Chapter 319: The Dowry That Soars All the Way
Mi Zhu's worries are not unreasonable, Zhang Ming was going to kidnap Mi Zhu at the beginning, but he went to the state governor's mansion.
Now that Zhang Ming is back, it is not impossible to arrest him.
Mi Zhu was afraid, so he sent people to find Zhang Ming again and again, but he didn't dare to go in person.
It's been two days, and Zhang Ming hasn't seen anyone who sent him, and Mi Zhu still sent people again and again.
However, Zhang Ming ignored him completely.
On the third day, Mi Zhu knew that it was useless for anyone to go unless he went in person.
However, Mi Zhu is very entangled.
He didn't send anyone to find Zhang Ming today.
This Zhang Ming camped twenty miles outside the city, as if he didn't plan to leave.
Mi Zhu walked around in his yard.
Without going to see Zhang Ming in person, this matter cannot be resolved.
"See, for the honor of my Mi family, I must go to see Zhang Ming."
Mi Zhu felt that Zhang Ming's detention of him would not do much good.
I just don't know how Zhang Ming wants to kill him.
He went to see Liu Bei first and explained the situation to Liu Bei, otherwise he would be suspicious of Liu Bei if he went to see Zhang Ming without permission.
There was no way, that afternoon, Mi Zhu took a heavy gift, and then went to see Mi Zhu.
"Finally Ken came."
Zhang Ming received the news in the barracks.
"Third brother, fourth brother, go and meet my eldest brother, you are my younger brother, you should go to greet me."
Zhang Ming put on more formal clothes, and then took Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun out of the camp to greet him.
"Hahaha, uncle, we meet again."
Uncle?
Mi Zhu's face flashed with imperceptible bitterness.
This sentence of the eldest brother blocked the way to talk about redemption.
Zhang Ming is going to settle Mi Lan, and Mi Zhu has no way to go back.
Zhang Ming welcomed Mi Zhu into the barracks, and then poured good tea.
"Uncle, this tea is a good tea, you can taste it."
Mizhu is bitter, where is there any mind to drink tea.
After taking a casual sip, Mi Zhu put down the cup.
"Uncle, you have to taste this tea, maybe you will have a fate with the Mi family in the future."
Mi Zhu still didn't have the heart to drink tea, but Zhang Ming said so, always taste it carefully, don't ask if the tea is good later, he will use a good tea to perfunctory.
"How's this tea?"
"Good tea."
Mi Zhu still didn't taste anything, so he could only use a good tea to perfunctory.
"Uncle, about the marriage with Mi Lan, I don't know what you want to do?"
The corners of Mi Zhu's mouth twitched, and Zhang Ming was about to start starting.
"It's convenient to see Zhang Zhoumu."
"It's convenient for me to send someone to give a dowry in a few days, but we have to discuss this dowry."
What is discussed is not a dowry but a dowry?
Except for Mi Zhu, the rest of the people who were watching thought they had heard it wrong.
In order to show respect for Mi Zhu, the main figures in General Zhang Ming, as well as Guo Jia and Dian Wei, were invited.
Everyone accompanied, but Zhang Ming was not polite at all, and asked for a dowry directly.
"Little sister, I have loved it since I was a child, and now she is getting married, as a brother, I only hope that she can live a good life in the future, I am willing to invest 100,000 yuan to buy some dowry for her."
Zhang Ming nodded and said, "Don't worry, the head of the Mi family, although Sister Ling is just a concubine, I will treat her well." ”
Concubine?
This Mi Zhu was startled, and hurriedly said: "The 100,000 dowry can't reflect my love for my little sister at all, I think I have to prepare 500,000 dowry for her to express my love as a brother." ”
Concubine? Let his Mi Zhu's sister be a concubine, how can he bear it.
Zhang Ming took a sip of tea, laughed, and then said: "Okay, thank you to the head of the Mi family, I will get married in the army tomorrow, and then I will invite the head of the Mi family to come over and drink the wedding wine together." ”
Married in the army?
Getting married tomorrow?
Where did Mi Zhu put his face, his own sister got married, and she was in the army, and a group of big-headed soldiers participated, and there were no heavyweight guests.
Mi Zhu couldn't accept it, and he said: "Xiaomei has two elder brothers, and one of them gives a dowry of 500,000 yuan, which is a dowry of one million." ”
This dowry, from 100,000 to 1 million now, many people still haven't figured out what's going on.
This Zhang Ming is blackmailing his Mi family.
With a dowry of one million, Mi Zhu felt that this Zhang Ming should be satisfied.
A dowry of a million, which is not a lot at all.
Zhang Ming poured tea for everyone again, and then said: "It is true that the marriage in the army is really in a hurry, so it is better to go back to Youzhou first, prepare for more than a year, and then hold the wedding." ”
Mi Zhu's hand twitched, and he almost couldn't hold the cup.
For more than a year, this is waiting for the children to be born.
When the time comes, hold the child and get married?
This is ancient times, and the face of the Mi family is about to be lost.
Mi Zhu gritted his teeth and said: "One million for one person, two million dowry." ”
This Mi Zhu couldn't stay calm, let alone chat with Zhang Ming slowly.
If this matter is not resolved, he is really uneasy.
I saw Zhang Ming say again: "This time I got married in Youzhou, and I had to send out invitations, and then publish them in the newspaper three times in a row, which cost too much, and I think I can't do it without five million." ”
Million?
Zhang Ming only defrauded five million dollars from Liu Bei, right?
Now that Mi Lan has been kidnapped, he is going to extort five million from his Mi family?
Mi Zhu was dripping blood in his heart.
How big is this Zhang Ming's appetite, from 100,000 to now, the price has been rising, directly to 5 million.
Newspaper publication three times in a row?
Now the circulation of the newspaper is huge, it is already hundreds of thousands of copies, and it can reach many places in Dahan, which is a threat.
Zhang Ming didn't say what the newspaper published, if it was not good for the Mi family?
Mi Zhu can't imagine what will happen in the end if he doesn't meet Zhang Ming's requirements.
"That's right, that's right, it's really a blessing for my little sister to marry Zhang Zhoumu, I don't have six million dollars, how can I express the joy in my heart as an elder brother."
Six million, another one million, you Zhang Ming have to give some benefits, right? At the very least, we have to publish some good news in the newspapers.
Everyone was dumbfounded, are these two talking about marriage? It's more like talking about business.
If it is to talk about business, then Zhang Ming must be a profiteer.
Six million, of course, sold.
Zhang Ming didn't mean to continue to increase the price.
This Mi family is a family, not a force, six million, which is already a lot.
You must know that Zhang Ming defrauded Liu Bei of only five million, and he is the state pastor of Xuzhou.
After finalizing the price, Zhang Ming said: "When I return to Youzhou, I will start preparing for the wedding, and I will also send a large team to propose marriage." ”
"By the way, uncle, we will be our own people in the future, you can see this tea, I have a lot of tea, I want to sell some of it in Xuzhou, and your Mi family will help me sell it, what do you think?"
At this time, Mi Zhu was in the mood to drink tea, although he was extorted six million, but at least the matter could be resolved satisfactorily.
Six million really made the Mi family a little broken.
But the money can still be paid, and it must be paid.
No, the reputation is bad, this Liu Bei may not be able to reuse him, slowly, their Mi family will also encounter a lot of difficulties, and finally completely weakened.
