Chapter 138: King Jing is trapped
King Jing was set up
Tang Qibai walked for a total of ten days before coming back.
He was still wearing the same clothes he had gone out, and his face was stubble, and he looked a little haggard.
He led the horse into the horse, fed some fodder, brushed the saddle and brushed the horse.
The eldest lady prepared hot water, walked up to Tang Qibai, and whispered about her recent business, but she only mentioned the matter of being pitted.
Tang Qibai smiled and said without care: "Of course, there are profits and losses in business, just get the money back, pay attention next time." ”
He took a shower and turned into the personable His Royal Highness King Jing, and walked into the study refreshed.
Tang Jing had already waited for a while, closed the doors and windows, and cut off the view from the outside.
Tian Yunyun retracted her gaze, the corners of her mouth rose, and she thought that you could hear it even if you closed it.
In the study.
Tang Qibai took a sip of tea, "It's a pity that the clue is broken again." ”
Tang Jing: "Subordinate, I will continue to look for it." ”
Tang Qibai put down the teacup, "It's useless to be anxious, the court hasn't been looking for more than ten years, everything depends on the will of God!" ”
Tang Jing was a little puzzled in his heart, "Your Highness, I haven't found the princess of the previous dynasty for so many years, could it be that she is no longer there?" ”
There was silence for a long time.
Tang Qibai: "After looking for a few more months, I really can't find any other way." ”
……
Tang Qibai came back early and returned late, but the soldiers didn't let Tian Yunyun follow.
Tian Yunyun doesn't care, she is looking for her father every day.
Tang Qibai has accumulated experience, and his business is getting smoother and smoother, and his interests affect several big businessmen in Liangdu.
In a mansion in Liangdu, there were seven or eight businessmen.
One of the round-headed businessmen appears to be their head.
He took a cup of tea, blew it gently, and sighed pretendedly, "Where did that little girl who appeared recently come out of nowhere and robbed me of a lot of business." ”
Another thin merchant with a goatee chimed in: "It also robbed me of a lot of business, and the tea was sold by 20%!" ”
The others nodded in agreement, "yes! What do you say? ”
"I still have so many people to support, and I still have money for every month's rent."
The round-headed and round-headed businessman touched his chin, "Let's salute first and then soldier, if she knows each other, forget it, if she doesn't know whether she lives or dies, hehehe......"
Several people put their heads together and started a conspiracy.
Tang Qibai's people went to the nearby small village to collect grain as usual, and they originally said that there was no food.
The soldier froze in place, his money bag halfway out, and was pushed back.
The other party waved his hand, "It's gone, it's gone, let's go!" ”
Soldier: "Didn't you say yes?" ”
The other party was obviously reluctant to say more.
He slapped his thigh hard, remembering that the girl had asked him to sign a contract.
Thinking that he would go a little further, maybe there would be some food, he drove the ox cart on.
……
Tian Yunyun got up early in the morning, and made noodles with her aunt, and she didn't see anyone come back to pick up breakfast for a long time.
The eldest lady went to the door several times to see it, and she was so anxious that she said, "Don't have an accident." ”
If you lose it, it's not a small amount.
Tang Qibai rode a horse and galloped to the gate, he got off the horse and threw the horse rope to the eldest lady, "Is Miss Tian at home?" ”
Auntie: "Yes!" ”
With a heart, he watched Tang Qibai stride into the door, and the corners of his black robe floated up.
Tian Yunyun knew it the moment Tang Qibai came in.
Tang Qibai was dressed in black, with a solemn expression on his face.
Walking with a gust of wind and standing in front of Tian Yunyun in a few steps, "Miss Tian, we can't receive the goods, and we can't hand over the goods to Beishang, and the other party wants a large amount of compensation." ”
Two thousand taels of silver, it hurts to think about it, and the army has been frugal enough for several months.
Tian Yunyun knew in her heart that Tang Qibai was tricked, "Didn't Your Highness sign an agreement with retail investors?" ”
Tang Qibai: "It's our people's negligence, and we see that they are all poor people." ”
Tian Yunyun took two steps forward, stopped and said, "Usually this situation is that someone has been tricked, and His Highness may have touched the interests of others. That person must be in the cool capital. ”
Tang Qibai was stunned at first, as if he had thought of something?
Then his face changed, "I see, what if those people have a deep background? ”
Tian Yunyun smiled, "Your Highness is talking about the positive!" ”
Tang Qi's white pupils shook, and he glanced at Tian Yunyun more, how could he think she knew everything.
In an instant, Tang Qibai already had an idea, and his mood relaxed, "Thank you!" ”
Tang Qibai turned around and walked outside, but his steps were brisk at this time, which was completely different from when he came back.
After a while, the eldest lady came back, and she said to Tian Yunyun with a smile: "Miss Tian, I'll send the breakfast over, and I'll brush the pot when I come back." ”
Tian Yunyun nodded, "Okay, let's go together!" I was just about to go out. ”
Auntie: "Okay, good! ”
The two parted in the market, Tian Yunyun was dressed very ordinarily today, in blue coarse cloth clothes, carrying a basket, and wrapping a cloth towel around her head.
She walked to a stall selling miscellaneous grains, and the stall owner rarely set up a stall at a glance, and she couldn't let go, and she didn't shout when she saw people coming.
A piece of cloth was topped with sacks of beans, chestnut rice, and the like, and the mouth of the bag was open.
The stall owner's face is the sauce color of a cropper, and he looks older than his actual age.
Tian Yunyun squatted down and grabbed a handful of chestnut rice.
The stall owner smiled, "This is grown in my own field." ”
Tian Yunyun asked about the price, which was more than twice as expensive as some time ago.
"It's so expensive!" Tian Yunyun let go, and the chestnut rice was like an hourglass, all back in the sack.
She stood up and turned to leave.
"Girl, wait!" The stall owner opened his mouth to stop her.
Tian Yunyun turned around, "This is too expensive, I can't afford it." ”
The stall owner sighed, looked left and right, and said in a low voice, "Girl, you can say as much as you want." Just keep quiet. ”
Tian Yunyun's eyes rolled, and she asked puzzledly, "Why?" ”
The stall owner patted his thigh, "I'll tell you the truth!" ”
He took two steps back and looked at Tian Yunyun.
Tian Yunyun followed him aside, and the stall owner whispered: "Our goods were originally for a buyer, who knew that the buyer was offended." ”
The stall owner stopped and pointed to the sky, and continued: "The above warning we can't sell to that buyer at a low price, otherwise we won't accept our grain in the future, and there is no way that these grains can't rot at home, and the whole family still has to dress and eat." ”
Tian Yunyun looked at the stall owner in shock, "Didn't the one above compensate you?" ”
The stall owner pursed his lips and shook his head, "Hey! ”
He sighed vigorously, his weather-beaten face full of helplessness.
Tian Yunyun: "I want all of these, but at the price of half a month ago, I'll go back and ask someone to move." ”
The stall owner was overjoyed, "Eh, good." ”
The other party did not take advantage of the fire to rob.
He bent down and nodded at Tian Yunyun and thanked him!
Tian Yunyun walked a few steps, and suddenly turned around and said, "You help me ask, if there is any grain in other families, my lord wants a large amount of grain to be transported back to Jindu." ”
The stall owner looked happy, "Yes, I'll go and say." ”
Tian Yunyun left the market, thinking that the eldest lady should not have gone back at this time, she remembered that Tang Qibai bought a set of yards next to the market as a warehouse.
He strode to the front of the house and knocked on the door.
The door opened halfway, and the eldest lady saw that she was letting aside, "Miss Tian, why are you here?" ”
Tian Yunyun walked in and asked as she walked, "Are they all there, big brother?" ”
The soldier was holding a cake and gnawing on it, and he took a big bite and pulled it hard.
said to the people around him: "It's so infuriating, I found a few villages, but no one sold them to me, and all of them opened their mouths to more than double the price." ”
When I usually went to harvest, I felt that they had worked hard to grow crops, and they had given enough money, and they never bargained.
It feels like a pack of white-eyed wolves.
The other Gu Dong poured half a pot of water before saying, "Where can I get two thousand taels of silver to pay for others?" ”
Auntie: "Miss Tian is here." ”
The soldier immediately shut up, and the other retracted his foot from the chair.
They all stood up straight and looked at Tian Yunyun with some embarrassment.
Tian Yunyun put the basket on the table, "You find a few fresh faces and go buy food with me." ”
Soldier: "Miss Tian, the price of grain is too expensive now, and a stone of wheat costs at least more than 20 yuan." Even if you have the food, it is a loss-making business. ”
Tian Yunyun: "I told people that as long as seven dollars and one stone, hurry up and call someone!" Later, he will sell it to someone else. ”
The soldier was dumbfounded: "Really? ”
The eldest lady said happily: "I'll go find someone." ”
Tian Yunyun: "It's okay, it's all men who are afraid that the other party will be suspicious." ”
A quarter of an hour later, Tian Yunyun led a group of people to the market and stood in front of the stall owner.
The stall owner glanced at the people who came, including aunts, uncles, and a few young people, all of whom had never seen it.
He pointed to the grain on the ox cart behind him, and there were several people standing next to the ox cart.
He was also dressed in dusty clothes, with his sleeves rolled up, and his hair combed on the top of his head and pulled balls.
The stall owner led Tian Yunyun to the carriage and talked to a few people.
The eldest lady nervously tugged at the clothes on her side, the uncle cleared his throat, and the eldest mother quickly let go of her hand.
At this moment, Tian Yunyun turned around and beckoned to them with a smile, "Take the goods away!" ”
A group of people put the grain on their ox carts, loaded two carts full, and said that they would go to the village to get the rest.
At this time, two men in the shape of street slickers stood aside, wearing dark blue robes, knocking melon seeds and spitting melon seed shells on the ground.
The stall owner was obviously afraid of them, and took the initiative to explain: "Uncle, this is a wealthy businessman from Jindu, and it is all according to the price you said. ”
He took out a piece of broken silver from his purse and handed it over tremblingly.
One of the street runners rushed over impatiently, turned his head to look at his companion, and smiled his gums, "Let's go, let's drink!" ”
"Hahaha!"
The two of them walked away with their heads held back and swaggering.
The stall owner breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and urged, "You guys go quickly!" lest they come back to trouble! ”
The uncle carried a sack of grain on his ox cart and asked, "Who are they?" ”
The stall owner shook his head and sighed, "Don't be nosy, you can't afford to mess with it!" ”
A trace of fierceness flashed in the uncle's eyes, and he quickly returned to normal, "Hurry up, everyone!" ”
The others immediately sped up, and all of them bowed their heads to work, but no one noticed the joy on their faces.
The eldest lady and the others led the ox cart back.
Uncle Tian Yunyun took a few people and the stall owner to the village outside the city.
