Yipin Tang

Chapter 151
"You know me?" Wang Xiang asked back with a smile.

Seeing that Wang Xiang had admitted his identity, the Fusang envoy immediately corrected his face and saluted Wang Xiang respectfully: "Please forgive us for our unintentional offense."

They didn't call him Marquis of Jiayuan, but Lord Judge Wang Xiang knew what they were thinking, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

In fact, after Li Er's birthday banquet ended, Matsudaira Ichiro asked Li Er many times to allow him to send Fusang envoys to study in Gewuyuan, but Li Er dismissed him because the matter of Gewuyuan was decided by Gewuyuan, which made Matsudaira very distressed. The most important purpose of going to Datang is to learn the culture and advanced technology of Datang.

Chinese culture is extensive and profound. Matsuhei Ichiro still doesn't know where to start, but Datang's advanced technology is more intuitive, so he urgently wants to send people to study in Gewuyuan. He has done investigations, and the most advanced technology of Datang is in Gewuyuan.

Later Wang Xiang went to Gaochang, Matsudaira Ichiro could only talk to Li Chunfeng about it, Li Chunfeng naturally did not dare to make decisions privately, after all, there are many things in Gewuyuan that Wang Xiang asked to keep secret.

After waiting impatiently for half a year, Wang Xiang finally came back from Gaochang, but smallpox happened again. Matsudaira Ichiro and the Fusang envoys were so frightened that they hid in the Fusang post all day and dared not go out. This terrible disease is not only found in Tang Dynasty, but also in Fusang. It is common for tens of thousands of people to die from smallpox. How can they not be afraid.

However, it didn't take long for the birth of cowpox to completely solve the smallpox problem for the people of the Tang Dynasty. Half of the patients who had suffered from smallpox before survived. The rumors that Matsudaira Ichiro wanted to send people to study in Gewuyuan became stronger.

He made such a request to Wang Xiang several times, and gave many gifts with a very humble attitude, but Wang Xiang did not agree, but Matsudaira Ichiro did not give up.

If you say that the person Matsudaira Ichiro is most unwilling to offend must be Prince Xin sentenced by the Gewuyuan Court, not only can't offend, but also pleases him everywhere, so the attitude of these fusang envoys completely changed after they learned of Wang Xiang's identity.

"I can't say it's offensive, but besides the theory of first come, first served, we in Tang Dynasty also have the saying that we are willing to buy and willing to sell, and the highest price gets it. Since you haven't made a deal with..."

Seeing Wang Xiang looking at him, the owner of the house hastily said, "Little Lu Defu."

Defu... is similar to Degui's name, Wang Xiang was happy, "Since you haven't signed the paperwork with Lu Defu, this house is still his, and he can decide whether to sell it or not."

"Lu Defu, let me ask you now, my friend is willing to pay [-]% more for your house, who are you willing to sell it to?"

Lu Defu looked at the Fusang people who were still maintaining a respectful attitude and nodded, "Of course I would like to sell it for [-]% more."

Wang Xiang smiled when he heard the words: "You also heard that he is willing to sell for [-]% more. If you still want to buy this house, you can continue to increase the money. I don't mind fair competition."

"Don't dare, the court judged that the Lord likes this house, how dare we compete with the Lord."

Wang Xiang said lightly: "Since you are unwilling to continue bidding, Ning Xiang, you can sign the paperwork with Lu Defu."

"Okay!" Qing'er cheered excitedly. She didn't expect it to be so simple. The Fusang people who were showing off their power just now became respectful when they saw Wang Xiang. Qing'er looked at Wang Xiang with strange eyes. , I thought to myself that it would be good if those deeds of selling their lives were not torn up.

Several fusang envoys glanced thoughtfully at Ningxiang and the others bid farewell to Wang Xiang and left. They felt that Matsudaira Ichiro should know about this matter.

After the envoy from Fusang left, Lu Defu, Ning Xiang and the others signed the paperwork, looked at the house reluctantly, sighed, and said respectfully to Wang Xiang, "Thank you, Lord Marquis."

Wang Xiang waved his hand and said, "You don't need to thank me, your house is worth this money."

Not only is it worth the money, but if there is no other way, he would not be willing to sell the house even if he paid three times the price. The golden nanmu is more expensive than gold, and now the house is sold but the money is still not enough. Where did it come from, all friends who could borrow it have borrowed it.

Doing business for the royal family is of great benefit, but if something goes wrong, it is not just a matter of money. If the gold silk nanmu needed by the palace cannot be delivered in time, it will be a trivial matter to lose money, and if it is not done well, it will be charged with deceiving the emperor.

Ning Xiang and the others bought such a satisfactory house and Wang Xiang was also in a good mood. Seeing that Lu Defu was still frowning, he asked, "Is there any trouble?"

Lu Defu hesitated for a moment before telling the story. He didn't expect Wang Xiang to help him. After all, the gold silk nanmu business needed a lot of money, and it was pure bitterness to say it.

"I also made the worst plan. My family members have already been sent back to my hometown in Yangzhou. If this matter still cannot be resolved, I will take the initiative to ask the government to plead guilty. I just hope that my family members will not be affected."

Ning Xiang couldn't bear to hear what happened to Lu Defu, and said: "This house is really good, why don't I add [-]% more money."

Wang Xiang glanced at Ning Xiang unexpectedly, only to see that her face was calm and her heart couldn't help but move.

In fact, the business of Jinsinanmu can be settled with [-]% of the money. Lu Defu smiled wryly: "Thank you for your kindness, girl. Why don't you go back on the agreed price? The most important thing in our business is integrity."

"What a word of honesty." Wang Xiang laughed, whoever said that there is no business without adultery, he met Kasang in the Western Regions, and now he met Lu Defu.

"Since it's a royal business, it shouldn't be difficult to find a bank to borrow some money when the capital turnover is not good. Why is it so difficult?"

Hearing Wang Xiang's words, Lu Defu looked puzzled: "Who is the Qianzhuang that your lord is talking about? Why did you borrow money from me?" He asked himself if he knew a person named Qianzhuang.

"Who is the Qianzhuang, the Qianzhuang..." Wang Xiang suddenly wondered: "Why, doesn't the Tang Dynasty have a Qianzhuang?"

Not only Lu Defu looked confused, but Ning Xiang and the others also shook their heads.

The dignified Tang Dynasty has no bank!Datang with such a prosperous economy and culture has no bank!Wang Xiang calmed down the surprise in his heart and said, "I need to think about this matter carefully."

He asked Lu Defu not to leave Chang'an for the time being, maybe his affairs will turn around in a few days.

Although Lu Defu didn't know what the turning point Wang Xiang was talking about, he would firmly grasp as long as there was a glimmer of hope, and he didn't plan to leave Chang'an either.

"You sold your house and where did you live?"

"Let's find an inn to stay for a while."

"Well, if you find a temporary place to live, go to Dengxian Tower and tell the shopkeeper there. If things turn around, I will ask him to notify you."

Hearing the turning point again, Lu Defu suddenly had a feeling in his heart that maybe his affairs really had a turning point...
