After dressing up as a superb old lady, I became the backbone of the whole village Chapter Five Hundred and Forty-Three The money doesn't give up, people still stay
Chapter Five Hundred and Forty-Three The money doesn't give up, people still stay
Zheng Ze got everything he asked for, so there was no reason not to agree, not to mention that this move was inevitable and the national destiny of Dai Viet was going to be the trend.
He knows better than anyone else how difficult it is for the fate of Dai Viet to return from a fierce and murderous momentum to such a peaceful situation. Although he claims to have a perfect plan, he does not know the origin of Chen Yu, so he attributes all this to the people.
Because the sufferings experienced by the current emperor among the people have never been experienced by the successors of the past dynasties, so the ruler who governs the world is the credit of the people, and the more detailed ones are the credit of the Su family.
Chen Yu, who was far away in Huizhou Prefecture, sneezed and raised his hand to rub his nose.
"It seems that the second lady knew that you were going to visit her and was talking about you." Mrs. Wang brought a cup of tea to Chen Yu and said with a smile.
Chen Yu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid I'm still complaining in my heart, but I can't do anything at all. I have no choice."
"Second Miss will definitely understand you." Mrs. Wang stood aside.
Xunmei is packing her bags. Lengxiang will be with the Sixth Lady to manage the accounts from now on. The longer she stays with her master, the more she knows how difficult it is for him. Mrs. Wang doesn't say anything, but in her heart she wants to be considerate and handle everything.
It's appropriate, so that the master can relax a little bit.
"Meet Mrs. Su."
Someone raised a voice outside.
Mrs. Wang went out to the door, opened the door and looked out: "Who is it?"
The boy quickly put on a smile and said, "It's someone from the dock. He said he wanted to talk to the old lady about the craftsmen."
Mrs. Wang looked at the dark-skinned man and woman: "Wait a moment."
When Chen Yu heard the word craftsman, she thought of glass and asked Mrs. Wang to bring someone in.
"Mrs. Su, can we stay together?" The man spoke in Dai Viet Mandarin in a stiff tongue: "My name is Khenpo, and she is my woman's name is Kira."
Chen Yu looked at the two people and asked: "Making colored glaze?"
"Yes, yes." Khenpo stretched out his big hands that were dissatisfied with calluses: "I am very capable, and so is Kira. We only hope that Mrs. Su can buy us."
"We have no family, so don't go back to the country of Ala." Kira knelt on the ground with her hands clasped together: "We are very cheap, only five hundred taels."
Chen Yu shook his head: "No."
Khenpo's eyes widened: "Didn't you say that you would be given several thousand taels of silver for just one year's employment? We only need five hundred taels."
Kira also looked incredulous.
"I don't know what your previous status was. If you were slaves, I would have to negotiate the price with your master. Besides, the Su family is a serious businessman and they will not take escaped slaves." Chen Yu looked at the expressions of the two people:
"Of course, if there's no problem with your origins, that'll be easy."
Kira covered her face and cried.
Khenpo stretched out his arms to hug Kira, and the two of them helped each other stand up, turned around and walked out.
Next to her, Mrs. Wang was anxious: "Old madam, why don't you stay?"
"The origin is unknown. If they make up their minds, they will come back." Chen Yu brought the tea to his lips and took a sip before saying: "It's only August now, and the departure of foreign merchants only started at the end of September. We can't just because of these two
I personally ruined the reputation of the Su family."
Mrs. Wang still felt it was a pity, but the old lady was very organized in everything, so she didn't dare to ask any more questions.
Soon, Mrs. Wang knew that the old lady was really powerful, because someone directly tied Khenpo and Qi La with ropes and led them to Tongfu Tower like animals, asking to see the old lady Su.
Chen Yu saw at a glance that he was a merchant selling colored glaze beads, and smiled and asked him to sit down: "I thought you would be reluctant to part with the craftsmen under you."
"They voluntarily refused to go back. I am not short of two slaves. Do you still count the price Mrs. Su said?" The merchant put one hand on his heart: "My name is Dragu, and I will never come here again. After all,
No one in Dai Viet likes my treasure."
Chen Yu smiled: "Dragu, these two people are your slaves. What I want is to hire craftsmen. I don't want to use them for the rest of my life."
"They are very capable at work." Dragu glanced at Khenpo: "And they are very smart."
Chen Yu asked: "How much did you spend to buy them?"
"That's not possible. Mrs. Su doesn't want to give so much money, does she?" Dragu was a little unhappy. He had gained too little from this trip and still had a long way to go back. It was really unlucky.
Chen Yu lowered his eyes: "The glass beads are very beautiful, but they are not suitable for use and are valuable. Let's do this. I will give you a way to turn these glass beads into treasures. How about you give me these two people?"
"
Dragu frowned: "I still don't want to pay."
"What I'm giving you is a way to make money. If you don't want to, just tell me how much you can sell these two people to me. I can train many craftsmen in one year of employment, but you want me to keep these two people in Dai Viet."
Country, you know, there is no such thing as slaves in our country of Dayue. I have to find a way to make them people recognized by the Yamen and the court of Dayue. This is not easy." Chen Yu looked at Dragu: "Besides, yours
Glass beads will not sell well anywhere. My method can make your glass beads a treasure that nobles are rushing to buy. Isn’t it money?”
Dracula was doubtful: "How can I trust you?"
"I believe you will keep your promise, so I will tell you the method first." Chen Yu took out a pearl bracelet: "When there are no holes, pearls are just beads. After drilling holes, they can be necklaces, bracelets and earrings.
Son, right?"
Dracula's eyes almost popped out, and he felt as if someone had hit him in the head with a stick.
Chen Yu took off the hairpin and asked, "What if the gemstones in the hairpin are replaced by glass beads? Or maybe there are skilled craftsmen who can make hairpins out of glass?"
"God, what have I experienced?" Dracula knelt on the ground excitedly, holding the sky with both hands in joy or pain, which was simply too funny in the eyes of others.
Chen Yu was not the same. Dracula felt it was ironic because he had glass beads in his hand, but they were only glass beads, and he had let him find a way to sell them.
"I gave these two people to Mrs. Su. If I come back in three years, I will take them back." Dracula put the two keys on Chen Yu's table: "Three years later, we
We will meet again. If I become prosperous, I will thank you very much."
After Chen Yu sent Dracula away, he felt a little regretful. He really couldn't bear to part with so much money, especially since Khenpo and Kira were determined to stay. If they could give Dracula some advice,
It's a great deal to get two craftsmen. The money has to fill the treasury. The Su family is under too much pressure, so save what you can.
Before leaving, Chen Yu called Yan Gui and Zhou Yufeng to him: "Have you two discussed your marriage?"
Zhou Yufeng lowered her head, blushing and not daring to look at Chen Yu.
Yan Gui said in a deep voice: "Back to the old lady, Yan Gui will marry Yu Feng according to the rules."
"Okay, from now on you can follow Yufeng and call me grandma. I will hand Yufeng over to you, and you will protect her here." Chen Yu looked at Yangui: "The adopted son of the Ninth Prince is only for outsiders to see.
You should know your identity when the goose returns, and you may not go to the battlefield to make great achievements, but the Huizhou Navy can have a place."
Yan Gui knelt on the ground: "Yes, grandma, don't worry, Yan Gui must let Yu Feng's wife rely on her husband's status and never let her suffer any injustice."
Fate is so weird and adorable. Looking at this couple, who would have thought that they could get together?
