() Chu Huan's voice was understated, and there was even a faint smile on the corner of his mouth. After all, Yuan Chongshang was the governor of a party. Although he was a military commander, he had been in the officialdom for so many years. There is no good feeling, the two sides even have a rift, although in the future in Anyi he will still need the help of a wealthy businessman like the Lu family, but he also knows the importance, compared to Mrs. Chu Huanchu who has been in the court recently, the weight of the Lu family Naturally, it was much lighter. He coughed and said, "Lu Shixun, the governor saw this debt. It is clearly written in black and white. It also has your signature on it. If there is any problem, just compare the fingerprints." .

Lu Lengyue had already said: "Your Excellency, Your Excellency, don't listen to the nonsense of the little dog. This debt is absolutely true, and there is no falsehood." According to this, my Lu family will naturally act according to the debt." After a pause, he said: "But... 12 taels of silver is not a small amount, can the imperial envoy allow me for a few days?"

Chu Huan said with a smile: "Dong Lu's family has a big business, and they can't get 12 taels of silver?"

In fact, what Chu Huan said is really right. Although the Lu family is a wealthy businessman, 12 taels of silver is by no means a small sum. You need to know that you can buy a good house in Taiyuan Mansion for 500 taels of silver. He is rich, but after all, he cannot be as rich as the Huang family. Moreover, the Lu family is in the grain business, and there is more than enough food. If you put together 3 or 10,000 taels of cash, you may be able to get it out in a short time, but if you want it all at once It is absolutely impossible to spend [-]+ taels of silver.

The Lu family held a large amount of stored grain, and had been doing grain business outside, and sold a lot of grain, but naturally the money for the grain could not be returned immediately. . .

What happened to Lu Shixun in Yunshan, he naturally told Lu Lengyue embellished, but he only set up a bill of 10 taels of silver, so Lu Shixun naturally did not tell Lu Lengyue, and even Lu Shixun himself forgot about such a thing.

Lu Lengyue couldn't have imagined that at today's night banquet, everyone seemed to be happy, and as soon as he presented the precious luminous pearl, the imperial envoy turned his back on him and demanded a debt.

12 taels of silver, not to mention taking it out now, even if it takes ten days and half a month, it may not be able to raise it all. It's huge, but the Lu family can't afford it at all. Thinking that they won't be able to get back the food money from outside for a while, they can only borrow it from the major merchants in Taiyuan Prefecture.

After all, the Lu family still has a full grain depot, and is the president of the chamber of commerce. The family has a big business, so it is not difficult to borrow some money.

"Your Imperial Envoy, don't worry, the 12 taels of silver will definitely be handed over before you leave Taiyuan." Lu Lengyue looked calm, "With the testimony of the Governor, the Lu family will never lie to this account, haha... ...!"

Yuan Chongshang also smiled and said, "Lord Chu, since Dong Lu's family said so, you can rest assured. The governor testified that when Master Chu left Taiyuan, he must have brought 12 taels of silver with him."

Chu Huan shook his head and said: "Putting Huang Tianyi down and confiscating Huang's family is not a matter of two or two days. Although Lu Dong's family is an imperial envoy, there is a clear distinction between public and private. It is a private matter to pay the debt. An official can wait, but Lin Lang may not be able to wait, and He Shengquan can't wait...!"

Lu Lengyue didn't expect Chu Huan to be so shameless and aggressive, she frowned slightly and said, "Then what does the imperial envoy want?"

"Don't misunderstand Lu Dong's family, I don't mean anything else." Chu Huan smiled sincerely, "Lu Dong's family, tell the truth, within three days, can you not get 12 taels of silver?"

Lu Lengyue sighed: "Master Imperial Envoy, to tell you the truth, we have not been able to get back a lot of food money, three to five days is too hasty."

Chu Huan looked at Yuan Chongshang, and said with a smile: "Dong Lu's family is sitting on Baoshan and crying poor." Putting down the teacup in his hand, he said with a smile: "My lord governor, you are here today, and I have come up with a plan. ?”

"What way?"

"Dong Lu's family can't come up with 12 taels of silver. If Chu is aggressive, he will be unreasonable." Chu Huan stretched out his hand to open the box, stroked Ye Mingzhu, and sighed softly: "Dong Lu's family is really good to me, and so is I." To save some face, in this way, Dong Lu’s family and He Shengquan are wineries, in the final analysis, what is lacking is food, and silver, if you don’t have it, you don’t have it, and we can use the food to pay for the silver.”

Lu Lengyue was startled, and Lu Shixun lost his voice: "No...!"

Chu Huan's face darkened, and he stared at Lu Shixun, "Young Master Lu, you don't have any money or food, so what do you think?"

Lu Lengyue frowned, glared at Lu Shixun, and looked at Yuan Chongshang.

Yuan Chongshang had already picked up his teacup, and without looking at Lu Lengyue, he just sipped the tea by himself, obviously not wanting to worry about it.

"Since Mr. Chu said so, we can only do as you wish." Lu Lengyue said slowly: "However, Mr. Chu does not know that the grain depot of the Lu family is not located in Taiyuan City, but in the entire six prefectures of Anyi. , there are grain depots of the Lu family, and the grain is scattered everywhere. Since Mr. Chu wants to use grain to pay for silver, we naturally convert it according to the lowest market price on the market. , and other grains are scattered across the states, and it may take more than ten days and half a month to transport the grains.”

Chu Huan didn't speak, but sipped his tea slowly.

"Master Chu, see if this is possible." Lu Lengyue said, "Huzhou is the closest to Yunshan, and there should be 2 taels of grain on the other side of Huzhou. I will send people to transport grain from Huzhou to Yunshan first. , and then order people to summon the states to collect the grain as soon as possible, and then arrange to send it to Yunshan. Although it will take a while, all the transportation expenses on the way will be borne by my Lu family. What do you think? "

Chu Huan rubbed his chin. Although Yuan Chongshang would not offend Chu Huan because of the Lu family, he obviously didn't want to embarrass the Lu family too much. He put down his teacup and said slowly, "Master Chu, I think this is the way to do this. Dong Lu's family also has The owner's difficulties, but the food they owe, will definitely not be a problem, this governor still believes in this."

Chu Huan said with a smile: "Since the Governor-General said so, there is no reason for Chu to refuse." He smiled and said to Lu Lengyue: "Boss Lu's family, I will trouble you with this matter." While speaking, his eyes glanced at Lu Leng The bill in Yue’s hand made Lu Lengyue sneer in her heart, but she still respectfully presented the bill in her hand to Chu Huan. Chu Huan said with a smile: “Since Dong Lu’s family has already made arrangements, this bill is useless. The official still has great trust in the reputation of Dong Lu's family." As he said this, he still carefully put away the IOU and put it back in his sleeve.

When Chu Huan left Lu Yuan, he was in a good mood, but the Lu family father and son were in a terrible mood.

After sending Chu Huan and Yuan Chongshang out of the mansion, they returned to the inner hall. Before Lu Shixun could speak, Lu Lengyue responded with a big-eared melon seed and said angrily, "You did a good job!"

Lu Shixun grimaced, "Father, it was all calculated by that kid. I didn't expect him to come for the truth."

"You were beaten by him on one leg and you almost couldn't walk. What else is not true?" Lu Lengyue sat down and said coldly: "10,000+ taels of silver, such a big thing, you have never asked I mentioned?"

"I... I thought he wouldn't come to ask for it." Lu Shixun clenched his fists, "I have already arranged it. If he really dares to come, I will kill him with one knife. He wants 10 taels of silver, and 1000 taels of silver. Then I can find someone to kill him... But I haven't seen them come over for a year, I thought...!"

Lu Lengyue sneered and said: "If a year ago, that bill would be a piece of paper in his hands, he would really dare to come to Taiyuan and let him never return. But today is different, now he is an official of the imperial court, It's an imperial envoy sent by the emperor, even Yuan Chongshang wants to let him get three points, the bill becomes a knife, if he doesn't take it out at this time, it's really a hell...!"

Lu Shixun approached, with a fierce look in his eyes, and said in a low voice: "Father, the imperial envoy is nothing. If you cut it off with a knife, your head will still be moved. I will find someone now...!"

When he said this, he immediately stopped talking, just because he saw that Lu Lengyue's eyes were gloomy and terrifying, so he didn't dare to continue.

"If you really want to kill people, Xiao Chen can do it." Lu Lengyue said coldly: "If you can't bear it, you will make a big conspiracy. At this time, we must bear it and never act rashly. If Chu Huan dies, I don't know What will happen, if something bad happens, we can't afford it."

Lu Shixun frowned, and said: "Could it be that you just watched that kid play prestige on our heads?"

"The grasshoppers in autumn can't jump for a few days." Lu Lengyue took the teacup and poured herself a cup of tea, "Now everything goes according to him, whatever he wants, we will do as he wants."

Lu Shixun said viciously: "When he falls into our hands, I will tear his body into pieces so that he will never be reborn." Suddenly he thought of something, and asked in a low voice: "Father, you said that everything will go your way. What he meant, could it be... do we really want to transport all the food back to Taiyuan, and then send it to Yunshan?"

Lu Lengyue leaned back on the chair, but there was a strange smile on the corner of her mouth, "Shixun, there is a saying that you should have heard. Good fortune depends on misfortune, and misfortune depends on good fortune. Today's matter seems to be Chu Huan had the upper hand, but he didn't know that he just did us a huge favor, and I really want to thank him."

"Father, what do you mean?" Lu Shixun frowned, "I...how can I not understand?"

"I don't understand, just think about it for yourself." Lu Lengyue said angrily, and then ordered in a low voice: "Send someone to Huzhou and tell them to take two thousand shi of grain from the grain depot and send it to the truck. To Yunshan, arrange more vehicles, one car can be loaded, divided into two cars, try to make the scene bigger, send more escorts, the slower the road, the better, don’t be too hasty, the road that can be covered in one day, divided into two cars Two days or even three days...!" With a sneer on the corner of his mouth, he said to himself: "Chu Huan, if you want to sing against this old man, I'm afraid you're still a little tender...!"
