My surname is Wang, my neighbor Wu Dalang

Chapter 153 Never seek skin from a tiger!

Han Yan smiled and said nothing.

The reason why she came to Murong's house was not only hinted by her grandmother, Princess Qi, but also because she wanted to share her husband's worries.

The State of Qi knew that Wang Lin wanted to form the Subduing Tiger Cavalry, what he lacked most was war horses, and Murong's family was the only merchant channel in the Song Dynasty that could obtain war horse trade.

And Murong Cheng had disclosed such news to the Han family through others, which obviously meant that Murong Cheng had plans for Wang Lin.

So Han Yan came.

In fact, she basically guessed the Murong family's thoughts.

Murong Cheng pondered for a long time before saying: "Ma'am, [-] war horses is almost impossible nowadays. At present, the Liao people, the Jin people, the Xixia people have blocked me from the Song Dynasty, and the channels of my Murong family are only once a year at most. The trade of [-] horses is really unbearable... Madame, this is definitely not a matter of money!"

Han Yan smiled: "I know it's difficult, but I believe in Murong's ability."

Murong Cheng smiled wryly: "Madam really thinks highly of our Murong family."

Han Yan continued to laugh without saying a word.

She thought that Murong Cheng was an old fox that was difficult to deal with, and the reason why her husband was unwilling to continue talking with him was because he was worried that he would open his mouth like a lion, so she volunteered.

Murong Cheng hesitated for a long time before saying: "Madam, I don't know how much money the envoy can give..."

Han Yan was calm as usual: "My husband governs the six prefectures in Shandong, all of which are rich and prosperous. Although we can't get much money for now, it won't be a problem in time. Although Patriarch Murong said clearly, you can discuss how much it will cost. "

Ke Yumeng felt helpless.

I thought that the bride of Murong's words were so dripping, and her scheming was no match for my old fritters in the mall.

I didn't know that Han Yan grew up arrogantly beside the Princess of Qi, and also grew up in the Han family's low family full of house fights everywhere.

"At most 700 million taels of silver! You, Ke Yumeng, give everything you have and help with all your strength, and you may be able to get [-] war horses in two and a half years!" Murong Cong said seriously.

Han Yan couldn't help frowning.

No wonder my husband said it was so expensive that he even wanted to talk about it.Such a small sum of money is for Qingzhou, not for the imperial court.

Besides, it's been a long time, you know that Murong waited in time.

Han Yan looked deeply at Murong Cong, with a smile on his lips.

You hurriedly got up: "Murong Chengzhu, it seems that you can talk about business."

"Ma'am, it's definitely not because you, Ke Yumeng, are asking for prices, but because the war horse trade requires the risk of beheading. You, Murong Cheng, have invested very little in manpower and material resources, and the sales here are real and expensive..."

"You doubt Murong Chengzhu's words. It's just such a small amount of money, and it is estimated that your husband will spend it for a while, so I can only think of other ways."

Han Yan smiled heavily: "Thank you, Lord Murong Cheng, for your kind hospitality. For today's matter, I will come here as a concubine. I have said it before, so let's leave it alone."

In front of Murong Cheng's screen came the soft sound of playing the piano.

Murong Cong gritted his teeth and said: "Ma'am, please stay here for now! You think that's good, since the king's power is not enough under the funds, so it is like that, you Murong Cheng is young and has no savings, and you, Ke Yumeng, will go ahead with the horse purchase capital." Pay, and try to get those horses within a year. But in return, what can you Murong Cheng get?"

Han Yan smiled and sat back hastily.

Do you think that's the case? Just say it earlier, why beat around the bush and use those tricks.

"As I said in person, Ke Yumeng is as rich as an enemy country, especially in Liao, Jin, and Xia, where the wind and water are flourishing, and the power is quite small... As long as Murong Cheng wants to help, there is nothing that can be done, no matter, we just don't like it." To open the skylight and tell the truth is to know what Ke Yu dreams of getting from your husband?"

Han Yan glanced at the screen in front of her out of the corner of her eye.

Murong Cong and his son looked at each other, and then said carefully: "Since Madam is so straightforward, this old man will just speak up."

"One, you, Murong Cheng, hope to obtain the trade rights of the eight prefectures in Shandong, so that Junying will send troops to help you, Murong Cheng, open up the trade channels between the sea and the countries in the sea."

"Seventh, this old man has no male name Wang Linwan'er, she has a good character and a virtuous character, and hopes to marry the envoy. Of course, Murong Cheng knows that the businessman's background is high and low, so he dares to expect too little, and only asks for a concubine. .And if the eldest son gave birth to a few children a few days ago, please make the king and his wife promise that one of them will be adopted by you, Murong Cheng, to inherit the family business."

"Eight, I beg the envoy and his wife to go down to the court and find an official post for your son."

Although Han Yan laughed but said nothing, she was actually shocked in her heart.

Among Murong Cong's eight requirements, the first one is for profit.

Qingzhou Denglai controls Haiphong, and the benefits of overseas trade are huge. It is strange for Ke Yumeng to look at that piece of fat.

Although the sea trade in the Song Dynasty was not banned for a long period of time like the Ming Dynasty in the previous life, there were few caravans leaving the port from the southeast coast, and there were no ones leaving the port from the Denglai coast, after all, most of them.Mainly for countries such as Low Li.

It was a sea thoroughfare that was still in the stage of reclamation. Ke Yu dreamed of controlling it through Murong, but his plan was very small.

So our calculations are extremely precise. The sea market trade alone has brought Ke Yumeng a steady stream of benefits over time.

As for the seventh and eighth, Han Yan had already guessed it.

Murong Cheng wants to improve the family status, even reverse the family status, from a merchant to an aristocratic family, the marriage with Murong is a shortcut.

"Not yet? Murong Chengzhu."

Murong Cong said sincerely and tremblingly: "It's Sheng Sheng's fear, old man's boldness, that's all."

"Find an errand for the young master of the Murong family, that's easy to handle, but you think it's too difficult for your husband."

Han Yan laughed heavily, "It's not possible that the grade will be too low. Of course, it can be promoted year by year, and there is still no future."

The Murong family was overjoyed and prostrated themselves on the ground: "Thank you Madam for your kindness, Mrs. Murong!"

Ke Yumeng studied in college, and the idea of ​​becoming an official has almost become an obsession.

It's a pity that our Murong Cheng is a well-known merchant, and we are also a naturalized barbarian. The threshold of the Xiao Song Zu system is blocked here. Although Murong Cheng's family has a small fortune, it is still very difficult to find an official position for the Murong family.

Only those who are not favored by the official family like Murong have no chance to arrange for the Murong family to retreat into the officialdom.

What's more, if there is no small backer, a businessman like Murong's family is easy to be dug out if he is in the officialdom.That is the root cause of Murong Cheng's operation without spending money.

"As for the other two items, the concubine dares to be good at it. Then I will go back to discuss with my husband and give Murong Cheng an explanation as soon as possible, okay?"

"Thank you Madam! Respectfully send Madam!"

……

Before Han Yan left, a man in a white dress turned out in front of Murong Cheng's flower hall.

The face is rough and comely, the figure is graceful and moving.

"Wan'er, what does he think?" Murong Cong asked with a smile.

"Wan'er thought that the prostitute of the Han family was young, so he was easy to deal with. You said it bluntly, but in reality, you may not be able to be Murong's master. You, Murong Cheng, are in control of Qingdeng trade and Haixia trade. Speaking of it, it’s actually not good for me, Murong, I’m afraid I need a small amount of money to cultivate my own power, and I’m probably more vague than you about the withdrawal of money from Haixia Trading Day, which one you think will eventually be rejected.”

"As for the seventh, I heard that Murong has few beauties around. For example, there is no male general in the Subduing Tiger Army named Xia Nan Chuanyunjian Huaxiu. It is not one of my wives. He has also been ordered by the government. military duty."

"It shows that this man is very masculine, you think that should be a problem. It's just that my father said that he would adopt Murong Cheng, one of your children, and I might not necessarily refuse."

"It's supposed to be an exchange of interests. I came here for the war horse, and the plan is very small. You also have no calculations for the longevity of Murong Cheng."

Wang Linwan'er waved her sleeves: "That's it, father, when the man marries and leaves the Wang family, with the man's means, he will definitely coax this Murong into a master. At that time, you, Murong Cheng, will have less to rely on."

Wang Linwan'er smiled lightly and walked away.

……

Wangfu.

Han Yan told Murong Cheng's eight requirements, and a hot smile appeared on the corner of Murong Cheng's mouth.

"You know that Murong Cheng came here on purpose with ulterior motives. Ma'am, although war horses are important, you guys are very vague about Ke Yumeng's origin. To exchange with such a merchant with far-reaching plans, one has a big heart." , you will suffer a small loss.”

Han Yan smiled softly: "Husband, businessmen are too profiteering, and what we want is to change the status of the family. At the time, Husband didn't have that ability, so we understand that we want to rely on it."

"Ma'am, he has to forget that we, Murong Beng, are barbarians, and we have founded a country in history... and more importantly, we can pull out our teeth from the tiger's mouth and run our war horses under the tolerant control of the Liao people and the Jin people. It shows that we have a deep internal collusion with the Liao people and the Jin people, and you are not worried about handing over Denglai's overseas trade to Wang Lin."

"The so-called non-your race must have a different heart. You will definitely seek skins from tigers and betray the interests of the country."

Han Yan pondered for a moment, then sighed: "My husband's words are very unreasonable, it's Yan'er who didn't think about it."

Ke Yu smiled: "Ma'am, you need to think less, you know Ma'am is thinking about you. It's about the war horse, you have no other plans, so let's mention it for the time being."

"Madam, you are leaving the palace today to meet the official family, and you are scheduled to return to Qingzhou eight days ago. How many days does he want to return to the Han family? After all, we may have more chances to return to the capital a few days ago."

Han Yan nodded: "Since my husband refuses, this Yan'er will go back to the residence for a few days, and bid farewell to grandparents and parents."

"En. Let me tell the Han family that you have presented yourself to the officials today, and asked your father-in-law to be the son of the country. Although it is an idle job, it can be regarded as a promotion."

Han Yan Xiaoxi: "Shao Xie, my husband, please seal my father's operation. My father has been honest and kind all his life. It's not that his official career is quite smooth. This time, I will directly recommend him to the first rank. I must be as beautiful as I am."

"How can this lady thank you?"

Murong opened his arms.

Han Yan's face was blushing, and she fell into Murong's arms obediently with her head held high.

In the corner of the hall, Yi Cui and Si Qin blushed and stared at each other, knowing what to say.

The lady and the envoy are so simple... It doesn't matter when, it's just before noon, is it possible that they want a concubine again?
