He looked at Du Qi, whose face became serious and even sharp, and his heart skipped a beat. Even, he rarely felt a sense of oppression from Du Qi, which made him very uncomfortable.
However, after a moment of silence, Xue Cong explained again: "Young Master Du, it's not that I don't want to be flexible. It's because Mo Ledu is strong and strong. Someone really made an appointment. Please forgive me."
Du Qi said seriously: "Then, how much did the other party pay for Mordo?"
"One thousand strings!"
Xue Cong spoke directly.
This is a sky-high price, and in fact, Xue Cong did it on purpose. He said that on purpose, and wanted to take this opportunity to make Du Qi back down and hand over Moredo.
For convenience, he took Morado away.
When Du Qi heard Xue Cong's words, there was a trace of coldness in his eyes. Du Qi now also knows the price of slaves in the market. Moredo is tall and fit for a guard, but it is impossible to reach a thousand.
A thousand strings is already a huge sum of money.
This is not a small amount.
Du Qi wanted to test Xue Cong, so he said again: "Shopkeeper Xue, it's not easy for you. So, I will give you 1,200 guan, and I will buy Moredo. What do you think?"
When Xue Cong heard the price, a look of shock appeared on his chubby face. Because he didn't expect that Du Qi was willing to spend 1,200 coins to buy Moredo, he was really surprised.
You know, Moredo is worthless.
Even Moredo who was kneeling on the ground, when he looked at Du Qi, his eyes were full of gratitude. Because Moredo was born as a slave, he knew better that the life of a slave is cheap, and it cannot be worth 1,200 pennies.
Even though he is tall and strong, as a Kunlun slave, it is quite good to be worth a hundred guan.
Morado is even more devoted to Du Qi.
He just wanted to follow Du Qi.
There was a kind smile on Xue Cong's chubby face, but he still refused: "Mr. Du, forgive me for not agreeing to your request. Now, I really can't break the contract. In this business, you have to pay attention to first-come-first-served. Therefore, Please forgive me, Young Master Du."
When Du Qi heard it, he understood.
This is really finding fault.
Instinctively, Du Qi immediately thought of Li Jiancheng who had been ordered to contemplate behind closed doors.
Because when he was recuperating from his injuries, someone from the Palace of the Prince of Qin came to convey the news that after Du Qi left the palace, Li Yuan ordered Li Jiancheng to contemplate behind closed doors.
It can be seen that Li Jiancheng hated Du Qi even more. Because everything that Li Jiancheng has done today is caused by Du Qi.
This is news from Prince Qin's Mansion.
Du Qi believes that the current situation, the only possibility, is again arranged by Li Jiancheng. Li Jiancheng couldn't come out in person, and he didn't dare to come out in person, let alone send someone to assassinate Du Qi.
So just trouble the people around Du Qi and take down Du Qi's guard first.
Du Qi made a judgment, and said, "Master Xue, it seems that you don't want to make me a friend, and you don't want to take advantage of it. That being the case, we are business-like, and we have to explain everything clearly. say clearly."
"Now, let's talk about the matter of Moredo being a slave. During this period of time, he has been in the mansion of my son, taught by me, cared for by me, and the expenses that should be paid to him. expense."
"These expenses must be settled clearly before they can be handed over."
Du Qi made a request.
Xue Cong's brows showed a touch of heroism, and he breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "What Mr. Du said is certainly reasonable. As for the exact cost, Mr. Du can just say it."
For Xue Cong, the task was completed by taking Morado away.
It's okay to pay a little money.
A smile appeared on Du Qi's face, and he said in a deep voice: "Speaking of which, Mo Le was taught by me, especially me who taught him poetry and prose, and also learned how to cook in today's restaurants, and even taught him how to run restaurants. The way, and the rules in Datang."
"My son treats Moredo, even though he is a servant, he still treats him as a disciple."
"Just this alone, the value is immeasurable."
Du Qi said solemnly: "Actually, apart from other things, there is also a lot of money for the food and clothing of Mo Ledo in my son's house. Each of these items must be settled clearly."
Du Qi?When he said these words, Mo Ledo panicked for a moment. He looked up at Du Qi, begging to stay, but Du Qi stared at him, and stopped talking.
Xue Cong said: "Young Master Du, just tell me, how much does it cost?"
Du Qi said in a deep voice: "Since we are talking about money, we have to talk about it. You want to take away Morado, and take out three thousand coins. Then, I will give Morado to you."
"What?"
Xue Cong's eyes widened with an unbelievable look, completely frightened by Du Qi's conditions.
Three thousand guan!
This is not a small amount.
Xue Cong took a deep breath, suppressed the surprise in his heart, and said, "Mr. Du, even if the lion opened his mouth, it wouldn't be like this. Buying a slave, even if it is expensive, is only a few tens of pennies. Once you open your mouth, you can buy a slave." It's three thousand guan. Such a price is unacceptable."
Du Qi said lightly: "Master Xue, what do you think of my master's knowledge?"
Xue Cong smiled sarcastically, and said seriously: "In Chang'an City, no one knows that Mr. Du is talented. Mr. Du's knowledge is naturally rich in knowledge, which is incalculable." He did not have the courage or confidence to say that Du Qi was mediocre.
It is impossible for a person with ordinary knowledge to write a majestic book like Romance of the Three Kingdoms, let alone a mythical story like Romance of the Gods.
Du Qi smiled lightly, and continued: "Since you know that my son is rich in knowledge, and this knowledge is priceless. Especially since Moledo was trained by me, it is not easy. So Sanqianguan is not very good, It's a fair conscience price."
Xue Cong's cheeks twitched.
Du Qi is too ruthless, it's completely a lion's mouth, and it's a deliberate extortion.
Xue Cong gritted his teeth, and said: "Young Master Du, I have the contract of Moredo. If you do this, I don't agree. I have the contract, you should hand it over to me."
Du Qi said lightly: "Master Xue, did I tell you not to hand over the person to you? As long as you give me the money, I will naturally hand over the person to you. So, as long as you take out three thousand coins, everything will be easy to talk about."
Moraduo knelt on the ground, and at this moment, his heart was already at ease.
Although he is simple and honest, he also understands.
Du Qi did this on purpose, to keep him. A reassuring smile appeared on Morado's honest face. He believes that his young master's ability will definitely not cause problems. He will definitely continue to stay by his son's side.
Xue Cong frowned.
He knew Du Qi's words were nonsense.
But the problem is, after careful consideration, with Du Qi's ability to turn stones into gold, coupled with Du Qi's talent and learning, Du Qi said that he taught Mo Ledo, and even regarded Mo Ledo as a disciple. Under such a premise, Du Qi asked for three thousand guan, even if there was a big trouble, Du Qi could still gain a firm foothold.
Because no one dares to underestimate Du Qi's business skills. After all, Du Qi's tea shops, restaurants and bookstores are now the hottest and most profitable in Chang'an City.
In addition, Du Qi's books are sought after by countless people, and no one dares to say that Du Qi is not good at learning.
Xue Cong clenched his fists, took a few deep breaths to calm himself down, and then said, "Young Master Du, let me tell the truth. This time, I was ordered by the Eastern Palace to come and take Moredo away. I have this paper contract, so Mr. Du must hand over the person to me. Otherwise, you will be tantamount to offending Prince Donggong."
Du Qi smiled lightly, without any fear on his face. He really guessed right, it was Dong Gong's arm again. Du Qi now feels that Li Jiancheng is really indomitable.
At this point, Li Jiancheng didn't give up, and even dealt with him. In other words, Li Jiancheng's arrangement was purely intentional to disgust him and come to find a job.
Du Qi snorted, and said, "Master Xue, what's the relationship between you and the East Palace?"
Xue Cong said: "East Palace and I actually have nothing to do with each other. I just got the arrangement from the East Palace, so I came here to complete the entrustment of the East Palace, that's all." (Remember this site website: www.hlnovel.com com
