My father is a Confucian sage, but the system forces me to be a crude warrior

Chapter 197 Zeng Anmin: Some people pursue relationships, some pursue money, but I am different, I pursue my partner’s money!
The extremely reckless Liu Xian was very excited.

I didn't even notice the extremely gloomy expression on my father's face.

"How can you be so flustered?!"

Liu Sanjiang loves and hates this son.

What I love about him is that he has already reached the eighth level of Confucianism and Taoism at the age of sixteen.

And he is a famous scholar in the capital!
What I hate is that he is...his personality is too erratic.

Even if I become an official in the future... I'm afraid I won't be a good one.

"Uh."

Liu Xian's face was extremely excited. He did not get angry after being scolded by Liu Sanjiang. He just reached out and hugged Liu Sanjiang's shoulders.

"Guess how much silver I found for you this time?!"

Liu Xian's triumphant voice spread throughout the house.

As soon as he said this.

The merchants who were bidding outside also quieted down.

Everyone, look at me.

Let me look at you.

There was a hint of teasing in their eyes.

"We are the only big merchants in the capital."

"As long as we unite, the Good Friend Chamber of Commerce will eventually ask us for help!"

"Haha! Brother Liu is right. We are the ones who have secured the big bucks for President Liu's mysterious business!"

In the corner, several big businessmen were whispering.

There was even excitement in his voice.

Although I don’t know what mysterious big business the Liangyou Chamber of Commerce is doing recently.

But with their sense of smell, they can make Liu Sanjiang sell his ancestral business.

Definitely not small!

Therefore, those who came to participate in the sale organized by Liu Sanjiang today were already secretly making alliances and were just putting pressure on Liu Sanjiang in a roundabout way.

"I just wonder how much money this kid from his family has raised?"

"Haha! Brother Liu, don't think too much. With his son's connections, he can raise more than he can chew. One or two thousand taels should be no problem!"

"Hahaha! You are so mean!"

"........."

No one else can hear the whispering.

But how could the owner behind the screen in the room not hear it?

behind the screen.

The eldest princess looked outside the screen with a gloomy face.

Her beautiful face was as gloomy as water.

Not a word.

White fingers gripped the handle of the chair.

It seemed that if I just applied a little force, the hand would be crushed into powder...

"Feng Nian, your father knows that you are filial."

"But today is not the time to show off. Let's talk about it when we get back home."

Liu Sanjiang looked at Liu Xian who was extremely excited in front of him.

He sighed in his heart, reached out his hand and patted his shoulder gently, saying:

"Go ahead, don't delay doing things for your father."

"Don't ask about the Chamber of Commerce anymore."

"A few small things won't solve the current problem."

As he spoke, Liu Sanjiang took a deep breath.

Heading outside.

Getting ready to start the auction.

Liu Xian's eyes were a little dazed.

He looked at his father's figure, his voice filled with horror:

"What's going on, Dad?"

"Thirty million taels can't solve it?!"

"You're not going to rebel, are you?!"

……

Liu Sanjiang's face turned a little green.

He turned around suddenly and glanced at the screen with great worry.

Then he looked at Liu Xian angrily:
"What nonsense are you talking about?!"

"What do you mean it can be solved with just 30 million taels... 30 million taels?!!"

and many more!

Liu Sanjiang looked at his son in front of him with a confused look on his face.

His voice even cracked a little.

As his voice sounded.

The whole yard fell silent.

The merchants outside the house all widened their eyes.

Looking at each other.

"Brother Liu...I just heard President Liu say...three..."

"Thirty million taels?!"

"impossible!"

"In the entire capital, only a few of us can raise such a huge amount of money! Where can he find so much money?!"

"Yup!"

"It must be his son who is bragging. Just wait and see. In a little while, a touching drama of fatherly love and filial piety will be staged in this courtyard... a drama of a father teaching his son a lesson."

"That's right. Without knowing what the business is, only a fool would give him thirty million taels!"

"Correct!"

……

in the house.

Outside the screen.

Liu Xian blinked at the father in front of him and said innocently:

"Today my child met Mr. Shen, the president of the Jin Taiping Chamber of Commerce, which is famous in Jiangnan."

"He promised to give me thirty million taels of silver."

……

Liu Sanjiang heard this familiar voice.

And the strange words in the voice.

It feels like this world has become somewhat unreal.

He even picked his ears.

He stared blankly at Liu Xian in front of him.

My own great son.

"You just said... Mr. Shen?!"

"That Mr. Shen who recently opened Wangxianju all over the southern part of the Great Saint Dynasty?!"

"That Jin Taiping Shen Jun?!"

Although Liu Sanjiang's tone was smooth, the disbelief in his voice grew with every word he spoke.

"Of course!"

Liu Xian saw his father's confused face.

The smugness on his face became even more intense.

He could naturally see his father's shock.

After Liu Sanjiang received his son's affirmative answer, his face returned to seriousness, and he looked deeply at Liu Xian:

"Mr. Shen, who has done business all over the south, is definitely not someone you can convince with just a few words."

"What happened?!"

When he said this, Liu Sanjiang's eyes narrowed.

The voice also had a hint of danger.

There was a flash of surprise in Liu Xian's eyes.

He obviously didn't expect that his own father could be so accurate.

He looked at Liu Sanjiang with admiration and said:

"You are right. The reason why Mr. Shen agreed without hesitation to use all of Jin Taiping's wealth to help our Liangyou Chamber of Commerce is all because of one person."

"Who?"

Liu Sanjiang was greatly moved.

He stared at Liu Xian.

"Zeng Anmin, my brother Quan Fu!"

After Liu Xian said this name, the pride on his face became even more intense.

Even his chin was lifted to the sky!
As his words fell.

"Click~"

From behind the screen, there was the sound of wooden utensils being crushed to dust.

……

The eldest princess's face was already gleaming with brilliance at this moment.

Zeng Anmin!
Sure enough it was him!

The people behind the Jin Taiping Chamber of Commerce are indeed the Zeng family father and son!!
She took a deep breath, her voice cold:

"Liu Sanjiang."

Outside the screen.

Hearing this voice, Liu Sanjiang turned around abruptly and asked respectfully behind the screen:

"Please speak, sir."

From behind the screen, the eldest princess's cold voice came:

"Let all those people in the garden go away."

"And I won't sell that Han Blood Jade Pot anymore."

"Give it to Zeng Anmin."

"Also, Liu Xian."

Hear the noble voice inside.

Liu Xian's expression also became extremely respectful.

When he saw his father's respectful expression, he knew the identity of the nobleman inside...

Can't guess.

You can't even guess.

"Please give your orders, my lord."

Liu Xian even bowed to the screen.

"Bring Zeng Anmin here."

…………

"This thing... is expensive?"

Zeng Anmin's eyes were fixed on the objects on the table.

A blood-red jade pot.

The lines on it are like blood vessels in the human body and look extremely delicate!
"Han Blood Jade."

Shen Jun looked at the jade pot, his eyes flashing with brilliance.

There was a hint of solemnity in his voice. "It is rumored that the tea brewed in the Han Blood Jade Pot can help people's blood flow smoothly."

"There are even people who drink tea brewed from this pot all year round and can give birth to children at the age of 90!"

Zeng Anmin's eyes, which had been indifferent, suddenly raised.

He looked towards the blood-red jade pot.

Eyes burning.

His voice was serious:

"My father must like this pot very much."

"Cough cough."

How dare Mr. Shen respond to Zeng Anmin's words?

He just coughed awkwardly and lowered his head in silence.

"What else? Anything else?"

Zeng Anmin turned his head and looked at Liu Xian who was sitting next to him.

Liu Xian still looked at Shen Jun worriedly, then lowered his head and whispered in his ear:

"The noble said he wants to see you."

"Now?"

Zeng Anmin smiled.

As expected.

"Ah."

"Okay, I'll go now."

Zeng Anmin stood up, stretched, and walked out.

As he walked, he said to Shen Jun who was sitting next to him:

"You go back first and wait in the capital for a while. I will send someone to look for you if there is anything."

"it is good."

Shen Jun also stood up and followed Zeng Anmin.

…………

"Da da da."

He paused at the sound of horse hooves.

Zeng Anmin looked at the manor in front of him.

"Apricot Garden."

He watched in amazement.

This garden is bigger than his father's Shangshu Mansion.

Much bigger!
He even felt that this garden was about the same size as the Prince Gong Mansion that he had visited in his previous life.

"It's good for rich people to have fun."

Zeng Anmin followed Liu Xian down the horse and walked towards the garden.

Before long he saw Liu Sanjiang standing at the gate of the yard waiting for him.

"President Liu, we meet again."

Zeng Anmin raised his eyebrows and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Please come in, Mr. Zeng."

Liu Sanjiang looked respectful.

"There's no need to be so formal. Feng Nian and I are good friends. It's not too much for President Liu to call me his nephew."

Zeng Anmin patted Liu Sanjiang's shoulder with a smile.

Then he walked behind the screen.

"Da~"

When he walked around the screen, he saw the figure sitting on the chair.

Still a perfect curve.

It is still an unforgettable beauty.

After the battle in Bifeng Valley, there seemed to be an invisible intimacy between Zeng Anmin and the eldest princess.

"Your Highness is looking for me?"

Zeng Anmin didn't wait for the princess's instructions and sat down on the chair opposite the princess.

After saying that, he took a grape from the plate and stuffed it into his mouth.

The eldest princess watched Zeng Anmin do this.

Not only did I not feel like blaming him for being rude, but I instead felt... inexplicably comfortable.

Unconsciously.

The corners of the eldest princess' mouth curled up into a smile:

"I haven't seen you for a few days, Xihuangtu, how is your investigation going?"

……

Zeng Anmin was silent for a moment, he touched his nose awkwardly, and then said:

"A lot has happened in the past two days, so I haven't had enough time."

The princess's eyes flickered with a smile, she stared into Zeng Anmin's eyes and said:
"I already know about the Qin Mansion."

"I think the Imperial City Division's Bai Ziqing was able to capture the Jiang Kingdom's spy with your help, right?"

Zeng Anmin's face turned serious:

"Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from your Highness's eyes and ears."

As he spoke, he handed the peeled grapes to the princess:
"Your Highness, please."

The eldest princess's face was slightly stunned at first.

Then, she slowly extended her jade fingers to the grapes on the plate and gently opened her jade lips.

I feel quite complicated.

Her expression remained unchanged. After eating the grapes, she continued to look at Zeng Anmin and said intentionally or unintentionally:
"I will pay more attention to the safety of the Qin family and Miss Qin in the future. It is best for you to focus on the imperial examination."

As soon as these words came out.

Zeng Anmin's face looked a little strange.

He seemed to hear a faint...

probably not.

I must be overthinking it!

"Definitely."

Zeng Anmin nodded, then looked at the princess and said seriously:

"I wonder what important matter has your Highness brought me here at this time?"

There was an inexplicable light flashing between the eldest princess's brows.

She looked straight into Zeng Anmin's eyes.

The voice was quiet:

"You don't even know what business it is, yet you dare to let Jin Taiping spend 30 million taels of silver."

"I guess you have already made some guesses?"

As soon as these words came out.

Zeng Anmin took a deep breath, his eyes shining with brilliance:

"Now, in the entire Great Saint Dynasty, no one knows the situation in Bifeng Valley better than the two of us."

"Your Highness has been raising money since the battle at Bifeng Valley. Others may not know, but how can I not guess?"

The princess heard Zeng Anmin's confidence.

The corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

She blinked her eyes slightly, with a hint of smile in her eyes:
"Since you know, I will accept the thirty million taels."

"Your Highness, please do as you wish. I just don't know how much profit I can make from this business?"

Zeng Anmin came here to give money.

The eldest princess stretched out her jade finger, picked up another grape from the plate, and gently put it into her mouth.

After she swallowed the grapes.

The sound echoed in this house:

"Twenty percent."

"make a deal!"

Zeng Anmin stood up at this time and bowed to the princess with a serious look:

"I only know that the princess is doing business, but I don't know what exactly she is doing."

"hehe."

When the princess heard Zeng Anmin's words, she chuckled.

She naturally knew what Zeng Anmin was worried about:
"You don't have to worry about being exposed."

"I was able to do this as a reward after the great victory in Bifeng Valley."

Zeng Anmin's eyes lit up instantly when he heard this.

Since it's a reward, there's no problem!
He breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the princess with burning eyes, and saluted:
"From now on, Anmin will follow your Highness' lead!"

"hehe."

…………

After walking out of Liu Mansion.

Zeng Anmin's eyes were burning.

Become!

This deal is done!

Twenty percent profit!
Sent! !
Zeng Anmin's steps became much lighter when he walked.

"The spiritual mine in Bifeng Valley..."

There was a hint of sadness in his voice.

"From now on, I can be considered to have strangled the cultivators by the throat?"

So cool! !
only……

When Zeng Anmin thought of this, his expression turned strange.

Does this count as me following the eldest princess to get rich?
Taking money from the princess's wallet in disguise?

Tsk tsk.

Some people like to make money.

Some people like to date.

I just like the money of my partner.

"Da da da."

Zeng Anmin hummed an unknown tune while riding his beloved little green horse, galloping on the streets of the capital.

However, when he rode his horse to Shangshu Di's house.

Saw a familiar visitor.

A figure was standing hesitantly in front of the Shangshu Hall, nervously touching the compass at his waist with his hands.

I don’t know whether to go in or not.

"Miss Sai?!"

Zeng Anmin dismounted and looked at the little girl in front of him who looked a little nervous.

"How did you come??"

"Isn't the taste delicious enough?"

When Sai Chuxue heard this, she looked towards Zeng Anmin like a frightened deer.

Her voice was somewhat hesitant:
"No, I want to ask you for help with something."

"Oh? What could possibly make the little immortal from the Xuanzhen Division come to me for help?!"

Zeng Anmin blinked at him and pointed at the gate of Shangshu Mansion and said:
"Come in and talk?"

"it is good."
