Chapter 199: Asking
Zhang Bao'er anxiously beckoned the men to come forward and collect the silver scattered on the street, and hurried into the gate of the money bank with the mule gang. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
It was getting dark, and there were still a lot of people watching the excitement in the courtyard and on the street. Zhang Baoer said to the unloading guys: "Everyone must be slow when unloading, don't break the box again." ā
The news that more than a hundred loads of silver had been transported from the Heavenly High Earth Houqian Village flew into the ears of Liu Yang, Lu Yu and others as if they had grown wings, and their faces suddenly became gloomy.
Lu Yu sighed and said, "Seeing that they are about to succeed, but they have silver again, I'm afraid we won't be able to squeeze them." ā
"Don't say frustrating words first, no matter how much money he has, can he still have more than Taifeng Qianzhuang?" Liu Yang said with a cold face: "It's still according to the original plan, I want to see how long he can carry it!" ā
ā¦ā¦
After the song was finished, Shangguan Wan'er sat there quietly, letting her thoughts flutter freely.
As a woman, it is quite difficult to reach Shangguan Wan'er's current achievements and status.
Men are always ambivalent about women, they like smart and beautiful women, but they are afraid that women are too smart. In the eyes of men, a slender woman with bright eyes and bright teeth has always been a virtue, and once a woman is too smart, she will be regarded by men as an ambitious demon.
Because of this, Shangguan Wan'er's talent and ability are despised by many men, a little woman, who does not abide by the three obedience and four virtues, but wants to enter the temple, such courage is what men are afraid of.
Shangguan Wan'er's power comes from Zhongzong Li Xian, if there is no Li Xian, she can only be an ordinary concubine.
In Li Xian's life, he has never taken the initiative to strive for power, his status and power are innate, innate, and unstoppable. As the person with the most power in the world, Li Xian didn't understand the essence of power at all, and what was even more terrifying was that he didn't want to understand, so that the power in his hands was finally divided up by his wife, sister, and close ministers, which also became the source of trouble.
Li Xianneng gave Shangguan Wan'er power, but he couldn't protect her, and Shangguan Wan'er could only rely on her political wisdom to protect herself.
Now the situation in the Tang Dynasty is more complicated than that of Empress Wu, the power of Empress Wei is more rampant, and its ambitions have become clearer and clearer, and public opinion in the court is in an uproar.
Princess An Le also actively participated in the matter, and coupled with Zong Chuke, several people were embarrassed, which made everyone in the court look sideways. Princess An Le is the same as her mother, she is a power maniac and careerist, but she is also clever and rude, and she has no talent, Shangguan Wan'er knows very well in her heart that their ruin is destined, it is just a matter of time.
Shangguan Wan'er relied on her ingenuity to maneuver between Wei, Li and other major political forces, and used it to grasp the power of the country, but after all, she was only a small Zhaorong, without her own power, and the turmoil in the court made her feel tired and haggard.
Shangguan Wan'er's personal maid Hong'er quietly walked in and whispered to Shangguan Wan'er: "Zhaorong Niangniang, Zhang Bao'er asks to see!" ā
Hong'er's voice brought Shangguan Wan'er back from her thoughts to reality.
"Zhang Bao'er?" Shangguan Wan'er was stunned, and immediately understood Zhang Bao'er's intention.
The dispute between Tiandi Houqian Zhuang and Taifeng Qianzhuang spread all over the streets and alleys in Chang'an, and Shangguan Wan'er naturally heard about it. Zhang Baoer asked to see him at this time, and he must have come to ask for help from herself.
Hong'er saw Shangguan Wan'er's tired face, and couldn't help but say, "Why don't I go back to him and let him come back another day?" ā
"Wait!" Shangguan Wan'er stopped Hong'er.
After thinking about it, Shangguan Wan'er sighed and said, "He is also a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, and he dares to touch the tiger's buttocks." A small executioner, arguing with the first princess of the dynasty, this courage alone is worth our help to him. Hong'er, go and invite him in! ā
When Hong'er led Zhang Bao'er in, Shangguan Wan'er was already waiting for him, and her face had returned to her former vigor.
"I've seen Zhaorong Niangniang!" Zhang Bao'er saluted Shangguan Wan'er.
"You're welcome, just tell me, what do you need me to do?"
In Zhang Bao'er's impression, Shangguan Wan'er has always had to make many turns when she speaks, and she has to think carefully to guess her thoughts, and it is the first time that she is as direct as today.
Since Shangguan Wan'er went straight to the point, Zhang Bao'er also saved her politeness: "I must have heard about the matter of Qianzhuang, don't hide it from Niangniang, I can't hold on now, so I'm here to ask Niangniang for advice." ā
"You didn't borrow money from me?" Shangguan Wan'er was a little stunned.
Zhang Bao'er shook her head: "I've thought about it, with the strength of Taifeng Qianzhuang, even if I borrow more money, it will only last a few more days." Zhaorong Niangniang once said to me that the power of wisdom is infinite, and everything in the world can be solved with strategy, I think there should be a solution to this matter, and I specially asked Niangniang for advice! ā
Shangguan Wan'er listened and stared at Zhang Bao'er for a long time.
Seeing that Shangguan Wan'er stopped talking, Zhang Bao'er didn't know what she was thinking, and asked a little uneasily: "Niangniang, did I say something wrong?" ā
Shangguan Wan'er smiled: "I'm very happy that you can think of using strategy to solve this matter, which shows that you are no longer the high-spirited Zhang Bao'er you used to be." ā
"Thank you for the compliment!" Zhang Bao'er said nervously: "It's just that I'm too stupid to think of a suitable way!" ā
Shangguan Wan'er said kindly: "Strategy is a profound knowledge, it can't be mastered in a day or two, and it's normal that you can't think of a way to deal with it now." ā
Speaking of this, Shangguan Wan'er's voice changed and said: "Isn't it a ploy that you can use a trick to confuse the people of Taifeng Qianzhuang and make them think that you have really raised a lot of silver for Qianzhuang?" ā
Zhang Bao'er's eyes widened: "Zhaorong Niangniang, how do you know that the silver I shipped is fake?" ā
Shangguan Wan'er smiled indifferently and said: "There are so many money houses in Chang'an, if you really need cash, you can use the silver ticket to go to other money banks to withdraw it, how can you go to the near and far to bet the silver from the outside to your own bank?" ā
Zhang Baoer honestly admitted: "Zhaorong Niangniang is right, if I had a silver ticket, I wouldn't have to toss around so blindly!" ā
Shangguan Wan'er continued: "Even if you transport silver from other places to Chang'an, you should also use the local dart bureau, how can you take Chang'an's dart master to escort the dart?" Isn't this explicitly for others to see? ā
Zhang Bao'er smiled bitterly: "What Zhaorong Niangniang said is that I owe it to consideration!" ā
"The most suspicious thing is that when you arrive at the door of the money bank, so coincidentally the silver falls out? You must know that there are strict rules for dart betting, and such accidents generally do not occur. The dart box of the dart board is very strong, even if the dart box is dropped, there will be no silver scattered, but the silver in the dart box is scattered, isn't this strange? (To be continued.) )
