The scene just now was not even a scene in Han Du's eyes. What was there to be ashamed of?
But since Lan Yu thinks that his performance is good, Han Du will naturally seize the opportunity to leave a good impression on Lan Yu, and then take the opportunity to repay the favor he owes. Money and goods are both settled, so there will be no entanglement.
"Master Hou is so complimentary."
Lan Yu wiped away her sweat, put on her brocade clothes, and sat down on the chair in front of Han Du. Then she asked, "Tell me, why did you come to see me today?"
Han Du took out the gift list, held it in both hands, and said: "The Marquis can help the Han family out of prison, and he will not hesitate to help the Han family. I have made a special trip to express my gratitude to the Marquis today. I don't mean to show respect at all.
I hope Lord Marquis will accept it."
Lan Yu raised her eyes, glanced at Han Du, stretched out her hand to take the gift list, and threw it on the table without even looking at it. She smiled coldly and said, "Ha! I thought this was the wife of Yongchang Houfu.
Xiao, I can’t get into your eyes, Mr. Han. Even if you can go to Xin Guogong’s mansion, you don’t want to come to my mansion. I didn’t expect that you still remember the kindness you owe me. Well, it’s rare! But it’s reasonable, I
After all, this is just a Hou Mansion, so naturally it is not as good as Xin Guo Gong's Mansion, so it makes sense for you to go to Xin Guo Gong's Mansion first."
Hearing Lan Yu's words to block him, Han Du's face stiffened. Strictly speaking, this was really Han Du's fault. Faced with Lan Yu's life-saving grace, it would be fine if he didn't come to thank him quickly and run away first.
Lan Yu will naturally be unhappy when he goes to Duke Xin's mansion.
However, Han Du couldn't help himself at that time. He quickly explained with a smile: "Please forgive me, Lord Marquis. It was not Xiaguan who wanted to go on his own. It was Duke Xin who insisted on dragging Xiaguan there."
Lan Yu listened without comment and asked coldly: "Oh? So, it's my fault that I didn't come to invite you in person?
The words are very serious.
Han Du quickly bowed and said with a smile: "How dare you lower your rank?"
He continued to explain: "The official went to Xin Guo Gong's Mansion, but it was because Xin Guo Gong wanted to eat something and he was roped in as a cook." When Han Du went to Xin Guo Gong's Mansion, he was roped in by Tang He to be a cook.
Yes, it's not a visit. Logically speaking, it would be enough for Han Du to explain it to Lan Yu. There is no need to be picky about it.
But Lan Yu was not a person who could rely on reasoning to make sense. After hearing Han Du's explanation, she still looked at Han Du with a cold expression.
This means deliberately looking for trouble.
Han Du came today with the purpose of thanking Lan Yu. Naturally, he hoped that "he would give a gift to express his gratitude, and Lan Yu would accept it calmly. In this way, he could repay the favor he owed, and neither of them would owe anything."
From now on, everything will be fine and irrelevant." This is the best.
Therefore, Han Du has always kept his posture very low.
But if Lan Yu insists on being messy, Han Du will let him know.
In this world, the debtor is the uncle, and the creditor is the grandson!
So what if Lan Yu is the Marquis of Yongchang? If he offends himself, he won't return the favor if he doesn't.
Seeing that Han Du's face turned cold, Lan Yu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly said with a smile: "What? I can't stand it anymore? You have neglected me first, why don't you allow me to say a few words to you?"
Han Du didn't want to get entangled with Lan Yu anymore, so he simply showed his cards and said calmly: "Master Hou, tell me, how can I repay your favor? As long as Master Hou says it, I will definitely do it.
"
Lan Yu was even more surprised now. She looked at Han Du in surprise and asked, "No matter what I say, you can do it?"
If you want to live forever, of course I can't do it!
Han Du suddenly thought of this and changed his words: "No matter what the Marquis requires, I will do my best to do it."
"What a shame!" Lan Yu sneered and said casually, "Is it true that I want you to hand over the coal mine, and you can do it?"
When Han Du bought the barren mountain and turned it into a coal mine, the entire capital was filled with uproar, and Lan Yu had also heard about it.
But only the three of them knew about the fact that Han Du distributed the coal mine to Lao Zhu and Zhu Biao. Until now, everyone thinks that the coal mine is Han Du's industry.
Facing the blue jade lion's open mouth, Han Du took a deep breath.
It's better to be famous than to meet!
Han Du had heard that Lan Yu was arrogant in the past, but he never thought that he would be so arrogant that he would open his mouth and swallow the lifeblood of others.
In this regard, Han Du did not hesitate and nodded in agreement, "No problem, Lord Marquis will give me two days' time, and the title deed of the coal mine will be handed over with both hands."
After saying that, Han Du was about to turn around and leave.
As the saying goes, it’s hard to repay a favor! But in fact, it’s easy to repay a favor. Isn’t it just a matter of price?
In Han Du's view, as long as the problem can be solved with money, it is not a problem. It is already worth it to be able to use a coal mine to completely separate the relationship with the sapphire.
Although Han Du only has 10% of the coal mining stocks in his hands now, Han Du believes that if he goes to Lao Zhu and Zhu Biao to ask for them, they will give him the stocks.
After all, Han Du's production of treasure banknotes completely proved his worth in Lao Zhu's heart. With Lao Zhu's imperial ambition, he was still willing to give up a coal mine.
As for whether Lan Yu will be hated by Lao Zhu and Zhu Zhijie because of this, that is none of Han Du's business.
Anyway, Han Du has returned Lan Yu's life-saving grace. As for whether Lan Yu will live or die in the future, it is none of his business!
"stop!"
Unfortunately, Han Du was stopped by Lan Yu just as he turned around.
Han Du turned around, perhaps because he was about to repay Lan Yu's kindness, and felt a sense of relief all over his body. Not only did he not have any resentment that his property was about to be taken away, but he was smiling.
He replied: "I wonder if the Marquis has any other instructions?"
Even Lan Yu, who had always paid no attention to anyone except the emperor and the prince, was secretly surprised when he saw Han Du's expression. There was a hint of fun in his eyes.
"You agreed so simply, I suddenly felt that I was at a bit of a disadvantage."
Facing Lan Yu's unreasonable request, Han Du didn't feel the slightest bit uncomfortable.
Since you, Lan Yu, feel that you are at a loss, then increase the price yourself until you feel that you are no longer at a loss.
Han Du shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "If the Marquis feels that he is at a disadvantage, then I still have a briquette workshop in my hands. Although the scale is not large now, there will be a piece of land for expansion soon. After the expansion, it will be
The annual profit should be tens of thousands of dollars. If the Marquis can wait for a while, how about giving it to the Marquis after the extension of Xiaguan is completed?"
