Chapter 1337: Are you serious?
Mrs. Bai never expected that Tang Bao would actually settle this account.
Moreover, one hundred thousand taels per pill?
The eldest lady of the Bai family almost fainted.
"Why don't you go and rob it?" the eldest lady of the Bai family blurted out.
Tang Bao seemed familiar with this sentence.
Tang Bao rubbed his ears and said innocently, "Why should I rob? That's what bandits do!"
The eldest lady of the Bai family: "..."
Aren't you a bandit?!
You are more ruthless than bandits and robbers!
The eldest lady of the Bai family was so angry that she gasped for breath.
Tang Bao continued righteously, "Madam, I'm afraid you've misunderstood me. I'm a princess who was personally appointed by the Emperor. I have my own fiefdom and mansion, status, and wealth. Money is like dirt to me. I abide by the law and I pity the poor and the weak..."
Tang Bao praised herself without changing her expression.
The eldest lady of the Bai family: "..."
I've never seen anyone so shameless!
Money is like dirt to you, so why are you so fussy about a few meals?
Money is like dirt to you, so you still want to count the cost of a few bottles of medicine?
Just as the eldest lady of the Bai family was about to speak, Xuanyuan Jin curled his lips and looked at Tang Bao and said, "Father knows that although you are young, you are kind-hearted and like to help the world and the people. Therefore, he canonized you as a double princess as a reward."
The eldest lady of the Bai family: "..."
The words came to his lips, but he swallowed them back.
Xuanyuan Jin even brought up the emperor, what else could she say?
At this moment, the eldest lady of the Bai family also felt the humiliation of being treated without honorable conduct.
Tang Bao immediately smiled with her eyes curved, looked at Xuanyuan Jin, and said happily: "Uncle Emperor has a keen eye and saw through my true nature at a glance. Uncle Emperor is the most wise and powerful!"
Even Bai Shuqing's mouth twitched, and then he looked at his aunt-in-law with sympathy.
How can the aunt-in-law be so narrow-minded that she actually dares to confront Su Tang?
He directly brought up a mountain to brag about himself, aren't you asking for trouble?
Tang Bao boasted about herself, flattered the emperor, and then looked at the eldest lady.
"During last year's Autumn Examination, Bai Shuzhi ate the meals we prepared starting from the second round. We were worried he wouldn't have enough, so we prepared a total of twenty meals for him over six days..."
"Also, there are some wake-up pills to wake up the brain and boost energy during the day, some tranquilizing pills to help with sleep at night, and some protein pills to boost immunity... Prepare two bottles of each for him...
"As for this year's Spring Examination, we prepared all the meals for the nine days..."
"Oh, by the way, later on, in order to do the Zheng family a favor, he asked for one more portion..."
As Tang Bao spoke, Mrs. Bai's expression became uglier and uglier.
Tang Bao, however, was very serious and calculated, counting on her fingers.
Bai Shuqing felt more and more sympathetic towards her aunt.
I'm afraid my aunt is going to lose money.
Although the Bai family has not split up, there are fixed rules for the expenses of each branch.
If it exceeds the limit, each family will have to bear the responsibility.
Obviously, Bai Shuzhi has gone beyond the ordinary this time!
Tang Bao continued counting on her fingers, chattering, "There are also heart-warming patches and all kinds of pills. The types and quantities are much more than during the Autumn Examination..."
"I've always been kind. I'll give you a friendly price for the food, ten taels of silver per portion. The warming stickers will be one tael of silver each. As for the pills..."
"Stop!" The eldest lady of the Bai family couldn't bear to listen any longer and shouted in disbelief, "Just a little food, and ten taels of silver per portion? And that heart-warming patch, just a small paper package, and it's only one tael of silver?"
The eldest lady of the Bai family widened her eyes.
Xia Siya looked at the eldest lady of the Bai family and a smile appeared on her face.
Very good! This Bai family's eldest lady is going to bleed twice as much!
As expected, Tang Bao looked at the Bai family's eldest lady in surprise and said, "Is it too little? That's right, as the third young master of the Bai family, a meal at a restaurant would cost no less than a hundred taels of silver. A mere ten taels of silver is indeed unworthy of his status as the third young master of the Bai family..."
Tang Bao nodded in self-reflection at this point, and then said, "This is my inconsiderateness. Because I have a good relationship with Bai Shuqing, I thought of giving you a discount and only charging you the cost price. But now it seems that doing so would actually be an insult to the Third Young Master's status..."
"Then let's do this. We'll charge the original price: twenty taels of silver per meal, and two taels of silver per warm-hearted sticker. The total is three hundred and six hundred and eighteen... three hundred and nine hundred and twenty-seven... multiplied by twenty..."
"Oh, the food is a total of 1,420 taels, the Heart Warming Patch is 304 taels, and as for the pills..."
Tang Bao paused here, and said with an expression of "I am a conscientious doctor" and said, "I don't ask for a random price. The medicine I sold to the old man of the Su family was a life-saving medicine. It was made by boiling dozens of rare medicinal herbs that were more than a thousand years old. So asking for 100,000 taels of silver is also a conscience price. It's not expensive at all."
"As for the pills for your Third Young Master, the cost isn't that high, so the price is much lower. The cheapest ones are only a few dozen taels of silver each. It's just that there are so many quantities and varieties, so the total is..."
Tang Bao mumbled for a while, and finally said casually: "Twenty-two thousand eight hundred and ninety-seven taels!"
Madam: “…”
Let me faint!
"Add in the money for the meals and the warm-hearted gift, and the total is twenty-four thousand six hundred and twenty-one taels!" Tang Bao ignored the look of the Bai family's eldest lady as if struck by lightning, and said crisply, "How about this, round off the decimal, and the eldest lady will give twenty-four thousand six hundred and twenty taels!"
Tang Bao was very generous and gave the change of one or two taels of silver.
As soon as Tang Bao finished speaking, Xia Siya's eyes lit up immediately.
Very good!
Sister Fuya is going to make some money again!
By the way, why does it make people so happy to take advantage of the Bai family?
The last bit of sadness in Xia Siya's heart was completely replaced by the excitement of making a fortune.
Mrs. Su Liu curled her lips, looked at Tang Bao with dissatisfaction, and said, "You are so stingy!"
Just over 20,000 taels of silver, too little!
Where's the courage you had when you killed the old master of the Su family? !
——Open your mouth and ask for one hundred thousand taels!
Although Su Liusao had never witnessed it with her own eyes, she had heard people describe it in vivid detail.
Tang Bao actually thinks it is too little.
Because of this marriage, Xia Siya's reputation was damaged, and no amount of money could make up for it.
However, the cost of those things is really not worth a few silver coins.
If you ask for too much, your conscience will hurt.
Alas! Uncle Emperor was right, he was really too kind!
Tang Bao reflected helplessly in her heart for a second.
In fact, Tang Bao had another concern. She was worried that if she asked for too much, the eldest lady of the Bai family would give up and refuse to acknowledge it.
In that case, the loss would outweigh the gain.
She felt that this amount should be around the bottom line that the eldest lady of the Bai family could bear.
"It's indeed too little." Xuanyuan Jin said slowly.
Bai Shuqing: “…”
Look at Su Liusao, then look at Xuanyuan Jin...
Are you serious?
