Eternal traitor

Chapter 57
"Then what's your reserve price?"

Under the dim light, Ying Zheng asked Li Hua expressionlessly. He also wanted to know how much bargaining chips this evildoer wanted to give to the Gu family.You must know that he is very clear about the income of "Baimao United".He took more than 20 taels of silver by himself, and then gave 5 taels of silver to several people who traveled in the six countries. Li Hua only had 5 taels of silver left in his hands.

Is it possible to buy these dozens of beautiful girls who have not yet been released for 5 taels of silver? ?The answer is yes, these girls are worth at least 10 taels of silver, or even higher.Compensation is simply not enough to meet the basic bottom line.

"The bottom line of my subordinates." Li Hua thought for a while, and then said calmly: "One penny."

"what??"

Ying Zheng seemed to think he had heard it wrong, so he asked again.Ying Zheng couldn't help thinking this way, and the corner of Qin Guangyao's mouth twitched, he was sure he had heard correctly, if Li Hua was not joking, then what he just said was a penny.

A penny, how dare you say that you haven't seen that old man Gu Ran, because the elders of the three dynasties don't even give King Qin face, you dare to give him a penny to send him away.Is it better to say that you are ignorant, or that you are crazy? ?
"Your Highness, I don't want to give him a penny. If he really wants to give it, then a penny is enough."

Li Hua is very aware of these weaknesses of human nature. He understands Gu Ran's weaknesses as well as his strengths, so he dares to say such words.Moreover, Li Hua has been thinking about this question for a long time, so he can give the answer so quickly.

After all, Ying Zheng had forcibly taken those upright officials away, so it was impossible for him to ask him to come back, right?In fact, Li Hua really worked hard. He asked Li Er to ask Ying Zheng to see if he could keep a few upright officials so that the Gu family's wind and rain building could operate normally.However, Ying Zheng told him that he would value these beauties.So no more.

After Li Er came back, he still had Ying Zheng's last words, that he would never come back, and it was really impossible to let the ten accompanying upright officials trained by Li Hua take over.

Li Hua was almost out of breath and vomited blood at the beginning. These people have no value at all when they enter the Wind and Rain Building, not to mention that he has become a person who does not believe what he says? ?

"tell me the story."

Ying Zheng knew Li Hua's talent. In his eyes, although Li Hua was a little crazy, he had his own considerations in everything he said.You might as well listen to what he has to say first.

"Yes." Li Hua responded, expressing his thoughts that he had been thinking about for nearly a month: "My subordinates believe that the "Hundred Trade Union" can harvest such a huge amount of money, and the entire Qin State will see it, although I don't know the specifics. The amount, but it can also guess [-]%.

Such a attracting shop will definitely bring troubles to Mr. Gu Ran. Even though we have been cooperating with Gu Huaye before, in the eyes of outsiders, "Hundred Trade Union" is the Gu family's business.After buying and selling the carriage in the first month, I thought that Mr. Gu Ran would come to me, but he didn't, and he didn't even express any attitude.

But what was even weirder was that Gu Huaye didn't show up either.Gu Huaye is ambitious and adventurous, and after he learned that this store is His Highness's business, he is obviously very concerned about it.But in the first month when "Baimao United" earned more than [-] taels of silver, as the shopkeeper on the bright side, he would also take the initiative to seek me out and show his favor to me, and he also showed his favor to His Highness to show his loyalty.

However, he didn't show up, not even in the Wind and Rain Building, but in the yard of Master Gu's house for a month.Gu Huaye is a smart person, he must know that if he does not take a firm stand, then he will get nothing.Then he didn't show up, it just explained a problem to Gu Ran.

Obviously, the old man Gu Ran imprisoned Gu Huaye, but he did not deny that the "Baimao United" is not the business of the Gu family, so in my opinion, the old man Gu Ran should be in a wait-and-see state, he is considering whether to stand On His Highness's side. "

"Then how do you know that he will definitely be on my side and will accept your penny price?"

When Ying Zheng heard Li Hua's analysis, he suddenly realized, no wonder there was no trace of Gu Huaye in this month, the reason for this is really as Li Hua said, right?
But even so, the King of Qin is still young now, and it is uncertain who will be the next King of Qin in the future. In a few decades, any situation may happen, and these old antiques will not easily stand in line.If the old guy Gu Ran really joins me, then I really have the right to speak in the court.

"He will."

Li Hua smiled slightly. Under the light, Li Hua's smile was even a little weird. Qin Guangyao's chrysanthemum, who was looking at him with force, suddenly tightened. The conversation between Li Hua and Ying Zheng even made him, a general, feel a little chill.This is the court, and this is the relationship between the interests of the superiors. People count people, and if one does not walk well, one becomes a corpse or a puppet. Today's Gu family is the best example.

Under Ying Zheng's gaze, Li Hua continued: "Baimao United is a store full of huge profits, and its annual income is even comparable to the national treasury.

Such an important existence, when the king scares the people, every pair of eyes will be on it.At the end of the first month of business, the Gu family didn't make a sound from the moment.It was doomed that the Gu family had no other way out.

Because, Gu Ran can't give a second Baimao Union. "

"it is good."

Ying Zheng slammed the table and couldn't help admiring Li Hua.He is not stupid, on the contrary, Ying Zheng is extremely intelligent, but in front of Li Hua, who is an outlier, he still seems to have a lack of IQ.Knowing what Li Hua said here, he understood Li Hua's plan.

The "Hundred Trade Union" shop is his own business. Even if Mr. Gu Ran of the Gu family wants to turn against the water, first of all, the "Hundred Trade Union" shop will not fall into the hands of the Gu family, because Li Hua controls the "Hundred Trade Union" All the house title deeds and the secrets of special carriages, but Li Hua is his own, and the shop always belongs to Ying Zheng.

Secondly, even if Gu Ran is determined not to follow him, then at most it will cut off the business of "Baimao United" from the Gu family's name.The big deal is that at that time, I will put this money-absorbing treasury into my account openly and aboveboard.But how would outsiders see it?Gu Ran gave a treasury to the prince, as for the others, do you need to say it? ?
In the end, for the next king of Qin, only myself and Cheng Qiao, that trash, are the most powerful contenders.He took the lead and became the prince.Cheng Qiao has the support of the family behind him, and he can put on a show in front of King Qin, which also has certain advantages.

If Gu Ran doesn't take his side, then he can only rely on Cheng Qiao.But if he seeks refuge with Cheng Qiao, can he take out another "Hundred Trade Union" and give it to Cheng Qiao? ?If not, what would Cheng Qiao do to him? ?
Therefore, Gu Ran has no way out.
