Became a prodigy in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 170 The Clever Master Lu
"Yes, yes, this is just a matter of one sentence to you, Cheng Chuli. There is no need to earn so much, right?"

"I have given you 1000 million before. Most of us can't afford that much money. If you insist on clinging to the price, you probably won't be able to do this business."

These patriarchs all persuaded Cheng Chuli there.What Cheng Chuli said was too tempting to them.

Cheng Chuli shook his head like a wave drum, and said: "Impossible, absolutely impossible. Although the matter is not difficult for me, the risk I take is too great. Maybe it will end up being ransacked and all the families ransacked.

Therefore, my cheapest can only be calculated as double the price of the previous one.If you think it's expensive, forget it.Anyway, with the previous 1000 million, I am also satisfied. "

"What? Double before?"

All the owners were shocked, they thought that the price was the same as the original one!

Cheng Chuli smiled and said, "What are you thinking? Before, you were just plundering someone, and you were all willing to pay [-] guan. Now the conditions are at least ten times better than catching someone. But I only charge you double the price, which is not good. ?"

The Patriarchs were speechless.

This sounds quite reasonable.But only those who took out the money could appreciate the bitterness of it.

At this moment, the hundred family officials who had just been released standing behind those patriarchs couldn't bear it anymore.They were there to persuade those Patriarchs.

Before, just to get them out, the family was willing to spend money.If you don't want to spend the money now, let the officials inside know.You have to hate the family and their patriarchs.

You know, they are finished, and even their families will be finished with them.

In case they can't think about it, they will reveal some secrets that shouldn't be revealed, and even drag more officials into the water in order to mitigate the crime.That would be no fun.

Anyway, these officials are all qualified experts in persuasion, and they can analyze all kinds of good and bad very well.As if he and Cheng Chuli were in the same group, these patriarchs became more and more tempted by talking about it.

Cheng Chuli laughed, why did he insist on arranging these officials here just now?Just knowing that they are familiar with the officials inside, people from the same family and working in the same department, the relationship and relationship must be very good.

No, at this moment, the effect of these people's persuasion is much better than that of Cheng Chuli's fooling around.

Finally, the head of the Lu family was the first to be unable to stand it any longer. He thought for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Cheng Chuli, I can't make decisions for other families in this matter. But for our Lu family, I can make decisions. Just hurry up." Tell me a word, can you pay me the same price as before? As long as you nod, then our Lu family will do this business with you. "

Cheng Chuli was stunned for a moment, he thought that this matter would have to wait for these Patriarchs to sit together and discuss it.At least it will take tomorrow and the day after tomorrow to give him an answer!Unexpectedly, the one hundred released officials were so powerful.

Cheng Chuli nodded resolutely and said: "Deal. You do the math yourself. There are still a few officials in your Lu family, and then prepare the money. I will wait for you to bring the money at the Good Brothers Restaurant tomorrow.

I guarantee that after receiving the money, they will be reinstated within one to two days.Maybe they can still become my corruption investigation officials and provide me with some clues and evidence of other people's corruption, that is meritorious service.

I'll exaggerate it and report it to them.Taking advantage of the shortage of people in the Ministry of Civil Affairs, it is definitely not difficult to change to a better position.Maybe it's possible to get promoted to the position of Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs even if you go up several levels in succession. "

When Patriarch Lu heard this, he immediately looked at Cheng Chuli with resentment.

Cheng Chuli pretended he didn't see it, got up and said, "Let's do this first, I won't eat. It's getting dark soon, and the curfew will be soon, so I'll leave first. Patriarchs, tomorrow I will be in my good brother's house." The restaurant is waiting for your visit. Anyone who has figured it out will send the money, and the same sentence, I, Cheng Chuli, will act immediately when I receive the money. Let’s go."

Patriarch Lu hates that!I almost couldn't help but rushed forward and strangled Cheng Chuli to death.

That's right, why didn't Patriarch Lu discuss it with those patriarchs this time?I just want to act first and take advantage of this opportunity.

It's better that other families don't want to spend this money!His Lu family is willing to spend.Maybe it's because of this time that the Lu family chose.The strength directly surpassed those of their aristocratic families.

After the wise Patriarch Lu thought it over, he found that money was too insignificant compared to this opportunity.

As long as the Lu family takes this opportunity, they will occupy an important position in the Ministry of Civil Affairs.It will definitely be a matter of minutes to earn back the 200 million yuan.

It's a pity that this hateful Cheng Chuli revealed the crux of the matter with one sentence.As long as the other Patriarchs are not so stupid that there is no cure, it is impossible for him to let the Lu family monopolize this opportunity.

Cheng Chuli didn't care so much, he just wanted to clarify the stakes for him.

He just told those family owners clearly, who would not want to spend this money?In the future, the Ministry of Civil Affairs will no longer have a foothold for their family.

Among the six ministries, the most important are the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

Lost the right to speak of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.In the future, the status of his family among the families will definitely plummet.

Cheng Chuli walked away without looking back.Several Patriarchs wanted to keep him to sit for a while, but he resolutely refused.

Just kidding, the goal has been achieved, what are you still doing here?And it's getting dark soon, even if you have money, it's too late.

Cheng Chuli took the opportunity to go home and have dinner with Cheng Yaojin and Cui Shi.Under Qiuxiang's service, he fell asleep until dawn.Then get up to find Cheng Yaojin and start practicing martial arts.

After practicing martial arts, he took a beautiful bath under Qiuxiang's service.Then I took Yuchi Baolin and more than 100 Xuanjia troops to the Good Brothers Restaurant for breakfast.

More than 100 people came to eat at once, which overwhelmed the cooks of Good Brother Restaurant.Even though two groups of people took turns guarding and eating, the cook of the good brother wine was too busy.

Cheng Chuli and Yuchi Baolin had breakfast together with dozens of Xuanjia soldiers in the only super-large box in the Good Brothers Restaurant.

What Cheng Chuli ate, whether it was breakfast or lunch, was absolutely extravagant.At worst, there will be no less than ten dishes and two soups.The more people, the more meals.

He spoiled Yuchi Baolin and 38 Xuanjia soldiers who were lucky enough to accompany him to have breakfast.

Although they are with Cheng Chuli almost every day, the chance to have dinner with Cheng Chuli is rare.

These guys may have eaten them one by one.Especially Yuchi Baolin, who was talking to Cheng Chuli!Don't forget to stuff a piece of large intestine into your mouth.

"Little brother, why did we come here so early today? Is it to comfort us brothers? By the way, who did you leave the empty seat opposite?"

Cheng Chuli nodded, and said: "I guess there may be a certain patriarch who sent us money early. He sent us money so early and didn't leave a place for him. How can it be passed? I just don't know. Are you sure? If the calculation is inaccurate, then it is a special condolence to the brothers!"

Forehead?
Yuchi Baolin hurriedly put on an open-minded look for advice, and said, "Little brother, Brother Baolin, I have been with you for so long, and I have seen that you have taught many people skills, but I have never taught you Brother Baolin. Today, You also teach you, Brother Baolin, how did you figure out that the Patriarch would send money to you early?"

Yesterday, when Cheng Chuli was negotiating with those patriarchs, Yuchi Baolin was always present.

He only saw what Cheng Chuli said, which was always leading the heads of those Patriarchs.But he just couldn't figure out how Cheng Chuli did it.It is even more difficult to see who would send money over so early.

Cheng Chuli shook his head and said: "It's not my little brother, I'm mean to you, brother, there's really no way to teach this, you just listen more, watch more and use your brain, slowly, you can do it too."

"All right!"

Yuchi Baolin replied helplessly.

At this moment, someone knocked on the box door.

Cheng Chuli raised his voice and said, "Come in."

A Xuanjia soldier opened the door and walked in, cupped his hands to Cheng Chuli and said, "Young Lord, then Master Lu brought a box outside to ask to see you, Young Lord, do you want to see them?"

When Yuchi Baolin heard this, she immediately admired Cheng Chuli.It really made him count, how did he see it?
Cheng Chuli asked: "How many people came here?"

The Xuanjia soldier quickly said: "A total of more than 100 people came, but most of them stayed downstairs. Only four servants who came up with Master Lu came up with boxes."

Cheng Chuli nodded and said, "Go and bring them in!"

After the Xuanjia soldier withdrew, those Xuanjia soldiers sitting at the table opposite Cheng Chuli stood up one after another.Step back and stand behind Cheng Chuli.Half a table was vacant.

Soon, Patriarch Lu was invited in.

Standing on the chair, Cheng Chuli bowed his hands to Patriarch Lu, and said with a smile on his face, "Welcome, Patriarch Lu is here at such a coincidence, we happen to be having breakfast. Patriarch Lu, please take a seat, how about we chat while eating?"

Patriarch Lu also bowed his hands very politely and said: "Thank you, Lord Cheng Xiaohou for your warm hospitality, then Lu would be more respectful than obedient."

After Patriarch Lu took his seat, the four servants who came in with him put the box on the ground and stood behind Patriarch Lu.

The owner of the Lu family was also polite, picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of pig intestines and put it in his mouth, and nodded in praise while chewing: "Yes, it is really delicious. The dishes of your good brother's restaurant are really unique in our Chang'an city. Our Lu family I have been running a restaurant in Chang'an for many years, but I can't match it. I really admire Lu!"

Cheng Chuli laughed and said: "As soon as Patriarch Lu mentioned this matter, I have to say thank you, thank you Patriarch Lu for being merciful! If Patriarch Lu hadn't been magnanimous and replaced someone else, he would have attacked our good brother's restaurant long ago. Our good brother How could the restaurant survive so smoothly?"

The Lu family was speechless, are you thanking me or scolding me?The Cui family can't kill the Hello Brother Restaurant, if my Lu family makes a move, isn't that asking for trouble?

"It's nothing, Young Master Cheng just joked. Young Master Cheng, look, let's get straight to the point, shall we?"

Cheng Chuli nodded: "I'm fine, Patriarch Lu please go ahead."

The head of the Lu family said: "Master Cheng, a certain Lu came here so early today, it is absolutely full of sincerity. Last night, after liquidation, our Lu family still has [-] officials in the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

According to the price agreed with Cheng Xiaohou yesterday, I need to pay Cheng Xiaohou 130 million yuan.Inside this box is gold worth 200 million coins.The extra 70 guan was given to Lord Cheng Xiaohou by our Lu family. "

Cheng Chuli was taken aback for a moment, and asked, "Patriarch Lu, why is this?"

One gift is 70 guan, which is not a small sum.From this we can see how rich these aristocratic families are.

Anyway, losing three to five million guan will definitely not hurt their bones.

The head of the Lu family smiled and said: "Lu only hopes that Lord Cheng Xiaohou will no longer do the same business with other families."

"That won't work."

Cheng Chuli waved his hand and said, "Patriarch Lu is joking. With 70 guan, you want me to give up a business worth nearly [-] million guan. Patriarch Lu, do you think I, Cheng Chuli, are so stupid?"

Although the owner of the Lu family knew that there was nothing to be done, he still tried to say: "Young Master Cheng, maybe you are overthinking. Except for my Lu family, not every family is willing to give this money. In my Lu's opinion , those who can do this business with Young Master Cheng are only one or two more at most. This is still higher. So, Young Master Cheng, if you take my 70 yuan, you may not necessarily lose money."

Cheng Chuli waved his hand and said: "Patriarch Lu, you should know that saying these words in front of me is meaningless. If I, Cheng Chuli, can be fooled by you, I am not qualified to sit here and talk to you. How about it! Now that you, Master Lu, have shown your sincerity, I can also give you a special care of the Lu family.

You can choose seven of the ten people you put back yesterday and give me the list.I will try my best to help your Lu family operate it. Even if they cannot be reinstated, they can return to the Ministry of Civil Affairs and continue to serve as officials.It's just that this position may have to be downgraded by a level or two.

If Patriarch Lu agrees to my plan, he will keep the money.If you don't agree, take the extra money back.I don't even have a problem with taking them all away. "

Now that the money has already been delivered, how can it be possible for you to carry it back?Cheng Chuli must have tried every means to get him to keep the money.

When Patriarch Lu heard this, his eyes lit up. Although he concealed it well, he still couldn't escape Cheng Chuli's eyes.

If this is the case, their Lu family will have many more officials in the Ministry of Civil Affairs than other families.

In this way, their Lu family will take the lead.If it is done well, gradually, their Lu family will dominate the affairs of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

The 70 guan is worth the money.

Patriarch Lu came here with an extra 70 yuan, but he just wanted to try it out.

Unexpectedly, although Cheng Chuli did as expected, he did not agree to his request.But it gave him such a big surprise.

Master Lu suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, and said very calmly: "Okay, then do as Young Master Cheng said. Do you have a pen and paper? Now I will write down the names of the seven people and give it to you."

Cheng Chuli waved his hand, and immediately a Xuanjia soldier ran out to find a pen and paper.

After getting the pen and paper, Patriarch Lu wrote down the names of the seven people.Immediately stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Master Cheng, I will have to work hard for you next time. The old man will leave first."

Cheng Chuli nodded and said, "No."

The head of the Lu family thought he had taken advantage of it!

After Patriarch Lu left, Cheng Chuli laughed.

"Brother Pauline, let's go to the Ministry of Civil Affairs."

Yuchi Baolin was taken aback, and asked: "Little brother, how do you know that no one has sent money over?"

　Book friends!happy New Year to all!forever happy.
