Chapter 154 Debt Collection(2/2)
He said, "What about selling an official position?"
Master Yu said, "Everything that can be sold has been sold out recently, and the imperial court is not short of many children!"
Qian's consort waved his hand, "I don't care about this. If you don't have money, just find a way to get it for me. Yu Ren, I hired you to be a master, not for you to say 'no' to me. Find out your identity!"
Don’t forget, if I hadn’t taken you in, you would still be setting up a street stall selling calligraphy and painting!”
Master Yu's face was ashen.
Every once in a while, Qian Shoudao would hit him with these words to make him remember his identity clearly. In his eyes, no matter how hard he works and how many great things he accomplishes, he deserves it. In his eyes, he deserves it.
, I am just a dog wagging its tail begging for mercy under his hands.
Master Yu bowed and said: "My consort, I will never forget your kindness!"
Consort Qian cursed angrily and said, "It's good to know. I don't care whether you stole or robbed that snuff bottle, I will see it tomorrow!" After that, he left angrily.
The rest of the men called a subordinate and gave some instructions. The subordinate nodded in agreement and left the Prince Consort's Mansion.
Now that Li Cai has been arrested, he has a lot of things to worry about. Even the princess is worried about this, but the prince-in-law still goes his own way, behaves like a slut, and acts like he can't support the wall with mud. It's really a headache.
.
The gap of 200,000 taels of silver is not a small amount after all. Baihua Building was sealed and the flow of gold and silver was cut off. The right way was to find a way to get money quickly.
At the Qicai Association, they have been stopped for a while due to the chaos at Six Doors. It seems that they have to find a way to revitalize this business. In addition, the only thing that can be quickly monetized is "people".
"Master Yu, Leader Cui of Sihetang has been waiting in the living room for a long time."
Cui Wentian, the leader of Sihetang, is also considered a number one figure in the world of the capital. They have asked people to find connections many times before, hoping to establish contact with Princess Taiping, but as Yu Ren, they simply looked down on her.
This kind of small gang, however, needs to solve financial problems at this time and that time, and the big officials in Beijing, because they are involved in the power storm, are waiting and watching, and those who can be counted on will
They are these marginal figures in the world.
And they happened to have what he lacked most, money!
Yu Ren said straight to the point, "Gang Leader Cui, I came to you today because I want to borrow money from you."
As the leader of the two major gang organizations in the capital, Cui Wentian is also very familiar with the troubles in the capital. He knows that the princess is now in trouble. It is easy to add icing on the cake, but it is difficult to provide help when the time is right. If he can seize the opportunity and climb on this line,
Maybe I can get to the next level, and maybe I can have a showdown with the martial arts leader Li Juefei.
"How much?"
"Two hundred thousand."
"What? Two hundred thousand?" Cui Wentian was stunned. He knew the current market situation, and even two hundred thousand taels could buy a prefect to sue him. Although Sihetang made money, there were also many places to spend money.
, there is simply no way to come up with so much money.
"Master Yu, I'm afraid our Sihetang won't be able to come up with so much money at once."
If someone talks to Yu Ren like this normally, Yu Ren won't even look at him. He asks you for money because he thinks highly of you. You don't know how many people are queuing up outside the door to send money inside, but the situation is different now.
, he said: "How many can there be?"
Cui Wentian said: "If you plan carefully, if you sum up the money from several industries, you can get 50,000 taels."
Fifty thousand taels cannot solve the urgent need at all.
Master Yu said, "It doesn't matter if you don't have money. In fact, the main reason I asked you to come is to ask you for a favor."
"Master Yu, just ask, if I can help you, I, Cui Wentian, will never frown."
Master Yu said, "I have a group of girls here. These girls are all beauties that Baihualou has collected from all over the world over the years. They are good at playing music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and singing. They are all beautiful and fragrant, and they are also beautiful.
It's Chu'er. Originally, I wanted to wait for a while and hold a Baihua Banquet at Baihua Tower, but the current situation does not allow it, so I want to help us sell it through your hands."
Cui Wentian hesitated, "We are in the gambling house business, this human flesh business..."
Master Yu said in a deep voice, "Why, you don't want to? Then I have to talk to the people from the Ghost House."
Sihetang and Guilou are the two largest gangs in the capital. They have never been in harmony. There are often conflicts between the two gangs. Either the east wind overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind overpowers the east wind. No one can gain an absolute advantage in the capital.
If Master Yu leaves this business to Guilou, maybe the other party can take advantage of the opportunity and find a backer by borrowing the donkey from the slope. Then it will be difficult to deal with them. Therefore, Cui Wentian made a quick decision and said: "
No problem! I’ll go back and contact the buyer right away. When do you want to do it?”
Yu Ren said: "The sooner the better!" He warned again, "Remember, these girls were bought by your Sihetang and have nothing to do with Baihua House. They are never allowed to reveal any relationship with us!"
Cui Qianwen gestured, "Understood!"
A few days later, news spread in the capital.
Sihetang is going to hold a Tianhai Grand Banquet at Tianhai Villa, and everyone who comes to participate is a beautiful woman. Moreover, this banquet is an invitation-only banquet. Only those with assets or status reaching a certain level are eligible.
be invited.
This news soon attracted the interest of countless squires and wealthy businessmen. Tickets to Tianhai Villa were hard to come by. It was said that the invitations alone were sold for two hundred taels each. Of course, except for a few of these invitations,
People with status are also products of Sihetang's hype. Not to mention buying and selling girls, the income from invitations to the villa alone is nearly 20,000 taels.
The people who know you best are often your opponents.
Guilou also got the news.
They felt strange that Sihetang had never been involved in the brothel business, so why did Baihualou start to get involved in the brothel industry just after it was closed down? This is a coveted piece of fat. The Prince Consort's House was operating it before, so they didn't dare to get involved, but
Things are very different now.
After several inquiries, they vaguely found out that these girls, the Tianhai Feast, and Baihua Tower were inextricably linked. Aren't the Six Doors currently investigating Baihua Tower?
