    Chapter 789: [Precious Seed]

    ¡­¡­

    Within 50,000 guan, you have to pay 10% of the boarding fee.

    The return shipping fee is also covered by 10% of the 100,000 yuan.

    ¡°For example, the Wang family now wants to invest 90,000 guan, but he cunningly divides it into two parts, so one part is 50,000 guan and the other is 40,000 guan, all of which only pay 10% of the boarding fee.  It even took a big advantage in the return shipping fee.

    If according to the original regulations, the Wang family's money is put together, it will cost 10% of the 50,000 guan, and the other 40,000 guan will be added to the 2% boarding fee.

    You will suffer a big loss on the return shipping fee.

    ? It is assumed here that the profit of the maritime merchant is twice the cost.

    ¡°Then the Wang family¡¯s money put together would make 180,000 yuan.  The return ship fee will be deducted by 10% of the 100,000 guan, and 4% of the 80,000 guan will be deducted.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? off.  Wang Ji's other 40,000 guan earned 80,000 guan, which was also within 100,000 guan.

    With this comparison, whether it is the boarding fee or the return fee, the investment plan divided into two is the most cost-effective.

    This Wang family is really a family that knows how to do business!

    Li Chengqian sighed with emotion.

    Last time, I just told him the conditions, and the Wang family immediately prepared this plan. It was amazing.

    However, Li Chengqian knew that the queen set the conditions for superimposing commissions, which was to limit the money contributed by the family to a certain amount. If the family is willing to give more money to the queen, then let¡¯s do it!

    Now Wang Ji is going to use this method to break the constraints set by the queen!

    But Wang Ji, don¡¯t be too happy!

    " Just like Wang Ji is begging Li Chengqian to agree in a low voice now, no matter how wonderful his method is.  What Li Chengqian promised him before was only a share of the Wang family.  Now that Wang Ji wants to add one share, he must ask Li Chengqian for permission again.  Of course, there is also the consent of the queen behind.

    "Brother Wang Ji, you are making things difficult for me!" Li Chengqian put down his cup and put his hands on the table, with a slightly dissatisfied expression on his face.

    Wang Ji¡¯s self-cultivation is beyond words. It is possible to be indifferent to favors and humiliations, but what he has learned is more about being a human being.  Powerful people like Li Chengqian must satisfy their dominant desires.  Just as he showed dissatisfaction now, Wang Ji would show fear, making Li Chengqian feel his presence.

    Li Chengqian didn¡¯t expect what was behind Wang Ji¡¯s expression.  There are so many twists and turns.

    His dissatisfaction was also pretended. He and Wang Ji only had an interest relationship, and there was nothing to be angry about.

    Li Chengqian continued: "Before you came to me, it was out of friendship that I helped you ask my mother. Now my mother has agreed, and you are just pushing the envelope and offering to buy another share."  .Your behavior makes me suspect that you are taking advantage of the contract. If I ask my mother for your request, what will happen to my mother? If she gets angry then, give the Wang family's share.  If it¡¯s cancelled, I¡¯m afraid it¡¯s all in vain!¡±

    At this time, Wang Ji was a little shaken, indeed.  As Li Chengqian said, such an obvious action is easy to spot.  If the queen is made angry, then the Wang family will not be able to live with it.

    But Wang Ji still has a sense of adventure.

    He has already told this matter.  If he cancels it casually, his impression in front of Li Chengqian will be weak in the future.  He has become a person who talks casually.  Can such a person be trusted?

    ¡°No, Wang Ji himself never trusts people who talk casually like this.

    In addition to being adventurous, Wang Ji also has an exquisite ability to handle things!

    He bowed his hands to Li Chengqian and apologized: "Your Highness, please don't be angry. This is indeed Wang Ji's fault. He didn't think more about His Highness and the Queen."

    He then showed a bitter look on his face and said: "But what Wang Ji said is not a lie. The relationships in my Wang family are too complicated, and Wang Ji also has various difficulties. If he doesn't seek some benefits for himself, he will  There is no way to survive. I have no choice. If I don¡¯t do this, I might be able to talk to His Highness now, but I won¡¯t be able to sit here next time!¡±

    He clasped his fists again, stared deeply at Li Chengqian, and begged: "I hope your highness will have the beauty of an adult!"

    Li Chengqian doesn¡¯t care about his life or death.

    He said perfunctorily: "I can understand you, but I can't make the decision on this matter. I need to ask my mother before I reply to you."

    Wang Ji had a look of surprise on his face and quickly kowtowed in thanks!

      "In order to thank His Highness for your help, Wang Ji has a treasure for Your Highness to share!" After Wang Ji finished speaking, he called out softly.

    The door opened, and a servant came in, holding a plate in his hand, looking cautious.

    When Li Chengqian heard the words "treasure", he knew that Wang Ji was going to bribe him!

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? bribing

    I really want to see what kind of treasure Wang Ji is going to give me.

    Wang Ji took the servant's plate and placed it in front of Li Chengqian.

    Li Chengqian was looking forward to it, but he had to pretend to be calm so as not to lose his identity as the prince.

    There was a red cover on the plate. Wang Ji looked like a bridegroom and opened the red cover, revealing an upside-down bronze lid inside.

    After he handed the red cover to the servant, he picked up the bronze cover and found a crystal jade bowl inside!

    The light yellow jade bowl is exquisite and flawless. There is a delicate and wonderful lid on the bowl, which makes people want to hug it when they see it!

    It¡¯s so beautiful!

    Wang Ji picked up the yellow jade bowl and handed it to Li Chengqian.

    Li Chengqian¡¯s heart beat a little excitedly.

    This bowl is so beautiful!

    Just when he was about to reach out to take it, Wang Ji stretched out his other hand, took the bowl lid, and opened the bowl lid.

    Li Chengqian was very surprised by his actions, but then he saw a small amount of black stuff inside the bowl!

    Well?

    What kind of thing is packed in such a beautiful bowl?

    Li Chengqian took a closer look and found that the bowl contained something like a small pile of black sesame seeds!

    Why are sesame seeds packed in such precious jade bowls?

    Li Chengqian couldn't help but become curious.

    Looking at Wang Ji, Wang Ji had a somewhat complacent expression on his face.

    At this time, Wang Ji explained to Li Chengqian: "Your Highness, Wang Ji heard that you love all kinds of plants, especially fresh and unavailable plants, and you like them even more. So Wang Ji heard that a shopkeeper who had just returned from the ship got a plant.  A small packet of fire fruit seeds, specially purchased for a large sum of money as a gift to His Highness!"

    Fire fruit?  ?  ?  ?  ?

    Wang Ji continued: "I heard that this fire fruit came from the far north. But no one can grow this kind of fire. Wang Ji thought of His Highness's great power, and thought that he might be able to grow this kind of fire.  Something magical!¡±

    After hearing this, Li Chengqian took his jade bowl and looked at the seeds inside.

    The seeds are indeed full and full of good seeds.

    ¡°But it looked like sesame seeds, and he actually used sesame seeds to play tricks on himself.

    It is said that sesame is produced in India or Africa, and was later introduced to China when Zhang Qian of the Western Han Dynasty passed through the Western Regions. However, sesame is now scientifically proven to originate from the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau in China.  Ancient sesame seeds were found in the Qianshanyang Neolithic site in Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province and the Shuitianfan prehistoric site in Hangzhou, confirming that China is also the hometown of sesame.

    So now there is sesame in the Tang Dynasty. If Wang Ji uses this thing to play tricks on the prince, he will be treating him as a fool!

    Li Chengqian thought to himself, holding the black sesame seeds in his hands and looking at them, but he always felt that these sesame seeds were a bit small.

    And if it¡¯s sesame, how did you come up with the strange name of fire fruit?

    "Isn't this sesame? How do you call it fire fruit?" Li Chengqian asked bluntly.

    However, Wang Ji did not see the embarrassment on his face, but explained seriously: "This Wang Ji doesn't understand either, because Wang Ji has never seen what this thing looks like after it is grown. I only heard that it was brought back."  The seller of fire fruit seeds said that the fire fruit is like a fairy fruit. It looks like a burning flame. Cut open the red skin and inside are white flesh and tiny black seeds. Take a bite and it will be sweet, tender and smooth.  It¡¯s so delicious, it can only be found in heaven, how can you only taste it in the world!¡±

    He said it so much that he was intoxicated!

    Then he said regretfully: "It's a pity that the fire fruit cannot be grown, and Wang Ji cannot eat such fairy fruit!"

    But Li Chengqian was imagining the fire fruit he was talking about. Why did he feel like he had seen this thing before?

    The first thing to make sure is that this thing must not be sesame.  These seeds are inside the pulp, but this is not the case with sesame seeds.

    At this time, Wang Ji waved to the servant, and the servant took out a cloth bag.

    Wang Ji opened it and took out a piece of animal skin paper inside!

    When you open it, there are pictures inside.

    Li Chengqian looked at it curiously. It was a picture of a fruit. It was a picture of burnt marks on the animal skin.?

    He took it and took a look. After looking at it for a while, he almost screamed.

    His father¡¯s, isn¡¯t this dragon fruit?

    ? Dragon fruit is native to Central America.

    What Wang Ji mentioned just now looks like fire, with white flesh and sesame seeds inside, which are the characteristics of dragon fruit.

    Li Chengqian couldn¡¯t figure it out after thinking about it for a long time.

    ¡°And dragon fruit is a tropical or subtropical plant. If you try to grow it in Chang¡¯an, of course you won¡¯t be able to grow it.

    Although I feel ashamed that these businessmen who came back from outside with new species don¡¯t even know where to plant what plants.  But Li Chengqian wanted to thank these people. He didn't expect that dragon fruit, which was the favorite food of later generations, could be seen in the Tang Dynasty. I was really excited.

    If it could be planted, Li Chengqian couldn't help but tremble when he thought about it.

    Seeing this great gift from Wang Ji, Li Chengqian couldn't help but reconsider his request.

    "But he is a little bit strange about this Wang Ji, do you know how to deal with people and the world?"

    When you want to ask someone for help, you should give the gift first and then talk about what you want to do, so that the person being bribed can think about it.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out of the way first to embarrass others and then give gifts, it would be very embarrassing to change your words!
