Chapter 64 Greed for money
Ao Xian is in the middle of Longtan Lake, and it is simple to cross the lake, but the water must be full of scale warriors. If there is a misunderstanding, it will be a fight.
However, without waiting for Chun Yu Jin to answer, a voice sounded from not far away.
"Captain Chunyu, Consul Wang... I didn't expect to see you again so soon, and I was still in this Shuiyun Villa."
The man who walked over quickly was wearing casual clothes. He saw Gai Zheng, a captain in the East Palace who had fought in the daytime. Gai Zheng saw the two of them very enthusiastic and could not see the hostility of both sides. After he approached, he took the initiative to salute Chunyu Jin. Even when he faced Wang Fang, who was much smaller than his official rank, he hugged his fists to show respect.
After meeting Li Yao, Gai Zheng knew that the country attached great importance to Wang Fang and asked him to try his best to win him over. He knew that Wang Fang could not be limited to the seventh-rank chief clerk, and this young man had a better future than himself.
Of course...the premise is that he is willing to surrender to Li Xiang.
After Chunyu Jin and Wang Weng returned the gift, Gai Zheng took out two oil paper bags and stuffed them to them and said, "Just just now, Li Xiang was very happy to know that the two came to Shuiyun Villa Courtyard and specially ordered me to welcome them. I have prepared the hard money for the brothers of the North Palace Guard. Our East and North Palace Guards should cooperate with us so sincerely today."
"Thank you, Captain Gai." Chunyu Jin replied indifferently, and then gave Wang Fang the oil paper packet.
Wang Fang pinched the thickness of the two oil paper bags, and it was almost the same.
You should know that Chunyu Jin's share, in addition to her own 10,000 taels of silver, also includes 50,000 taels of silver for Beidianwei. How to use the sixty thousand taels of silver together depends entirely on Chunyu Jin's wishes. The paper bag he gave was almost as thick as meant that Gai was quietly increasing the price for himself.
"Thank you, Lord Gai." Wang Fang was in a good mood and laughed.
"This little money is nothing to our East Palace Guard..." Gai Zheng did not forget to continue to use the money to lure Wang Fang, and invited him: "Two, come with me, Li Xiang has been waiting for a long time."
But Chunyu Jin did not move.
She is the core figure of the Great Prince's line. This time she came to Shuiyun Villa, which will have a bad impact. If she attends a banquet between Li Yao and the Sin clan, she will inevitably send wrong signals to officials of the Great Prince's line.
It is still unknown whether Li Yao can take the opportunity to defeat Li Yao. If Li Yao can maintain the position, the dispute over the crown prince will continue.
"I have the care of Li Xiang. I came to Shuiyun Villa just because I heard about the beautiful scenery here for a long time. I wanted to take the opportunity to visit the park, but I had no other ideas.
Lord Gai doesn’t need to delay our business. Today is coming. I wonder if the East Palace Guard has found what you are looking for?”
Chunyu Jin was talking about what Gai Zheng was most reluctant to mention.
The whole day, the East Palace Guard mobilized all his strength to search for hidden monsters all over the city. The man and the demon slaves captured a lot, but the master did not find one.
As this day is about to pass, in the next three days, there will only be more and more people coming from Zejun from all over the country to celebrate the birthday of King Jiang.
The difficulty is increasing day by day.
The East Palace Guards not only wanted to find monsters lurking in the city, but also could not cause chaos in Zejun, but they were about to drive Gai Zheng crazy.
Seeing Gai Zheng's expression getting ugly, Wang Fang pulled him aside and said to Chunyu Jin: "Sir, I will talk about the village slaughter case with Captain Gai, so I will not delay your leisure to visit the garden."
Gai Zheng was pulled away by Wang Fang. Chunyu Jin, who didn't know what he wanted to do, had to really enjoy the scenery here by the lake.
Wang Fang took Gai to a secluded place and said, "I'm sorry, Lord Gai. My lieutenant is in a bad mood today..." As he said that, Wang Fang opened his oil paper bag. Seeing a thick stack of silver notes inside, he pretended to be surprised and said, "Is this... there is so much money for this ten thousand taels of silver?"
Gai Zheng knew that Chunyu Jin was a strong man of the eldest prince, so it was reasonable to say something that stimulated him, so he didn't have to worry too much. How to pull the king down in front of him is an important task given to him by the Prime Minister.
Seeing that Wang Fang had never seen so much money, Gai Zheng laughed and said, "Of course ten thousand taels of silver are not that much, that's for Captain Chunyu. Consul Wang helped me a lot today. As expected, I was scolded for being both serious and serious in the Prime Minister.
The King of Consuls has kindness to me, but I will repay you with kindness.
Here is 50,000 taels of silver, which is considered to be a purchase of some clothes for Counselor Wang.”
What clothes can be worth 50,000 taels of silver?
However, Wang Fang also saw that Gai was about to win over him. He was Li Yao's confidant. He would not do this without Li Yao's approval.
Wang Fang laughed and put the silver notes in his arms, saying, "Thank you again, Lord Gai, I really have many places to use money when I first came to Zejun. These silver can really solve my urgent needs.
If you have any questions in the future, I will say that as long as I can do it, I will never say anything.”
With Wang Fang's promise, Gai Zheng immediately asked: "Does Counselor Wang know where the monster lurking in the city are?"
Wang Fang said mysteriously: "The Beidian Guard did find some things, but I can't tell you until the matter is clear. If Lord Gai is willing to help me go to the Huxin Huafang to meet Ao Xian, the fourth prince of the Dragon Clan, I will definitely tell you something useful when I come back.
But I can't let anyone know about Ao Xian, including Captain Chunyu and Li Xiang."
Gai Zheng was very happy to hear Wang Fang’s information about the hidden demon clan in the city, but when he heard Wang Fang’s request, he asked vigilantly: “You want to see Ao Xian? What’s the matter?”
Wang Fang smiled and said, "I just want to do some business with the scale clan. I endured too much hardship after a young age and was afraid of being poor. Although Lord Gai gave me 50,000 silver this time, there will be a day to spend.
If I can make friends with the prince of the Dragon Clan, I can protect me from food and clothing for the rest of my life by relying on the products in the sea.
This time I rarely come to Shuiyun Villa. It’s so close to Ao Xian, I just want to try my luck.”
Gao Zheng didn't believe Wang Fang's words at all.
If Li Yao wants to monopolize the political achievement of establishing diplomatic relations with the Sin clan, how could the people from the eldest prince penetrate into it?
However, Wang Fang had the possibility of being fought over, so Gai Zheng did not directly refuse, but said: "This... the safety of the Dragon Clan prince is related to the diplomatic relations between the two tribes, and the matter is very important. If the counselor of Wang really has important things to see Ao Xian, please wait for me to report to Li Xiang first."
Wang Fang grabbed Gai Zheng and said, "I saw that Ao Xian was really just talking about business. If Li Xiang or Captain Chunyu knew about it, it would inevitably affect my future career. If Lord Gai didn't believe it, you can go to see Ao Xian with me. If I really did something unfavorable to Li Xiang, you will know it as soon as you hear it.
If you don't take me there, I'll leave."
The incident of the demon clan lurking in the city has already made Gai Zheng very anxious. Now there is news that he is not willing to let Wang Fang leave like this.
But Wang Fang took the condition of seeing Ao Xian...
Gai Zheng began to think that Wang Fang had other plans, but he was willing to let him listen, which made Gai Zheng hesitate. Could it be that he really just wanted to take the opportunity to make friends with Ao Xian and want to do business without telling Chunyu Jin?
It is really possible to see Wang Fang's love for money.
Anyway, the wealth and honor of Gai Zheng will be able to find the lurking monster. After seeing Ao Xian, Wang Fang told himself some real things, which is a life-saving kindness.
Gai Zhengzheng said, "If you ask me to listen, I will take you there."
