Cheng Ge looked at Mrs. Zhou's face was red and white, and his heart was very happy.

"I don't know what happened to the princess and princess in Mingzhou this time? Before, she just wrote a letter saying that she wanted to come, and the old lady was very happy. Mrs. Zhou hurriedly changed the topic and said with a smile on her face, looking very dignified.

"I came here this time to discuss something important with my uncle, I don't know if my uncle is in the house today?" Qin Changqi did not answer her words directly, but asked where Lord Zhou was, "I told my uncle before, and I will visit him directly after I come to the mansion." ”

Mrs. Zhou smiled embarrassedly, quickly recovered her comfortable look, and then said with a dignified face, "The master is in the study, if the prince wants to go, I will ask Xin'er to take you there now." ”

Qin Changqi nodded, and went to the study with Cheng Ge, Zhou Xin didn't know what he was thinking along the way, and he always stumbled when he walked. Finally arrived at the study, Zhou Xin stopped at the door, and said loudly inside, "Father, the King of Chang'an and the Princess of Chang'an are here." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the door opened.

A man with a lofty face stood at the door, looked at the two people opposite, bowed respectfully and said, "If you miss the distance, please ask the princess and princess for forgiveness." ”

Qin Changqi's attitude towards Lord Zhou was completely different, and there was an intimacy in his words and deeds.

After the two of them exchanged pleasantries for a while, Qin Changqi said his thoughts directly. Speaking of borrowing money, Lord Zhou's face was obviously not good. Then he said with a painful face, "It's not that I didn't want to lend it to you before." It's just that the economic and financial resources of the Zhou Mansion are limited, and if I lend you money, it can only be said that it is a drop in the bucket. ”

It's not that Qin Changqi didn't think of this, but what can he do now? The Zhou Mansion can be said to be the richest family in Mingzhou, and it is impossible for other rich businessmen to cooperate with them.

"Since the Zhou government is willing to borrow money, it will be easy to do." Cheng Ge's eyes rolled and he thought about it, "I'll leave the rest to me, but we need Lord Zhou to cooperate with us." Ge thought of a method he had seen before, and decided to put it here to give it a try, "I hope that Lord Zhou will invite the rich businessmen of Mingzhou to the mansion as guests, and he will say that the King of Chang'an will invite everyone to a banquet, and I hope you will help." Lord Cheng Zhou's face was full of doubts, he knew this group of people best, this group of people was not good, how could he easily lend them money? But since Cheng Ge said so, they can only cooperate. He wanted to see what the little Princess Chang'an could do.

Mr. Zhou went to prepare an invitation and asked the wealthy businessmen in Mingzhou to come to his home as guests, and most of the wealthy businessmen agreed, saying that they would definitely be there. Qin Changqi asked for a long time and didn't ask what the method was, so he could only wait for tomorrow.

Lord Zhou had a good banquet, and the two of them were full of wine and food, and took advantage of the night breeze to take a walk in the garden, which was very comfortable.

"What the hell do you think? I look at my uncle's appearance, it should be very difficult to do, do you have any good methods? "I often go a little curious, if it's something that even QQ finds difficult, it must be difficult, and I haven't thought of any good way for a while. Brother Cheng smiled mysteriously, and then whispered, "Then how can I tell you?" Tell you that tomorrow will be no more mysterious. ”

Qin rubbed the top of his head helplessly for a long time, he actually kept it secret from himself, it seemed that it should be his proud work, so he didn't ask again, and waited to watch the show tomorrow.

On the second day, the rich businessmen came early, just as they usually had a dinner together, and did not take this Chang'an net to heart, as the saying goes, the strong dragon is difficult to suppress the head snake, even if they do nothing, what can they do to them?

"Lord Zhou is really interested. I heard that the king of Chang'an is coming to Mingzhou, aren't you afraid that he will see us eating and drinking here? A wealthy merchant laughed out loud, he was the largest salt merchant in Minnesotto.

"That's it! I heard that this King of Chang'an is ruthless, Lord Zhou should have a deep understanding. Another rich merchant laughed and said, he was the largest cloth merchant in Mingzhou, "If we are asked to donate money, we will not donate, they don't know how difficult it is for us to earn silver, and they say that they want it, how can there be such a good thing?" ”

Everyone actually tacitly knew that Qin Changqi came to Mingzhou from the capital, it must be for the affairs of Qingzhou, and they still wanted to take advantage of this to make a fortune in a national disaster, how could they donate money?

"That's what I'm saying," said a wealthy businessman, whose family had accumulated for many years to reach today's status, and that it had never relied on virtue and good deeds, "that silver is so hard to earn these days, and everyone has said okay, no one should donate money." ”

Several people agreed while chatting that they must not donate money to Qin Changqi and Brother Cheng. That's just these words. Cheng Ge and Qin Changqi had already heard it behind the screen, and Qin Changqi snorted coldly, knowing that this group of people was not so easy to deal with.

Seeing that things were ripe, Cheng Ge and Qin Changqi walked out, and the rich businessmen stood up one after another, saluted the two, and sat down after a while of greetings.

"I invite you here today, and I think you know why." Cheng Ge looked at the group of people with a hypocritical smile on their faces, and said, "This concubine and the prince have come all the way here for the people of Qingzhou. Qingzhou and Mingzhou are only separated by a mountain, presumably you adults should also have relatives in Qingzhou, Qingzhou's difficulties, Mingzhou should also pay. ”

The wealthy businessmen present all hummed and said, "What the princess said is true. However, no one mentioned donating money, and Cheng Ge also knew it, so he continued, "I believe that you already know it in your hearts, and we also know your family background, and I believe that everyone here is willing to cooperate." ”

"Eh, it's not that this money can't be donated, but now most of our money is in operation, and there isn't much money that can be taken out." The cloth merchant said with a very sad look, Cheng Ge had already investigated clearly, this cloth merchant was the richest, and most of the cities in the south basically had his cloth shops.

"Boss Qiu is too modest." Cheng Ge didn't believe his words at all, but she didn't break it either, "It's just that if this matter is not done well, the emperor will blame the prince, I hope you can understand." ”

The rich merchants didn't know what kind of medicine she was selling in her gourd, so they could only echo it. Seeing that they all agreed, the corners of Cheng Ge's mouth were slightly hooked, and he said softly, "In this case, if this princess can't get the money today, she can't let you leave, I believe everyone can understand." ”

The wealthy businessmen present all sneered in their hearts, is this just a trick? What's there to worry about? They want to see how long she can last.

It's just that they didn't expect that this stay would be one night, and as long as they were sleepy, Chengge would give them chicken blood......
