Chapter 56: The Old Fox

As if sensing Zhu Huan's killing intent, Liang Shu opened his mouth and said, "Lord Wang, there are only a few years left to live. ”

"Only the dead are the most reassuring." Zhu Huan said lightly.

Liang Shu slowly got up and looked at Zhu Huan.

This is a silent duel, one is His Royal Highness King Qi of the Ming Dynasty, and the other is the ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, the young man is like an old treacherous fox, and the old man is like a high-spirited young man.

"Lord Wang, you are not a person who is willing to stop at the status quo, you have the ambition to be the emperor." The old man's eyes sparkled.

Zhu Huan suddenly laughed, lifted the wine glass, and drank it all.

Yan Gang pressed his hand on the hilt of the knife, his eyes were cold, as if he would draw a knife and slash at the old man's head at any time.

The girl in cloth was still calm, as if she was outside the six realms, and everything in the world had nothing to do with her.

"That's interesting." Zhu Huan licked the liquor on the corner of his mouth, and the advantage of height made him feel like he was looking down on the old man: "Let's say, this king is a little interested." ”

"Three million silver, buy three fifth-class merchants, it can be regarded as an explanation to the Yan Wangfu. And Lu'er, on the surface, will not have the slightest relationship with the prince, but in fact, there is a love between men and women. The old man said: "The old man has about three years to live, and within three years, I will bury the layout in the Liang family." If after three years, Prince Qi is still alive, then Lu'er will become the lord of the Liang family, and then the prince will be able to receive the Liang family's full help. Three years later, if the prince is gone, then the Qi Wangfu and the Liang family will have nothing to do with each other. ”

Zhu Huan sneered: "You have a good calculation, no matter what the result is, your Liang family will not lose." Do business to dare to make money, you are reluctant to do business, but you are also worthy of doing business with this king? ”

"Then what does the prince want?" Liang Shu asked.

Zhu Huan shook his head: "It's not what this king wants, but what you have." ”

It was an unequal negotiation, with Zhu Huan condescending and Liang Shu pleading at best.

Without Liang Shu, Zhu Huan is still his Prince of Qi. But without Zhu Huan, the Liang family building would collapse if it could not last for 30 years.

Liang Shu pondered for a moment and said: "My Liang clan is deeply rooted in Ludi, and the main force of the southern army is in Ludi, I can provide battle reports for the imperial army, at least let the prince take three cities in a row without much effort." ”

"Not enough." Zhu Huan said lightly: "Jing Nan won the war, I do have interests to gain, but the big head is not on me, it is in the Yanwang Mansion." ”

Liang Shu then said: "Over the years, I have spent a lot of money to buy dozens of shops in Jinling City, which are connected into lines, and I can bring two million taels of silver to the prince every year. ”

"Not enough." Zhu Huan said: "It's too eye-catching, there are too many eyes in Jinling City, these two million taels are chicken ribs, it's useless to want it, it's a pity to abandon it." ”

"The Liang family has a silver mine in Nanyang, Henan, with an annual output of 800,000 taels, although the income is not too high, but it can be hidden from people and can quietly accumulate wealth for the prince."

"Not enough."

Liang Shu paused for a moment and said, "Lord Wang, let's say it directly, what do you like?" ”

Zhu Huan smiled and said, "This king doesn't want your Liang family's gold and silver mountains, only your general ledger." ”

Liang Shu's old face was a little moved: "Lord Wang, do you want my Liang family to be a dog for you?" ”

Liang's account book is divided into general ledger and sub-ledger, and there are hundreds of sub-ledgers, which are in the hands of Liang's shopkeepers all over the country, but there is only one general ledger, which is in the hands of Liang Shu.

The huge Liang family has been able to develop to this day, and there are no less things that cannot be seen, and they are all recorded in the general ledger. This general ledger has always been an account of the head of the family, and when the head of each family dies, what must be done is to burn the general ledger during his tenure.

If this account falls into the hands of someone else, it will undoubtedly be a catastrophe.

And no matter what Zhu Huan wants, at most it will damage the vitality of the Liang family. But he wants the general account, that is, to make the Liang family's life.

"Doing business with this king, if you are not ready to break the cauldron, you really plan to empty the gloves of the white wolf?" Zhu Huan said coldly: "This deal is very cost-effective, if you win the bet, the Liang family will soar." The bet was lost, and the Liang clan was wiped out. But if this king doesn't help you, your Liang family will also die, but it will be a few years later. Liang Shu, you won't be incomprehensible about this account. ”

"I can find other people, it's not just Qi Wangfu's choice." The beam beam surface sinks like water.

Zhu Huan sneered: "Old man Liang, don't you think it's too late to say this now?" Now that you've found the king, you're left with only two options, either do business with the king or die. ”

Yan Gang drew the knife and put it on Liang Shu's neck, his eyes cold.

At such a critical moment, the girl in cloth suddenly said: "Old." ”

“?”

Zhu Huan looked at the girl in cloth, and his eyes were a little puzzled: "What did you say?" ”

"The lamb is old." The girl in cloth pointed to the slices of mutton churning in the copper pot and said.

"Hehe, that's interesting." Zhu Huan lifted the chopsticks, fished out the mutton slices and put them in his mouth: "Old man Liang, your granddaughter is really good, if she dies here today, it's a pity." ”

Liang Shu glanced at his granddaughter, took a deep breath, and said, "My Liang family's general ledger will be sent to the prince tomorrow." ”

"Happy!" Zhu Huan lifted his cup and said, "Drink one?" ”

Liang Shu lifted the wine cup and clinked glasses with Zhu Huan.

When the liquor enters the throat, it is clearly a beautiful thing, but Liang Shu's heart is indeed quite bitter.

If he loses the bet this time, then the Liang family will really lose the bet.

But......

Liang Shu has always been very confident in his gambling luck and vision, and he believes that this time will be no exception.

……

"It's not too early, so the old man will take his leave first."

Liang Shu flicked his sleeves and got up, ready to leave.

"Hmm." Zhu Huan nodded and did not stay.

It's just a polite remark, Zhu Huan and Liang Shu have already opened the skylight to say something bright tonight, and there is no need to take out this kind of polite remark to disgust people, after all, it is impossible for him to really leave this old fox overnight.

Zhu Huan looked at the backs of Liang Shu and the girl in cloth who were gradually moving away, and there was more ruthlessness in his eyes.

Yan Gang noticed Zhu Huan's eyes and asked: "Your Highness, this old fox surnamed Liang is too threatening, or I will catch up with him now......

Yan Gang made a throat-slitting motion.

"He's a smart guy, and he's very bold." There was a faint light in Zhu Huan's eyes: "This king was at the dining table just now, and he had murderous intentions several times, and the old fox noticed it, but he remained silent and sat firmly on Mount Tai." ”

"The last general is worried that this person cannot be used by His Highness......"

"I'm not going to use him, he won't live long." Zhu Huan shook his head: "His qi and blood are decaying, his breathing is weak, just now he said that he can live for three years, but according to this king, he can't even live for a year." ”
