Chapter 195: There is no such thing as a free lunch

Ning Chuchu was stunned on the spot.

She never expected that Li Chenan would ask such a shocking question at this time.

She stopped smiling, sat upright, picked up the bowl of iced herbal tea, and took another big sip, thinking that this guy might have gotten into money!

News about Guangling City will be delivered to her at any time, so she knows everything Li Chenan does in Guangling City!

This guy made a lot of money from his peach blossom stuffing!

He robbed the Shen family's granary, which cost tens of thousands of taels of silver!

But he was thinking about the twenty taels of silver... He was stingy, but... But he did recruit the disciples from Wanxi Zhai into the Lijing Division, which was considered a great achievement.

So, she turned to Li Chen'an again, handed over the silver medal, turned to Zhiyuan and said: "Take twenty taels of silver and give it to Mr. Li. My brother is very busy, I'm afraid he has forgotten this."

Zhiyuan took out her purse and took out a twenty-tael silver coin from her purse. She was about to hand it to Li Chenan, but unexpectedly, Li Chenan said again: "Girl, you are a good person!"

First, he issued a good guy card, then he grinned and said with a sly look:

"I will leave Kyoto after the Mid-Autumn Festival. Since your brother is so busy, and I can't leave behind the affairs of the Mirror Division, why don't you give me two hundred taels of silver in advance?"

"I won't have to think about how to find him for the next four years. It will be more convenient for everyone, don't you think?"

Zhiyuan's eyes suddenly widened, and she glared at Li Chenan, "How can you, a person like you, get money first and then work?"

Ning Chuchu was stunned for a moment. She didn't seem to hear that Li Chenan wanted to advance the two hundred taels of silver, but asked in surprise: "You said you were planning to leave after the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

"yes……!"

Li Chenan sat up straight and spread his hands, "Girl, you don't know, I was assassinated by someone sent by the Fish and Dragon Society as soon as I arrived in Kyoto."

"Originally, I was still the helmsman of the Ichthyosaurus Club. You can also tell your brother about this, but you have to tell him that my original intention of joining the Ichthyosaurus Club was not to step into two different boats. I just felt that Ichthyosaurs

It’s just that the reputation of this evil person will be better.”

"I heard that the Ichthyosaurus Club belongs to Prime Minister Ji, so if the Ichthyosaurus Club comes to assassinate me, I'm afraid it has Prime Minister Ji's tacit approval."

"I just don't understand how a little person like me could attract the attention of a big shot like Prime Minister Ji. I thought that coming to Kyoto would be no big deal. The main thing was Ruoshui. Since the Yulong Club didn't welcome me, I planned to come to Kyoto right away.

leave."

"After all, it's too dangerous to stay here, and it might even cause trouble for Ding Guohou Mansion."

"Leijing Division...I won't hide it from you. Reich Mirror Division is now in decline and cannot be counted on... You can also tell your brother about this. You tell him that if you want Reich Mirror Division to rise,

, to be able to suppress or even eliminate the Fish and Dragon Society, money is the key!"

Li Chenan stretched out a hand and knocked on the table. Looking at the beautiful girl in front of him, he looked at the beautiful girl in front of him very seriously and said from the bottom of his heart:

"Don't think silver is tacky!"

“You can travel around the world only if you have money. Without money, it’s really hard to move even one inch!”

"An organization as big as Lijing Division needs a large number of people! Not only the masters of martial arts, but also capable and ruthless people from various industries!"

"Except for me, I'm afraid there is no one else in the world who is a fool. This trick of painting a cake is completely useless in front of others!"

"The reason why people want to join Lijing Division is very simple. They just want to gain status as Lijing Division and then make money."

"Tell your brother, if you want the horse to run, you have to give the horse more grass!"

"There is no free lunch in the world, and no one in the world has no advantage to get up early!"

Ning Chuchu was stunned for a moment by Li Chenan's words.

Of course, these words make sense. She, Ning Chuchu, also knows that to strengthen Lijing Division, a lot of money is needed, but...

"Then tell me where this money comes from?"

This sentence made Li Chenan laugh.

"There are thousands of ways to make money. You and I met by chance, and your brother and I don't have much friendship. Girl, please have another glass of iced herbal tea, and you can go home!"

Li Chenan poured another bowl of herbal tea for Ning Chuchu and said nothing more because there was no need to say anything else.

But Ning Chuchu was not happy.

She knew that Li Chenan's wine was extremely profitable, so the only way she could think of to make money was to rob Li Chenan's wine shop!

But there was Zhong Li Ruoshui in the middle of this matter, and she really couldn't do anything about it.

She picked up the herbal tea and took another sip, but did not get up and leave. Instead, she asked Li Chenan, "Do you want to know what the price of food in Jiangnan is now?"

Li Chenan was stunned. Cai Zhengyao had already gone to Jiangnan, but he had not yet received his reply.

According to the calculation of time, the autumn grain from Jiangnan has been put into the warehouse, so the grain price war between Cai Zhengyao and the Shen family should start.

But just how much Cai Zhengyao had raised the price of food in Jiangnan, and how determined the Shen family was to eat that food at a high position, he was really worried and wanted to know.

"Did Lijingsi get the news?"

Ning Chuchu put down the bowl, sat up straight, looked at the back of Amu who was sitting on the lotus, and looked at Li Chenan's expectant expression, and suddenly the corner of her mouth curled up:

"Well, I just received the news last night."

"... Then tell me how the price of food in Jiangnan is now?"

“There is no such thing as a free lunch!”

This sentence was just said by Li Chenan, and Ning Chuchu learned it and applied it to him.

"Well, I don't want the two hundred taels of silver. How about that?"

"Not really."

"What does it take for a girl to be willing to talk?"

Ning Chuchu raised her neck like a proud white swan, with a victorious smile on her face.

"It's very simple. Tell me how Lijingsi can make a lot of money!"

"This is your brother's business, why should the girl worry about it?"

After a pause, Li Chenan added: "Actually, there is no need for the existence of the Fish and Dragon Society or the Lijing Division as far as I'm concerned!"

Ning Chuchu was shocked, "Why?"

"This is just a small means used by the emperor to balance the forces between the two sides!"

"A country should have an intelligence agency, but having an Imperial City Department is enough. Having an extra Ichthyosaurus Society and a Mirror Department will consume more of the Imperial City Department's energy, which should be used on the enemy.

."

"So, I thought you would advise your brother to let go of the Lijing Division after you go back. He is still so young and should find a good job as soon as possible."

Ning Chuchu stared at Li Chenan intently, as if she wanted to tell the truth of what he said from Li Chenan's expression.

After a few breaths, she suddenly nodded, "I will tell my brother, but you still have to use how to make a lot of money in exchange for Jiangnan's information!"

"……good!"

The two leaned over and their heads almost touched each other.

Li Chenan talked to Ning Chuchu for half an hour, and then he also learned about Jiangnan's situation.

When it was almost noon, Ning Chuchu stood up and left with a happy face.

"I'll come see you tomorrow!"

Li Chenan waved his hand: "I'm not free tomorrow, let's try another day!"

"……good!"
Chapter completed!
