Came to the living room, Xiao Zhao Wang Ye and Xue Mi were drinking tea boringly inside, these two people did not come together, one before and one after, the difference was five or six minutes, the two met in the living room, and they were stunned for a moment, and then understood that the other party was their biggest opponent today.

After going back yesterday, Xue Yu reported the situation of Huoyun Stone to his father Xue Pre, Xue Pre was overjoyed, and ordered him to get his hands on it at all costs, and called him up early this morning, so that he immediately rushed to Liu Han's side, he rushed to Liu Han's mansion in the city, and learned that Liu Han had arrived at the manor outside the city yesterday, so he immediately rushed over, but when he entered the living room, Xiao Zhao Wang Ye was already drinking tea in the living room.

Xiao Zhao Wang Ye did not have his father's urging, he was the supreme person in charge of Zhao Wangfu in the imperial capital, but he went out to Liufu early this morning, and then almost after the city gate was opened, the first people to go out of the city.

Xiao Zhao Wangye obviously didn't expect Xue Mi to come so early, with his understanding of Xue Mi, this person would not get up until the third pole of the day, but he didn't expect to arrive so early, it seems that the other party is bound to get the fire marble.

Xue Mi was also aware of this, and wondered how to persuade the other party to make him give in.

The two looked up at each other almost at the same time, and spoke almost at the same time:

"Little Prince"

"Brother Xue"

The two of them first looked at each other and smiled, and then sighed almost at the same time, this time Xue Mi took the lead.

"Little Prince, this matter of the Fire Marble, please let the little prince let me, Xue is grateful. ”

Xiao Zhao Wang Ye smiled faintly, and opened the folding fan in his hand with the sound of brushing: "Brother Xue, I also beg for the same, if Brother Xue can give in, I will definitely turn to my father and report the virtue of my son to the emperor." ”

Xue Mi was blocked back, if it was a different person, he could still force each other with momentum, but Xiao Zhao Wang Ye couldn't, after all, people are clans, and his Xue family has lacked a pillar of support since his grandfather Xue Zong passed away, and his father Xue Yu is just a three-rank idle general, if it weren't for my sister being the crown princess, the Xue family may have declined, and with the emperor seriously ill and the prince in charge of the country, the Xue family is about to get up, Xue Mi has three points of confidence to ask Xiao Zhao to give in, otherwise, I am afraid he will not come at all today.

Xue Mi shouldered his father's order, and it could even be said that it was the fate of the family, so he naturally would not give up, he condensed a little and said: "Little prince, open the skylight and say bright words, we want the same purpose of Huoyun Stone, all for the emperor, the palace and I who get it, and finally give it to the emperor, the prince is already unreachable, even if it is sent, it is impossible to go further, and my Xue family is different, this is extremely important to my Xue family, and please Xiao Zhao Wangye look at the face of the prince to give a thing or two, if the prince has any requirements, I will definitely report to His Royal Highness the prince." ”

This is more clear, your King Zhao has already become a vassal, even if you get it dedicated to the emperor, the emperor will not be able to give you a reward, and my Xue family is the prince's father-in-law, and the prince is in charge of the country, what do you want.

Xiao Zhao was silent, which meant that he agreed with Xue Yu's opinion, but he didn't know why his father wanted this thing, could it be that with this thing, he could let his father return to Beijing?

Xiao Zhao Wang Ye and Xue Mi both live at the top of the empire, their lives are deeply affected by the court situation, and they know that those things are possible, those are impossible, even if Xue Mi promises to let King Zhao return to the imperial capital, Xiao Zhao Wang Ye can't believe it.

Xue Mi saw that Xiao Zhao Wang Ye was a little loose, so he further said: "Little Wangye, we have been friends for many years, what kind of person am I, Xue Mi, Xiao Wang Ye should also know, if Xiao Wang Ye can give in today, if there is something in the palace on another day, I Xue Mi will do my best to help." ”

Prince Xiao Zhao was silent for a while, and sighed: "My father once passed on a book, if there is news of the fire cloud, I must tell him, and I must buy it, I have already reported to my father last night, so I ask Brother Xue for forgiveness." ”

Xue Mi's eyes flashed, and then disappeared, he stared at Xiao Zhao Wangye, Xiao Zhao Wangye also looked at him helplessly, Xue Mi was a little excited in his heart, and said in his heart I have finished saying good things, since you don't appreciate it, then we will rely on our own means.

Xue Mi was too excited, so he didn't notice that there was a hint of doubt in Xiao Zhao's eyes, obviously not believing him.

"The two brothers came early. Liu Han came in with a smile, and when he saw the two of them facing each other, he understood after a little thought, and he sighed that it was a pity that he had lost an opportunity to make a lot of money.

"Why, haven't you had breakfast, do you want to have something here? Liu Han was still smiling, as if he hadn't seen the spark between the two.

The guards quickly brought breakfast, and Liu Han picked up a piece of cake, the breakfast in this house is a combination of Chinese and Western, dry cakes, thin porridge instead of milk tea. In the Dajin for many days, Liu Han also knew the living habits of the Dajin, the ordinary people here eat two meals a day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, and even some poor Shu and Shi clans are like this, only rich families eat three meals a day.

In the face of Liu Han's kind invitation, the two of them looked away, looked at Liu Han and smiled reluctantly, in his previous life, Liu Han paid attention to chewing and swallowing slowly, paying attention to demeanor, after coming here, after the tempering of the killer battalion, the meal became rough, and he drank porridge and chewed on cakes, which made people have a great appetite.

But Xiao Zhao and Xue Mi didn't have that thought, and the two of them spoke almost at the same time:

"Brother Liu, that fire marble.."

"What time is this, yet..."

Liu Han put down the bowl, hurriedly swallowed the things in his mouth, almost choked, hurriedly drank two sips of water, patted his chest, and finally smoothed the lump of qi that was easily blocked in his chest, and then shook his head and said: "Two brothers, don't worry, I hurried over yesterday to count the inventory, to be honest, a lot of it was cleared, Liu Song!"

Liu Song walked in quickly, Liu Han instructed him to carry the box in, Liu Song turned around and went out, and soon brought someone to carry two boxes in, Liu Han will finish breakfast, is wiping his mouth, watching them come in, signaling to open the box.

As soon as the box was opened, the temperature in the room suddenly rose, as if a fire had been lit in the room, and the room was burned red.

Xiao Zhao Wang Ye and Xue Mi came over at once, looked down at the stones in the box carefully, these are big and small, one box is more, the other is less, the more is mainly red, the less is vermilion, and the more is red.

(Correction: There is an error in the previous text, the condition of the lower fire marble is white, the middle grade is vermilion, and the lower grade is red)

Liu Han came over with a smile: "I'm right, this is the top grade, this is the middle grade, and they are all the best fire marbles." ”

Xiao Zhao Wang Ye and Xue Yu obviously hadn't seen the fire marble, the two of them stared at the stone, felt the heat emitted by the stone, and felt that there was nothing wrong, at least it must be the fire marble.

Xue Mi breathed lightly, he had an argument with Xiao Zhao Wang Ye before, but he was still worried in his heart, whether this Liu Han was bragging, if he was bragging, then he would be embarrassed.

At this time, when he saw that there was really a fire marble, his heart suddenly became happy, and when he looked up, he saw the face of Xiao Zhao Wangye, and this face was also pleasantly surprised.

"Brother Liu, 20,000 silver!" Xiao Zhao Wang Ye spoke first: "I want it!"

Liu Han was stunned, and before he could speak, Xue Yu shouted first: "Thirty thousand silver, Brother Liu, I still recommend you to the prince, how about it?"

Xiao Zhao was stunned for a moment, and then frowned: "The conquest is a national official weapon, how can you give it to each other privately! Brother Liu, 50,000 silver, I can recommend you to my father and be an official in my Zhao country." ”

Yes, this is not a private gift.

Before Liu Han could speak, the price rose to 50,000 silver, this imperial capital is different, and there are many rich people.

"Little Prince," Xue Mi had a gloomy face, thinking that the Xue family and Zhao Wangfu were richer, it was a humiliation, Xue Mi immediately realized his strategic mistake, and immediately changed his words: "I am the representative prince of the acquisition, please don't fight." ”

Xue Mi played the banner of the prince, but Xiao Zhao did not sell it, and stretched out his hand: "Is there a warrant from the prince?" Take it out, if you can take it out, I will turn around and leave, and I will never fight with you." ”

Xue Mi was arrested, he took the prince's warrant, and the prince didn't know about it at all. Seeing that he couldn't frighten Xiao Zhao, he turned to look at Liu Han: "Brother Liu, I really hope to make you a friend, if not, I can ask the prince for an edict to levy this fire marble ,.."

"You don't scare him," Xiao Zhao immediately exposed Xue Yu: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is merciful, how can he do such a thing of plundering the people's wealth." Brother Liu,.."

Seeing that the two were about to argue again, Liu Han hurriedly stopped: "Little Wangye, Brother Xue, the two of you, don't fight, don't fight, fight back and forth, hurt our feelings." How about you?"

The two looked at each other, then nodded at the same time, Liu Han kicked down the wooden box: "There are a lot of fire marble stones here, and the two of them can be half of one person, so that they can go back to make a difference, and they won't hurt their harmony, how about this method?"

Liu Han felt strange, how could the two of them not think of such a simple method?

The two of them looked at each other, but they didn't speak, Liu Han felt different, frowned, and looked at Xiao Zhao Wangye: "Little Wangye, you are the prince," and looked at Xue Yu: "Brother Xue, you are the younger brother of the crown princess, you are all in high power, I, but a grass people, any of you can pinch me to death with your fingers, so I dare not offend anyone, give it to whomever and not give it to whom, I can't say it, and I don't dare to say it." ”

Speaking of this, Liu Han stopped talking, he had already made it clear that if they could force back the other, he could sell all the fire marble stones to him, but if he wanted to make this decision, he wouldn't.

After saying it clearly, Xiao Zhao and Xue Mi were like two cows, and they stood up again.

Threats, useless.

Temptation, everyone is rich and rich, no one should tempt anyone.

"Yo, what's going on?"

There was a sound of undersmoking at the door, Liu Han didn't need to look up to know who it was, and sure enough, Xiao Zhao said it for him.

"Brother Qiu, do you want this fire cloud stone too?"

"What do I want this to do, I don't need to fight for merit, I don't want to open a jewelry store, why do I want this. Qiu Ge spoke, swayed in, and squatted curiously in front of the wooden box: "Brother Liu, is this the fire marble?"

"Yes," Liu Han replied weakly: "Little Lord and Brother Xue want it, I will let them divide it equally, but they don't do it, you can help me talk about it." ”
