Cheng Yanjin came to find Lu Heng late at night.

It was already dark, but there was a bang on the back door of the small courtyard, as if someone was smashing it.

Lu Heng went to open the door impatiently, and saw Lao Cheng's black face smiling extremely brightly at him.

He was silent for a long time, and then said:

“…… Uncle Cheng, when is this, you don't sleep? ”

Cheng Yanjin was very excited, he didn't care what he was talking about, he raised his feet and was about to walk inside, followed by Cheng Chumo.

"Sleep, come, come, drink some wine together! The old man will stay with you for one night today, and he will go back tomorrow morning! ”

Lu Heng looked left and right in a daze.

What is the situation? Lao Cheng didn't sleep in the middle of the night, why did he come to his own restaurant?

He followed, his brow furrowed:

"Uncle Cheng, what are you doing here, tell me quickly!"

"In addition to Yu'er in this courtyard, there is also Xiaozhao's girl, it's not appropriate for you to be so noisy."

Cheng Yanjin suddenly stopped.

He also heard that Lu Heng's newly accepted female apprentice had some ability.

Seems to be able to mentally calculate the books of accounts extremely quickly and without the slightest error?

Although this girl's family has nothing to do with him, at most he has seen it a few times in the western suburbs, but after all, it is related to the wine business, so it is better to be respectful.

looked left and right, and found that no one else in the courtyard was there except Lu Heng, it was estimated that he was sleeping, and Cheng Yanjin was a little relieved.

He pulled Lu Heng to sit on the edge of the stone table, and said in a low voice:

"Virtuous nephew, it is indeed as you expected, that Tubo man came to the old man today to take the initiative to discuss the conditions, and he was in a hurry, as if he was afraid that the old man would change his mind and not agree!"

"The price the old man offered them was either a horse for a bottle of wine, or thirty-five sheep or fifteen cows for a bottle."

"Do you think this price is appropriate?"

Lu Heng looked at Cheng Yanjin with some surprise and didn't speak for a long time.

He didn't expect that Lao Cheng would pay the price to himself so bluntly and cheerfully.

After all, Cheng Biting Jin's character that fell into the eyes of Qian is not only clear to him Lu Heng, but even His Majesty Li Er.

Such a person will directly lift all the hole cards with himself?

Seeing Lu Heng's puzzled eyes, Cheng Yanjin was a little unhappy.

"Nephew, what is your expression?"

"The old man can tell you that a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way!"

"This business was introduced by you, and how to give the old man a cut later, then we will discuss, but this first thing must be discussed with you first, otherwise the rules will be broken."

"Don't talk about the court, even when the old man was reckless, he had to talk about this, if not, what kind of system would it be?"

Lu Heng laughed.

When he thought about it, he found a clue.

Except for the horses that the imperial court needed most and for its fundamental purpose.

Cheng Biting Jin's other prices for the Tubo people can really be described as a lion's mouth!

Whether it's a cow or a sheep, it's almost double the price.

If you want to make the difference, it's not easy?

"Uncle Cheng, your abacus is much more shrewd than me."

Lu Heng raised his eyebrows and smiled evilly:

"Tell me, how much do you want to take out of these?"

"Don't treat me as a fool like the Tubo people, we have to say that although we borrowed the name of your Cheng family, it was actually Wang Xuance and their gang who finally transported the wine to the side, that is, the strength of the imperial court."

"When we get to the side, we don't need to worry about it, let the Tubo people do their own work."

"You're only famous, so don't open your mouth and come!"

Cheng Yanjin was aware of his thoughts, and couldn't help but smile.

Lu Heng's ears were about to burst when this abacus rang, how could he not guess what his plans were!

Lao Cheng is not a vague person, so he immediately spoke bluntly.

"The old man thought, take a cut of five sheep or a cow for each bottle of wine."

"Horses naturally don't matter, this is what His Majesty wants, and the old man doesn't dare to rob it."

"But cattle and sheep, there should be no problem, right?"

"Nephew, how is this number?"

Lu Heng thought for a moment.

There is no need for the Cheng family to really make efforts to deal with it, although that is the case, but mediation, negotiation, and dealing with it are not in vain.

If you buy a house, you have to pay the intermediary, can you let Lao Cheng be a free laborer? It's not suitable!

After a while, he nodded:

"Yes, I agree to this price, and I don't need to ask Your Majesty for further instructions."

"No, Uncle Cheng, in that case, you have to do me another small favor."

Cheng Biting Jin was surprised:

"Tell me, the old man who can help must help!"

Lu Hengmo rubbed the stone table in his hand and smiled:

"You have to help find a way for the Tibetans."

"Let them feel that this wine is a hard currency that retains its value more than gold, silver, and copper plates in their hands."

"For example......"

"Contact the five surnames and seven hopes for them."

………………

Inn.

On Qinling, who was sent back by Cheng Yanjin under the curfew, had been taken back to the room by Lu Dongzan at this time.

He drank so much that his tongue was bigger.

After all, the tenth spring of Zhenguan is a highly distilled liquor that has not been developed in this era.

Ordinary people can hardly resist a few drinks.

What's more, today on Qinling drank a small half bottle!

Seeing his son talking nonsense, and even wanting to call himself a brother, Lu Dongzan's face darkened.

He instructed the innkeeper to fetch water and threw the wet handkerchief on the face of the Qinling.

Smack.

This kid is only a little awake!

"Do you recognize who I am now?"

Lu Dongzan had a calm face and said coldly:

"Do you still call me big brother?"

On Qinling was so frightened that he woke up most of the time, and stammered to explain.

"Apa, I, I'm not ......"

"This wine is very misleading, it's too strong!"

"But I'm not greedy for a cup, mainly because I discussed the price with that Lu Guogong today, he loves to drink, if I don't drink more to make him happy, I'm afraid the price won't be able to be suppressed!"

Hearing that his son had lowered the price, Lu Dongzan's face was a little better.

He asked in a deep voice:

"Whether the talks have been completed today, what are the conditions for the talks, tell me about them."

On Qinling hurriedly told his father the details and results of his discussion with Cheng Yanjin.

After listening to this, Lu Dongzan frowned.

It looks like a little dissatisfied, but a little relieved.

He shook his head and said:

"As expected, this Lu Guogong is a guy who wants to make money......"

"In addition to horses, cattle and sheep have already doubled in price."

"What's free...... Obviously a treacherous businessman! ”

On Qinling at a loss:

"Ah...... Shall we renegotiate the terms with them? ”

Lu Dongzan shook his head again.

"It's not that Tubo can't afford to pay this money."

"It's just the details, maybe I have to write to Zampu to discuss it."
