Chapter 437: 32,000 Business
Jiang Ningwan raised her eyebrows. So that’s what happened.
She was very familiar with the business in Canglong. Although the business was improving, it was difficult to make a profit at this stage and it would take a long time to start making money.
Qianqiu Trading Company’s shops haven’t started making money yet. Qin Beihuang is not good at doing business, so it’s even harder for his shops to make money.
Selling it to her now is a good choice.
After all, Prince Yi’s Mansion’s financial resources cannot allow Qin Beihuang to continue to suffer losses.
But this is not a bad thing for her.
The scale of Qianqiu Trading Company can be expanded, and making money is only a matter of time.
"Okay, how many shops? Let's talk about the price."
Seeing that she agreed, Qin Beihuang breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at the street and saw a small pub not far away, but not many people were there.
"Go sit down and talk slowly."
Then the two of them came to the tavern, and Qin Beihuang ordered two pots of wine and a few side dishes.
"There are thirteen shops in total, and the location is not very good."
Jiang Ningwan casually poured a glass of wine and asked, "Just tell me how much you want it to sell for."
"Three hundred thousand taels."
Jiang Ningwan, who had just taken a sip of wine, almost spit it out.
Fortunately she didn't swallow it, otherwise she would have choked to death.
She raised her head in shock, "Qin Beihuang, are you crazy or am I stupid?"
"Even a shop in Kyoto isn't worth that much, not to mention you said the location is bad. Why are you asking for 300,000 taels?"
Qin Beihuang quickly said, "Don't worry, it's not what you think."
"I want three hundred thousand taels, of which one hundred thousand can be used to pay for the goods and the workers, and the remaining one hundred thousand will be considered a loan."
Jiang Ningwan was surprised, "Workers?"
Qin Beihuang: "I have more than sixty employees in those dozen or so shops, and they all signed indentures to sell themselves."
"They are all young and strong, there is no old, weak or sick people. It should be worth it to buy them to work like slaves for a lifetime with this little money."
"Including the goods, it's enough to sell for three to five years. It's not a small amount."
Jiang Ningwan was shocked after hearing this. The total amount was indeed not a small amount, but it was far less than 100,000 taels.
And he also wants to borrow 100,000 taels.
What did he borrow so much money for?
"These shops are not worth so much money, and you want to borrow 100,000 taels. It's impossible."
Since the deal couldn't be concluded, Jiang Ningwan had no need to sit down and stood up to leave.
Qin Beihuang stopped her again: "Since I dare to ask you this, I will naturally not let you suffer any loss."
Jiang Ningwan smiled coldly, "Then tell me, what can you use to borrow 100,000 taels?"
Qin Beihuang took out two land deeds from his arms and placed them on the table.
Jiang Ningwan opened it curiously and took a look.
I couldn't help being surprised.
It turned out to be the land deeds of Prince Yi's Mansion and General Xuanwei's Mansion.
"It will only take three years for me to repay the money I borrowed from you. I borrowed 100,000 taels and will repay you 200,000 taels."
"If you can't pay it back, these two deeds will be yours. I know these two houses aren't worth that much money, but after paying for these deeds, if there's still a difference, I'll repay with military force."
"If you are short of 10,000 taels, I will compensate you with 20,000 soldiers."
"how?"
After hearing this, Jiang Ningwan was secretly shocked. Is Qin Beihuang crazy? Is he betting so big?
In three years, pay back double the money.
If you can't pay it back, I'll use your house and soldiers as payment.
She had never seen it before.
"How can we resist this force? Although the Xuanwei Army is under your command, it is ultimately the Daning Army, not your personal property. Can you give it to me just like that?"
Qin Beihuang said calmly, "If you're willing, we can sign a contract. If I haven't paid you back within three years, I will voluntarily resign from my position, and the troops will naturally be allocated to you."
Jiang Ningwan's eyes lit up.
This is indeed a sure-win deal for her.
She was also curious about what Qin Beihuang was planning and how he would make enough money to pay her back within three years.
"Let me think about it." Jiang Ningwan didn't rush to agree to him.
When he was about to leave, Qin Beihuang handed her the deed again and said, "Take it. This is my sincerity."
"I hope you can agree."
Jiang Ningwan didn't accept it, "Let's talk about it after we've negotiated."
Looking at Jiang Ningwan's departing back, Qin Beihuang's eyes were deep. This time, he would take back everything he had lost!
The days rise very late in winter. When you open the window in the morning, the biting cold hits you and makes you lose all desire to sleep.
The streets were filled with white fog, and the figures of people could not be seen clearly in the fog.
It’s a good time to set off!
The heavy fog in the early morning just concealed their tracks.
Before leaving, Jiang Ningwan wrote a letter and sent it to Kyoto City urgently.
Gather the team and set off back to Beijing.
When Jiang Ningwan arrived in Kyoto, a month had passed since the winter solstice.
I thought that miracle doctor had already appeared.
The first thing Jiang Ningwan did when she returned to the palace was to inquire about this matter.
Qin Shuangchi shook off the wind and snow on her body, "That miracle doctor didn't show up."
"Go take a shower and change your clothes first, don't catch a cold."
Jiang Ningwan was a little disappointed, and Lichun took her to take a shower and change clothes.
Qin Shuangchi asked someone to add more charcoal to the room. When Jiang Ningwan came out after taking a shower and changing clothes, the room was warm.
It was a frosty winter day, and Jiang Ningwan curled up on the soft couch. The cold wind came in through the gaps in the window, blowing the pages of the book slightly.
Jiang Ningwan picked up the hot tea and took a sip.
Curiously, he asked, "It's been so long since the winter solstice, and that miracle doctor hasn't appeared yet. Could it be that he's noticed something?"
"After all, if he intended to harm Princess Yi, he should have paid attention to her condition. She would have died long ago, so it's impossible for anyone to continue buying pills."
Qin Shuangchi nodded thoughtfully, "That's possible."
"Wait a little longer and see if he shows up."
It's been so long, it's highly unlikely to happen.
But they all still hold on to a glimmer of hope.
After having lunch at the Prince of Chu's Mansion, Jiang Ningwan went into the palace to meet Qin Wenli and Xie Lianyi, and handed Xie Chenyuan's jade pendant to Xie Lianyi.
He also explained what happened when he met Xie Chenyuan in Xuanshan, as well as Xie Chenyuan's plans and intentions.
Xie Lianyi clutched the jade pendant tightly, tears welling up in her eyes. She knew the meaning of the jade pendant.
Xie Chenyuan's trip was probably a life-or-death one.
"Lianyi, don't worry. Chen Yuan has been able to hide for such a long time without being caught. He is very lucky, capable, and smart. He will definitely be able to escape danger this time!"
Qin Wenli was worried that her crying would hurt her health, so he held her shoulders and comforted her.
Because of worrying about Xie Chenyuan during this period, Xie Lianyi almost lost her appetite and became very thin.
Jiang Ningwan could do nothing except to comfort her.
In her previous life, she was completely focused on Prince Yi's Mansion and searching for evidence to redress his innocence, so she really didn't know anything about Dayan's affairs.
I don’t know whether Xie Chenyuan was alive in the end.
"I know……"
Xie Lianyi knew that everyone was worried about her health, and she also knew that she couldn't do this, but she couldn't control her emotions.
"Don't worry about me, I'll be fine."
As Xie Lianyi spoke, she began to cry uncontrollably. As she wiped her tears, she became more and more unable to control herself.
She didn't know what was wrong with her.
As she cried, her eyes went dark and she passed out.
"Ripples!" Qin Wenli was shocked.
Jiang Ningwan was also startled and quickly stepped forward to grab Xie Lianyi's wrist.
"Has she not been eating much lately?"
Qin Wenli nodded. "Yes, he said he couldn't eat anymore after just two bites. I tried to make something appetizing, but he didn't eat much."
Jiang Ningwan: "It's cold in winter, she hasn't eaten much and is a little weak. We need to ask the imperial physician to come and see her and prescribe some medicine to help the fetus."
There were not many trustworthy doctors in the Imperial Medical Bureau, so Zhang Yunsong was called over.
After taking the patient's pulse, Zhang Yunsong was writing a prescription.
Suddenly the emperor appeared at the door.
"I passed by your place and saw the imperial physician rushing around. Is Lianyi sick?"
