The next second, Bai Qingwen asked loudly in disbelief: "He knows?!"
I still knew it a long time ago!
That……
"You were lying to us before!" Bai Qingwen glared at Kang Cheng with burning eyes.
He clearly remembered that Kang Cheng told him last time that Chu Ze didn't know there was a private relationship between them.
At best, I'm a little skeptical.
At that time, he told Kang Cheng to stay away for a while and not to come looking for him if it was no big deal. When he has raised enough money, he will naturally hand it over to him.
Kang Cheng did exactly this during this period.
As a result, Kang Cheng now told him that Chu Ze had known about it for a long time.
Bai Qingwen's heart was filled with fire.
He strode up to Kang Cheng and shouted at him angrily: "Kang Cheng! Why didn't you tell us about such an important thing earlier! Do you want to kill us?"
Kang Cheng raised his eyelids and looked at him.
"Why are you anxious?" Kang Cheng's tone was calm and calm, as if this was not a major event worth mentioning.
For him, it is indeed not a big deal.
If it were before, Kang Cheng might still be afraid.
But now, Kang Cheng is not afraid at all.
Bai Qingwen was already on the same boat with him. It would not be so easy for him to get off the boat now.
So he had no fear.
Not even taking it seriously.
But for Bai Qingwen, this was a devastating event.
"Why don't you tell us to be anxious? Don't you know that if this matter is revealed, our whole family will die!" Bai Qingwen was so anxious that his forehead began to sweat.
But Kang Cheng didn't care.
Hearing Bai Qingwen's complaint, Kang Cheng said: "What are you afraid of? You helped me. There is no way I will leave you alone."
"Then what do you do?"
Bai Qingwen looked at him displeased.
"Although we are not members of the same country, it does not mean that we cannot be members of the same country." Kang Cheng raised his head, his dark eyes filled with confusion. He looked at Bai Qingwen and said, "As long as you are willing, I can Connect your whole family to Ryukyu. If you help me now, you are also helping Ryukyu. It is a certainty that we will win this bet. When I get the blueprint, you will be my great hero and feudal lord in Ryukyu. It's no problem to worship the prime minister, wouldn't it be happier than being a businessman?"
Kang Cheng saw the longing in Bai Qingwen's eyes, and he knew that his words had touched Bai Qingwen's itch.
Kang Cheng continued: "Of course, if you are willing to continue to be a businessman, then I can also recommend you to our Majesty to be our only imperial merchant in Ryukyu. From now on, all the items in the palace will be handed over to you for purchase. This can If you don’t mind how much money it is, I guess you don’t need me to calculate it for you.”
The smile on Bai Qingwen's face grew bigger and bigger.
Royal merchant.
It is said that among the things used by the emperor, they are the most profitable.
As long as he can be an imperial merchant, then the Bai family will have a golden job.
As for the title of marquis and prime minister, I don't care if he doesn't exist. It's naturally better to have him.
No matter what, his life will be a hundred or a thousand times better than now!
Bai Qingwen said it was a lie if he said he didn't yearn for it.
"But can you really guarantee it?" Bai Qingwen was still worried.
Kang Cheng said: "I can swear an oath. If you still don't believe it, I can also write a contract, or I can make secret arrangements for you now so that your family can gradually move to Ryukyu."
Since Kang Cheng can say this, he will definitely not break his promise.
Moreover, he still holds the money in his own hands.
But after all, they didn't have much interaction. Bai Qingwen believed in him, but couldn't believe him completely.
He thought for a moment and said, "Then you can arrange for our family to come there now."
Kang Cheng sneered in his heart and nodded: "Okay. When is convenient for you, I'll make arrangements for how many people are going to go. Once the arrangements are made, I will make arrangements for you immediately."
"OK."
When this was decided, Bai Qingwen, who was furious just now, suddenly beamed.
He sat down next to Kang Cheng and asked Kang Cheng's purpose of coming.
Speaking of this, Kang Cheng's face instantly became serious.
He looked at Bai Qingwen and said solemnly: "Chu Ze's money will be collected soon."
Bai Qingwen: "!!"
"This...where does his money come from?" Bai Qingwen wondered, "Isn't he from Yingtian? Is it possible that we can make friends with people richer than us here?"
This is impossible!
His Bai family is the most blessed in the local area.
When it comes to money, he, Bai Qingwen, would say second, and absolutely no one would dare to say first.
So where did Chu Ze get so much money?
Bai Qingwen thought for a while, slapped the table, and said angrily: "Isn't this person the one who transferred money from Yingtian?"
Yes, that's right, it definitely is.
Didn't His Highness the Fourth Prince come here a few days ago? He must have brought it to Chu Ze! "
Originally, he was going to tell Bai Qingwen about Zhu Ping, but when he heard what Bai Qingwen said, Kang Cheng felt that he was right.
They are princes. If they want to transfer hundreds of thousands of taels, isn't it easy?
Then Zhu Ping's whereabouts during this period of time seemed less important.
It doesn't matter whether you say it or not.
But the question is, since Chu Ze has money, why doesn't he take it out?
Do you just want to come out again when you are close to success?
Based on Kang Cheng's understanding of Chu Ze, he felt that this was something Chu Ze could do.
It seemed that he had to think of a way to catch Chu Ze by surprise.
Kang Cheng said: "I came to you today. In addition to telling you this matter, there is one more thing."
"What's the matter?" Bai Qingwen swallowed silently. He looked at Kang Cheng nervously, fearing that Kang Cheng would say something unexpected again.
Kang Cheng said: "Chu Ze already knows how much money you have raised."
"..." Bai Qingwen's eyes twitched hard several times.
It is really a good spirit that does not work but a bad spirit. The more you are afraid of something, the more it will come to you.
Bai Qingwen's whole body felt bad.
He stood up and walked around the room irritably: "How is this possible!" He had never told anyone about this. Apart from him, the only ones who knew about it were Lao Feng and Kang Cheng.
Where did Chu Ze know this? !
It was impossible for him to say it himself, and neither was Lao Feng.
Then...
Bai Qingwen looked at Kang Cheng.
"I didn't say that." Kang Cheng didn't take the blame and explained, "Today he suddenly came to me and said that he was about to have all the money, and he also told you exactly how much money you have collected now. I am also very surprised. , where did he know it.”
Bai Qingwen couldn't figure it out even more.
"Is there a spy around us?" That shouldn't be the case. The people who intervened in this matter were carefully selected by him and would never betray him.
But apart from this explanation, Bai Qingwen really couldn't think of any other possibility.
Kang Cheng couldn't figure it out either, so he simply stopped thinking about it.
He said: "You can let this matter go. The most important thing now is how to get the remaining thirty thousand taels together as quickly as possible."
