son-in-law

Chapter 160 Chapter [-]

After the death of the first emperor, Empress Dowager Chen dismissed all the concubines in the palace. Among them, Princess Rong, the mother of Prince Geng Zhao Zhun, also left the palace to live in Prince Geng's mansion.

After leaving the palace, Concubine Rong and Zhao Qun's mother and elder sister often meet, needless to say they have a deep relationship.

And Zhao Qun, the owner of Wensheng County, ran to Zhao Zhun's house with her mother since she was a child.Call Zhao Zhun Second Brother.But Zhao Zhun is five years older than Zhao Qun, and he couldn't play together when he was young.It was only in recent years that Zhao Qun flattered her second brother and took her out to play.Zhao Zhun loves polo and Cuju the most, and Zhao Qun followed suit.But she is not very talented in sports, and she doesn't do well in anything. On the contrary, she often makes jokes.She is often called "stupid girl" and "happy fruit" by Zhao Zhun.

Now that Zhao Qun's family is in debt, the elder brothers are more capable than each other, and they don't want to make progress, so the old lady often borrows money.Even though he is a member of the royal family, he will not be mixed up to the point of living on the streets anyway.But the feeling of borrowing money to live is still uncomfortable.

Especially during royal gatherings, seeing relatives dressed better than herself, the little girl was very angry.Since my brothers are useless, I might as well find a way to make money by myself.When the time comes, I will make my own money and spend it myself, so I don't care about them.

Now that she came in front of Su Yu, blatantly extorting money, her appetite was actually not that great.She said, if your business is sure to make money, I will also invest some money in it, and then you will give me 200 million a year.

200 million is a lot of money for an ordinary family, enough for an ordinary family of three to live for 50 years.But for the Tang family, it was really not enough.When Su Yu heard the number "200 million", he agreed boldly, and added: "If the princess really helps, you have to tell Su Yu the birthday of the princess and the birthday of the concubine." , there must be a gift."

"Then we've made a deal!" Zhao Qun said truthfully.

"Well, it's settled." Su Yu nodded.

Zhao Qun left contentedly, and then watched the game.Now she looks more anxious than Su Yu, and really hopes that this game will end as soon as possible.

Then Su Yu told Tang Kuan the content of the conversation just now, and Tang Kuan smiled and said, "If that's the case, it's easy for you and me. It only costs 200 million a year. It seems that this little princess is really in short supply." Money. She said she wants to invest money? I think it’s better to forget it. The name of Princess Wensheng alone is worth 200 million. At that time, we will tell the outside world that this is a transaction between the Tang family and the Sheng Palace. Officials, businessmen and bandits are involved, and no one dares to make trouble."

Hearing this, Su Yu and Tang Kuan smiled at each other, claiming that the trip was worthwhile.

But Su Yu still worried and said: "In my opinion, even if Princess Wensheng is involved, Zhao Zhun will not sell it easily. The price will not be too low, and there may be other demands."

Tang Kuan said: "Before I came, my younger sister had already told me that it is best to win within [-] million. If Zhao Zhun asks for a price, we can give up to [-] million at most. Besides, my younger sister has considered it, then Zhao Zhunji has It may be half sale and half cooperation. Maybe he will play the trick of empty hands and white wolves. Sell the land to us at a high price, he will make a lot of money, and then ask us for some shares, and then draw dividends every year.”

Su Yu asked: "How much dividend does Ling'er promise to give him?"

Tang Kuan said: "If we really talked about this step, Linger said that he would talk to Zhao Zhun in person. But my younger sister doesn't want that, because my younger sister has always hated Zhao Zhun."

"Why do you hate it?" Su Yu asked curiously.

Tang Kuan patted Su Yu's shoulder, smiled without saying a word.

Su Yu had a bad feeling in his heart. He had heard that there were many men thinking about Tang Ling'er. Could it be that Prince Geng was among them?
Although Tang Ling'er and Tang Ling'er only have the name of husband and wife but not the reality of husband and wife, but his daughter-in-law is still missed by other men, and he still feels uncomfortable.Su Yu didn't want the matter to develop to that point.

But if Zhao Zhun really wants to pay dividends, what should he do?
Su Yu's eyes moved sideways, looking at Zhao Qun, Princess Wensheng.It was suddenly decided that the winner of this matter fell on Zhao Qun.The little girl loves money, so she does what she likes, and she simply spends a lot of money.I would rather give the money to Zhao Qun than Zhao Zhun.

Su Yu turned his head to look at Zhao Qun, thinking about something in his mind, and was suddenly distracted.It just so happened that Zhao Qun was also sneaking a glance at Su Yu at this time, her eyes met, seeing Su Yu staring at her in a daze, the princess's delicate body trembled slightly, her eyes turned sharply, and her pretty face was flushed.

Seeing this, the little eunuch next to him stood up and wanted to reprimand Su Yu for his rude behavior, but the princess stopped him, and instead reprimanded the little eunuch.

The little eunuch stood with his head bowed, not daring to say anything.

This situation is just like a blank poem written by Ouyang Jing: Yulang has no intention at all, but the pretty man is in love, the sound of wind and leaves, and the ground is full of dead flowers and willows.Later, the last line of the poem was changed by Xu Luochen to "Full of frost on the lake".

"The game is over! The Prince team wins!"

The eunuch shouted.

The prince cheered, and a dozen spectators applauded.The contestants then prepare to take a bath.

Zhao Zhun said, don't leave, everyone, although this is a gamble, but today the fourth son of the Tang family is the host, preparing food and silk for the loser.Everyone should thank me for me.You go to Jinbao Pavilion first and wait, and I will come after taking a bath.

Gossip less, the royal banquet is divided into meals, each person sits in front of each other, and the roasted whole lamb banquet is fragrant with delicious wine.

There were less than forty people in total, but ten sheep were roasted and ten altars of wine were opened.Needless to say, how much wine and meat can be left.No wonder there are often people in the market saying: rich people have extravagant wine and meat, who cares about begging, freezing and starving.

Princes, county kings, princesses, princesses, wear gold and jade, wear colorful satin, and have a fat head.There were no elders present, let alone the eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so the scene was noisy.Some people grabbed the fat mutton and threw it out to play tricks, holding wine glasses and throwing sweets and sweets to each other to play.While chatting and laughing, they called the palace dancers to play, play and sing, and danced to add to the fun, and the Jinbao Pavilion was full of singing and dancing.

There were a lot of people at the banquet, not the time to discuss business, but Princess Wensheng was impatient, ran to sit down beside Zhao Zhun, and whispered for a while.Zhao Zhun's face was full of jokes, but he didn't respond.Then the boss of Princess Wensheng was unhappy, and returned to his seat, gave Zhao Zhun a sad look, and then looked at Su Yu with an apologetic look.

Seeing this, Su Yu knew that Zhao Zhun did not agree, and the subsequent negotiations would inevitably be difficult.

After two hours passed, everyone dispersed, and Zhao Zhun, who was slightly drunk, called Tang Kuan and Zhao Zhun to the ear hall to discuss matters.

Zhao Qun wanted to come in, but was kicked out by Zhao Zhun.

"Men want to talk about things, women don't want to mess around, and step back." After saying a word, Zhao Zhun turned his head: "The fourth son of the Tang family brought the county horse to look for the king, what is the matter?"

Tang Kuan said: "I want a bamboo forest at Luqiao Station in Yonggu City. How much can I sell it for? Prince Geng, please tell me."

Zhao Zhun said: "That piece of land is where the royal family hunts in winter, how can it be bought or sold?"

Tang Kuan glanced at Su Yu, and Su Yu said, "Even if the Tang family bought the land, that land is ready to be used by the royal family for hunting at any time. There will be no delay."

Zhao Zhun smiled and waved his hands: "Uh, you can't say that. It is said that the ancestral property is kept for keeping the property. If the ancestral property is moved, it will be called an unfilial act by those censors. This king is the first brother of the current emperor, and all the princes How can you take this lead as an example?"

Su Yu and Tang Kuan looked at each other, and said: "If you sell this land cheaply or squander the money, it will be regarded as a prodigal act. But if you sell it at a high price and use the money to buy good land, it cannot be regarded as squandering the ancestral property. It is to increase the family business. No matter what dialect official, there is no word 'no'."

Zhao Zhun nodded and said, "Well, what Young Master Tang said makes sense. If that's the case, how much good land do you plan to exchange for my land, and how much money can you add to me? I declare in advance that land that is too far away I don’t want it, I must have good fields near Gyeonggi. And it must be closer to Luoyang City than my bamboo forest. Otherwise, I won’t open my mouth.”
