Zhu Houzhao, the lonely Ming Dynasty, angrily snatched Yan Shenggong at the beginning!

Chapter 44 The Kong family is a crop, after harvesting one crop after another! (Kneeling for further reading, investment, collection!)

"Bachelor Xie, did you really not discuss it? There can be no less. This is too much, and our Kong family can't afford it!"

In Yan Shenggong's study room, Kong Hongtai looked at Xie Qian earnestly, hoping that the other party would talk to him again and lower the price a bit.

Just this morning, Xie Qian found him and told him that he had already talked to the other party.

After a lot of rhetoric, Xie Qian was finally given face by the opposite party, and 20 taels of silver was dropped, but 30 taels were killed, not a penny was missing.

"Ugh!"

Xie Qian sighed lightly, with a look of doubt on his face: "Yan Shenggong, this is really indispensable. When the old man talked with them, he always had a smile on his face."

"To tell you the truth, the old man has never been so low-key in his life, and he is not polite when speaking to the face. If it is not for you, Yan Shenggong, the old man would want to walk away and never get involved in this matter again. "

"This…"

Kong Hongtai opened his mouth, not knowing how to speak.

People have gone so far for their own family affairs, but for myself, not only do not understand the difficulties of the other party, but also want them to continue to find the other party and lower the price.

Seeing Xie Qian with a perplexed face and slightly frowning brows, Kong Hongtai struggled in his heart for a long time, finally gritted his teeth slightly, and decided to let the blood out.

Forget it, isn't it just an extra 5 taels of silver?

As long as I can invite back the sitting statues of my ancestors, so what if I give them back.

In the future, if you increase the rent to the tenants, you can get it back in a year or two.

Thinking that he still had so many sheep to slaughter, Kong Hongtai stood up and saluted Xie Qian.

"Yan Shenggong, this old man is really powerless!"

Xie Qian got up quickly, and returned a salute with a wry smile.

He thought that the other party saluted him in order to let him talk about it again and lower the price a bit.

"Xie Xueshi misunderstood. Xie Xueshi has already paid so much for my Kong family, and I feel extremely guilty in my heart. How can I force others to make things difficult for me?"

"Xie Xueshi's kindness, my Confucius family has written it down. If you need anything in the future, you can write to me at any time."

After finishing speaking, Kong Hongtai greeted the butler outside the door.

"You go to the warehouse to get 30 taels of silver, and then take someone to accompany Xueshi Xie to redeem the things in person."

Xie Qian squinted his eyes, glanced at the butler who was walking out, and then at Kong Hongtai who was in pain, feeling hehe in his heart.

Kong Hongtai is cunning enough, because he is afraid that he will get kickbacks from him.

"Hmph, it's really a villain's heart to judge a gentleman's belly. I have paid so much for you, but I still don't believe me. I should have known that it cost 80 taels of silver."

But this is just a thought, 30 taels is already the limit of the Kong family, if the price is too high, the Kong family will definitely turn their backs.

The Kong family is not afraid of losing face or something, anyway, it's not once or twice, and they have even repaired to lower the table for foreign races, and they still care about losing such a small face.

If it weren't for the fear that other branches would make a fuss about the statue, Kong Hongtai probably wouldn't even spend a penny.

"Bachelor Xie, I will trouble you to make another trip on this matter."

Heartbroken for the 30 taels, Kong Hongtai raised his teacup and thanked Xie Qian with tea instead of wine.

"It's okay, it's my honor to invite you back to the seated statue of the most holy master."

Xie Qian replied with a smile, picked up the teacup and was about to drink it.

"Oh!"

However, as soon as his mouth touched the tea, the slightly closed door was suddenly pushed open, and a young man hurriedly rushed.

"Cough cough..."

The sudden movement startled Kong Hongtai, the tea he had just swallowed suddenly choked his throat, and the tea in his mouth sprayed all over the floor.

"Bastard! Ahem..."

Kong Hongtai angrily threw the teacup towards the young man, and coughed violently before he could finish his sentence.

"First breathe evenly, first breathe evenly..."

Xie Qian glanced at the young man, shook his head slightly, stepped forward quickly, and patted Kong Hongtai on the back.

The young man who rushed in, seeing his own recklessness and getting into trouble again, and this time there were outsiders, stood there awkwardly, at a loss...

"Cough cough cough..."

After coughing heavily for a long time and spitting out a few mouthfuls of thick phlegm, Kong Hongtai slowly recovered.

He nodded his thanks to Xie Qian first, and then glared at the young man angrily: "You rebellious son, you can't kill your father if you want to."

The man was Kong Hongtai's only surviving son, the fourth son of the Kong family who had been beaten twice by Zhang Yong.

"Father, I'm just in a hurry for a while. I don't have any other intentions. I hope my father will calm down!"

The young man was so frightened by his father's drink that he knelt on the ground and quickly kowtowed to explain.

Uh, that's right, I'm here on business, and it's not a joke.

As he was talking, the young man suddenly realized that he had something important to do here, not to be scolded by his old man.

"Father, you can scold me later. Something happened to the mine. Someone robbed our mine and arrested all our people. Cousin Liu and his men were stripped naked and hung on poles .Those people sent word that they wanted to..."

"Bastard, what mine, get out of here..."

Kong Hongtai was so angry, why did he give birth to such an idiot son?
Didn't you see there were outsiders around?
Why are you talking outside?

How can you casually talk about the mine in front of outsiders? What an idiot.

The young man scratched his head, not understanding why his father was so angry?
But seeing his old man's staring eyes and the signal to tell him to get out of here, the young man got up in doubt, turned his head three times, and left the room several times hesitating to speak.

"Scholar Xie, because of the departure of several elder brothers, Gouzi got hysterical and often said some nonsense, which made Xueshi Xie laugh."

When the young man left, Kong Hongtai quickly clasped his fists at Xie Qian and explained perfunctorily.

The corner of Xie Qian's mouth twitched, it was really perfunctory.

You also suffered from hysteria due to the sadness of your brother's death. You are sure it is not this guy, because he has no competitors, he is going crazy with joy.

"So that's how it is. Your son's brotherhood is really admirable!"

He also said perfunctory words on his lips, but Xie Qian was thinking in his heart, who is so bold that he dared to rob the Kong family's mine.

As for whether the Kong family's private mining was illegal, he didn't consider it.

These days, it is already an unspoken rule in the officialdom that any big family does not have any profitable business.

After much deliberation, Xie Qian felt that Zhu Houzhao, who wanted to go out to relax on the grounds that he was tired from studying the day before yesterday, was the most suspicious.

After all, in Shandong, no one is brave enough to confront the Kong family.

In this land of Shandong, the only one who is not afraid of the Kong family and dares to hang up the relatives of the Kong family to dry is this little ancestor who is not afraid of anything.

After talking perfunctorily to each other, Xie Qian also knew that the other party had something to deal with, and he was no longer in the mood to chat with him, so he said that he had business to do, and then left.

Seeing Xie Qian's leaving back, Kong Hongtai frowned slightly and thought for a while, then finally sighed and roared at his youngest son who was squatting in the corner.

"You bastard, get the hell out of here!"

Xie Qian, who hadn't gone far, heard the roar and looked back at the yard with a smile on his lips.

"Thank you, Bachelor!"

A shout interrupted his smile, Xie Qian looked back, and saw Kong Hongxu walking over anxiously with a cane in his hand, supported by a maid.

Obviously, the other party also came to find his brother to discuss the mine.

"Mr. Kong!"

Xie Qian cupped his hands in greeting, and then with a smile on his lips, before Kong Hongxu could say a word of greeting, he leaned into Kong Hongxu's ear and whispered a few words.

Kong Hongxu, who was originally smiling, froze instantly, and looked in horror at Xie Qian who was smiling at him.

"What do you mean by that?"

Holding the crutch tightly in his hand, Kong Hongxu looked at Xie Qian in panic.

Xie Qian didn't reply to his words. He glanced at the sky and said with a smile, "The weather is good today, and the moonlight must be good at night. I wonder if the students will be lucky enough to invite Mr. Kong to enjoy the moon, talk about poetry, and discuss scriptures."

Kong Hongxu bit his lip, stared at Xie Qian stubbornly, and under his smiling gaze, he responded with a snort.

Watching Kong Hongxu walk into Kong Hongtai's study, Xie Qian smiled and shook his head and laughed at himself: "I don't know when, so shameless!"

He told me that it is difficult to come up with results based on my data.But I am not reconciled, I beg my brothers to support and encourage a wave!
