A Hotpot for 100 Yuan
Li Ke's spirits were obviously lifted, he picked up the wine jar and personally poured a bowl for Fang Jun. The two clinked their glasses, raised their heads and laughed: "Haha, Erlang, you have a wonderful plan. I said the wrong thing just now. Erlang, please don't blame me!”
Fang Jun also smiled modestly." Your Highness is too polite. What is there to blame about this? However, it is difficult for a small trick to be refined…" Although he said that it was just a small trick, the smugness on his face could not be hidden. The strategy that he had casually thought of had shocked this famous sage king in history. He was full of a sense of accomplishment.
The sorrow that he had been suppressing for a while disappeared instantly. Li Ke couldn't hide the smile on his face, and his heart was itching. He no longer had the mood to drink here. He immediately said to Fang Jun,
"Thank you for your advice today, Erlang. I really can't wait any longer. I'll go back and make arrangements now. The sooner I implement it, the sooner the disaster victims will be relieved. When I succeed, I'll definitely invite Erlang to thank you!”
After saying that, he got up and prepared to leave. County Magistrate Chen Siwen saw that Li Ke was so anxious, so he could only follow.
Fang Jun stood up and cupped his hands.”
Unexpectedly, Li Ke turned around when he reached the door. He pointed at the steaming hot pot on the table and asked,"I wonder where Erlang got this hotpot from. Can you help me buy one too?”
Chen Siwen also liked the way he ate hotpot and echoed,"Erlang, I also want it. I hope Erlang can help.”
When Fang Jun heard this, he turned his eyes and looked at the two of them."The two of you may not know, but this hotpot was designed by me and forged by my family's blacksmith. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be a problem for me to give one to each of you. However, this hotpot is not only time-consuming and laborious to forge, but it's also made of copper.”
Li Siwen, who was drinking at the side, spat out a mouthful of wine. This kid was really bold?
Li Ke was also stunned for a moment. How dare he ask for 100 strings of coins for a kitchen tool?
Of course, he quickly came back to his senses and said with some emotion,"Erlang is indeed not an ordinary person. I was wrong in the past…"
Chen Siyun also nodded. This Erlang was really a ruthless person. He dared to ask for a hundred strings of coins for a copper pot. He was indeed thick-skinned.
However, he heard Li Ke say,"However, Erlang's words are reasonable. As the saying goes, the rarer an item is, the more valuable it is. This item is an innovative item that has created a brand new cooking style and obtained an unprecedented gourmet experience. Just based on this, 100 strings of coins is not expensive. How about this, I'll send someone to send the money over later. When it's ready, just send it over to me.”
Although Chen Siwen had a troubled look on his face, since Wu Wang had agreed to this price, he could only pinch his nose and accept it.
......
After Li Keren left, Fang Jun also relaxed a lot. After all, with such a handsome prince standing here, his limelight had been stolen. Even the maidservants were almost smitten…
But fortunately, I have never thought of relying on my face to make a living. I rely on my ability, just like Wu Wang Li Ke. No matter how good looking he is, no matter how famous he is, won't he still have to admire and praise me?
He sighed with emotion in his mind. Then, he turned his head to take a look and realized that Li Siwen was actually taking the plate on the table and pouring it into the hotpot. He immediately shouted,"Li Siwen, are you a good-for-nothing? Aren't you afraid of bursting to death?"
Li Siwen's mouth was full of meat as he replied vaguely,"It's none of your business. I'll eat as much as I want.”
Fang Jun wanted to continue mocking her, but he saw Li Siwen's younger sister, Yu Long, and his younger sister, Fang Xiuzhu, walking in with a few servant girls. They looked at the delicacies on the table and sniffed them. Fang Xiuzhu was a little surprised and said,
"Second brother, what are you eating? Why does it smell so good?"
Even Li Yulong swallowed her saliva and stared at the steaming hot pot. The two of them had just had some private conversation and had eaten a few desserts, but they did not have much in their stomachs. They should be hungry by now.
Fang Jun immediately ordered the servants to clean up the table and serve the dishes again. He also changed the mutton and vegetables, and the soup base. He called the two to eat and explained the wonders of the hotpot in detail.
Looking at Fang Jun, who was introducing hotpot to his sister in a soft voice, Li Siwen became even angrier. Li Siwen pursed his lips and said disdainfully,"What's wrong, Fang Er? Are you as gentle and refined as Prince Wu? I think you should forget about it. With your black face, you can't be compared to a handsome man like His Royal Highness Wu Wang.”
Before Fang Jun could reply, Li Yulong was unhappy."Second Brother, what are you talking about?"
Even Fang Xiuzhu felt that Second Brother Li had gone a little overboard. Her brother wasn't very handsome, but he had good facial features and was full of masculinity. No matter what, he couldn't be any better.
Fang Jun didn't seem to mind."My handsomeness is different from His Highness Wu Wang's. Only those who know how to appreciate it can understand it. You don't understand it at all."
