In Europe at this time, the preciousness of ginseng simply cannot be described in words. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
In order to prolong their lives, kings of various countries spared no expense to collect this treasure from the East, and sometimes offered a thousand-year-old ginseng tree of excellent color, which could receive a bounty of 10,000 gold coins, and even ordinary ginseng could also get a valuable reward.
This time in the Americas, Zheng Fei found two boxes of wild American ginseng, and the general age of the color is not long ago, but as long as the market is well controlled, it will not be a problem to sell millions of silver coins.
Hearing the ginseng, the duke's eyes suddenly lit up, and his limbs were slightly stiff and he sat on the sofa, his expression seemed to be a little dull, but he had actually begun to ponder.
Turning his estate into an exchange, he was extremely disgusted with the act, but ...... That batch of goods is all luxury, and there are fifty percent of the advantages! Weighing the pros and cons, in addition to the loss of his reputation, he is simply going to make a windfall!
After a brief moment of silence, he moved his lips, opened a thin slit, and took an imperceptible deep breath to calm his agitation and try to remain calm.
He picked up his goblet, took a sip of the powerful Italian wine, glanced out the window, and said, "But why do you want to give me fifty percent of the profit?"
"Because you are Duke of Abraham, I want to be friends with you. Zheng Fei said without any delay.
The duke naturally believed this, after all, there were too many people who wanted to use money to make friends with him.
The duke raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Let's talk?"
At this time, Zheng Fei had a happy intention in his heart, but he would never write it on his face, but just said lightly: "Then, let's talk." ”
"Change to a quiet place, follow me!"
With that, the Duke stood up and went upstairs.
Even at home, when discussing important matters, he is used to avoiding people's eyes, because he knows that his group of sons have their own evil intentions.
He thought more than once.
There are dozens of rooms on each floor, but the Abrahamic family lives in Rome all the year round, and the servants, housekeepers, etc. are all left in the Roman manor, so the castle in the hometown seems empty.
And this just makes it convenient for Zheng Fei to do things.
Half an hour later.
After explaining the details to the duke, Zheng Fei beckoned the sailors to leave the manor, and before leaving, the duke also gave two bottles of Italian wine that had been treasured for many years, which was his lifeblood in the past.
But now, he can buy a lot of life with that fifty percent of the profits.
Standing at the gate to see them off was his daughters, in addition to the duke.
The group of girls, a blush on their faces had not yet faded, the top button of the cotton coat was open, and they looked very hot, and between their eyebrows, there was a smile that was both satisfied and unsatisfied.
Seeing the waves of his daughters, the duke blushed, but didn't ask them what they had just done, because this was not the first time this kind of thing had happened, and it was good to turn a blind eye.
After all, in medieval Europe, the life of the aristocracy was extremely promiscuous, and it was really very rare that they could clean themselves.
Well, the Duke himself was similar when he was young, otherwise where did such a large group of children come from?
......
Out of the manor, walking on the quiet country road, Zheng Fei couldn't help but show a wicked smile.
Beside him, Santiago looked back at the gate of the manor, those high-end no-fee prostitutes with a beprising body and full of charm, reluctant to give up.
When the girls were inside, he smacked his lips and looked back to the front, almost hitting a tree.
Before the sailors were ready to report on the results of the reconnaissance, Santiago asked a question.
"You're really going to give that old fellow fifty percent of the profits, isn't it?" he wondered.
"Do I look so stupid?" Zheng Fei still had a wicked smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Then you just ......"
"It's just a lie, and after selling the goods and getting the token in the prince's hands, we will leave Venice at once. ”
After a pause, Zheng Fei raised his eyes and looked at the dead leaves in front of him, fluttering in the wind.
He continued: "Don't look at the old fellow's appearance so friendly, in fact, this friendliness is only based on profit, whether it is his demeanor or eyes, I can conclude that he has hurt many people. So, I don't need to talk to him about integrity. ”
The faces of the sailors were always happy, firstly, they were still reminiscing about the fierce battle with the noble lady not long ago, and secondly, they were born in poverty, and they were keen to pit the nobles and the rich.
At the beginning, I was not less angry with these people.
After a few moments of silence, Santiago laughed at the same time, but he exhaled worriedly, and asked, "But in this way, he will have enmity with many people, right?"
"No, it's just a feud with the duke and the prince, and the others have to thank me, the prince has no token to rule the descendants of Sparta, and he has less bargaining chips to win the war, so he will look for other foreign aid to supplement, as long as there is money, there is no foreign aid that cannot be found, and the last thing that the group of merchants who want to tie up with him is money! ”
Hearing this, Santiago scratched the back of his head, his expression dazed, and it seemed that he was stunned.
"I don't understand ......"
"Haha, then don't understand, go to the city for a big meal and a big drink!"
These words immediately aroused the indulgent cheers of the sailors.
After "sleeping" a satisfying night's sleep, eat a hearty meal to make up for it, which is very good and very life-like.
And Zheng Fei, after laughing, silently lowered his eyebrows and sighed lightly.
A tenacious dead leaf, finally unable to resist the tearing of the cold wind, broke down from the high treetops, fell silently, and was caught by his hand.
In fact, sometimes, what is the difference between him and this leaf? Being in a familiar and unfamiliar world, with obsessions and dreams in his heart, he has to face fierce pressure from the outside world from time to time.
But he never gives up!
In front of him and in the future, there are too many unknowns waiting for him, this unknown may be happy or thrilling, but no matter what it is, it is what he wants.
He, Zheng Fei, was born for adventure!
Oh, what about enmity, how can it be done without enmity?
History is written by the victors! When you are successful and famous, you can talk about your past experiences, no matter what you say, it is right.
After pondering, holding the fallen leaf, he smiled, and his heart was full of blood!
At this moment, suddenly a dozen short figures rushed out of the woods, agile as rabbits, blocking in front of them.
When I looked closely, it was a group of children lying outside the fence of the manor smelling the fragrance.
The children stood on the road, each with a bag of candy in their hands, and looked at Santiago with a grin.
The child king stepped forward, stared at Santiago's eyes gratefully and stubbornly, and said, "I will definitely pay you back the money!"
As soon as he opened his mouth, his mouth was full of roast goose flavor, and he burped as he spoke.
Santiago fanned his hand in front of his nose and pouted, "No." ”
"No, we're going to pay it back!" the child king was very tough, pointing to the small cabin standing in the field in the distance, and said, "That's my home, if you have something, go find me!" )
