Chapter Ninety-Nine: Seeking Heroes
Wu Qianping should be, Mingyi believes that he can deliver on it, but he still feels that he is not down-to-earth and must make the next preparation.
"If there is no news, I am afraid I must prepare the thousand taels of silver they want. I have very little cash in circulation in my store......" she said, looking at Wu Qianping's expression.
The corners of Wu Qianping's mouth raised slightly: "I know that you will not give up thirty percent of your profits." Say, I'll hear how much of your appetite is. ”
Ming Yi quickly calculated: "The rent, repair, decoration, labor and circulation of the shops in the West Market need about three hundred and fifty taels, which is the original investment, accounting for fifty percent of the profit. And the store has an extra 30% profit every year, which is worth at least 200 taels. These five hundred and fifty taels are considered to be my advance to Brother Qianping, and they do not have to be returned later. If Brother Qianping still has money to spare, he can lend it to me, and the more the better. Please be merciful to your subordinates. ”
Wu Qianping is not an idle person, so he immediately made a decision: "Three hundred and fifty taels is no problem, three percent of the profit is one hundred taels, and the rest is my reward for rushing to this matter." I may lend you another hundred and fifty taels for a year, and I will give you thirty taels of interest. No matter more, there is nothing I can do. ”
Ming Yi proposed it in anticipation that he would bargain, and the top priority at present was to ensure Hong Yi's safety and raise enough silver taels as soon as possible. With Wu Qianping's six hundred taels, plus the realization of Shi Niangzi's gold, silver and jewelry, it should be enough.
"Okay, I'll go to Brother Qianping's mansion tonight to get the silver taels." After Ming Yi finished speaking, he hurried to Xia Huanfeng for help, and turned around to leave.
Wu Qianping stretched out his hand to grab her, and when she stumbled, she almost fell into his arms, but quickly stabilized the lower plate, and separated herself from him with one hand.
Wu Qianping frowned slightly and stared at her: "Why did you call Brother Qianping back again?" ”
"It's more natural and appropriate." Ming Yi was a little embarrassed, he couldn't say it directly, he felt disgusting when he shouted, "What's more, Brother Qianping and I can talk about money and price very clearly." ”
"Haha, you understand me." Wu Qianping let go of her, but there was some complaint, "It's just that I feel that you are becoming more and more estranged from me." ”
Mingyi naturally knew what the reason was, once upon a time, she still had a trace of fantasy about Wu Qianping, but now, she has no thoughts.
"What's the matter, it's just that I'm flustered at the moment. What's more, mutual trust between you and me is the most important thing. "What Mingyi said is true.
Wu Qianping thought thoughtfully: "Indeed, beautiful women are easy to find, but confidants are hard to find. Go ahead, and I'll arrange to inform the gate guards at once. ”
Ming Yi came out of the room, and Liu Enchao hurriedly greeted him: "How is it?" ”
"As I walked, I said that Brother Enchao would send me to Rongyifang in the West City." She knew she couldn't stop, and if she stopped, she would think more and be more afraid.
All the way, he and Liu Enchao only talked about what Wu Qianping would do on his face, and did not mention Yinliang. She knew that Liu Enchao didn't have any wealth, and she didn't want to embarrass him.
Liu Enchao also wanted to make some efforts to send Mingyi to Rongyifang, to see that it was safer, so he first went to Fangzheng and Chengyang, who were familiar with each other, to inquire about the news.
The running hall of Rong Yifang was already very familiar with Ming Yi, and greeted him: "Did Ming Niangzi come to find our shopkeeper?" She was out of town last night, and I'm afraid she won't be able to come back today. ”
Ming Yixin fell directly to the ground: "Where can she say in the past?" ”
The person who ran the hall called a man who looked like a bookkeeper and saluted Mingyi: "The shopkeeper brought a lot of cash last night, saying that he was going to a neighboring county to find a silversmith." Unfortunately, we don't know where she went. ”
Mingyi has a feeling that the sky is going to kill me. If you weren't in a hurry to be a member's silver pendant, you wouldn't have no way to sue. Now I can only hope that Xia Huanfeng can come back sooner.
"Xia Niangzi is back, please tell me, Shi Niangzi is in trouble, come to the Pick-up Fang." Ming Yi told the bookkeeper, "Be sure to tell me as soon as possible." ”
The bookkeeper looked very nervous when he saw her, and agreed again and again.
Coming out of the Rong Yifang, Ming Yi felt the world spin for a while, forcing himself to take a deep breath and think about the next step.
Someone has to wait for news at the Gleaning Workshop, and the robbers will continue to drop notes at any time.
But she couldn't wait there. None of the parties who are currently appealing can give her a real sense of security, and she needs more strength. She can imagine that if she took such a large sum of money to pay the ransom, there would be only one result, the money was gone, and neither she nor Hong Yi could come back. As for the protection that Wu Qianping promised, at most, he would fight her back in the event of a conflict, because she was Wu Shaoyin's gold digger. Hong Yi's life or death, he won't care.
I've never felt so isolated and helpless as I did at this moment, and a thought was criing in my heart.
At the beginning of the time.
This man with absolute military superiority, if she is willing to take action, even if it is just to protect her to pay the ransom, she will have nothing to fear.
Now, she had to go.
At least Cheng Yan should be able to help, he has righteousness, and he also has Xing Qing's friendship.
At the beginning of the time...... She had a feeling that he wouldn't sit idly by. Whatever he asked, she would comply, even if it was never to bother him.
Having made up her mind, she went back to the bookkeeper, borrowed a carriage, and went out of the city.
Looking out of the car all the way, directing the coachman, with the scenery he saw in his memory, the journey was not smooth.
It wasn't until that peachy paradise reappeared, and she saw the tall horse standing in the courtyard from afar, that her heart relaxed.
Cheng Yan stood in front of the carriage with a happy face: "Sister Mingyi, why did you think of coming to see me?" ”
Ming Yi reluctantly smiled and jumped out of the carriage: "Your master is here, right?" ”
"Yes, he's painting in it." Cheng Yan scooped a spoonful of water and washed away the mud from his feet, "I'll take you in." ”
Mingyi grabbed Cheng Yan: "My friend has been kidnapped, and I need your master to take action, you must speak for me in a while." ”
Cheng Yan became more and more excited when he heard this, and he was afraid that he would be suffocated to death in this countryside: "There is such a thing! Don't worry, if Master doesn't go, I'll go with you to save people! ”
At the beginning of the goodbye, Mingyi's heart was still hit hard, and it was very stuffy.
But now is not the time to pursue that feeling.
He raised his eyes, put down the brush in his hand, and there was displeasure in his voice: "I said that if you don't have any more dealings, it won't benefit you and me." ”
Mingyi's tears came down, and he felt incredible, obviously he didn't plan to be so embarrassed: "Hong Yi is my best friend, she was mistaken for me and was robbed, you should know what happens to a woman who falls into the hands of bandits." I beg you, help me, help her. ”
Shi Chu was silent for a while: "I haven't seen you cry, except for ......"
Ming Yi saw that he seemed to be shaken, but he suddenly stopped talking, so he sent the note and Qingsi, and continued to beg: "As long as I can save her, I will definitely not trouble you again in the future." ”
He glanced at the note and sighed, "Okay, I'll pay you back." ”
