Chapter 421: Choice (Part 1)
It's over, the eldest young master is going crazy again!
Hearing this, the inn shopkeeper next to him couldn't help but cover his face with his hands and glared at the clerk not far away. Why did he find this master?
The guy also showed an innocent look. He didn't expect that it was dark and the eldest young master was still in the business. What could he do?
Speaking of this young master of the Tang family, everyone in Heishui County gave him a thumbs up and praised him with loyalty. Someone even gave him a plaque "Yi Gai Yuntian".
Of course this is superficial. In private, more people are willing to call him a fool, a prodigal son, etc.
But no matter how others think of themselves, this young master still does his own way and makes good connections. The people he can like to like will more or less benefit. That is, the Tang family has a great business and has the gold mine of Heishui Port, otherwise no matter how much money he would have, it would not be enough for him to spend like this.
There were many complaints within the Tang family, but the eldest young master was supported by Mrs. Tang, and even Tang Wei had no choice but to do anything about him. In the words of the old lady, the money earned by the Tang family was enough for the grandson to spend several lifetimes, and spend more as good deeds.
"It's not necessary to be free. If you don't receive any rewards, you can get as much money as you should. We need a lot of things."
Zhuang Hai squinted his eyes and looked at the white-faced young man in front of him. His mind was running rapidly. Heishui County was located in a remote location. Judging from factors such as time and space, the people here should not know their identities. Unless they were from the secret inspectors, the speed of the pigeon was not as fast as that of the Xinying, but the speed of the message was indeed much faster than riding a horse.
But in such a remote place, even the power of the escort department is extremely limited, so they should not have come to the door so boldly.
In this way, what is the idea of this guy in front of him?
"Huh? Don't even give it away?"
The white-faced young man was a little surprised and then laughed and said, "Don't get me wrong. I, Tang Hao, don't have much ability, and I like to make friends all over the world."
He pointed to a box of jade steel swords he brought over, "Even if these weapons are gifts I give you, if you don't believe them, you can go outside and inquire."
Zhuang Haixin scored seven points for Tang Hao's words, but he still refused: "No need, we need four hundred knives of this kind of knife, two hundred shields, and one hundred sets of leather armor. Is there any horse? We must have good endurance, and about eight hundred horses in a few miles."
Considering that he had to travel lightly and simply by rushing on the road, he did not ask for bows and arrows. After all, he brought too many things, which would affect his journey. If the horses were to ride together, he would try to ride two people.
When he heard that the rich man in front of him wanted eight hundred horses, the inn shopkeeper's knees became weak and he almost couldn't stand steadily. You should know that no matter where he was, the price of a horse was high. The price of an ordinary horse ranged from about forty to sixty taels, and the price of a good horse ranged from about sixty to eighty taels.
Eight hundred horses can sell at least more than 30,000 taels of silver, which is not a small amount!
Thinking of this, he felt that he could no longer remain silent. If this young master who was not in charge of the family and did not know that the price of food and rice really sent out these 800 war horses, the head of the family would definitely have stripped him down.
"Please rest assured, this guest official, we have the things you want in the Tang Family Store, but the price is-"
"Price is based on cost."
Young Master Tang Hao spoke again. He looked at Zhuang Hai with a little embarrassedly, "What you want is not cheap. If you give it all, my father will probably break my legs."
"Okay, we will be right now tomorrow morning. Please send the things over as soon as possible!"
Zhuang Hai was too lazy to bargain. After all, the other party said it was a cost price, and it would be a little ignorant to cut it down.
"Haha, please feel free, don't worry, I, Tang Hao, spitting and having a nail, will make people send the things over!"
Seeing his young master discussing a big business in just a few words, the inn shopkeeper was crying without tears. Fortunately, he didn't lose much at all. When a young master like this in the Tang family suddenly felt a little sympathetic to the master.
The sympathized head of the Tang family is now receiving an uninvited guest in the side hall of the mansion.
Looking at the dark-skinned, thin and wrinkled old man in front of him, it is difficult for unfamiliar people to associate him with Tang Wei, but it is this old man with no astonishing appearance who has created the gold mine of Heishui Port.
"Master Tang, it's really not easy to meet you!"
Ding Yihai suppressed his anger and said lightly, if he did not indicate his identity, he would probably not even be able to enter the Tang family's door tonight!
"Mr. Ding calms down. The people below are ignorant. I will definitely punish them severely. By the way, today seems to be a happy day for the adults to take a concubine. I have to ask someone to prepare a gift."
"No need, I came to my house this time, because I need help from the leader of the Tang family."
Ding Yihai is straightforward.
Tang Wei took a sip of tea and said slowly: "Even the secret inspection department is difficult, how can we, Tang Wei, help? Lord Ding is probably going to waste his time."
"The Lord of Tang underestimates himself too much. For you, this matter is just a matter of raising hands. A serious criminal in the court fled to Heishui County. We have not enough staff here, so we want to borrow Heishui Guard from the Lord of Tang. If the Lord of Tang can help us catch the important criminal, the court will definitely have many rewards, and it is not difficult to get a single official and half title."
Tang Wei waved his hand, "Mr. Ding is making things difficult for me. Don't you know the rules of my Heishui Port? No matter who you are, as long as you enter Heishui Port and pay the money, he will be a guest of the Tang family. If I mobilize Heishui Guard to help the adults arrest the important criminals, what will others think? It's not just the important criminals of Qianguo here. Once the rules are broken, how can the Tang family convince people?"
"If the head of the Tang family is willing to help, the court will pay back all the losses. I hope the head of the family will think carefully! Moreover, the navy led by the Lord has arrived in the South China Sea and will arrive here soon. With the strength of the court's navy, it can completely help the Tang Mansion control the Heishui Port!"
Tang Wei's expression changed slightly. He didn't care about Qian's rewards, but the navy was different. The power he mastered was not worth mentioning in front of the navy of a country.
Thinking of this, Tang Wei's attitude eased, "I still need time to think about this matter!"
"Yes, but I hope you can give a reply and say goodbye before the sun comes out!"
After Ding Yihai said that, he stood up and walked outside. Regardless of whether Tang Wei agreed to help or not, he would go back and prepare for the worst.
"It's really a disaster that comes from the sky."
Tang Wei sighed in his heart, put down the teacup, and said to the outside: "Come on, go and invite your wife!"
Everyone outside thought that Tang Wei was able to achieve what he has today depends entirely on himself and his group of brothers. Only he himself knew that this was all thanks to one person, and he was just a pawn running errands.
