Concubine's three acres of pastoral garden

Chapter 252 Loaning money (1)
Xianglai and Yu Zixi glanced at each other quietly, and both of them laughed secretly in their hearts. It seems that even a big businessman like Xiu can only be confused when it comes to other countries.

Lian Xiu was stunned for a while and then complained: "Since this is the case, why did the second prince come back so soon? He should help me think of ways in the middle school!"

Yu Zixi was a little unhappy, and said: "Uncle, I am now an envoy stationed in the Beiliao. Originally, I could not go back to the country without the imperial edict. If my father is assassinated, I will make an exception and go back. I have seen my father. After that, there is no reason to stay in Korea."

Xiang Lai also said: "Father, are you confused? The second prince is willing to ask a question because of his daughter's thin face. Is it possible that he will go to the risk of annoying the King of Korea and offending the world? I think you will continue to deal with it Don't really look for him, it's better to go to the palace to see my aunt, let her find someone to negotiate with Gao Li, and explain this matter better."

Lian Xiudao: "Last time you made a fuss about the marriage inspection at the King of Beiliao's place and already made your aunt very unhappy. Later, you and the prince were assassinated in the back alley, and the King suspected your aunt for some reason. Her attitude is not as good as before, she has already told her not to interfere in the court affairs, if I go to find her now, I will definitely bring unnecessary trouble to her."

Xiang Lai said: "It's fine if you don't look for my aunt. You can send someone to ask the envoys stationed in Goryeo from the Beiliao Dynasty to ask them to come forward and explain the matter to the Goryeo court to see if there is any other turning point."

Lian Xiu was right after thinking about it, so he left Xianglai in frustration, packed his things himself, and went to Korea to find the envoy of Beiliao.

Not to mention how Lianxiu struggled after arriving in Korea, but Gao Li finally let go of the idea that Lian Zhao and others are the assassins' party, but the Korean side is still unwilling to let them go, saying that they are harboring assassins still annoys the crown prince of Gao Li .

Lian Xiu temporarily saved the lives of Lian Zhao and others and returned to Beiliao. After much deliberation, he had to find Yu Zixi for this matter. After all, he is the younger brother of the son of Gao Li, and his words are more useful than others.

After returning home, he brazenly begged Xianglai to help him again, and Xianglai asked Yu Zixi to come home again.

Yu Zixi looked at Lian Xiu's dejected expression and said: "Actually...as long as the embassy suppresses the matter, the problem will probably be fine. Most of the reasons why people are not released are my elder brother's fault. My elder brother is greedy. Very well, knowing that the Lian family is the number one wealthy businessman in Beiliao, how could he let it go easily, I think maybe he wants to knock you a fortune!"

Lian Xiu bowed his head and said: "I knew someone must be stuck, but I don't know the place of life in Korea, and I can't figure out the door if I want to negotiate, so I came back to look for the second prince. You can find someone to help me find out. Take a look at the matter over there, how can I release my people and goods!"

Yu Zixi nodded and said: "Okay, since this is the case, I will ask Uncle again, after all, you are Xianglai's father, and I will not ignore your affairs..."

After Yu Zixi promised to help Lian Xiu, Lian Xiu went back and forth between Gaoli and Beiliao, taking out a lot of money, but no one came back.

On this day, Lian Xiu came to see Xiang Lai again, and said with a sad face, "Laier, can I get some money for my father?"

Xianglai said: "But the 400 million taels that my father borrowed before have not been repaid. Why do you have to borrow money again? Do you know that Yuan Dongqi has urged you several times. I know you must have no money now, so I am dragging it for you." .”

Lian Xiu sighed and said, "Oh, there is nothing I can do. The prince of Korea is really black-hearted. He blackmailed me for nearly 100 million taels, and he still won't let me go."

Xianglai was surprised: "Father threw in so much?!"

Lian Xiu nodded depressedly, and said: "This prince is nothing like the second prince. He is greedy. Alas, if he is in power in the future, the people of Korea will definitely have a hard time."

Xianglai smiled wryly and said: "Father is still worried about the people of Korea. Let's talk about yourself. You have sent so much money to the prince of Korea. Even if it is not enough, it should be enough. Why do you still need to borrow it?"

Speaking of Lianxiu, she became angry, and said: "It's not your aunt! Last year, I asked me for 200 million taels, and I procrastinated until now. If I don't give it to her, I will turn against me! "

Xianglai asked strangely: "My aunt has a share in the palace, and Luo Qian also has the prince's monthly salary, which should be enough for them. Why do you want so much money from your father?"

Of course Lian Xiu couldn't tell her that Lian Chongxue used it to raise private soldiers, so he just said: "Oh, she spends a lot of money, the little money given by the palace is not enough, isn't it me who has been raising them all these years?" Mother and son, otherwise she would not be as beautiful as she is now."

Xianglai shook her head, feeling that Lian Xuehua's money must be related to dealing with Luo Jinxing, but she didn't reveal anything, and said: "I think you should take the money from your aunt, you have already borrowed enough. "

Lian Xiudao: "You think I don't want to slow down, but your aunt is almost red-eyed. She sends someone to ask me once a day, and Xiang Jin also comes back to cry with me, saying that if she doesn't give the money, Luo Qian will sell her dowry." .”

Xianglai smiled secretly, Lian Xiangjin thought she married some good man, now she finally tasted it.

Thinking about it, he asked, "How much is father going to borrow this time?"

Lian Xiudao: "No matter what, it costs 200 million taels. Let's deal with your aunt first."

Xianglai said: "Okay, I'll ask Yuan Dongqi again, but it's still the same sentence, father, you have to pay it back quickly, otherwise Huiyuan Bank of Huikang Mansion will be emptied by us, what do you want Yuan Dongqi to do!"

Lian Xiu said: "Okay, as long as the matter with Gaoli is resolved, money will not be a problem!"

Xianglai wrote another letter to Yuan Dongqi.

A few days later, Yuan Dongqi's reply came back, saying that it would be impossible to borrow like last time, but if it was a normal loan, it was still possible.

Xianglai showed the reply letter to Lianxiu, and said, "I said most of them are useless, take a look, and I really don't want to borrow them."

Lian Xiu said: "If you don't want to borrow, then don't borrow, then you can borrow."

Xianglai deliberately said: "My aunt is really too much, she even forced my father into lending money to her, it's not interesting to see what she is doing as a princess."

Lian Xiu didn't say anything, but just reminded him: "By the way, Lai'er, don't tell Luo Xuan about father's loan on behalf of your aunt. He will laugh at your aunt if he finds out."

Xiang Lai said inwardly: "I don't even find some plausible lies to deceive people, but what I say can be a joke, hehe, it's really funny."

But the mouth responded: "Understood, the son will not come for a long time, I think there is no chance to tell him."

This time the loan was the same as last time, Lian Xiu transferred some property to Wang Shi's name, and asked Xianglai to take the property to make a loan.

Once a stranger and twice an acquaintance, this time he didn't let anyone look at Xianglai, and waited in the capital with peace of mind.
