Chapter 45: The Opposite

Lian Xin pushed the door in, and behind him was Li Tao, the prince of Jin Zhang, and his guard Wan Yun, as well as the big treasurer Wei Quanbao.

The two saluted and sat down on both sides.

Li Tao looked at the girl sitting upright opposite, the last time I saw her, she was wearing a cloak, and the whole person was tightly wrapped, and the distance was far away, so I couldn't see it clearly.

Looking at her from such a close distance, she is really a beauty, with fair skin, beautiful Danfeng eyes, a straight nose, and delicate red lips.

Nothing is not beautiful.

Ruoxue looked at the seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy opposite, although he was also very handsome, but he was not as heroic as the last time he was on the horse, but he had a pampered and spoiled look.

Li Tao took a look at Ruohong, this is the third lady of the Mei family who was caught in nightmares, the little girl is eleven or twelve years old, and she still has a childish appearance on her little face, but there is a look in her eyes that is beyond her age.

This is a precocious girl, Li Tao thought.

After a while, the man served the tea, stood for a while, and when he saw that there was no command, he withdrew.

Li Tao watched the guy walk out. Only then did he turn his head to look at Ruoxue again, and said, "Miss Mei, can you call the shots here?" ”

"My family's money bank, I can still call the shots." She said.

Li Tao leaned into the chair and said: "I want to go overseas to buy goods, I need the principal of 500,000 taels of silver, you first lend me 500,000 silver to make the envoy, and when the time comes, my goods will come back, and I will return the silver to you." ”

"Are you going to go to the sea yourself?" Ruohong blurted out.

Li Tao glanced at her again, taking it as her child's curiosity, and said, "Of course not." ”

Ruohong let out a long "oh".

Ruoxue pondered and said: "The amount of silver you borrowed is too large, plus you are doing a maritime business, the risk is too high!" I can lend you up to 200,000 taels. ”

"Miss Mei is afraid that I won't be able to pay it back?" He said.

Ruoxue smiled slightly, "200,000 taels of the prince will naturally pay it back, but 500,000 taels may not be." She said, not to underestimate him.

Li Tao sat up straighter, "I'm going to borrow 500,000 taels?" He said.

"Then I'll just serve tea to the guests."

"What if I don't go?"

Li Tao leaned back into his chair again, with a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth, "If you don't borrow for a day, I'll stay here for a day, and if you don't borrow for ten days, I'll stay here for ten days,......" he said.

This is a meeting with Laipi.

Ruoxue paused for the teacup in his hand, raised his eyes and looked at Li Tao, if he was here alone, it wouldn't matter, but his guards were also staying here, and the guests didn't dare to come up, so Jiutong Fortune didn't have to open the door.

Ruoxue thought for a while about what he asked him to use as collateral before she compensated for 500,000 taels of silver, thinking that she didn't come out, "I don't know what the prince wants to use as collateral?" She said.

Li Tao was stunned for a moment, he had never mortgaged the items he borrowed silver, "What do you want as collateral?" He threw the question back on.

"You have to borrow 500,000 taels of silver, and for the sake of insurance, I want 10% of the silver, and I also want the prince to write a deed, which says that if you fail to pay off the money on time, the prince should pay off the debt and come to the Mei family to be a slave for five years.

What does the prince think? Ruoxue said.

"Bold ......"

Wan Yun took two steps forward, his hand was already on the hilt of the sword on his waist, this woman really ate the gall of a bear's heart and a leopard, and dared to let their master be a servant, it was really too deceitful!

Mi Pearl and Gong Yue also took a step forward at the same time, blocking in front of Ruoxue and Ruohong, but they did not have the aura of a martial arts practitioner, looking at them as two little girls who were loyal to the Lord.

Lian Xin and Peony glanced at each other, and felt that their reactions had slowed down, so in the eyes of others, they were not as loyal as the maid who had just arrived at Miss's side for a few days.

It's not that they are slow, it's that Gongyue is too fast.

Li Tao waved his hand to let Wan Yun retreat, ignoring the two guardian girls, with a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth, this was to force him to leave here empty-handed, he really wasn't afraid of anyone! If he leaves like this, let the fox friends in the capital know, where to put his face.

Dare to let him be a servant, this is bold enough, 500,000 taels want him to be a servant, I'm afraid she can't afford it!

"I can give you the silver, and I won't write the deed." Li Tao picked up the tea bowl and slowly scraped the foam on it twice, with an expression that you looked at.

"Then I won't lend you any money."

Ruoxue also picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly, her silver was not so easy to take, it was 500,000 taels of silver, not 10 taels or 8 taels.

If they can't get it back, it will be a big loss to their Mei family.

Li Tao tilted her head and looked at Ruoxue, she is considered wealthy, right? Or is there something to fear?

The atmosphere was at a stalemate.

Li Tao took a sip of the tea elegantly, and then removed the tea cup to gently blow the heat on the water.

Ruoxue held the cup in one hand, pinched the button on the lid with two shallot-like fingers in the other hand, slowly scraped the foam twice, and then lifted the lid of the cup and took a sip, not in a hurry to ask the other party to give an answer immediately.

Ruohong looked at persimmons, and then looked at Ruoxue, these two people are really a good match, one is beautiful and the other is handsome; One is the daughter of a rich family, and the other is a son of a wealthy family.

Hehe, this is a perfect match!

She just said to Ruoxue that she would ask the prince of Jinzhang to write a piece of paper, and if the silver is not paid by then, she will go to Mei's house to be her son-in-law, but Ruoxue changed it to let him come to Mei's house to be a slave.

My sister is much more ruthless than her!

Ruohong, a twelve-year-old girl, had just recovered from her illness, looking delicate and weak, she sat there looking at this and that, and no one cared about her, which also made her feel that it was good to be a child.

No matter how slowly you drink it, there is a time when the tea is finished.

In the end, Ruohong broke this stagnation, she pulled Ruoxue's arm and said, "Sister, I'm going home." ”

"Okay." Ruoxue said.

Ruoxue stood up and looked at Li Tao, "The prince is sitting here slowly, let's go first." She said, standing up and pulling Ruohong outside.

Li Tao watched them being surrounded by maids and walked towards the door, and the shopkeeper Wei also stood up, followed by him and sent them outside, his eyebrows raised high, and he stared at them with wide eyes, this was going to dry him here.

"Wait......"

Li Tao shouted to Ruoxue, who was about to walk out of the door, and he endured it for the 500,000 taels of silver, "I can write you a deed, but I won't give you the silver." ”

"Master! ……”

Ruoxue stopped and turned to look at him, "Okay, then ask the prince to write the deed." She said.

Li Tao waved his hand to stop Wan Yun from speaking, and said, "You sit down, and we will discuss the details." ”

When Wei Quanbao heard Ruoxue's conditions, he was not ready to speak, such conditions would not be agreed to by the prince of Jinzhang, what he didn't expect was that he actually agreed to write the contract.

This also shows from another aspect that the prince of Jin Zhang has the confidence to pay off the silver, and he is relieved.

Ruoxue said that she didn't care about the details, and the details could go to the shopkeeper Wei, and if Li Tao agreed to her conditions, she would write the contract directly, and she would wait here for him to write it before leaving.

Ruoxue asked someone to get pen and ink and put it on the table next to Li Tao.

Li Tao picked up the pen and put it down, "I haven't written a contract. As he spoke, he pushed the paper to Ruoxue's side, "You can write." ”

PS:

It's Monday, and there are four more days of snow on the shelves.

I'm looking forward to it.

I don't know what the subscription will look like after it is put on the shelf.

From the first chapter to now, it has been forty days before I know it.

That's fast!
