The cold wind in the afternoon is a little colder than in the daytime.

Zhan Xiaoyi didn't feel cold, and even felt slightly hot.

It's caused by anger.

Fifty percent?

Fifty percent!

Give fifty percent to the government in vain, where is there any profit at all?

It's too much of a deception!

Although I regret it, I have to give up.

After making up his mind, Zhan Xiaoyi calmed down instead.

"Your Royal Highness Princess," he got up from his seat and arched his hand, "Xiaoyi Commercial Bank operates on a small scale, and it has always been stable first. If the rich and expensive business can't be done, I don't complain about it, but the business at a loss has never been able to do it. ”

Ye Luchi's face suddenly turned blue, and he took a step forward, just about to reprimand Zhan Xiaoyi for his ignorance.

But Jeluli stretched out his hand to block it and stopped.

She didn't show a look on her face, and said seriously: "If Uncle Tie Chira thinks that fifty percent is too much, there is another way in this hall." ”

"I want to hear about it. ”

Zhan Xiaoyi didn't seem to be playing tricks on her, let alone talking, even if he was skeptical, he had to listen patiently.

"If all the transactions in the contract were traded in my Da Liao's money,"

Yeluli smiled and said confidently: "This hall is sure that it can convince a group of courtiers. ”

When Zhan Xiaoyi heard this, his heart sank.

……

- "Profit is secondary, but the younger brother is worried that they will take the opportunity to put forward another condition. ”

At that time, Zhan Xiaoyi was unimpressed: "What conditions can be more terrible than cutting our profits?"

"If they want to settle the settlement with the money and silver of the Liao Kingdom, then we will lose a lot. ”

"Le Lang" replied half jokingly, half seriously.

"Settlement?"

Zhan Xiaoyi only cared about this unheard of thing: "What is 'settlement'?"

"It's the accounting is settled, and the money and goods are cleared. ”

"It's unfounded!"

Zhan Xiaoyi laughed, couldn't help but shake his head, and explained: "The situation in Da Liao ...... Brother Le, you don't know - even if it is our Majesty, the Queen Mother, and the civil and military forces in the Chengtian Palace, when discussing political affairs, when talking about money and silver, they are talking about the money and silver of the Song Kingdom, not to mention business transactions?

"Ah, it's ......" "Le Lang" breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's the little brother who is too worried." ”

Zhan Xiaoyi drank a lot of wine and said with a smile: "Take a step back, if they really don't have a clear mind, it's okay to make such a request." ”

"Oh?"

"If you have to use the money and silver of the Liao State to 'settle', you can refer to the exchange of silver and money between the two countries, and the price can be several times more expensive...... As usual, the Song copper coin has always been about three Liao copper coins, then, the small pot of five taels of wine, we will sell for 240 Wen Liao money, a catty of eight taels of Xiaocheng sells for 900 Wen Liao money, and three catties of Dacheng always sells for 500 Wen Liao money. ……”

Zhan Xiaoyi quickly converted without the slightest worry.

"What if," "Lelang" interrupted him, "what if they insist on specifying a fixed exchange rate?"

"Exchange rate?"

"For example, they specify that the consistent Song money can only be exchanged for two Liao money, and even, the consistent Song money can only be exchanged for the consistent Liao money......"

"Impossible!"

Zhan Xiaoyi exclaimed, paused, and he persuaded solemnly: "Brother Le, don't listen to those ignorant women and children say that the Liao people are warlike, and think that the Liao capital is all reckless people......"

"Little brother doesn't mean that......"

"Brother, let me tell you from the bottom of my heart, our Queen Mother and Your Majesty are first-class smart people! And yo, among the hundred officials who have entered the Chengtian Palace, which one is not like a human spirit? No matter how much Li Ling Zhi is dizzy, he will not mention such unreasonable conditions!"

"Le Lang" knew for a while, and he couldn't explain the principle clearly, sighed softly, and said: "In case, just in case, if they really make such a request, it is not completely impossible to ......."

……

"Uncle Tiechira?"

Yeluli saw that Zhan Xiaoyi was stunned and noncommittal about his proposal, so he called him: "What do you think?"

Zhan Xiaoyi suddenly came back to his senses, took a deep breath, barely smiled, and said, "It's not a big problem to trade with Liao money." ”

"Consistent Song money, for consistent Liao money. ”

Yeluli added.

As soon as these words came out, Yelucong and Yeluchi looked at each other.

Most of the border fields are always Song money for three Liao money. When you are in a hurry to find a change, it is not a strange thing to change four or five times consistently.

Consistent for consistent?

It's a grab!

Zhan Xiaoyi's face was even more stiff.

It's broken, it's broken!

He said in his heart.

I knew that I should have carefully asked Brother Le for advice and asked what was going on.

For a while, I couldn't help but feel resentful about the few people in front of me.

- Hmph, in vain, I am still in front of Brother Le, praising you for being a first-class smart person, and papping my heart to promise that you will not do anything to make you dizzy!

Regretful, annoyed, and ashamed, Zhan Xiaoyi clenched his fists and said loudly: "This matter, I can't do it in the future, and wait for me to repair a book and discuss it with An Guohou Haosheng, it will take a month or two." ”

After that, he gestured in the direction of the door, "Everyone, I hope you will forgive me for the inconsiderate greeting." ”

It's clear that it's going to be a send-off.

Yelu Cong saw that things were going to be yellow, and hurriedly said, "Uncle, you ......"

"It's okay,"

Yeluli interrupted him, his smile did not change, and said, "Then, I have to wait until Uncle Tiechira has an idea and then come to visit." ”

He said goodbye, lifted up his robe, turned and strode away.

……

Outside the door of the filial piety firm.

Cold sleet.

Due to the Chinese New Year, only a few shops are open.

Yeluchi took the fox fur handed by the servant and draped it neatly on his body, making it much warmer.

He opened his mouth, but hesitated.

"What does the second emperor brother want to ask?"

Jereli saw his thoughts at once.

"Buying and selling the money and silver of Da Liao is already harsh...... Consistently, you are clearly making trouble!"

Jerericho accused.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind—

Consistent for consistent, is this ......

The idea was as ethereal as a breeze and snow, and if you couldn't grasp it all at once, you couldn't figure it out anymore.

- "What the hell are you thinking?"

He couldn't help but blurt out.

Yeluli didn't hear it, and walked to the nearest shop.

She pulled a silver ingot out of her sleeve.

Silver ingots of the Song Kingdom.

"Shopkeeper," she handed the silver ingot to the shopkeeper, and instructed, "find me the treasure ingot of Da Liao." ”

The shopkeeper lazily took it, turned to the bottom and took a closer look, and found that it was actually the "Chongning Treasure Ingot" of the neighboring country, and his eyes lit up in an instant, lest the "little boy" in front of him regret it, so he hurriedly took out a "Jingfu Treasure Ingot" from the cash cabinet and hurriedly handed it over to Yeluli.

Jingfu is the current era name of the Liao State.

The one in exchange for it, although it was not pure silver, was much larger than the original.

She handed over the "Jingfu Treasure Ingot" to Yeluchi.

Ye Luchi's eyes darkened, put it in his hand and looked at it for a moment, sighed long, and said: "If it is a pure silver ingot, it is not wronged to change such a big one......

He was indignant in his heart, but he was more helpless: "Obviously, it is also a corner of the east and a corner of the west, why is the 'Chongning Treasure Ingot' more valuable than the 'Jingfu Treasure Ingot'?"

"Like a boat?"

Yeluli didn't answer, but asked rhetorically.

"Boat?"

Jererich's pinching of the ingot and looking—the two horns were cocked and the middle was down, shaped like a small boat.

He didn't know what it meant, so he replied, "It's quite similar." ”

"What I need is an anchor. ”

"Anchor?"

"Well, the anchor of the 'Gyeongbok Treasure Ingot'. ”
