Chapter 175: Trick Shop
"Even so, the old minister can't live up to the kindness of the mother, the silver will find a way to get it together, and it will definitely be handed over to you within three days."
Now there is no other choice at all, knowing that this negotiation is a complete failure, Father Su is too lazy to continue pretending with the other party, and gritted his teeth and said.
"There's no need to be in such a hurry." Originally, he had already said nothing, but after the other party promised, Tao Mingxi suddenly changed his style and said,
"Didn't you say that you could only come up with 30 million taels of gold recently? I'm afraid it's not easy to get together the remaining 20 million taels, right? ”
"Hmm......" Seeing that hope had reappeared, Father Su looked at the other party and nodded hesitantly.
"You can also choose to use those shops of the Su family to pay off the debt, this palace sent someone to check, there are more than 100 teahouses, more than 70 pharmacies, and 10,000 acres of land under your hands......
Tao Mingxi didn't focus on the silver at the beginning, after all, compared to these real estates, it was a better choice to get a pharmacy that could continue to make profits!
So she specially sent someone to investigate, only to find out that the Su family had been in business for generations in the past, and later it was Su's father's generation that gained fame and became an important minister in the court in one fell swoop.
Xing Yizhe would marry the daughter of a little third-grade official as a concubine, and most of the reason was that their family was rich.
After all, to envelop the people outside and create a good reputation for oneself, it costs money everywhere, and the silver that Xing Yizhe can take out is simply not enough, so he can only rely on the help of external forces!
This check her coke! This time I really picked up the treasure.
"The palace doesn't ask for much, but after all, it is to replace 20 million taels of gold, if these industries are not enough, I'm afraid the prince will not agree, so ......" Tao Mingxi said bitterly on his face, and continued to say: "You have to give up at least thirty of these pharmacies, right?" There are 50 teahouses, and there are ...... fields."
Tao Mingxi said in detail one by one, she has investigated how many shops the Su family has run, and even some of the more unpopular ones she wants one or two, and in terms of fields, she will naturally not let herself suffer!
After saying it in one breath, Father Su's face was already dark, and what she just said was not as simple as 50 million taels of gold for a year!
Father Su suddenly regretted that he had come here, if he had known that this was the case, he might as well obediently hand over the 50 million taels of silver!
"Niangniang, those shops are the basic of the Su family, and if they are transferred, I'm afraid it will be different, so forget it...... As for the problem of silver, Lao Chen will find a way to solve it as soon as possible. ”
Father Su changed his words directly without thinking about it, and his tone couldn't be said to be tactful, anyway, that's what it meant.
"How's that going to work? Lord Su, I'm afraid you're worried enough about the affairs of the court on weekdays, right? It's too difficult to make up money for a while, and this palace really can't bear to see you like this. ”
Tao Mingxi frowned and said, looking very concerned about the other party, and the tone of his voice was sincere, if it weren't for her purpose, Father Su would probably be convinced of this, and he was moved!
"It's okay......" Father Su's face stiffened, and he just wanted to open his mouth to refute, but Tao Mingxi didn't plan to give him this opportunity at all.
Even if the other party paid the money honestly from the beginning, she didn't plan to let him go so easily, but the other party ran up by herself, how could she let go of this opportunity?
"No! It is very difficult to get together 20 million taels of gold in a short period of time, how can this palace bear to embarrass you? Tao Mingxi sighed, and then spoke as if assured, with a hint of certainty in his tone, "Don't worry, after handing over those shops to the palace, the palace will definitely run it for you!" ”
Father Su: "......"
Tao Mingxi's words are really angry, what is the use of running a good business for her? In the end, the money will not go into his pocket, it will only make him more angry!
"Okay," before he could continue to speak, Tao Mingxi directly made a final decision: "It's decided!" After you go back and tidy up, take the contracts of those shops and fields to the palace, and the palace will go and discuss it with the prince. ”
Saying that, she deliberately accentuated the 4 words "discuss well", which made the other party even more annoyed!
“…… Be. Now, Father Su really couldn't say a word to refute, so he had to nod slowly, and the whole person was in a sluggish state.
"It's not too early now, you can go back and deal with it quickly, and hand over the silver to the palace as soon as possible, so that the prince can release him."
Tao Mingxi didn't stop acting until the last moment, with a faint smile on his face from beginning to end, it looked good at first, but now, Father Su only felt that the more he watched, the more blocked he became!
……
It wasn't until Father Su slowly walked out of the main hall and disappeared from the sight of the two that Zhu'er couldn't help laughing out loud anymore, and the gentle image of a little rabbit on weekdays was completely gone, as if she had changed someone.
"What are you doing?" Tao Mingxi was startled by the other party's sudden laughter, turned his head, and asked with a frightened face.
"The slave just thinks that Master Su's reaction is too funny!" Zhu'er eased up for a long time before she withdrew her almost unstoppable smile and replied, "Niangniang, you are too similar!" That well-intentioned, very embarrassed look, Zhu'er almost believed it when she looked at it, and almost cried to thank you! ”
Tao Mingxi: "......"
Looking at each other helplessly, Tao Mingxi didn't say a word for a while.
"What, what's wrong?" After Zhu'er laughed, she realized that something was wrong with the other party's face, and she suddenly felt a little nervous, she didn't dare to joke with her mother in the past, but today she really couldn't help laughing!
But looking at Tao Mingxi's helpless expression, she shouldn't be angry with herself......
The more she thought about it, the more panicked she became, and the expression on Zhu'er's face gradually became at a loss, and the smiling appearance of Fang Cai disappeared completely.
"Okay, you little girl!" Tao Mingxi pretended to be serious and didn't pretend to be serious for a long time before he couldn't hold back, and looked at the other party helplessly and said, "This kid has learned to hurt people, right?" You don't dare to make jokes casually, don't you want to live? ”
"I ......" Zhu'er reacted at this time, the other party was not angry, and the nervous feeling in her heart suddenly disappeared.
