Chapter 734 Oil and salt do not enter
"Qian Shibo, everything in the past has passed, and everything has to look forward, right? That's the case, the little nephew is not afraid of Qian Shibo's jokes, I have some personal friendship with the two Oiran in Wanhualou and Qunfang Pavilion, this time I went back to Hangzhou and wanted to take them out of Hangzhou to go to the capital, but I didn't think that Wanhualou and Qunfang Pavilion had changed hands, so I could only come to visit Qian Shibo, and wanted to discuss with Shibo. Lin Jue smiled.
Qian Zhongze was stunned for a moment, and said with a faint smile: "Oh? But I don't know which two? I have a lot of Oiran in my building. Six or seven out of ten of the previous Oiran competitions in Hangzhou City were from my building. ”
Lin Jue said: "I don't have any friendship with other people, I only know Chu Xiangxiang and Gu Panpan." I want to redeem them. ”
Qian Zhongze's muscles trembled a few times, and he laughed: "Master Lin, you are really an amorous seed, you want to redeem Chu Xiangxiang and Gu Panpan?" Aren't you afraid that your wife will overturn the vinegar jar? ”
Lin Jue smiled: "That's my business, Shibo doesn't have to worry." The main reason is that I have agreed to them before, and I can't keep my word. ”
Qian Zhongze smiled and said, "But Lin Xian's nephew, these two are the signboards of my Wanhualou and Qunfang Pavilion." You redeemed them for themselves, what can I do with Wanhualou and Qunfang Pavilion? What else to attract guests? You're digging the corners of my Wanhualou and Qunfang Pavilion. It's not a deal, it's going to smash my pot, isn't it? ”
Lin Jue said with a smile: "Qian Shibo is serious, the flower world has always been an alternate between the old and the new, pushing through the old and bringing forth the new. We are all men, and we all understand that men are just trying to be fresh. This is also the reason why each Oiran can only be popular for a year or two before it declines. Like Chu Xiangxiang and Gu Panpan, they have been popular for three or four years, and they are already about to lose their reputation. I dare say that in a year or two, they will be gone. There will be new Oirans popping up, and they will be a thing of the past. Just like those former Oiran ladies in Wanhualou and Qunfang Pavilion, do you still expect these people to support you on the scene? Therefore, Qian Shibo should have taken precautions and cultivated rookie succession. Chu Xiangxiang and Gu Panpan, let them redeem themselves, while they are still a little famous, it is also good to get some more silver. In the future, their fame will be gone, and their worth will be lower, won't the gains outweigh the losses? What does Sebo think of my words? ”
Qian Zhongze frowned and said, "I use you to teach me to do business?" ”
Lin Jue smiled: "I didn't mean that, this is the truth, I'm just reasoning with Shibo." I'm willing to pay a high price to redeem them both. As far as I know, the price on the deed of sale of Chu Xiangxiang and Gu Panpan is 10,000 taels of silver per person. If Qian Shibo is willing to fulfill it, I am willing to pay three times the amount of silver and take out 60,000 taels of silver to redeem them. Qian Shibo, these 60,000 taels of silver are enough for you to cultivate ten Chu Xiangxiang and Gu Panpan. I don't know what you think? ”
"Sixty thousand taels of silver?" Qian Zhongze smiled: "The head of the Lin family is really generous, and he is willing to spend such a large sum of money for two Qinglou women, what an amorous seed." Young people do whatever it takes for women to do so, but it is also a move of affection and righteousness. Originally, I should have fulfilled something like this, after all, it is also the beauty of adults. It's a pity that you're the one who came to talk about it, so there's not much to say. No need to talk! ”
Lin Jue smiled: "Is Qian Shibo still angry with my Lin family?" What's the problem? ”
"Phew! What your Lin family did to my Qian family and how to my daughter, I'm afraid you have forgotten it. On the day you sent my apricot a letter of resignation, I swore a poisonous oath that I would never break with your Lin family and swear to avenge this humiliation. You dare to come and talk to me about such a thing, you are really a pipe dream. Shall I fulfill you? Who will fulfill my daughter? You Lin Jue also had a part in that incident at the beginning, don't deny it, I know that you designed it behind your back. What is my daughter's crime, your Lin family's internal strife has caused my daughter to be divorced. How can this really be true? ”
Lin Jue frowned and said, "Qian Shibo, what happened in the past...... Why dwell? We're talking about a deal now. Doesn't what I just said make sense? ”
"There is naturally a reason, but I would rather let Chu Xiangxiang and Gu Panpan die in my building than fulfill you. Do you want to redeem them? That's a fantasy. Qian Zhongze shouted.
Lin Jue frowned and said, "Qian Shibo, don't be rash. If you think the ransom is less, we can discuss it again. ”
Qian Zhongze couldn't stop sneering.
Lin Jue said: "In this way, I will add another 20,000 taels and 80,000 taels of silver to redeem them, how about it?" ”
Qian Zhongze looked at him coldly and didn't care at all.
"One hundred thousand taels!" Lin Juedao.
"Humph!" Qian Zhongze sneered and was silent.
"One hundred and twenty thousand taels...... Well, or just ...... One hundred and fifty thousand taels. That's a lot of money. Lin Jue gritted his teeth and said.
Qian Zhongze's heart moved, Lin Jue was really generous, and it was really a little incredible that he was willing to pay such a huge amount of money for these two women. 150,000 taels of silver is indeed a huge amount of money, and it only cost 600,000 taels of silver to buy two green buildings by himself. If you can get 150,000 taels of ransom silver, you will already make a lot of money.
Seeing Qian Zhongze's contradictory and hesitant look, Lin Jue sneered in his heart. What kind of family grievances and hatreds are not a matter in front of silver and business. The words in the mouth are all the truth, and the stomach is full of business, which is the norm in today's society. Who can't live with money? Lin Jue felt that soon Qian Zhongze would raise his hand to surrender and pretend to be reluctant to make a deal with him.
However, reality slapped Lin Jue in the face, Qian Zhongze only shook slightly, and his heart immediately became as hard as iron. Silver is indeed attractive, but the grudge with the Lin family is even more infuriating. He couldn't let Lin Jue get his way. Looking at Lin Jue's eagerness to spend thousands of dollars for these two women, he seemed to have a deep affection for Gu Panpan and Chu Xiangxiang. The more this is the case, the more he should not let him get his wish, and the more he should make him feel uncomfortable.
"Lin Jue, don't waste your efforts, let's say 150,000 taels, even if you add a few times more silver, you don't want to get Chu Xiangxiang and Gu Panpan. Silver, just earn it slowly. With the fame of Chu Xiangxiang and Gu Panpan, the two of them gave me a guest for three years, and hundreds of thousands of taels of silver were also in hand. And they're not just here for three years, they're going to be here for the rest of their lives, how much money do they have to earn for me? I want them to pick up customers every day, don't pick anyone, as long as you have silver, you can taste the taste of Oiran. Hehe, doesn't Lin Gongzi sound very uncomfortable? That's right, I just want you to be uncomfortable, so I feel comfortable. Hahahaha. Qian Zhongze laughed.
Lin Jue's face turned black to the bottom of the pot. He knew it was going to be a difficult meeting to make a deal today, but he didn't expect it to be like this. This Qian Zhongze is a perfect interpretation of the phrase 'money is not everything'. I paid such a high price, and the deal was not negotiated. 150,000 taels, it is enough to open a large green building, but unexpectedly, even the redemption of the two women failed.
Qian Zhongze is too stubborn, too obsessed with the feud between the two families, he is determined to go against himself.
"Qian Dongjia, you are too stubborn to do this. It's not really good for you. Chu Xiangxiang and Gu Panpan are also well-known people in the flower world, with my understanding of them, it is impossible for you to force them to pick up customers, they are stubborn, and the gains outweigh the losses under the persecution, which will have serious consequences. I reminded the Qian owner, if you get someone's life, you will be empty of both people and money. Lin Jue shouted coldly.
Qian Zhongze was a little stunned, Lin Jue was really shrewd, and now what happened in his building was just as he said. One is disfigured, the other refuses to accept customers, and threatens to commit suicide in disfigurement. It's as if you've seen it with your own eyes.
"It's just two bitches, they belong to my Wanhualou and Qunfang Pavilion's private property, I can do whatever I want them to do. What can they do? If they don't obey, they will be beaten, and see how hard their skin is. I think I'm unlucky when they die, it's a big deal to spare two coffins, what can I do? Qian Zhongze still didn't give up.
Lin Jue said patiently and coldly: "Qian Dongjia, I call your behavior 'paranoia', you know that you are harming others and yourself, but why do you want to do it?" Wouldn't it be foolish to empty both people and money? Are you a three-year-old child? What's the trouble? ”
Qian Zhongze sneered: "I want to be presumptuous, what can you do with me?" They are the people in my building, I can do whatever I want, but it is not your turn Lin Jue to teach me a lesson. I know, aren't you now climbing Gao Zhi and becoming the son-in-law of Lord Liang, and then becoming an official? So what? Even if you become an official, everything is too reasonable, can an official oppress the people? ”
Lin Jue frowned and said, "What are you doing here?" Although I am an official, I am also a law-abiding official, so why did I come to oppress you? Aren't we here to discuss with you today and make a deal? ”
Qian Zhongze sneered: "You want to bully, but I'm not afraid." You're an official, and I have a backstage. Do you know the new prefect's lord, Lord Kang? He has a good relationship with me. If you are a bully, I will report to the officials. Master Kang said that he had the final say on the affairs of Hangzhou. He didn't see anyone else. ”
"Oh? Kang Zhifu has such a deep friendship with you? Dare to stand up for you? Lin Jue was surprised.
"Hmph, dumbfounded. I don't brag about it, Kang Daren has only been in Hangzhou for a few months, but he is already friends with me. He will take my place in my affairs. I also told you that Lord Kang is not even afraid of Lord Liang. I saw with my own eyes that Lord Kang went to the palace to collect the money of the assistants, which is called an iron-faced selfless. You can ask the prince and see if that's the case. If you really want to make trouble, there is the old prefect Lord Yan above Lord Kang, and there is the emperor behind Lord Yan, who is afraid of who will come? Qian Zhongze seemed to be afraid that Lin Jue would not believe it, and his hands were dancing and spitting at the mouth. There are also noses and eyes.
Lin Jue frowned and was silent for a long time, then nodded: "I said, I came to make a deal with you this time." It doesn't matter if you can't talk about it, but you don't need to talk about what you have or don't. I didn't know it would hurt you so much. If you feel that you can't get through this hurdle, I can apologize to you on behalf of the Lin family. It's all right. ”
"Apologize? Hehe, don't say that I Qian Zhongze doesn't give you face, if you really want to redeem people, it's not impossible. But you have to promise me one condition. Qian Zhongze sneered.
"Oh? What conditions? Lin Jue frowned and asked.
