Chapter 251 The Generous Ouyang Family
Chapter 251 The Generous Ouyang Family
"Princess, this is terrible, this is terrible. The wasteland in the south of the city has come, and the Ouyang family will take half of the wasteland. I cannot make the decision, so you have to decide on this matter." Lingyi reported with his head hung, somewhat frustrated.
That was tens of millions of taels of silver, not a small amount. Lingyi naturally didn't dare to make a decision. He had never seen so much silver in his life. Thinking about himself, he felt really frustrated.
Even Yun Yuxi was shocked. Half of the land was wasteland. This showed that the Ouyang family were indeed gamblers. It also showed that the Ouyang family knew the value of the land. However, Yun Yuxi was not going to agree to the Ouyang family just like that.
"Lingyi, tell the people of the Ouyang family that we will discuss the details at Bazhenlou tonight. I will discuss the specific cooperation method with the prince first. After all, why should we sell so much land to the Ouyang family? Remember not to show them any flaws. The construction of our south city will begin the day after tomorrow, and we cannot afford to be careless."
"As you command," Lingyi turned around and left. After all, Ouyang Linyun was still waiting!
Yun Yuxi thought to herself: The Ouyang family is such a bold gambler that they dare to pay such a high price to buy half of the wasteland. They must have known the value of these lands.
But she would not let the Ouyang family succeed easily. She would discuss the details of the cooperation with Ouyang Linyun tonight and tell him that she needed time to discuss it with the prince. After all, the transaction of these lands was not a trivial matter.
At the same time, she also had to remind the Ouyang family that the construction project in the south of the city would officially start the day after tomorrow and there must be no mistakes.
After Lingyi left, Yun Yuxi thought about how to negotiate with the Ouyang family. She already had some plans in mind, but she still needed to discuss further with the prince.
She knew that this transaction not only involved huge wealth, but also the future development of the south city, so it must be treated with caution.
In the study, Yan Wuque was also shocked when listening to Yun Yuxi's narration. The Ouyang family had already made a big investment in the Lantern Festival. He didn't expect that the Ouyang family would make such a big investment in the construction of the south city.
The couple discussed the plan, and finally Yan Wuque and Yun Yuxi felt that the construction of the south city would cost an inestimable amount of money. The Ouyang family could indeed solve the problem of money to a large extent, but the initiative must be in their own hands. The Ouyang family couldn't even think about taking over half of the south city.
"Your Highness, we will go to Bazhenlou tonight. Once we have finalized the plan, we can just send someone. I heard that the Ouyang family has been trying to find out who will be at the Lantern Festival that day. It is not appropriate to reveal our identities at the moment. It is very dangerous for us."
"That's true. After all, the fact that my leg has recovered cannot be made known to others yet. Don't worry about this matter. Leave the plan to Zero One."
Soon, Yun Yuxi drew up a plan in Yan Wuque's study and asked someone to hand it over to Lingyi. In fact, the wasteland that the Ouyang family finally got was only one-third of half of the wasteland. If they could develop it and make a profit, the Ouyang family could ensure its prosperity for a hundred years.
Ouyang Linfeng was somewhat disappointed when he heard Lingyi's reply. After all, he had been thinking about Chengnan for a long time. However, he had no right to take Chengnan, and it was even more impossible to convince Huangdi. After all, his Ouyang family was just a merchant.
Ouyang Linfeng learned that the south of the city was being developed by the Prince Regent's Palace, and he wanted to get involved, so he made a big move. In fact, he also wanted to attract the attention of the Prince Regent's Palace and get in touch with Yan Wuque. Besides, if the south of the city was developed, his Ouyang family would make a profit.
When he learned about the Regent Princess's plan, he became more determined to get involved. He was a businessman with a keen eye for investment, and he saw an unprecedented grand plan.
Ouyang Linyun's mind was as clear as a mirror. He knew very well that no matter how much money he paid, the Regent's Palace would not give him half of the wasteland, because the planning of the south city was handled by the Regent Princess. He really couldn't think of a more avant-garde idea than Yun Yuxi's.
So, Ouyang Linyun waved his hand and directly booked the entire Bazhenlou! Such a generous move shocked the shopkeeper so much that he gasped.
The shopkeeper was like a pug, nodding and fawning to Ouyang Linyun, running around to serve him, fearing that any mistake would anger the God of Wealth.
Speaking of Bazhenlou, it is the largest restaurant in Kyoto, but few people know who its real owner is. Most people think that Bazhenlou is the property of the royal aristocracy, but in fact, Bazhenlou belongs to the Ouyang family.
Even the shopkeeper of Bazhenlou has never met his boss. Many of the Ouyang family's businesses are highly confidential. If not, how could they become the richest man in Kyoto?
Ouyang Linyun was looking forward to meeting the imaginative Yun Yuxi, but he was disappointed to see Lingyi instead of other people from the palace.
"Master Ouyang, sorry for keeping you waiting. I have brought a plan. Please take a look at it." After saying that, Lingyi handed over the plan of Yun Yuxi and his wife.
Ouyang Linfeng took it, but did not rush to open it to check. Instead, he said calmly: "Why are you here in the palace, brother? I would like to witness the glory of the princess. She is able to plan the construction of the south of the city. The princess is really extraordinary."
"Master Ouyang, thank you for your praise. Our princess is indeed very powerful. It's just that not everyone can see her. Master, you should take a look at the plan. The princess has already prepared it." Ling Yi replied with a wry smile, and his words were full of admiration for Yun Yuxi.
After reading the plan, Ouyang Linyun couldn't help feeling disappointed. It indeed did not achieve the effect he expected. At the same time, he was shocked that the wealth of his Ouyang family was nothing in the Regent's Palace.
Ouyang Linyun still wanted to fight for some more land, so he said: "Brother Lingyi, could you please talk to the princess again and give the Ouyang family some more land, okay?" His attitude was extremely good, which made Lingyi feel a little embarrassed.
"The princess said that there is only so much land. If the Ouyang family wants to have in-depth cooperation, this is not the right time. There is only so much land in the south of the city right now, and we can talk about other cooperation later. If you think it is appropriate, just sign the document," Lingyi said, and then took out the contract he had prepared in advance.
Ouyang Linyun's mouth twitched. He didn't expect that the other party was not moved by the money at all. If he knew what Yun Yuxi was thinking, he would understand that Yun Yuxi's calculations were much more sophisticated than his.
Soon the two signed the contract, and Lingyi also had a delicious meal. The shopkeeper served the best dishes and the best wines of Bazhenlou. Ouyang Linyun did not look down on Lingyi because of his identity.
He accompanied her with a smile throughout the whole process, and he was clear about how to deal with people in a considerate manner. Although Lingyi was only a servant in the palace, his future power was immeasurable. It had to be said that the Ouyang family's success was indeed based on vision.
The two had a very pleasant conversation and felt that they had met too late!
