"Two hundred thousand taels, your appetite is too much!"
Master Li said an amount that made Teng Qingshan suffocate in the dark, two hundred thousand taels of silver, even the Teng family could not possibly come up with such an amount.
"No, no, no, two hundred thousand taels is too much, and I'm not used to using banknotes."
Gu Sheng smiled and said: "What I want to express is actually twenty taels, twenty taels of purple gold will do!"
Purple gold, Jiuding is a unique mineral in Kyushu. The most powerful Emperor Qinling used it to forge the magic weapon 'Heavenly Sword'. In Kyushu, purple gold symbolizes status and respect. Some wealthy businessmen, or the heads of various sects and other figures like to use purple gold.
This kind of currency equivalent is easy to carry and has a large face value.
One tael of purple gold is equivalent to one hundred taels of gold, ten thousand taels of snowflake silver, and ten taels of purple gold is equivalent to one thousand taels of gold, and one hundred thousand taels of snowflake silver. Although what Gu Sheng said is the same value as what Mr. Li mentioned
, but the two are by no means the same.
Two hundred thousand taels of silver, even if it is all banknotes, is a big package that is very eye-catching. In addition, there is a one percent handling fee when you pick up the silver notes. For two hundred thousand taels of silver, you have to pay a handling fee of two thousand taels.
.
Moreover, the withdrawal of banknotes can be checked. Gusheng will not leave a trap for himself. It is better to pay in cash.
But purple gold is different. The density of purple gold is higher than that of gold. Twenty taels of purple gold is not very large, so it is very easy to take it away.
"Twenty taels of purple gold!"
Mr. Li frowned with the word "Sichuan" between his brows. Two hundred thousand taels of silver was not difficult for him, a big salt merchant, and it would have some impact on the short-term business turnover, but for the sake of his daughter, he was still willing. But the second
Twelve taels of purple gold was really a difficult thing for him.
As a salt merchant, his main industry is naturally the salt industry. The largest consumers of salt are naturally the people at the bottom of society, so most of their income is copper coins and silver. There is very little gold in the treasury, let alone
The more precious purple gold.
Although Yicheng is one of the nine big cities in Jiangning, its status in Jiangning County is actually not high. There are not many real big shots. Zijin has no circulation market here. As far as Mr. Li knows, Yicheng is just like Wanxiang.
There is a lot of purple gold in the building, but the exchange price is just...
Gu Sheng grabbed a plate of snacks on the table and ate it. He smelled the tea next to him and felt disgusted. "Butler Li, if you don't mind giving me a cup of snow clam soup instead!" Gu Sheng said with a smile to the butler beside him.
.
Li's tea may be good in this era, but it's a pity that Gu Sheng lost interest after smelling it. It is not helpful to the body. Bad review!
As for the snow clam soup, a certain little girl had just been showing off to me her fine clothes and food, and she meant to accept me as her younger brother. Now that I have taken the initiative, I can also have a taste of the treatment of a big shot.
Butler Li had a look of embarrassment on his face. When he saw Master Li frowning and nodding, he stepped back and made arrangements.
The servants of the Li family moved very quickly, and soon a cup of warm snow clam soup was delivered to Gu Sheng. Judging from their movements, they seemed to be very skilled. It can be imagined that they were often manipulated like this by someone during this period.
"Suck!"
Gu Sheng picked up the porcelain cup and took a big bite. The soup went into his throat, and a wave of heat filled his body. He felt that his internal energy had improved slightly. No wonder that little girl had a cup every day.
However, without learning Neijiaquan, a large part of the medicinal power cannot be fully absorbed. For most warriors, it is useless to drink more. One cup a day is the limit.
"Gululu!"
Gu Sheng's stomach made a sound, and the effect of the medicinal soup was maximized under the influence of Neijiaquan.
"Ah~"
He put down the porcelain cup and took a long breath, then smiled at Butler Li and said, "Well, you don't mind having another cup!"
Butler Li glanced at Mr. Li, and then went down.
"Asshole, bastard, this guy is too much."
On the top of the study room, Chu Xin (Li Qingyu), who couldn't speak or move, was about to explode when she saw this scene. This guy not only tied herself up, but also ate and used his own. It was really too much...
"Ah! It feels much more comfortable!"
After taking three cups in a row, Gu Sheng patted his round belly and smiled at Master Li, who was still meditating: "How is it! Master Li,!"
Mr. Li looked up helplessly and said, "I can't satisfy all of your requests. I can't come up with twenty taels of purple gold at once."
"Okay! I knew it."
Gu Sheng said: "Let's do this! How much purple gold can you take out in ten days without losing your property?"
Mr. Li glanced at Gu Sheng in surprise, then thought about it carefully for a while and then said: "The purple gold I collected from various places is not that much. I can get it back in ten days, about ten taels!"
Gu Sheng opened his mouth and smiled and said: "Ten taels is ten taels. For the rest, I want old medicine from the mountains, natural materials and earthly treasures. You should have a lot of these things! I think there should be many in the Li Mansion.
If it’s not enough, you can take out some first!”
"Can!"
Mr. Li pondered for a moment and then nodded and ordered to Butler Li: "Li Fu, go to the medicine store to get..."
"nice one!"
Gu Sheng looked at the five jade boxes in front of him and thought that he had come to the right place. The forearm-thick golden ginseng, the white jade-like Ganoderma lucidum... These treasures have long been extinct in the world, and they don't even exist in the general martial arts world.
There are so many more to be found in the world of Jiudingji, which is full of spiritual energy.
"Five jade boxes, count it as five taels!"
Gu Sheng stretched out a palm, and then used a piece of cloth to pack the five jade boxes. With these, he was confident that he would be able to push the realm of tiger-shaped boxing to a very high level in a short period of time.
, with the inner strength secrets, the second-rate realm is just around the corner.
"Can!"
Mr. Li nodded and collected five jade boxes of medicinal materials. It was not difficult for him. He had properties in various places. Ten days would be enough to prepare them.
"Master Li, don't mind sending me away!"
Gu Sheng carried the package behind his back, smiled at Mr. Li, then glanced around calmly, and gave Teng Qingshan a look in the dark.
"please!"
Mr. Li was also a man who had seen strong winds and waves, and he stood up very simply.
Gu Sheng and Mr. Li walked out of the room and walked all the way to the outside of the Li Mansion. More than a hundred guards were accompanying them. After a while, the small courtyard was empty. No one noticed that a black shadow moved very quickly after most people left.
It sprang out at a very fast speed and quickly disappeared in the opposite direction to the mansion gate.
"Master Li, just send it here."
Outside the courtyard of the Li Mansion, Gu Sheng cupped his hands and clasped his fists towards Mr. Li.
Mr. Li did not return the gift, but warned in a deep voice: "I hope that in ten days I will see a daughter who is intact and unharmed. Let your people take care of the guy below. If it is Qingyu..."
Gu Sheng smiled and said: "Don't worry, although Ling Qianjin is naturally beautiful, she is still a bit young. I am not interested in her. No more gossip, let's say goodbye!"
As he spoke, Gu Sheng jumped onto the eaves of a roof. After a cloud of green mist, the figure had disappeared.
"Master! I didn't catch you!"
A quarter of an hour later, two men dressed as guards came to Master Li.
"That's all!"
Mr. Li let out a long sigh, turned around and walked into the door of the mansion, but he seemed to be a little shorter.
