Chapter 29 Borrowing 100,000 taels

After a quarter of an hour, Shu Qingling hurried back from outside.

took off the aura of the eldest lady of the Shu family and changed into a coarse linen dress, but it did not hide her beauty at all.

As soon as she entered the door, Shu Wan'er couldn't help but pounce on her.

"Sister! You're finally back! ”

"Is there a knock on the door today?"

Shu Wan'er shook her head, "No, Sister don't worry. ”

Then, Shu Wan'er gently pointed her finger at the courtyard.

At this time, Shu Qingling saw Li Yunxing with his back to them.

"Too ...... His Royal Highness the Prince! ”

Shu Qingling hurriedly pulled her sister to kneel and salute, her voice revealing a little nervousness and trembling.

Li Yunxing turned around with an indifferent expression, "Miss Shu, if this palace doesn't come to look for you, have you forgotten something?" ”

One sentence made Shu Qingling's hairs stand on end.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, this is not the case! It's just that the parents at home have not been buried for a long time, and they are worried that the weather will stink from the heat, so they want to deal with it as soon as possible, so that the father and mother can rest in peace as soon as possible. ”

"Do you know that if you delay the time of this palace, this Shu family may have a second funeral."

This sentence is extremely threatening.

Sansi Nongqing is dead, although a lot of stolen silver has been recovered, but the flood in Jingzhou has not been settled, and the suffering of the common people has not been solved.

Li Yunxing is not a living Buddha, it is impossible to give her so much time to be sad and sad.

He had to take control of the fleet along the river as soon as possible.

"His Royal Highness's forgiveness is not that the little girl is unwilling, but after the death of her father, her mother's family directly cut off contact. The fleet ......"

Shu Qingling swallowed a mouthful of saliva and didn't dare to say any more.

previously promised Li Yunxing that she could use her mother's fleet for the prince's use.

Unexpectedly, after Shu Qian hanged himself with his family, his mother's family was afraid of being implicated.

directly cut off contact with Sister Shu Qingling.

Now they can't borrow even a tael of silver, and their sisters haven't eaten a grain of rice for two days.

"So, you're playing with Hongu?"

"The people don't dare!" Shu Qingling hurriedly knelt down, "Please also ask the prince to be calm and not impatient, the folk girl has prepared something and is about to present it to the prince." ”

After getting Li Yunxing's acquiescence, Shu Qingling hurriedly got up from the ground.

Shu Wan'er followed her sister step by step and followed into the study.

Although she is still young, she also knows how to read people's eyes.

This His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is by no means a good person, otherwise the elder sister would not be able to tremble with fright.

After entering the study, only the two of them remained, and Shu Wan'er held Shu Qingling's hand.

He whispered, "Sister, don't be afraid. ”

Shu Qingling glanced at her sister and felt appeased a lot.

Pull out a smile before pulling out a scroll from the cabinet.

"Don't worry, my sister will protect you."

The two sisters held hands and returned to the courtyard, Shu Qingling knelt down and presented the scroll to Li Yunxing with both hands.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, please take a look."

"What is this?"

"Wu Dynasty River Transport Map."

River transport map? Li Yunxing was shocked.

The Wu Dynasty was vast and crisscrossed by rivers. Unlike modern professional satellite surveying and mapping, it is extremely difficult to draw a map of river transportation.

A river map is no less precious than a city, why does Shu Qingling have it?

Li Yunxing took it and spread out the scroll.

It was actually new ink, apparently recently drawn.

"You drew it yourself?" Li Yunxing asked.

"Yes, the folk girl has lived on the river since she was a child, and has traveled many times with the fleet, and the accuracy of this river transportation map is ten times more accurate than the rumors in the market, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not believe it, even send someone to the river bank to investigate."

"Oh?"

Seeing that the prince seemed suspicious, Shu Qingling hurriedly added, "Although the folk girl is not good at learning, but the painting is not bad, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not at ease, you can inspect the goods first, and when the fleet returns, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can visit the field in person." ”

Li Yunxing put away the river transport map and snorted coldly, "Are you really not playing tricks? ”

"How dare the people deceive His Royal Highness the Prince."

In fact, the other party does not need to promise, Li Yunxing already knows just by looking at this picture that this river transportation map is real.

Not only are the counties and counties along the river marked, but even the dangerous places are additionally marked.

Such a river transport map, there is not even a post house in the government.

"Miss Shu is really smart."

Although Li Yunxing said this, his tone did not have the slightest approval.

Shu Qingling's heart sank.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the people know that the people promised you the right to cross the river before, and now the people have presented the river transportation map, not so simple."

Li Yunxing looked at the two of them condescendingly.

This Shu Qingling really has a bit of brains.

If she didn't say what she said just now, then Li Yunxing would get the river transportation map, and after going out, she would ask the embroidered guards to send the two sisters to Huangquan together.

The reason why river maps are precious is because there is no one in the world who can draw them.

But it only took Shu Qingling a few days to draw a complete map of the Wu Dynasty's river transportation.

Keeping her down will only increase the risk.

Wipe her out, and this river map will have the value of existence.

Li Yunxing's mind was full of thoughts, but he didn't show any different color on his face.

"How are you going to get back the right to transport the river?"

Shu Qingling raised his eyes and looked at Li Yunxing.

"Please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to borrow 100,000 taels of silver from the people's daughter."

Shu Qingling was wearing linen clothes and coarse cloth, but she couldn't hide her determined expression at this time.

It's completely different from before.

Shu Qingling, who has undergone major changes, has become like a spring orchid on the cliff.

In the darkness under the tempering, the faint fragrance wafted from the cliff one day, and I knew that the orchid overlooking the beauty of the deep valley was blooming alone.

However, this is not a reason for Li Yunxing to send her money in vain.

"One hundred thousand taels of silver? Oh, what a big appetite, just rely on this river map? Do you think it's worth 100,000 taels of silver? ”

"The people's daughter doesn't want money, but wants the help of His Royal Highness the Prince."

Li Yunxing raised his eyebrows, "What can you do?" ”

"The people want to form a fleet and establish a private fleet. Undertake all kinds of maritime trade and commercial transportation in the territory of the Wu Dynasty. ”

Li Yunxing's face turned gloomy after hearing this.

"Why does Hongu believe you?"

Shu Qingling lowered his head and said sincerely, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, please believe me. Whether you can earn it or not, it all depends on the judgment of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. One hundred thousand taels of silver was not a large amount for the crown prince. But if you don't give it a try, how does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince know that it won't succeed. ”

"You have a good calculation, and it is all counted on the head of this palace!"

"The folk girl can prove my sincerity, and ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to give me three months."

Li Yunxing stared at her for a moment, and suddenly sneered.

"Okay, just three months! After three months, you are to return one million taels of silver to the palace with interest. ”

"The people obeyed."

After Li Yunxing left, Shu Qingling breathed a sigh of relief.

Next, she must prove to Li Yunxing that she has enough use value.
