”It's…1,000 liang,” The shopkeeper”

shi+ Chanli sed back his third , the Third Prince said, ”Bring the contract” Looking at his expression, he seemed to have come prepared

The shopkeeper iovernan to write the contractWhen it came to write the price of the deal, the Third Prince se of youI'll give you two-tenths of the silver because I think the owner probably doesn't want to sellConsider the two-tenths a co today, he naturally showed a noble airThe shopkeeper was greatly surprised, but he didn't dare co the contract, both sides put their fingerprints to it and agreed to deliver the goods and settle the bill toroup of people out of the restaurant, the shopkeeper let out a breathHe wiped at the cold sweat on his forehead with some fear and walked into a quiet room on the third floor after he head steadied his spiritHe then handed the contract to a young ht and honorableHis eyes ar fa Tower beside the West Lake, Ming Lanshi+

He received the contract and scanned it, hatred and disappointh his eyes before he turned his hand around and slapped himWith a clap, the shopkeeper covered his face with his hand and looked fearfully at the young

”Useless bastard!” Ming Lanshi+'s heart was filled with anger, although his face stayed calive away silver!”

He was here by a happy coincidence todayAfter the fa that the shopkeeper said that so the descriptions of their appearance and clothing, this heir to the Ming fasAfterward, a busboy overheard the name Fan SizheHe immediately confirmed their identitiesHe reacted quickly and prepared to offer Zhuyuan Guan with both hands

Unexpectedly, the other party didn't take any advantages16,000 liang of silver was not a se, it was actually quite a bit higher than the market valueHow could this su shi+lan had wanted to take advantage of the fact that the Third Prince did not yet knoho the oas to first give away the building, even if it was at a low price

His main purpose was, of course, to curry favor with the other partyIf the other party didn't acknowledge this favor in the future…with this one contract sent to Jingdou, it would be evidence of Fan Xian and the Third Prince forcefully buying public propertyWhen the Eldest Princess wanted to make a case before the Emperor it, would be easy to find an excuse

Unexpectedly, that young Third Prince refused to take this advantageWere the rureedy and ruthless as they said

Ming shi+lan sank into deep thoughtHe once again realized that the people his family had to face this tiht deeply for a while before quietly ordering, ”Sir Fan's intentions are simpleWe wants to open a brothelSend the order down no one is allowed to sell girls to hih the price!”

The shopkeeper ave a pained s irls…there are many in this line of business in SuzhouThose people will for sure not want to offend Sir Fan”

”Do they have any good girls on their hands?” Ming shi+lan asked”The good girls are all in our hands…let theo buyHow can a few leftovers attract custoe left the Zhuyuan RestaurantThefamily had suffered such a lossThe e hands tos, at this moment he finally realized, and furrowed his brow to say, ”Your Highness, it seems like the other party knew of your identity”

A look of annoyance flashed across the Third Prince's face that was still childishly innocent”They're soht about it and couldn't resist opening his hness, the price they asked for earlier was 1,000 liang, why…”

”Why would I raise the price myself?” The Third Prince smiled coldly”Anyone who is unaccountably solicitous is hiding evil intentionsHaving guessedwith both hands, but what about the future? What they request will probably not be as si face close, of course we cannot turn out hands and strike, but we also do not have to put our face close to join theain my friendshi+p?”

shi+ Chanli shook his head”I wonder who the owner behind that restaurant is; they saw an opportunity very quickly”

The Third Prince replied, ”Who cares who the other party is? If they want e of thee of o out in the future don't rando trouble for Fan Xian”

shi+ Chanli felt incredible admiration in his heart for this little prince, he praised, ”Your Highness' words are si voice, the Third Prince cursed, ”Don't fawn on meI finally had the chance to dress as a coht the prince was so young, yet he wanted to buy the building from the first step inHoas this the attitude of someone anted to conceal their identity? He also considered how the prince could resist taking an advantage worth tens of thousands of liangIt seemed very different from the initial ruthless personality he dealt with at Baoyue BrothelInvoluntarily, suspicion flashed through his eyes

He didn't know if the Third Prince had seen his expression, so he continued to speak, ”Fan Xian once said, if I take advantage of the people in this world, the people will eventually take advantage of the court, and if I let people take advantage of the court, then I aives out silver for other people to spend”

shi+ Chanli was silentHe was secretly worried for his teacherAs a prince, to have this kind of belief indicated that the interests of the court would be the prince's own interests in the futureWhat did this represent?

The Crown Prince was still in place

Not noticing shi+ Chanli's internal alarm, the Third Prince sentle it, but the wealth of a ruler is stored under heavenWhat need is there to obtain it?”

shi+ Chanli sed back his fourth mouthful of blood from an internal injuryHis eyes were fixed on the constantly fluttering bannersHe forcefully repressed the faint fear in his heart, pretending he had never heard these words

”Doing business can be a hobby” The Third Prince chuckled”Old shi+, your boldness is much less than that ofbusiness”

shi+ Chanlithe daave a pained sht”

The Third Prince called for the carriage to stop”We've arrived at the o back to the manor first”

A sinister smile rose on the child's faceWho knehat he was pleased about?

Watching the carriage drive away, shi+ Chanli quietly let out a breathHe called for the two guards with him to wait outside while he tidied his clothes and walked into a branch of Taiping h the doorway of the new money house was desolate, it exuded an air of new nobilityThat brand new green banner seenorance
