Hand over the jade seal first [Infrastructure]

For a moment, Xiao Zirong was shamefully moved, and planned to accept the price.

But after thinking about it, the Northern Wei Dynasty was not alone in Qi, and people could always find out the price.

Originally, they sold it to Yuan Jia, which was very expensive, so it could be said that it was because of the risk of smuggling, but there must be a bottom line for the price, so it can't be multiplied dozens of times at once, right?

Xiao Zirong drank his saliva, and said almost with a bit of heartache: "What are you thinking? Who said it was thirty thousand? Three thousand!"

Yuan Jia's eyes widened: "Only...only...only three thousand?"

Xiao Zirong was even more heartbroken after hearing this, and regretted why he didn't report more, but he still jokingly said: "What? His Royal Highness Guangyang thinks it's cheap? Then it's okay to add a little more money."

Yuan Jia said decisively: "No, no, three thousand is three thousand, I want five hundred, no, no, one thousand."

Xiao Zirong: ...

So, the Northern Wei Dynasty was really rich, right?

It’s not surprising that Xiao Zirong thought about it carefully. The economic focus of the Central Plains shifted to the south or something happened in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, or in Xiao Zirong’s impression, it was at that time. Now of course, the rich are still in the north. .

Especially in those days when the Five Husbands were in chaos, the Han people traveled southward in their clothes, and they were somewhat in a hurry, and many things were cheaper for the Hu people.

Xiao Zirong regretted the low asking price and comforted himself that it was sustainable development. What if the asking price was too high and it was a one-shot deal?

But... Yuan Jia wanted a thousand lamps in one breath, which made Xiao Zirong a little worried about whether his small workshop could hold it.

Really can't... Go to his brother, if you are in doubt, go to the regent, and if the regent is not good enough, go to his uncle. There are not many opportunities to make money from the people of the Northern Wei Dynasty, so you must seize it!

He thought of this and said: "To be honest, the quantity is a bit large, and he needs to expand the workshop, so it will take a while. If you don't want to wait, you can cancel the order first..."

Before he finished talking about Yuan Jia, he immediately said: "No, no, I won't withdraw, you should line up for me first!"

Well, anyway, there is a deposit required, and he would be happy if the other party insisted on not withdrawing it.

Xiao Zirong reminded again: "You need to pay a [-]% deposit first, so much money is on me..."

Yuan Jia said again: "I believe in you, it's all right!"

Xiao Zirong was a little dumbfounded for a moment, feeling that he didn't come here for sales, but someone begged him to buy it.

Pretty much the same actually.

Yuan Jia loved this glazed lamp so much that he couldn't help reaching out to touch it even though the lampshade was a little hot from the fire.

Touching it, he said, "Otherwise, you can make me a dozen or so lamps first, and let me replace all the lamps at home."

Well, his bedroom, his study, the small flower hall and the princess are all needed.

Xiao Zirong said very grandly: "Why do you have to wait for this? I brought fifteen lamps this time just for you."

Yuan Jia was really overjoyed after hearing this: "Good brother! If you need help in the future, just tell me!"

Xiao Zirong's gift was really generous. One lamp was three thousand guan, and fifteen lamps was [-] guan. He could give it away as soon as he said it. Yuan Jia reckoned that he himself would not be able to do such a big deal.

Yuan Jia was almost stunned by his unexpected atmosphere.

Good-looking and generous, who doesn't like such a friend?

Even though he knew that Xiao Wen must have something to do with a high-ranking official in Qi, he still couldn't help but want to make friends with him, and he didn't even want to complete the task assigned to him by the emperor.

Yuan Ke wants him to find out who is behind Xiao Wen, and then judge Xiao Wen's value.

However, whether it is asked in person or investigated in private, it hurts too much. Especially in private investigation, if it is sure that Xiao Wen will not know for the rest of his life, it would be fine, but the problem is that he does not have such confidence.

Yuan Jia was thinking about whether to go back and tell Yuan Ke that Xiao Wen's frontier defense was leak-free, so he couldn't find it.

Anyway, the big deal is to be scolded, it's not a big crime, and it won't be deprived of the throne.

And just when Yuan Jia was ready to be punished, he unexpectedly turned around - Xiao Wen drank too much, and began to complain to him that his immediate boss was difficult to serve.

Yuan Jia was very surprised. If it was someone else, he would doubt whether the other party told him on purpose, mainly because it was a coincidence.

However, when Xiao Wen put his hand on his shoulder to complain, Yuan Jia looked at the beautiful face that was close at hand, and felt very hopeless, Xiao Wen didn't know the mission Yuan Ke gave him, so how could he think of such a thing? A way to trick him?

People are always like this, and they will relax a lot after finding a reason to explain themselves.

So he let himself stare at that face intently, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that the other person was more beautiful, even at such a close distance, he didn't find many flaws on his face.

Especially after drinking, the beauty's face turned a thin layer of red, and her eyes were moistened a lot, which made people couldn't help but look twice more.

In fact, Xiao Zirong did it on purpose, and he didn't even need to guess to know that Yuan Jia and Yuan Ke would definitely guess where he came from.

So the other party will definitely make every effort to investigate. The only thing I am lucky about now is that I have not seen many people with this face. If Yuan Ke's manpower in Qi Guo did not reach the level of Sangong Jiuqing, it would be impossible to recognize him. of.

It’s just that it’s a bit dangerous no matter what, so Xiao Zirong decided to release some news in advance to let them have a preconceived impression and cause an information deviation. place.

But Xiao Zirong doesn't have any immediate boss, his immediate boss is the emperor, it's fine if he wasn't familiar with him before, but later on Xiao Xuan almost treats him as his own son, oh, he may not be so gentle towards his own son .

So most of Xiao Zirong's complaints came from other people, such as Ling Fu.

Of course Ling Fu didn't complain much to Xiao Zirong, but every time Xiao Xuexing gave them extra training, he would go to Xiao Zirong to intercede.

Ling Fu has long been keenly aware that it is probably useless to ask Xiao Xuexing for something, but if the king of Xuancheng is asked to come forward, he will basically be able to succeed. do it right

Since he is asking for love, he must pretend to be pitiful. The king of Xuancheng has a soft heart, and he really can't bear the pitiful appearance of a big tough guy like Ling Fu in front of him, so he basically agrees.

Now Xiao Zirong can almost make it his own by processing and changing those words.

Of course, his tone had to be changed, he couldn't act like a baby to Yuan Jia.

It's just that Ling Fu's tone was very soft when facing him, and when he spoke, in order to highlight the fact that he was already drunk, his tone of speech was also very vague.

The things he said were actually not too much, mainly to point out the identity of the person behind him-high position, young, capable of fighting.

The permutations and combinations of these words are hardly the second choice.

If he was facing other people, Yuan Jia would definitely feel that the other party was making a fuss out of a molehill.

But when it came to Xiao Zirong, Yuan Jia felt distressed. When he heard that he needed to travel to the north and south to eat and sleep in the open, he felt that the regent was puzzled. Such a beauty should be gentle and cared for. How could he do these things? Woolen cloth?

So he said in a strange way: "It's too much, it's really not good... why don't you come and do it with me."

Xiao Zirong:! ! ! !

Did he say too much?

While pretending to be confused, he thought carefully about what he said just now, no, it was pretty good, and even some parts sounded a little unreasonable, and he should do those things as a family member.

So where exactly did Yuan Jia hit the spot and let him do such a thing as prying the corner of the wall?

Xiao Zirong was very confused, waved his hands and said, "Stop joking, you don't want to do business anymore?"

His current status is an important bridge between Yuan Jia and the Prince Regent... his property.

Seeing that he did not agree, Yuan Jia felt a little regretful, Xiao Zirong was afraid that he would say something surprising again, so he directly pretended to be overwhelmed with alcohol and said, "Brother Yuan, please forgive me for losing my composure after drinking, it's not early, so why not say goodbye. "

Although Yuan Jia was a bit reluctant, seeing him drunk and sleepy, he still agreed, but in order to get a second look, he even sent Xiao Zirong to his room.

On the road, Xiao Zirong really tried his best to show the state of "although drunk but still able to walk".

Because Yuan Jia even wanted to carry him back just now.

Scary, isn't it!

Xiao Zirong felt that he needed to go back and calm down and think carefully about what went wrong.

It's just a set of glazed lamps, so it won't make Yuan Jia condescend, right?

After Yuan Jia sent Xiao Zirong to the room, he reluctantly left.

Xiao Zirong lay on the bed and pretended to be sleeping, and began to review today's situation. After thinking for a long time, he didn't think there was any problem.

So why is Yuan Jia so enthusiastic all of a sudden?It shouldn't be because he realized that Xiao Xuexing was behind him.

If that's the case, the fact that the other party was very enthusiastic from the moment they saw him couldn't explain it.

Xiao Zirong felt a little headache, after Yuan Jia left completely, he quickly got up and changed his clothes.

Just now he pretended to drink too much, but he didn't drink too much, at most he drank a glass or two, so the smell of alcohol on his body was all because he spilled wine on his body on purpose.

He also paid too much for acting. He wore half-wet clothes all night. Thanks to the dryness in the north, he didn't feel so uncomfortable.

Xiao Zirong asked after changing clothes and taking a bath, "Chunsheng, go and see how many guards are around."

Chunsheng immediately said: "Report... Your Excellency, except for the guards at the courtyard gate, there is no one guarding it."

Xiao Zirong pondered for a while and said, "Let Ah Cui take a binoculars and find a high place to see the situation of the port."

Yuan Jia made a mistake. Xiao Zirong came to observe the terrain, but he didn't intend to touch those sensitive places. He chose to observe the port.
