"How did you come up with the idea of establishing friendship with this prince? This matter..." Elder Tian hesitated for a while, and said: "You can't do more."
"We, as literati, need to take the right path of the imperial examination and behave properly, so that we will not be talked too much."
He dialed appropriately, knowing that Tianyou could understand.
"Teacher, you can't be too correct, just talk about today's matter, haven't you heard what the prince said, if you come to visit the prince in the future, go to him directly, don't wait like we are today...
Didn't you catch what he said?
The prince may not even know that you came this morning...
Teacher, there is a steward Zheng in the palace, do you know? This person has a problem. "
Master Tian: "Guan Zheng?" He said slowly, "It must be Guan Shi who is in charge of the inner courtyard of the palace. I've heard of it."
He said softly: "The princess's natal family is also surnamed Zheng."
Yan's second child now understands that he is not a close person, nor can he be an internal manager.
"You said he has a problem, what problem?" Mr. Tian asked.
Yan Laoer then talked about what he did in the morning, and that Guanshi Zheng came to talk to him out of nowhere.
"...I'm waiting for the person behind the deal who has the final say. The amount reported to the grain store is not low. Ordinary grain stores can't carry so much goods. There are two grain stores with relatively large plates that can eat it. But I have to wait a while, they want to transfer the goods, and they even inspected my money, afraid that I don't have the money to pay the deposit, so I will toss them to play, hehe!"
Thanks to his daughter, he brought so much silver with him, hahaha!
Master Tian nodded: "You revealed your wealth, and you said at the grain store that you want to collect a large amount of grain. If they want to sell it, they will come to you. Before that, they will definitely find out about you first."
"I feel that when I came out from the government office and went to the street to inquire about the grain store, some people followed. As for our bottom line, it's all on the bright side. It just depends on whether they dare to sell it." Yan Lao Er said with a smile.
"In God's favor, would they dare?" Master Tian asked with a smile.
"Why don't you dare? Teacher, you know about this. I think they are not strict in their actions. I can see that they are relying on, courageous, and overstretched after going through the palace today." Second Yan touched He touched the baggage beside him, which contained fifty taels of cash that his daughter-in-law asked his daughter to bring.
"Teacher, how much will the prince give you?" He asked.
Master Tian smiled and shook his head: "You, guessed it through the wooden box?"
"Didn't the teacher talk about raising money before..." Yan Lao Er laughed and said, "I didn't expect you to come to the palace to raise money."
"Your teacher has been an evil guest who hit the autumn wind today." Grandpa Tian sighed softly: "It's not easy for the prince, take a look at this wooden box..."
There was a little more emotion in his eyes: "It's much smaller than it was three years ago."
Yan’s second child: …
It turns out that this is not the first time for you.
"Teacher, can I open it and have a look?"
"Open it."
Yan Laoer slowly opened the wooden box, and Yan Yu also came over, looking at it without blinking.
One five hundred taels, four fifty taels of silver bills.
"Seven hundred taels!" Yan Laoer was a little excited, hey, isn't there enough money to buy grain?
"These are from the government, no, he said to lend them to me." Mr. Tian took out the banknotes in his sleeve.
Two hundred and two silver notes.
"Teacher, you are amazing!" Second Yan exclaimed.
"Well, since you've put on your face, you might as well go a few more places, God bless, let's stay for another two days."
"Return to the hotel?"
"live."
"Go home and live. If your mistress knows that I have the cheek to go door-to-door, she will definitely go with me. It's fine to go back to Huju for the teacher, but your mistress lives in the city, and her face...
I live in the inn, so that people know that I am seeking for the public, not for private. "
"Then teacher, let me change the room." Second Yan said.
He thinks the house price is too high, so he wants to lower it.
Master Tian: "No, whose property do you think the inn we are staying in is owned?"
Yan's second child blinked, "It can't be... Wangfei's?"
Master Tian just looked at him and didn't speak.
"Teacher, you are an official in Huju, how do you know so much about the situation in Fucheng?" Yan Laoer asked in surprise.
"Of course someone told me to be my teacher." Elder Tian said, "It's inconvenient these few days. I'll take you to see me when I have a chance in the future."
…
Back to the inn, after a brief meal, Mr. Tian began to visit his colleagues.
He didn't want the old woman at home to follow him, and even the disciple Yan Lao Er didn't want to take him with him, so he went out alone, returned after dark, washed up and went to sleep, and went out again at dawn...
What Yan Lao Er can do is to try his best to handle the matter of buying grain.
He didn't go anywhere today, and has been waiting in the inn.
When it was almost noon, the clerk brought him a message, saying that he was invited to drink tea in a teahouse two streets away.
After Yan's second child arrived, a grain merchant who claimed to be surnamed Mi was waiting there.
This surname is really simple and clear.
The rice and grain merchant said that he heard on the street that he wanted to buy grain, and that he had grain in hand, and he needed money urgently because of family problems, but he could sell it at a low price.
One to sell and one to buy.
Both parties are well aware.
Yan Laoer didn't say a word of nonsense, first asked him how much he had, and then negotiated the price.
The other party wanted to sell more, but Yan Lao Er was too difficult to deal with. In the end, the two parties settled on a figure, which was higher than what they sold in previous years, but not too much higher, and both parties were satisfied.
The time and place are agreed upon, and the payment is paid and the delivery is made. This deal is considered a deal.
That person didn't want any deposit to sign the contract, and Yan's second son didn't mention it, and left the teahouse one after another in a tacit understanding.
Yan Lao Er took the first step and walked back to the inn quickly.
Yan Yu kept looking down from the window, and waited in the room when she saw her father walking this way.
"Father, why are you walking so fast and someone is chasing you?" Yan Yu was slightly excited.
"No, I'm afraid I'll be late to pay for the tea." Yan Laoer said casually.
Yan Yu: …
"Father, you did the right thing, and you will hold them for every penny!" Yan Yu clenched her small fists.
"Are you ready?"
"Well, three days later, at Dashiqiao, we trade in the middle of the night, paying the money with one hand and the food with the other." Yan Laoer drank a glass of water.
"Hey! I really feel a bit sneaky and doing bad things." Yan Yu laughed and said: "Don't be depressed, dad, let's pass this level first, and don't think about other things."
Yan Er Er turned the teacup, "Your master is someone who can shout 'swear to defend the city', but now you go door-to-door to collect money, I don't feel good in my heart."
Yan Yu was silent.
"This batch of food should not be enough. In a few days, I will take some people to Longxing and Fengming. I took them to Guiyuan last time. This time let them go by themselves. In the future, we will go separately and blossom in multiple lines.”
