Traveling through ancient times: daily life on the run
Chapter 86: King Rui of the Eight Trigrams
Several guests secretly asked Qin Bingrui whether he would come tomorrow.
Qin Bingrui rolled his eyes: "Are you guys free?"
Then he thought, if it really doesn't work out, he could just go and tell stories to make money. He would just have to pay ten taels of silver to enter the venue, and receive a hundred people every day and tell stories for two hours, making a thousand taels. If he continued to tell stories for a month or so, the money would come in like a ton.
However, this charging standard needs to be promoted by rich people, as ordinary people cannot afford it.
Prince Rui saw through his thoughts and said with a smile, "If you are free, you can come to Prince Rui's mansion every day and talk for two hours. I will pay you."
Anyway, his princess can make money, so spending a few thousand taels to listen to stories is nothing.
"As long as there's money, there's no problem!"
Qin Bingrui agreed easily. He hadn't expected money to be so easy to earn, but what did they need the money for? It was to achieve great things.
"That's a deal. I'll send someone to get the banknotes for you later."
After saying this, he looked at Luo Yu again and said, "This young lady is very talented. Do you have any request for me?"
"I bought a building yesterday, right on Fenghuang Street in West City."
"Are you hoping to get my help so that you can run your business smoothly?"
His princess is also a first-class business genius, but even so, she doesn't dare to buy a building on Fenghuang Street to challenge the Bai family's assets. This girl is really overestimating her own abilities.
"No, I hope His Royal Highness Prince Rui can invest in my business model. You don't need to pay any money, just cooperate with me."
“Buy shares???”
"Your Highness, let's eat first and then talk business. There's still a long way to go, so there's no need to rush."
Qin Bingrui felt dizzy and was about to curse if he didn't eat.
"it is good."
Prince Rui is an interesting person. Whenever he admires talented people, he becomes extremely easy-going.
These two girls in front of me may really be rare talents. I wonder if I can use the power of money to dig them out from King Ning?
At lunch, I didn't see the princess herself.
After lunch, King Rui wanted to keep the two girls to continue talking about shareholding. Although he didn't understand the literal meaning, it was really interesting to listen to the two girls talk.
Who would have thought that the frail white lady would actually buy a house on Phoenix Street?
Wait, her last name is also Bai. Could she be from the Bai family in Muzhou City?
"Miss Bai, you bought the building on Fenghuang Street, and Fenghuang Street is all owned by the Bai family. Are you and the Bai family related?"
"Your Highness, this is a long story."
Explain it this way and that way.
Prince Rui's brow furrowed deeper and deeper. Of course he knew about the Fang family's affairs, but the business world was like a battlefield. As long as human lives were not at stake, victory or defeat was a common occurrence in business. Miss Bai followed her mother Fang to join the Fang family, but she wanted to deal with the Bai family on her own?
"So, Miss Bai, you want me to be your strong backing to deal with the Bai family? Although I'm not very good at business, my wife said that the Bai family's business strength cannot be easily broken. The people behind them are not someone I can confront head-on."
Ever since Luo Yu learned that the Bai family was able to squeeze out the Rui Wang Mansion in Liangzhou City, he began to suspect that the person behind the Bai family might have considerable authority.
Besides the emperor, isn’t the next person the queen?
But she didn't ask, she just smiled and said, "I have never thought of dealing with the Bai family. As His Royal Highness Prince Rui said, my own strength is just like an egg hitting a stone."
"Oh, it seems you are quite self-aware. Then why did you buy that building?"
The curious heart of King Rui made him want to find out more.
"Because I only want to benefit the people, to do my best to do a good deed for them. But I am unknown and hopeless, and even if I do this, I am afraid that unjust people will doubt my intentions.
I have also heard that His Royal Highness Prince Rui is well-versed in history and is highly erudite and talented, and that he values the artistic talents of his subjects. This is exactly what I intend to do. Therefore, I intend to use His Royal Highness Prince Rui's name to do this, as it will only benefit His Royal Highness and will not cause any harm.
"Oh, what kind of business are you planning? Since it's related to benefiting the people and also relates to my love of literature, can it bring benefits to me?"
I've heard some flattery that was quite mellow, but I've never heard one that was so unrealistic and forceful.
Although what she said sounded nice and she herself felt comfortable listening to it, this matter was neither big nor small, and he couldn't fall into the trap all at once. Maybe it was a trick that King Ning deliberately used to get his money?
"To your Highness, Prince Rui, I have gone through countless hardships along the way and have come to realize that the only way out for ordinary people is to study and gain a good reputation. Whether it is doing business or having a fortune, if something goes wrong, it will all be gone in the blink of an eye. It is a pity that my wishes are in vain, but I am powerless to do anything for my deceased grandparents, my father who passed away young, and the broken Bai family.
Originally, the girl just wanted to devote herself to raising her young brother to be a support, but she didn't expect to meet Miss Qin who supported her all the way.
For her enthusiastic help and helping me buy the building on Fenghuang Street, I thought that if everyone could meet a kind-hearted person in a tragic situation and get support, if everyone could control their own destiny instead of becoming weak and helpless once they lost their shelter, perhaps there would not be so many innocent people sacrificed in this world.
I hope everyone can learn and become wise. Not everyone will become a good person, but won't there be less evil in the world? My mother, my brother, and I won't have to worry about being framed or hunted down.
If everyone reads, then naturally there will be more outstanding talents contributing to the court and becoming pillars of society. This can also be considered as indirectly alleviating the emperor's worries, right?"
Having said so much, there is not a single word that expresses the intention to kill the Bai family.
Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness Prince Rui was so moved that he almost burst into tears.
"So, what kind of big business is Miss Bai planning to do? A business that doesn't make money but can make everyone a pillar of society?"
A gentle and pleasant female voice came from outside the main hall. It was no wonder that it was the princess of King Rui who had arrived.
Qin Bingrui's mouth twitched. Damn it, why did she only half-listen? When did she say this business wasn't profitable? When did she say everyone could become a pillar of society?
