After all, looking at the current situation, only by drawing lots can there be a chance of survival.
Only by drawing lots can he have a chance to get this fine wine.
And now these people are so rejected, how can this not make him nervous?
It's just that at this moment, none of the people around here is something he can afford to offend.
It is no exaggeration to say that any one of them crushed him, which made him stand there for a while and began to feel melancholy.
As for opening your mouth to refute the words of those housekeepers?
He still dare not do this.
After all, other people speak lightly. If he really comes out to refute the housekeeper at this time, then I am afraid that what awaits him will definitely end badly.
It's impossible to say that someone will take this opportunity to push himself to the end.
As a little centurion, let alone losing his official position, even ruining his family is not impossible.
It may be a bit serious to say so, and no one would do it, but the fact is exactly the opposite, this is in ancient society.
It is entirely possible to provoke a person because of a sentence, and this person will not reason with you, but will directly beat you to death.
Don't doubt, this era is like this, this society is like this, this society will not reason with you, it pays attention to whose fist is bigger.
For a moment, this guy stood there terrified. At the same time, he looked at the shopkeeper with longing eyes. How he wished that the shopkeeper could directly deny the ideas of these people, directly reject them, and continue this process. A lottery thing.
Not only the centurion, but also the housekeeper of the county magistrate's family had the same idea.
When this guy spoke just now, he was also stunned by the people around him, which made him dare not talk nonsense now.
He was afraid of causing unnecessary trouble to his master because of his words.
Just like that centurion, as long as these people want to deal with them, as long as there is a housekeeper, they can clean up his master thoroughly, obediently, and it is not impossible to replace him.
And these two people are just representatives. Among the people present, although they are all butlers of powerful officials.
But don't forget one thing, that is, there are only 200 jars of wine here, and 200 jars of wine are not enough for them to share. It is no exaggeration to say that at least half of the people here will return empty-handed.
Because of this, these people began to look forward to what the shopkeeper said in their hearts. You know, if they are really strong, they will definitely not be able to grab those people, so they are also thinking now, why not just take a gamble on this, in case such a lottery catches such a one and two altars, then this is not a problem. Is it a perfect thing?
And just when everyone was looking at the shopkeeper, after those powerful officials' servants refused the request, the shopkeeper just smiled, with a calm look on his face. I didn't take these people into my heart.
At the same time, he looked at these people very calmly. As for what they said?
He didn't take it to heart at all, but waved directly behind him. Immediately, those little shop assistants came over carrying the big wooden barrel, and at the same time put it directly in front of everyone, throwing it on the ground. Fang stood on both sides.
And at this moment, the shopkeeper's voice sounded at the same time, resounding in the ears of everyone present:
"Hehe, maybe I didn't make it too clear before. I didn't think of this idea, but the one above me thought of it."
When he said this, he still didn't forget to cup his hands in the direction of the palace. The meaning was very obvious. This was not a request from a little shopkeeper, but the person who made the request Who it is, hehe, needless to say, you can guess for yourself, you must be able to guess it.
that's it. After this sentence fell, everyone's heart thumped, and at the same time, the servants of the officials also sighed secretly in their hearts. It seems that today's incident is inevitable.
Sure enough, the shopkeeper's words further confirmed this point, and the shopkeeper continued to say:
"So you should know how to do this matter, right?
As I said before, this is not my idea, so it is not a matter of discussion. Today, I prepared bamboo sticks for everyone, and the number of corresponding wine jars is written on the bamboo sticks.
Of course, there are so many people present, so the number of bamboo sticks is naturally quite a lot, and not every bamboo stick has a wine jar on it.
What I want to tell you is that a large part of this is unprecedented without the right to buy alcohol at all.
Of course, there is another point I want to mention earlier, that is, this draw is only for today.
And what is drawn today is tomorrow's, because today's wine has been sold out, so now we draw tomorrow's lottery, whoever gets the lottery, can use this bamboo stick to buy in the store tomorrow.
Of course, for the sake of fairness, after the lottery is drawn, the person who draws the lottery must be registered in the register, that is, to prevent other people from taking this bamboo stick to claim it tomorrow.
Let's put it this way, if the person who got the lottery today doesn't come tomorrow, it means that the day will be automatically canceled.
If someone else buys it with this sign, then I'm sorry, it's impossible to sell you alcohol.
As for what to do with the jar of wine left today? Hehe, I can only take it to tomorrow and deal with it together.
Well, now these bamboo sticks are placed in this wooden barrel.
Have you seen that device over there? The guardrail over there is prepared for everyone, and now everyone will line up and draw lots in turn. "
Following the shopkeeper's explanation, everyone instantly understood what was going on. At the same time, when they looked at the door of the store, they saw that there were many shop assistants there at this time, and they made a fence out of bamboo. Come on, this fence is long, only allowing one person to pass through, but it is very long. After it grows to a certain extent, it turns a corner and continues to rotate inside.
I haven't seen this thing before at all. As for the 21st century, this is a normal channel dedicated to queuing.
Of course, the current channel is very simple and crude, not as delicate as the thick one. Of course, this is enough. After all, what he wants is the effect, not the beauty. As for the degree of beauty, in the future, let the carpenter Just make a custom batch.
And after the shopkeeper's words fell, those housekeepers who originally wanted to refuse could only sigh helplessly at this time. No matter the empress or empress, they are not something they can afford to offend.
It was also because of this that they didn't dare to do it again, so they just waved their hands and walked over there with a group of servants.
After seeing them leave, the rest of the housekeepers also followed, but it was a tacit understanding that these people all paid attention to a sequence.
After all, they knew exactly who the master was. Although they said they couldn't get to the front to buy all the drinks, at least there was no problem getting to the front of the queue.
As for the centurion? Hehe, he was naturally at the end of the row, and he wanted to go to the front, but no one would bother him, including the servant of the county magistrate's family. When he saw him, he also showed a haughty look Just kidding, which one of these people is not a bully?
In front of people who are more powerful than me, I dare not take a breath, but in front of these people who are inferior to me, then I am the kind of uncle, the kind whose head is tilted to the sky, and I will never look at it You take a look.
As for this point, the centurion was clearly aware of it, and at the same time, he didn't have any complaints. After all, this society is like this. He knows better than anyone that this society is all about a status.
Especially as a centurion, he is just a small soldier, and with such an identity, no one will take care of you in this society.
But there was no other way, and he could only stand silently at the back of the crowd.
And I have to say that this special guardrail for queuing is really easy to use. After entering here, the originally noisy crowd became orderly in an instant. Although it is said that there is a priority in queuing, the scramble never happened again.
Seeing this, the shopkeeper couldn't help nodding his head, and at the same time, he was full of admiration for that one. His Majesty is indeed a fairy.
Such things can be imagined, and in this way, it can be regarded as a complete solution to the problem of these people's confusion. With this kind of device, there will definitely be no more riots in the future.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but start planning. After this matter is over, he must immediately go to the carpenter's workshop to order a batch of high-quality guardrails. .
In the future, he also made up his mind that any customer who wants to enter the store must walk through this corridor.
Of course, let's not talk about the thoughts in the shopkeeper's mind at this time, but only talk about the thoughts in the minds of those housekeepers, especially those high-ranking housekeepers. When the dozens of servants followed behind, the corners of their mouths couldn't help laughing.
Just kidding, although this time there will be no more privileges, but don't forget, they have a lot of people, and if everyone gets a lottery, he doesn't believe that these dozens of people can't get dozens of jugs of wine.
Although it is not possible to have a pot for everyone, at least half of them can be drawn.
As long as he can draw half of it, there will be twenty or thirty jars of wine in the account today. In this way, he will be able to do business no matter what when he goes back.
And instead of holding the same idea, there are other people with dozens of servants, especially the guy with a low official position. Although his official position is not high, he brought a lot of people today. There are a total of 40 people, and each of these people has a lottery. At the very least, it is not a problem to draw him a few or a dozen balls, and this has even exceeded his expectations.
At the beginning, his expectation was five jars of wine, but now it seems that there are definitely more than five jars of wine, which made him excited all of a sudden.
At this time, the only ones who were more disappointed were the lonely housekeepers, especially those who brought only one or two people, their faces were very ugly.
Especially the person in second place, he is the steward of the current Ministry of Rites Shangshu, and this position is mixed among the six Shangshu.
Already an indomitable figure.
But what he didn't expect was that he only brought one servant here today.
Originally, he thought that with his own status, these people would naturally have to give him face, and he wanted to buy a few jars of wine, which was absolutely no problem.
But he never expected that such a thing would happen now, which made him a little embarrassed for a while, because there were only two people on his side.
And the chances of drawing lots are uncertain. At the very least, the two of them are much worse than others, who are usually dozens of people, and it is very likely that I can't buy a pot.
The best result is that everyone can get a stall, which means that the two of them can buy two jugs of wine.
This is very different from my previous expectations. When I came here, I had already promised my grandfather that I would take back at least 20 jugs of wine.
Now she even frowned secretly, thinking about how she would be able to deal with grandpa after she went back.
However, in such an atmosphere, the lottery began soon, and the person who ranked first stepped forward, looked directly at the shopkeeper with a smile and said:
"Hehe, shopkeeper, I'm about to start now.
Let me talk about my ugly words first. If we, number 50, get a jar of wine, then it means that we have to take away 50 jars of wine. There is no problem with this, right? "
After the shopkeeper heard this, he stroked his beard and smiled ~www.mtlnovel.com~ and said:
"Of course there is no problem with this. If you are lucky, even if you take away all the 200 jars of wine, it can only be due to your luck."
Hearing this, the guy nodded in satisfaction, and then walked directly towards the wooden box, while looking at the small round hole.
Without even thinking about it, I reached out and went deep inside.
And I have to say that the size of the hole is so ingeniously designed that the naked eye can't see everything inside.
When the hand reached in, it was found that it was not blocked by anything.
This design is really ingenious enough.
However, the moment he stretched his hand in, his expression changed immediately.
