Chapter 102: I'm here to help you
"It turns out that Chen'er is so thoughtful." Zhou Tianque suddenly realized, and immediately believed Chen Chen's words.
It seems that his vision is really good, and he can find a good son-in-law who is so dedicated and caring to his daughter to take care of his daughter's future.
Zhou Tianque sighed again.
"Hey."
"Chen'er, in fact, you don't have to think about it like this, as long as you are sincere to my daughter, it is enough, and it doesn't matter if it's a dowry or something."
He is the richest man, and what he lacks is never money, but just someone who can take care of his daughter.
"No, Zhou Yuanwai." Chen Chen's face was very stern.
"Outside of Zhou Yuan, I am a dignified seven-foot man, how can I be so wronged by Qin'er, if I can't even achieve this, then it is better not to marry." As he spoke, Chen Chen shook his hand and stood with his back to Zhou Tianque, his eyes far away on the lotus flower in the lotus pond not far away.
"You should be an eight-foot man." After listening to Chen Chen's words, Zhou Tianque looked Chen Chen up and down, and said negatively.
Chen Chen suddenly almost didn't swallow in one breath and choked to death.
That's not the point, that's not the point, okay?
"But, Chen'er, you can't help but marry, isn't it just 100,000 taels, small problem, your painting, no, you painted this painting for me, why don't I give you 1,000 taels of silver as a reward?" Zhou Tianque said.
The excited expression suddenly showed on Chen Chen's face, his eyes narrowed happily, and he muttered in his heart, I am waiting for you to say this, but a thousand taels, the richest man is really generous, Chen Chen secretly gave Zhou Tianque, the future "old man", a thumbs up in his heart.
Turning around, Chen Chen looked at Zhou Tianque very embarrassed, with a sad face, "Zhou Yuanwai, how embarrassing is this, my painting is not worth so much silver." ”
"Not worth that much? Then you have to keep it for me. Zhou Tianque stubbornly said to Chen Chen, and then saw that Chen Chen still didn't want to take over, so he helplessly explained: "If you don't accept this silver, make up 100,000 taels, three days, oh no, now there are only two and a half days left, it's like Jingwei reclamation, it's even more difficult, so you might as well go and grab the pawnshop directly." ”
"This ...... All right. Chen Chen hesitated for a while, but finally listened to Zhou Tianque's words and accepted the high price of one thousand taels for Zhou Tianque's painting.
Zhou Tianque nodded with satisfaction, such an obedient son-in-law is a good son-in-law, but the goal of his good son-in-law is a bit difficult, according to Chen Chen's stupid and stupid character who doesn't know how to play, I am afraid it will be difficult to achieve the goal, it seems that he still needs to help the flames in the back.
Lowering his head and thinking about it, Zhou Tianque looked at Chen Chen and gritted his teeth and said, "Chen'er, it's not me who hit you, you are painting...... It's really not worth much. ”
"Ah......" Chen Chen grew his mouth, and was about to stuff a duck egg, and complained in his heart, Nima, he is worthy of being the person sitting in the position of the richest man, the cowhide is not blown, so soon the truth will be revealed.
"Hehe, don't be too careful when I say that." Zhou Tianque saw Chen Chen's surprised appearance, and hurriedly said, lest Chen Chen wait a while and think about the idea of not marrying a wife if he has no money, so he thought of a reason to remedy it: "I'm not saying that your painting is not good, but because your reputation is not enough, you think, you are a newcomer to Henan Mansion, no one in this market knows your name, let alone those officials and businessmen, your people are not famous, no matter how good the painting is, if you don't meet Bole, no one will be willing to take a lot of money to smash it on you, just for a painting." ”
"And what about you?" Chen Chen was stunned for a moment, pretending to be puzzled and asked.
He could probably guess the reason why Zhou Tianque took out so much silver to buy a painting of his own at once, but the play had to play a full set, so whether it was a coordinated question, or a coordinated expression reaction, in short, nothing could be lost.
"How could I buy you a painting for so much silver, right?" Zhou Tianque saw through what Chen Chen was thinking at a glance, and smiled, "Chen'er, don't you want to marry my daughter as scheduled?" ”
Zhou Tianque is asking, Chen Chen is a Gordon in his heart, could it be that Zhou Tianque, the old fox, guessed his thoughts? Probably not.
Without waiting for him to speak, Zhou Tianque continued: "Of course not, right?" ”
Zhou Tianque squeezed his eyes at Chen Chen, and said to himself: "You must be eager to marry my daughter right away." ”
Peat right away. Chen Chen complained in his heart, but his face was still shy, as if he had been seen through by Zhou Tianque.
"So, Chen'er, I'm here to help you." After Zhou Tianque finished speaking, he patted Chen Chen's shoulder and promised: "Don't worry, I'll give you a contact, and if you paint a picture like mine for them at that time, you will definitely be able to earn 100,000 taels in three days." ”
Zhou Tianque patted his chest and said, the kind of self-confidence that is bound to be won is simply admirable, but this is not a matter for Zhou Tianque, the richest man.
After speaking, he instructed the butler: "You will go to the account office later, take a thousand taels of silver, and hand it over to Chen'er." ”
"Chen'er, if you're okay, you can sit here for a while, cultivate your sentiments, or go back to your room to rest, I'll go and get busy first."
After speaking, Zhou Tianque took the housekeeper down to the attic with the painting.
When the person disappeared, Chen Chen stomped his feet excitedly, clenched his fists, and almost didn't jump up.
He's such a genius, how could he be so smart, haha, he's just too smart.
Chen Chen had already analyzed the situation before, and knew that if he relied on his own skills, it would be difficult to earn 100,000 taels in the Great Song Dynasty at once, which was simply an impossible task, but ...... There are still exceptions to things, such as finding a strong foreign aid, that is, someone like Zhou Tianque, it couldn't be better.
Look, he just used a little trick, and let Zhou Tianque obediently become a salesman for himself, or the kind that doesn't want money, the most important thing is that people themselves are still happy.
"Hehe, now I'm just waiting for the old fox to bring someone, it seems that my sketch is going to be popular in the Great Song Dynasty." Chen Chen thought in his heart, and couldn't help but feel a little excited.
After sitting in the attic for a while, Chen Chen went back to the room, and not long after returning to the room, there was a knock on the door, it must be the housekeeper who sent the silver.
Thinking so, Chen Chen hurriedly went to open the door.
"How...... It's you? Opening the door, the smile on Chen Chen's face froze for a moment, and he looked at the person in front of him, and was a little speechless in shock.
It turned out that the person who came was not the housekeeper, but Zhou Xiaoqing.
"Chen Gongzi, don't you invite me in and sit?" Zhou Xiaoqing said softly.
Chen Chen touched his nose, his eyes rolled around, and then he saw the stone table and stone bench in the courtyard, "Why don't we just sit in this courtyard, you see, the green trees are shady, and there are flowers blooming around, how good the environment is." ”
Chen Chen said, he took the lead first, and at this time, he had to take the lead to lead Zhou Xiaoqing to follow.
Zhou Xiaoqing smiled gently, but there was a trace of loss in his eyes, Chen Chen was different from yesterday, as if he was afraid of himself, thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart.
Is this still the result after all?
Zhou Xiaoqing clutched his chest and slowly followed Chen Chen's footsteps.
PS: I just want to collect.
