Xiaojing and Chunfeng had a good time, drinking tea leisurely, waiting to watch the show. Yaoyao was usually easy to talk to, but she was not so easy to deal with anyone who messed with her.
The Marquis simply ignored it and let Ye Jiayao do her best to see how much profit she could squeeze out.
Seeing their situation, Zuo Qingyun's brain was pounding, and he had a strong foreboding feeling.
"Second Young Mistress, when it comes to you and I, we are both victims." Zuo Qingyun said.
Ye Jinxuan sneered in her heart, no matter what the pretense was, everyone knew the truth, it was just a layer of window paper that was not pierced.
"That's not what you said. The mastermind is your subordinate. The secret room is in your house. However, your personal grudges have dragged me into it, making the Jing'an House a joke. Are you a victim? You shouldn't come with me. Argument."
"You should know that if we don't give up, you Datonghui won't be able to make a good profit. Not everyone will believe Guanshi Bai's confession, especially the common people. They saw that you were arrested, and people were searched in the house. Those who found weapons thought you were going to rebel. What is the crime of rebellion? It is a major crime to behead. Everyone would think that Datonghui is going to close down. At this moment, many people are gathering at the door of Datonghui, demanding repayment of money. Still in Jinling, I believe the news will spread like wildfire soon, and it will spread to all Datonghui branches. Shopkeeper Zuo knows what kind of losses will be caused by that time, and his abacus is better than mine. Do you do the math?"
Zuo Qingyun couldn't calm down. Of course he knew the consequences, better than anyone else, so he would not hesitate to give a high price of one million in compensation. But this Ye Jinxuan also knew it and used it to blackmail. It seems that if today, If she is not satisfied, she will not be able to get out of this door.
It's not that he really can't get out. He can leave anytime he wants. I believe no one here can stop him. Even if he is imprisoned in the sky prison, the Jiangzuo Alliance can still find a way. The problem is that he must get out openly. , otherwise, he would become a fugitive. After years of hard work, the No. 1 Bank of Huaisong built up would fall apart, and he really couldn't afford the loss.
It doesn't take much, as long as they detain him for another three days, things will get out of hand.
Zuo Qingyun weighed it up and decided to take a step back.
"What the Second Young Madam said is, then... how about I compensate the Second Young Madam with another one million taels of silver?"
As soon as these words came out, Mr. Hou and others felt their hearts tremble.
Good boy, Ye Jinxuan squeezed out another million taels with just a few words and made a fortune.
Ye Jiayao was indifferent and said calmly: "Two million."
Zuo Qingyun felt a pain in his body. It was true that he was rich, but his money was not free. At this moment, he took out three million taels. He tried his best to hide the anger in his heart. Looking at Ye Jinxuan again, he didn't think this woman was cute at all. If he didn't have the mentality of being a hero and cherishing heroes, he wouldn't have accepted her. In this matter, she didn't care what Lin Wanyin wanted to do to her. Damn it, good deeds would not be rewarded.
"Okay, two million is two million." Zuo Qingyun gritted his teeth.
Ye Jiayao's tone was scornful: "What I said is, compensate me two million and compensate the Marquis of Jing'an's house two million."
Xiaojing coughed violently and choked on the tea.
The Marquis's heartbeat also accelerated, and he looked at his daughter-in-law with a very appreciative look. He was so happy to squeeze out this money, even Prince Yu felt pain.
Zuo Qingyun's face was so dark that he was almost dripping with gloom, and his heartbeat could hardly be felt.
Four million taels, which is almost the total income of all branches of Datonghui. If this amount is taken out, even King Yu's plans will be affected.
"Shopkeeper Zuo, if a man dares to do something, he must dare to do it. Be more cheerful, if it works, it will work, if it doesn't work, it won't work. We have plenty of time, but you don't have time to waste it." Ye Jiayao said.
Zuo Qingyun gritted his steel teeth secretly. He had to lower his head under the eaves, leaving the green hills without worrying about having no firewood. He thought with a sudden thought: "Four million is fine, but I hope the Hou Mansion will come forward to clarify that this matter has nothing to do with me. "
Ye Jiayao smiled: "Since Shopkeeper Zuo is so happy, we won't be sticky. There must be an explanation for the matter."
"Father, what do you think?" Ye Jiayao asked the Marquis what he meant.
The Marquis pretended to be dignified and said thoughtfully: "Of course there needs to be an explanation. As for how to say it and how it will be beneficial to everyone, I have to think about it again."
Zuo Qingyun said: "I don't ask for anything, I just want the people outside to know that this matter has nothing to do with me. As for the matter of compensation, once you leave this door, everyone will pretend that it never happened."
Mr. Hou said: "If the compensation is in place, you can leave at any time and this matter will be over."
Zuo Qingyun immediately wrote a letter, and Chunfeng went to Datonghui in person. Not long after, he brought back four banknotes with a face value of one million taels.
With the money in hand, Chunfeng ordered his men to complete the procedures for release from prison. Zuo Qingyun walked away with a livid face.
The Marquis laughed heartily: "Jinxuan, well done, well done."
Ye Jiayao smiled slightly: "Don't give this money for free. There is no way to convict him. It would be good to let him bleed some blood."
Xiao Jing said: "That's right, four million taels can form a large army. Instead of letting him fund King Yu, it's better to ask for it. However, Jinxuan, you are really ruthless, look at that left Qingyun’s face turned green.”
Ye Jiayao disagreed: "He deserves it."
The Marquis handed the one million taels of silver notes to Xiao Jing: "Give it to the prince. Just say that Prince Yu respects him."
Xiao Jing was not polite and accepted it with a smile. The prince is short of money now. He was under house arrest a while ago. Not only did he lose a lot of people, he also lost a lot of income. With this money, he can do a lot of things.
The other three hundred taels were given to Ye Jinxuan: "This is your credit. Keep it yourself and pay back the favor."
Ye Jiayao was stunned: "How can that be done? I have the money to repay the favor."
The Marquis waved his hand: "You keep it, money can make money in your hands. Anyway, you are in charge now."
Then he warned: "No one is allowed to tell anyone about today's matter."
Chunfeng and Xiaojing nodded hurriedly, knowing the importance of such a huge compensation. If word spread, people outside might make wild guesses.
Ye Jiayao touched the three large-denomination banknotes in her hand and felt happy. She suddenly gained three million taels. Now she was a truly rich woman.
With this money, renovating Nangong's old residence is a piece of cake.
Funds for opening Tianshangju branches have also been secured.
When that part comes out, let Zhao Qixuan buy more properties in the south.
Money begets money, and profits multiply. Maybe one day she will become the richest woman in the Song Dynasty.
What is a blessing in disguise? This is the best example.
Today, everyone finally got out of their bad moods, and everyone was in a much better mood. They were about to go home, when they saw a man in a suit of armor, dusty and dusty, rushing in.
Da Furniture was stunned for a moment, but Ye Jiayao reacted first and greeted him in surprise: "Chunyu, are you back?"
When Xia Chunyu returned to Ganzhou Mansion, she found out that the Queen Mother was dead. She was even more anxious and rushed back to Jinling without stopping. When she got home, she didn't even change her clothes. She heard from her servants that Yaoyao had been kidnapped and had been locked up for many days. He was rescued only yesterday. The person who kidnapped Yaoyao is now locked up in Dali Temple. Now Yaoyao went to Dali Temple, so he turned around and rushed over.
Along the way, his lungs almost exploded.
Someone actually took advantage of his absence and the absence of anyone in the Hou Mansion to attack Yaoyao.
The first thought that popped into Xia Chunyu's mind was... King Yu must have done it.
It's not enough for King Yu to deal with him, he also has to deal with Yaoyao.
This touched his reverse scale.
The reverse scale cannot be touched, otherwise it will be endless.
Seeing Yaoyao standing in front of him intact, Xia Chunyu breathed a sigh of relief, resisted the urge to hold her in his arms, and asked murderously: "Where is that bastard?"
The Marquis knew that the person his son was most nervous about was Jinxuan. Fortunately, the matter had been resolved. Otherwise, if Chunyu's fierce temper had arisen, he would have killed Zuo Qingyun on the spot.
He said, "Let's go home first."
Chunyu was not willing to let it go: "Where is the person? I want to see which bastard dares to kidnap my woman."
Ye Jiayao's heart felt warm, sweet and full of happiness when she heard it, and she liked hearing him speak so domineeringly.
"Uh... you're late, I've been released." Ye Jiayao smiled.
Xia Chunyu said angrily: "Let him go? You actually let him go? Who is he and where did he come from? You don't dare to mess with me, but I'm not afraid. He wants to die if he touches my woman."
Chunfeng patted the second brother on the shoulder: "Second brother, things are more complicated than you think. Let's go home first and talk about it later."
He forced Chunyu away.
Ye Jiayao followed happily, looking at Chunyu's stalwart figure like a nymphomaniac. She used to think he was very handsome when he was wearing a guard uniform, but it turned out that he was even more handsome in armor, so handsome that he was invincible.
It was cold and windy outside, but Ye Jiayao didn't feel cold at all. Today was such a good day. Not only did she make a lot of money, Chunyu, whom she missed so much, was also back.
Is this called hoping that Yunkai will see the light
Ye Jiayao was sitting in the carriage and also lifted the curtain to peek at Chunyu behind him. Chunfeng rode with him and said something from time to time. Chunyu frowned and listened. Suddenly he raised his eyes and met her gaze. The look on his face The coldness and solemnity suddenly turned into a deep feeling of pity.
Ye Jiayao smiled at him and retracted her head.
Qiao Xi looked at her with an ambiguous smile in her eyes, and she didn't know it at all. What she was thinking about was: She can hold Chunyu to sleep tonight, and there is no need for Mrs. Tang anymore. She wants to lie on top of him. Haha, great...
Back in the mansion, Chunyu was called to the study by the Marquis. After muttering for a while, Chunyu was let back.
Ye Jiayao asked people to prepare bath water. When she saw that Chunyu had been traveling hard, her eyes were dark and sunken, and she didn't even have a good rest when she came back, so she ran to find her first. Ye Jiayao felt very distressed and ordered the kitchen Let’s make some of Chunyu’s favorite dishes tonight.
As soon as the bath water was prepared, Chunyu came back.
With a wink from Qiao Xi, the maids followed them out of the room knowingly, and Qiao Xi closed the door behind them.
When no one else was around, Ye Jiayao rushed to hug him, but Chunyu hurriedly avoided: "I'm very dirty and I haven't taken a shower in several days."
Ye Jiayao grabbed him back and hugged him tightly: "I don't care if you are dirty or not."
