After several large-scale slave trades, Li Xing said that he wanted to ask to see the captain of the horses.

When Li Dayong heard this, his face showed joy.

Because the volume of these transactions is very large, and the price is 20% higher than the previous profit.

Of course, it was not Li Dayong who increased the price, but he bought slaves, and children and women were cheaper, but Li Xing collected a family, so the price was the same.

This made the lieutenant behind him very satisfied.

He was asked once who the buyer was.

He honestly confessed to Li Xing.

After hearing this, Zhou Shichang, the commander of the horse, was stunned at first, and then laughed.

and asked him to find a time to make an appointment to meet Li Xing in the mansion.

However, when he left the Horse Mansion, the Horse reminded him that he should not leave a trace of the invitation, so as not to be frightened and dare not come.

Now that Li Xing took the initiative, he naturally refused, and after he promised to go back, he told the captain of the horse.

This made Li Xing very satisfied with Li Dayong.

Especially seeing the skyrocketing prestige value, Li Xing is even more satisfied with Li Dayong.

This kid is a smart man, he just mentioned it, and this guy did it without discount.

Even every slave whose family was bought was grateful to Li Xing.

In particular, Li Xing told them that as long as they worked hard, they could go to slavery, and after half a year, the county would arrange a house for them, and these people were even more grateful to Li Xing.

On this day, Li Xing had just returned from the construction site of the new academic college when he saw Li Dayong waiting for him in the yamen.

Walking over, Li Dayong hurriedly saluted Li Xing, and then said the purpose of coming this time.

It turned out that the captain of the horse agreed to see Li Xing, and also told Li Dayong that he had time for the past few days, and Li Xing could go at any time.

Li Xing's most anxious thing was the matter of the limestone mine, so he didn't delay, and took Li Gou'er to the Horse Mansion on the same day.

Maybe Zhou Shichang, the commander of the horses, had already given orders, so Li Dayong just told Menzi about the situation, one of them went to report, and the other Menzi led them forward.

After the meeting, Zhou Shichang was very enthusiastic.

A good nephew in one bite.

The other party was enthusiastic, and Li Xing could only call the other party Uncle Shi.

How did this generation come about, then it has to start with the ancestors of the Li family.

When the world was conquered, the three ancestors of the Jiang family, the Zhou family, and the Li family were brothers who had been friends for eight worships.

So from the beginning of the founding of the country to the present, half of the royal queens are from the Zhou family, and some are from the Li family and other families.

That is, today's emperor has been disgusted with the family since he was a child, so the queen is just the daughter of a small family, the Zhang family.

After the maid served the tea, Zhou Shichang made a gesture of invitation to Li Xing: "Virtuous nephew, try it, this is a famous Jingquan tea in the south of the Yangtze River, the taste is fragrant and delicious, it has a long history, and it makes people have an endless aftertaste." ”

Li Xing picked up the tea, took a sip, and said with a smile: "Uncle Shi's tea is indeed the best of the best." ”

Seeing Li Xingkua tea, Zhou Shichang was very happy, and said with a smile: "I have invited many people to drink this tea, but only the virtuous nephew drank this tea is the best, and we are really the same people." ”

Zhou Shichang's words are actually a pun.

On the surface, he was talking about tea, but he was actually testing Li Xing.

He said that he was a fellow believer, and as long as Li Xing answered yes, he agreed to cooperate with him.

But if Li Xing said no, then he could only take the second means to solve the problem.

One might ask, what is the second means?

That, of course, is physically destroying the opponent.

Li Xing didn't know why Zhou Shichang asked this question.

But Li Xing knew that if he didn't answer well, he might die.

So he chose not to fight, but pretended not to understand, and changed the topic with a smile: "Uncle Shi, in fact, I came this time and I want to discuss a deal with you." ”

I heard that Li Xing wanted to do business with him.

Zhou Shichang smiled, and he understood Li Xing's words to change the topic to mean that Li Xing was a fellow believer with him.

Because in his opinion, doing business is actually cooperation.

So he asked: "Virtuous nephew, you don't have to be polite, if you have any deals, just say it, as long as I can do it, uncle, I will definitely promise you." ”

Li Xing smiled: "Since Uncle Shi said so, then the little nephew will get straight to the point." ”

Then Li Xing put his idea of wanting to buy and produce limestone mountains.

As soon as he said this, Zhou Shichang was obviously stunned.

The fox looked at Li Xing suspiciously, and asked in a low voice, "Virtuous nephew, why did you buy this mountain?" ”

"It's not a big deal, the prince suppressed bandits, many soldiers were killed, and I don't want them to become lonely ghosts, so I want to buy this mountain and place their corpses, and even clothed mounds."

After years of traffic experience, Li Xing came as soon as he opened his mouth.

You can't fool ghosts with this, let alone Zhou Shichang, an old and cunning man.

"Nephew, it's not interesting if you don't tell the truth, who doesn't know that the mountain is a stone mountain, even if those stones are not too hard, but I also know that it is not suitable for burying corpses."

Li Xing insisted: "Uncle Shi, this is a bad statement, it is really because those stones are not hard that I chose that place, I want to build a separate tomb for the dead soldiers, everyone will build a separate tomb, in the territory of Lingwu, that mountain is undoubtedly the best choice." ”

When Li Xing spoke, Zhou Shichang just kept watching Li Xing's expression change.

In the end, it turned out that Li Xing didn't seem to be lying.

But he always felt in his heart that this matter was not so simple.

So he said out loud and tentatively: "This...... That one...... Virtuous nephew, that mountain is quite big, you can bury the soldiers on the side of Lingwu County, and the princess and I don't have to worry about it. ”

Li Xing shook his head: "Uncle Shi, are you underestimating me Li Xing, I will never harm the interests of others when I do things, even if Uncle Shi agrees, I can't violate my own principles, in order to bury the soldiers, I must buy the whole mountain." Zhou Shichang has heard too much about this kind of scene!

He still didn't believe it, rolled his eyes, and immediately thought of a way to test again.
