Chapter 280

: Become an official

After returning from the fourth toilet, he lay on the bed: "Linghua, look for a doctor."

Having a stomachache is a minor problem, but Chen Shimei's body is not strong at all, and she is even weak after she came out of the cell. Such a minor problem is enough to make him no longer have the strength to vent his accumulation. After three consecutive trips to the toilet, his feet have already started to float, and he has no strength when he walks.

Even so, he still cannot lie down because the stage of bail is very important and he must make good use of every second, which is directly related to his own destiny.

Chen Shizhong took care of the villa, and Chen Yuan was still quite relieved. What he couldn't let go of now was the maritime trade he was about to start.

I have never entered this industry, and Zhang Kuangzheng's previous crafts were all mainly taking risks. Is it really okay to leave the transaction to him? Chen Yuan was a little worried. So he had to negotiate with Wang Lun to make Wang Lun's cargo store form a complementary situation with his fleet.

Chen Yuan knew that this was very troublesome. Now that the goods bank is in Wang Lun's hands, he no longer wants to do it. He was counting on himself to take over the goods bank a few days ago. Now that such a thing happened, it is impossible for him to take over the goods bank in the short term. Is Wang Lun really willing to hold on for a few more months?

When Chen Yuan talked about this idea to Wang Lun, he did not touch Wang Lun. Love will be affection, business will be business. Wang Lun could not invest money in the bottomless pit that he could not fill in for the sake of his love with Chen Yuan.

"Brother Chen, I really plan to close the goods store. Now I have to close the goods store, which means I will lose a little money you have to give me back from Liao Kingdom. If I hold on, even my old capital will be invested in. I think very clearly. This time, Brother Chen comes out and I will transfer it to you at a low price. If you can't take it, I'll just close it." Wang Lun was a little disappointed. After all, he has invested a lot of effort in this transaction. If it wasn't really a last resort, he wouldn't want to end like this.

Chen Yuan was a little troubled. If the villa continued to operate in the past half month, he would have enough strength to take the store over until today. However, the villa not only did not make money in the past half month, but also had to invest money in it every day.

The girls didn't leave, and the Jurchens were also waiting for Chen Yuan to come out, waiting for news from their relatives. It was a good thing that these people didn't leave, but since they stayed, Crescent Villa would have to take care of their food and drink.

Although Renzong asked Chen Yuan to come back now, it was not said when the villa would be reopened. There was a sign hanging on the gate that was suspended. It was still unknown when he could start making money again, and even Chen Yuan dared not say whether he could be business again.

At this time, even if Wang Lun sells it at a low price, Chen Yuan still has no confidence to take over.

But if Wang Lun really shut down the store, the things inside will be sold in the warehouse and the fields, and when he wants to use it, he will buy land, build a warehouse, and hire a friend, the price will be even greater.

Both of them were silent. Wang Lun looked at Chen Yuan from time to time, and Chen Yuan often looked at Wang Lun. Finally, Chen Yuan said: "Brother Wang, you have nothing to say at this price, but if your brother takes over now, you will take a lot of risks."

Wang Lun nodded: "I know this. I have also found someone else, but no one dares to do it. I have paid off this deal, and now I am just thinking about paying less. I am going to go to Tubo to do two business, and I think I can earn back the money, but this business must get rid of it soon."

Chen Yuanyi gritted his teeth: "Look at this, I'll give you half of the money first, and I'll give you the remaining half twice. I'll give you the second one in a month, and settle it in half a year. Brother Wang now knows the situation of this. After I take over the goods store, I will have to carry out some transformation. All of these costs money. If I pay it all, I'm really unbearable."

Wang Lun finally nodded: "Okay, it's much better than if I'm locked up and sold at a low price. That's it. I hope Brother Chen will be quick. If possible, how about we negotiate the matter the day after tomorrow?"

The two parties agreed that the day after tomorrow, Chen Yuan took someone to Wang Lun's goods store, and paid the money with one hand and signed the contract with the other. After signing the contract, the goods store would be his own. If it is usually the price offered by Wang Lun is enough to surprise Chen Yuan, it is a very cost-effective deal. But now it is different. Wang Lun's cedes a little painful. Whether it is a help or a burden for Chen Yuan depends on the result of Renzong's handling of him.

Chen Yuan didn't eat anything from noon to evening, and didn't even drink a sip of water, in order to ensure that the stomach had no pressure to be released except for a few sounds. Because he also wanted to see Lu Yijian and find out what attitude Renzong had towards him! It would be bad if he wanted to go to the toilet later when he met Lao Lu.

After seeing Wang Lun away, he waited for a while and was sure that his stomach was really empty, so he asked Han Qi to drive the carriage to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Lu Yijian seemed to know that Chen Yuan would come. When Chen Yuan asked for a meeting, Lu Fu smiled and said, "The Prime Minister has been waiting for you, come in."

Lu Fu led Chen Yuan all the way to Lu Yijian. At this time, Lu Yijian was writing calligraphy. Chen Yuan knew that this old man didn't like others to disturb him when he was writing, so he stood aside and waited obediently.

Lu Yijian looked up at him, smiled, and signaled him to sit down and continue to write until he finished writing: "What's wrong with Shimei? He doesn't seem to be in good spirits."

Chen Yuan smiled bitterly: "I returned to the prime minister and had too much oil and water at noon, and my stomach was very troubled."

Lu Yijian laughed: "This is a common problem for people who came out of prison! It's just a minor problem, it will be cured tomorrow. But if you come to see me now, can your body eat and eat?"

Chen Yuan did not hide it: "If you don't hide it from the Prime Minister, what I want to do most now is to find a bed to sleep, and don't care about anything or say anything."

Seeing that he was standing, Lu Yijian shook his body a little, and immediately stepped forward and patted Chen Yuan on the shoulder: "Sit down, I know you must be anxious, what will the emperor make for you?"

Chen Yuan nodded: "Yes, the villain is too impulsive this time. Prime Minister, I really don't know what happened that night, but I actually caused such a thing. I also treated the Prime Minister with great efforts. Today I came to thank the Prime Minister for his special efforts."

Lu Yijian had a smile on his face, and walked back to the desk, and picked up the words he had just written: "Shimei, look, this is your song "Shuitu Songtou". Do you see anything from this word?"

Chen Yuan's eyes were a little blurred now and he couldn't concentrate. After watching for a while, he realized: "The imitation of the prime minister seems to be the font of the current saint."

Chen Yuan, the name of Renzong, had been observed specifically, and it was when he named the villa. However, Renzong was good at writing, even if he had only observed it once, Chen Yuan remembered it very clearly.

Lu Yijian laughed and said, "It's the emperor's font. The emperor has written your poem several times. Shimei knows it. If it weren't for your good writing and it was introduced into the emperor's ears, the emperor wouldn't pay attention to you at all. Even if I have the intention to help you, I have no way to start."

Even though Chen Yuan was very thick-skinned, he still felt a little embarrassed and sorry to Comrade Xiao Su. Fortunately, he didn't have much strength now, so he didn't blush: "The Prime Minister has been awarded. When I was writing this poem, I just wanted to attract others' attention. The villain thought it would cause a sensation, but he never thought that the emperor would notice it."

Lu Yijian nodded: "Good, the writing is really good. Moreover, when the emperor saw you twice, his performance also satisfies him. Don't worry."

Chen Yuan cursed in his heart. This sentence was equivalent to not saying it. He also knew that the emperor was satisfied with him, but it was not him who was suing him. Who would be able to let go of this matter?

"Does the Prime Minister know the details? Please also reveal some, the villain is really nervous."

Lu Yijian was a little hesitant. He didn't want to tell Chen Yuan because he knew that Chen Yuan was unwilling to be an official. If he had said it now, would this kid think of other ways to shirk it? After waiting for a while, Lu Yijian sighed: "Shimei, since you can't rest assured, I'll tell you. It's just that before I said that, I want to know what you planned for your Jurchen servants? They are all in the prison now. If you don't save them, they will pay their lives for those Dangxiang people."

Chen Yuan really answered this question very simply: "If I had the chance, I would definitely rescue them all, but I couldn't protect myself now. I was determined to save them, but I didn't know how to do it."

Lu Yijian looked at Chen Yuan and smiled strangely: "There are two ways. The first is that you will take all the charges, so that they can live."

Chen Yuan waved his hand quickly: "The Prime Minister said the second one. Do you know who I am? I look at a hero like this, but I won't do it."

Lu Yijian laughed even happier: "Then you only have one way left. The emperor is going to let you negotiate with Yelu Niegulu and Zhang Yuan. As long as you can suppress Zhang Yuan at the negotiating table and let him not pursue the matter, I think the emperor will also follow the flow. After all, many people in Bianjing sympathize with you."

Chen Yuan was shocked: "The emperor asked me to negotiate? How is that possible!?"

He couldn't believe Lu Yijian's words at all, but looking at Lu Yijian's expression didn't seem to be lying. Lu Yijian didn't say anything, nor did he look at Chen Yuan, lowered his head and picked up the teacup and took a few sips slowly.

Chen Yuan was in a state of great excitement. His first reaction was that this matter was impossible! But Lu Yijian's attitude was like telling him that this matter was true. His second reaction was not to do it! He didn't want to be an official, he really didn't want to be an official! But then he thought that if he didn't do it, not only would he not be able to save Tie Anli, Su Tu and others, but even Chen Yuan himself, as Renzong said, was forbidden to be punished, but he could not escape the crime of death!

Besides, Renzong is the emperor, if he speaks and refuses him again, he will be very unhappy! So after thinking for a long time, Chen Yuan finally said: "Prime Minister, when will the emperor let me go?"

Lu Yijian was very happy, but still had a slight smile on his face: "When Yelu Niegulu does not accept Song Qi's threat, the emperor will hold a three-party negotiation as you said. At that time, you will represent the Song Dynasty."

Chen Yuan understood that Song Renzong must have been moved by himself. He is just waiting to see if Yelu Niegulu is as he said.
