Chapter 422: The Crazy Shell [(1)]
On June 16th, just after 3 am, in a flower hall in the inner courtyard of Prince Beijing’s Residence, Shuirong, a rare figure, laid alone on a soft couch. Although his eyes were closed, he was tossing and turning, unable to sleep soundly.
Suddenly, a faint sound of footsteps came to Shuirong's ears. He immediately sat up straight and asked in a loud voice, "Why? Has it already been counted?”
The visitor was originally cautious and afraid of disturbing him. At this moment, as soon as Shuirong asked, he quickly flew up to him and said happily, "Congratulations, Your Highness. Out of the more than 20000 golden shells that Manager Liu intercepted yesterday, 17% were of medium quality, and even more than 10 were of high quality.”
Upon hearing this, Shuirong was overjoyed and didn't care about his untidy clothes. He got out of bed and said, "Thanks to my Brother-in-law's advice, I'm afraid I don't even know that there is such a way to collect money in the world.”
The person on the opposite side of the relationship was not the other person; it was Wei Rusong, who was once interrupted by Sun Shaozu.
Seeing the courtesy of the Prince, Wei Rusong hurriedly dodged to the side, waved his hand, and said humbly, "I dare not take credit for this. If it weren't for Manager Liu from the mansion who thought of intercepting the merchants who were trafficking in pottery, pearls, gold, and shells outside the city, we wouldn't have been able to get a share from you, Your Highness.”
It turned out that when Wei Ruolan, his younger brother, learned about pottery, pearls, gold, and shells, Wei Rusong began to take advantage of the situation to make a profit. However, when he sent someone to conduct market research, he unexpectedly discovered that Prince Zhongshun’s Residence was the mastermind behind Sun Shaozong's speculation.LaaTest novels on (
At that time, Wei Rusong was in a dilemma.
The cheapness of Prince Zhongshun was not easy to gain. If he made a small fuss, it was just a matter of paying it back. If he accidentally crossed the border and offended Prince Zhongshun, wouldn't it be an overjoyed tragedy?
But since it was Prince Zhongshun behind the scenes, did it not prove that this pottery, pearls, gold, and shells were profitable?
It was not easy to catch a divine opportunity; how could they miss it?
After hesitating repeatedly, Wei Rusong finally found his Brother-in-law, Prince Beijing. The others were afraid of offending Prince Zhongshun. But Shuirong, who had the Eldest Princess as a backup, was not afraid!
As expected.
After hearing this emotional and reasonable relief, Shuirong's heart immediately calmed down and immediately ordered eagerly, "Then send someone to spread the news outside and strive to carry the middle-grade golden shells to thirty taels of silver per piece by the end of the month, and the lower grade ones to no less than twenty taels of silver.”
“Noted, Your Highness.”
Wei Rusong responded with a tone of expression and said, "Actually, in the evening, I had already sent someone to bribe a beggar. Tomorrow, he will start to boast.”
“The beggar probably doesn’t need a long time before he picks up the pottery, pearls, gold, and shells and makes a fortune overnight. Not only can he buy a woman in the mansion, but he can even buy the identity of the Beggar Security position, and the news will spread throughout the city. By then, this pottery, pearls, gold, and shells will naturally have a big surge.”
As he said this, he laughed bitterly again, "Speaking of it, the beggar is still in the memorial archway set up by Sun Erlang. I'd like to see how his Beggar Security system can continue to be implemented after the news spreads!"
“This...”
At first, Shuirong nodded repeatedly upon hearing this. But upon hearing it, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Brother, Ruolan has suffered from Sun Shaozong's actions several times before. I think this person is a powerful character. Now that our situation is good, why do you still bother to provoke him? In case something goes wrong...”
“You worry too much, Your Highness.”
Wei Rusong shook his head disdainfully and said, "That Sun Erlang looks like a strong suit, but he's actually just a dog kept by Prince Zhongshun. Even if he dares to cause trouble for us, how dare he rebel against Prince Zhongshun's thoughts?”
Upon hearing this, Shuirong also felt that this statement was reasonable.
After all, a few days ago, Sun Shaozong was still sending people to investigate the matter of the pottery, pearls, gold, and shells, but suddenly he gave up. According to common sense, he was obviously afraid of the power of the two Royal Residences.
Therefore, he didn't take it seriously and stretched out his waist, yawning and saying, "Since everything is in the hands of you, Brother-in-law, I will go take a nap first and make up for it.”
Wei Rusong bowed slightly and said confidently, "Your Highness, please go to the backyard to rest. I guess by the time you wake up from your dream, the high-quality golden shell will have already crossed the threshold of fifteen taels.”
