Yi Dan served the meal and saw that it was similar to yesterday's dish.

Yi Dan couldn't help but ask, "Lord Fu, may I ask Lord Zhao's dishes, why are they almost the same every day?"

Fu Lin hurriedly explained: "Xiangye likes to eat these dishes, so I make them every day." Don't ask so much, hurry up and serve it and come with me, otherwise the food will be cold in a while. ”

Yi Dan had no choice but to serve the food, followed behind Fu Lin, and delivered the meal to Zhao Guangyi together.

At this moment, Zhao Guangyi was holding a notebook, still thinking carefully about whether to present Li Yinheng's self-respect for raising bandits to the Southern Han Emperor.

He looked at the music on the table, and couldn't make up his mind after thinking about it. At this time, Fu Lin came with Yi Dan and came to the door of the room.

"Knock Knock"

"Xiangye, it's time for lunch, please eat first. Fu Lin said.

Zhao Guangyi put the open music aside and said, "Okay, bring all the food in." ”

As always, Yi Dan served rice and soup for Zhao Guangyi, and Zhao Guangyi also praised Yi Dan's ingenuity.

At this time, Fu Lin glanced at the music on the table with his spare eyes, and after seeing the content of the music clearly, he said quietly: "Xiangye, you have eaten and drunk enough, and I won't bother you." After that, he turned his face to Yi Dan and said, "Let's all step down, don't delay Xiangye's business." ”

Yi Dan put away the dishes and followed Fu Lin out of Zhao Guangyi's room.

After Fu Lin returned to the room, he hurriedly wrote a small note with a pen and paper, took it to the dining room and stuffed it into a piece of lean pork, and personally carried this piece of pork to the dining room, and said to a miscellaneous guy: "Why is this pork so thin, not suitable for bacon." Take it back and let them change to a fatter one. ”

The people under his command had no choice but to return the pork to the pork shop, and after a while, the note in this piece of pork fell into Tang Liansheng's hands.

Tang Liansheng sat in the main hall of Yongyizhuang, opened the note and saw that it read: "Zhao wants to impeach Li Yinheng for raising bandits for self-respect"

Tang Liansheng took the note and said to Weiguang Zheng on the side: "You hurry up and tell the people under Li Yinheng that Zhao Guangyi already knows about him, and now he is preparing to play the emperor and let him prepare more." ”

"Yes, my subordinates will do it. After Zheng agreed, he left immediately.

Now. In the luxury private room of the most prosperous and lively Fuju Restaurant in the city. Zhang Taoguo's son, Zhang Qianmei, has already introduced his father into the house to take a seat.

The guy from the restaurant came over and asked, "May I ask a few guest officers, what kind of dishes do you order?"

Zhang Taoguo said: "You bring me a stir-fried bacon with capers and bracken, fried lamb liver with shredded ginger, fried salted fish, spinach mixed with tofu, red bean soup, put more shredded ginger and peppercorns, and make the taste of Shuzhong cuisine, let's serve these dishes first." (Before the Ming Dynasty, Eurasia did not have the peppers and other crops that were introduced from the Americas after the great geographical discoveries.) The spicy at this time refers to ginger and garlic, etc. οΌ‰

"Okay. No problem, please wait a while, a few guest officers. After that, Xiao Er left the private room.

After a while, a Persian merchant of thirty-seven or eighteen years old walked in with two retinues. One of the attendants held a narrow-mouthed bottle with a blue glaze, which looked very exotic.

Zhang Qianmei, the son of Zhang Taoguo, hurriedly stood up and introduced: "Dad, this is Mr. Naham, the largest Persian merchant in Guangzhou. ”

Zhang Taoguo also stood up. He bowed his hand to Naham, saying, "Mr. Naham, I have long admired my name. ”

The Persian merchant took off his hat and returned the salute in Tang Chinese: "Hello Lord Zhang." You are the housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion of the Southern Han Dynasty, the father of Mr. Qianmei?"

Zhang Taoguo said: "That's right, I heard from the dog, he has always had business dealings with Mr. Naham, I didn't expect us to meet for so long, it's really late to see each other." ”

Naham: "I've been running back and forth between Guangzhou and Persia all the time. I am very grateful to you and your son, Mr. Qianmei, for their trust in me! I heard your son say that sometimes even the prime minister has to listen to your opinions, so we will have more contacts in the future. ”

"It should be, it should be. Actually, Mr. Naham, I have asked you here today to discuss something with you. After Zhang Taoguo's greetings, he got back to business.

Nahamu sat down and asked, "What is the matter?"

Zhang Taoguo also sat at the round table and said: "Actually, I am not what you said in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Our prime minister is a very rigid person, and I don't want to stay in the house any longer. ”

Nahammu asked curiously, "Mr. Zhang, you don't want to be a housekeeper in the Prime Minister's Mansion anymore?"

"I'm here for this today, I wonder if you can ask my brother to do me a favor and bring our father and son to Persia?" asked Zhang Taoguo.

Nahamu hesitated for a moment and said, "You are from here, why did you go to Persia?"

"It's good here, but I'm afraid it's not good if I stay for a long time. Zhang Taoguo said.

"What does that mean? I don't understand. Nahamu asked.

Zhang Taoguo hurriedly said: "Now the prime minister is already investigating the matter of the last batch of Persian carpets. Some people say our price,. Several times more expensive than Persian carpets on the market, there must be something wrong. ”

Nahammu also said a little nervously: "So, what should we do?"

Zhang Qianmei also asked: "Yes, Dad, we and Mr. Nahamu have taken a lot of benefits from the carpets we bought for the imperial court last time." If the Prime Minister had known, we and Mr. Nahamou might have been killed. ”

Nahamu hurriedly asked, "Is it so serious?"

Zhang Taoguo said: "Of course, since the rebellion of the merchants, the imperial court has been keeping a close eye on overseas merchants. In addition, the current prime minister Zhao Guangyi, he is an old-fashioned and ruthless person, if he is in his hands, it is his own father, I am afraid he will not show mercy. ”

Nahammu hesitated and said, "So, how should this be?"

Zhang Taoguo is discussing things with Persian Fans. At this time, Li Xiong and Kou Fei came to Fuju Restaurant. The two quietly found the room where Zhang Taoguo's father and son were talking with the Persians, Kou Fei leaned on the door and secretly looked inside, and sure enough, Zhang Taoguo's father and son were inside.

Li Xiong asked Kou Fei with a wink, and Kou Fei nodded lightly in confirmation.

Li Xiong took out a dagger from his arms and was about to break in to assassinate Zhang Taoguo. At this time, the two of them only heard inside the private room outside the door. The peach country said to the Persian Naham: "Mr. Naham, we can't do anything now, so I don't want you to think of a way to get our father and son to Persia." ”

"What should we do about such a big thing, and what if your prime minister knows about it?" asked Naham.

Zhang Taoguo said: "Don't worry, I will find a way to do this." After we left, we had two dead bodies make the illusion that we had all been burned in an accident, and that the dead bodies were burned beyond recognition anyway. No one recognizes it. That way we can all sit back and relax. ”

Nahamu asked, "Are you sure that you can get through this way?"

Zhang Taoguo said: "Of course, there have been many officials before, and they have all done this. They all took all their possessions with them, and went to Persia, and even to the farther West Pole countries, and now they don't know how happy they are. ”

Nahammu heard Zhang Taoguo say that he would bring all his possessions to Persia. So he became interested and asked, "May I ask Mr. Zhang, do you want to bring all your money to Persia too?"

"Of course, I'll never come back anyway. Do you still stay and cheapen others?" Zhang Taoguo said.

Nahammu asked, "So, how much money do you have?"

Zhang Taoguo thought for a while and replied, "There are about 600,000 taels of silver. ”

Zhang Qianmei continued to add: "I still have 300,000 taels, and I will bring them all together." ”

Zhang Taoguo said: "That's right, I hurriedly put the fields and real estate in my hometown these days. Dispose of them all, and there may be more than 100,000 taels, so that the total is one million taels. ”

Nahammu asked in surprise, "Mr. Zhang." You are the butler of the Prime Minister's Mansion, why do you have so much silver? It is incredible that you make more money than you make as a merchant's son. ”

Zhang Taoguo said: "Hey, since we have talked about this, we are people in the same boat, and I won't hide it from you, in the past two years, the officials under Zhao Guangyi have basically been recommended by me, and this introduction fee is also collected according to the official rank." ”

Nahammu asked in disbelief: "Are you saying that the officials under the prime minister were all recommended by you after receiving money? Aren't you afraid that the prime minister is so easy to deceive the country and the people?"

Zhang Taoguo hurriedly said: "Our prime minister's ability to observe and appoint people is still very powerful, and if he is not capable, it is difficult to be appointed by him." So I also have to check first, if you don't have the ability, I won't accept more money, so that the risk is reduced a lot, and there will be no problems. ”

Nahamu suddenly realized: "I understand, I see. ”

Zhang Taoguo said: "Yes, that's probably it." Please also ask Mr. Nahamou to help us father and son figure out a way. ”

After thinking for a while, Nahamu said: "It's really hard to come up with such a large amount of money. Your eastern land is rich in products, silk, porcelain, tea, salt, iron, money, and grain, and there is no shortage of anything. What do you have to buy to spend so much money? It's not an easy matter. ”

Zhang Taoguo said anxiously: "Please also ask Mr. Nahamu to help us think of a way." ”

Nahamu thought for a moment and said, "If I help you get so much money out, then I will take a big risk." Merchants, you can't afford to be early..."

Zhang Taoguo understood what Nahammu meant, he wanted to get some benefits, so he said: "Well, if this matter is really successful, the money we bring out will be divided into ninety-one, what do you think?"

Nahamu said, "No, I want eighty-two." ”

Zhang Taoguo thought for a while and said: "Okay, eighty-two, just eighty-two, as long as it succeeds, I will divide you into two." ”

"It's me eight, you two. Naham said.

Zhang Qianmei said angrily: "You are taking advantage of the fire to rob." ”

Nahammu took a sip of tea and said unhurriedly: "I'm sorry two, I'm a merchant, and I'm a businessman, if you really go to Persia, I have to arrange and take care of everything for you, all of which need money." If you don't want to, then find someone else. But I am the most trusted merchant of the King of Persia, and I am sure you will not find a second more suitable person than me. ”

When Zhang Taoguo heard this, he stretched out his hand to stop his son Zhang Qianmei. Then he continued to say to Naham: "Mr. Naham, if my father and son really succeed in reaching Persia, we will all listen to you. ”

Nahamu said satisfied: "Well, that's right, deal." ”

At this time, Li Xiong and Kou Fei, who were preparing to assassinate outside the door, also felt incredible after listening to these conversations. They didn't expect the housekeeper Zhang Taoguo to be greedy for so much money privately. What he didn't expect was that he still wanted to abscond with the money.

Li Xiong didn't rush to start, and continued to listen to what they would say.

At this time, Nahamu asked his entourage to hand over the narrow-necked blue-glazed bottle, poured a few glasses of wine from the bottle, and said, "Come, let's have a few drinks first." ”

Zhang Taoguo saw that the color of the blue glazed porcelain vase was very good-looking, and asked casually: "May I ask Mr. Naham, you brought this green vase from Persia, right?"

"That's right, this is a porcelain vase that we Persians fired themselves, specially for wine. Although we don't burn porcelain as well as you Orientals, but our green glaze is something you don't have in the East, how can it look good?" Nahamu said proudly, holding the Persian glazed porcelain wine bottle.

"Well, it's good, it's beautiful, it's like the eyes of a Persian cat. Zhang Taoguo said.

At this time, Zhang Qianmei suddenly remembered something and said, "Dad, I have a way." ”

Zhang Taoguo asked, "What can you do?"

Zhang Qianmei said: "We can find a few businessmen and ask them to help them go to Persia to buy this kind of green glaze raw materials, and say that they will take back our own green glazed porcelain bottles to burn paper, and they will come forward, and we will pay for it, so that we will not spend the money? ”

Zhang Taoguo said: "Well, I think this method is good, may I ask Mr. Naham, do you think this is feasible?"

Nahamu said: "This is a good idea, but what if those merchants come to Persia and really want to buy our green glaze?

Zhang Taoguo thought for a while and said, "I'll pay for it." ”

Nahamu said: "No, the money is ours and cannot be spent." ”

Zhang Qianmei said: "Then I'll let them bring some more money by themselves." ”

Naham said: "Well, that's pretty much it. ”
