Hearing the change in Luo Zhang's words, the housekeeper's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly walked out to smooth things over and said, "Master Luo, if you have something to say or something to discuss, two thousand taels of gold is really too much. How about we discuss it further?"
"What is there to discuss with him? Since he wants to leave, let him go. I, Changsun Chong, have never been threatened by anyone in my life. If he has any means, just come and I, Changsun Chong, will take over!" Changsun Chong didn't care at all! Don't give the housekeeper face.
Chang Sun Chong's words made the housekeeper look a little ugly, but he was a young master and he couldn't get angry with him, so he had to patiently walk to Chang Sun Chong and explain to him carefully and patiently in his ear.
After listening to the butler's explanation, Changsun Chong's expression changed. He was really carried away by Luo Zhang's words just now. He was so angry that he didn't think much about these twists and turns. But after the butler's explanation, he understood. Suddenly, everything was understood. He also knew the reason why Luo Zhang dared to come here, and his original anger was extinguished instantly.
He turned to look at the somewhat angry Luo Zhang and said, "Two thousand taels of gold is impossible. I'll give you one thousand taels of gold at most!"
Seeing that Changsun Chong finally returned to normal, Luo Zhang was relieved. He didn't want to conflict with Changsun Chong now. If he wanted to solve their problems, Luo Zhang had already chosen a place, that is, the martial arts competition, where he would solve the problem. The feud between them.
"Is one thousand gold coins worthy of the status of your eldest grandson's family? I said two thousand gold coins for the sake of your eldest grandson's family's reputation. You must know that the old dog of the Yan family gave me one thousand gold coins, and your eldest grandson's family also gave me one thousand gold coins. , don’t you think you’ve lost your status?” Luo Zhang said mockingly.
Hearing that Luo Zhang actually asked for money from the Yan family, Changsun Chong was not angry this time, but admired Luo Zhang's shamelessness, shamelessness and shamelessness. This kind of person is simply a scoundrel, no wonder Who says someone is from a humble business background and only cares about money? This is probably the only success this kind of person will achieve in the future!
Thinking of this, Changsun Chong felt a lot more comfortable. To him, money was nothing but an external possession. His eldest son's family had a big business, and two thousand gold was just a drop in the bucket to them. He said he would give Luo Zhang one thousand because he didn't want Luo Zhang to feel better. , I just don’t want Luo Zhang to lead the way.
He winked at the butler, who immediately understood and trotted out of the house. After a while, he ran back again, holding a tray in his hand. Judging from the effort, the tray was not light.
"Take this, this is a reward from the uncle. If you have no food in the future, come to Changsun's house. I will give you a bowl of dog rice regardless of previous grudges!" Changsun Chong took the tray and threw it on the ground. , the gold cakes in the tray instantly scattered all over the floor.
Luo Zhang rolled his eyes, wanting to insult labor and management like this? Your eldest son, Sun Chong, is a little too young!
I would rather you insult me more than once.
Isn’t the money that fell on the floor money? Of course it was money. Luo Zhang didn't care about face. He squatted down and picked up the money. He only hated that there was too little money on the ground.
Seeing Luo Zhang picking up the gold cakes piece by piece, Changsun Chong couldn't help laughing. He felt so happy in his heart. If he had known that Luo Zhang wanted money, why would he be so angry? Take money to humiliate Luo Zhang.
After picking up the two thousand pieces of gold, Luo Zhang gave his eldest grandson a meaningful smile, turned around and left without staying for a moment.
After walking out of Changsun Mansion, Luo Zhang took out a piece of gold cake and took a bite in his mouth. It was real gold, and the gold cake had one of his teeth marks on it.
Counting the two thousand gold from the Changsun family, his harvest in this trip was finally complete, with a full harvest of 3,600 gold, which is 360,000 taels of silver. After all, half of the money for the construction of the dock has been raised. .
According to the budget that the master craftsman gave him, if he wanted to follow his requirements, it would be a bottomless pit.
What Luo Zhang wants to build is not as simple as a dock, but a town. There must be not only a market, a warehouse, a restaurant, but also various shops. Luo Zhang even needs to build four walls around it, and three city walls. There is a city gate, and the gateless one on the other side is the pier close to the shore. Just this, the craftsman needs 600,000 taels of silver at the low end, and he doesn't know how much it costs at the high end.
Riding the horse, Luo Zhang headed towards Luofu happily. This day was a happy day and a day full of rewards. Even after returning to Luofu, the smile on Luo Zhang's lips did not disappear.
Of course, as soon as he returned to Luofu, he went straight into his house and collected the 3,600 taels of gold. Grandma couldn't find the money, otherwise she would definitely take it away. It’s a beautiful name, reserved for when you marry a princess.
Every time grandma said this, Luo Zhang was speechless. Why did he need so much money to marry the princess? You know, the gold that grandma took from him was at least a few hundred taels. In other words, There are tens of thousands of taels of silver left. Although this is nothing to the Changsun family, it is a huge sum of money to the Luo family.
Besides, isn’t marrying a princess always a dowry? When does the man have to pay for it?
He had only heard that it would be embarrassing if the princess's dowry was too small, but he had never heard that it would be embarrassing if the man's contribution was too small.
You know, the marriage of a princess represents the face of the royal family. A small dowry means that the royal family is poor. Do you think the royal family will be poor? Will it make you look poor?
The answer is naturally no, so on the day the princess gets married, the dowry is extremely generous, so there is no need to prepare money to marry the princess, and I don’t know what grandma is doing.
However, Luo Zhang didn't bother to pay much attention to what grandma said and did. Grandma also had good intentions, so let her do the trouble. Anyway, with only tens of thousands of taels of silver, Luo Zhang could still afford it.
As soon as the gold was hidden, Mei Niang walked in. When she saw Luo Zhang, she couldn't help but screamed, then stepped back, pointing at Luo Zhang, with a horrified expression on her face.
Luo Zhang couldn't figure out what was wrong with Mei Niang. He followed the direction of her fingers and found that the little guy who had been sleeping in his arms had climbed out and was standing on his shoulder combing himself. hair.
Seeing the little guy, Luo Zhang realized what Mei Niang was afraid of.
He waved to Mei Niang and said, "Come here and introduce a little guy to you. Don't be afraid. This little guy is very cute and harmless!"
Although Mei Niang was still afraid, she saw that the little thing didn't do anything out of the ordinary on Luo Zhang. Coupled with Luo Zhang's words, Mei Niang relaxed a little and slowly approached Luo Zhang.
As soon as she walked in and took a look, Mei Niang's eyes lit up. Nothing more than this little guy is so cute and beautiful. The white hair, big shiny eyes, and big fluffy tail are all girls like. What's more, What's more, Mei Niang is only fourteen years old and has almost no resistance to such cute little animals.
Just as he was about to reach out and touch the little guy, he saw that the little guy who was combing his hair quietly suddenly stopped and bared his teeth at Mei Niang, and the hair all over his body suddenly exploded, like a hedgehog.
This sudden scene startled Mei Niang, and she jumped to the side again screaming, with tears in her eyes, looking aggrieved and crying.
Luo Zhang was also stunned. This little guy was fine when he saw Li Junxian. How could he be so hostile when he saw Mei Niang?
Luo Zhang reached out and hammered a chestnut on the little guy's head and said: "Are you trying to rebel? This is your mistress, how dare you show your teeth to her? I think you are impatient with life. If you do this again Just get out of here, labor and management, and don’t even think about eating the delicious food I made for you in the future!”
As he spoke, Luo Zhang pretended to throw it away, grabbed his soft flesh, and lifted it up.
"Chi chi chi chi, chi chi chi chi..."
The little thing was also startled by Luo Zhang's actions. He struggled and swayed in the air, trying to get rid of Luo Zhang's big hand. Luo Zhang was not a charming girl and would be frightened by it.
According to what Li Junxian said, this is just a cub, not an adult. It is just faster now and is not a threat at all. When it reaches adulthood, it will have a pair of sharp claws that can break gold and stone, but even if it wants to break gold Cracking rocks, this sharp claw still needs to be trained, so Luo Zhang doesn't care about this little thing at all now.
Seeing that he couldn't free himself from Luo Zhang's restraints, the little guy's big eyes seemed to be filled with tears. He pretended to be pitiful and even raised his hands to Luo Zhang. No one would believe it if he said it was an animal. , this horse can beg for mercy and act cute, but still an animal? Has anyone ever seen an animal begging for mercy and acting cute?
Seeing the cute look of the little guy, Mei Niang's heart instantly softened and she was no longer afraid. She hurriedly stepped forward, snatched it from Luo Zhang's hand, held it in her arms, and stroked its The snow-white hair said: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, my husband is just trying to scare you, he won't throw you away!"
This time, the little guy didn't show any hostility toward Mei Niang, but looked like he was enjoying it. It seemed that Mei Niang's touch made him feel very comfortable.
But Luo Zhang discovered something different. He found that this little guy's little head was very dishonest. He was actually arching his head in places he shouldn't have. That place was a place he had never touched!
