Chapter 156: Dog Bites Dog (Part II)

Lu Chen finally had a good night's sleep, and he didn't want to be called by Xia Xiaodong just after breakfast.

"How is the Wuda family?" Xia Xiaodong just drank two bowls of warm white porridge, and only felt that his chest and abdomen were warm and comfortable, and he was in a good mood.

Lu Chen barely squeezed out a smile: "They ......, saying that they are ......, and they can make up sixty taels by smashing pots and selling iron, and they want to see if they can ask the girl to be accommodating." ”

Originally, Lu Chen was in a dilemma how to talk to the girl, but now it's okay, the girl asked first, so let's take the lead.

"Sixty taels?" Xia Xiaodong thought for a while: "What I said before was that I asked them for eighty taels to redeem myself, right?" ”

"Yes, I just want to reduce twenty taels." Lu Chen secretly pondered, not knowing if Miss Xia would agree. The Wuda family may not really be able to find twenty taels, but now that the mountains and rivers are exhausted, they can naturally save a little bit, and it is good to try the girl's mind.

"Oh, twenty taels." Xia Xiaodong pinched his fingers and made a pinch look.

It's just twenty taels, what is it? Lu Chen bent his waist down by two points, pretending not to see it.

"Eighty plus twenty, exactly one hundred." Xia Xiaodong happily 'calculated' it: "Let them take two ingots of fifty taels of official silver to redeem themselves." ”

Lu Chen's mouth opened wide.

It turned out to be such an algorithm.

Want to minus twenty? Then add twenty?

Still bargaining or not?

Moreover, there is a big difference in the fineness of silver. The best condition is the newly baked official silver. The official silver of the big ingot is fifty taels, the shape of the ingots is shiny silver, and there is the mark of the official treasury at the bottom, which is the hardest currency.

Asking for official silver means that it cannot be accommodating at all in terms of fineness.

This time, they are really self-defeating.

Tempting the girl? Hehe, the price is very high.

"I'm going to go and talk to them about it." In this way, Lu Chen figured out Xia Xiaodong's temperament a lot, and immediately replied respectfully.

"Wait, there's a compromise." Xia Xiaodong said with a smile: "I have to give people one more way, don't let people say that I treat them harshly." ”

One more way?

"Excuse me, girl." Lu Chen hurriedly folded back.

"There is an account room surnamed Huang in the fifth room of the Lu family, do you know?"

"That must be Huang Zhongchang. He is not only surnamed Huang, but also has a yellow face, even his eyes are yellow, and it is said that his body is not very good, and everyone secretly calls him Huang Laobu in private. Lu Chen knew everything.

Huang Lao No. To be old and not die is to be a thief. This man doesn't seem to win much popularity.

"This yellow account has a nephew, I don't know what his name is, he is usually called Huang Erye, do you know?"

"There's nothing wrong with it, it's just that the people outside are screaming. That Huang Er, whose big name is Huang Daoyuan, has a nickname called Huang Baozao. often does some bullshit things, and causes trouble for the yellow account room. Lu Chen said endlessly: "It is said that he is the nephew of the Yellow Ledger, but in fact, Huang Er's father went early, and he has followed the Yellow Ledger since he was a child, and he is about the same distance from his son." ”

"Well, it's Huang Er." Xia Xiaodong was very satisfied with Lu Chen's attitude: "You go and tell them that if you get Huang Er's identity deed to me, then you can exchange the identity deed of their family." That's it. ”

It looks like one for four, it seems to be a bit of a loss. However, Xia Xiaodong knows that there should be only one person in the Wuda family who really has the final say, and most of them are Wuda. The others were mules in the stable—listening and drinking, and running blindly on both sides. So it's not a loss.

If Xia Xiaodong goes to negotiate with Wufang, of course, he will definitely be able to solve the matter effortlessly. The fifth lady is such a shrewd person, if she gives the shop to someone, she will definitely give it clean and beautiful, if she knows that Huang Er has made such a show, she will definitely not protect it. Not only will he not protect it, but he may be killed directly to Xia Xiaodong.

But it doesn't have to be?

Things that can be solved at the bottom, there is no need to alarm the higher-ups.

This is one of the important unspoken rules of the mansion door.

Xia Xiaodong still understands it very well.

Let Wu Da deal with Huang Er, which is equivalent to saving him a hundred taels of silver, or official silver, and he will definitely use his strength to eat milk.

A person like Wu Da, who has been in the Lu family for many years and has ambitions to improve, may still be poor in skills for master-level figures like Xia Xiaodong, and if he deals with the minions, he will have more means.

Moreover, whether it is the yellow account room behind Huang Er, or anyone else, Wu Da knows all kinds of relationships better! I will definitely cut the grass and eradicate it without leaving trouble for myself.

Isn't this much better than Xia Xiaodong doing it himself.

……

……

Of course, Lu Chen could understand the truth, and his heart healed, he became more and more respectful, and he responded in a loud voice, and retreated outside the second gate.

Met Archie head-on.

"......" the corners of Lu Chen's mouth twitched. This Archie, who met late with a nod, naturally recognizes it, but the roots of the people are not very clear.

"Steward Lu," Archie was very affectionate, as if he was waiting here: "The girl is looking for you, is it about Huang Er?" ”

Lu Chen nodded, but still cautiously did not disclose the specific situation.

"Here's for you, then." Archie handed over a piece of paper: "Oh, the old foundation of the yellow account room, and the dirty things that Huang Er has done in the past few years." Huang Er said it personally. ”

Gotcha, if you want to kill, even the knife is ready for you. If you don't kill well, you're embarrassed to see people.

……

……

Huang Ledger felt that something was wrong in the past two days, his eyelids were beating fast, but his heart was beating fast and slowly. The other people who sat in the account house together and looked at the account book all had a little strange look in their eyes, as if they were looking at a dead person.

He decided to take a few days off and go home to rest. The manager of the general accounting room, the most trusted steward of the Lu family, can be given the surname Lu, stared at him steadily for a while, and then readily agreed: "Okay, let Ah Xuan accompany you back." ”

Ah Xuan is a small servant, similar to an apprentice in the account room, in addition to washing the pen and grinding ink, he usually serves the gentlemen in the account room.

Due to the sensitivity of the profession of the accounting room, it is easy to be associated with the cat, and the gentlemen consciously go in and out, even if they go home, they will call a small servant to follow, so it is reasonable for the Lu steward to let Ah Xuan accompany him.

It's just ......, Huang Ledger felt that Ah Xuan's eyes were not right, why did he always stare at his two feet, as if he was afraid that he would run away if he pulled out his feet?

The yellow ledger rubbed his eyes.

It must have been overworked recently, and my mind was in a trance. If you look at anyone wrong, then it's obviously yourself who is wrong. I'll have to ask Ah Tao to buy some supplements to stew the soup. By the way, I haven't seen that kid for a few days, and most of them have gone to Lianxiangyuan again......
