"I think the one who wants to take him down is you!" Both of White Eunuch's eyes suddenly widened as he extended his orchid shaped fingers and pointed at Chen Huanqi: "You actually dare to directly call out Prime Minister's name!"
"What?" White Eunuch took me? I'm a victim. Why would you want to take me down? Don't listen to Chang Sheng's nonsense, it was Chang Sheng who captured us. "
Chen Huanqi was stupefied when he heard White Eunuch's words, did he hear wrongly? Why did White Eunuch say they had to take him down? What was going on? Could it be that Chang Sheng and Chang Qianze were talking nonsense? They inverted black and white?
That must be it.
As Chen Huanqi was thinking, the next sentence that White Eunuch said directly shattered his hope.
"Chang Sheng did not say anything. Chen Huanqi, you are no longer a general. The Emperor already knew about this matter, but as a general, you were actually taken away by an eighteen or nineteen year old youth. This is simply disgraceful to our Daqi Dynasty, and the reason was actually because you did not repay your debts.
White Eunuch looked at Chen Huanqi coldly: "Alright, Chen Huanqi, today, I will be accompanying Sir Chang Sheng to another house to collect my debts, so stop wasting my time, and quickly follow me to your house to get your money."
Chen Huanqi was stunned, he never thought that the situation would actually turn out like this. After a long while, he finally reacted, he looked at White Eunuch with a wronged expression, and tried to curry favor with him: "Take the money? But my family doesn't have that much money. How can I take out 5 million silver in such a short time? White Eunuch, can you spare a few days, I … "
"No way!" White Eunuch waved his hand to interrupt Chen Huanqi. "The emperor has already given the order, we must pay him back today! This humble one can help you take it out. This humble one knows how much property Chen Huanqi has in the capital, and besides, don't you have a house? "
"House? "Industry?" After Chen Huanqi heard White Eunuch's words, his body softened and he almost fell to the ground. White Eunuch was simply too ruthless, he wanted him to sell the house and property to pay back the money.
The emperor had said that if he didn't return the money this time, it would be disrespecting the imperial edict, and the consequences would be ten thousand times worse than losing the capital!
At the side, Guo Feng heard the conversation between Chen Huanqi and White Eunuch, and his heart stirred. In order to return the money, Chen Huanqi and the others must sell their businesses, so in a short period of time, they might not even be able to find a suitable buyer.
Thinking about that, Guo Feng secretly transmitted to Chang Sheng: "Young Master, we are just taking advantage of this opportunity to earn more money, I'm afraid that Chen Huanqi and the rest are not able to take out that much cash to give Young Master, they are all selling their businesses, this way, we can pretend to be buyers and buy their businesses at a low price."
"En, good idea, but Guo Feng, they already know your appearance, and everyone knows that you are my man. If they want to earn another fortune, they will have to let others go."
"Young Master, Guo Feng understands, we can let the Misty Peak go."
No matter how much Chen Huanqi did not want to return the money, he could only accompany Chang Sheng, White Eunuch and the imperial guards to walk out of Chang Jia's house.
After leaving Chen Huanqi's house for a while, Chang Sheng suddenly shouted: "How boring, Chang Sheng is going to look for the pig leg to ask for money."
Chen Huanqi shouted as he turned around from the entrance of the Chen Huanqi's home and walked towards the County Prince Zhu's Palace. Chen Huanqi and the rest owed a lot of money and the people they owed were all from the County Prince Zhu.
Seeing that Chang Sheng had left, White Eunuch could only keep one imperial bodyguard, urging him to return the money, he quickly followed suit.
At the entrance of the County Prince Zhu Mansion.
County Prince Zhu looked at the man beside him, his fat face was filled with smiles: "Brother Liu, look and see if the price is given a little more. You know, that face of mine, that location is very good, and the area is also very big. "Let's add a little more. How about three million silver?"
County Prince Zhu tried his best to raise the price of the items he wanted to sell. Ever since he came back from the morning assembly, he immediately went back home and found a few merchants that he was familiar with, saying that he had properties to sell. However, all of the merchants were preparing to attend some sort of auction, and only the Boss Liu came.
"Three million silver is still too high, too high …" Boss Liu shook his head. Although he did not know why County Prince Zhu was in a hurry to sell his properties, it was still true that County Prince Zhu was anxious. If it was like this, he could completely lower the price, and with the appearance in front of him, normally the selling price would be more than four million silvers. However, County Prince Zhu was in a rush to sell, so he had to lower the price to around two million three hundred to four hundred thousand silvers.
"The price isn't high anymore. Old Liu, you know …"
As County Prince Zhu was speaking, a loud shout came from afar.
"Pig-head King, hurry up and call out the pig-hooves to return the money!"
Chang Sheng had dared to come all the way from Chen Huanqi's home, but before he even reached the Zhu Family's gate, he heard the voices of the merchant in front of him from afar.
He had even arranged for the Misty Castle to buy the businesses of the County Prince Zhu, but he couldn't let the County Prince Zhu sell them.
County Prince Zhu's face darkened when he heard this loud shout. This voice was obviously Chang Sheng's voice. This way, others would know that he was going to sell his business to return the money. That way, the price would be even lower!
County Prince Zhu secretly glanced at Boss Liu beside him.
Sure enough, Boss Liu's face changed.
Boss Liu looked at the few people walking over from afar, his face revealing a trace of doubt. County Prince Zhu owed money to others? So they were in a hurry to sell their businesses and pay back the money?
However, who was the person walking at the front? Why does he look like a fool?
Beside Boss Liu, a subordinate seemed to be able to see the doubt in his own boss's heart, and he whispered into Boss Liu's ears: "Boss, that person is Prime Minister Chang Qianze's son, Chang Sheng, he is a fool, but yesterday, Chang Sheng made a bet with County Prince Zhu's son, Zhu Ti, led by a few people. In the end, Zhu Ti and the others lost, and it was said that the amount of money was very large."
"Then, when Chang Sheng came to collect the debt yesterday, he was tricked away by County Prince Zhu. This little one heard early this morning that Chang Sheng had taken away two generals who owed him money, and now …"
The shop assistant spoke a few words, and Chang Sheng and a few others had already walked over, he immediately stopped talking.
Although the shop assistant did not finish his sentence, Boss Liu could still think of the following words. From the looks of it, Chang Sheng had walked in safely, and the matter of him taking the general obviously did not have any effect.
Chang Sheng brought so many people, what was he trying to do here? Was he here to collect his debt? If that was really the case, then he, the County Prince Zhu, was truly humiliated to be called over by a fool twice in a row to collect his debt!
Boss Liu thought for a while and stepped aside. At this time, Chang Sheng had already walked in front of him.
"Pig-head King, hurry up and get the boar to return the money. If you don't, Chang Sheng will beat you to death!"
"You …"
County Prince Zhu felt like his lungs were about to burst from anger. It was fine to be forced to pay by a fool, but he was actually threatened by a fool!
This was too embarrassing!
But it was shameful, angry, and he had to pay it back!
The County Prince Zhu cursed Chang Sheng to death in his heart, and a smile appeared on his face: Chang Sheng, Zhu Ti is not home, I will immediately change your money. Look at this mister beside me, we will settle the deal soon, I will give the money to you later.
With that, the County Prince Zhu quickly turned around and said to the Boss Liu: "Boss Liu, forget it, 2.2 million silver taels it is, 2.2 million gold taels it is, we are going to trade. Also, I have a few other properties, do you think we should take one?"
"Two million two hundred thousand?" Aiya, County Prince Zhu, I suddenly thought of the fact that I still have to spend money to buy things at the auction, I can't afford to spend that much money. Eight hundred thousand silver, I can only spend it to buy your face. "
This idiot, Chang Sheng's appearance was way too timely. From the looks of it, County Prince Zhu had to return the money as soon as possible. Since that was the case, he could completely push the price down!
"Boss Liu, you just said it was two million and two hundred thousand. How did it become eight hundred thousand in the blink of an eye?" This Boss Liu was too ruthless. He killed another 1,400,000 taels of silver and used 800,000 taels of silver to buy face that was worth at least 4 million taels of silver. Why didn't he go and snatch it? Even if they stole it, they wouldn't earn it so quickly!
"Hehe, County Prince Zhu, like I said, I suddenly thought of something and needed to spend some money." Boss Liu laughed: "County Prince Zhu, the auction in front of you is not small, everyone is going to auction things, if not for giving you face, I would have already gone to participate in the auction, I will go home to wait for you now, you have to make a decision quickly, if not I will also be participating in the auction, at that time, even if you want to sell, you will not be able to find anyone."
Boss Liu laughed loudly, but turned around and left. His words had already reminded County Prince Zhu that everyone was going to the auction, if he wanted to sell, he would have to sell the business.
