"Boy from the Liu family, you have asked the questions you want to ask, and I have said everything I should say. In this case, can you take out some useful information and let me take a look at it and let me see how it is? I hope you won't Let me down."
Liu Mingzhi stood up and straightened his body. His temperament was not as lazy as before, but rather had the connotation of writing words that pointed out the country and promoted the country.
"Since the Duolu tribe is asking for a reward, our Dragon Dynasty is a big country. Since it is a big country, it must have the demeanor of a big country. Isn't it just a small leader of a tribe who wants to ask for a reward? How can we, as a celestial country, even do this? No grace at all."
Li Zheng looked at Liu Mingzhi strangely: "It's exactly what you said just now. The award of Ashina Chu will definitely become a serious problem for our Dragon Dynasty sooner or later."
Liu Mingzhi nodded matter-of-factly: "Yes, low-level rewards will naturally cause endless troubles, but high-level rewards will not only cause no worries about future troubles, but will instead cause various tribes in the grassland to fall into disputes and have no time to take care of themselves, let alone become our great leader." The Dragon Dynasty’s henchmen are in serious trouble.”
Wen Renzheng lived up to his depressed state just now: "Boy, what is a low-level reward and what is a high-level reward? I am very curious about why you are so confident that a high-level reward will achieve unexpected results."
Why are you so confident? Because of love... Bah, because history can prove how terrifying the grace order is, and history can even prove people's desire, desire for power, and desire for wealth.
"The lower-level reward naturally agrees directly with the reward of the Dulu tribe. As for the upper-level reward! It is not difficult to say, it is not easy to say it is easy, but there is a very important prerequisite. The leader of the Dulu tribe cannot have too few heirs, otherwise he will be promoted to the top. Waiting for a reward is difficult to achieve. The result is..."
"Young man from the Liu family, stop being so pretentious and talk about your superior reward."
Liu Mingzhi suddenly sat down: "Sir, may I ask how many heirs Chief Ashina Chu has?"
Li Zheng thought about it for a while: "They should be three sons and two daughters. Does this have anything to do with your superior reward?"
"Of course there is a relationship, and the relationship is quite big. It should be said that it is an indispensable key to high-level rewards. As long as we have this, everything will be easy to handle. All we need is..."
Wenren Yunshu listened with rapt attention, and when he saw Liu Mingzhi suddenly stopped, he became a little unhappy: "Brother Liu, just hurry up and say it."
Liu Mingzhi looked at Li Zheng quietly and smiled: "I have already shown half of my goods to you. I wonder if you can let me see my deposit. Otherwise, my goods will be too worthless."
Li Zheng looked shocked. He didn't expect Liu Mingzhi to actually propose the idea of settling the money at this time. Li Zheng had no such idea at all. Everything was just an excuse to force Liu Mingzhi.
Of course Liu Mingzhi was climbing along the pole. Liu Mingzhi would naturally not feel comfortable being forced like this by Li Zheng before. However, Li Zheng's identity was definitely not simple. There was no way to discuss opinions directly. He would make up for it in his heart by taking a roundabout way to get some benefits. .
Li Zheng pursed his lips: "What kind of deposit do you want?"
Liu Mingzhi stretched out his right hand, spread his fingers and looked at Li Zheng blankly, indicating five hundred taels of silver.
Li Zheng looked at Liu Mingzhi's palm blindly, and he really didn't understand what Liu Mingzhi meant by extending his five fingers.
"Young man from the Liu family, what do you mean?"
"Five hundred taels, this is the deposit. After seeing all the goods, the money and goods will be settled, and then I will pay another five hundred taels. I think this deal is a good deal for you sir."
Li Zheng looked at Liu Mingzhi in disbelief. He didn't expect that he actually made such a request, and he didn't react for a moment.
The old man standing behind Li Zheng scolded with raised eyebrows: "You are so bold, you dare to ask..."
"Shut up and pay Mr. Liu a deposit. As for business, it should be a fair transaction. Money and goods should be paid in full. We don't owe each other any favors or anything. That's good."
The old man glanced at his master in embarrassment, leaned forward and muttered: "Master, we came out with only three hundred taels of silver, which is not even enough for this guy's deposit. From the old slave's point of view, it is not as good as..."
Li Zheng raised his hand to stop the old man, and chuckled at Liu Mingzhi: "Boy from the Liu family, I came out with my slave in a hurry and didn't bring that much silver with me. What do you think I do with this as a mortgage for a thousand taels of silver?"
After speaking, he took off a gold medal from his waist and placed it on the tea table, motioning to Liu Mingzhi to take it and take a look.
Wen Renzheng looked at Li Zheng taking off the gold medal he wanted to give to Liu Mingzhi from his waist, and his face was full of disbelief. Li Zheng actually mortgaged the gold medal to Liu Mingzhi as a deposit.
Qi Yun glanced at the gold medal curiously, and then showed an expression that was true. Then she looked at Li Zheng, whose expression showed respect.
Liu Mingzhi casually picked up the gold medal on the table to support the weight. It was very heavy and solid, and then casually threw it on the table and looked at Li Zheng in confusion: "Golden?"
Li Zheng nodded noncommittally.
"No, this gold medal can only be worth a dozen taels at most. It's like a piece of gold because of the intricate carvings on it. It would only cost five or six hundred taels of silver if converted into gold. This is just a deposit at best. You want to use it as payment? It’s a bit too dark-hearted.”
Wen Renzheng Qi Yun looked at Liu Mingzhi who looked dissatisfied in horror, lowered his head and did not dare to speak.
The old man pointed at Liu Mingzhi angrily, trembling with anger: "You...you...you are so brave, how dare you..."
"Back off."
Li Zheng looked at Liu Mingzhi with interest: "Then in your opinion, what should we do?"
Liu Mingzhi looked around Li Zheng for a few times, then raised his hand and pointed at the jade ring on Li Zheng's hand: "I think your ring is of good quality and the jade is transparent. It should be worth a few hundred taels of silver. Why don't you use it as a mortgage?" .”
The old man behind Li Zheng trembled involuntarily and stared at Liu Mingzhi fiercely.
Li Zheng first glanced at the ring on his thumb reluctantly, then took it off and held it in his hand: "After you hand over the goods, it's yours."
"A gentleman's word?"
"It's hard to chase a horse."
"Since Ashina Chu sent envoys to Beijing to ask for the title, we must not be arrogant. Not only do we want to grant the title, but we also want to grant a large number of special titles. How grand and how to reward. Not only the Dulu tribe, but also the Shibi tribe. Ah If Shi Nachu is granted the title of king, his descendants will also be granted the title of king to show our great dragon dynasty's favor and respect for all the tribes in the grassland."
Li Zheng was a little confused about the meaning of Liu Mingzhi's words at first. After listening to it, he felt a little enlightened but couldn't figure it out.
Liu Mingzhi supported Li Zheng and said: "Not only do we need to make Ashina Chu's three sons king, we also need to grant them lands. As for how to grant them, what title to grant them, and how much land they grant, it is none of my business."
Li Zheng closed his eyes and meditated for a while, then suddenly opened his eyes. He looked at Liu Mingzhi with a strange light in his eyes. After a while, he said a word: "Tell me the favor, push the favor. You boy is so cruel-hearted."
Wen Renzheng looked at Liu Mingzhi with his mouth slightly open, and finally said: "Expressing the order of kindness is a heart-breaking strategy."
Only Qi Yun and Wenren Yunshu looked at the three people playing riddles with confusion and did not understand what they meant.
Liu Mingzhi picked up the tea cup in front of him and took a sip of tea: "Sir, are you good enough? Is the transaction of one thousand taels of silver worth it?"
Li Zheng put the jade ring in his hand next to the gold medal and pushed it in front of Liu Mingzhi: "It's worth not only a thousand taels, but a hundred thousand taels. They are yours."
Liu Mingzhi casually put the jade ring on his thumb, smiled proudly at Li Zheng and said, "The size is just right. Thanks, Boss Li."
The old man leaned into Li Zheng's ear and whispered: "Master, it's getting late, we should go back."
Li Zheng nodded and clapped his hands: "Liu Mingzhi, I will rush back to the capital soon and plan to invite you to visit the capital. What do you think?"
Liu Mingzhi put the gold medal in his arms: "Thank you sir for your kindness. I'm used to being lazy. The capital is not far from Jinling, so I might as well forget it."
Li Zheng nodded disappointedly: "In that case, I won't force it. Liu Mingzhi, will you participate in this year's Qiuwei?"
"Maybe, maybe not. I don't dare to make any conclusions."
Li Zheng stood up and said to Wen Renzheng: "Teacher, the student has to say goodbye. There are many things going on in the court. The student does not dare to stay in Jinling for too long. I will come back to pay homage to my teacher at my leisure someday."
"Take care along the way."
Li Zheng stood up and said, "Young man from the Liu family, if you come to the capital someday, take your gold medal and go to my house to have a look. I have a lot of good wine and food there."
"If I have the chance, I will definitely go to my husband's house to make trouble. I wonder what the address is?"
Li Zheng gave a weird smile: "The biggest one in the capital, farewell."
Watching Li Zheng and the two go away, Liu Mingzhi looked envious: "There are such big houses in the capital, where is Qian Yin?"
But the biggest one won't be... Liu Mingzhi shook his head!
"Brother Qi Liang, you invited me to drink yesterday. I'll exchange the gold medal for silver notes later. Brother, I'll treat you to food, drinks and gambling." Liu Mingzhi laughed loudly.
Li Zheng, who had not yet gone far, paused and his face turned dark.
"Oh, I'm afraid I'll expose Tianyou!"
