On the afternoon of the second day, the envoys from the Kingdom of Jin finally entered the city, and the envoys sent this time were three old faces, namely Li Jing, Wang Duci, and He Shiliebohe. This time they came, but
It has received great attention from the people in the stables. There are huge crowds of people standing on both sides of the Royal Street, which has never happened before. All this is because the early publicity was very good, and almost every detail was described in detail.
After finishing the complicated etiquette, it was already evening, so they went directly to Guangxiangguo Temple to rest. They would not enter the palace tomorrow, but would visit the commercial enterprises in Bianjing. Regarding this, both parties agreed on the same idea.
After all, Wanyan Aguda had never been to Bianjing, and he did not dare to believe Li Qi's words, so he ordered He Shi Liebohe and the others to ask for certification first, and then go to negotiate.
In fact, Li Qi planned to take them there even if they didn't ask for it.
After dinner, Li Qi also returned to Qin Mansion early to recharge his batteries.
When she came to the front hall, she saw Mrs. Qin still sitting under the lamp with the same book as before, reading with gusto. Seeing that Li Qi was back, she put down the book and asked with a hint of curiosity: "Why are you back?"
Li Qi took a sip of tea, sat opposite Mrs. Qin, and said truthfully: "Have you forgotten, madam? I have to take the envoy of the Kingdom of Jin to the city tomorrow."
Dangling? Mrs. Qin rolled her eyes at him and said, "Tomorrow you---."
Li Qi was the first to say: "Madam, their coming this time is a great occasion. How can I sincerely deal with them? Don't worry."
Mrs. Qin nodded slightly and said, "It's good that you know."
Li Qi sighed: "Madam, sometimes I really think that your becoming a monk would be a great good thing for the cause of Buddhism."
Now Mrs. Qin felt a headache when she heard the word "monk". She frowned slightly and said, "How do you say this?"
Li Qi smiled and said: "With Madam's patience, if I ask you to promote Buddhism, I believe that the people of the Song Dynasty will be willing to convert to Buddhism."
Mrs. Qin snorted: "Don't talk nonsense. I have advised you so many times, but how have you ever listened to me?"
Li Qi spread his hands and said, "That's because, madam, you haven't become a monk yet."
Mrs. Qin said angrily: "Can you not propose leaving home?"
Li Qi shrugged and said, "I didn't mention it. What I just said was getting married!"
Mrs. Qin was immediately speechless.
At this moment, Aunt Chen suddenly walked in and said: "Sir, madam, there is someone outside who wants to see you."
Li Qi frowned and said, "Who?"
"He said he was from the Kingdom of Jin."
Li Qi chuckled: "Madam, the money sender is here."
Mrs. Qin was startled and said cautiously: "Don't do whatever you want!"
Sweating! She doesn't think I'm corrupt. Li Qi said depressedly: "If Madam is worried, you can go back and eavesdrop."
Mrs. Qin took a breath and said, "I'm not as shameless as you." She stood up and said, "I'm going back to the house first."
After saying that, she turned around and went out.
Li Qi made a face at Mrs. Qin's back, then stood up and walked outside. After all, she was here to give money, so she had to go out to greet her.
When he came to the door, he saw Heshi Liebohe leading a group of servants standing in front of the door.
"Hey, it's Mr. He Shilie. Please forgive me for keeping Mr. He Shilie waiting for so long. Please forgive me." Li Qi pretended to be surprised, cupped his hands and said with a smile.
Heshi Liebohe returned the greeting with cupped hands: "Where. Where, Doctor Li is too polite. I haven't seen you for a few days. I hope you are well."
"It's okay, it's okay." Li Qi chuckled, stretched out his hand and said, "Mr. He Shilie, please come in quickly."
"please."
Heshi Liebohe stretched out his hand and said to the servants: "Carry it in."
I saw the servants lifting several mahogany boxes.
Li Qi hurriedly said: "Oh, Mr. He Shilie is too polite. Why do you bring any gifts when you come to my place?"
Heshi Liebohe had just entered the door. When he heard this, he almost tripped over the threshold. He looked at Li Qi with a strange expression and said with a bitter smile: "Doctor Li is joking, if I can afford such a big gift, then
alright."
Li Qi snorted and said, "Then what is this?"
Heshi Liebohe stretched out his hand and said, "Let's go in and talk."
"Okay, okay."
The two came to the front hall, and when the servants put down the mahogany boxes, He Shiliebohe waved his hand and said, "Open them all."
Snap, snap, snap, snap.
After five consecutive sounds, thousands of golden lights shot out.
Sure enough, he was a robber, and he was so bold when he made a move. Li Qi covered his eyes with his hands in praise, and said in horror: "Wow, wow, wow! What is this? It's so dazzling, so dazzling."
He Shiliebo chuckled and said, "Doctor Li is just laughing. To Dr. Li, a small amount of money is nothing more than a drop in the bucket."
"What are you talking about, Mr. He Shilie? How can I do that?"
Li Qi smiled coquettishly, and took a closer look. He saw five boxes of golden ingots, which were definitely weapons that could be used to tempt criminals.
"Doctor Li is being humble." He Shilie laughed loudly, his voice full of satisfaction, and said: "There is a total of one thousand taels of gold here, which is regarded as the first payment for drinks."
I love gold so much. Li Qi secretly smiled in his heart, but said: "Mr. He Shilie is too unconventional, isn't he? I planned to send the wine first, but I never thought that Mr. He Shilie would give the money first."
I’m really sorry that Li is here.”
"It's all the same, it's all the same."
Heshi Liebohe waved his hand and said: "That's what I originally planned, but His Majesty happened to send me here again, so I brought the money along the way. Doctor Li, please order some."
Of course I will order it, who knows what you are putting down there. Li Qi nodded, called Mrs. Chen in, and asked her to call Uncle Wu and call a few more accountants.
After giving the instructions, Li Qi extended his hand and said, "Mr. He Shilie, please take a seat quickly."
Heshi Liebohe didn't expect that Li Qi would directly ask someone to count in front of them, but he thought it should be done. He said "please" and the two of them sat down. The maid on the side came up to pour tea for them.
Heshi Liebohe said sternly: "Doctor Li, I'm ready to go to Beijing. I'm just waiting for your wine, so in addition to giving you money this time, I also hope that when I leave, you can
The wine is also ready, I'll take it back with you on the way."
Li Qi chuckled and said: "Mr. He Shilie is really speechless. In this way, I will save the freight. However, I just don't know how long Mr. He Shilie plans to stay this time."
"It shouldn't take more than ten days."
"So fast?"
Heshi Liebohe said with a smile: "My emperor is full of confidence in Dr. Li's economic reform and agrees very much with it. If tomorrow goes well, then everything will be fine. And the emperor also hopes that we can go back and resume our duties as soon as possible, so
We won’t stay long this time.”
In fact, both sides are tired. Too much time and energy have been spent on this negotiation. Wanyan Aguda has to deal with Beiliao, and it is not a problem for the army to always stay in Yanjing, and the Song Dynasty does not need it.
Said. Looking at Yan Jing, his mouth was almost watering, and Tong Guan was so anxious that his penis was about to grow.
"Yes! I also hope that this negotiation can go smoothly and nothing will go wrong again."
Li Qi sighed and said: "Mr. He Shilie, don't worry. I will definitely prepare Tianxia Wushuang within ten days."
"That's good, that's good."
Heshi Liebohe nodded and said: "However, apart from being unparalleled in the world, Doctor Li also forgot one thing."
Li Qi smiled and said: "How could I forget? I have also arranged the manpower. I will send ten people to go with you."
"Ten? Isn't that too few?"
Li Qi shook his head and said: "Nothing less, Mr. He Shilie, you are not short of people, what you are short of is talents. The people I sent this time are all the elites of our Zuixianju, and you will not let them go."
Do some odd jobs. I'm not bragging, Li Qi. With the abilities of these ten people, even if you give them three restaurants, let alone one restaurant, they will definitely help you take care of them properly, and there will be no trouble.
In half a year, there will be no restaurant in your country that can compete with your new restaurant."
Heshi Liebohe was overjoyed when he heard this and hurriedly said: "If this is the case, then there is nothing better."
Li Qi raised his hand and said: "That's not all. These ten people can not only manage the restaurant, but also cook roast duck and Hanbao. Mr. He Shilie is so generous and generous. I can't be too stingy. This time I will first
I’ll give you three months’ worth of ingredients and take them back. You’ll be able to see the effect in the first month and see if the people in your country are more fond of that. When the second month comes, you send someone to
Let’s discuss it in detail.”
He Shi Liebo laughed and said: "Okay. Dr. Li is really a happy person. Come and I will toast you a cup." After saying that, he picked up the tea and toasted to Li Qi.
The two drank it all in one go.
Li Qi suddenly frowned and said: "But---."
Heshi Liebohe's expression tightened and he said, "Nothing but what?"
Li Qidao: "However, these ten people are not very old. If they make some small mistakes when they first arrive in your country, please bear with me, Mr. He Shilie."
Heshi Liebohe said hurriedly: "Don't worry, I will treat them well and I will not let them be bullied."
"That's good, that's good." Li Qi nodded.
Heshi Liebohe said again: "Doctor Li, I have something else I want to discuss with you when I come here this time."
"Please say."
"It's like this. Some of the people accompanying us this time are my nobles from Dajin. They also want to do business with your Southern Dynasty merchants in our way of cooperation. Can you please introduce some of your Southern Dynasty merchants?
Let us know powerful businessmen."
The nobles of the Jin Kingdom have experienced hardships. Now that the overall situation has been decided, they can't wait to enjoy life.
Li Qi was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and said: "This is easy to talk about. Tomorrow I will take you to meet some very powerful business tycoons in our Song Dynasty. If you are interested, you can all sit together.
Let’s talk.”
Heshi Liebohe chuckled and said, "Then I will help you, Dr. Li."
"you are welcome."
After a while, Wu Furong arrived with several accountants. When they saw the gold, they almost stared out of their eyes. Li Qi briefly told Wu Furong and then asked them to count it here.
While they were counting, Heshi Liebohe hurriedly asked Li Qi for advice. The two of them asked and answered questions and had a great conversation.
After the counting was completed, it was already the second watch, and Heshi Liebohe also stood up and left.
After sending He Shi Liebo He away, Li Qi suddenly frowned, his face gradually became serious, and he murmured: "Wanyan Zongwang, is it you?"
