Although he didn't know what exactly happened, in Shen Zhongbai's eyes, since Chu Junyou was still willing to return to him, it meant that what happened during this period should not have caused him any trouble. What a big change, at least after he came back, he helped him deal with a big thing, so that he would not fall into Shen Qianshan's trap. However, this time, Shen Zhongbai still felt a little uncomfortable. Appropriate.
"Modo suddenly made things so big this time. Shen Qianshan will know something about him more or less. You can really be sure now that Modo will make things the same as before." Is it difficult to end it?”
Shen Zhongbai actually still feels a little unsure. Modo had indeed agreed with himself that this time it would be according to the situation planned by himself and Chu Junyou. But at this moment, Modo suddenly made a fuss. Such a big commotion always made him feel a little unsure. After all, Modo was not an ordinary person. If it were someone else, he would have been able to control him, but this person just didn't know how to control him. Someone who can control.
"You can rest assured about this. The situation now is different from before. No matter how ignorant Modo is, he will not cause you any trouble at this juncture." Chu Junyou was not worried about Modo. More, on the contrary, he was a little worried about the situation on Shen Qianshan's side. He was not afraid that Shen Qianshan would know the specific situation of Modo, but he was a little afraid that he did not know.
If Shen Qianshan knew the specific conditions of these people, he would be more or less afraid, and would think twice before doing anything. He would never make a decision quickly, but what if he didn't know? , what kind of decision they will make is beyond their control.
After Shen Qianshan simply tidied up, he took Gu Huaian to Shopkeeper Sun's restaurant. Although the situation here was not as good as that of Lingyin Pavilion, after Lingyin Pavilion was sealed, it was undoubtedly the largest in the capital. They were in a restaurant. Maybe in a place like this, they didn't lose their face. But at this time, after finding out what the other party had done, Shen Qianshan still felt a little bit embarrassed. After all, when a person like Modo appeared in such a place, even if he faced himself and Gu Huaian, the other party did not show any cowardice. He always felt as if he had been prepared for it a long time ago, and Shopkeeper Sun, no matter before or now, always gives everyone a feeling of being in a deep city. Before he went out, Gusu Liang had carefully told him, although everyone had already arranged manpower around him. But in such a situation, it is best to take precautions in advance.
Modo was originally a person who grew up on the frontier, and it was reasonable for him to have a rough personality, but he did not expect that Shen Qianshan would simply refuse his request to meet in Yuhua Building.
But after dancing for such a long time, he finally chose Shopkeeper Sun's shop, which made him feel even more confused. He didn't know what the person opposite wanted to do. After all, in this place, it can be regarded as... The territory that I can control, I can obviously solve the whole matter in Yuhua Building, but I have to choose the distance instead of the near.
"I really don't understand why the prince suddenly changed the location of our discussion." The expression on Modo's face was not very friendly, but Shen Qianshan and he were still different after all, and they would never change their relationship so quickly. Having stated his purpose, Modo almost had all his feelings written on his face.
"After all, Yuhua Building is not a serious place to talk about things. If there are too many people, other things may happen. I don't want these things between us to be disturbed by other things. Besides, Shopkeeper Sun is here. A store can be regarded as a famous place in the capital, so there is no need for you to be so harsh."
Shen Qianshan always greeted people with a smile, not to mention how could he easily offend the person in front of him before he had figured out the purpose of the person in front of him
"Could it be that the princes thought that they were already on your territory and what else could I do, so they took more precautions?" Modo's eyes were full of contempt. For them, these princes and nobles have always been Not to be ignored by them, what's more, this time's matter was originally discussed by himself and Shen Zhongbai in advance. Even if something really happened, he would still be behind him to support him, and he would not have any problems. loss.
"Sir, since we have already arrived at this place, there is no need to talk nonsense. Let's explain our purpose directly. We are all sensible people and there is no need to beat around the bush on such matters."
Gu Huaian didn't want this matter to drag on for a long time. Anyway, he knew in his heart that if Shen Qianshan waited and the conditions were really met, Modo might immediately fall out and not give them anything at all. opportunity to explain the relevant issues.
Although it is unclear whether Shen Zhongbai has reached some kind of conspiracy with the person in front of him, but if this is really the case, Modo will find an opportunity to lose his temper later. If the situation becomes If they were too stiff, Shen Zhongbai would be able to find a reason to send them both a favor.
"Well, since everyone is a cheerful person, I won't beat around the bush and just say what I mean directly. For so many years, these businessmen in our border areas have never had the opportunity to enter the capital. It's not easy to do so. We definitely want to take advantage of such an opportunity. I heard that the affairs of us people are all under the control of the prince recently, so we are here to speak to the prince. "
Modo looked at the seemingly frail prince in front of him. Before this, he had never heard of any name for this prince. Although he had heard that he had fought on the border, he was somewhat afraid of it, but Now that I see the person in front of me, I feel that there is absolutely nothing to be afraid of.
"Sir, if you have anything to say, just say it. If it is within the scope of my ability, I will do my best."
Shen Qianshan knew a long time ago that the request made by the person in front of him would be very rude, so I will just say all the beautiful words now. When I fall out later, I may be able to find out from his behavior. Some clues.
"The issue of import and export tariffs has always troubled us. In addition, we have just arrived in the capital and these things haven't been sold yet. You can't collect taxes from us first, right?"
Shen Qianshan's previous guess was indeed correct. Since Modo appeared in this place so boldly, he accused him of changing places. The request he made next would not be that simple. I originally thought that he would use This was an excuse to lower taxes, but he didn't expect that he actually wanted to exempt this part of the tax.
"Sir, you must be joking. There have been no such rules since ancient times. If you don't want to do business here, you can go elsewhere. There is no need to waste time here."
In fact, after Shen Qianshan heard those words just now, his heart skipped a beat. The matter he brought up to him was already high enough, but he didn't expect that the person opposite him would not only do the opposite to him, but also directly If he wants to waive these expenses, even if he really says that the person in front of him has nothing to do with Shen Zhongbai, no one will believe him.
"I've already been sitting here. Do you think I'm wasting my time with you now?"
Modo still looked down upon the young man in front of him. Although he was a prince, he was still a little older than himself. No matter what he said, the words of someone he felt were older would still have some weight.
But Modo didn't expect that as soon as he opened his mouth, the person in front of him would reject him in this way. However, it was not the case that he and the emperor had discussed from the beginning. I want to test what kind of attitude the person in front of me has before I can continue to deal with the next thing.
"Since sir, you don't want to waste your time, let's open the skylight and speak frankly. As for this part of the issue, you can just do whatever you want. It's your first time here, and we won't let you be too embarrassed. It's just that we have to settle the rules. After such news spreads, it will be said that you are relying on your old age and trying to dominate other people's territory. This will have a negative impact on everyone's future reputation. It’s not very good. Do you think I’m right?”
In fact, there was no need for Shen Qianshan to speak to him so politely. Even if he was just a prince and the person he faced was just an ordinary foreign businessman, there was no need for him to be polite to him, but After hearing the past things about him, I subconsciously became defensive, so I had no choice but to start to have some resistance to him.
Gu Huaian took advantage of this opportunity and looked at Shopkeeper Sun, who had been standing aside without speaking. He always had an expression on his face that he couldn't figure out. To be honest, he really couldn't figure out who he was. Whatever he wants to do, no matter whether it is Modo or Shen Qianshan who wins this battle, it should not be of much benefit to him. At least these foreign businessmen should be of little benefit to him after they enter the capital. It's harmful but useless, why would he get involved in this matter
