Chapter 113: Stealing chicken will not lose rice

   Chapter 113

  Cheng Ling flipped through the ledger under the lights.

   Among the supplies of the Ran's caravan, the most precious thing is of course not corn, which can only be said to be in large quantities, followed by carved hummus, which is often only eaten by nobles.

   Ledger records, Carving Humi: One hundred stones!

   Don't look at the fact that carved humi is only a hundred stones, but if it is converted into money and silk, it must be worth much more than a thousand stones of corn.

  Cheng Ling didn't pay much attention to this carved Humi, and her eyes quickly continued to sweep down.

  The following materials also include taro, soybeans, pockmarks, and other common staple foods nowadays.

   In addition, there are also a batch of special products such as silk, satin and brocade from the southern city. Among them, Zhuang Hua Jin and Kesi are especially precious.

   One inch of silk is one inch of gold, this is the top luxury that nobles will be eager to pursue!

   No wonder Ran Wenji was unwilling to take out these supplies and distribute them to the government.

   Then the number of pearls in the South China Sea - the number is written on the ledger, there is no specific number at all.

   Seeing this, Cheng Ling understood. Although Ran Wenji expressed that he would keep his promise and share 20% of the supplies with Cheng Ling, he still kept some of the most precious supplies.

  This ledger, don’t ask, it must not be the entire ledger of the caravan. Ran Wenji must have more detailed ledgers.

  Cheng Ling's eyes fell on the "pearls" and did not move for a while.

   She didn't look up, but she could feel that Ran Wenji was also staring at her at this time—Ran Wenji was nervous!

   What is he nervous about? He was afraid that Cheng Ling would ask about his pearls?

  Cheng Ling chuckled lightly, and was about to close the ledger when he suddenly saw this sentence at the end of the ledger: New supplies, ten stones from the southeast, donated by Wyeth.

   The southeast millet!

   I don't know if there is any special feeling, in short, when his eyes swept over here, Cheng Ling's heart suddenly jumped.

   The millet of the southeast, what is the millet of the southeast? How is it different from ordinary corn?

  Cheng Ling suppressed his heartbeat and looked up at Ran Wenji again.

   Ran Wenji smiled very standard and humble under the light.

Cheng Ling's fingers slid on the ledger, she slid over the carved humi, Ran Wenji was unmoved, she slid over the South Sea Pearl, Ran Wenji's brows jumped slightly, she slid over the kesi, Ran Wenji's smile became wider …

  In the end, Cheng Ling's fingers still stopped on the top of the corn.

  Cheng Ling said: "Don't be afraid of Brother Ran's jokes, he is a rude person and can't convert the value of other things, only food."

   Ran Wenji smiled and said, "Brother Cheng is a talented person, but don't be humble."

  Cheng Lingdao: "The 20% reward that Brother Ran promised at the beginning refers to 20% of the total materials, right?"

   Ran Wenji smiled: "Of course, a gentleman can never be wrong."

  Cheng Ling also smiled: "But Brother Ran, don't worry, I'm not an insatiable greedy person, I don't want pearls and silks."

  Ran Wenji:…

   He paused, his expression slightly relaxed.

  Cheng Ling went on to say: "I don't want pearl silk, so I want 40% of the corn, which is not too much."

   This is really not too much, Ran Wenji immediately said: "It should be, it should be, not too much, not too much."

  Cheng Ling also said: "I want 50% of the southeast millet."

   Regarding the southeast corn, Ran Wenji said cheerfully: "Brother Cheng likes it, just take it all, it's only ten stone rice in total, and it will be divided into 50%!"

  Cheng Ling said: "Yes, there are only ten stones in total. Since the amount is small, it is rare. Brother Ran, are you sure you won't keep some?"

   Ran Wenji laughed and said: "To tell the truth, Brother Cheng, this millet in the southeast is just a mysterious name. In fact, compared with ordinary millet, it is not much better, and it is not as far as carving hummus."

  Cheng Ling said: "Oh? That's it."

Ran Wenji showed extra sincerity at this time, and he said with a very thoughtful look to Cheng Ling: "Give 40% of the millet to Brother Cheng, and the millet from the southeast can also be given to Brother Cheng, but if Brother Cheng only needs these, it will be too much. Still at a loss."

  Cheng Ling smiled and said, "Then Brother Ran, what more do you want me to do?"

   Ran Wenji said: "It's hot in summer now, this azure gauze is very cool, why don't Brother Cheng choose some to wear?"

  The azure yarn belongs to the category of silk. It is not as precious as damask and brocade silk, but it is better than dyeing evenly and has a light texture.

   Compared with the coarse silk that Cheng Ling once bought, azure yarn is really a valuable fabric, and ordinary wealthy households may not be able to climb high, so Ran Wenji proposed azure yarn to make up for it.

  Cheng Ling responded directly this time, and said: "Tianqingsha, I will take five horses, plus those millets and southeast millets, Brother Ran, this transaction between you and me will be considered clear."

   Ran Wenji hurriedly said: "This transaction is considered to be clear, but the friendship between you and me cannot be clear. Brother Cheng, there is a fate in the rivers and lakes, and our friend will have to do it for a long time."

  Cheng Ling laughed: "As long as Brother Ran has a heart, I, Cheng, have no friends that I can't make!"

After    finished speaking, he bowed his hands to Ran Wenji.

   Ran Wenji hurriedly handed back the salute and bent his waist.

  Cheng Ling said goodbye and left. As for the promised supplies, Ran Wenji will send a car directly to Cheng's house later.

   This time, the seemingly invisible confrontation ended with Cheng Ling's rewarding result.

   As for whether Ran Wenji was at a loss... After Cheng Ling left, a person walked out from the back of the banquet hall, but she was a beautiful girl in her 28th year.

   She has a high ponytail, a jade crown, and arrow sleeves that cross the collar. She is actually dressed in Hu clothing, which is very rare in Qi.

   The girl turned out from behind the screen, her eyes were dripping, she ran to Ran Wenji, and she shouted, "Dad!"

Then he said like a cannonball: "That person is Yu Shura? Isn't the account book you gave him too real? You don't need to tell him about Pearl Kesi! If you don't tell him, he won't know, and he doesn't know about Pearl and Kesi. Si, how could he be so embarrassed to ask you for 40% of the corn?"

   Ran Wenji looked at her with a particularly happy and tender look, and said with a smile, "Hao Yan'er, you must underestimate him."

After speaking, Ran Wenji sighed again and said: "After Ran Ming came back, he told me about his performance after saving people. He has known all the people in your uncle Ming's caravan, you really think him Do you have any idea of ​​what goods are in the caravan?"

   Ran Yanran's eyes were sparkling, like a pool of water blown by the spring breeze.

   She tilted her head and said, "Father, since you think he is very powerful, why did you test him before?"

Why? That is naturally unwilling, it is the nature of the businessman at work!

  If Cheng Ling accepts the dancer and splits the account later, would he be embarrassed to pay 20%?

   Maybe if she was thinner-skinned and a little more heroic as a young hero, she would not want anything at all?

But Ran Wenji couldn't say that, he immediately laughed dryly and said, "Hey, this man, he has a bit of a man's nature. Isn't it also kind of me, I'll do what I want. I'm thinking of dating this young hero. a deeper friend..."

   "And then, Dad, are you stealing chickens without losing rice?"

  Ran Wenji:…
