Shangguan Yunqing, who has been in the jewelry and jade business for decades, can be said to have mastered the art of observing words and colors to the point of perfection. Chai Yugui's inadvertent loss of voice immediately made him feel ecstatic, as if he saw a huge scene in front of him.

Heaps of white money, but he learned his lesson this time. He no longer plays tricks and tells lies that even he doesn't believe. Instead, he prepares to tell the twists and turns of the origin of this piece of colored glass.

Since he almost always lived by chatting, Shangguan Yunqing instantly made up a thrilling lie in his mind about paying a huge price to get this piece of glass! However, at the moment he cleared his throat and was about to start speaking,

, suddenly there were two rapid "dong dong" knocks on the door. Shangguan Yunqing was stunned when he heard the sound, and then muttered: "These two slaves, I just told them that if anyone comes looking for me, just say I'm not here."

, don’t all of them have ears?”

"It's better to open the door and ask first! Maybe they really have something urgent and need to report to Mr. Shangguan." Chai Yugui quietly handed him over the steps.

"That's right." Shangguan Yunqing nodded thoughtfully, then pulled open the door latch, and asked with a straight face to the anxious servant standing in front of the door, "What's the matter?"

The servant did not rush to answer, but first stretched his head over Shangguan Yunqing's shoulder and took a careful look at Chai Yugui who was looking at the treasure in the iron box as if nothing had happened. Shangguan Yunqing suddenly became furious and cursed: "

Damn it, I'm asking you a question! Are you deaf?"

"No, no, I'm looking for the old man," the servant stammered: "There is a man outside, looking for this man in the house!"

"Oh!" Shangguan Yunqing turned to Chai Yugui and said with a smile, "Shopkeeper Chai, I've found you here even though I've been looking for you. It seems like there's something really urgent!"

Chai Yugui nodded: "Well, Mr. Shangguan, let me go out and have a look. If there is something urgent, we can talk another day. What do you think?"

"This...! Okay." Shangguan Yunqing felt a little pained in his heart. This was the biggest business he had encountered since opening the store, and the variables in the transaction suddenly became much greater.

When walking out, looking at Shangguan Yunqing's embarrassed expression as he saw off guests, Chai Yugui comforted him and said, "Mr. Shangguan, I'll go back and take a look. If there's nothing major, come back right away and we can continue talking.

Shangguan Yunqing nodded repeatedly and said: "Okay, okay. If shopkeeper Chai encounters any difficulties when he returns, please tell me. Zhuang Tongzhi from the Xinjing government office is a close friend of me. I believe he can help you."

busy!"

"Yeah!" Chai Yugui agreed, cupping his fists and saying, "I appreciate Mr. Shangguan's kindness. I don't know if I will ever ask Mr. Shangguan for help in the future."

"Haha, as long as your boss Chai opens his mouth, I will do my best."

While they were joking, the two of them had already stepped out of the jewelry store. At this time, Chai Bo jumped off the carriage parked in front of the jewelry store and came over anxiously. Chai Yugui remained calm, glared at him slightly, and turned to face

Shangguan Yunqing beside him introduced: "Mr. Shangguan, this is Quanzi." Then he shouted to Chai Bo softly: "Why don't you come over here and see Uncle Shangguan!"

Upon hearing the sound, Chai Bo took two steps forward, bowed to Shangguan Yunqing and saluted, "My nephew has met Uncle Shangguan!"

Shangguan Yunqing stood on the steps in front of the door, quickly raised his hands upward, and said politely: "My dear nephew, please forgive me!" Then he stroked his beard to Chai Yugui and said with emotion: "Shopkeeper Chai is so lucky, every day

I have my son by my side, unlike me. Since I left my hometown of Four Seasons City in Dali and came to the new capital of Zheng thousands of miles away to open a store and do business, it often takes three or four years before I can see my children at home!"

At this time, Chai Yugui had already lost his mood for greetings, and exchanged a scrawled haha ​​with Shangguan Yunqing. Then he and Chai Bo turned around and got into the carriage. As soon as he lowered the curtain, the coachman shook the reins, and then gave a light shout, and the carriage began to move forward.

.

In the carriage, Chai Yugui glanced at Chai Bo and said in a deep voice: "Is the matter done?"

Chai Bo pointed at the two bundles soaked with blood at the back of the carriage and said: "Please rest assured, Commander, the assigned tasks have been completed. Originally, I wanted to clean up your residence so as not to leave you behind."

What clues were there? I didn’t expect the officials from the Xinjing government office to arrive so quickly. As soon as Xianguan and Lu Zhi prepared their cars, they came!"

Chai Yugui nodded thoughtfully and said, "Fortunately, since I was ordered to go undercover in Zheng State, I have cleared away all items related to Qi State!"

Chai Bo cupped his fists and complimented: "Your commander is still very smart, and I admire you greatly!"

Chai Yugui waved his hand and sighed: "Don't be ridiculous. The commander-in-chief has long assigned the task of infiltrating Zheng Guo's officialdom. Now, not only has it not been completed, but it has caused such a big trouble. I'm afraid the commander-in-chief won't be able to spare him if I go back."

us!"

"Why?" Chai Bo heard this and said dissatisfied: "It's not the commander's mission. We smuggled 4.5 million taels of silver from the bank's bank to Qi State as military expenses for attacking Zheng State. How could we be exposed so early?

The commander can't blame us for this? Why should we be punished?"

Chai Yugui glanced at Chai Bo and said with a wry smile: "It's not like you don't know the commander's temper. In front of him, merit and demerit should not be confused!"

Chai Bo was immediately discouraged when he heard this, and he couldn't help but murmured: "Hey, it's the old rule again! I'll beat you fifty times and then give you five hundred taels of silver to nurse your wounds. What's this thing?"

It’s better to balance the merits and demerits, so as not to make people suffer!”

Chai Yugui shook his head: "Don't even think about it, just wash your butt and get ready for a slap in the face! Unless..."

"Lord Commander, what is the exception?" Upon hearing that there was a way to avoid being slapped, Chai Bo immediately became energetic and asked eagerly.

Chai Yugui took out a stack of silver notes from his arms, shook them in his hand, and said: "Look, these are the large-value bank notes I brought out from the bank. It is estimated that before tomorrow, all the bank merchants in Xinjing City will

They will receive a notice from the government to stop accepting any banknotes from Risheng Money Bank. Furthermore, they will fly a letter of 800 miles to the main office of Jin State and ask them to notify Risheng Money Bank's branch offices in various places and suspend it.

Accept the banknotes with the Zheng Guo semicolon mark, so that the two million taels of banknotes in my hand will be basically the same as waste paper!"

"Two million taels! Oh my god!" Upon hearing that Chai Yugui actually brought two million taels of silver notes from the bank, Chai Bo's eyes turned green and he couldn't help but exhale, and then he said hurriedly

: "Lord Commander, we might as well go find some banks to exchange some of the cash before the Zheng government has reacted."

Chai Yugui waved his hand: "No, the minimum denomination of these silver notes I took is ten thousand taels. They were specially printed by the main bank to facilitate the jewelry and jade trade in the Zheng Guo branch. Generally, small banks cannot exchange them.

, even if a big bank can exchange it, just imagine if it exchanges 10,000 taels of cash at a time, isn't that bank very cautious? It will even send a special person to Risheng Money Bank to verify the authenticity of the banknote. Besides, even if it only exchanges

Ten thousand taels of cash is not a small amount. If we put it on a carriage, can we still run?"

"What should we do?" Chai Bo scratched his head and scratched his head, extremely anxious. These two million taels of silver notes were really greedy. If he just watched these huge bank notes turn into pieces of waste paper, it would really be terrible.

I will regret it for the rest of my life.

Chai Yugui forced a smile and said: "The only way now is to take the risk of returning to the Changxingyuan Jewelry and Jade Shop in Yunqing, Shangguan. There are two treasures in his shop. I have already talked with him at great lengths. Now I can't do it again."

Just talk to him a little bit when you get back, and you can spend all the two million taels of silver notes on him!"

"This...!" Chai Bo was stunned when he heard this, and then he handed over his hands and said, "I obey the commander."

Chai Yugui was silent for a moment, and comforted himself: "I think that even if the little judge found the two naked, headless corpses, he would not be able to find out the identities of the two people for a while. It would be better to go back and have a good game, and tell Shangguan Yun

Now that I have obtained those two treasures from Qing Dynasty, I will be able to give an explanation to Master He."

When Chai Bo heard this, he felt like he was right. He immediately patted the car fender with his hand and shouted: "Lao Lu, stop the car, stop the car quickly!"

Lu Zhi was concentrating on driving when he was startled by the sudden shouting and slapping in the carriage behind him. He thought something big had happened in the carriage, so he quickly reined in the horse, stopped the carriage forcibly with "uh, uh", and turned around nervously.

Ask: "Captain Ding, what happened?"

Chai Bo said hurriedly through the carriage board: "Turn around and go back quickly!"

"What?" Lu Zhi thought he heard wrongly, so he jumped down from the car seat in a hurry, walked to the car door, raised the curtain, put his head into the car, and said in surprise: "Ding Duli, what did you just say?

"

"Go back, go back." Chai Bo said angrily: "I said turn around and go back. Didn't you wear your ears today?"

Lu Zhi was stunned. It turned out that he heard it right and he really wanted to go back! But this time, wasn't it like a rat rushing to be an escort for a cat?

At this time, Chai Yugui added in a deep voice: "Lao Lu, you are not going back to the bank, but back to the Changxingyuan Jewelry and Jade Shop just now."

Lu Zhi thought: "Your Majesty, you have already seen the city gate ahead. I am afraid that if the Zheng government orders the city gate to be closed later, it will be in trouble!"

Chai Yugui closed his eyes and shook his head, confidently saying: "No, they won't react that quickly!"

After sending Chai Yugui away, Shangguan Yunqing began to sit in a chair in a daze, racking his brains to find a suitable reason to go to Risheng Money Manor to meet Chai Yugui again and try to finalize the deal. Of course, if

It would be even better if we could persuade Chai Yugui to pay a deposit in advance.

Shangguan Yunqing was so engrossed in his thoughts that even when the maid brought him his favorite breakfast, porridge made from millet, he was not in the mood to eat it. He picked up the porridge bowl and took a few sips before pushing it aside.

, he was immersed in the big deal that Chai Yugui brought to his door this morning! If this big deal can really be completed, the commission from Princess Zhaoqing alone will be enough for him to return to his hometown of Dali Country, the Four Seasons City, to live a long life.

!

Just when Shangguan Yunqing was thinking about it, the shopkeeper Zeng San came in and poured a basin of cold water on his pocket. Zeng San walked in hurriedly, bowed to him and said: "My boss, Shopkeeper Chai's Risheng Qianzhuang has been closed down by the government."

Got it!"

"What?" Shangguan Yunqing stood up from his chair and said in surprise: "How do you know?"

Zeng San said: "The younger one just heard two passers-by talking about this matter at the door, so he went up to find out what was going on. He heard two passers-by say that the seizure of Risheng Qianzhuang this time was caused by the new government in Xinjing Prefecture.

Mr. Tongjian is here, and he personally brought people here to seal it!"

Shangguan Yunqing left his chair, paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his hands, then shook his head and said: "This can't be true news. Behind the Risheng Money Manor, let alone a small passerby, I'm afraid today

You can’t even offend the emperor of Zheng!”

Zeng Sanfa smiled and said: "My boss, as the saying goes, hearing is believing, seeing is believing. We and Risheng Qianzhuang are two miles away from the end of the street. Why don't you go and see for yourself?"

When Shangguan Yunqing heard this, he couldn't help but feel something in his heart. It was a good idea. He could just take this opportunity to see if Risheng Qianzhuang was really sealed up as passers-by said. Secondly, he could use this as an excuse to see Chai Yugui again.

Try to finalize this deal.

Without further delay, Shangguan Yunqing immediately called the maid and took out the brocade clothes and clothes that he only wore when he returned home to pay homage to Princess Duan Jiaojiao of Zhaoqing. With the help of the maid, he dressed up all over his body, and his whole body suddenly looked beautiful.

She is energetic and full of energy.

Amidst the compliments of the maid, I was about to go out when I suddenly saw Zeng San, the shop assistant, running in in a hurry again. He even forgot to do the courtesy and stammered: "Dong, Dongjia, Mr. Chai, Mr. Chai, come on, come on.
Chapter completed!
