Kowloon wins

Chapter 9

A two-hour morning class passed quickly, maybe it was because she was really moved by Hong Qing's talent, or maybe it was because she didn't want to embarrass others one after another, in short, since Hong Qing answered that difficult question Afterwards, Hu Renyu never asked Hong Qing any more questions. On the contrary, the old thirteenth and fourteenth brothers, who were originally watching the fun, were unlucky, and they were picked out by Hu Renyu from time to time to ask questions The extremely tricky topic made the two brothers feel embarrassed, and they were beaten several times just on the palms of their hands. After class, the two brothers obviously felt that they had lost their nerve, and they didn't even say hello to Hong Qing. They all disappeared without a trace. As for the brothers Yinxu and Yinlu, they were very enthusiastic. After chatting with Hongqing for a while, they were immediately fooled by Hongqing and couldn't find their way. With a rare confidant, she enthusiastically invites Hong Qing to visit her elder brother together.

This is what my brother said?It must be too much!
In the Forbidden City, Hongqing did come here many times in his previous life, but most of them were wandering around important scenic spots. He had never been to the residence of the underage elder brother in Beiwu, so he couldn’t help but look forward to it in his heart. It's just that as soon as I walked to the door of Yinlu's room, my eyes couldn't move. It's not for anything else, just because the little elder brother's residence is really terrible. One word "poor" and two words "poor" ", three words: really poor!
If it wasn't for being in the Forbidden City, Hong Qing couldn't help but think that this place is just a slum. Look, there are only two rooms in a small courtyard, and one is the servant's room of a maid accompanying her. The other room is the main room where Yinlu lives. It is said to be the main room, but in fact it is just a small room of less than twenty square meters, except for a bed, a desk, and a few round stools. There is only one big wardrobe, the walls are empty, and there is not even a picture on it. It is obvious that Yin Lu, a young brother who has just become independent, is really poor enough.

"Brother Qing, what are you doing in a daze, come, sit down, Brother Fifteen, squeeze together, Xiaoying, make a pot of good tea, and use the tea that Emperor Ama rewarded you a year ago."

Yinlu just moved to Elder Brother's house a few years ago. One is that the stay time is short and he has not had time to take care of it. Second, he really doesn't have much money in his hands. Naturally, this house is poor and pitiful. Seeing Hong Qing standing at the door with a strange expression on her face, she knew what Hong Qing was thinking. Then he ordered the only serving maid to make the good tea given by the emperor, as a kindness to the landlord.

"Uncle Sixteen is an elder brother, but he is so frugal, he is really a role model for my generation!"

Sitting on the rickety round stool, Hong Qing suddenly felt that the boss was uncomfortable. Of course, being uncomfortable was uncomfortable, but he would not show such emotions on his face, but stretched out with a smile. With thumbs up, he praised Yinlu with sincerity.

"Thrifty ass! Brother Qing, you are not authentic. If you want to say that we are poor, just say so. You think we are happy to do so!"

It's good that Hong Qing didn't boast, but after this boast, Yin Lu's face that was only slightly flushed turned red like a monkey's butt in an instant, rolled his eyes in extreme annoyance, and cursed angrily.

"Uncle Sixteen misunderstood, my nephew definitely didn't mean it, it's just that I'm so poor..."

Of course, Hong Qing didn't just talk about which pot to open and which pot to mention, but to bring up the topic. Seeing Yinlu becoming angry from embarrassment at this moment, she laughed secretly in her heart, but she showed a surprised and inexplicable look on her face. Said half of the words.

"Oh, brother Qing, you don't know, don't look at it as elder brother, we and the sixteenth brother belong to this!"

Before Yin Lu opened his mouth, Yin Yu who was sitting beside him stretched out his little finger with a distressed face, waved it in front of Hong Qing, and said something helplessly.

"Well, where did this start?"

Seeing that the two elder brothers really took the bait, Hong Qing was secretly happy, but the look of surprise on her face was a little bit more intense, and she asked questions in a bewildered manner.

"Hmph, what's the problem? The two of my brothers live on 20 taels of dry silver every month. It's no wonder they're not poor. They're not as chic as your third master. They have the filial piety and the There are dry stocks from outside merchants to take!"

Although Yinlu is young, he is courageous and has a dry temper. Without any restraint, he dares to say anything, regardless of whether it is appropriate or not, and just opens his mouth.

"Brother Qing, don't get me wrong, Brother Sixteen doesn't mean that. Hey, we and Brother Sixteen look like elder brothers, but in fact, it's just donkey dung eggs that look good on the surface. The brother I'm waiting for is young, and my hands are full of blood. If there is no errand, the gangsters outside will naturally not come to curry favor. Secondly, just these 20 cases of silver still have to connect some joints. Brother Qing, your fifteenth uncle and I don’t have more than five liang of money every month, and the sixteenth brother is better. After all, he just moved out from Erniang’s house, and I can get some money from Erniang’s private house. But it's going to be even worse, this matter is really annoying, don't mention it, don't mention it!"

Although Yinyu is older, when it comes to courage, he is far inferior to his younger brother. This time, Yinlu directly named Yinzhi's name in Yinlu's words, lest Hongqing go back and learn how to speak, the two brothers Everyone had to eat and hang up, so he hurriedly stepped in from the side, pouring out a lot of bitterness.

"How could this be so? Hey, my nephew is ignorant. Don't blame the two uncles. It's just that my nephew is a little puzzled. Could it be that the two uncles don't have any other thoughts?"

Hong Qing didn't come here for fun, but for another purpose, waiting for the two elder brothers to pour out their bitterness. Seeing that the fire was coming, she immediately sent out a test signal.

"This……"

After all, Yinyu was relatively timid, and he dared to complain when he complained, but when it came to specific matters, he didn't dare to say more.

"Brother Fifteen, what are you doing? We two brothers are so unlucky, do you have any ideas? Unfortunately, after much deliberation, I don't have a good idea. What's the matter, brother Qing has a connection?"

My brothers grew up in the palace, the darkest place in the world, and they are all precocious, with very quick minds. When they heard what Hong Qing said, they immediately realized that Hong Qing might have something wrong. The doorway of the money came alive immediately, and he looked at Hong Qing with bright eyes, and asked questions without any scruples.

"Oh, Uncle Sixteen's good question, my nephew really has an idea, how about doing business?"

The test signal sent out echoed, and Hong Qing immediately teased her further while the iron was hot.

"Hey, what did Brother Qing say? If we were really able to do business, we would have done it long ago. Unfortunately, our brothers are all elder brothers. Let alone us, even ordinary bannermen can't do this job." , The family law of the ancestors is staring at the head, unless you can get the identity of the imperial merchant, but that is all under the control of the brothers above, how can it be our brothers' turn, come on, brother Qing, don't you Teased us brothers to play!"

Yin Lu originally had great hopes, but when he heard that the so-called method Hong Qing revealed was actually doing business, he immediately became discouraged, frowned impatiently, and dismissed Hong Qing in a bad manner.

"Heh, Uncle Sixteen, does my nephew seem to be talking nonsense? What is an imperial merchant? After a year of busy work, it's amazing to have tens of thousands of taels of silver in the account. It's just such a small amount of money. Not to mention the two uncles, even my nephew doesn't care, if we want to do this business, we have to go to Dali."

The fish has been hooked, so it's time to change the line. Hongqing did a lot of "fishing" in her previous life, so she is very familiar with it. After a chuckle, she released her trump card.

"Um……"

"What? Big business, what big business?"

As soon as Hong Qing spoke so confidently, the two younger brothers immediately cheered up. Yin Yu was timid and only dared to ask questions, but the courageous Yin Lu couldn't wait to ask.

"Well, let's keep it secret for now. If the two uncles are trustworthy, the nephew will come forward and find someone to handle it. The two uncles only need to invest a hundred taels of silver to occupy a share, and they will have a lot of money to take back later. Hurry up, wait until the little nephew is done, it won't be too late for the two uncles to make a decision!"

If you want to catch a big fish, you can't rely on brute force alone, you have to be able to walk the fish. Only when you have enough appetite, the big fish will not get off the hook easily. In this game, Hong Qing is naturally The best of the best.

"Hey, OK, that's the deal, don't care if he behaves or not, we'll just wait and see how Brother Qing does his job!"

Facing the temptation Hong Qing threw out, although Yinzhen was tempted, he was timid and did not dare to express too much. He just nodded silently, but Yinlu had no scruples at all. He doesn't want to mess around with the brothers above him, he is already satisfied with earning money to live a good life, so he rubbed his hands vigorously and shouted excitedly, The excitement is completely undisguised...
