Zhang Sheng cleaned up himself briefly, then took the money and went out. He planned to go to Li Duan's place first, and it would take a longer time to delay.

Zhang Sheng came to the Li Mansion all the way, and Li Duan was already waiting for him at this time, so when he heard that Zhang Sheng was coming, he hurried to the door to greet him.

The two of them were polite at the door, and Zhang Sheng followed Li Duan into the mansion. The two came all the way to the front hall. After the servants served tea, the official talked about the important matters.

"Instructor Li, I think my brother's purpose today cannot be hidden from you. I wonder what you think?" Zhang Sheng said

"Uh, this." After hearing Zhang Sheng's words, Li Duan's face was a little unnatural.

"I said Li Da's commander, when will the every move of the civil and military officials in the capital be hidden from your ears?"

"I think we should be more happy. I believe you know my visit, so you just want to tell me how much money you plan to sell in the village." Zhang Sheng said

"Oh, since Bo Yongyi has said all this, I won't hide it anymore. Just give me 30,000 taels." Li Duan said

"How many? Thirty thousand taels, I said, "Li Da's commander, aren't you scolding me? Then, you can sell me 30,000 taels for a good farm?"

"We're a business. I'm not here to fight Qiufeng today. If you have 30,000 taels, I won't dare to ask for it."

"You Da Li ordered the advantage so easy to take? I think you should give me a honest price, otherwise I really don't dare to take it, brother." Zhang Sheng said

Li Duan felt a little more comfortable after hearing Zhang Sheng's words. After all, this village in the suburbs of Beijing is already very scarce.

I don’t need the tens of thousands of taels of silver. If it weren’t for my bad luck, the farmer wouldn’t have sold anything.

"Brother Yongyi, if you weren't here today, I wouldn't be able to sell this farm, so it doesn't matter how much money is. Just think we're making friends." Li Duan said

"Hey, that's not what I said. I'm very willing to make friends like you, but I never let my friends suffer."

"So if I offer a price, you don't have to bargain. I think it's only 60,000 taels. From now on, we will be friends." Zhang Sheng said

"Haha, please, then I won't be pretentious anymore. It's the price. I've prepared the documents. Let's sign them now?" Li Duan said.

"Haha, that's right, this is just to make friends." After Zhang Sheng finished speaking, he signed the document.

"Instructor Li, I will stay here soon. I have a family here to go? I will set up a table in Chunfeng Tower another day, and we will not return without getting drunk." Zhang Sheng said

"Haha, okay, then I'm waiting for you, Bo Yongyi." Li Duan said

After that, Zhang Sheng found another excuse, chatted with Li Duan for a few words, then got up and said goodbye, and Li Duan sent him out of the mansion.

After Zhang Sheng left, Li Duan thought to himself, "This Zhang Sheng is really a wonderful person, what a pity." Thinking of this, Li Duan shook his head and walked towards the study.

After Zhang Sheng came out of Li's mansion, he went straight to the Duke of Chu's mansion and arrived soon.

Like Li Duan, the Xiong family had been waiting for Zhang Sheng for a long time. When Zhang Sheng arrived, they found that Xiong Zhan was waiting at the door.

The two of them still exchanged greetings at the door, then entered the mansion together, walked directly to the front hall and sat down.

"My little master, you know what I want to come here, please give me a price?" Zhang Sheng said

"The matter of Zhuangzi is not urgent. Just look at it, Bo Yongyi, it doesn't matter much." Xiong Zhan said

"Oh? Well, you know, young master, I just came over from the side of Instructor Li, and I gave him 60,000 taels of his farm. The same is true for you. What do you think?" Zhang Sheng said

"Haha, Bo Yongyi, I have said it before, it can be any more. Now I am quite curious about the legendary woman."

"What kind of woman is it that makes you willingly donate more than 100,000 taels of silver as a betrothal gift? I wonder if you can satisfy me, is my curiosity?" Xiong Zhan said

"Haha, the young master is joking. There is nothing to say. In fact, it's just that I like you and like you in my heart."

"I am a person with a high-sighted person and there are not many women who can catch my eyes. Anything I can like, what's the point of spending more money? It's not that I can't afford it, don't you think so?" Zhang Sheng said

"Haha, Bo Yongyi, you are a free and easy person. I am a little envious of you now. I think it's getting late. Let's have a meal together later. How about we have a few drinks?" Xiong Zhan said.

"This, then I'd rather obey my orders than respect. I'm just trying to taste the wine from your Duke's Mansion. What's the difference?" Zhang Sheng said

"Haha, the wine from our government office is guaranteed to satisfy you." Xiong Zhan said

After saying that, the two of them had another chat, and they didn't talk about serious matters at all, and they didn't even have any hints.

It was as if the two of them had just met. After all, the Duke's mansion was airtight, and what they said today would definitely be completely placed on the emperor's desk tomorrow.

So I just chatted and didn't say anything else. Until a quarter of an hour later, the two of them got up to have a meal.

When he arrived at the table, Zhang Sheng asked, "Mr. I've been here for so long, why haven't I seen Mr.? Are you angry with me?"

"Hey, Bo Yongyi, you are so serious. My father just doesn't know what to call you, so he simply didn't come out to see you." Xiong Zhan said

"Ah? Young Master, why is this? Of course I am the junior of Mr. Yes? What are you asking about this?" Zhang Sheng said

"Boy Yongyi, don't misunderstand it. Since I've said this, I'll say something. I'm sure you've heard of some things about our family."

"We didn't have anything to do with this title, but because my grandfather and uncle died in the battle, my father was allowed to inherit the title."

"This great wealth hit our family, so my father has been very careful, afraid that something would be wrong."

"It's like today's thing. It seems to be a normal thing to you, but when it comes to my father's side, it's a big deal." Xiong Zhan said helplessly.

"Ah? This, my uncle, I'm too much." Zhang Sheng said

"Hey, Bo Yongyi, you are so serious. Is this human nature? My father is really misunderstood."

"But I can't say anything as a son. I hope you can forgive me," Xiong Zhan said.

There was no sensitive topic next, the two of them were just chatting, and the banquet ended in an hour.

Xiong Zhan was drunk and pulled Zhang Sheng to say some drunken words, but Zhang Sheng seemed very energetic at this time. Finally, he supported Xiong Zhan and walked all the way to the gate.
