyone feels hungry, so they start eating.

The people who sat facing each other were all people with good status in the imperial city, and the round table below was the other people invited. Shang Hanyu ate for a while, and then went directly to the table of Gale Wind Guild.

"Eat and drink well. If you get drunk, you can rest at my house. The room is enough."

Shang Hanyu smiled at everyone and raised his glass.

"Don't worry, we won't be polite."

Duan Rong smiled, and then said: "By the way, Han Yu, when we came here, we didn't see a place to collect gifts at the door. When will we give this gift?"

It was the first time for them to participate in a birthday in the imperial city. When they came, they didn't see the table with gifts at the door, and the others didn't intend to give gifts, so he still asked each other.

Hearing this, Shang Hanyu smiled and put down the wine glass in his hand: "I'm sorry, I forgot to tell you that the customs in this imperial city are different from those in other places. In other places, gifts are given when you come. , this imperial city is giving gifts after dinner."

"So this is ah."

After hearing this, everyone nodded in a sudden realization. They all understood that the customs of each place are different, so the timing of gift giving is also different.

"Don't worry, after the meal is finished, there will be maids to collect it from table to table."

Shang Hanyu smiled. This is actually the habit of the Imperial City. Of course, there are also disadvantages. It will compare the value of the gift.

Shang Hanyu sat for a while and then went back. He had a special status and couldn't stay here for too long, but even so, many people knew that the merchant's young master had joined the Gale Guild.

"Giving gifts after the meal, then there will be a comparison."

Luochen said thoughtfully while eating the food.

"It doesn't matter, anyway, those people in front are definitely more expensive than what we gave."

Duan Rong shook his head indifferently, the gifts they bought were all ordinary ones, which fit their identities very well.

Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but smile. Anyway, they came to Shang's house to attend Mr. Shang's birthday, more because of Shang Hanyu than because of their relationship with the monk's family.

"Brother Shang, is Hanyu feeling better now?"

Looking at Shang Hanyu who was toasting behind Master Shang, the acquaintances looked at each other and asked.

"Okay, okay, this kid just lacks exercise."

Master Shang smiled, and said to Shang Hanyu who was at the side: "Hurry up and give a toast to all uncles."

"Uncles and uncles, I would like to offer you a toast."

Shang Hanyu smiled and drank the wine in one gulp.

"Okay, okay, like your father."

The people on the side smiled, they were people who had known each other for a long time, Master Shang chatted with them for a while, and Shang Hanyu took this opportunity to withdraw.

At this time, not only is Master Shang's birthday, but many people will introduce their daughters. After all, Shang Hanyu is not young anymore, so he should also consider marriage.

With foresight, Shang Hanyu made excuses to slip away before everyone had time to speak, and looked at Mrs. Shang who was not far away and shook her head helplessly.

"This kid is still a bit naughty."

Mrs. Shang looked at her sister at the side, and couldn't help smiling. Although her words were full of helplessness, there was still a deep pampering in her eyes.

"Han Yu is still young, so I'm not in a hurry. Those masters can't wait for Han Yu to get married tomorrow."

Mrs. Shang's elder sister is also the wife of everyone. The relationship between the two sisters is very good. Of course, they dote on this nephew very much.

"Don't worry, it's still about Hanyu herself."

Mrs. Shang smiled, and sat chatting with her sister.

After everyone had lunch, it wasn't long before it was time to give gifts.

"Now is the time to give gifts. A servant girl will come later, just give the things."

Shang Hanyu smiled at everyone, then looked around and said, "You don't need to prepare heavy ones, you can do whatever you want."

This gift is indifferent, their Shang family does not lack that little money, it's just that when everyone comes, they will give some gifts.

"How can you say that, you are here, of course you have to prepare well, don't you have any special gifts here?"

Guo Zijie actually didn't know much about these things. It was the first time for them to give gifts when they came to the Imperial City, and this gift might not be particularly suitable.

"There is nothing to pay attention to, even if it is a gold coin, there is no problem."

Shang Hanyu quickly waved his hands, and continued: "Actually, I'm very happy that you guys are here. It doesn't matter whether you give my father a present or not. You don't have to think about it so much."

"Since it's here, of course the gift must be given."

Duan Rong smiled, and then a maid came over, but there seemed to be pens, ink, paper and inkstones on the other side's tray.

"Why are there pens, ink, paper and inkstones?"

Qing Yuxi looked curiously at the pen and paper on the other party's plate, raised her head and asked.

"Returning to the young master, the Patriarch asked us to record who gave the gift and what gift was given, so that we can return the gift later."

The maid saluted respectfully. It is their custom here to write down the gifts from the guests. If they have a wedding in the future, they need to add some before giving to each other.

"That's it."

Qing Yuxi nodded, took a pen and wrote: "Mo Chenxiu Qingyu Xifufu: a bottle of fourth-level Healing Mysterious Pill, a glass bead lamp."

After finishing writing, he put the prepared gift on the plate of the servant girl behind.

Next, everyone wrote down their names and gifts one by one.

"I didn't expect this to happen."

Duan Rong looked at the maid who was leaving, and took a sip of tea.

"Aren't other places the same as the Imperial City?"

Seeing everyone's astonishment, Mo Chenxiu couldn't help but smile.

"It's not the same. In Nanling City, gifts are usually delivered at the door, but returning gifts is almost the same."

Guo Zijie smiled. In fact, they would also have the idea of ​​returning the gift.

The maids presented their things, and Master Shang, who was sitting at the top, skipped the presents from everyone, and set his sights on the names of Qing Yuxi and Mo Chenxiu.

"Father, what's wrong?"

Shang Hanyu, who was on the side, obviously felt the change in his father, and asked suspiciously.

Master Shang shook his head with a smile, and bowed his hands at everyone: "Thank you for coming today. I asked the housekeeper to prepare some gifts, and I hope you don't dislike them."

"Where is it, Master Shang was joking."

"Will not."

Everyone smiled, no matter what the Shangfu gave, they didn't care.

After everyone left one after another, Master Shang asked Shang Hanyu to invite everyone from Gale Wind Guild to the backyard.

"Master Shang."

Seeing Master Shang approaching, everyone immediately bowed their hands and said hello.

Originally, Mo Chenxiu and the others were going to leave, but Shang Hanyu stopped them when they left, saying that Master Shang invited them to the backyard.

"You are welcome, sit down as you please."

Master Shang smiled and motioned for the maid beside him to pour tea.

Shang Hanyu sat at the side, took a sip of tea, and asked, "Father, what did you ask Duan Rong and the others to do?"

"It's like this. I saw Mr. Mo's congratulatory gift and wanted to discuss a business with Mr. Mo."

Master Shang smiled. He saw that Mo Chenxiu and the others had a bottle of Profound Healing Pill. He had seen this pill before. Shang Hanyu bought a bottle before, and the effect was surprisingly good.

"What business does Master Shang want to talk to me about?"

Mo Chenxiu took a sip of tea, didn't care, and asked with a light smile.

Master Shang smiled, and said: "I think Mr. Mo is an alchemist. I think Mr. Mo should have the alchemy formula for curing the mysterious alchemy. The business I want to talk about is Mr. Mo's alchemy formula."

"father."

When Shang Hanyu heard this, his face became serious. The alchemist's alchemy formula is the root of the alchemist. How could his father let Mo Chenxiu take out the alchemy formula.

Seeing his son like this, Master Shang waved his hands and said with a smile: "Listen to me first. Everyone else should know that Mr. Mo is an alchemist. This kind of elixir with excellent curative effect can be hidden for a while, but cannot be hidden for a lifetime. , I think you should know better than me that the alchemists behind the Lingxin Pavilion are not generous. I think Mr. Mo will take out the alchemy formula and cooperate with the monks. Once they can divert other people's attention, they can also Save some trouble for Gale Wind Guild."

"Master Shang is right."

Mo Chenxiu nodded in agreement, and then took out the alchemy from the storage ring: "This is the alchemy for healing mystic pills. Master Shang can ask the alchemist enshrined in the mansion to refine it, and the profit I get is [-]% of my profit." That’s enough, and the [-]% can be given to the Gale Wind Guild, and it’s my contribution to the Guild.”

"This won't work, Chen Xiu, you can just keep the money yourself."

When Duan Chengxuan at the side heard this, he immediately refused.

This recipe was brought out by Mo Chenxiu, and the share obtained is the other party's, and should not be given to the guild.

"It doesn't matter, I'm an alchemist. What I have the most is not pills, but pills. This pill is also adapted by me on the basis of other pills."

Mo Chenxiu smiled indifferently, and then looked at the crowd: "Actually, I have considered this issue before, and now the proposal of Master Shang is quite in line with my wishes."

This alchemy is in his hand, and he is also keeping it. He has a lot of alchemy in his hand. It is also good to use this to relieve the pressure of the Gale Guild.
