After lunch, Mu Yan went to the office in the mansion to handle matters.
Just as he was about to leave the hospital, Qiu Shuang came over and reported: "Your Majesty, Madam, the Chu Dong family has ordered someone to send a cart of stones over. I specifically stated that it is for Madam to enjoy."
Mu Yan raised his eyebrows and turned to look at Huo Xi, "I'm afraid Madam will make a lot of money this time."
"You also know."
"This was delivered after one night. I'm afraid it was carefully selected, but it still can't be cut?"
"Then wouldn't it be bad for me to accept them? If others know about it, shouldn't they say you are bullying others behind their backs?"
Mu Yanhun didn't care: "This cart of stones is said to be compensation, but why was it given specifically? If Chu Zuiliang, the father, doesn't know the inside at this time, I can only say that he doesn't deserve to stay in the jade world anymore.
Go down. His youngest son and Mu Zhan want to trick me. If he wants to keep his family’s position in the jade world, he can’t pretend to know everything.”
Mu Yan sarcastically said. Even if he chooses to side with Mu Zhan, his heir apparent is still in Kunming City at this time. How dare the Chu family openly go against him?
"In addition to sending a cart of stones, what else did you send?"
"Hui Shizi, I also sent you this box." Qiu Shuang hurriedly handed over the box.
Mu Yan and Huo Xi took it and opened it, "Hey, the banknotes." They counted the banknotes inside and found that the banknotes inside were exactly what they paid for the big stone.
With a snap, Mu Yan closed the box.
He handed it to Qiu Shuang and said, "Send it back to the person who came. Just say that my husband and I accepted the cart of stones and treated it as a plaything for my wife. Now, please return it to Chu Dong's family."
Qiu Shuang responded and left.
Huo Xi looked at him and said, "You didn't accept the banknotes, but instead collected a load of stones. Wouldn't it be good for others to find out?"
"It's just a cart of stones, not a cart of jade. Who knows whether it will break down or rise? Besides, everyone knows that Chu Yi has a good relationship with Mu Zhan. Mu Zhan has a long history of prospering 20% of the stocks. Long-lasting wars
He is doing things outside in the name of Mu Mansion, and his business has been going smoothly these years, who else in Jade Street doesn't know about it?"
I'm afraid everyone is watching the excitement of his heir apparent.
Two hundred and fifty-five thousand taels of silver were gone without even a drop of water. They were all looking at his jokes.
"How about we transport the stone back and solve it ourselves? We don't have to announce it to others whether it will increase or collapse. Even if it collapses in the end, can you still gain sympathy from everyone?"
"How have I ever cared about everyone's gaze?" Mu Yan disagreed.
Huo Xi felt a little sorry for him, "Didn't you just say that we are a little helpless? Isn't it a good idea to take the opportunity to win over a group of people while we are still in Yunnan?"
Mu Yan was silent and shook his head.
"In some things, showing weakness will make others think that I am weak and cannot be supported. We can only show our strength to the outside world. We are strong enough to make our opponents fearful and afraid when they hear our reputation. Only in this way can we suppress some
Xiaoxiao. From now on, we can control the situation even if we are not in Yunnan. Otherwise, I am afraid that we will be beyond our reach."
Huo Xi looked at him quietly.
Mu Yan smiled at her, "Don't worry about your husband. Now that I have you and Qi'er, I have to think more."
"Well, don't be too tired. We have money. At worst, we can go boating in the vast mist, stay away from the troubled world, and be happy and free."
"Yes, I have forgotten that my Xi'er has such a large fleet and a large ship for long voyages."
The couple looked at each other, their eyes moving, tender and affectionate.
In the backyard of Jiu Shengxing, Mu Zhan, led by Chu Yi, walked to the big stone bought by Mu Yan to look at it.
At this time, the stone was still placed in Jiu Shengxing's backyard and had not been moved or fenced. Mu Yan only sent people to guard it and did not do anything to it. In the past two days, people who got the news came in droves.
, all came to see the chopped aniseed that the prince and his wife spent a lot of money to buy.
At this time, there were people watching one after another, but when the eldest son of the Mu family and the young master of Jiu Shengxing came, everyone still made way for them.
Mu Zhan looked carefully at the several small windows with openings. Although the openings were shallow, the combined area was not small. The few small windows had almost peeled off a layer of the thick shell of the stone.
There is no green at all, just white flowers.
"There's not even a bit of white mist here. I'm afraid it will be the same again if I cut it again." The people watching shook their heads and sighed.
"No, it's such a shame to have such a big piece of material."
"It's more than two hundred thousand taels. Tsk, tsk, tsk!"
Thanks to the prince, if this ordinary person had spent so much money to cut him off, he would still be lying in bed spewing old blood.
Mu Zhan'er listened to everyone's discussion, checked a few small windows, looked at Chu Yi, and retreated.
"Is this really rubbish? Are you sure?"
Uh... With such a large piece of material, no one can guarantee what will happen if the heart of the stone is not cut.
Chu Yi gritted his teeth and replied: "Usually, the aniseed ingredients delivered from Huangbachangkou can't even be rubbed on several sides without showing any signs of performance. I asked someone to take a look at it. I'm afraid that if I rub it one more layer, it will still be like this.
White flowers.”
Mu Zhan was very satisfied after hearing this.
When Mu Yan came back, he hindered him in so many things. After the chaos was quelled, all the generals in the army looked up to him. Today, when the council was discussing the matter, all the civil officials were convinced of him. If this continues, he, the chief of the Mu family, will
Young Master, what status will you have in the future?
Even if Mu Yan were to return to Beijing, I'm afraid everyone would only remember him as the prince and regret that he was not in charge of affairs in Yunnan.
"Your family sent a cart of stones to Zhang this morning?"
Chu Yi nodded: "Yes, they are all carefully selected. Some are big and some are small. The chance of getting green is high."
Mu Zhan frowned.
Chu Yi hurriedly said: "Even if it's all cut and raised, it's still far less than the aniseed in the backyard. And I asked them to deliver it in a big way, and many people know about it and see it."
Chu Yi subconsciously told Mu Zhanyin about sending the banknote.
His father and eldest brother scolded him, and he felt that what his father and eldest brother said was reasonable. Although the prince would not stay in Yunnan for a long time, his status was such that his family did not have to go there just to hug Mu Zhan.
Offend the prince.
Mu Zhan nodded with satisfaction after listening to Chu Yi's words.
The little-known heir apparent of the Mu family spent so much money gambling on stones as soon as he returned to Yunnan. He played as much as he could, but he couldn't afford it. If he lost the gambling, he asked the store to compensate him.
What would the people think of him as the crown prince after hearing this? Who among the merchants in Yunnan would dare to do his business?
After Mu Yan went out to attend the meeting, Huo Xi originally wanted to check out her workshops. But after seeing the cart of stones delivered, she changed her mind.
After changing and washing, he left the house with a group of servants to escort him, along with the cart of intact stones.
Opposite Jiu Shengxing and several doors across from his house is the Wanlong Jade Shop.
The boss is so generous that I don’t even know where to put my hands and feet.
Who will tell him what's going on? The prince's wife sent a cart of stones and wanted to break them in his shop!
"Madam, this... my shop is small. Although there is a stone dissecting machine, but..."
His family has no power and power, unlike Jiu Shengxing, who has people behind him, has his own mine, complete equipment and manpower. His family is just a jade shop. Not only is it small, but the stones are also bought from others.
of.
Why did the Crown Prince choose to analyze the stone at his home?
Moreover, Jiu Shengxing paid for this load of stone. Wouldn't it be better to send it to Jiu Shengxing to be unpacked?
