Chapter 464

Lin Chujiu was never afraid of shame or being instructed. She could do such a shameful thing as selling dowries without any cover up.

The people in King Xiao's residence were very efficient. Before the people who declared the imperial edict went out, they loaded Lin Chujiu's dowry on the cart and dragged it to the pawnshop.

When the pawnbroker saw the bodyguard of King Xiao's house coming, he almost peed and trembled. "How many elders are there? The shop is run by a small capital. The old and the young are not deceived. What can I do for them?"

Of course, all pawnbrokers have backstage. The shop that steward Cao is looking for is Zhang Jia of the central Empire, which is second only to the seven aristocratic families in the central empire.

Zhang Jia, whether in the central empire or Dongwen, has a face. But the strong dragon does not oppress the local leaders. This is Dongwen, Xiao TIANYAO's territory. No matter how crazy they are, they have to be more restrained.

"Small business?" Steward Cao glanced at the tall counter and the red coral on the table. He also glanced at the common people who were working in front of the counter. He sneered, "are you kidding me?"

"This..." the shopkeeper felt sweating, embarrassed.

Steward Cao didn't come to smash the court either. He took it when it was good. He pointed to the box behind him and said, "I'll be dead if I find a place to talk business." Those vulgar gold, their princess absolutely can't use.

"What, what? When, when? " The shopkeeper is stupid.

What's the wind direction? Is the prince of tangtangwenyipin poor enough to be an object? Or die? How much money is this?

"What? You're not allowed to pawn in a pawnshop? " Steward Cao asked lightly, but the shopkeeper didn't dare to take it seriously. He quickly shook his head: "how can it be? Please come inside, please come inside."

The shopkeeper turns around and leads steward Cao and his party to Yajian in the backyard. He gives the second child a wink and asks him to look for the steward.

He can't do it.

When steward Cao didn't see it, he went into the elegant room and urged the shopkeeper to count the jewels in the box. The shopkeeper wanted to delay, but steward Cao didn't give anyone a chance. He asked the bodyguard to open the jewels, and then added an inventory: "order these things. Our princess said that they would be 50000 Liang."

Steward Cao estimated that these jewels are worth 50000 Liang, but it's a joke to sell them in pawnshops.

"My Lord, these are less than 50000 Liang." The shopkeeper quickly scanned the list and looked at the things in the box. With his eyesight, he can be sure that all the things are good, but the workmanship is really disagreeable. All of them have to be processed before they can be sold for money.

"If you can't do it, you should do it. It's 200000 taels short of 50000 taels. I'll point to these things." Steward Cao took it for granted, but his heart was a little empty.

This is what the princess of their family said. Not to mention that these things are worth 50000 taels, even if they are only worth 10000 taels, they have to pay 50000 taels of silver. Otherwise, where will they go to collect 200000 taels?

Why not?

Are you kidding? Are the signboards of King Xiao's residence good-looking?

At this time, we should not bully others. When can we bully others?

When steward Cao heard Lin Chujiu's words, he thought it was true. But he was still a little embarrassed.

For so many years, the people of King Xiao's residence have always kept a low profile in the capital. They have never been so arrogant. The first time they have been so arrogant, it's really cool!

The shopkeeper immediately cried when he heard steward Cao's words: what's the matter with you less than 50000 liang?

"That's not how it's done, my Lord." The shopkeeper tried to reason with steward Cao, but steward Cao didn't pay attention at all. He only said, "if the emperor wants 200000 Liang, it's 50000 Liang short. If you delay the emperor's business, it's your fault."

When a big hat went down, the shopkeeper didn't know how to deal with it at all, so he had to nod his head and bow and say, "this matter, this matter, I have to ask for instructions."

"Go ahead." Steward Cao looked calm, as if he didn't know how shameless he was.

It's not surprising that steward Cao is so arrogant, but that this pawnshop is the same owner as the merchants who took the lead in bidding up the price of food this time, and behind them are the forces of the central empire.

In this case, the prince, King Wen and others appeared, but they were both the sons of the emperor. If we really wanted to pick them out, the emperor would be very angry.

As for other officials? It's not enough. Lin Chujiu thought it over and over again, and decided to let steward Cao pick it up. Behind it is the central empire that relies on.

Persimmon is very soft, but only when the strongest one is scared, others will be obedient. The best choice is the grain merchants with the background of the central empire.

When the shopkeeper went out, the steward just came over. When he heard what the shopkeeper said, the steward laughed: "what a prince Xiao's mansion. He has cheated us on the head of Xingsheng. I don't want to know who is behind our Xingsheng."

"Steward Zhang, what's the matter?" The shopkeeper asked carefully.

"Here, isn't it just fifty thousand taels? Send the beggars. " Zhang's steward said wildly.

As soon as the shopkeeper sees it, he knows that the silver has been given out. It's estimated that it will make king Xiao's house spit it out ten times.

They are not easy to bully in the central empire.

The shopkeeper was very happy when he thought about it. He went to fetch money for steward Cao. When he saw steward Cao again, he was arrogant. "Our steward said that King Xiao was bleeding and sweating in the front line, and we businessmen should not be too stingy. The 50000 Liang should be given to King Xiao by our Xingsheng number. Let's take all these things back."

"The people of King Xiao's residence never bully others, nor take a penny from the common people. To be something is to be something. If you don't accept these things, we don't want the silver note." Steward Cao was so awe inspiring that he was moved.

It's not a good feeling that you have to put up a show after bullying others.

When the shopkeeper heard this, he couldn't stop sneering. Just as he was about to make a sarcastic remark, he saw that the young man came in. He didn't know what to say in his ear. As soon as the shopkeeper's face was frozen, he looked at steward Cao thoughtfully. He didn't talk to steward Cao any more. He immediately asked someone to handle the pawn ticket for steward Cao.

"Ladies and gentlemen, if you want to go, you can't go." The shopkeeper's face was gloating. Steward Cao didn't have to think about it. Nine times out of ten, the fact that their princess refused to accept the imperial edict spread.

There's no way. Before their prince got married, they were always fighting in a high-profile way and acting in a low-key way. Outsiders in the house didn't know anything about it. But everything has changed since the prince married the princess

They are now acting in a more and more high-profile manner. They will make trouble all over the capital. We all know that it would be strange if the princess refused to accept the imperial edict.

Steward Cao held the two hundred thousand taels in his hand and sighed in his heart: I hope Su Cha can go smoothly there, otherwise it will be a big trouble!
