- Chapter 350: [Gambler]
"Lu Dongzan comes to see His Majesty, His Highness!" Lu Dongzan saluted.
After Lao Li and Li Chengqian excused themselves, Li Chengqian asked him: "After making a bet with the Prime Minister yesterday, are you here to repay the bet today, right?"
"Exactly."
Lu Dongzan replied.
Li Chengqian said: "This bet naturally requires a notary, so I asked the Prime Minister to come here because I want my father to be our notary."
Lu Dongzan didn't expect that Li Chengqian had such a plan. He couldn't help but be stunned, and then said in embarrassment: "It is my honor to ask His Majesty the Great Tang Dynasty to be a notary public! I will never dare to do anything that does not admit it. Even if you lose, you will be willing to admit defeat!"
Li Chengqian and Lao Li both nodded.
Lu Dongzan said: "Your Highness, let's go to the East Palace to count the money brought by the minister!"
Lu Dongzan¡¯s words were a bit off, as if he had some personal relationship with Li Chengqian. Li Chengqian couldn't let Old Li misunderstand, and said: "Prime Minister, no need, just bring everything in here, we can just count it here!"
"Uh" Lu Dongzan was a little embarrassed.
Li Chengqian waved his hand and said, "That's it. Since it's a bet, what can't be disclosed?"
Lu Dongzan looked at Li Chengqian, and finally nodded helplessly and said: "Okay, all the money is bet outside. Your Majesty, His Highness, and all the prime ministers and generals, please go outside and have a look."
We were here to see the money. Of course everyone was happy. Lao Li walked in the front, followed by Li Chengqian. The prime minister and Uncle Li Xiaogong followed happily.
Two Tibetan soldiers were guarding two cars, one was a flat cart covered with cloth, and the other was a carriage. It looked like it was carrying people. Could it be that Lu Dongzan came in in this car?
After Lu Dongzan arrived here, he asked someone to lift the cloth on the cart, and a smell rushed over.
Li Chengqian and Lao Li quickly took two steps back.
Damn it, the first characteristic of the Tubo people is the strong smells. I really can¡¯t stand it.
After taking two steps back. Li Chengqian felt comfortable, and then he had time to take a look at what was on the carriage. There was animal skin, and he didn't know what kind of animal skin it was. It couldn't be cowhide. Outside the cowhide was a pile of fodder, and then there were a few swords. , there is a box next to the majestic sword.
A dark red box. Very refined.
Lu Dongzan was not afraid of the smell from the trolley and walked over. Opening the box revealed the contents:
A few gold bars, silver jewelry, and a few rubies and sapphires!
Li Chengqian didn¡¯t expect that Lu Dongzan would carry so many treasures with him. He was really a rich man. Li Chengqian planned to let Lao Li, oh no, it would be more suitable for Lao Cheng to take people to Tubo to snatch them!
"Uh, Prime Minister. Are these your bets?" Li Chengqian said excitedly.
"Yes, Your Highness!" Lu Dongzan replied.
Li Chengqian asked: "How much are the things here worth?"
"It also depends on how much they are worth in Chang'an!" Lu Dongzan said.
Li Chengqian and Lao Li looked at each other, and then they both felt that Lu Dongzan was a person who would not suffer losses. Foreign goods can cost several times more when shipped to Chang'an, so the goods on the carriage should still be priced according to Chang'an. You won't suffer any loss.
Old Li made the decision and said, "Then let the experts in the palace do the math for you. Can you rest assured?"
"Of course!" Lu Dongzan bowed his hands.
Lao Li gave an order to a eunuch, and the eunuch ran away.
After a while, Li Chengqian saw an acquaintance running over.
Maitreya!
Maitreya Buddha ran over. He bowed to Lao Li and Li Chengqian, and then after listening to Lao Li's words, he went to Lu Dongzan's carriage and counted the things on Lu Dongzan's carriage.
Seeing that Maitreya Buddha knows so many things, gems and gold are particularly easy to calculate, and he can also tell the details of those animal skins. What¡¯s even more amazing is that Maitreya Buddha actually said that the pile of fodder is a pile of precious herbs. If he hadn't been sure that Maitreya Buddha was from here, Li Chengqian would have said that Maitreya Buddha was working with Lu Dongzan to trick Li Chengqian!
Every time Maitreya Buddha mentioned something, he quoted a price. Sometimes Ludongzan nodded and agreed, and sometimes he negotiated a price with Maitreya Buddha. Finally, everything was added up little by little. After getting up, I calculated the total price.
935 strings.
After Maitreya Buddha finished calculating these things, he did not move away, and looked at the carriage with bright eyes.
Lao Li¡¯s gaze alsoLooking at the carriage like this.
"Prime Minister of Tubo, what kind of treasures are you carrying in this carriage? Why don't you show them out and count them together!"
Maitreya Buddha asked with bright eyes.
"Well, these are some maids, they are" Lu Dongzan glanced at Li Chengqian resentfully, and then said, "They are here to make up the numbers."
Maid?
Li Chengqian didn¡¯t understand, but when he saw Lu Dongzan shouting, three girls came out of the carriage. After they bowed respectfully to everyone, they stood aside.
Only then did Li Chengqian realize that this Lu Dongzan actually wanted to gamble with people as if they were objects!
Damn it, you piece of shit with no human rights!
¡°Also, it¡¯s your business to bet on people, why do you always look at me with resentful eyes?
Li Chengqian really couldn¡¯t understand that Lu Dongzan¡¯s eyes were always green.
And if Li Chengqianjing could understand his gaze, he would have heard: Who told you not to let me go to the East Palace to show you my goods? In this way, the three women like me can keep your things and prevent them from being used by others. I discovered it, and now that it's been made public, I have no choice but to take it as a bet.
"Haha, okay, okay" Lao Li laughed with a laugh that all men understand.
Li Chengqian secretly rolled his eyes at Lao Li, "Don't be so careless about your image when you see a foreign girl. You are also an emperor after all!"
Maitreya Buddha walked up to the three Tibetan girls, looked them up and down a few times, and then turned them around, as if he wanted to see through their whole bodies.
Li Chengqian thought to himself, it¡¯s good to know that Maitreya Buddha is a eunuch, otherwise, most people would think that Maitreya Buddha is a regular customer of a brothel!
After reading it, Maitreya Buddha came back, raised three fingers and said, "Three more strings."
Three passes?
That¡¯s what a girl is like.
This person is really mean!
"This is impossible, how can there be so few!" Lu Dongzan didn't think his people could be sold at such a low price, so he objected loudly.
Maitreya Buddha was not anxious at all and asked: "Then how much do you want?"
"Fifty guans per person!" Lu Dongzan said distressedly.
These three are good goods, but he managed to bring them from Tubo. He wants to use them if he encounters any difficulties in this diplomacy. If there are no difficulties, then he will have to use them before leaving. Use it, but I didn¡¯t expect it to be used for gambling now.
Of course, his original intention was not to gamble, but he turned to gambling after meeting the prince who acted unreasonably. - Didn't finish reading?
