Chapter 186 The Despair of Changsun Wuji
Chapter 186 Changsun Wuji's Despair (One Update)
"Big cousin, why are you here?" Chen Ying looked at Yang Rong in surprise. This beauty who is one of thousands of people in both figure and appearance. Usually, women who can smile always make people feel pleasing to the eye, and Yang Rong is the best among women.
Although Yang Rong is more than enough to be Chen Ying’s mother, when she stood with Li Xiuning, no one would doubt this when she said that Yang Rong and Li Xiuning were sisters.
Chen Ying also felt strange that Yang Rong and Wu Zetian were both monsters in history. In later generations, Yang Rong and Wu Zetian were both very famous, especially Rong Guo’s wife Yang Rong, who was a close friend of the daughters with her grandson Helan Min, which is a widely circulated plot in the miscellaneous records of unofficial history.
Chen Ying was very skeptical about this. Judging from the age, Helan Minzhi was the son of Wu Zetian's sister, Wu Shun, and the age difference between the two was very huge. Yang Rong gave birth to Wu Shun in her forties, while Helan Minzhi, who was born at the age of 21, can be said that when Helan Minzhi was born, Yang Rong was already in her seventies.
Of course, when Wu Zetian ascended the throne and appointed Feng Xiaobao and Zhang Yizhi's brothers as male favorites, he was also in his seventies. Even if Yang Rong really had this lustful heart, the key is that Helan Minzhi can really be avoided by meat and vegetables?
I'm afraid the truth of history is that Helan almost defiled Princess Taiping and traitorized the quasi-president. This may have made Wu Zetian unable to bear it, so she killed her and listed all his crimes so that he could die convincingly. If she could not do so, she gave her mother a big hat.
While Chen Yingfu was thinking a lot, Yang Rong smiled and said, "Why... you don't welcome me?"
"No...no, absolutely nothing!" Chen Ying chuckled and said, "Since my cousin likes it, let's play for a while, and the autumn harvest will be coming in a while. In the Western Regions, there is a scene of harvesting millions of acres of grain fields. You will definitely not see it in the pass. Then you can feast your eyes!"
Yang Rong smiled and said, "I have heard of the pleasant scenery of the Western Regions for a long time. The customs and customs here, the delicacies here, and the cultural atmosphere here are all fascinating. I really have to stay here for a while, but I don't know if it's inconvenient?"
Chen Ying waved his hand and said, "There are not so many bad rules on Xizhou Road. If you are interested, you can buy one in the Western Regions, build your own castle, and be the lord of the fort behind closed doors!"
Yang Rong said happily: "That's great. I really have such an idea. Your Chenjia Fort is well built, and I want such a castle too..."
"You can go around, I will send you a team of guards. If you have a fancy to the place, I will give you approval!" Chen Ying exchanged greetings with Yang Rong, and slowly entered the topic and said: "Cousin, I don't know what you are planning to do when you come to the Western Regions this time? I heard that you are interested in cotton in the Western Regions?"
Yang Rong said lightly: "Yes, this is my main purpose in coming to the Western Regions. In fact, I want to buy cotton. The cotton has good warmth and warmth effect. However, they said that the yield is insufficient. However, you are my cousin in the Western Regions. You can definitely give me some of it. Of course, it would be even better if you can sell me the planting technology."
Chen Yingdao waved his hand and said, "Don't think about the planting technology. Now all the fields in the pass are mainly based on growing grain. Even if they are sold to you, you have no place to grow them. What's more, the yield of this kind of thing is extremely low. A mu of coarse cotton is only fifty or sixty kilograms, and the elastic cotton wool is only twenty or thirty kilograms. They are all used to plant cotton. What do the people eat? However, it's easy for you to ask for cotton. Tell me, how much do you want?"
Yang Rong raised her palm, stretched out her five fingers and said, "At least..."
"Five hundred thousand jin!" Chen Ying said readily: "Five hundred thousand jin is only 500 thousand jin, right? No problem! It's not more than three months, I'll guarantee you will prepare enough for you!"
Yang Rong didn't dare to expect so much. She thought that even if Chen Ying gave her face, it would be good to have 50,000 or 60,000 kilograms. You should know that the Wang family in Taiyuan only got 6,000 kilograms of cotton. However, Yang Rong was also a smart person. She heard the meaning outside of Chen Ying's words, and he had a lot of cotton. Yang Rong said in surprise: "Five hundred thousand kilograms are not a small amount, really no problem?"
Chen Ying said domineeringly: "I said there is no problem, so there is no problem. By the way, do you want cotton? High-quality cotton!"
Yang Rong was immediately excited. In addition to cotton, she needed the kind of cotton cloth that was strong, smooth, breathable, and sweat-absorbing, especially for underwear, which was very comfortable to wear against her body. She also thought of many ways in advance, including buying money and seducing beauty. But she never expected that before she could use these tricks, Chen Ying asked her carelessly if she wanted cotton cloth! She was so excited that she said with a straight voice: "Yes! You want! Of course you want!"
Chen Ying said: "What are you going to pay for?"
Yang Rong said: "Will 10% of the stocks of the Datang Tongli Money Bank succeed?"
Chen Ying smiled very brightly: "Okay, of course there is no problem!"
Chen Yingmao's offer... Of course, the lion opened his mouth, and Yang Rong naturally bargained with him, slicing it by penny, and finally sold it at a price of 100 cents per kilogram. The price of copper coins in the Tang Dynasty, each cent, was about 4.27 cents per kilogram (forum data, not accurate). A pound of cotton sold for more than 400 yuan is also considered a sky-high price. You should know that the wholesale price of cotton tires in later generations is actually only fifteen yuan, and a quilt is about 100 yuan. Now it is almost thirty times the price of later generations.
A big profit!
As for cotton, it is sold at a price of 10,000 yuan per piece, which is more than three times the price of silk. In fact, buying cotton is far from selling cotton, but Chen Ying considered it for a long time. Once the price is too high, the people will definitely not be able to afford it.
In any case, 500,000 jin is about five stagnant.
One hundred thousand pieces of money, one hundred thousand coins. As 150,000 coins of money flowed into Chen Ying's pocket, Chen Ying made a lot of money!
...
When he just entered the closed room, Changsun Wuji wanted to laugh a little. Just like this small and dilapidated house, can he still surrender? Chen Ying was a little too naive.
Because Chen Ying did not explain the pain to Changsun Wuji, the first thing Changsun Wuji did was to fall asleep. These days, he had been worried about Chen Ying's means to deal with him, so Changsun Wuji had been worried about being afraid. Now, Chen Ying showed him a clear carriage and horse, and he only needed to stay in this small house for ten days and ten nights before he could let him go.
In the Western Regions Protectorate, where water cannot be poured into, Chen Ying was always the sharp sword hanging on Changsun Wuji's head, so Changsun Wuji couldn't eat well and couldn't sleep well.
Even though Changsun Wuji did not deliberately lose weight in the past year, he also ate big fish and meat. However, because he was mentally nervous, his figure did not recover. When his fist fell on his body, Changsun Wuji felt much more at ease, and he started to sleep carefreely.
After sleeping for seven hours, Changsun Wuji slept until he woke up naturally. Looking at the dark confinement room, he didn't know how long it had been now. After touching his shriveled belly, Changsun Wuji patted the iron-clad door wrapped in the closed room, and yelled while slapped the door: "I am hungry, send some food!"
I don’t know how long it took, but when Changsun Wuji thought Chen Ying was about to starve him to death in this small confinement room, the small grid above Changsun Wuji’s head suddenly opened from it, and a ray of light came from outside.
Changsun Wuji's eyes could not adapt to the sudden arrival of strong light, so he covered his eyes with his hands. However, this ray of light disappeared in just a moment, and the darkness was restored to the confinement room.
Changsun Wuji groped in the dark and found that there was a large basin of boiled mutton in the tray, half a fat chicken, a large bowl of rice, and four half a pound of steamed buns. What was even more rare was that there was a small plate of salted soybeans.
Changsun Wuji was not worried that Chen Ying would be poisoned, so he ate a meal. After eating, Changsun Wuji lay on the small bed. For the time being, he could not understand the horror of the confinement room. What he thought the most about now was how to retaliate against Chen Ying with freedom and power in the future.
"Kill with one knife?"
Thinking of this, Changsun Wuji shook his head. He felt that dealing with Chen Ying was too cheap. Chen Ying was so angry that he wanted to peel off Chen Ying's skin at this moment. He even thought fiercely, find a fast horse, tied Chen Ying's hands, and let the fast horse drag Chen Ying away, making Chen Ying exhausted.
Of course, this is just Changsun Wuji's wishful thinking. He can deal with Chen Ying, but Chen Ying must not die. Before the relationship between Li Xiuning and Chen Ying broke down, if he killed Chen Ying, he would probably not end. Once Li Xiuning acted ruthlessly, Li Shimin would definitely not be able to protect him.
Otherwise, there was a flash of inspiration in Changsun Wuji's head, or he would find a few prostitutes with dirty diseases to seduce Chen Ying and let Chen Ying get this dirty disease?
In this way, Li Xiuning will definitely be angry with Chen Ying. Once the relationship between the couple breaks down, Chen Ying will die.
However, this idea was destined to be an idea, because the six concubines around Chen Ying, Li Daozhen, He Yueer, and Xu Erniang, all have their own advantages and good looks. I'm afraid Chen Ying was not so easy to fall into the trap...
During the first three days, Changsun Wuji kept asking his brain to explore the tricks of dealing with Chen Ying in this way. However, after three days, Changsun Wuji slowly discovered that unless he was willing to die with Chen Ying, there was no way to deal with Chen Ying. Li Xiuning and Li Shimin were always the hurdle he could not get by.
From full of hope to finally becoming disappointed, this psychological gap has further aggravated Changsun Wuji's loneliness.
In the dark and dark confinement room, Changsun Wuji didn't know what time it was outside. Even if he had just slept, you didn't even know how long it took you to sleep for a quarter of an hour or an hour!
No one talked to Changsun Wuji. He could not see anything except darkness or hear any sound in his eyes. He was completely in a dark space. This feeling of not knowing nothing is a great impact and oppression for both physiology and psychology.
On the fourth day, Changsun Wuji's temper began to become irritable and he couldn't help but yell, but no one paid attention to these soldiers guarding him. Changsun Wuji wanted to know what it was like now, even if he told him whether it was day or night, for Changsun Wuji, it was all the sound of nature.
However, ideals are full, but reality is too backbone.
Seeing that the roaring could not cause any emotional fluctuations in the guards, Changsun Wuji began to curse the guards, from a gentle manner of scolding, and not spitting dirty words, gradually becoming a greeting to all the women of the eighteen generations. However, Changsun Wuji was still disappointed, even if he was scolding, no one paid attention to him.
