Chapter 176

Yang Zhi, who was already five points drunk, was happy at first, but soon shook his head: "No, that's a thousand guan, Sun Dutou..." He didn't say the following words, but the meaning was clear. After these days, he couldn't sell the knife, and he regretted the price he offered by the lion. He knew that almost no one in the entire Tokyo city would pay such a large sum of money to buy only one knife.

Sun Tu laughed: "Brother Yang thinks I can't afford the money? Or are you afraid that I will force you too much?"

"Yang is grateful for your kindness, but you are not easy to get money in the officialdom, but you spend a lot of money. There is really no need to spend a lot of money to buy a knife..." Yang Zhi still had his own persistence.

Sun Tu did not argue with him anymore, but stood up, walked to the counter, and said a few words to the shopkeeper Wu Li. Although the latter looked surprised, he still asked a friend to whisper a few instructions according to his wishes, and then took out a wooden box from the cabinet under the counter and handed it to Sun Tu.

Sun Tu thanked him, then returned to the table and opened the wooden box Liang to see it clearly for Yang Zhi: "This is 200 taels of silver. The shop will ask for 300 taels of silver from the nearby bank to send it. So you should believe that I am not worried about the money, right?"

The people of the Song Dynasty did not circulate much silver, but compared with the larger and heavier copper coins, some merchants would still use silver when conducting large transactions. The money shops in major prefectures and cities in the world were businesses that provided silver and copper coins exchange and storage services for these customers.

Looking at the box of silver shaking in front of him, Yang Zhi looked at Sun Tu in surprise again: "Sun Dutou, are you the descendant of a famous family?" But then he denied this conjecture. If Sun Tu was really a child of an official, how could he be the head of Kaifeng Prefecture with a low status?

Sun Tu also shook his head indeed: "I just happened to have a friendship with a powerful child and ran this restaurant with him. However, in the past six months, I have received the bonus that belongs to me in the future, and today I will only receive it together."

Yang Zhi then realized it, but was still very surprised and looked at Sun Tu carefully for a while: "It seems that a thousand guan is really not a difficult task for Sun Dutou?"

Sun Tu just smiled and did not answer. Instead, he said after filling the other party with a cup, "I'm curious about it. If Brother Yang, you really got this thousand stalemates, but you plan to spend some money? Do you want to use this money to buy Taiwei Gao?"

However, Yang Zhi was stopped by him. He had never thought about what happened next. He had just taken one step at a time before. Seeing him stunned, Sun Tu said again: "In the next simple opinion, if you ask Taiwei Gao again, the result will not change. The final result will only be that all the money will be spent, but your charge may not be exempted, let alone take back the official position."

If Sun Tu had said this before, Yang Zhi would not take it seriously. But now, the young man's status in his mind has improved a lot, which made him unconsciously begin to be cautious about his statement: "How do you say this?"

"First of all, as the Taiwei Gao, he may not take this mere thousand stakes of money to heart; secondly, he has already expressed his attitude before, and even for his own face, it is impossible for him to repeat it again; thirdly, if Brother Yang's lawsuit is really made clear, there are indeed some future problems, and he will not be able to take the risk of being dissatisfied by the government for you."

"This...what should I do?" Yang Zhi was immediately confused. He was not a fool. After Sun Tu analyzed it, he found that the road was indeed blocked.

Sun Tu picked up a chopstick of vegetables and chewed them slowly for a while before he said, "So it is best to change the party and ask other senior officials in the court to protect you."

"How easy is this?" Yang Zhi's face was full of bitterness. Military officers like him were not popular in the court, let alone making big mistakes and running away. So when he asked Gao Qiu's door, it was because the other party was his old boss. He felt that he could use his incense, but other senior officials did not recognize him at all, so how could he help him?

Sun Tu saw what he was worried about and said, "If Brother Yang really trusts me, I will help you with this matter. Of course, you can still keep the money and other things yourself. It's not too late for us to calculate it after the matter is done."

"You... are really willing to help me?" Yang Zhi was so excited that he almost stood up, his voice trembling a little. It was because he had suffered too much in the past six months, and his mood was even more ups and downs. I really hoped that there would be a good result.

"Although I, Sun Tu, is not a big shot, I still have to say the word "Xin". Since I promised Brother Yang, I will do it." Sun Tu said, and raised his wine glass.

Yang Zhi hurriedly held the cup in his hands and clinked with him: "I am not grateful for my kindness. If Sun Dutou really can help Yang get through this difficulty, I, Yang Zhi, will never forget this life!"

Just after the two of them had dried the wine in the glass, Wu Li had already walked over with a bag and said respectfully to Sun Tu: "Officials, here is three hundred taels of silver. The total amount of five hundred coins is exactly the same as the money you have in the cabinet."

"It's time for Manager Wu, you go and do your business." Sun Tu thanked him and took the bag of silver weighing more than ten kilograms to Yang Zhi: "Brother Yang, please doll it up first. By the way, if you don't dislike it, you can just call me a Saburo."

"Okay. I can trust Saburo's character, so I don't need to count it." Yang Zhi said, and put the wooden box full of silver into the package, and then moved the precious sword at his hand: "Leave this knife to Saburo now."

"No hurry, there is still half of the money I haven't given to you." Sun Tu smiled and shook his head, "I'd like to ask Brother Yang to go somewhere else to take out the remaining five hundred taels of silver to you."

"Okay." Yang Zhi relaxed at this time. He had already owed the other party a favor. He didn't even mention the difference between one tael of silver and one tael of silver and three hundred coins. He just swept away all the wine and food in front of him and followed Sun Tu out of the restaurant.

After the two walked along the street market for a while, Sun Tu stopped in front of a store with the "Qinxiangzhai" sign. After several customers happily bought things and left, they walked into the store: "Boss Zhou, business has been booming recently!"

"It turns out that Sun Dutou is here, please sit down quickly." The merchant who was putting the money sold into the counter immediately smiled so hard that his eyes became a thin slit when he saw Sun Tu. He quickly stepped forward to greet him and Yang Zhi were given in, and asked the friend to serve them tea, which seemed quite enthusiastic.

After a few greetings and drinking tea soup with complicated tastes, the boss Zhou said with anticipation: "Du Tou, you are willing to come. If you want to come again today, the young man wants to come to the door and ask for a meeting. Please prepare some of the goods for the small shop."

"Why, those medicinal liquids for bathing and shampooing can be sold?" Sun Tu asked with a faint smile.

"Not only that, now every day, people come to ask about what medicine liquid you want to buy. The clay pots you prepared for us were almost over." As he said that, Boss Zhou stood up and took out a wooden box from the counter and pushed it to Sun Tu: "This is the profit agreed upon, 230 taels of silver, please call us for the first time."

Yang Zhi was surprised again. He could understand that Sun Tu could get 500 taels of silver in half a year when he cooperated with someone in the restaurant. After all, he also knew that Liu Fangju's business has always been very good, and it was considered a daily profit of gold. But now a small shop selling fragrant powder and rouge can actually allow Sun Tu to obtain a profit of 200 taels of silver. Is this business too easy to do?

He didn't know what Sun Tu was doing here, which were all kinds of daily chemicals taken out from the No. 8 warehouse of Jie Zhongjie Warehouse System. That's right, they were shampoos, shower gels and other cleaning supplies that were very common in later generations.

With the continuous handling of cases in the past few months, Sun Tu not only gained the title of Iron-Faced Yama, but also increased his level in the Judge Zhongjie system again, and finally opened a brand new No. 8 warehouse. Of course, Sun Tu sometimes felt strange. He was almost a household name in Tokyo City, but why his level in the system was only increased by one level? If it were based on the previous results in Yuncheng County, he should have opened more than a dozen or twenty warehouses.

If the experience required to upgrade the system is greatly increased as the system increases, the only explanation would be that what the system really calculates is the level of the host identity. After all, Sun Tu has been just a ninth-rank military officer for a while, and he has not even changed his mission, and he is still the little one under Kaifeng Mansion.

However, Sun Tu was not too obsessed with this, so he simply took out the daily chemicals and put them into the bottles and jars that are common today, and got several specialty rouge and water powder stores for consignment.

The so-called consignment means that the owner of the goods gives up his own goods and gives them the profits to the store for sale because he has no shop. However, Sun Tu's profits to several powder stores this time are really not low. The price of a small bottle of shampoo is two cents, but he is willing to share the other party with 500 cents, which is higher than the profits made by the store selling his own goods.

Because it is profitable, these shops desperately recommended these "washing medicine liquids" that they had never seen before to their regular customers. When women from good backgrounds tried the washing products that were thousands of years later at home, they immediately fell in love with this smooth and dry feeling, and then they would not even look down on cardamoms and other things now.

Tokyo City was originally the capital of the Song Dynasty, which was made up of wealth in the world. Naturally, the noble ladies in the city also had to get fresh. Once it was spread, these wash-and-washing liquids immediately became the most popular powder in the city this year - after all, the fragrance of these shower gel shampoos is more than that of ordinary rouge - in the end, even the courtesans in the city used them.

As a result, the inventory of several stores was quickly sold, and all the large cans of washing medicine that Sun Tu had originally stored were sold out. Now that Boss Zhou saw Sun Tu, he naturally seemed to meet the God of Wealth.
