102. Read a book

The frightened Zhang Guifei and Lu Jin were both excited, and the words they said were not spicy: "You...... What do you want to do, don't forget, this is the royal family, I am the royal concubine, if something happens to me, you can't get out of here......"

The shopkeeper smiled coldly: "If we can't hand over the silver, will the eldest princess send us to Dali Temple, or the end of the road, Zhang Guifei, the 220,000 taels of silver, you are greedy for half of it, and now you actually ask us in turn, what does it have to do with you when we eat a lawsuit, are you planning to be unkind, stay out of the matter, let us pay back the 220,000 taels of silver?" ”

Zhang Guifei's eyes flashed unnaturally: "If you hand over two taels of silver, or a poor shopkeeper, won't you leave the capital with the silver, each of you is also greedy for nearly 10,000 taels of silver, enough ,...... for the rest of your life" In this way, the silver you are greedy for is meaningless to return and return, killing two birds with one stone, and both sides are mutually beneficial."

The ridicule in the shopkeeper's eyes was even stronger: "You think we haven't been so hopeful, Gu Chichi is much smarter than you imagined, after we returned to the shop from the royal family, we tried to escape, but at the gate of the city, the vigilance is extremely strict, and we can't escape......"

Zhang Guifei was shocked: "You mean...... Gu Chichi used the involvement of the Prime Minister's Palace...... Damn Gu Chi Chi ......"

"That's right, there are people from the Prime Minister's Palace at the four city gates, not to mention that we are the shopkeepers, even the unsuspecting family members, and the guys in the shop, can't get out of the city gate for half a step......" Up to now, I can only hand over the silver to avoid prison, otherwise, it is not only myself who is bad, but also my family, worthy of being the granddaughter of the Prime Minister's Palace, Gu Chichi is indeed smart.

"Then I'll ask the Imperial Palace to assist...... "No matter what, I can't hand over the silver taels......

The shopkeeper snorted disdainfully: "Forget it, the Prime Minister's Palace, but the century-old family in the capital, it is difficult to return, and the power is huge, your Imperial History Palace is only three years, how can it be the same as the Prime Minister's Palace, we still want to live for a few more years, and Zhang Guifei should stop looking for trouble......" Zhang Guifei's ungrateful behavior made the shopkeeper very annoying, and the tone of her voice was also with disdain and ridicule.

"How much spicy is a lot of silver taels, can you make up enough?" Zhang Guifei is greedy for silver, but she spends seventy-seven eighty-eight, and she takes out 110,000 taels in ten days, and the foundation will not work!

"Make up for what you don't have." The shopkeeper's tone was slightly cold: "Several of us have already said that if we smash the pot and sell iron, we will also hand over the amount we are greedy for, if Zhang Guifei doesn't want to be imprisoned, I will obediently hand over the 110,000 taels of silver......"

"110,000 taels is not a small amount, where can I get so much silver out in ten days?" Zhang Guifei was very anxious: Most of the silver was bought by her mother's family, and it was already gone, so how could she still get it.

But if you don't pay the money, the shopkeeper will give it to you, and at that time, you will have no place in the royal family, not to mention, and it will also bring damage to the reputation of your parents, and the entire Imperial History Palace will be bad.

As a poor Lingyuan from a petty official family, she has had enough of being looked down upon, and she never wants to return to that kind of life......

"That's Zhang Guifei's job, and it has nothing to do with us." When I was greedy for silver, how could I not think that I was greedy too much, but now that I have repaid the silver, I know that I have a lot of debts.

Looking out the window, the time is not short, and the shopkeeper starts to say goodbye: "I have already brought the words, what to do next, it is useless for me to remind the concubine again, 110,000 taels of silver is not a small amount, it can't be taken at one time, if you wish, I will order someone to take a little every night, and Zhang Guifei will prepare it......"

After speaking, the shopkeeper didn't look at Zhang Guifei, who was colorless, and walked straight into the night......

Zhang Guifei's full strength seemed to be taken away in an instant, and she collapsed to the ground tiredly: 110,000 taels of silver, I can't take out so much if I sell myself, what should I do, what should I do......

Yanyu Pavilion, Gu Chi Chi sat at the table, listening to the guards report everything that happened in the Orchid Garden, Zhang Guifei was greedy for 110,000 taels of silver, and her appetite was really not small: "Did Zhang Guifei say anything, where did the silver go?" ”

"I didn't say it, but after the shopkeeper left, Zhang Guifei ordered people to go to the Imperial History Palace under the city......"

Gu Chichi smiled lightly, put down the teacup in his hand, and touched the account book on the side with his fingers: It seems that most of the silver is for Zhang Yushi to dredge up the relationship, saying that it is in line with the people's popularity, Zhang Guifei is smart, and raising her mother's family is to raise her identity, and the royal subordinates will also look down on her, this is a glory......

"Continue to stare at the Orchid Garden, and see what other small movements Zhang Guifei has." Before she had another move, Zhang Guifei was in a hurry to become like this, I don't know, when she made the last move she had hidden and let them take advantage of the fire to plunder, they were crazy, or they broke up directly......

The next day, Zhang Guifei got up early in the morning, walking back and forth in the boudoir anxiously, when did her mother come, and when did she come......

"Guifei, Mrs. Yushi is here......" Before the maid outside the door spoke, Zhang Guifei's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly greeted her: "Mother, you are here after all......"

Eyes swept to the little maid on the side, Zhang Guifei coughed lightly: "Go make two cups of tea." ”

The little maid said goodbye, and Mrs. Yushi patted Zhang Guifei's hand, and smiled kindly: "It's not the first time that my mother has come to get the silver, what are you anxious about, we haven't talked for a long time, let's talk first......"

At this time in previous years, Zhang Guifei called her to come to give her a lot of silver, therefore, Mrs. Yushi thought that it was not an exception, Zhang Yushi's promotion was frustrated, and it was the time when she needed silver and bought off the relationship, when Zhang Guifei ordered someone to go to the Yushi Palace to report that the concubine wanted to see Mrs. Yushi, Mrs. Yushi smiled from ear to ear, and rewarded her daughter with her confidant.

Zhang Guifei sighed heavily: "Mother, I invited you to come over this time, not to take the silver, but to discuss how to return the silver you took in the past." Then, Concubine Zhang Guifei reported all the things that happened in Songshoutang yesterday to Mrs. Yushi.

Mrs. Yushi's eyes widened in shock: "What you said is true?" "Ten days, enough 110,000 taels of silver, how is this?

"It's true, Gu Chichi has already placed a very late dish on the shopkeeper, if they can't get the shortage of silver taels, they will all enter Dali Temple, and when the time comes, they won't be able to endure the torture, and they will definitely confess their daughter, and their father and mother will also be tired......"

Mrs. Yushi's eyes flashed, and she lowered her voice: "The shopkeepers are all ordinary people, so let's just don't do it, and we will kill them all." "In this way, there is no need to take 110,000 taels of silver.

"Nope." Zhang Guifei sternly rejected Mrs. Yushi's proposal: "Gu Chichi used the Prime Minister's Palace, there must be guards in the dark to protect those shopkeepers, if we send someone to assassinate them, not only can we not successfully seal the mouths of the shopkeepers, maybe we will also draw snakes and add to the foot, implicating all the Yushi Palace, at that time, Daddy's way out is over, and we will have to go through the hard days of the past......"

"So what do you say?" Mrs. Yushi was also anxious: "The silver foundation of the Yushi Palace is not enough, and the silver related to gifts and buying has not yet been settled, how can you use silver to make up for the lack of ...... in the shop?"

"In the palace, don't you have 10,000 taels of silver?" Zhang Guifei held a glimmer of hope, at least, let her respond to the urgency of the night first.

In addition to Taixi, Mrs. Yushi shook her head: "In order to buy off the relationship, your father sent out a lot of expensive gifts, not to mention 10,000 taels, even 1,000 taels, and there are a few other important officials who have not given gifts, I thought that I took the silver from you and returned to it urgently, how could I have ......thought that "I didn't get a tael of silver, I didn't say it, I had to send it out......

"What can I do?" Zhang Guifei is like an ant on a hot pot, anxious.

Mrs. Yushi sighed heavily: "I'll discuss with your father first, and see if I can make up a few silver taels." "The Imperial History Palace has been an empty shell for a long time, with a lantern in front of the door, the house is empty, and the silver in the palace is not enough to spend every year......

Zhang Guifei nodded, she no longer had the strength to speak, and she also knew that Mrs. Yushi would definitely never go back, and she couldn't make up a tael of silver, so she had to rely on herself to pay off the 110,000 taels of silver.

After Mrs. Yushi left, Zhang Guifei sat on the chair for a long time, just came back to her senses, staggered into the boudoir, took the delicate gold jewelry box on the dressing table, opened it and saw that the colorful and exquisite gold jewelry dazzled people's eyes.

Zhang Guifei's properly maintained face showed a bitter smile, these gold ornaments were all bought with the 110,000 taels of silver, even if they were all returned, they would be worth nearly 10,000 taels of silver, with an interval of 110,000 yuan, which was far from the difference.

"Green brocade, bring all the gold ornaments of the second princess, and then see if there are any new clothes, and bring them all over ......"

"Yes!" Lu Jin agreed, and walked quickly to the Yuenan Pavilion.

Yanyu Pavilion, Gu Chichi sat at the table reading a book, and the guards came to report: "Zhang Guifei took her and the second princess's gold ornaments and prepared to sell them, and there are many other second princesses' clothes, some have not been worn, some have only been worn once or twice, they look like new, and they are going to be sold in a tailor shop as new clothes, and those expensive whitewashes on their clothes, Zhang Guifei has also removed them all, and prepared to exchange them for silver......"

Xiaoying sat back and said helplessly: "Zhang Guifei is planning to smash the pot and sell iron to return the princess's silver......"

Gu Chichi smiled faintly: "Even if all these things are sold, it is only a small amount, with an interval of 110,000 taels of silver, which is still far away, but Zhang Guifei is also smart, now that the end of the year is approaching, many people are buying new clothes, Gu Nan's clothes, whether it is color or style, are suitable for Chinese New Year wear, and they should be sold at a good price......

Xiaoying smiled complacently: "Princess, Concubine Zhang is not a tailor, the clothes she sells are sold by other tailors, and they will be purchased at a reduced price......

Gu Chichi picked up the teacup and took a sip: "That's natural, even if the clothes are new, they will be lowered by two or three layers on the basis of the original price, by the way, which tailor shop did Zhang Guifei take the clothes to sell?" ”

"Princess Hui, it is a tailor shop called Yi Nan in the north of the city, which was opened two years ago, and the dark investigation of the lowly job discovered this tailor shop is the ...... under the name of Zhang Guifei"

"What?" Gu Chi stood up suddenly, and his liver burned in his beautiful eyes: "Zhang Guifei actually opened a tailor shop with greedy silver?" "If you sell it in the store, you won't depreciate the price.

"Eldest princess, you can't afford to sell Zhang Guifei at a low price." Xiaoying was indignant, she was greedy for so much money from her wife, and she paid off her idleness, so how could she do it if she didn't rectify it ruthlessly.

Gu Chichi's eyes were light: The old book with a high demand for opening a gold shop, Zhang Guifei should not be talented, she can afford to open a gold shop, the account book of the gold shop under Xie Zixin's name is here, Zhang Guifei does not dare to take any more action, so naturally she will not sell gold jewelry from this gold shop.

What's more, those gold ornaments are more expensive than clothes, Zhang Guifei will definitely sell them all within ten days to fill the gap, looking at the whole capital, the very big, very famous gold shop is Bao Zhai Xing: "Is there a way to find out who is the master behind Bao Zhai Xing?" "Zhang Guifei's gold jewelry, she will not let her sell solemnity.

"Hui eldest princess, I heard the prince mention it once, Bao Zhai Xing, it is like a family item under the name of Chu Xuan Palace."

Chu Xuan Palace, isn't that Ouyang
