Chapter 4578 The price is too low
Li Xiaoxie and Li Renyu pursed their lips and stopped talking.
Do you dare to chop off Li Daoli's head? Probably they wouldn't dare, even if Li Daoli was the murderer of Fang Yizhi.
But if he rushed to the door of their house and set fire to their palace, Fang Er would definitely dare to do so.
Li Shenfu rubbed his swollen temples and said in a muffled voice: "This matter has been decided. Let's not start any more disputes. Let's quickly discuss raising money and silk. Otherwise, if the delivery cannot be made by the date, who knows what the second house boy will do?" Why are you crazy?”
The most disturbing thing was that the two matters of compensating Fang Jun and Li Tai's departure from Beijing came together, making him unable to distract him. They had already been planned, so why did Li Tai leave Beijing quietly?
Could it be that someone leaked the news?
It shouldn’t be...
Probably because Li Tai's goal was too big, the current situation was so turbulent that Li Tai himself realized something was wrong, so he left Chang'an first.
It seems that we should choose a smaller target. Although the effect is not as good as assassinating Li Tai, it is easier to succeed...
Li Daoli couldn't care about Li Tai at all now. The first thing he needed to do was to secure the compensation: "It's not like you two have to bear all the compensation. There are also many people on your side who are involved. You have to pay for it. Second, Isn’t it too much for each of you to share 200,000 yuan? I will give you 200,000 yuan, and my uncle will give you another 200,000 yuan. This will be enough, and everyone will be at ease.”
After a pause, he whispered again: "This money is just temporarily taken out. As long as the big thing we have planned succeeds, we can naturally get it back ten times and a hundred times. Why bother to anger Fang Jun at this time and make things turn upside down?" ?”
To put it bluntly, this incident was caused by Li Shaokang's incompetence in leaking his identity, and he must bear the main responsibility.
Li Shenfu said impatiently: "There should be no problem, right?"
Li Xiaoxie said: "The problem is not big, but I definitely don't have any cash. I can only come up with some real estate and land deeds."
Li Daoli patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, leave it all to me. I will find someone to sell these properties and land deeds into cash in the noble circle. You don't need to worry."
It is not easy to get these princes and heirs to take out the money, but he does not dare to care whether it is cash, otherwise once these people cheat, is he really waiting for Fang Jun to knock on the door?
Moreover, it is now a prosperous time, and things like real estate and land are constantly appreciating, so they are often sold at a premium. As long as you do it properly, you can even make a profit to make up for this loss...
"Then let's do this. Immediately raise enough real estate and land deeds and give them to Prince Dongping, and ask him to find someone to cash them in. Then hand over the compensation to Fang Jun as soon as possible and end this matter. Otherwise, Fang Jun will not give up, and it will be very difficult. It’s easy to ruin our big event.”
Li Shenfu made the final decision.
No matter how depressed Li Xiaoxie and Li Renyu were, they could only nod in agreement.
The original intention was to provoke Fang Jun by assassinating Fang Yizhi, causing him to lose his mind in anger and break out into conflict with the clan, thereby alienating the relationship between him and His Majesty. Unexpectedly, Li Shaokang not only failed in the assassination, but even leaked his possessions and was arrested. Seizing the handle caused Fang Jun to take advantage of the principles and be aggressive and aggressive.
Not only did it not achieve its goal, but it made itself completely passive. It was really a waste of money.
But they didn't dare to seriously ignore it, otherwise Li Daoli would confess them all under Fang Jun's pressure, and Zongzheng Temple and Dali Temple would inevitably intervene. If there was another "Trial of the Three Laws Division", his title would not be preserved.
Fortunately, they have a more far-reaching plan. As long as they succeed, no matter how big the loss is, they can be saved...
*****
Ever since Cheng Yaojin led his army out of Liangzhou, the huge Duke Lu's mansion had been deserted, and there were only a few carriages and horses. Cheng Chumo, who was in charge of the family business, just closed the door to thank guests, unless there was any wedding or funeral for relatives, friends, or colleagues. Not seeing outsiders, living behind closed doors, not causing trouble.
However, Li Daoli, who is the king of the clan and the county, came to visit, but was not able to see him...
In the main hall, Cheng Chu, who had a short mustache and a strong body, sat silently at the main seat and invited Li Daoli to drink tea. Then he looked coldly and asked: "The prince is a noble man from Tianhuang. He came today and made the humble house full of glory... It's just that My father had told me before he went out that all matters should be dealt with when he comes back, so no matter what the prince comes to do today, I can’t decide, so please don’t say anything.”
Li Daoli: "..."
It is said that Cheng Yaojin is a "devil in the world", with a arrogant personality, willful behavior, and is unreasonable and unreasonable. Who would have expected that this Cheng Chumo is actually better than his master? He doesn't care about the way to entertain guests and refuses people thousands of miles away when he opens his mouth.
Is it so rude?
But although he was angry in his heart, he couldn't just walk away. Real estate and land deeds worth hundreds of thousands of dollars were not something that just anyone could acquire. There were not many "big clients" with as much money as Duke Lu's Mansion.
He could only be patient and said with a smile: "What my nephew said is obvious. You and I are close friends. Even if your father is not in the capital, don't you welcome me as a guest?"
< br>
Cheng Chumo's dark face seemed to be expressionless, and his character seemed to be upright and dull: "The prince should also know that this junior is stupid and will never say anything polite. If you have anything to say, you can tell me directly, and I will tell you in a letter." Father, if nothing happens, please help yourself.”
Li Daoli was a little speechless.
Strange to say, some of the eldest sons of Zhenguan ministers in the court did not seem to be very smart people. Cheng Chu was dull, ignorant, and ignorant of worldly things. Fang Yizhi was also too pedantic and not good at words. No wonder Emperor Taizong preferred to choose The second sons of these noble families...
He could only say: "To be honest, I came here today to give my nephew a way to make money."
There is no way. When facing such a stupid and honest person, you have to speak clearly, otherwise the other party will not understand it at all.
Cheng Chumo remained expressionless: "The palace has money and silk, which is enough for spending. We don't need any way to make money. The prince should keep it for himself."
Li Daoli: "..."
Can we have a good chat? !
I was so choked that I had no choice but to get straight to the point: "I have always known that Lu Guogong has the skills to make money and his family is extremely wealthy. Recently, a friend encountered difficulties and lacked money and silk, so he wanted to transfer a property in Dongshi worth 50,000 yuan. For a while, it was difficult to find a buyer for the shop, so I came here and transferred it for 40,000 yuan. This can not only solve my friend's urgent need, but also give my family more property. I wonder if my nephew can make the decision. "
Cheng Chumo shook his head and said: "My father is not here, so I don't dare to touch the warehouse without permission."
Li Daoli said patiently: "The shop of 50,000 guan was transferred for 40,000 guan, and my nephew made a profit of 10,000 guan. Moreover, the shop here is located in the most prosperous area of East City, and it can be used as a family heirloom. If your nephew makes this deal, you will be greatly comforted if you find out about it.”
Cheng Chumo seemed to be a little moved, thought for a while, and said: "Twenty thousand strings."
Li Daoli was stunned: "What?"
"If a shop worth 50,000 guan is taken over and the net profit is 30,000 guan, my father may be happy and praise me a few words. If I only make 10,000 guan, my father may not see it and will not praise me. It is meaningless. .”
Li Daoli: "..."
This was the third time that he was speechless. Is this guy stupid? Can he bargain so hard?
If someone else had bargained like this, he would have walked away immediately. That's nonsense, right?
But this person is Cheng Chumo, so he can't be angry, because he doesn't care about business at all, nor does he care about making money. He only cares about whether he can make his father happy and praise him a few words...
He is a filial son.
Li Daoli had no choice but to use his sharp tongue to analyze the benefits of this deal for Cheng Chumo. Not only could he earn 10,000 yuan backhand, but it would also add a piece of family business to the Cheng family that could be passed down to his family. This was not A mere ten thousand guan can measure it...
However, Cheng Chu was silent and said that Cheng Yaojin would not look down upon ten thousand guan. If he wanted to buy this shop, he could only spend 20,000 guan.
Li Daoli was so angry that his patience ran out, he immediately stood up and left with a puff of his sleeves.
All the princes and heirs who participated in the plot to assassinate Fang Yizhi contributed money or property. Under the calculation of the manager of Li Shenfu Mansion, he collected 200,000 guan in cash and 600,000 guan in property. , all the properties were transferred and realized by Li Daoli.
This shop is Li Xiaoxie's property, and its current market price is around 30,000 guan. It's just that since the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and the officials are in charge of the Ming Dynasty, it can be regarded as a prosperous era, so fixed assets such as real estate, land, and shops are often traded at a premium. The asking price of a 20,000-guan shop is 50,000 guan, which leaves Cheng Chumo room for bargaining. Li Daoli's mental price is around 40,000 guan. In this way, he can still earn 10,000 guan from it to make up for his own losses.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Chumo was only willing to pay out 20,000 guan without the money and salt. Could it be possible that he would have to pay 10,000 guan as well?
This is simply unreasonable!
Lu Guogong Cheng Yaojin was considered to be the most adept at business among the Zhenguan officials. Over the years, the seizures from the battles, the emperor's rewards, and the income from business operations had made the family business bigger and bigger, and the financial resources were strong, so Li Daoli came to visit him.
However, it was not just Cheng Yaojin's family who had money among the nobles of the day.
However, after coming out of Lu Guogong's mansion, he successively renewed contracts with several wealthy nobles. Li Daoli gradually felt that something was wrong, because although these people were either enthusiastic or indifferent, they had one thing in common - they kept the prices down too hard.
For example, for a house worth 20,000 guan, the bid was only half, and for Zhuangzi, which was worth 80,000 guan, he only offered 30,000 guan...
This is to lower the price to death!
In the past, such high-quality assets were hard to come by, and one would rather buy them at a premium. But why is it so different now?
Li Daoli was horrified. The property worth 600,000 guan was calculated and verified by the manager of Xiangyi County Prince's Mansion. Everyone recognized it. Now these properties cannot be sold for 600,000 guan at all. Doesn't he have to add the price difference? ?
Mother!
Li Daoli broke out in a cold sweat. Is this going to ruin everything... (End of Chapter)
