Zhang Shixun, a music major graduate, transmigrated to the Great Song Dynasty. Relying on his golden finger and superb talent, he rose rapidly in the capital. Gao Yan Nei became his follower; Li Sh...
Looking at his back, Zhang Shixun felt like banging his head against the wall. If he had known these two guys were so rich, he would have definitely asked for a higher price.
Alas! I don’t blame others, I only blame myself for being too soft-hearted.
After feeling sorry for himself for a while, he changed his mind and thought, they are just a few glass products, and he should be content with selling them for 450,000 strings of cash.
There are a lot of glass balls and quite a few small mirrors.
Zhang Shixun sat on the stone bench and began to think.
By selling your "treasures" in this way, you will soon be able to raise enough starting capital.
After the gunpowder workshop is built, you can consider building a glass workshop. Making glass has no technical difficulty at all.
With glass, a lot of material protection can be provided.
Half an hour later, Gao Yanei and the other man came in from outside almost at the same time.
Gao Yanei was holding a black horse, and He Ji was holding a bow.
"Brother! This black horse is a mount I gave you." Gao Yanei said, "Let's make it clear first, how much does the glass mirror cost? This is a gift for you."
"This 2.3-stone bow is a good bow collected by my father. I'm giving it to you." He Ji said.
Zhang Shixun was a bit bewildered and stood up and said, "You two are giving me things for no reason. What's going on?"
He Ji smiled and said, "We helped you sell things and got a lot of benefits for nothing. We feel bad about it, so we gave you some gifts to express our gratitude."
Gao Yanei said, "We have already discussed it before we came in. I will give you the gift after I buy your treasure. Otherwise, you will be embarrassed to ask for the price."
Zhang Shixun suddenly felt like a villain and wished he could dig a hole and bury himself in it.
If I had known this, I wouldn’t have sold it so expensively.
In the final analysis, Zhang Shixun still classified them as playboys in his heart and did not regard them as friends.
To interact with them is nothing more than to "take advantage of" them.
Feeling a little guilty, he led the black horse to the backyard, put the bow in the study on the second floor, and then returned to the living room in the front.
At this moment, Prince Yun also arrived and was standing in the yard looking around.
"Your Highness Prince Yun has arrived. I'm sorry for not welcoming you in person." Zhang Shixun's face was full of bright smiles when he saw Prince Yun.
"Haha! We are old friends, Shixun, there is no need to be so polite."
Zhang Shixun hurried to the living room and said, "Your Highness, please come and talk in the living room."
After sitting down, Prince Yun asked, "I heard that you exchanged this house from the Gao family for a rare treasure?"
"Who told you this, Prince Yun?" Zhang Shixun asked with a smile.
Zhao Kai glanced at Gao Yanei and said, "Of course I heard it from my father. When General Gao presented the treasure, he described the treasure's origins truthfully and did not hide anything from my father."
"General Gao is truly loyal to his master!"
"That's right. General Gao was one of the first to follow the emperor. His loyalty to him is impeccable." Zhao Kai saw Gao Yanei and the other man still standing, so he said, "When did you two become so well-behaved? Find a seat."
After Gao Yanei sat down, he said to Zhao Kai, "To be honest, Your Highness, He Ji and I arrived earlier and bought a little treasure from Brother Zhang. We wanted to see the treasure before you, but we didn't expect you to come."
Zhao Kai laughed heartily and said, "I was afraid someone would get there first, so I came early. I didn't expect to be a step late... What treasures did you buy? Can I take a look?"
Gao Yanei took out a mirror and held it in both hands to Prince Yun.
Prince Yun took it, looked at the mirror over and over, then stared at himself in the mirror, muttering, "This is indeed a wonderful treasure. I have seen no fewer than a thousand bronze mirrors, but I have never seen one as clear as this. It truly shows every detail."
After saying this, he reluctantly handed the mirror back to Gao Yanei.
Zhang Shixun said, "To be honest, Your Highness, my cousin bought the manor and intends to build several workshops, including a glass workshop. If it is built, it may be possible to imitate this kind of mirror."
"Really!" Prince Yun stood up suddenly.
Zhang Shixun said to He Ji, "Brother He, please let His Highness see the glass ball."
He Ji took out the glass ball as instructed. Prince Yun took it and examined it carefully. He said, "It's rare to find such a transparent glass ball without any dust. What's even more incredible is that there are such beautiful petals inside. How did they do that?"
Zhang Shixun shook his head and said, "I don't know either. Maybe my cousin knows."
"Isn't your cousin mentally ill?" asked Prince Yun.
"Maybe it's because of his brain disease that he keeps coming up with so many wonderful ideas."
"I wonder if your cousin's glass workshop needs a partner?" Prince Yun saw the broad prospects of glass products at a glance. Once transparent glass could be produced, the profits would be staggering.
When Zhang Shixun heard this, he suddenly had an idea. If Prince Yun could join the group, he would be an excellent umbrella of protection and would save a lot of trouble in the future. Why not do it?
Zhang Shixun deliberately paused for a moment before saying, "If Your Highness wishes to participate in the investment, that's not a bad idea."
"What about us?" Gao Yanei and the other two looked at him eagerly.
Zhang Shixun sighed and said, "We are all brothers, and I can't bear to refuse you. However, I have a condition..."
The three of them said in unison: "Please speak!"
"My cousin is fully responsible for the research and production of the workshop. No one else is allowed to interfere, including me."
Gao Yanei blinked and said, "Why is this? We invested money, but we can't do anything about it? This doesn't make sense."
"Can you make glass?" Zhang Shixun asked back.
"Won't!"
"Since you can't make glass, just shut up and wait to make a lot of money."
Prince Yun asked, "Can we, the partners, check the accounts?"
"Of course."
"Okay! It's settled. Count me in!" Prince Yun said.
"Count me in too!" Gao Yanei was unwilling to be left behind.
"Count me in too!" He Ji certainly wouldn't miss the opportunity.
After discussing the details of the equity investment for a while, Zhang Shixun said, "Only my cousin knows how to make glass. Therefore, the results of our discussion today must be approved by him before we can proceed."
"That's what we should do. We'll wait for the result of your discussion." Zhao Kai was very reasonable.
Gao Yanei said, "Brother, let's stop here regarding the shareholding. Don't you have something good to show His Royal Highness Prince Yun? Bring it out."
"That's right, Mr. Zhang, please take it out and let me see it." Zhao Kai remembered the purpose of coming here after being reminded by Gao Yanei.
Zhang Shixun took out the pendant and said, "This is a luminous pendant. It looks even better at night."
"I'll close the living room door." Gao Yanei stood up and quickly closed the door.
The pendant is crystal clear under the fluorescent glow, with green water plants and corals inside, and a small golden fish swimming among them, looking lifelike and vivid.
Zhao Kai held the pendant, his hands trembling slightly, "Oh my God, it's so beautiful!"
