Live as the emperor

Chapter 290

After hearing the compliments from these officials, Wu Ciyou suddenly became proud, 5000 taels of gold?Haha, I already have the tea in my hand. If I don’t give it to you, what can you do to me?Can you still rush into Wuhou Mansion?
Wu Ciyou felt that this was just a few words of nonsense, and he didn't need to spend the 5000 taels of gold at all. When the prince left, who would care about that Ah Fu?

Besides, Marquis Wu, he was not sure what Chen Guang was going to do, but after hearing what Wu Ciyou said, he immediately felt that he had grasped the crux of the problem.

It turned out that the prince felt that his tea was sold too cheaply.

Let me tell you earlier, raise the price, 5000 taels of gold, that's fine.

Although it's a little heartache, it's just a heartache. Grit your teeth and let's go.

Alas, the tea that His Royal Highness drinks is only given five taels of gold. No wonder the prince feels shameless. If I were to be replaced, I would also feel shameless. That would be too cheap.

This is what Wuhou thought in his heart.

At the same time, he breathed a long sigh of relief. He thought something big had happened, but it turned out to be this, wasn't it money?Problems that can be solved with money are not problems.

"It turned out to be this matter, His Royal Highness, although my grandson did something wrong, but for the sake of his filial piety, it is better to give the old minister some face. Wait until this afternoon, I will let my grandson How about sending 5000 taels of gold to that man's house?"

When Chen Guang heard it, he suddenly felt that there were ten thousand muddy horses galloping past in his heart. These are the old fox and the little fox. Everyone changed the topic by saying a word. How could this murderer become filial piety? commendable?Sure enough, the mouth of an official.

But is Chen Guanghui a person who can be fooled so easily?He knew the ins and outs of the facts clearly.Therefore, regarding the rhetoric of the grandfather and grandson, his heart did not waver, and he even wanted to laugh a little bit.

Chen Guang originally wanted to expose Wu Ciyou's lies on the spot, but when he was about to speak, a flash of inspiration suddenly came to his mind, and he thought of a more interesting idea.

"You mean, because you didn't bring that much money at the time, you only gave him five taels of gold as a deposit, instead of just buying and selling five taels of gold?"

Wu Ciyou has been paying attention to the change of Chen Guang's expression with trepidation, he is very afraid that his lie will be exposed on the spot.Chen Guang's question reassured him, and he even felt a little proud in his heart, haha, the little prince is the little prince, and he was so easily fooled.

"That's right, it's not that my Wuhou Mansion can't afford the money, why would I forcefully buy and sell it? If the news gets out, wouldn't it be a disgrace to our Wuhou Mansion?"

Wu Ciyou said solemnly, with that serious expression, he almost believed it himself.

Marquis Wu echoed: "Yes, my Marquis Wu's Mansion will not even give up face for a mere few thousand taels of silver. I will give you gold in a few days. It can be counted as silver."

Generally speaking, although gold and silver are both currencies, silver is still the majority in daily transactions, and in many places, only silver is used instead of gold.In fact, gold still belongs to the value expression more often than the means of payment.

That's why Wuhou proposed to convert it into silver, after all, the amount is quite large.

Chen Guang believed Wu Ciyou's words, and then asked: "5000 taels of gold, that's not a small amount, are you sure you will personally send the money to Ah Fu?"

He deliberately emphasized the word "in person", but no one heard it.

5000 taels of gold is not a small amount. In fact, Wu Ciyou also felt a little distressed. He would have just said 1000 taels. After all, 1000 taels of gold is a lot.

But what he said was like water poured out, so how could he go back on his word?
So he thought that after dealing with the prince, he would drag this matter over directly. Anyway, Ah Fu would not come to him to ask for money.

But now Chen Guang said that he would send the money to Ah Fu himself... Does this mean that he needs to supervise on site?

So, the money still has to come out?

Wu Ciyou couldn't help looking at Marquis Wu.

Wu Hou gave him a look of affirmation, which meant - give it, give it, it's only 5000 taels of silver, just think of it as a way to avoid disaster.

Wu Ciyou understood what Marquis Wu meant, so he gritted his teeth and said, "I will definitely hand over the 5000 taels of gold to Ah Fu."

An imperceptible smile appeared on Chen Guang's face, and he said, "Will you really send it there in person?"

Wu Ciyou couldn't help frowning, the prince is too aggressive, isn't he?
However, the matter has reached this point, and there is no way out, so Wu Ciyou said: "Really, I must deliver it personally."

Chen Guang laughed loudly, and said loudly to everyone: "Okay, you all heard what he said, he said that he would definitely send the money to Ah Fu himself. That is to say, no matter where Ah Fu is Anywhere, he will send money there. Everyone here, did you hear that?"

No one spoke until Marquis Wu said: "I can testify that it is indeed the case." After that, everyone chattered as if they were awakened from sleep.

"Marquis Wu is also a person of status. Since the young master has said that he will deliver it in person, he will definitely not renege on his promise and become fat."

"Yes, I also believe that Hou Ye is a man, and he will definitely send the money in person."

"Since the young master has already said so, a man will do what he promises."

Everyone expressed their belief that Wu Ciyou would do what he said.

Marquis Wu beside Chen Guang, seeing Chen Guang's expression and hearing his words, always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong for a while, and in the end he could only To be able to comfort myself must have been hallucinating because of feeling sorry for the 5000 taels of gold.

However, if 5000 taels of gold can send the prince away, and get the box of tea by the way, he feels that this deal is not bad at all.

The only thing he is praying for now is that His Highness the Crown Prince will leave quickly, so that he can live his birthday with peace of mind.

It's a pity that his birthday was destined to be uncomfortable, and no one noticed that Chen Guang dug a big hole for Wu Ciyou to jump into.

Chen Guang said slowly: "Okay, since you said that you would personally deliver 5000 taels of gold to Ah Fu, then you can go to hell. Ah Fu is already dead, and you beat him to death. Give him the money, I'm afraid you can only go to hell, maybe you can catch up with him if you move faster."
