Chapter 166: Xi Shi
The corners of Zhiwan's mouth arced, and he nodded and chuckled, "The Wu family is really kind-hearted, even the emperor and the queen mother praise the Wu family, otherwise this batch of golden silk nanmu is my grandfather's family, how can I let the Su family eat it, since Master Wu took the initiative to give up half of it, then the other half will be given to the Su family, and the money in exchange will buy food from the Wu family." ”
Zhiwan said that the cloud was light and the wind was light, but Su Xiangxing was holding a tea cup, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, if he hadn't personally experienced the robbery of Jinsi Nanmu, he might have really believed what Zhiwan said, Jinsi Nanmu was donated by the Queen Mother to the people of Xingzhou on her own initiative, and the exchange of food with the Wu family was also instructed by the emperor and the Queen Mother, otherwise where did they get the guts?
The head of the Wu family also muttered in his heart, the contradiction between the king of Yuejun and the queen mother, they have also heard of it, the king of Yuejun robbed is not the first time, the emperor connived and spoiled him, the entire Dayue Dynasty does not know, he also thought about it, if this batch of golden silk nanmu is really donated by the queen mother, his Wu family exchange of food, is a good thing to accumulate virtue and do good, if this batch of golden silk nanmu is not in the right way, it is the king of Yuejun who robbed it, the Wu family changed the golden silk nanmu, which is equivalent to helping the king of Yuejun sell the stolen goods, in principle, it should be regarded as an accomplice, but in fact, the Wu family is innocent, King Yuejun waved the banner of the queen mother and the emperor, and what he said could be regarded as forcing the Wu family to buy it, the Wu family was weak, and had to bow his head in front of the king of Yuejun.
Now buy half of the golden silk nanmu, and give the remaining half to the Su family, the Su family and the Wu family are the same seven families, so they naturally have that financial resources, and the silver money is used to buy food, isn't he even more at a loss?
After taking a sip of tea, the head of the Wu family put down the teacup before he spoke, "I naturally believe what the princess said, and I believe that the Su family has the ability to eat the golden silk nanmu, but the Wu family does not have so much food in their hands for the time being, and the price of food has risen everywhere recently, if I exchange it with the golden silk nanmu at the market price, the loss of the Wu family is too great." ”
Su Xiangxing looked at the head of the Wu family. said with a smile, "Brother Wu also said this, it is inevitable that he is too bullying to the princess of the county who does not understand the shopping mall, and the profit in the grain can be compared to the golden silk nanmu?" ”
The head of the Wu family is the head of the first family. How could Su Xiangxing be frightened by two words, and said with a smile at the moment, "Brother Su, the younger brother is a real person, he never bullies anyone, let alone bullying the princess of the county, the profit of the golden silk nanmu is big, but the price is not cheap, how much golden silk nanmu can be used to build a palace, Brother Su also knows." I don't ask for much, the price of golden silk nanmu has dropped by one percent, and the price of grain has risen by one percent. ”
Su Xiangxing narrowed his eyes, this fox also said that he was sincere. This is his time, down one percent, up one percent, all the beneficiaries are him, just about to speak, when he heard two words, "Send off." ”
Su Xiangxing was stunned. The head of the Wu family was even more dumbfounded, he had grown so big, he had not been bombarded with such concise words, his face couldn't hold it for a while, it was red, and Poria came to see off the guests. "The head of the Wu family looks down on my princess too much, it's not that the golden silk nanmu can't be sold, the Wu family doesn't want it, the Su family wants it themselves, please."
The head of the Wu family clenched his fists. If this is blown out, where is there still face, so he looked at Su Xiangxing, how could he have a three-point friendship, Su Xiangxing persuaded Zhi Wandao, "If you have something to say, doing business is like this, if you can't talk about it, just discuss it again, try to satisfy both parties." ”
Zhiwan stood up and looked at Su Xiangxing's face with a gentle smile, "Uncle also knows, I am such a character, I sincerely do business, but people treat me as a fool, is there still a need to talk about this business, if it weren't for my trip to Yongzhou to meet my grandfather and grandmother, I can sell this batch of golden silk nanmu at a sky-high price, not to mention the equivalent exchange of grain, it can be two or three times, the Wu family is not sincere, what the emperor and the queen mother have heard, how can the people of Dayue judge the Wu family's behavior of almost beating and robbing houses, Master Wu also weighed in his heart. ”
Can you not weigh it? Originally, hoarding Juqi committed a taboo in the imperial court, and when discussing business with the imperial court, he still bid like this, and did not give face, which was undoubtedly looking for death, and the head of the Wu family wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, and was in a dilemma.
Su Xiangxing took the opportunity to pull the head of the Wu family to sit down, "Brother Wu, you and I are also world friends, if this business is not designated by the imperial court, how can I be willing to give you it, you also give a truthful word, if you want to buy it, if you don't want it, forget it." ”
This is a step, the princess of the county gave it to her uncle, the head of the Wu family thought for two seconds, and then said, "Brother Su, you and I are both businessmen, let's just open the words and say, the drought of the Dayue Dynasty this year is certain, and the price of grain will rise, there is no doubt about this, as for how much it will rise, no one knows, the profit of the golden silk nanmu is high, but there are not many people who can afford it. ”
What the head of the Wu family said was reasonable, Su Xiangxing didn't have anything to refute for a while, so he looked at Zhiwan, who was sipping tea leisurely, with an indifferent expression, giving people a sense of calmness and open-mindedness that knew everything.
Inside, it's quiet and quiet.
The heart of the head of the Wu family is drumming, he rarely deals with women, especially when talking about business, it is even rarer, and it actually gives him a kind of pressure that is greater than many men, and even the other six family heads, and even his back is a little cold, and he is wondering in his heart, whether his bid is too high, and he hears a clear voice, like a heavenly sound, "The price of golden silk nanmu will not fall, and I will allow you to increase the price of grain by two percent, but I have an attached condition, the Wu family will be responsible for transporting this batch of food security to Xingzhou." ”
The head of the Wu family calculated in his heart, the conditions that the princess of the county said were much lower than what he said, how could the golden silk nanmu be worth the grain onecheng, and Yizhou was a little far away from Xingzhou, and the loss of grain transported all the way had to be compensated by the Wu family, in case someone robbed along the way, the Wu family was even more empty of bamboo baskets, a good princess of the county, thoughtful, to retreat as advance, forcing him to give in!
Su Xiangxing didn't understand a little, wasn't the group of water bandits in Jiushan Lake recruited, or they made a special trip to Xingzhou to transport grain, why did they bother the Wu family to transport it?
When the head of the Wu family disagreed, Su Xiangxing understood, the corners of his mouth arced, his niece was really unusual, no wonder the king of Yue County who could be subdued, and the king of Yue County was also relieved to hand over such a major matter to her.
After you come and go, the business is negotiated, the matter of transporting grain does not need the Wu family, the price of golden silk nanmu is one percent lower than that on the market, and the price of grain is also one percent lower, in general, it is the Wu family who takes advantage of it, but in view of the fact that the origin of this batch of golden silk nanmu is very improper, it is a business without capital, and it is not a loss.
Su Xiangxing drew up the contract. After letting the head of the Wu family stamp the seal, he only stamped it later, and the last one was the king seal of Chen'er, and the head of the Wu family was a little speechless. But he didn't say anything, what did he have to say, Chen'er's throne was higher than that of the king of Yuejun, and he was on an equal footing with the king of Zhennan, and his seal could be put together with his, which was a blessing for several lifetimes, but he was speechless, Chen'er was a little bigger, he couldn't speak, and he would talk about business. Isn't this an attempt to cover up?
After sending off the head of the Wu family, Poria hurriedly asked Zhi to go to breakfast in the evening, and if she didn't eat breakfast, it would be time for lunch in a while, and she was stepping out of the main house. I heard the sound of footsteps.
Zhiwan turned his head to look, and saw that under the sun, handsome and uncast, the upside-down posture of all beings stepped into the courtyard gate, the sky blue brocade robe moved around, the clothes fluttered, and a white jade fan shook gently. The evil phoenix eyes evoke a smile and make people feel refreshed.
She swallowed her saliva subconsciously, she was already hungry, and when she saw such beautiful scenery at first glance, her stomach was almost not singing the empty city song, and she was about to go down the steps. But his eyes widened.
Who is that man?
The azure cloud brocade robe, embroidered with elegant green bamboo, has a handsome face, a calm step, and a tall posture like a thousand-year-old sword inserted on the mountain peak. Graceful and introverted, it is also a pair of phoenix eyes, narrow and long, the bottom of the eyes is deep and invisible, with a trace of hesitation, there is a kind of indifference that rejects people from the king of thousands of miles, and the whole body exudes a cold feeling that no one should enter, but it is not annoying.
The most peculiar thing is not his peerless appearance, but his hair, snow-white like a white fox, like a snow lotus on the Tianshan Mountain, without a trace of dust, pure Zhiwan reminds Zhiwan of the silk used to make small software for Chen'er Si'er.
In front of such two beautiful men, the handsome young master of the Su family, Su Ang, was obviously not enough, but seeing his cousin staring at other people's white hair, Su Ang's face was a little unbearable, and he laughed a little.
And a certain county king directly blackfaced, Ren is which man saw his wife ignoring himself, staring at a foreign man, and the mood could be good, those charming phoenix eyes with a little bit of flowing fire, with a hint of warning looked at Zhiwan, Zhiwan felt uncomfortable when he saw it, "Then look at what I do, Xianggong, I thought that the entire Dayue Dynasty, except for Chen'er, no one can compare to you in the future, but I didn't expect to meet one today." ”
Zhiwan's voice was not loud or small, the courtyard was close, and he heard it carefully, looking at her with a brush, the corners of his mouth twitched, and there was a trace of doubt in his eyes.
Can a white-haired monster be more beautiful than the prince of the county? It's ironic to say this in front of him.
Su Ang stroked his forehead, his cousin's eyes were really not good, Ye Guiyue was angry and wanted to pinch Zhiwan's neck, he could see from Zhiwan's eyes that she really thought she was handsome.
The man stood there, his handsome and fair face flushed, his eyes a little evasive, and a little flustered and overwhelmed.
Seeing him like that, Ye Guiyue glared at Zhiwan fiercely, and introduced her, "He is the son of the former general Xi Rong, Xi Shi." ”
Zhiwan listened to it, his mouth opened wide, and his eyes widened, "Xi Shi? The west of the east, west, north and south, the Shi Nai'an's Shi, the amount, is not, the construction of Shi? ”
Ye Guiyue nodded his head, "What's wrong?" ”
In response to him, there was a series of laughter, the one who laughed happily, Zhiwan covered his stomach, his face was almost tense when he smiled, and Poria and Bai Peony behind him also covered their mouths and smiled, laughing like a stealing cat.
This laugh is so inexplicable, Su Ang is confused, and the other maids and daughters-in-law are also puzzled, is there a problem with Xi Gongzi calling Xi Shi?
Su Ang glanced at Zhiwan, looked at Xi Shi again, and frowned, "Isn't it appropriate to call Xi Shi?" ”
Zhiwan shook her head again and again, she didn't mean to laugh, she really couldn't hold back, she hadn't seen the ancient Yue beauty Xi Shi, but she didn't expect that in the Da Yue Dynasty, she saw a male version of Xi Shi, or a handsome guy, is it destined to be beautiful?
Knowing that it was too late, Su Ang looked at Poria Cocos, and Poria covered her mouth and said, "The princess of the county said before she got married, there used to be a very beautiful and beautiful girl who could make the fish in the water sink into the water in shame, and she is also called Xi Shi." ”
Su Ang looked at Zhiwan in astonishment, then at Xi Shi, his shoulders began to tremble, Ye Guiyue rubbed his temples, glanced at Zhiwan fiercely, looked back at the blushing and purple Xi Shi, and said, "Neiko is messing around, you don't have the same knowledge as him." ”
Xi Shi shook his head, and the cold wind deliberately jumped on his face that couldn't laugh. Please come into the house.
Poor Zhiwan couldn't wait to eat, there was a visitor, Ye Guiyue couldn't help but say that he led her into the house again, and Poria wanted to say that she was hungry. Bai Shao shook his head and said, "I'm afraid there is something urgent, it's almost noon, wait a while, and have lunch together?" ”
Sitting on the seat, Zhiwan began to apologize, it doesn't matter who the surname is, besides, I don't know how many people have the same name and surname in the world. It's just that she didn't expect that an ancient beauty and an ancient beauty would be called the same name, a coincidence, a pure coincidence.
Originally, Zhiwan's apology, everyone listened to it and listened to it comfortably. But as soon as he said that he had the same name as a beautiful woman, and that Xi Shi was a beautiful man, the young master of the West couldn't sit still, "I met the princess of the county for the first time, why did the princess of the county humiliate me several times?" ”
The smile on the corner of Zhiwan's mouth stopped abruptly, didn't she apologize, and she didn't mean to. What's wrong with having the same name as a woman, I listened to Ye Guiyue, "He doesn't like character to talk about his appearance, as for being called Xi Shi, this can't be blamed on him, it is the wife of General Xi whose surname is Shi." He was named Xi Shi. ”
The black line on Zhiwan's face slowly flowed down, changed the topic, and asked Ye Guiyue why he dragged her in, you men talk, there is no need for her to be present!
Su Ang was drinking tea. Hearing this, he glanced at Xi Shi before he said to Zhiwan, "My cousin has excellent medical skills, and the young master of Xi University has had white hair since he was a child, and he can't be cured by looking for famous doctors, so let you help me take a look." ”
Zhiwan didn't expect Xi Shi to come to seek medical treatment, and looked at his white hair again, and said, "How beautiful is this white hair, it's really going to turn black?" ”
Ahem!
Ye Guiyue, who was drinking tea, took a sip of tea and sprayed far away, crying and laughing, how could he tell her that it was the same as saying it in vain, can a normal person be white-haired, and said that it was beautiful, where is it beautiful?
Poria and Bai Peony also felt that Zhiwan's eyes were problematic, so they saw Zhiwan walking towards Xi Shi, grabbed his snow-white hair, touched it gently, and praised that the hair was well maintained.
I also took the pulse of the young master of the West, there is nothing wrong with the body, I want to turn my hair white, the effect of ordinary methods is too slow, and it is not significant, but I am very good at dyeing my hair.
In her previous life, she developed hair dyes of various colors for her roommates without hurting her hair.
"What color are you going to turn your hair into? Red, green, yellow, purple? ”
“…… Black. ”
Zhiwan pouted, it was really not fun, Su Ang over there stared at his eyes, "Cousin, can your hair still turn red?" ”
Zhiwan nodded lightly and said with a smile, "Cousin, do you want to try it?" ”
Su Ang immediately shook his head, "There is no need for this, my cousin likes his black and bright hair very much." ”
Zhiwan was sweating, turned around and went to write a prescription for the young master of the West to regulate his body, and the other one was a material for Leng Feng to buy back, and she wanted to configure the potion.
After writing, the maid came in and said, "Lord Jun, lunch is ready, can you use it now?" ”
Zhiwan was almost hungry, and he hurriedly ordered the maid to bring the food up, and served it on the table, Zhiwan was not polite, and feasted, like that, he was stunned by the young master of the West, and the corners of his mouth hooked a faint smile, Brother Yue's princess is really straightforward.
Ye Guiyue shook his head in addition to shaking his head, talking to the young master of the West, and only after listening to it for a while did he understand that Ye Guiyue had another task on this trip, that is, to invite the hidden General of the West to go out of the mountain, and it seemed that he was really going to fight.
The young master of the West shook his head and said, "My father has been in seclusion for six years, and his heart to fight on the battlefield has also faded, and there are Zhennan Wang and Guan Lao General in the court. ”
General Xi and the king of Zhennan are brothers, both are the disciples of General Guan, six years ago Nan Shun invaded the border, the Nan Shun of the Great Yue fought was defeated and retreated, but finally was called back by a holy decree, accepted Nan Shun's request for peace, General Xi was unwilling, he knew Nan Shun's ambition, once not afraid of him, he would definitely bite back, the minister who agreed with the truce in the court accused him of great joy, the general wanted to make meritorious contributions, and the promotion must have military merits.
General Xi is an iron-blooded general, and he can't stand the speculation of such villains, so he killed one with one punch, threw down Shuai Yin, resigned and stopped doing it, and sued for peace left and right, everyone lived and worked in peace and contentment, and he was not needed, and the emperor allowed it.
The prince had long known about General Xida's seclusion in Wang Longshan in Yizhou, but he didn't let go of his mouth after a few invitations, and he happened to learn that Ye Guiyue was going to Yongzhou and would settle down in Yizhou, so he handed over the matter to him.
But early this morning, Ye Guiyue went to eat a closed door, fortunately, he had a little friendship with the young master of the west, so he talked a few words, Su Ang accompanied Ye Guiyue to go, and when he saw the decoction of the little girl, he asked the young master of the west about the situation, coincidentally, since he is sick, he has to be treated, if you want to say that the medical skills in this world are good, can anyone surpass his cousin?
Zhiwan feasted, and soon filled his stomach seven or eight points full, and then looked at the young master of the West and said, "A general who is determined to kill and retreat the enemy soldiers of Nanshun will be willing to live in seclusion if he runs away in a negative mood?" ”
Under the sight of Zhiwan in full swing, the young master of the West blushed a little, his eyes were a little evasive, except for his father and the personal servant, no one had ever touched his white hair, she was the first, as long as he thought of the scene just now, his heart couldn't help beating a little faster, but when he thought that she was Ye Guiyue's princess, the eyes of the young master of the West dimmed a lot, "The princess of the county is right, my father is unwilling to live in seclusion, the emperor has no ambition, even if my father goes out of the mountain again, he will still return to seclusion in the end, so why be disappointed again?" ”
Zhiwan raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, "In this way, if the emperor comes to invite, General Xida will return to Beijing?" ”
Su Ang was stunned, how could it be, how could the emperor condescend to Yizhou to invite General Xida, unless the sun hit the west and came out.
The young master of the West University did not speak, because the general of the West University only said today that unless the emperor came to invite, he would never step into the capital in this life!
Zhiwan glanced at Ye Guiyue, a smile flashed in his eyes, since General Xida is the righteous brother of King Zhennan, and let Ye Guiyue come to invite, he is naturally a trustworthy person, he should know the mind of King Zhennan, Chen'er is the grandson of King Zhennan, and there is an emperor rope, that is a new generation of emperors, he can not be loyal to the current emperor, he can be loyal to Chen'er!
Ye Guiyue also understood the smile in Zhiwan's eyes, and was a little helpless, this woman really wants to put Chen'er on the throne, first Jinshan, the head of the first family of Dayue, and now he is helping him to envelop the general, who can shake the throne of Chen'er in the future?
After lunch, Leng Feng bought the materials back, and in the afternoon, Zhiwan was in the house to develop the potion, and Ye Guiyue and the young master of the West went to Wang Longshan again.
When the potion was ready, it was already nightfall, Ye Guiyue and the young master of the west came back, and after dinner, he helped the young master of the west dye his hair.
Within half an hour, Zhiwan let a group of people see what it means to turn decay into magic, and a white hair turned into a black black hair like night.
Su Ang compared his hair and felt that it was not as good as that of the young master of the West, and he was a little depressed, "Cousin, his hair has always been like this since then?" ”
Zhiwan shook his head lightly, "This is hair dyeing, although the potion I configured has a good effect, but the hair that grows is still white, and it will be dyed once in about three or four months." ”
Three or four months? When Su Ang heard this number, silver flashed in his mind, hair is very important to women, many people start to gray hair at the age of thirty or forty, or become frizzy, if my cousin's hair dye medicine can be sold, are you afraid that no one will buy it?
Su Ang told Zhiwan about this idea, and Poria couldn't help but laugh first, the princess of the county had already thought of this, which made Su Ang embarrassed.
After his hair turned white, the young master of the West looked at the mirror and looked at it, before that, what he was most afraid of was to look in the mirror, and he didn't let go of the mirror, or Ye Guiyue blasted him out, "This mirror will be given to you, you will Wang Longshan slowly appreciate it." ”
The young master of the West glanced at Ye Guiyue, the inferiority complex at the bottom of his eyes was swept away, and his spirit was high, "In the dead of night, you let me go back to Wanglongshan alone, if something happens, aren't you afraid that my father will chase you with a knife?" ”
Ye Guiyue's face was full of black lines, "What you should be worried about is whether you will fly off the wall to flirt with other people's ladies!" ”
The young master of the West suddenly turned crimson on his cheeks, Ye Guiyue is a well-known gentleman in Kyoto, and he often goes in and out of the Qinglou restaurant, and he talks to him, isn't it asking for hardship?
The young master of the West did not go back, the reason is very simple, tomorrow early in the morning, his father has to come, he can only sleep for two or three hours when he goes back at this hour, that is to find guilt.
