Chapter 22
Jiang Yongjiu looked at the little girl in front of him who had no stage fright in the face of the intruder, and only then did he believe the later description of the Ding Sanhuai brothers and sisters, this little girl is really an unusual person, she will not be confused by appearances, and she will not be led by her nose. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info so that he was able to completely reverse the situation and grasp the initiative when he was originally used as a pawn.
However, he only curled the corners of his mouth slightly, which was regarded as an acquiescence, and did not comment on Yuan Xiyue's words just now. He was originally going to fulfill the promise made by Ding Sanhuai three days ago today, and he wanted to officially hand over the additional thirty percent of the benefits to Yuan Xiyue, and there was no need to quarrel with a little girl.
At this time, Yun Xiang had already closed the courtyard door with a very good eye, and the eldest lady went out early this morning, she had just taken care of the things in the house and was about to go to the yard to see the flowers and plants, but suddenly saw a young man sitting on the stone bench in the courtyard who looked like a painting came out, and there was a girl who was not a few years older than her standing next to her.
Yun Xiang remembered that the eldest lady said that someone should come to her door today, and it is estimated that she will not go through the main gate, but let her pay attention to it, notify the eldest lady in time, and not alarm other people in the house.
Fortunately, she reacted quickly, and suppressed the urge to shout before Ding Sanxiu came over to cover her mouth, but she didn't dare to get too close to these two people, so she had to wait at the door for the eldest lady to come back.
"Since we have an appointment with Miss Yuan in advance, we should come to the door to fulfill our promise." Jiang Yongjiu said sincerely.
"But I didn't expect Jiang Gongzi to come in person, so I don't worry about your seal." Although she had reached an agreement with Jiang Yongjiu's side before, and she could be regarded as getting back the benefits she deserved, Yuan Xiyue still didn't have a good impression of the person who scared her with poisonous snakes and poisonous spiders, so she was not very polite between her words.
"The last time it was really a matter of urgency, so I had to use extraordinary means, and I wanted to come to the door to thank and apologize to the girl in person." After speaking, Jiang Yongjiu shook his hand, his attitude was humble, and he could see that this person had excellent cultivation, but even if he apologized, Yuan Xiyue could see that there was a sense of majesty that could not be looked at directly.
Yuan Xiyue only then thought that he would be poisoned by a strange poison when he came casually, and he could take out ten thousand taels of silver tickets casually, and he made such a big battle to detoxify, it seems that the force behind him is not something that he can think of casually in his current identity. However, Yuan Xiyue thought, even if he is a prince or noble, it doesn't matter, anyway, when this matter is over, there will be no need to deal with him in the future.
Seeing that his attitude was sincere, Yuan Xiyue's resentment in his heart was also eliminated a lot, so he said to him: "Jiang Gongzi doesn't have to be polite, in fact, in the final analysis, our two sides are also exchanging interests, since Jiang Gongzi came with sincerity, then let's get down to business as soon as possible, you might as well sit down and say." ”
Jiang Yongjiu thought that this time it was really not in vain, he has always liked to deal with smart and straightforward people, the main reason is to cooperate with them, it will be very efficient to do things, obviously, this little girl is a person worth dealing with.
He saw that Yunxiang and Sanxiu had retreated with interest, so he said to Yuan Xiyue: "Miss Yuan, do you know how much benefit you will get this time?" ”
Yuan Xiyue thought to herself, you are quite funny, but you asked me in turn. However, on the surface, he just smiled and shook his head, showing well the posture that a life-saving benefactor should have, but in his heart he was still looking forward to it, thinking that his sister should be developed this time.
Jiang Yongjiu looked at Yuan Xiyue and said in an extremely solemn tone: "You are an authentic Linzhou person, you should know that Linzhou is a north-south waterway transportation fortress, and the taxes handed over to the imperial court every year, including Caoyun, are actually quite considerable, but I believe that with your wisdom, you should be able to understand, in addition to the visible benefits, ......."
Jiang Yongjiu breathed heavily, his eyes narrowed slightly, and finally spoke again: "This invisible benefit is also considerable. ”
Yuan Xiyue instantly understood what he meant, this time Jiang Yongjiu's trading point with his father's side turned out to be the current interests of Linzhou and the surrounding boundary waterways.
But in an instant, a thought flashed through her mind, and she blurted out a question: "I wonder how long the deadline you agreed with my father this time?" ”
Jiang Yongjiu smiled and immediately replied: "Miss Yuan really asked the point, this time Jiang was in a deep predicament, fortunately the Yuan prefect extended a hand, so the remuneration agreed by Jiang and them is the underground interests of this Linzhou boundary waterway for ten years, in addition to the profit of nearly 100,000 taels per year, there are also underground forces that can be mobilized at any time in ten years for their use." ”
Rao was prepared in advance, and Yuan Xiyue couldn't help but show surprise. Not to mention the considerable monetary profits, those underground forces that can be mobilized are shockingly valuable resources, which means that black and white are both black and white.
To put it bluntly, Jiang Yongjiu's life is indeed too valuable, so the forces behind his father must be not small. Yuan Xiyue felt that his rebellion seemed to be extremely fruitful, but he was unconsciously involved in some complex and whirlpools, and it seemed that he might have to face a more complex environment in the future.
Jiang Yongjiu looked at the expression on Yuan Xiyue's face, and didn't debunk it for the time being, just clapped his hands lightly, and Ding Sanxiu immediately took a stack of silver tickets and walked over, which looked like the silver tickets that Ding Sanhuai gave her that day, and all major ticket numbers in the country could be used.
"According to the conversion of 30% of the profit, converted into cash, I should pay the girl more than 90,000 taels of silver, in order to avoid trouble, here are 100,000 taels of silver tickets, and please smile at the girl."
Saying that, Ding Sanxiu put the silver ticket in front of Yuan Xiyue without changing color, obviously used to seeing this kind of scene. Yuan Xiyue felt strange for a while, why did I think she was used to seeing her? Are you used to seeing their sons give money to women? Ahh
Of course, the two people on the other side didn't know what Yuan Xiyue was thinking at this time, they only saw that the expression on the face of this girl who liked to fight for her own interests was quite calm at this time, which was rare for her age and life experience.
Just when they felt that Yuan Xiyue looked a little dumbfounded, Yuan Xiyue suddenly raised his head and said, "I don't know what to say about this mobilization of underground forces?" ”
Oh, it really understands.
"I want to take a look at my jade seal first."
It turned out that he was not worried about this, Yuan Xiyue immediately called Yun Xiang to bring Jiang Yongjiu's jade seal, and when it was handed to him, Jiang Yongjiu opened the box, picked up the jade seal and rubbed it on his hand, and then said: "To mobilize these forces, just need the girl to show this jade seal." As he spoke, he put the jade seal away and solemnly handed it to Yuan Xiyue.
Yuan Xiyue thought to herself: "You just said no, and you still took it around, it's really a big deal." ”
