Chapter 850: Courtesy is more important than profit

Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

In the opening match, Satsuki Society relied on their strong strength to completely crush their opponents and take the first place, and at the same time, they also shocked Tokyo. The people began to talk about who was better between them and Qiyun Society.

This is different from the beginning, before the game is played, almost everyone is optimistic that Qi Yunshe will win the final championship, just to see who can put some pressure on Qiyunshe.

But now, no one dares to say that.

The people of the capital also began to dig up the news in the Shayue Society, and they were very interested in what they ate and what they used.

At the same time, the Shayue Society also relied on this battle to receive a lot of popularity, and of course, benefits also followed. First of all, the Zhou Family Silk Village and the Shayue Club reached an agreement, all the clothes of the Shayue Club players, from the inside to the outside, from life to the field, are all provided by the Zhou Family Silk Village for free, Zhou Qing thought to himself, as long as you can play in the finals, no matter whether you win or lose, he will earn.

In addition, Fan Shaobai may be a player from the Shayue Club who comes to Fan Lou to eat, all for free. It is conceivable that if the Shayue Society can go to Fanlou to eat, then those Keju fans will not flock to it.

And the rest of the Kemari Society is really envious, eager to play immediately, and their desire for the game has reached the limit.

However, since the first Tokyo Badminton Tournament will be held at the same time as the Keju Tournament, they will have to wait two days to play. In fact, Li Qi doesn't want to end the national competition so early, because the longer it drags on, the more foreign consumption will be, and it's really unreasonable not to make this money!

This morning, the badminton match officially started.

Since it is an indoor sport, even if the seats are full, the number of people cannot be compared to Kemari.

However, because badminton is a sport that has only recently emerged, it has also attracted a lot of people to watch, especially those literati and scholars, who still like to be more urbane and elegant, but unfortunately after Keju joined Li Qi's violent school, it became unrecognizable, making them lose their own advantages, and the rise of the Shayue Society also told them very well, as far as their body was concerned, they gradually kept up with it. So they began to turn their attention to badminton, Li Qi, Gao Yu, Richard and other big names were also present, not only that, Gao Yu also specially invited some foreign and foreign guests to watch, which is also to help badminton publicity.

The biggest sponsor of badminton this time is none other than Uncle He Jiu, and he is also very excited, because whether the badminton competition can succeed is directly related to his business.

However, it is precisely because badminton is just emerging, so the level of the opening match against both sides is not very high, of course, this is only in the eyes of Li Qi, the future generations, you must know that he used to live in the kingdom of badminton, in the Olympic Games, if the Chinese team does not win all the gold medals, then in the eyes of the Chinese people is losing, which is unreasonable.

I can't help but feel a little dazy when I see it, but after all, he is the creator of badminton, and he must cheer up and cheer hard, which is extremely exciting in the eyes of others, but he just wants not to let himself fall asleep.

However, other people are very devoted, no matter what, to be qualified to stand on this, it is also the first batch of professional badminton players today, which is much better than those amateurs.

Hong Tianjiu has never had the slightest resistance to some novel things, and he was extremely excited to see it, as if he wanted to give it a try, and said: "Brother, you see that there are strong teams such as Shayue Club in the Keju Competition, otherwise, let's play badminton instead." ”

Gao Yanei was particularly angry when he heard this, his father is Brother Yu, the first superstar in the Great Song Dynasty, of course he has to inherit the mantle of Brother Yu, and said: "Xiao Jiu, how can you increase his popularity and destroy our prestige, what is his Shayue Society, if it weren't for my carelessness and defeat to Qi Yun Society, our Taiwei Mansion would definitely be able to win his Shayue Society, you just wait and see, don't say anything like this, otherwise you won't even be able to do it." ”

Hong Tianjiu saw that Gao Ya was excited, and he really didn't dare to say any more

After several twists and turns, the opening match finally ended, and everyone stood up and applauded.

It's finally over. Seeing that they were so enthusiastic, Li Qi also put a lot of heart

On the second day of the badminton opener, Richard and others were ready to embark on the return journey, in fact, if it wasn't for the Keju Competition, he would have gone back a long time ago, after all, he still had a task to do.

However, this time, in addition to Zhao Huan and the officials of Honglu Temple, there was one more person, and this person was Li Qi.

Originally, the etiquette of this envoy returning to China was very complicated, and he had to give gifts, and he also had to send an envoy to accompany him, but this time it was much simpler, there was almost no etiquette at all, and if he wanted to talk about etiquette, Zhao Huan was etiquette.

As for the return gifts, even more so, a few donkey carts, with a few sacks of hemp on them, bulging, could never be gold and silver treasures.

This is so simple that the envoys of Western Xia are a little uncomfortable, you must know that they are still looking forward to this gift, because this is their best opportunity to make oil and water. All thought to themselves, no, why didn't they return the gift, this is definitely not like the style of the Great Song Dynasty. So the envoys had to look back after a few steps, with a hint of anxiety in their eyes, hoping for a miracle, but each time they ended in disappointment.

Richie almost laughed out loud a few times.

Until he left the West City Gate, he didn't see a limousine.

Those envoys finally gave up, wondering if it could be that the prince had just taken office, and he didn't know the rules. But this kind of thing is not easy to speak, so I can only admit it.

"Alas!"

They had just finished sighing, when suddenly another sigh rang out.

Everyone looked for prestige, and it was none other than Li Qi who sighed.

Richard was curious: "Why does the economist sigh for no reason?" ”

Zhao Huan smiled bitterly: "He-!" ”

Li Qi's face seemed to be a little flustered, and he hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's okay, it's just me-alas, there is no feast in the world, and I can't hide it, what Li hates most in his life is parting." ”

Richard was stunned for a moment, secretly surprised, could it be that he was reluctant to me? sighed: "Yes, in fact, I also want to talk to the economic envoy for a few more days, but unfortunately, I have a heavy responsibility and cannot delay it any longer." However, the economy has promised me that he will make my country. ”

I'm afraid this trip is unavoidable. Li Qi nodded and said, "Definitely, definitely." ”

Richard wanted to speak and stopped: "Actually, my trip originally brought a happy event. ”

This time it was Li Qi's turn to be stunned and said, "What kind of happy event?" ”

Richard said: "After my lord learned that the economic envoy had tried his best to promote the relationship between you and me, he was very moved, and he wanted to marry the second princess to the economic envoy to express my lord's gratitude to the economic envoy, and also to stabilize the relationship between you and me." ”

"Ahem, cough, prince, you are leaving, and you are so humorous!" Li Qi was choked with a huge cough, which is a happy event, and it is clearly bad news.

Richard said: "How dare I laugh at such a big thing." ”

Zhao Huan said: "This is really a good thing, but why have you never heard the prince mention it before?" "He is the crown prince, he is very familiar with marriage, if Li Qi can marry the princess of Xixia, it will have a lot of face, and it will also be extremely beneficial to the friendship between the Song and Xia kingdoms.

Richard smiled bitterly: "As soon as I arrived in Beijing, I heard that the economic envoy had recently won four beautiful wives, so I had to give up. ”

Li Qi hurriedly said: "It's good to stop." ”

"Huh?"

"Well, I meanβ€”regret, very regret." Li Qi rubbed his forehead and ended the curtain with a face, an absolute acting school.

Zhao Huan frowned and said: "Actually, Li Qi has already married four wives, and it doesn't hurt to have one more, I'm afraid that I will neglect the princess of your country." ”

When Richard heard this, there was a hint of hesitation on his face.

This Nima also hesitated? Of course veto, the princess is the same as the people's daughter, what a shame! Li Qi coughed lightly, and quickly changed the topic: "By the way, Lord Wang, what do you think of the kind of unparalleled world that is new to our Drunken Immortal Residence?" ”

As soon as Richard heard this, he immediately became excited, and said: "Needless to say, I like it tightly, if it weren't for the fact that this kind of unparalleled in the world can't survive for a long time, I have to transport more than a dozen cars back to China." ”

Richie sighed and fell silent again.

Zhao Huan ha: "It's just right, it's just right, this time the gift I prepared for you in Honglu Temple has this great relationship with the unparalleled in the world!" ”

Gift? The envoys of the Western Xia trembled when they heard this, and hurriedly raised their eyes to look around, but they did not see the limousine.

Richard sighed and said, "I would like to hear about it." ”

Li Qi said depressedly: "Your Highness, our Great Song Dynasty is also a big country in the Central Plains, will it be too cold to give this gift, or let's follow the rules, I can pay for it." ”

Richard was a little confused, but he vaguely guessed that this gift must not be simple, otherwise Richie, who had always been an iron rooster, would be so generous. smiled: "I, Richard, am not greedy for vanity, as long as the love is there, it doesn't matter how big or small this gift is." ”

Zhao Huan ha: "The prince is high-spirited and bright, Zhao Huan really admires it." As he spoke, he said to Li Qi again: "Li Qi, hurry up and take it out." ”

Li Qi sighed, took out a book from his arms very reluctantly, and said, "Lord Wang, this-this is my unparalleled secret recipe in the world." ”

Before he finished speaking, Richard's face was extremely shocked, and he almost fainted because of his brain, the world's unparalleled secret recipe, just these few words, even if you don't return the gift in the future, he is content.

Li Qi glanced at Richard, smiled in his heart, and after a moment, continued: "Part of it." ”

"Part of it?" Richard's eyes widened, a little overwhelmed.

Zhao Huan said with a smile: "In fact, the reason why the new world is unique can be special is because of a very rare flower, but after our observation, this kind of flower is more suitable for cultivation in your country, so my father and the emperor want to be a favor, popularize this flower in your country, and then buy it from your country." This may be a good effect on the trade between you and me, those carts are filled with seeds, and this book is some of Richie's experience in planting this flower, I hope it will help you. ”

Richard's mind spun quickly, and he thought to himself, although it is only a part, but since I know what kind of material is used, we can also try it, if it succeeds, it will be a steady stream of wealth, and if it is ten thousand steps back, even if it cannot be brewed, the people of our country have one more means of survival, which is really a great thing. Haha smiled and said, "Then how embarrassed am I." ”

"Haha, that's a pity, Your Highness, let's do things according to the rules."

Li Qi wanted to take back the book as he spoke, but who expected that Richard's hand was faster than him, and he grabbed the book directly, and said: "Economic envoy, how troublesome, since your country is sincere, it will be disrespectful." ”

"No trouble, no trouble."

Li Qi laughed on his lips, but his hands were dark.

But how could Richard let the fat fly to his mouth and hold on to it. The two began a unique tug-of-war.

Zhao Huan looked at it in his eyes, and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, it is really no better." Richie. ”

"Huh? Oh. ”

Li Qi suddenly let go of his hand, Richard was not prepared for a while, and almost sat on the ground.

A smile flashed in Li Qi's eyes, but he said depressedly: "Lord Wang, he said that when you grow this kind of cloth, how many of them will be sent to my Drunken Immortal Residence, as for the price, Lord Wang, don't be too ruthless, if we cooperate happily, I can even go directly to your Xixia to open a wine shop." ”

Richard nodded as if he had received a treasure: "Definitely, definitely." But I thought in my heart, when the time comes, it won't be something I can control.

Next, Li Qi dictated to Richard to explain the tips and some precautions for planting Kubu.

Richard hurriedly called for someone to write it down.

After Richie finished speaking, they let Richard say goodbye.

On the return trip, Zhao Huan said curiously: "Li Qi, since you have expected that the other party will be satisfied with a gift, then why do you still do that?" ”

Li Qi said with a smile: "Your Highness, as a trader, you can never tell others about your reserve price, no matter how much you make in a transaction, you have to say to the guests that you didn't make much, so that the guests are more comfortable to listen to, after all, no one wants to be slaughtered as a pig." ”

Zhao Huan nodded and smiled: "What you said seems to have some truth, but you drunken immortals are said to be in the gold fight, and everyone knows it, and you can't hide it if you want to!" ”

Li Qi waved his hand and said: "When the business reaches a certain level, there is no need to do so, not only do not need to, but also have to boast for yourself, because the bigger the business, then the guests you face will not be those who are calculating, but some wealthy businessmen, for this kind of guests, they value your strength and the prospects of cooperation between the two sides, the stronger your strength, the more confident they will be in you, the more they hope to cooperate with you, this is the way of business!" And our foreign trade in the Great Song Dynasty has just begun, and it is still in its infancy, so we must keep a low profile at this time, so that outsiders think that the less we earn, the more space we have to work, and the more beneficial it will be to us. ”

Zhao Huan nodded frequently when he heard this, and then he said, "I really don't know how you came up with these theories." ”

Li Qi shook his head and said: "Actually, this is nothing, any small merchant on Mahang Street understands the reason, it's just that His Highness has not done business, of course, he Richard is the same." ”
