Chapter 75: The Upgraded Version of “Spent a Lot of Money to Find a Child”, Let’s Find Out More
This seemingly aloof and noble young master is naturally Wang Shouzhe's future brother-in-law Chen Fangjie. The 'inconspicuous' general standing behind him was played by Wang Shouzhe himself.
Of course, both of them had already put on makeup, and Wang Mei did it herself. Not to mention that it has changed its appearance, but if you are not very familiar with it, you will definitely not recognize it.
When Chen Fangjie heard about this plan, he found it quite interesting.
It's not often that you can please your future wife's relatives and be so interesting. What's more, Wang Shouzhe entrusted the Chen family to participate in the plan, and it was impossible for their efforts to go in vain.
Therefore, in order to play the role of a high-minded and superior second-generation ancestor, he even took out the robes that were tailor-made for him by his family to support the occasion before and after marriage.
Wang Shouzhe, who played the role of the general, was also quite speechless about this. On the surface, this future brother-in-law looks very serious and has the demeanor of a young patriarch of an aristocratic family, but deep down he is still a bit - sultry.
This lazy half-lying posture, half-closed and half-opened eyes, and a disdainful and contemptuous expression are really quite impressive.
The faces of Liu's group turned pale.
Liu Yongzhou, a young talent of the Liu family, blushed even more, looking like he was ready to explode.
"Ahem." The head of the Liu family, Liu Shengye, was a calm old fox after all. He handed over his hands with a smile on his face, "This young master must be the young master of the famous Tantai family of King Donghai, right? He is indeed the young master of Tantai. It’s true that he is so majestic and magnificent, and he is like a dragon or a phoenix among people.”
While speaking, he also winked at Liu Yongzhou, a small impatience would ruin the big plan.
"Tantai Heyu, I wasn't looking for you in this transaction, you were the one who forced it together." Zhong Luoxian's tone was cold and slightly dissatisfied, "Ms. Liu and I have a life-saving grace. Please be more respectful."
"Yes, since you are Luo Xian's benefactor, I can only be polite." Chen Fangjie straightened his body slightly and squinted, "Tell me, how much food do you want to borrow?"
Liu Shengye was overjoyed, and immediately handed over his hand and said: "We, the Liu family, need to borrow 10,000 dans of grain to quell the disaster in the area under our jurisdiction. We are willing to return 20,000 dans of grain to your family after the next season's harvest."
"Ten thousand pounds?" Chen Fangjie's lips curled up with an expression that was half a smile, and he ignored Liu Shengye, looked at Zhong Luoxian and said, "Luoxian, this is not Tantai and Yu looking down on people. It's such a trivial matter. , you are actually willing to use the favor of our Tantai family?"
"Zhong Luoxian" seemed to have some opinions on Tantai Heyu, but said in a cold voice: "This transaction is indeed a small amount for you. However, it is used by the Liu family to relieve the victims. I hope Heyu can make it happen." .”
Liu Yongzhou's heart skipped a beat, Luoxian actually begged that abominable Tantai Heyu for him. He felt humiliated and angry. Didn't that kid think the business was too small? He immediately said: "Twenty thousand dan, our Liu family wants 20,000 dan."
As soon as these words came out, Liu Shengye couldn't stand firm and fell down. This time, it stands to reason that the Liu family has about 15,000 dan vacancies. But if you are careful and mix some sand into the rice, you can handle the situation with more than 10,000 dan.
Unexpectedly, Liu Yongzhou asked for 20,000 Dan just to save face.
"It's really boring." Chen Fangjie didn't even move his eyelids, as if he was reluctant, "But for the sake of Luoxian's face, let's do this small business of only 20,000 tons of grain."
"You are truly worthy of being called the Tantai family of the King of the East China Sea. They are truly extraordinary. Then I will lend you twenty thousand dan." At this moment, Liu Shengye could only acquiesce to this figure. Otherwise, he was really afraid that this young master Tantai, who had a bad temper, would walk away in anger.
"Twenty thousand dans of old grain, according to 5 large coppers per dan, is worth 1,000 dry gold." Chen Fangjie said indifferently, "Our Tantai family is a family that firmly supports the laws of Daqian and will never speculate on grain prices. Therefore, the contract between the two parties is Please note that this transaction is a dry gold loan transaction. We will lend you 2,000 dry gold and return it within five months. You only need to pay an additional 1,000 dry gold interest. In addition, when borrowing, your family must be able to exceed The property worth 3,000 dry gold is used as collateral. Once the loan cannot be repaid beyond the time limit, the collateral will belong to us."
What?
The expressions of the Liu family all changed greatly, this condition is quite dark! Even though the conditions are slightly better than Sun's Black, the benefits are still limited after all.
Moreover, the property needs to be used as collateral, which makes everyone very worried. Everyone's eyes were on Liu Shengye.
Liu Shengye's face was also quite solemn and solemn. After careful consideration in his mind, he raised his hands and said, "Master Tantai, can the mortgage of the family property be exempted? I, the Ping An Liu family, are willing to use my reputation as a mortgage."
"Reputation?" Chen Fangjie said with a sneer, "In the eyes of this young master, the reputation of you low-class families is worthless. Could it be that you are planning to default on your debt, so you are unwilling to use the family property as a mortgage? Huh, I don't have time to play with you. Boring game."
Seeing that the Liu family seemed to be in a dilemma, Zhong Luoxian glanced at Liu Yongzhou, bit his teeth, and said with a hint of pleading in his voice: "Tantai Heyu, I also know that it is hard to find food now. But For the sake of helping the victims of the disaster, can you please give me some more discounts?"
Suddenly, Liu Yongzhou's heart trembled.
Luoxian, Luoxian actually went to seek Tantai Heyu who had eyes higher than his head for him.
Chen Fangjie smiled boldly: "Even if Luo Xian says so, I will waive the interest on 500 dry gold. However, the mortgage of Liu's property must be transferred. After the loan is repaid with interest, Return it again.”
The reduction of 500 dry gold immediately made everyone in the Liu family look happy. This was really a huge discount. But hearing that the property had to be transferred... everyone's hearts were still a little pounding.
"The property you want to transfer is preferably of the manor type." Chen Fangjie squinted his eyes and focused on Zhong Luoxian, "Luoxian has been in a bad mood recently. Since he wants to relax outside, he must have a place to stay. For now, let's start with Let’s put it under the name of Luo Xian.”
"Master Tantai is so cheerful, so Liu Shengye is no longer pretentious." Liu Shengye's eyes lit up, he smiled and said, "Since everyone is doing business, we will collect the grain with one hand and present the manor transfer documents with the other. Before that, Miss Luoxian can move and stay first."
Under Liu's name, there is a manor with pleasant scenery that has been invested and developed for more than ten years. Among them are comfortable courtyard buildings, 800 acres of fertile farmland, and a 200-acre lotus pond, and there is still room for development around it.
The total value of this manor, even if it is less than three thousand gold, is not far off.
Liu Shengye's only worry was that after the transfer of the manor, he would not be able to get food. And he didn't have the strength to seek trouble from the King of East China Sea.
"It's the right thing to do if the money and goods are cleared." After Chen Fangjie agreed, he waved his hands impatiently and said, "Okay, you all can step aside. This transaction will be fully handled by Luoxian. alright."
His attitude was so casual, as if this transaction involving two to three thousand gold was a trivial matter.
Retreat?
This was the first time for the Liu family to feel such a contemptuous attitude. However, people who are arrogant naturally have the capital to be arrogant. How could these people be friends without Miss Zhong's mediation?
The rest of the older Liu clan members didn't care. Only Liu Yongzhou's face turned red, as if he was holding a fire in his heart.
Just as Liu Shengye led his clan members out of the attic, the joking laughter of "Tantai Heyu" came from inside: "Luoxian, I know you don't like me, so I ran away from home in protest. It's a pity, it's a pity, this time When I get back, I will ask my ancestors to propose marriage, who can refuse?"
"You!" Zhong Luoxian's voice was suppressed and angry, "Luoxian is no more beautiful than a willow tree, why are you so entangled?"
"My master's temper is that the more I can't get something, the more I want to get it. Zhong Luoxian, you can't escape my grasp after all." The voice became more and more arrogant, "But it's because I love you. Let you enjoy your last free time."
The Liu family did not have much reaction to those words. What does it have to do with the children of the high-ranking heavenly family talking about love, grievances and grudges?
However, no one noticed that Liu Yongzhou's eyes began to turn red and his whole body was trembling. He had never felt such shame and heartache in his life.
He understood, and finally understood that Luo Xian wanted to get close to him, but seemed to have huge scruples. I originally thought it was just the level gap between the aristocratic families, but I didn't expect there were such obstacles.
But after all, he is just a direct descendant of a ninth-grade family, so what power can he have to change all this?
No matter how angry you are, in the eyes of that superior young man, it is just a joke.
Liu's ship was getting farther and farther away, and Liu Yongzhou's heart seemed to sink. In front of him, Luo Xian's eyes showed pain inadvertently, and he could not wipe them away.
…
Meanwhile, in the loft on the ship.
Chen Fangjie was in a good mood, drinking tea with a slightly excited face: "Shou Zhe, how did Brother Yu behave just now? Does he look like the second generation ancestor of the Tianren family?"
Wang Shouzhe looked him up and down: "Is this your nature? As the patriarch, I am qualified to regret the marriage for my sister."
"Pfft!" Chen Fangjie spit out a sip of tea and said hurriedly, "It's an injustice. It's a huge injustice. I acted according to your instructions. Don't misunderstand me. I, Chen Fangjie, am a talented person but an unexperienced person. Carved rough jade has a pure texture.”
"Okay, Brother Chen, let my sister slowly train this piece of rough jade." Wang Shouzhe said, "Quickly calm down, we have to pick up a wave of customers in the afternoon."
Picking up guests?
Chen Fangjie's cheeks twitched slightly, and the use of this word made him grit his teeth.
However, this future brother-in-law is really not a simple person. The more we get along with him, the more mysterious he becomes.
Similarly, Wang Mei became more and more satisfied with the head of the family.
Her ancestors and grandchildren had been generals of the Wang family for several generations before, so they were naturally loyal to the family. But this kind of loyalty is only loyalty to the family. No matter who is the head of the family, she will do things with care.
But the head of the Shouzhe family is different. He has a calm demeanor, full of wisdom, insight into human nature, considerate, and most importantly, he is so handsome and handsome.
I, Wang Mei, am so lucky to have met such a perfect head of the family.
If the head of the family asks to sleep with him or something... what should we do?
What role should Meimei play? Hehehe~~ The more she thought about it, the happier she became.
