I was a prince in ancient times

With the back of his hand propped under his chin, Lu Chengjiao watched Xie Anlan lying on the corridor railing and staring at the koi carp playing in the fish pond on the corridor, and smiled silently, "Maybe, he is trying to collect money."

"Who knows." Xie Anlan shrugged, and sprinkled a handful of bait into the fish pond. Watching the koi under the lotus leaves scrambling to grab food, the corners of his lips slightly curved, "Anyway, the bait is below, and the rest It depends on whether there is any fish coming to snatch it."

Lu Chengjie hummed, straightened his clothes, took off the jade pendant he had been wearing around his waist, and put on the special delicate mirror, got up and followed Lu Chuyi out to receive him.

After more than half a month, Boss Ma finally transported the gold to buy perfume from South Vietnam.

But he is not happy.

For the past half month, all he thought about day and night was the little mirror that slipped from Lu Chengjia's waist that day.

That glass was called better than Liuli by Lu Chengjie.

He really wanted to see this thing, but was afraid that it was a trap. After all, it was such a coincidence that Lu Chengjiao's mirror fell, so he had to think carefully.

But after more than half a month, there is no news about glass in the market, and the Chen Palace is also quiet, as if there is no such thing in this world.

If it wasn't for what he saw and heard with his own eyes that day, it would have been like a bizarre dream.

Boss Ma was leaning on the money cart, facing the scorching sun, with a gloomy expression.

"Boss Ma, you're safe and well." Lu Chengjie came out from the side door and smiled at him.

Businessmen from other countries would not be invited to the Prince Chen's mansion by uprightness. Lu Chengjiao was able to greet him in person at the side door, which could be regarded as giving him face.

"Boss Lu." Seeing Lu Chengjiao, Boss Ma bowed his hands to him as a return gift, but his eyes slid unconsciously to his waist.

Sure enough, there was still that exquisite little mirror hanging there, which was very eye-catching, clearly showing him that what he had been thinking about for the past half month was not a dream, but the real existence of this thing.

"On the first day of the lunar new year, go and order the goods to Boss Ma." Lu Chengke seemed to be unaware of Boss Ma's probing gaze, his gaze fell on the box of the carriage, and he gave instructions to Lu Chuyi who was beside him.

The goods have already been prepared, and when Lu Chuyi heard Lu Chengjia's order, he cast a look at the servants behind him, and soon some servants moved boxes of exquisitely packaged glass perfumes from the porter's room. out.

"Boss Ma, order some goods." Lu Chengke stepped forward, walked to the wooden box, nodded his chin, and looked at Boss Ma with a smile.

Boss Ma quietly moved his eyes away from Lu Chengjia's waist, and turned to look at the boxes of perfume that he had opened for him to check.

Each bottle of perfume is wrapped in a box made of silk, and a lot of soft things are padded inside to prevent shattering, which shows that it has been carefully thought out.

Boss Ma looked at them one by one, counted the quantity again, and walked to the side of the carriage when there was no problem, patted the box on the carriage, "All the gold is here, Boss Lu, please order."

"En." Lu Chengjiao nodded, and Lu Chuyi stepped forward to pick up the lid of the wooden box, flipping through each one, and after checking that the number was correct, he nodded affirmatively at Lu Chengjiao.

"Move in." Lu Chengjie ordered the servants lightly, and several servants joined hands to move all the gold and silver in the car into the palace.

By the way, he also helped Boss Ma move the perfume box onto his carriage.

"Boss Ma, I look forward to working together again next time." Lu Chengjie took the money, looked at the sun in the sky, greeted him with a smile, and then turned and went into the mansion without looking back.

"Boss Lu, wait." Boss Ma watched the small mirror hanging from Lu Chengjia's waist disappear, endured and endured, and finally stopped Lu Chengjia when he was about to enter the mansion.

Lu Chengjie turned around, "Is Boss Ma still busy?"

Boss Ma gritted his teeth hard, as if he was not reconciled, but also as if he had not resisted the temptation, he squirmed his lips and asked, "I wonder if the glass that Boss Lu mentioned last time can be negotiated."

Lu Chengjiao leaned against the side door of the palace, concentrating slightly, and after a pause, he said softly to Boss Ma, "My Royal Highness got the glass by chance, and it is even rarer than glass."

After finishing speaking, Lu Chengjie couldn't help smiling, "I advise Boss Ma to stop thinking about it. After all, glass is different from colored glaze, and the amount involved here is not as simple as a million taels."

Boss Ma's old face was tanned by the hot sun, and he suddenly realized the feelings of the other bosses half a month ago.

It was really a slap in the face for this boss Lu to say that he had no money.

Who doesn't know that their Nanyue country is the richest country, as a big businessman of the South Vietnam country, how could it be possible that they can't even spend more than one million taels of money.

Boss Ma smiled embarrassingly, "Boss Lu has underestimated the old man too much. This business has not been discussed yet, how does Boss Lu know that the old man can't afford the price."

Boss Ma straightened his back after finishing speaking. Although the Chenwang Mansion is now a big business and is no longer as down and out as before, their Nanyue Ma family is not a small family. If you really compare it, maybe their Chenwang Mansion is not as good as their Nanyue. A small businessman.

After hearing what he said, Lu Chengjie frowned, paused for a moment, and sighed quietly, "Boss Ma, what do you want to talk about."

Seeing that Lu Chengjiao compromised, Boss Ma was overjoyed, pointed to the small mirror on Lu Chengjiao's waist, and said, "Boss Lu, can you use this thing to have a good eye with the old man?"

Lu Chengjie looked down at the small mirror hanging from his waist, pursed his lips, and refused a little, but when he touched Boss Ma's longing eyes, he reluctantly untied it and handed it to Lu Chuyi.

Lu Chuyi took it with both hands and brought it to Boss Ma for his review.

Boss Ma stretched out his trembling hand, and carefully took the exquisite little mirror from Lu Chuyi's hand. He looked at it from side to side for a moment, and slowly opened it with an excited heart.

A smooth mirror without any impurities appeared in front of his eyes, through this bright mirror he could clearly see his current face, which was lighter, thinner and brighter than the slightly yellowed copper mirror.

He didn't pay attention to himself in the mirror, but touched along the edge of the mirror, and he didn't find an uneven place, or even a trace of processing, as if it had grown like this naturally.

"Ingenious workmanship." After Boss Ma looked at it, he couldn't help but praise, "It is indeed better than Liuli."

No matter how good the glass is, it cannot be so thin, transparent and free of impurities, let alone polished into a mirror.

Lu Chengjie raised his eyebrows of course, "If it's not as good as Liuli, how can I boast so much."

"Boss Lu is right." Boss Ma was completely overwhelmed by the glass at this time, and he took it into his hand to play with the small mirror carefully for a while, and finally returned it to Lu Chuyi reluctantly.

Lu Chu returned to Lu Chengjiao with one hand, and Lu Chengjiao shook his head lightly, but he didn't want to put it back on his waist again.

Boss Ma thought for a while, "I don't know how Boss Lu will charge for this glass."

"It depends on Boss Ma's financial resources." Lu Chengke smiled lightly, standing under the gate of the mansion under the parasol held by his servants, calmly.

Boss Ma frowned slightly, and then smiled calmly, "Boss Lu was joking, although this glass is indeed rare, if it is as small and exquisite as the glass mirror in Boss Lu's hand, how expensive it can be. "

The more Boss Ma talked, the more open-minded he became, and he decided that Lu Chengke wanted to scare him off with sky-high prices.

Lu Chengjie raised his eyebrows and looked at Boss Ma, who was a little bit proud. His demeanor was not inferior, and he curled his lips, "I never said that this glass is only as big as a small mirror. I made this small mirror." , it’s just for my convenience.”

When Lu Chengjie said this, he thought of Xie Anlan, and unconsciously imitated Xie Anlan's expression and tone when he said this.

The proud Boss Ma choked on Lu Chengjiao's words, his smile froze on his face.

"Could it be that this glass can be made into cups and cups like colored glaze?" Boss Ma was beating his heart, a little unbelievable.

It's just that a simple small mirror is so delicate, but how beautiful it would be if it were made into a cup.

Lu Chengjie did not disappoint him, nodded and said affirmatively, "Exactly."

Boss Ma's bony hands trembled, his breathing was a little short, he took two steps forward passionately, and asked, "Can I see it first?"

"Naturally." Lu Chengjiao said flatly, "If Boss Ma can afford the price."

"If it's as delicate as the mirror in Boss Lu's hand, it doesn't matter if the old man goes bankrupt." When Boss Ma said this, he pressed the emerald ring on his thumb tightly, and his back straightened.

It is no longer a day or two for the Nanyue Kingdom to admire colored glaze. If the cups made of this glass are more exquisite than colored glaze, they will definitely attract the attention of the royal family when they are shipped back to South Vietnam. With this glass, it is almost certain that the Ma family will become an imperial merchant. Nail thing.

Lu Chengjie and Boss Ma looked at each other for a while, but seeing the panic in his eyes, he turned to Lu Chu and said, "On the first day of the junior high school, go and bring that box of glass."

Lu Chuyi turned around and returned to the mansion, and quickly went to the warehouse to grab a small box of glass at random. When he was about to walk to the door, the hand holding the small box became tense and cautious unconsciously.

The box was square and square, and it looked small. Lu Chengjie opened the lid of the box in front of Boss Ma, and saw a whole set of glass cups inside, all of which were white and transparent. people.

Magical and wonderful.

Looking at the cups in the box, Boss Ma felt like a countryman who had never seen the market, his eyes were wide open, and he couldn't wait to take the box back to Nanyue.

Lu Chengjie asked him with a smile, "How is it?"

"This..." Boss Ma hesitated for a while, his heart was full of enthusiasm, but he still restrained himself as much as possible, and said to Lu Chengjiao dumbly, "Please ask Boss Lu to make a price."

Boss Ma has already prepared in his heart that he must get this set of glass no matter how much the price is.

Lu Chengjie stretched out his slender fingers from his cuffs, gestured twice, and said, "I don't know if the boss can accept this price."

Boss Ma stared at Lu Chengjie's beautiful fingers, remained silent for a while, frowned deeply, and his eyes were slightly displeased, "Boss Lu's price is too high, I'm not so stupid as to let people ask for it." the point."

"Boss Ma, I didn't say I would sell it." Lu Chengke didn't care about his anger, and smiled slightly, "Boss Ma first asked Lu if he could do this business."

"Of course it can be done." Lu Chengjia withdrew his hand, with a smile on his lips, "After all, Lu also considers himself a money lover, so as long as Boss Ma can afford it, there's nothing wrong with giving up his love."

Every time Lu Chengke said something, Boss Ma's face turned ugly. He was indeed begging to buy it, but he didn't expect that Lu Chengke's asking price was so ruthless, tens of millions of taels of silver.

This is simply digging out their lifeblood again.

Boss Ma's face darkened, "Boss Lu, this old man came to discuss business with you sincerely, please also show some sincerity to Boss Lu."

Lu Chengjiao looked at him, and his tone became cold, "Since Boss Ma thinks that Lu is not sincere, then there is no need to talk about this business again, just take the things back first."

Lu Chuyi was about to leave with the box in his arms, but Boss Ma panicked. He hurriedly held Lu Chuyi down, and looked at Lu Chengjiao flatteringly, "No, Boss Lu has something to discuss."

Lu Chengjie looked indifferently, "I don't think there is anything to talk about between Boss Ma and me."

"Boss Lu, your price is really too high, how about a discount?" Boss Ma wanted to pull Lu Chengjiao, who was about to turn around and enter the house, but was stopped by a person who suddenly appeared from the door. The corners of the clothes were not touched.

Xie Anlan stopped Boss Ma, brought the teacup in front of Lu Chengjiao, and asked warmly, "Why did it take so long?"

Lu Chengjie took the teacup, picked the lid and moistened his lips, shook his head and said nothing.

"You are?" Boss Ma didn't know Xie Anlan, seeing how close he and Lu Chengjia were, he was puzzled.

Xie Anlan took the teacup from Lu Chengjie's hand, and took a sip of the tea where his lips touched, without explaining.

Xie Anlan didn't wear a python suit, and although he looked like jade and gold, Boss Ma remembered that his servant had chattered with him half a month ago that Lu Chengjia had raised a face leader, so he didn't dare to jump to conclusions.

"Are you done?" Xie Anlan asked after drinking the tea, handing the cup to a servant beside her.

"Right now." After Lu Chengjia finished speaking, he smiled apologetically at Boss Ma.

Seeing that Lu Chengjie was really going to enter the mansion this time, Boss Ma panicked and blurted out, "Boss Lu, let's discuss it again."

Lu Chengji paused, "Since Boss Ma didn't pay the price, there is nothing to discuss between us."

"Boss Lu is stuck with this price, and won't give in at all?" Boss Ma was so hot that day that he was very anxious.

Lu Chengjie hummed, but stopped talking.

"Boss Lu, as long as you make one step, as long as you make one step, I will buy this glass box." Boss Ma stomped his feet fiercely and looked at Lu Chengjiao expectantly.

Lu Chengjiao remained unmoved, and said two words indifferently, "No."

Boss Ma's body was on the verge of falling. Since Lu Chengjiao had killed him, there was no business to be discussed. He bowed his back in frustration and wanted to leave tremblingly.

Xie Anlan watched the play for a long time, and said with a smile, "If you can't make concessions on the price, could it be that you can't make concessions in other places?"

Boss Ma paused as he was about to leave, then shrank back.

Lu Chengjie raised his eyes and looked at Xie Anlan, "How can you make concessions in other places?"

Xie Anlan smiled lightly, "There's not a half-person-high glass mirror in the warehouse, why don't you take it out to make a compliment with Boss Ma."

"That's..." Lu Chengjiao stared, caught Xie Anlan's eyes and swallowed the rest of his words.

Boss Ma's eyes lit up when he heard the half-person-high glass mirror. It would definitely cause a sensation when such a large glass mirror was transported back to South Vietnam.

If Lu Chengjiao doesn't give in, it's okay to use this mirror to fight back.

But Boss Ma has dealt with Lu Chengke several times, and he knows that Lu Chengke is a very stubborn person. Once he decides something, he will not change it easily. Judging from the words he swallowed just now, this half-length mirror is definitely It is also of great use, so I don't have any hope in my heart.

Just as Boss Ma's heart sank more and more, Lu Chengjie said unprecedentedly, "Okay."

Boss Ma couldn't believe what he heard.

Lu Chengjie turned his head and said with a smile, "Boss Ma is quite satisfied with this concession.

Boss Ma nodded, knowing that it was not easy to get Lu Chengke to give in once, if he did not agree this time, the business would never be discussed.

Lu Chengjie nodded lightly, "As usual, only gold and silver are accepted, not cash notes."

Boss Ma's expression turned ugly, "Boss Lu, I won't be able to transport such a large amount of gold and silver to Yongchao for a while."

This time he has already brought a million taels of gold out of the country, and if he brings a larger amount of gold, he will definitely attract the attention of the royal family.

"That's your business, Boss Ma." Lu Chengjie said indifferently.

Boss Ma looked at the glass in the box, and felt ruthless, "If Boss Lu insists on gold and silver, then the old man can only pay Boss Lu in batches. Boss Lu should think about it, which means you will need a long time to pay." It will take a while to get cash."

Lu Chengjie nodded slightly, expressing his clarity.

After the discussion, Lu Chuyi made another trip, took the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and the two drew up a contract and signed it.

The two servants who came with Boss Ma saw with their own eyes that their master had negotiated with Lu Chengke for a long time but failed to settle the business, but as soon as Lu Chengke came forward and said a few words, the matter was settled. Shocked.

Whispering behind the carriage, "Boss Lu's face is too bold. Not only can he enter and leave the Prince Chen's mansion at will, but he can also influence Boss Lu's decision-making at will, but the servants next to him are all arrogant. It's like getting used to it."

Another servant whispered, "Perhaps that King Chen can't do it, you forgot about our Nanyue one, no, that's not the case. In the end, he openly supported the face-raiser and helped find someone."

"That's right, the royal family has been in chaos since ancient times. It looks bright and beautiful on the outside, but who knows what it looks like inside."

The servants hid in the back of the carriage and discussed in a low voice, thinking that no one heard them, but Xie Anlan and Lu Chengjie were on the other side of the carriage, their faces darkened.

After signing the contract, Boss Ma wanted to observe the glass again. Xie Anlan and Lu Chengjiao had nothing to do. They happened to see that the Nanyue carriage was strange and different from their Yongchao carriage, so they became curious and wanted to come and have a look. Cheng Xiang heard such words.

"Your Highness..."

Lu Chengjie wanted to explain aloud, but Xie Anlan raised his hand to stop him, and listened quietly to the servants to see what else they could do for him.

In the end, until Boss Ma reluctantly put down the glass and left with the perfume, Xie Anlan didn't ask Lu Chengjiao to explain.

Lu Chengjie followed Xie Anlan into the mansion nervously.

Xie Anlan looked at Lu Chengjia who was cautiously behind her, and curled her lips amusedly, "Isn't it just two edited sentences, I'm not so careful yet."

Lu Chengjiao raised his eyes sideways, thinking that those were two choreographed words, and he almost stomped Xie Anlan's majesty on the ground.

Can His Highness bear it?

"I don't care if I cheated them of such a large amount of money." Xie Anlan picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and suppressed the depression in his chest.

Then he embraced Lu Cheng, who was silent at the side, pressed his chest against his back, and blew hot air into his cochlea, "Anyway, if I can do it or not, you are the only one who knows best in this world, don't you?"

Lu Chengjie felt the crisp and numbing sensation of the cochlea, the tips of his ears turned red, and he pursed his lips lightly, he knew it would end up like this.

But he was willing to coax Xie Anlan in this way, because this was the closest way between the two of him, and the way that could help each other relieve the most.

Lu Chengjie tilted his head slightly, kissed Xie Anlan's chin back, and gently rubbed against him like a kitten, helping Xie Anlan calm down his inner irritability.

"When Boss Ma's gold and silver are all in place, we can start making preparations for the bank." Xie Anlan undid the belt with his backhand, and said a pun in Lu Chengke's ear, "Lu Chengke, you are quite capable. "

"Whether I can do it or not, Your Highness has seen and felt it." Lu Chengjiao panted slightly, his face was flushed, and he was holding on to the corner of the table. It seemed that a cloud of fog had gathered in front of his eyes, making him sink in a pool of water in the fog.

After a soft snort, Xie Anlan exclaimed, "Extremely capable, a few pieces of glass were exchanged for tens of millions of taels of gold, you said they knew that it was worthless after turning around, would they want to eat you and me alive .”

Lu Chengjie pressed the corner of the table with slightly red fingertips, slid his Adam's apple, swallowed all his breath, and said in a broken voice, "This...it will be...it depends...when Your Highness...stopped. "

"Stop it when you've got enough." Xie Anlan smiled lightly, panting a bit, "Anyway, Nanyue is not short of money, so I don't mind getting a little more."

"Hmm..." Lu Chengji trembled at the end, "When Boss Ma... tastes the sweetness...he will come to me again."

"No hurry." Xie Anlan hugged him and took a step closer, "The matter of the bank is not so fast, there are too few talents, and the issue of coins is still unresolved."

Xie Anlan wants to make banknotes, but banknotes require a lot of cotton, and now cotton is in short supply across the country, at least until next year or two before it can be promoted nationwide.

Lu Chengjie was trembling with Xie Anlan's arms around him, his beautiful eyes were not only foggy, but also red, so beautiful that one couldn't help but be addicted to them.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and thought for a while with the remaining rationality, "Isn't the mulberry paper used for bank notes okay?"

"No." Xie Anlan pulled the man over and kissed his lips, "I want to make coins that are simpler and clearer than banknotes, and mulberry paper is a bit disliked."

"Then what's the use?" Lu Chengjia asked him with reddened eyes.

"You'll know when the time comes." Xie Anlan didn't know how to explain to him, so she simply didn't explain, and carried him to the mirror that was one person tall in the room, admiring the two people in the mirror.

"Xie Anlan!" Lu Chengjia looked at himself in the glasses, and pinched Xie Anlan's shoulder.

How could he be so bad!

Xie Anlan bit his earlobe and murmured, "This is glass worth tens of millions of taels, why don't you try it?"

Lu Chengjie pressed his thin knuckles on the glass mirror, knelt in front of the mirror, closed his eyes and dared not open them, he thought he must be crazy to agree to Xie Anlan.

Xie Anlan leaned against his back, kissed his side face, and coaxed, "Take a boat, open your eyes and see, it's beautiful."

Lu Chengjie believed his evil, and opened his eyes tremblingly.

Just one glance penetrated to the bone marrow, as if he was imprisoned in the mirror, he couldn't break free, and couldn't escape, so he could only let Xie Anlan toss about.

Through the mirror, he could see his own face clearly at the moment, and he could also see Xie Anlan behind him clearly. The eyes of the two met in the mirror, and then the mirror surface of the mirror became foggy due to the hot breath he exhaled.

The knuckles pressed on the mirror bent little by little, turning from white to red. There was no point of strength in his body, and the only thing he could rely on was Xie Anlan. Panting filled the entire bedroom.

When there was only a little reason left, Lu Chengjia heard Xie Anlan ask him, "Chengjia, do you think I can do it?"

Lu Chengjie smiled in his heart, still remembering this, his adam's apple pressed against the mirror twitched, and said slowly, "You-you-you-re-is-too-good!"
