Chapter 280: I'm going to be an official
After returning from the fourth trip to the toilet, he lay down on the bed: "Linghua, find Langzhong." ”
Stomach upset is a small problem, but Chen Shimei's body bones are not strong, and he has just come out of the cell, and he is even weaker, such a small problem is enough for him to no longer have any strength to vent his savings. After three consecutive trips to the toilet, my steps have begun to drift, and I have no strength in my legs when I walk.
Even so, he still can't lie down, because the stage of bail pending trial is very important, and he has to make good use of every second, which is directly related to his fate.
The affairs of the villa were taken care of by Chen Shizhong, and Chen Yuan was still more at ease. What he can't let go of now is the maritime trade he is about to start.
I have never been involved in this industry myself, and Zhang Kuangzheng's previous running boats were all risk-based, is it really okay to hand over the business to him? Chen Yuan was a little worried. Therefore, he must negotiate with Wang Lun, so that Wang Lun's cargo bank and his own fleet can form a complementary situation.
Chen Yuan knew that this matter was very troublesome, and now that the goods store was in Wang Lun's hands, he didn't want to do it anymore. A few days ago, he was counting on himself to take over, but now that something like this has happened, it is impossible to take over the goods store by himself in the short term, is Wang Lun really willing to hold on for a few more months?
When Chen Yuan told Wang Lun about this idea, he really didn't say anything about Wang Lun. Affection is affection, business is business. It is impossible for Wang Lun to invest any more money in this bottomless pit that is already unsatisfactory to him for the sake of affection with Chen Yuan.
"Brother Chen, I really plan to close the cargo store. Now that the goods store is closed, it means that I will lose a little bit of the money you gave me when I came back from Liao, and if I continue to hold on, even the old book will be smashed into it. I think very clearly, this time Brother Chen comes out, if you are willing to take over now, I will transfer it to you at a low price. If you can't take it, I'll shut it down. Wang Lun said a little disappointed, after all, he also put a lot of effort into this business, if it wasn't really a last resort, he didn't want to end like this.
Chen Yuan was a little troubled. If the villa continues to run for half a month, he has enough strength to take over the goods store so far. But in the past half a month, the villa not only does not make money, but also invests money in it.
The girls didn't leave, and those Jurchens were also waiting for Chen Yuan to come out, waiting for news of their relatives. It's a good thing that these people didn't leave, but since they stayed, Crescent Moon Villa had to take care of their food and drink.
Now although Renzong has let Chen Yuan come back, it has not yet been said when the villa will reopen, and there is still a sign on the gate that it is temporarily closed. It is still unknown when he will be able to start making money again, and Chen Yuan does not even dare to say whether he can open for business again.
At this time, even if Wang Lun sold at a low price, Chen Yuan would not have the confidence to take over.
But if Wang Lun really closes the goods store, and the things inside are still sold in warehouses and fields, and when he wants to use it, he will buy land, build a warehouse, and hire a man, then the price will be even greater.
Both men were silent. Wang Lun looked at Chen Yuan from time to time, and Chen Yuan also looked at Wang Lun from time to time, and finally Chen Yuan said: "Brother Wang, you don't have anything to say at this price, but if your brother takes over now, you have to take a big risk." ”
Wang Lun nodded: "I know this." I've also looked for others, and no one dares to do it. I'm going to lose this deal, and now I'm just thinking about losing less. I'm going to go to Tibet for two business trips, and I think I should be able to make money back, but this goods company must be thrown off quickly. ”
Chen Yuanyi gritted his teeth: "Do you see if this is good, I will give you half of the money first, and I will give you the remaining half in two installments, and I will give you the second one after a month, and settle it after half a year." Brother, this situation is now clear to Brother Wang, after I take over the goods store, I will have to carry out a little transformation, these all cost money, if it is paid in a lump sum, it is really unbearable. ”
Wang Lun finally nodded: "Okay, it's much better than me closing the cheap sale." That's it, I hope Brother Chen will hurry up, if we can, how about we negotiate things the day after tomorrow? ”
The two sides agreed in this way, and the day after tomorrow, Chen Yuan took someone to Wang Lun's goods store, paid the money with one hand, signed the contract with the other, and after signing the contract, the goods bank was his own. If it is placed in normal times, the price offered by Wang Lun is enough to surprise Chen Yuan, this is a very cost-effective deal. But now it's different, Wang Lun's cession is a little painful, whether it is a help or a burden for Chen Yuan depends on the results of Renzong's treatment of him.
Chen Yuan didn't eat anything from noon to night, and didn't even drink a sip of water, in order to make sure that there was no pressure to release in his stomach except for a few rings. Because he also had to go to see Lu Yijian and ask what kind of attitude Renzong had towards him! If you go to the toilet by yourself when you ask to see Lao Lu, it will not be good.
After sending Wang Lun away, he waited for a while to make sure that his stomach was really empty, so he asked Han Qi to drive the carriage to Xiangguo's mansion.
Lu Yijian seemed to know that Chen Yuan would come, and when Chen Yuan asked to see him, Lu Fu smiled and said, "Xiangguo has been waiting for you, come in." ”
Lu Fu led Chen Yuan all the way to Lu Yijian, at this time Lu Yijian was writing calligraphy, Chen Yuan knew that this old man didn't like others to disturb him when he was writing, so he obediently stood aside and waited.
Lu Yijian glanced up at him, smiled, and motioned for him to sit down, and continued to wave until he finished writing, and then put down the brush: "What's wrong with Shimei?" It doesn't seem to be in good spirits. ”
Chen Yuan showed a wry smile: "Back to Xiangguo, there is a lot of oil and water at noon, and my stomach is very troublesome." ”
Lu Yijian laughed: "This is a common problem for people who come out of prison!" It's just a small problem, and it will be fine tomorrow, but if you come to see me now, can your body eat it? ”
Chen Yuan didn't hide it: "Don't hide it from Xiangguo, what I want to do most now is to find a bed to sleep in, don't care about anything, and don't say anything." ”
Lu Yijian saw that his figure was a little shaky when he was standing, and immediately stepped forward and patted Chen Yuan on the shoulder: "Sit down, I know that you must be anxious about what the emperor will arrange for you, right?" ”
Chen Yuan nodded: "Yes, the villain is too impulsive this time, Xiangguo, I really don't know what happened that night, and I actually caused such a thing." I also treated Xiangguo vigorously, and I came to thank Xiangguo today. ”
Lu Yijian had a smile on his face, reflexively walked back to the bookcase, and picked up the words he had written just now: "Shimei, look, this is your song "Water Tune Song Head", do you see anything from this pair of words?" ”
Chen Yuan's eyes were a little dazzled now, and he couldn't concentrate his spirit, and he looked at it for a while before he understood: "What Xiangguo imitates seems to be the font of today's saint." ”
Renzong's character Chen Yuan specially observed, and it was still when he named the villa. However, Renzong has a good hand, even if he has only observed it once, but Chen Yuan remembers it very clearly.
Lu Yijian smiled when he heard it: "It's the emperor's font, your poem, the emperor has written it several times." Shimei knows if you don't know it, if it weren't for your good writing and it entered the emperor's ears, the emperor wouldn't pay attention to you at all, and even if the old man had the heart to help you, he wouldn't be able to start. ”
Rao is Chen Yuan is extremely thick-skinned, and he still feels a little embarrassed, I'm sorry Comrade Xiao Su. Fortunately, he doesn't have much strength now, so he didn't blush: "Xiangguo won the award, when I wrote this poem, I just wanted to attract the attention of others." The villain expected it to be a sensation, but the emperor did not notice it. ”
Lu Yijian nodded: "Yes, the writing is really good." And the emperor saw you twice, and your performance also satisfied him. You can rest assured. ”
Chen Yuan scolded in his heart, this is equivalent to not saying it, he also knows that the emperor is satisfied with himself, but it is not him Lu Yijian who is the one who suffers the lawsuit, who can put down his heart when this matter is put down?
"Does Sangkook know the details? Please also reveal something, the villain is really worried in his heart. ”
Lu Yijian was a little hesitant, he didn't want to tell Chen Yuan, because he knew that Chen Yuan was unwilling to be an official. If he said it now, would this kid think of any other way to shirk it? After waiting for a while, Lu Yijian sighed: "Shimei, since you can't rest assured, then I'll tell you." It's just that before I say anything, I want to know what you have in mind with those Jurchen servants of yours? They're all in prison now, and if you don't save them, they'll have to pay for the lives of those party members. ”
Chen Yuan did answer this question very simply: "If I had the opportunity, I would definitely rescue them, but I can't protect myself now, and I have the heart to save them, but I don't know how to start." ”
Lu Yijian looked at Chen Yuan with a strange smile on his face: "There are two ways, the first is that you go and carry all the charges, so that they can live." ”
Chen Yuan waved his hand busily: "Xiangguo said the second one, you know what kind of person I am, such a thing looks like a hero, but I won't do it." ”
Lu Yijian smiled even more happily: "Then you only have one way left." The emperor is ready to let you negotiate with Yelu Gollum and Zhang Yuan, as long as you can suppress Zhang Yuan at the negotiation table and let him loosen his mouth and stop pursuing it, I think the emperor will also push the boat. After all, among the people of Bianjing, many people sympathize with you. ”
Chen Yuan was shocked: "The emperor asked me to negotiate?" How can it be!? ”
He couldn't believe Lu Yijian's words at all, but looking at Lu Yijian's expression, it didn't seem like he was lying. Lu Yijian didn't speak, didn't look at Chen Yuan, lowered his head and picked up the teacup and took a few sips slowly.
Chen Yuan's mood was very agitated, and his first reaction was that this thing was impossible! But Lu Yijian's attitude was tantamount to telling him that this was true. His second reaction was to do nothing! He doesn't want to be an official, he really doesn't want to be an official! But in the blink of an opinion, I thought that if I didn't do it, not only would I not be able to save Tie Anli, Su Tu and others, but even he Chen Yuan himself, as Renzong said, the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped!
Besides, Renzong is the emperor, if he speaks and refuses him again, he will be very unhappy! So after thinking about it for a long time, Chen Yuan finally said: "Xiangguo, when does the emperor plan to let me go?" ”
Lu Yijian's heart was very happy, but there was still a slight smile on his face: "When Yelu Nie Gulu does not accept Song Qi's threat, the emperor will convene a tripartite negotiation as you said, and when the time comes, you will represent the Great Song Dynasty." ”
Chen Yuan understood, Song Renzong must have been moved by what he said, and he was just waiting to see if Yelu Niang was as he said.
Chen Yuan was very confident in this, he took a deep breath, it seemed that he was really going to be an official. There are some things that you can't do if you don't want to do them, for the sake of Tie Anli and Su Tu and others, and for yourself, the best choice is to promise Renzong.
