"One hundred thousand taels?"
Meng Qingqian knew very well what one hundred thousand taels meant. It was a year's tax revenue for a small county, but it could also be used to support a thousand-strong elite army for several years.
"Too much?" He Yunxiao asked with a smile.
"Too many." Meng Qingqian said.
"Okay, that's less, you say the number." He Yunxiao said casually.
Meng Qingqian thought for a while, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, "Ten thousand taels."
He Yunxiao patted the table and said, "Okay, let's make a deal, 10,000 taels will be 10,000 taels."
He pushed the wooden box forward, "You take the bank note, and I'll give you the handkerchief."
Meng Qing smiled slightly, and didn't talk about getting the bank notes, but murmured: "Let me think about what business I can do with 10,000 taels."
He Yunxiao:
Good guy, I'm still naive, the antidote girl is still calculating! Still underestimate her!
"I can't do any big business, just help the shops on the street to sell more things." He Yunxiao said half-truthfully.
"What street?"
"Northbound Street."
"what business?"
"Coupons."
Meng Qing frowned slightly. As a superior, she naturally wouldn't foolishly ask, "What is a consumer coupon?" For a person in power at her level, she must maintain "omniscience" and "mystery", otherwise it will not be enough to convince the public.
"Yeah." Meng Qingqian agreed first, and then asked, "Why didn't you ask your father for it? The dignified Marquis of Wu Qing, shouldn't you be unable to take out even 10,000 taels?"
Since he didn't plan to attack the antidote girl, He Yunxiao didn't have any taboos about protecting his favorability. He said directly: "I plan to make money with money, and go to Chunfeng Building to redeem the girl. My father can't agree, so I can't ask him for money."
[Li Qingmeng's favorability changed from 35 to 30]
Meng Qingqian originally thought that He Yunxiao who had sworn to Nanzhu was something good, but he didn't expect him to be nothing more than that. A majestic son of the Marquis Mansion, going into business to make money and redeem a girl, really doesn't want the face of being a Marquis at all.
She said disdainfully: "Humph, you don't need to borrow 10,000 taels for redeeming the girl. Just send a few dozen taels, that's all."
"It's the oiran." He Yunxiao explained kindly.
"So what about the oiran, it's only a thousand taels."
He Yunxiao sighed: "It's my sister Jiang, Jiang Wuyou."
Meng Qingqian was silent for a while.
The name Jiang Wuyou even had an impression on her. At the mother's birthday party, this girl's amazing performance not only made Da Qi gain face in front of the envoys from various countries, but also made her mother quite happy for a while. For a while, I read and watched dancing every day.
"How much silver will it cost to redeem her?"
He Yunxiao confessed, "My sister said, at least ten thousand taels."
"Probably not enough."
"So I asked you to borrow money to do business."
Seeing He Yunxiao's unreliable look, Meng Qingqian asked doubtfully, "Is she willing to be with you?"
He Yunxiao said without hesitation, "That's natural."
"No." Meng Qingqian was very firm.
He Yunxiao coughed, touched the wooden box containing the handkerchief again, "You think it through."
Meng Qingqian asked herself to be strong-willed, whether it was the physical and mental exhaustion of worrying about the political affairs of the court every day, or the life-threatening danger that would come at any time when being assassinated by assassins, as well as physical pain or endless mental pressure and torture, she had it all. Be confident you can make it through.
But the strength to survive the suffering is based on one's own pride, and that pride is something called "Princess Daqi", "Sister Shengshang", and "His Royal Highness Xiaoyue".
But He Yunxiao's handkerchief is an object that can destroy this pride. It's like the gate of death in martial arts, or the switch of a mecha monster.
Meng Qingqian didn't want to recall herself at that time, such a naughty girl was very different from what she should be.
Whenever He Yunxiao took out a handkerchief, it was like taking out a "green sword" that could be used without any armor, and unreasonably passed through her layers of protection, and directly hit the most terrible and softest heart.
When He Yunxiao touched the wooden box, Meng Qingqian's face showed a tinge of pink.
"My girl has made up her mind, so I won't borrow it." She said forcefully.
"You don't want to borrow it? Okay, tomorrow I will bring my good brother Li Jin to play with the handkerchief. Oh, I remember I haven't seen my good brother Li Jin for several days." He Yunxiao said pretending to be indifferent.
Hearing the word "Li Jin", Meng Qingqian couldn't hold back anymore.
She usually faces Li Jin with the appearance of a cold and steady elder, but if Li Jin knows that she has another side: the one who is so stupid that she drools and needs someone to wipe her mouth with a handkerchief. Then there would be no more face to live on, it would be better to find a well and commit suicide now.
"Don't..." Meng Qingqian lowered her eyebrows, and her tone even contained pleading at the moment.
He Yunxiao sighed, he didn't intend to make things difficult for the antidote girl. Borrowing money is a good thing. What's more, I have the endorsement of the Hou Mansion, so I can't be an old Lai. It's just that this girl didn't know whether it was on purpose or what, but she was so stubborn that she would not even let her die.
"Miss Li," seeing the antidote girl being teased by him, He Yunxiao finally softened his heart, "If you don't have 10,000 taels, I definitely won't ask you to borrow it. But if you are really rich, please lend it to me. Big deal, after one month, I will add 20% more as the interest on the money the girl borrowed from me."
"Forty percent." Meng Qingqian said indifferently.
grass
Just now he looked pitifully being bullied, and he could turn his face in less than two breaths. You really have it, stinky antidote!
"Up to 30%." He Yunxiao gritted his teeth.
"Thirty percent, then give me the handkerchief." Meng Qingqian negotiated terms with He Yunxiao expressionlessly.
"Then you return the martial arts novel to me." He Yunxiao continued to overweight.
Meng Qingqian squinted her eyes, "Is it really yours?"
He Yunxiao smiled sadly, "Did you really see it?"
"I don't have it in this palace or in the palace. It's elsewhere." Thinking of the story in the novel, Meng Qingqian blushed and panicked, and almost slipped her mouth.
"If you don't return my novel, I won't give you a handkerchief."
"Give me the handkerchief first, and then I'll give you the banknote. You can pick up the novel tomorrow."
"The banknotes are given now, and the novels and handkerchiefs will be exchanged for one tomorrow."
"No, you must give me the handkerchief first." Meng Qingqian said without doubt.
He Yunxiao looked at the expressionless and eloquent antidote girl, and admired her a little in his heart. It is obvious that she has been grasped by her, and she is at a disadvantage in the negotiation, but she can not lose the upper hand at the negotiation table.
Isn't she guilty
He Yunxiao finally compromised: "Well, where did you put the novel, let's get it now. Then you give me the banknote and the novel on the spot, and I will give you the handkerchief on the spot."
He Yunxiao's novel is currently in the palace, locked in a cabinet in Changhe Palace, the bedroom of Princess Xiaoyue.
Taking him there would be tantamount to directly admitting that Li Qingmeng is Meng Qingqian.
"Li Qingmeng" did so many shameless things, including "picking fruit", "handkerchief", and "father emperor", all were done by "Li Qingmeng"!
And Meng Qingqian is the eldest princess of Qi, mature and stable, dignified and beautiful, with unparalleled power and skill.
There must be no relationship between these two!
Meng Qingqian finally compromised with He Yunxiao and said: "I will give you a bank note today, and tomorrow afternoon, when you come here, we will have a novel and a handkerchief."
He Yunxiao was thinking about the coupons. The commercial street was busy in the afternoon, and the business would be booming, so he might not be able to leave.
What he thought was that tomorrow morning he would take someone to clean up the store, and order a batch of consumer coupons. Since the printing factories are all in the west of the city, he could come here to exchange handkerchiefs.
"Tomorrow morning, we will change." He Yunxiao said.
"Not in the morning, in the afternoon or in the evening."
Not in the morning
Oh yes, the antidote has to go to Antler Academy in the morning.
He Yunxiao had experienced today's frequent rebuffs in business negotiations because of his identity as a villain. He had already thought of a solution, and happened to have to go to Antler Academy, so he said, "Tomorrow morning, the Antler Academy will be changed."
"Yes." Meng Qingqian said.
