Chapter 86: Persuasion
Rong Qi also let the eunuch look at him, he couldn't show fear, such a person, once he showed fear, he would immediately turn his face.
Seeing that Rong Qi was still calm, the eunuch withdrew his eyes, but leaned forward slightly: "Then according to you, this matter, forget it like this, do you know ......?"
Rong Zai made a bold guess, the old man used these, and he thought that he also borrowed other names. At this moment, old man, you are in power, naturally everyone praises, and everyone is afraid that they will not hear the words of the old man. But what if the old man loses power? Grandpa, this matter has reached this point, it is better to have a good fate, and it can also fulfill your reputation, grandpa. ”
Rong Qi knew that it would be very detrimental to himself to interrupt the eunuch's speech like this, but since the eunuch had loosened, he could only say it like this.
This made the eunuch look at Rong Qi again: "Then tell me, how do I get this good fate?" ”
"It's July at the moment, it's rainy in Jiangnan, it's inevitable that there will be a big flood, long live and patrol in Jiangnan, the old man might as well send these silvers to Jiangnan, just say, this is a businessman in Beijing, listen to Banzai in Jiangnan patrol, long live in his heart, specially collected so much silver to build the embankment for Banzai." Rong Qi's words made the eunuch laugh three times, and then the eunuch's face changed color: "Okay, it's a good mouth, but you have to know that I have ...... this silver."
"The silver in the world comes from the world, and the old man uses this silver in the township, only benefiting one township, and using it in Jiangnan, but it has benefited the entire Jiangnan. Rong Qi's words made the eunuch stare at him again, and after a while, he said, "You don't know to me?" When you say this, when the time comes, the silver they will give out will only be twenty or thirty thousand thousand, and what good use will these silver be? ”
There were always forty or fifty people arrested this time, and even if there were twenty or thirty thousand in each family, there were millions, and the appetite of the eunuch was really greater than anyone else. Rong Qi couldn't help but marvel after calculating it in his heart, and then said: "Twenty or thirty thousand yuan per family, which is a lot together, besides, I am just a distant nephew of the head of the Rong family, but I came to replace my uncle in order to repay my kindness." Even if the old man detains me here, he can't exchange half of the family's wealth. ”
The eunuch's brows immediately furrowed, and the little eunuch said something in the eunuch's ear, and the eunuch's body leaned forward more and more: "You, this person, actually let me go, do you know, I'm not afraid." ”
Rong Qi spread his hand at the eunuch: "The old man is naturally well-informed, but even if you take my life, that's it." ”
The eunuch's brows furrowed again, and Rong Qi let him see, when doing business, he must first leak the bottom again and again, and now, he can already leak the last bottom, and the last time.
The July sun is still a little spicy, everyone is waiting outside, seeing that Rong Qi has been in and not coming out, they can't help but be a little impatient, is it not appropriate for Rong Qi to answer inside, which makes the people inside angry? Will this affect everyone?
The people outside were thinking wildly, but the eunuch inside still looked at Rong Qi, and after a long time, he said, "Then according to you, what should happen to me in this matter?" Rong Qi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he finally heard this, and this eunuch must have an idea in his heart, and he asked himself, but he just wanted to test it. Rong Qi deliberately frowned and thought about it, and then said: "Half of the money raised, the old grandfather will send it to Jiangnan, and the other half will go home to benefit the old folks. ”
"You are really cunning." The eunuch's tone began to calm down, Rong Qi knew his idea, but he was afraid that it was similar to what the eunuch thought, so he let go of his heart and kowtowed to the eunuch again: "In the next year, I am young and shallow, but I just made an idea in vain." The old man is well-informed, and his ideas will only be better than those below. ”
Only then did a smile appear on the eunuch's lips: "Don't come here to say such deceitful things, it's just that, I have other ideas for this matter." Saying that, the eunuch gave a few words to the little eunuch, and the little eunuch showed a look of surprise on his face, but he still retreated.
Only then did the eunuch raise his hand: "Get up, if you follow your behavior, you are a scoundrel and articulate, you should be beaten." But if you are young and have filial piety, you will be exempted. It's just that this beating can be avoided, this silver, but it is inevitable! ”
Rong Qi was already about to stand up, but when he heard this, he knelt down again: "Grandpa, 200,000 taels, it's not worth so much in the next place." The eunuch slapped the shocked wood again: "Why do you want so much, but it's only 20,000 silver, 20,000 silver, it's not that your family can't get it, right?" ”
"This, it is up to my uncle to call the shots." Rong Qi's words made the eunuch's face sink, and Rong Qi hurriedly said: "Grandpa, uncle is not a father after all. ”
"Whether you can take it or not, I'll write it down anyway, I'm not afraid of you." After the eunuch said this, he picked up the tea bowl next to him and took a sip of tea, and when he saw that Rong Qi was still kneeling, he drank: "Don't hurry up and get out of here, this matter is none of your business." ”
Although it was scolding, Rong Qi's heart was relieved, this matter seemed to be over, 20,000 silver, Master Rong should be able to come out, Rong Qi kowtowed to the eunuch again, and then got up and left.
The courtyard outside is very lively at the moment, if it weren't for the fact that there were officials next to it, I was afraid that someone would be shouting loudly. Rong Qi knew that he was afraid that this was the result of the little eunuch who had already come out and said that the detention of everyone was just the result of raising money for the floods in Jiangnan.
Seeing Rong Qi walking out, someone had already pulled his shirt and asked, "Third Master Rong, how much do you want from your family?" ”
"Two ......" Rong Qi glanced at the little eunuch, and before he finished speaking, the man's eyes had already lit up: "Two thousand silver?" If so, it's not that you can't take it. ”
"Not two thousand, but twenty thousand silver." Rong Qi's words silenced everyone for a moment, and then began to continue the discussion. Rong Qi knew that this was almost the bottom line of the eunuch, so naturally they would discuss it, and in the end, after all, they drew a charge on the notebook taken out by the little eunuch, at least the one that came out with fifteen thousand.
Now that the purpose has been achieved, the closed door is opened, and the people are sent out. Seeing that it was the street outside instead of the cell, although everyone lost a lot of silver, they were still happy in their hearts, and there were already people from various families waiting there who came forward to greet the master, Rong Qi looked around, and couldn't see the people of the Rong family, did the uncle really care about himself?
Although he already knew that this ending was normal, Rong Qi still inevitably had some pimples in his heart, and looked around, Rong Qi decided to tell the Zheng family the news, and in the future, he was afraid of being with his uncle, thinking about Rong Qi couldn't help but sigh softly, and was about to leave when he heard the voice of Steward Chen: "Third master, third master, you are here." ”
Rong Qi looked at Steward Chen who suddenly appeared, and couldn't help blinking: "Steward Chen, I originally thought it was ......"
"Why do you think so? When the master went back yesterday, he didn't even have time to take a shower, so he asked me to go to the shopkeeper and see how much silver could be removed here. Third master, the people I heard said that this was raised for the Jiangnan flood, and each family came out? How much is our home? ”
Rong Qi looked at Steward Chen: "It's sent down, 20,000." This number made Steward Chen stunned, and then Steward Chen smiled: "Fortunately, it's okay, the master originally planned to break 50,000 silver at most." ”
Now that he has saved 30,000 silver at once, it is no wonder that Steward Chen looks relieved. Rong Qi smiled and said, "Steward Chen, I'm going to Zheng's house, you go back and tell your uncle, when you go over there, you will go and greet your uncle." ”
The Zheng family? Steward Chen's eyebrows furrowed again: "Third master, I know that you are still a little annoyed with the master, but the master is also for your good, you want to marry a wife who will help you, and if something happens at that time, it will be good to help you, otherwise, you will be alone." ”
"Steward Chen, I'm not annoying my uncle, I'm just thinking that my father-in-law is still worried about me." Rong Qi's words still didn't make Steward Chen loosen his eyebrows, and he was about to continue persuasion when he heard Master Rong's voice in his ears. Master Rong's voice has always hated iron and steel: "Things are done, and you don't leave, is this yamen auspicious?" ”
Rong Qi looked at Master Rong and knew that Master Rong would not come forward, so Rong Qi stepped forward to salute Master Rong: "I've seen uncle." ”
"Get up, this matter is tired of you, but I still say that, that doorman, I don't agree." Master Rong looked at Rong Qi, feeling relieved and sad, and a little distressed. Rong Qi was not surprised that Master Rong would say this, and the smile on his face did not change: "Uncle meant, I know." But I only want to marry such a woman in this life, and my heart is also in her. So, uncle, after this incident, the nephew has already repaid the kindness of the uncle, and in the future, he will ask the uncle to cherish it himself. ”
Rong Qi's words made Master Rong change color, and then he said angrily: "Are you going to be angry with me?" Steward Chen watched from the sidelines, and couldn't help but want to give Rong Qi a look, this matter must be done slowly, not so directly.
Rong Qi's eyes lowered slightly, and then he said to Master Rong: "My nephew is not Uncle Qi. It's just that this woman is related to my heart, I want to marry her, I want to marry her seriously, I don't want her to be compromised, I want her to be generous with her concubines. ”
May she, in this life, be able to raise her head and be a person. When Rong Qi mentioned Yanran, the smile on his lips was sweet, so Rong Qi looked at Master Rong again: "Uncle doesn't agree to this marriage, nephew understands, nephew just wants to repay uncle, after the report, nephew will leave uncle for her, and hope that uncle will ......"
With a snap, Rong Qi received another slap in the face, Rong Qi still looked at Master Rong, and Master Rong sighed: "That's it, that's it, you kid, since you poke my heart like this, I can only admit it." ”
The author has something to say: it's finally time to get married, huhu.
