Chapter 105 We've Made This Deal
After just a moment, Song Li welcomed Ying Yuan in with a complicated expression.
Then he waved his hand and took away everyone in the palace.
The Zhangtai Palace was completely left to the father and son.
This private conversation lasted for two full hours.
No one knows what happened in the back room!
No one heard it, and no one dared to ask!
It was not until Ying Yuan pushed open the palace gate and walked out with a solemn look on his face that the matter came to an end.
Song Li stood at the palace gate and bowed to Ying Yuan as a courtesy to see him off.
Ying Yuan nodded slightly at Song Li, without saying a word, he shook his sleeves and strode out of Zhangtai Palace.
Looking at the figure walking away with his head held high, Song Li stared in a daze for a long time, until the other person's figure was completely out of sight, he turned around.
No one knew about this scene in Zhangtai Palace!
At this time, in another mansion not far from Zhangtai Palace, there was chaos.
One by one, the middle-aged and elderly people, dressed in gorgeous clothes, looked at each other at the door as if they had made an appointment, and then walked into the mansion with the words "Feng Mansion" hanging on the wall.
Feng Jie was standing at the door welcoming guests. He greeted everyone with a smile, and from time to time he glanced at the two words "Feng Mansion" above his head which seemed to have not yet dried.
Ten days ago, what was hung here was [Left Prime Minister’s Mansion]!
But now, there is only one name [Feng Mansion] hanging there!
There is no way. The Feng family is no longer in its glory days.
The crowd came into the main hall and first saluted and greeted Feng Quji who was sitting at the top.
"Meet Mr. Feng!"
"Meet Mr. Feng!"
"Meet Mr. Feng!"
"..."
Looking at Feng Quji, who seemed to have aged ten years in just a few days, with his hair and beard all gray, the guests of noble birth also sighed in their hearts.
Power is a man's courage!
Look at this Prime Minister who was so high-spirited ten days ago. Who would have thought that he would be in such a mess in just a few days.
"Hello everyone!"
"I feel exhausted today. If I need to discuss anything with you in the future, please let Feng Jie do it for me!"
"Everyone, what do you think?"
Even though Feng Quji is no longer the prime minister, the bearing he developed as an official for many years and ruling the world is still there.
Therefore, when everyone saw Feng Quji speaking, they did not object, but instead praised him repeatedly.
"Okay, okay, Master Feng, just rest assured and recuperate. With Master Feng here, we will feel at ease!"
"Yes, Lord Feng has left Wang Jian speechless today. This is not something that most people would dare to do!"
"That's right, that old bastard Wang Jian is the tiger in the army. Apart from Lord Xiao Feng, who dares to touch his beard?"
"Tsk tsk, Wang Jian got a big one today, Master Xiao Feng is so mighty!"
“Hahahaha, Master Xiao Feng will have to take care of me more in the future!”
……
Feng Jie responded to everyone's compliments with a smile on his face, but his eyes were clear.
He has been with his father since he was a child, dealing with these people.
He knows these people's background too well.
All the promises and compliments are fake. These people only care about their own interests!
As long as the benefits are in place, even the wife and children can be sold, not to mention a little flattery? !
But... this did not prevent Feng Jie from interacting with everyone with a smile on his face.
Because the Feng family still needs their support, and he, Feng Jie, needs the support of these people even more.
Especially after Feng Quji lost his position as prime minister, the Feng family was already in danger.
If it weren't for these nobles waving their flags and cheering behind the scenes, the Feng family would have surely fallen.
...The greetings between the two sides lasted for about half an hour before gradually coming to an end.
It was at this time that Feng Jie told everyone the second important reason for this gathering.
As for the first thing, of course, he inherited his father Feng Quji's position and became the new leader.
If it weren't for this, why would he kill Wang Jian today?
You know, although they all said that they treated Wang Jian like a piece of trash, as if Wang Jian was really a sick tiger.
But in reality, who dares to look down on Wang Jian?
Who would want to make enemies with the Wang family?
You know, the Wang family is not just Wang Jian, there are also Wang Ben and Wang Li!
If it weren't for today's incident, Feng Jie would not have joined forces with the Wang family, but he also couldn't make enemies with them!
But after weighing the pros and cons, he decisively went ahead.
For, isn’t it just this move today?
"Okay, everyone. Wang Jian is a sick tiger, but he is still a tiger!"
"We can tease him occasionally, but when we have nothing to do, we should just ignore him."
"The Wang family has made too many military achievements, so now they need to keep a low profile!"
"But if we really make this family angry, then we will suffer a lot!"
Everyone stopped laughing at this time, and instead nodded seriously.
Obviously, this group of people are just talking.
They are also wary of the Wang family!
After briefly mentioning the Wang family, Feng Jie finally got down to business.
"The reason I brought you all together today is because I have a big deal to share with you!"
After hearing this and seeing Feng Jie's determined look, everyone became interested.
Make money?
It’s good to make money!
"Oh, Master Xiao Feng, please speak!"
"I knew that Master Xiao Feng had good news to tell us today, but I didn't expect it to be such good news!"
"Hahaha, Lord Xiao Feng, please give us your orders and we will absolutely obey!"
……
Listening to this nonsense, Feng Jie simply pretended not to hear it and explained with a smile on his face.
"Did you pay attention to what Master Fusu said today?"
"That paper can be sold!"
"Although we don't know the share yet, since both gentlemen regard this paper as a magical tool to fill the national treasury, it will definitely be sold!"
"And the opportunity I've been waiting for is right here!"
When everyone heard this, they were not as happy as Feng Jie had expected. Instead, they hesitated for a moment before asking.
"Master Xiao Feng, I'm afraid this is impossible!"
"We just confronted the Sixth Young Master. This is clearly a money-making business, how could he wait for us?"
Feng Jie smiled and waved his hand.
"Everyone, you only saw us fighting against Ying Yuan, but forgot that we have an advantage that ordinary people can't get!"
"That is, we are all wealthy people!"
"Then Ying Yuan, now that he is the regent, if he refuses the money we offer because of his own selfishness, does he still want to be the regent?"
"But if we sell it, who else but us can come up with such a large sum of money?"
Having said that, Feng Jie waved his hand with confidence.
"Only we have this ability!"
"If he wants to sell, he can sell. If he doesn't want to sell, he still has to sell!"
"Only we can do this business!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of all the nobles suddenly lit up!
Yup!
I have money!
Who can be richer than me?
Who else but me can do this business?
