If you really calculate it this way, it is indeed a bargain, but Fan Wuguo added that "cash" is required.
Even if there was trade between Qi Dynasty and Xichi, it was definitely not to the extent that things like gold and silver notes were exchanged. The envoys would definitely prepare some gold and silver before coming. If it was convenient, after entering Qi Dynasty, they could exchange the gold and silver notes of Qi Dynasty at a reputable big bank. If they didn't have much, they could just carry them with them.
The envoys from various countries came to attend Emperor Xuanren's birthday celebration. Even if trade negotiations were to be held later, that didn't require money. So, except for the Bao Kingdom that directly gave gold, silver and jewelry as gifts, basically the money prepared would not be much. At most, it would be used to try delicious food, buy some small gadgets and the like.
In the Qi Dynasty, one tael of gold could be exchanged for about 15 taels of silver. Of course, this required the best quality gold, which varied by 2 to 3 taels depending on the situation in different places. Now Fan Wuguo wanted 10,000 taels of gold. If he wanted to exchange it, he would have to pay the highest amount, which was 150,000 taels of silver. Even if the entire Xichi embassy was thoroughly searched, they would definitely not have that much money. Especially since Fan Wuguo wanted "cash" and could not use other items to exchange.
As a royal family, they must have some valuable things on them. Selling them to make money should be fine, but what would happen if they really sold their belongings? Not only would the Xichi envoys become a topic of conversation after dinner, but it would also rise to the level of Xichi country. How could the dignity of a country be trampled on at will
Chu Ci didn't know whether to be angry at Fan Wuguo for being too much, or at themselves. After all, they were the ones who gave him this opportunity. In fact, no matter what Chu Cheng's plan was, it was despicable to be able to use his sister.
"Don't worry, young master. I will give it to you in full later. But can you let Yanqing go first?" You should know that Chu Ci is a "flower maniac". Now he is not in the mood to appreciate Fan Wuguo's face. He has a gloomy face and it seems that he doesn't miss him at all.
"Okay." Fan Wuguo agreed reluctantly and asked someone to let Princess Yanqing down.
Princess Yanqing was hung there, not only was she frightened, but she was also watched by so many people, who pointed fingers at her and made random comments about her status, which made her feel extremely humiliated. Even though her mouth was blocked, it did not stop her from sobbing. After she was let down, her hands and feet were weak, and she was crying and snotting. She looked really embarrassed and pitiful.
It’s just that even Chu Ci clearly had some disgust in his expression.
Princess Yanqing was completely unaware of this. Perhaps because of Chu Ci and the others, she was emboldened again. She glared at Fan Wuguo and said, "You stinky man, I curse you to be single for the rest of your life!"
Fan Wuguo sneered. This curse had no killing power on him at all. "Whether I will remain a bachelor or not is entirely up to me. As for you..." Fan Wuguo's eyes became dangerous, staring at Princess Yanqing with ill intentions.
Princess Yanqing suddenly turned into a little quail again, hiding her head backwards. It seemed that her obsession with Fan Wuguo had completely turned into fear.
Fan Wuguo had no intention of letting her go. "You'd better stay away from me. Otherwise, even if you didn't do anything, I might be reminded of your previous actions and it would affect my mood. I would then be very angry. I would not just tie you up and auction you off. I would have someone teach you the 'rules' before selling you. Do you know what the rules are? They are the first thing a woman should learn after entering a brothel."
It was full of malice, and Princess Yanqing was frightened like a frightened rabbit.
"You dare to jump on me even though you look like this, and you didn't even ask who I am before." Fan Wuguo's eyes fell on Chu Ci, with the arrogance of the dustless, "In this Qi Dynasty Imperial City, there are only things that I don't want to do, but nothing that I dare not do. Don't think that I dare not do anything just because of the title of Princess Xichi. If you make me angry, I will strip you naked and throw you on the street. - Before dark, I want to see the gold, otherwise..."
Fan Wuguo left with his men.
He was so unbridled and flamboyant, and he showed no fear at all. Especially when he found the people from Liuka, he seemed to think of the incident when Princess Lanqi flirted with him. "I heard that the women in Liuka have a high status and don't seem to care about matters between men and women. I wonder if the men in that beggar's den don't care either?"
Princess Lanqi stepped back unconsciously. The little bully nowadays really couldn't be provoked. She knew this kind of man very well. If anyone dared to lay a hand on him again, he would die without knowing how. It seemed that she had underestimated him at the beginning. She was careless...
