Datang: Stop pretending, you are a peerless expert

Chang'an City Grain Store.

Having learned the lesson from last time, Li Shimin chose the lobby as the meeting place this time.

On this side are Li Shimin, the queen, and Fang Xuanling.

On the other side are Old Man Chen and Aunt Liu, Shangguan Yun, Old Chen and Su Yu.

Five VS five, there is a big fight.

This time Changle and Xiao Sizi hid behind a screen to watch the excitement.

Li Shimin felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy, while the old man Chen talked and laughed happily, and made a judgment.

"Dear family, we're here to make an engagement this time."

"After this engagement, the marriage is considered to be officially settled."

"You all know Xiao Yuyu's character, appearance and family background, so I won't say more."

"Let's talk about the gift money"

Old man Chen sat firmly on the fishing boat, nodded slightly to Li Shimin, and went straight to the point.

Li Shimin was extremely wary of old man Chen this time.

The last time I trusted old man Chen so much, I ended up making myself miserable.

Full of trust, after all, it was a wrong payment.

Li Shimin nodded, and glanced at Su Yu who was crossing his legs.

Old man Chen told Su Yu that he had to behave in a nonchalant manner, as if he wanted to marry your daughter and had many choices.

Moreover, Changle and Su Yu have been together for a long time.

Marrying Su Yu is the best choice for Changle, so don't worry too much, there is a lot of room for bargaining.

Li Shimin knew that it was difficult to deal with, so he said slowly: "Oh, brother, I'll tell you the truth."

"Since you came to propose marriage last time, many important ministers in the court have also come to propose marriage."

"Su Yu knows this, and we usually have business dealings with the current emperor."

"When the emperor destroyed the Turks, we provided him with food and grass."

"So, even though we are businessmen, we still have a place in Chang'an City."

"I've been thinking about it, it's like this"

Li Shimin put on a very embarrassed look, and gave Fang Xuanling and the others a wink, it was time for them to speak up.

Fang Xuanling said this time first: "It seems that your sincerity is not enough."

"Although you can't just look at money, but there is no sincerity without money."

Fang Xuanling was right, but he used too much force.

The real purpose was stated immediately.

"Oh, so it's about money."

Old man Chen laughed.

Aunt Liu nodded slightly with a clear expression, but she refused to give up an inch.

Li Shimin had expected that this negotiation would be very difficult.

"That's right, important ministers in the court, such as Zhongshuling Fang Xuanling, he told me that he is willing to pay a lot of money."

Li Shimin just opened his mouth to talk nonsense.

Fang Xuanling felt very sudden, why did she come to propose marriage by herself?
"There is also Du Ruhui, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and his son Du He is also about to get married."

"I heard that Little Lizhi is good. His family sells everything and wants to spend a lot of money as a bride price."

What Du Ruhui said was serious.

Wei Zheng was dumbfounded.

To actually say that he spent a lot of money to propose marriage, the two of you are ruthless enough.

What Fang and Du said made Li Shimin very satisfied. At this time, Wei Zheng felt that he had to show himself.

"Yes, there is also the counselor Wei Zheng."

Wei Zhenggang was about to talk nonsense.

But Su Yu said, "Old Li, Fang Xuanling's eldest son got married, and there is only Fang Xuanling left. This guy is a disaster, please don't touch him."

"As for Du Ruhui's son Du He, this guy will be a traitor in the future, if you marry Xiao Lizhi to him, it will be a disaster for your family."

The originally lively bargaining scene suddenly became cold.

Su Yu's words were like a bolt from the blue.

Fang Xuanling was also shocked at first, saying that his son Fang Yiai was a scourge, which was hard for him to accept.

But I said it once before, Fang Xuanling always remembered it and accepted it.

Du Ruhui felt his head was about to split open.

His son was not an ordinary crime of malfeasance, but a rebellion.

Rebel.
On a hot day, Du Ruhui felt a chill down his spine.

Li Shimin and his gang looked at Du Ruhui.
This look is asking: Are you planning a conspiracy behind your back?
Du Ruhui was very wronged, his son is doing well now, why didn't he do anything.

"Master Su, Du Ruhui and I know each other."

"Although his son Du He is not too accomplished, he is not a traitor either."

"I've never heard of them rebelling."

Du Ruhui said struggling.

Old Chen sneered, "Old Du, which rebel will tell you?"

"You are not Du Ruhui."

Du Ruhui was stunned and speechless, so he could only turn his head and say to Li Shimin, "Boss, I've never heard of any signs of rebellion."

Li Shimin coughed twice and remained silent.

Su Yu never missed what he said, saying that your son rebelled, and he will definitely rebel in the future.

Du Ruhui collapsed, regretting that he joined in the fun.

It was all done by Fang Xuanling, who used his son to fool Su Yu.

Now, your son is a scourge, and my son is a traitor.

Fang Du and Du were completely dumbfounded.

If I knew this earlier, why bother to talk nonsense.

Although old man Chen is a countryman, he doesn't know anything about the imperial court.

He didn't even understand the official position just mentioned.

But he can read words and expressions, and he can see through the atmosphere of the scene at a glance.

"Xiao Li, the married daughter must be entrusted to the person in charge."

"Our little Yuyu is the most responsible."

"The book you mentioned just now, don't look at it as a high-ranking official, if you offend the emperor one day, the whole family will ask and kill you."

"A companion is like a tiger, you have to think clearly."

"Little Lizhi lives with my Xiaoyuyu, the most comfortable."

"Son and daughter, don't you just want to be comfortable."

Old man Chen spoke earnestly, and what he said was all for Li Shimin's good.

Aunt Liu answered, "Big sister, I'm not bragging about you, you know it too."

"There are a lot of high-ranking officials in our Zhuangzi. If there is a relative who is an official, we have more Xiaoyuyu."

"Like that...that little fat man."

Aunt Liu wanted to say Di Renjie, but couldn't remember the name.

Old Chen reminded, "It's Di Renjie."

"Yes, Di Renjie, this little fat man is still Dali Siqing, I heard that he is a high-ranking official."

"If you want to have a relationship with an official, of course our Xiaoyuyu is the first choice."

Aunt Liu will also show off.

Li Shimin pondered for a long time, feeling that the reason did not make sense, so he overturned his pretense.

Then all that's left is to sell miserably!

"Brother."

When Li Shimin opened his mouth, tears flowed down his face.

Old man Chen was startled, why did he cry all of a sudden.

"Xiao Li, how do you say that? On a happy day, why are you crying?"

"We all agreed to marry your daughter, you should be happy."

"The bride price is just a meaning, don't take it too seriously."

Old man Chen is not stupid, while comforting Li Shimin, he bit his tongue firmly.

After hearing this, Fang Xuanling called out to the experts, next time he married a wife, he must ask old man Chen to help him negotiate the price.

Li Shimin has 1 MMPs in his heart.

I want Su Yu's money, you stingy ass.

It's not that he doesn't have money, why don't you give me some pocket money.

"Brother."

Li Shimin wiped away tears.

"Don't look at how big my grain store is, but the business has not been good."

"The emperor was still fighting back then, but now the country is peaceful and the people are safe. I have no business to do."

"I'm sitting on nothing, I just hope that Xiao Lizhi will get married and earn some money to make up for the shortfall."

Li Shimin said it badly.

Changle and Xiao Sizi listened behind the screen, shouting that the father is so shameless.

"Wow, Father is working too hard for the dowry money."

Xiao Si said with contempt.

"It seems that I really cried, tsk tsk, my acting skills have improved, and I burst into tears."

Chang Le sighed.

The queen felt that she wanted to add to the drama, picked up her sleeve and wiped it twice, and cried too.

"Old sister-in-law, you don't know."

"My husband looks quite serious, but he actually likes to find flowers, ask Liu, eat, drink, and gamble. We have tens of millions of shortfalls in our accounts, and I'm too embarrassed to say it."

The queen cried and cried, very sad.

When Lao Chen heard this, he immediately became angry, pointed at Li Shimin and cursed: "Old Li, so you are this kind of person."

"Madam is so nice, you still go out to drink flowers and wine, see if I don't beat you to death."

Old Chen's sense of justice really exploded. He felt that it was too much for a woman as good as the Queen to hang around outside.

He got up and wanted to rush up and hit someone.

Shangguan Yun was so frightened that he quickly grabbed Lao Chen's ear.

"Sit down! Shut up!"

Shangguan Yun scolded.

Lao Chen sat down obediently.

"Hey, I'm sorry, good wife."

"But this debt has already been owed, so what do you say?"

Li Shimin wiped his tears and said.

Su Yu couldn't stand it anymore.

"Okay, Lao Li, I'm not a stingy person, as for this."

"I gave you so much when Old Chen married Sister-in-law Yun, so naturally I won't miss you when I marry Little Lizhi."

"How much do you want, tell me."

Li Shimin also tried too hard, in order to ask for a bride price, he actually said that he was full of all kinds of poisons, Su Yu couldn't stand it.

Old man Chen said: "Xiao Yuyu, you can't fall by the wayside."

Wei Zheng got up, pulled old man Chen, and said with a smile: "Brother, we have good wine here, do you want to try it?"

Old man Chen wants to bargain and has no time to drink.

"Thank you, Old Wei, wait a minute, I'll tell Xiao Yuyu first."

Old man Chen wanted to tell Su Yu not to let go.

Wei Zheng kept pestering old man Chen, and said with a smile, "My wine was buried under the plum tree ten years ago."

Wei Zheng chattered nonsense and entangled old man Chen.

Li Shimin shouted that this is the correct operation.

Fang and Du are idiots, they can't say anything.

"Brother, son-in-law, brother-in-law, I don't want more from you, just this amount."

Li Shimin was happy, showing four fingers with two hands.

The role changed too quickly, and Li Shimin couldn't turn his words around.

Old Chen exclaimed: "4 million yuan?"

Shangguan Yun said contemptuously, "Shut up."

It was not enough money to marry Shangguan Yun back then, let alone a princess.

Su Yu said indifferently: "Okay, 20 billion copper coins and 2 catties of gold."

Su Yu knew how much Li Shimin wanted.

The queen smiled pleasantly and said, "Oh, the son-in-law is still sensible, so it's settled."

Seeing that the matter was settled, Wei Zheng immediately let go of old man Chen, sat down and laughed.

The price is set, so it's useless to say more.

Old man Chen shouted that they were too treacherous.

Li Shimin smiled and said: "Brother, a gentleman can't be chased after a word. Su Yu promised, and he can't go back on his word."

Words spoken and water spilled cannot be taken back.

Old man Chen asked angrily: "Old Wei, what about the wine you're talking about?"

Wei Zheng laughed and said, "Well, it was buried under the plum tree, but I forgot where."

"When I find it, I'll have a drink with my brother."

Old man Chen said angrily: "Old Wei, I won't give you food when you arrive at Sujiazhuang."

After receiving the gift money, Li Shimin was satisfied.

"Then let's have lunch. Today, I fried all the bacon."

Li Shimin laughed.

Chang Le heard it from behind the screen, pouted and said, "Father is too shameless to ask for so much."

The little si said: "Isn't it good for the father to ask for more gifts? We are rich now."

Chang Le said: "You are stupid, if I marry, that is my money."

Little Si suddenly realized, and said, "That's right, next time I will ask for less dowry."

The two princesses, who haven't passed the door yet, have already started to care about whose money it is.
