Chapter 135: I'll Put You in Prison for Questioning!
"A person like me, who is dressed shabby and has an extremely ugly appearance, may not attract the attention of others when he comes to the City Lord's Mansion once, but if he comes too many times, it may not be."
"Hmmm......"
Zhang Qing groaned, took out a wooden plaque engraved with the word 'Zhangfu' from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Qian Beibei, "You are so careful, with this card, you can see me smoothly, and it will not cause unnecessary trouble." ”
For example, the gatekeeper saw that she was shabby and did not let her enter the house, let alone help her pass the word.
Qian Beibei thanked him after taking it, and wanted to say goodbye to Zhang Weiya and leave.
It was not early, and she had to get home before evening.
But just as she was about to speak, she heard Zhang Weiya ask: "You just mentioned the word bill, but do you mean the price of growing grain?" ”
"Exactly."
"Let's not talk about it aside, what is the price of wheat grain like this?"
"This kind of wheat seed is about 20 yuan a catty."
“……”
Zhang Weiya immediately calculated silently.
One acre of land needs about ten catties of wheat to grow grain, and one hundred acres of land also needs 1,000 catties.
According to the price she said, 1,000 catties of wheat is only 20 taels of silver.
Forget it, he raised his voice and called: "Ashao." ”
The man outside the door entered.
It was the person who opened the door for Zhang Qing Qian Beibei before.
Without saying a word, he walked to the desk and asked, "What do you command?" ”
"Give her five hundred taels of silver."
"Yes."
Zhang Shaoying should be extremely fast, and he should also be extremely calm.
Zhang Qing and Qian Beibei were both shocked.
However, Zhang Qing's surprise was far less than that of Qian Beibei.
As a poor scum who has just crossed over and currently has no five taels of silver on her body, five hundred taels is an astronomical amount for her!
And five hundred taels of silver must weigh it!
Can she handle it?
In her surprise, she saw that Zhang Shao took five hundred taels of silver tickets and handed them to her: "This silver ticket can be exchanged for silver in any money house in Zhang'an City." ”
Qian Beibei stared at the silver ticket, and didn't reach out to take it for a long time: "I don't know why the city lord gave me so much?" ”
After asking, she moved her gaze to Zhang Weiya.
Zhang Weiya didn't answer immediately, and looked at her without a trace.
Ordinary people from poor families will be surprised and delighted when they see such a large denomination of silver tickets at first glance.
However, there was only surprise and doubt in her eyes, and there was no joy in the ......
There was a thick inquiry in his eyes, and Zhang Weiya opened his mouth to her: "No matter where you find those grain seeds, you need to spend money to buy them, and with these five hundred taels in your hand, you should be able to buy a larger amount of seed grain, right?" ”
"Well...... this"
Qian Beibei twisted his eyebrows, but still did not go to pick up the silver ticket.
After all, she just didn't want to take out too much at once, and it had nothing to do with the amount of money in her hand.
Seeing this, Zhang Weiya narrowed his eyes and said, "If you can use these five hundred taels of silver to help me get as many grain seeds as possible, when the autumn harvest this year is full, if there is a bumper harvest, I will give you another five hundred taels as a thank you gift, otherwise, ......."
After a pause, Zhang Weiya lowered his voice and continued threateningly: "If the harvest is mediocre during the autumn harvest, and the grain harvested is far less than what you showed me today, not only will I not give you the five hundred taels, but I will also put you in prison for questioning!" ”
Qian Beibei reached out and took the silver ticket, pursed his lips, and replied nonchalantly: "Okay, I'll try my best." ”
In response to her reaction, Zhang Weiya's eyes narrowed again, and his eyes were even more probing.
She didn't pay attention to his threat at all, because she was convinced that the yield and quality of those grains would not be bad after they were grown, right?
I don't know where her confidence comes from?
