Chapter 181 The Emperor of the New Year Shopping Festival
Chapter 181 The emperor visiting the New Year Festival (second update)
The emperor continued to wander around, not like the Queen Mother who wanted to buy everything he saw. He just found it lively and interesting. Seeing the prosperity of the people, he felt that he was running the country well.
He stopped after taking a few steps, because his Minister of Revenue, Mr. Qin, was buying a hairpin from a jewelry stall and selecting gifts.
Mr. Qin, who was concentrating on his choice, suddenly turned around and saw the person behind him. He subconsciously rubbed his eyes. He understood when he looked at Wen Changling beside him. He quickly handed over his hand and said, "Sir, are you coming to hang out too?"
The emperor stared at the hairpin in her hand, "Who did you buy this for?"
Mr. Qin said coquettishly: "I'm sending my old wife to you. Your Majesty knows my wife's temperament. If it weren't for her bad legs and feet, I would have come to visit in person no matter what."
Mr. Qin's old wife is not short of money, but she doesn't hear anything about buying things or giving gifts. If she finds out about it, she will definitely take action, regardless of whether the things she bought are useful or not.
Many people in Kyoto know this preference.
However, the emperor was in high spirits and joked with his ministers, "I should take him for a walk. I don't think his legs and feet will be sharp when he feels happy."
Mr. Qin waved his hands repeatedly. She was afraid that his wife would go bankrupt if she bought it.
Soon the emperor saw another of his ministers, his General Shang, who was standing in front of a boot shop and gesturing with a pair of leather boots. He almost knelt down when he saw the emperor coming, and then he said cheerfully: "Come on
I saw General Wen wearing a pair of boots like this. He said they were warm and durable. They were not afraid of water and were very energetic when kicked out. Just now, this guy said that the toes of the shoes were also covered with iron plates. They were good, but not cheap.
.”
Those generals are miserable.
The emperor looked at the boots and they looked really good. The waiter on the side was talking about how much effort it took to make such a pair of boots and how powerful they were to wear. The last sentence was, "That's it. It just fits your feet. This is it."
fate."
General Shang was very moved, and the emperor waved his hand cheerfully, "I gave you these boots. Put them on and do your job well. I will win more battles in the future."
"I see that the soft armor is not bad. Well, many of the things on this stall look pretty good, but I still want them. I want them to be given to you as well."
It was as if joy fell from heaven. General Shang was so excited that tears filled his eyes. He was confused and felt that happiness came too suddenly.
He chose shoes without hesitation, and gritted his teeth and asked for a piece of soft armor that was more expensive than the shoes. Just as he was about to stop, the clever guy hurriedly said: "Sir, the stuff from our Baizhanfang is like this."
Such fine products, many military generals also come to us to select items. Take a look at these daggers, they are also very good."
Of course General Shang knew that Baizhanfang's products were good, but the prices were not cheap. How dare he squander the emperor's money? He finally shook his head.
The waiter behind him wisely stepped forward to pay the money, and General Shang smiled beautifully.
The emperor felt that General Shang was being reserved. If his general heard what he said, he would probably have to buy everything in the stall.
Mr. Qin sighed quietly. If he had known that he would not pay the money so quickly, why not wait for the emperor to give it to him?
After receiving the emperor's benefits, General Shang naturally had to devote himself to serving as the emperor's bodyguard. Along the way, he actually got a few more things the emperor bought for him. In the end, he even bought two kilograms of shortbread cookies that gave him half a kilogram for free.
Give it to him, and he will be so excited that he can't wait to take his big sword to the enemy camp and kill him, and come back with great achievements.
Just as he was about to leave, General Shang said excitedly: "Sir, all the things I bought just now come with lottery tickets. The time for the lottery is coming."
"lottery?"
The emperor remembered that every time after paying the money, the buyer would give a flower ticket, saying that he could draw a lottery.
"Let's go and have a look."
At this moment, the juggling show on the stage had come to an end. General Shang squeezed through the crowd to clear the way for the emperor. When the juggling show was over, a large wooden box was brought up.
The people around me happily held the flower tickets in their hands. Yesterday, someone won a hundred taels. They were so jealous when they handed it over on the spot. They didn't know if they were lucky today.
More and more people came to wait for the lottery. Qin Feng stepped forward and waved in front of everyone, and announced the start of the lottery happily. The people below immediately started to squeeze forward. In order to show fairness, Qin Feng said with a smile: "Today I will invite
One person comes up to draw a lottery, who is willing to come?"
When he glanced at the person standing in the front row, he felt that he looked familiar. When he looked at Prince Wen again, he almost knelt down. Is that the emperor?
I visited the newspaper office last time.
Wen Changling glanced at him, and Qin Feng quickly calmed down and shouted in a voice that was almost split: "Please come forward and draw the lottery for everyone."
The emperor was overjoyed and rubbed his hands involuntarily. He had never done such a thing before.
When I got on the stage and looked at those eyes full of expectations, I felt inexplicably proud and satisfied. Under the guidance of Qin Feng, I reached out and touched the box for a while. Qin Feng said: "This time I won the third prize.
The first prize is a pair of couplets and a door god."
The emperor took out a flower ticket, and Qin Feng eagerly stepped forward to take it and read loudly, "This gentleman has drawn the number seven thirty two three. Is seven thirty two three here? Seven thirty two three."
The people below all lowered their heads to check the tickets. Even General Shang looked very excited. Suddenly, someone in the crowd raised his hand excitedly, "I, it's me, I'm 7323."
Everyone cast envious glances, as both the couplets and the door god were needed during the Chinese New Year, especially the door god, which was not cheap.
The winner happily checked the flower ticket, and then continued to stand after receiving his own prize. He still had the flower ticket.
The emperor drew the second prize again, and the second prize was amazing. It included a pair of silver circles. A man with a blushing face stepped forward to claim the prize. After taking the silver circle, he gave it to his wife to wear, and both of them were beaming with joy.
It was the last draw of the day, and everyone was excited. Today's big prize was a set of face masks worth a hundred taels. Under everyone's expectant eyes, the emperor slowly pulled out a flower ticket, and Qin Feng chanted loudly:
"Let us congratulate Sanjiu Erqi. Is Sanjiu Erqi here?"
"Hahaha, yes, Sanjiu Erqi is here with me."
General Shang can't wait to look up to the sky and scream. He didn't spend a penny on so many things today, and now he actually got the top prize, hahahahaha~~~
The emperor also smiled and looked down at his hands. His hands were also amazing.
In the eyes of everyone with envy and hatred, General Shang, who was packed with bags and bags, came to the stage to receive his face. Qin Feng asked cheerfully: "Sir, who are you going to give the winning face to?"
The general's voice was louder than Qin Feng's, "Who else can I have? My daughter-in-law."
The people below laughed loudly, and Qin Feng invited everyone to come again at the same time tomorrow to draw the lottery. The people below laughed and dispersed.
Coming out of the New Year Festival, the emperor was filled with emotion and still had unfinished thoughts, "Go to Prince Annan's Mansion."
She wanted to praise his sixth wife.
