At this time, ten servants carried out five boxes from the inner room, and with a wave of the old man's sleeves, the servants opened the lid neatly.

Gold, it's gold.

Golden and shiny.

Sturdy five large crates of gold.

Pang Ji couldn't help but look at the old man and looked at it seriously.

He was not tall, with a thin build, hunched back.

The old face is sallow as dirt, and his face is full of wrinkles on his neck.

Covered in silk and satin, the wrench on his hand is inlaid with a sapphire the size of a copper coin's eye, which is especially eye-catching.

If he usually met this old man, Pang Ji probably felt that this was just an old man from a rich and noble family.

But at this moment, against the backdrop of these five boxes of gold, he felt that this old man who was old and dying was like a dead tree in spring, and suddenly became alive.

He even felt that the old man's half-squinted and half-dreaming old eyes seemed to have a cold light flashing, and his sallow face was dyed with a golden luster, like a withered flower outside the post station, which was urged by some kind of spell to reproduce the brilliance of its bloom.

Pang Ji noticed his thoughts, and he also felt funny in his heart.

Money can't buy youth, but if you have five big boxes of gold, you can buy others to think you're young.

Lexin arched his hand and said loudly: "Shopkeeper Jing understands righteousness!"

"The prince laughed,"

The old man surnamed Jing pursed his lips, snorted coldly, and said, "Old man Jing is unrighteous and wealthy, and everyone knows it. ”

Lexin but laughed silently.

Old man Jing said again: "It's just that my friendship with the Hou Ye is more precious than wealth." ”

Behind him, another white and fat, pot-bellied old man also stood up, walked to Old Man Jing's side, and said: "Old Jing is right, since this is the mouth of the Hou Ye, we must have no excuse." “

The fat old man and the old man Jing stood together, one fat and one thin, one with crane hair and a childish face, and the other with a pale yellow and withered face, with sharp contrast and full of joy.

Lexin Waner said with a smile: "Thanks to the care of the four shopkeepers, the juniors thanked them first." ”

With that, he snapped his fingers, and two guards in dark clothes brought in a bookcase with a large sheepskin map on it.

Pang Ji stepped forward curiously to take a closer look, and it turned out that the diagram of the fifty-three towns in the seventeen counties of Hexi Road.

Lexin motioned for everyone to come forward, pointed to the location marked red on the map, and said, "These twenty-eight pieces of land along the river, the younger generation has all entered it. ”

The river was flooded, and the land along the river was much cheaper than before the flood receded.

But the total of these 28 pieces of land occupies half of the east and west roads of the river. The Marquis of Anguo's mansion is rich in Bianjing, which is not a false name of Lang.

Lexin said: "The four shopkeepers are affectionate and righteous, and the younger generations will definitely not let you suffer." ”

He motioned to one of the guards, who took a seven-inch long brocade box from the inner chamber and opened it to reveal a stack of deed papers.

"The wages for the repair and reconstruction of the embankments along the river are all paid by the juniors, and the treasurers only need to pay for the repair of the bridges and roads, and the juniors of the title deeds will not increase a penny, and the original price will be sold to you. ”

The fat old man pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "Now is the year of famine, and the wage is the cheapest, and it is just the time to build a large number of buildings. When the embankments, bridges and roads are repaired, the land on the banks of the river extends in all directions, and the country becomes fertile land. ”

He said to Old Man Jing again: "Old Jing, this deal is not a loss. ”

Old man Jing also raised his white eyebrows lightly and said, "It's naturally good to be able to help Master Hou and make money." ”

Another black and strong old man beside them also smiled: "The best thing is to be able to help the victims, do good deeds and accumulate virtues, and be unwilling to be the queen." ”

Lexin brought pens, ink, paper and inkstones from the guards, and smiled at the four of them: "Since the four shopkeepers have no objections, then let's sign the contract." ”

After that, Lexin was about to start writing, but the old man who had not said a word in the four shopkeepers said: "Slow!"

When Pang Ji heard this, he looked at him, and saw that the old man had a deep outline, a high nose, and seemed to have foreign blood.

The old man said, "The four of us make deals with the Hou Ye and never sign the deed. ”

Lexin was also stunned.

Old man Jing said: "Exactly, when doing business with old friends, I only speak the word 'letter'. ”

The fat old man also said: "These five boxes of gold, but with the cost of the world, two months later, we will bring the balance to get the land deed." ”

Lexin smiled and arched his hand: "Thank you for your kindness." ”

……

"Five hundred and ninety-eight. ”

"Five hundred and ninety-nine. ”

"Six hundred. ”

The crowd dispersed, and Lexin and Pang Ji counted the gold in the inner room of the private inn.

That's a total of 600 gold bars.

Thick and long gold bars.

600, a full 1.2 million.

Pang is staggered.

Money.

One billion and twenty million dollars.

"Who are those four?"

Pang asked tremblingly.

"You don't know you either. ”

Lexin sat down and took a sip of tea, and said expressionlessly.

Pang Ji sighed, shook his head and said, "I didn't expect this disaster relief matter, but it was negotiated in the afternoon." ”

He sees the gap between himself and the person in front of him more clearly.

Suddenly, he remembered Lexin's words before the private post.

- "Maybe by the time you return to Beijing, I'll be gone." ”

He asked curiously, "Why do you say that you may not be there when I return to Beijing?"

Lexin didn't answer him.

Pang Ji waited quietly.

Waited for a quarter of an hour.

Two quarters of an hour.

It's like a cup of tea.

Or the time of two rounds of wine.

Le Xincai said: "They're going to do it." ”
