Chapter 797 Isnt it the price set by the emperor?
"Four thousand guan." When the old eunuch said the price, he was still surprised. If it weren't for repeated verification, he wouldn't dare to report to the emperor.
"Are you sure it's four thousand taels, not four hundred taels?" Old Zhu stared at the old eunuch.
"I am sure that it is a lucky ship worth four thousand guan and four hundred materials. Zhenhai Hou sold a 4,000 treasure banknote. What's strange is that the merchants are actually rushing to buy it."
"A lucky ship with a 400-year-old material sold for 4,000 guan. Do you think I am stupid?" Lao Zhu roared.
The old eunuch shivered in fear and knelt on the ground, kowtowing like pounding garlic, "I don't dare, but Zhenhai Hou did sell so much."
Just as the old eunuch was kneeling on the ground and trembling, an eunuch came to report to the Marquis of Zhenhai to ask for a meeting.
The old eunuch said happily as if he had caught a life-saving straw: "Emperor, the Marquis of Zhenhai is here. I will know if it is true or false when asked."
The anger on Lao Zhu's face calmed down a little, and he said in a deep voice: "Cross."
After saying that, he looked at the old eunuch kneeling on the ground and said, "Get up too, the ground is cold."
"Emperor Xie." He stood up from the ground like an amnesty.
After Han Du walked into the hall to pay homage to Lao Zhu, he raised his head and glanced at Lao Zhu and the old eunuch in his eyes, feeling that their expressions were a little wrong.
"What's wrong? Did I come at the wrong time?" Han Du was puzzled.
Lao Zhu didn't care what Han Du was thinking and asked, "What's the matter with you? Are you in a hurry to see me?"
Han Du suddenly came to his senses and said with a smile: "Didn't I sell some ships? I thought that these ships were naval warships after all, and it was not good for me to hold the silver for selling the ships, so I sent them to the emperor."
When Lao Zhu heard that he had obtained the money, the smile on his face became much stronger and he asked casually: "How many boats have you sold?"
"I sold twenty-two pieces. These are the treasure money for selling the ship. They are all here." Han Du took out the box in his arms.
The old eunuch quickly came down to take the box, opened it and saw that it was indeed full of stacks of treasure money, and he happily presented the box to Lao Zhu.
Old Zhu looked into the box with a smile on his face, reached out to count, and his face suddenly darkened, "Is this number wrong?"
"Yes, the money for the twenty-two boats is here." Han Du said relaxedly.
Lao Zhu threw the treasure banknote into the box, "What's right? How much is it here?"
"Ten 7,200 trump cards, no shortage of money."
"Twenty-two boats, you sold 4,000 guan per boat. Do you think this amount is right?" Old Zhu stared at Han Du angrily.
"Your Majesty, are you wrong? Didn't you say that you can just sell it as a new ship, or even a little less. I calculated it according to the price of the new ship. Twenty-two ships, one 800 guan, a total of 17,200 guan, that's right." Han Du said with confidence.
"But you obviously sold 4,000 guan in one boat."
Han Du explained with a smile: "Your Majesty, what you originally thought was to sell 800 guan in a boat, right? Now it's just sold according to your ideas? As for how much the minister sells to merchants, that's my business."
If you can sell 4,000 guan per boat, that is the money you earn based on your ability. What does this have to do with you, Lao Zhu? Just take the original price.
"You obviously sold four thousand
If you want to be a guanyi, you will only give me 800 coins?" Old Zhu said with anger.
"Your Majesty, you can't say that." Han Du said with a smile, "I sold 4,000 guan, because I think it can be sold at this price. But the emperor thinks that no one buys 800 guan, right? Since the emperor thinks that it can be sold 800 guan, it is equivalent to selling the ship to me first, and then reselling it to those merchants. Thinking of this way, do you think that I have given 800 guan, and there is no mistake in missing?"
"But you sold 4,000 guan a piece of money." Lao Zhu still refused to give in and bit Han Du how much it sold.
Seeing that Lao Zhu was obsessed with his money, Han Du also took it aside, "Your Majesty, if you think so, then I have no choice. Otherwise, you can sell the boats in another person, let alone sell 4,000 guan. He can sell 800 guan. I am considered to be capable of him."
Lao Zhu naturally knew that Han Du was telling the truth. If he changed his name to sell, it would be difficult to sell 800 coins. But he watched Han Du make tens of thousands of coins in vain, but I can't make any money at all, so Lao Zhu was very unwilling to accept it.
After thinking for a while, Lao Zhu suddenly smiled and said, "What do you mean is your ability to sell it? This money has nothing to do with me?"
Han Du smiled, nodded, and did not say anything, but the expression on his face was just agreeing with Lao Zhu's statement.
When Lao Zhu saw this, he naturally understood it and did not argue with Han Du. Instead, he said directly: "These ships are weapons after all, and they were originally forbidden to buy them. Because the merchants had no ships available, they had to allow them to buy ships. Since you think how much money you sell is your ability, you will not sell these weapons. If you have the ability, go find the ship to sell them."
"No! Your Majesty!" Han Du suddenly became anxious. Now only the navy has ships. Except for the navy's ships, where can Han Du find a ship to sell to those merchants?
"Your Majesty, you can discuss something." Han Du no longer had the toughness he had just now and began to become humble.
His arrogant and respectful look at the beginning and then made the old eunuch next to him smile. He was worried that Han Du would make his will angry just now, but he didn't expect that the emperor would easily control Han Du.
Old Zhu smiled slightly and said, "Can you speak well?"
"Can, can."
"Can we discuss it?" Lao Zhu asked teasingly again.
"Yes, yes."
"Okay, since you can speak well, then you will send half of the remaining money to me." Old Zhu waved his hand domineeringly, not afraid that Han Du would disagree. If he disagrees, I will take back the ship and not sell it.
"I obey the order," Han Du's face thrusts in pain, and he said with a smile: "Even if the emperor doesn't say it, I have decided to respect him long ago."
Having suffered losses in money, Han Du naturally wanted to take advantage of it verbally.
But Lao Zhu is not a fuel-efficient lamp, so he doesn't give Han Du the opportunity to take advantage of it. "Since you are so filial, should you send your other half to me?"
Han Du was choked when he heard this and stood there in embarrassment without saying a word.
Lao Zhu said this and was just a bickering with Han Du, and he didn't take it seriously. Instead, he was curious about how Han Du sold ships at high prices.
"Even if this lucky ship is newly built, it is only 800 guan per person. I am very confused. How did you use to sell the old ship to 400 guan per person?" "400 guan." When the old eunuch said the price, he was still surprised. If it weren't for repeated verification, he wouldn't dare to report to the emperor.
"Are you sure it's four thousand taels, not four hundred taels?" Old Zhu stared at the old eunuch.
