Kapitel 162: Chapter 162
Shen Lang first opened Xu Qianqian's secret letter, and a wave of resentment immediately assaulted his senses.
"I've already been sweeping for a month. Can you imagine that there are over ten beauties sweeping a small courtyard? Can you imagine the days when people can scheme and scheme for a single leaf? Qiu Yao 'er is a devil, a devil that cannot be moved by anything. "
Shen Lang couldn't help but smile. To be able to make a cunning and ruthless woman like Xu Qianqian suffer, it seemed that this Qiu Yao 'er was indeed extraordinary.
But now, Shen Lang could see that anyone with a high talent in martial arts would more or less be a little strange. They were different from ordinary people.
He continued to read the letter.
"I've been in Raging Tide City for almost two months. At the start, my honey trap failed. She doesn't like women at all. But don't be happy, I can't see that she likes men. She's personally killed at least five thousand if not three thousand. "
Shen Lang's neck couldn't help but shiver.
"There are hundreds of beauties in Qiu Yao 'er's castle, all of them pitiful women that she saved. They all have tragic pasts! But pitiful people must have hateful aspects, and these are all bitches, including me. "
This letter was truly filled with resentment.
"You can't imagine how serious the scheming in this castle is, and how strict the hierarchy is. I've been here for two months, but I don't have the qualifications or the means to come into contact with Qiu Yao 'er. I'm four levels below her. "
"Above me is a small leader who sweeps the courtyard, a leader in charge of all the maids in the castle, and finally Qiu Yao 'er's personal maid."
"Even though I don't know what you want me to do by Qiu Yao 'er's side, it means that I have to at least become Qiu Yao' er's personal maid. I never thought that I, the third most talented and beautiful woman of Nujiang Prefecture, would actually have to fight for the position of a personal maid. The ups and downs of life are just too exciting."
"Qiu Yao 'Er's personal attendant is called Lu Yi, and she's a very scheming bitch. She uses her connections to intimidate others and orders people around. Because I seduced Qiu Yao' Er, she always targets me and tramples on me. I want to kill her and replace her, but the time isn't right yet."
"After two months of spying, I've gained the following understanding of Qiu Yao 'er's personality. She was a domineering woman with superb martial arts skills. She had no interest in power or wealth. She only pursued strength and slaughter. In fact, it might not even be a massacre. There seems to be a heaven-defying chivalrous spirit in her heart, as if she wants to cleanse the world of injustice. "
"She's an extremely cruel demoness, but she's also a naive woman. I don't know that you're handsome and have a way with women, but you can't handle this woman. I don't know what kind of man is worthy of her. "
This was complete admiration and worship. Even a woman like Xu Qianqian had an idol?
"Now, I have a chance to get close to Qiu Yao 'er. She is a woman of few words, cold as ice, violent and cruel. She has almost no hobbies, so her days in the castle are very boring. She also doesn't like to read. Her only hobby is listening to people tell stories. "
Listening to stories?
This demoness liked to listen to stories?
But that was normal. She didn't like jewelry, fame, silk and satin, and she didn't like to compare. She didn't like to read either.
Wasn't it just extremely boring?
Most importantly, she wasn't as stupid as the Big Fool and Tang Yan, who could watch ants move for hours without getting tired of it.
Shen Lang continued to read the letter.
"I had prepared a few stories, intending to promote from a cleaner to her personal maid. But those whores are even more prepared than I am. They have already told me all the stories and all the scripts. Even the 'Mandarin Duck Dream' and your 'Boundless Romance' have been told by someone else. By the way, the woman who told 'Endless Romance' has already been sent to clean the latrines. "
What a blind woman. My 'Endless Romance' is so well written. It's obvious that a big-breasted brainless woman like you can't understand it. You can't blame me for not writing it well.
"This Qiu Yao 'er is a pervert who likes the new and dislikes the old. A woman who can tell a good story can stay by her side, but only for a few days. Because once she gets tired of listening to the maid's story, she will be sent far away. She is a person with great love. She saves all the poor women, but she is also a heartless person. She will never pity a single woman."
A person with great love would love a group, but not a single person.
She seemed heartless, but she was the most emotional.
This was the demeanor of a leader.
"I only have one chance, so I don't dare to act rashly. I'm still in hiding. Hurry up and write me some stories. They must be bold, exciting, and most importantly, full of freedom. It's best if they're long enough for me to stay by Qiu Yao 'er's side for a year or so. That way, my position will be stable. "
"Remember, you've already finished writing this story. This is completely related to whether or not I can become her confidant. "
"I have a lot of competitors. Every day, there are dozens of bitches preparing many exciting stories to show off to Qiu Yao 'er. Your story must completely crush those bitches. You must make me stand out. "
"The story must be full of imagination. It must show a completely different world. It must be bold, murderous, and not romantic. Throw your Endless Romance into the toilet. Whether or not I succeed will depend on your story. "
Reading to this point, Shen Lang couldn't help but be stunned.
First of all, this secret letter was too long.
This proved that Xu Qianqian's freedom was not a problem. Moreover, she was very bored and could easily contact the spy that Shen Lang had sent to the Fury Tide City.
However, the world was really full of strange things.
Who would have thought that a vicious and cunning woman like Xu Qianqian would have to resort to telling stories in order to infiltrate Qiu Yao 'er's side.
Slaughter, boldness, heroism, seconds, seconds earth, seconds air.
Should I write Battle Through the Heavens or Journey to the West?
The former was slightly longer. Ten thousand words a day was enough to write for more than a year.
But Journey to the West should be more bizarre and more in line with Qiu Yao 'er's heroic fantasies. It would also be slightly deeper.
Perhaps some people felt that I should copy Legend of Wukong?
No, it's too short. Moreover, there are only words in it. There isn't much story content.
Alright then, I'll copy Journey to the West.
Who would have thought that there would be a day where I would have to copy a book for a single person.
Guru Wu Chengen, I've wronged you.
Guru Potato, I won't flip your card for now.
Next, it was time for Guru Jin Mucong to appear!
He finished reading Xu Qianqian's secret letter!
However, there were a few dots at the end of the secret letter. Were they ellipses?
This world had punctuation marks.
Who invented it?
It was me, Shen Lang.
His Boundless Romance of the Golden Plum Blossoms was printed in a special edition with punctuation marks in it.
Surprisingly, it didn't cause any commotion.
The people who bought this special edition had no experience with punctuation marks, but they were able to accept it naturally. After getting used to it, they had no trouble reading it.
Some people criticized Shen Lang's actions, but their voices were very weak.
Please, this is a book of locust, what more do you want? It was like buying a special action movie. Would you still ask for the female lead's acting skills? As long as it was realistic, it was fine.
Xu Qianqian actually used ellipses at the end of the secret letter. This was a clear hint.
Thus, Shen Lang picked up the secret letter and placed it on the fire.
As expected, more words appeared at the end.
This was the real content of the secret letter:
Qiu Yao 'er has many unique symptoms. Her mouth and nose bleed suddenly, her head is often dizzy, her eyes have double vision, and when it's serious, she will faint. I've flipped through all the medical books but can't find the cause. She's also looked for all kinds of doctors but can't find the cause.
Xu Qianqian was really scheming. She didn't even trust the spy Shen Lang sent to write the secret letter in this way.
She was really learning and applying it.
Just based on her description of Qiu Yao 'er's symptoms, it seemed like a chronic poisoning.
Shen Lang had experienced lead poisoning before. It was Princess Ning Luo.
But Qiu Yao 'er's was more complicated. It didn't seem like lead poisoning.
Moreover, Xu Qianqian was an outsider. She couldn't describe it clearly. Shen Lang needed to diagnose Qiu Yao 'er to know what caused her to be poisoned.
If it was poison?
Then who poisoned her?
Whoever benefited from it was the poisoner.
Then it would be Qiu Xiao, or Qiu Hao?
But from a certain perspective, this was a piece of good news for Shen Lang.
At least he had a breakthrough.
Sigh!
He hadn't been a doctor for a long time. He almost forgot he had this identity.
Jin Hui said, "Young master, where do we receive the Heavenly Society's guests?"
Shen Lang said, "Underground secret room!"
…
Heavenly Society, the world's second largest business organization.
The underground secret room of Xuan Wu Mansion was huge. It was more than two to three hundred square meters. It was also very comfortable.
There were even a few thousand books here. But this was only the basement of the Count House.
The entire underground secret room was lit with hundreds of candles. It was as bright as day.
Two people from the Heavenly Society came. One was Asian, the other was Caucasian.
The Asian wore linen while the Caucasian wore silk.
The Caucasian sat while the Asian stood.
"There are rumors that Xuan Wu Mansion is on the verge of financial collapse and owes a huge debt. But Son-in-law Shen Lang still lives extravagantly. It seems like it's true."
This Caucasian's Mandarin was even better than Shen Lang's.
This was true. Shen Lang was wearing a new set of clothes. It cost more than 270 gold coins.
This was because he found a very expensive material. It was a special kind of meteorite iron.
This kind of meteorite iron could be pulled into very thin threads. It was very tough. So, Shen Lang embroidered this thin meteorite iron thread on the brocade robe. It could be used to show off and also for self-defense.
This robe was personally embroidered by his mother.
"Even if I owe a debt, I still have to live my life." Shen Lang said with a smile. After that, he sat on the main seat.
"Please sit down. Tea!"
The two messengers from the Heavenly Society sat down. Jin Hui served tea.
The two messengers looked around and said, "Where is Xuan Wu?"
Shen Lang said, "I was the one who negotiated with the two of you."
The messenger was stunned. "Young master Shen, please don't joke. We can only talk to the master about this kind of important matter."
The meaning was clear. Can a little son-in-law like you make decisions?
Shen Lang said, "I can make decisions about everything in Xuan Wu Mansion."
The messenger of the Heavenly Society said, "Including selling the whole Count House castle?"
Shen Lang was stunned. "Who said I want to sell the castle?"
The messenger of the Heavenly Society said, "Lord Count personally sent us a letter. He wants to do a business with us for hundreds of thousands of gold coins. Now that the Kim family has lost Wangya Island, the only valuable thing is this castle and 30,000 acres of fertile land. "
Shen Lang couldn't help but laugh in his heart.
These people really dared to think.
Just by losing Wangya Island, everyone thought that the Kim family was finished.
If even the family castle and tens of thousands of acres of fertile land had to be sold, then Xuan Wu Mansion was not finished, but completely dead.
"We are willing to pay 90,000 gold coins for the 30,000 acres of fertile land of the Kim family. As for the family castle, we are willing to pay 200,000 gold coins. " The messenger of the Heavenly Society said, "The total is 290,000 gold coins. Although it is not enough to pay off the debt, it is enough for the Kim family to make a comeback in other countries and continue to live a prosperous life."
After several generations of expansion, the castle of Xuan Wu Mansion was now hundreds of acres large and impregnable.
For hundreds of years, the Kim family had invested countless manpower and material resources to build this castle. Regardless of its historical and military value, the value of the house alone was more than 200,000 gold coins.
It was Sony who sold the building, not us.
If even the family castle was sold, then the Kim family would have no hope at all. They would be completely reduced to stray dogs and could just find a rope to hang themselves.
Shen Lang said, "Our family does not sell the castle, nor does it sell the fertile land."
The messenger of the Heavenly Society said, "Then why did you call us? Our time is very precious. "
Shen Lang said, "This is what we are selling."
Shen Lang clapped his hands, and Jin Hui stepped forward and handed a box to the messenger of the Heavenly Society.
The messenger took it and looked at it.
He had seen all kinds of treasures in the world. Pearls, agates, gems, meteorites, they were not worth much money in his eyes, let alone a business worth hundreds of thousands of gold coins.
He opened the box.
The messenger of the Heavenly Society couldn't help but be stunned, and then he was so shocked that the box in his hand almost flew out.
It was a mirror, a glass mirror that was very close to modern times.
Mirrors were not rare. There were many mirrors in the world.
There were cheaper bronze mirrors, more expensive silver mirrors, and more expensive crystal mirrors.
But bronze mirrors were easy to rust, and silver mirrors would turn black after a period of use.
Moreover, these mirrors were very blurry and dim.
Crystal mirrors were much clearer, but their shape was irregular, so it was difficult to make them big, and they were extremely expensive.
The merchant of the Heavenly Society thought that the crystal mirror was the clearest mirror in the world.
However, compared with the mirror in front of him, it was nothing.
It was too clear.
It was too amazing.
Not only was it clear, but it was also very clear.
It was as if the entire person's reflection was reflected in it.
This was not a mirror, but a reflection of the soul!
Not only that, but the mirror was so light and thin.
It was the first time that the messenger of the Heavenly Society saw himself so clearly.
This mirror was epoch-making, and it instantly killed all the other mirrors.
It was amazing!
There was a huge business opportunity in it!
The two merchants of the Heavenly Society could easily imagine that once this kind of mirror appeared in the world, it would be a revolution, a gold storm.
It would subvert the entire business market.
In fact, the two merchants of the Heavenly Society underestimated it.
At that time, the Kingdom of Venice became a super-rich country in Europe because it mastered the manufacturing process of glass mirrors.
The Kingdom of Venice even enacted a law that anyone who leaked the manufacturing process of glass mirrors would be directly executed.
It was not until the 17th century that a few Venetian craftsmen fled to France and leaked the manufacturing process of glass mirrors. France built the first mirror factory in Normandy.
When the Queen of France got married, the Kingdom of Venice gave her a mirror as a gift, which was worth more than 100,000 francs.
Modern people couldn't understand the shock of the ancient people when they saw the first glass mirror.
Shen Lang said, "The mirror in the messenger's hand is about a foot long. How much do you think it should cost?"
The messenger of the Heavenly Society said, "Is it the auction price or the retail price?"
If the rarer something was, the more precious it was, the higher the auction price would be.
If it was the retail price, it would represent large-scale sales, which would make a lot of money.
It was just like how Rolls-Royce sold at a sky-high price, but its profitability was far less than that of Volkswagen. There was even a time when it almost went bankrupt, so it was eventually sold to BMW and Bentley to Volkswagen.
Shen Lang said, "The retail price."
The price of a foot long bronze mirror was about half a gold coin.
The silver mirror was more expensive, and it cost two gold coins.
Crystal mirror?
There was no such big one because the crystal was natural and couldn't be cut into such a big plane.
But a four-inch crystal mirror sold for about 20 gold coins.
The messenger of the Heavenly Society said, "Such a mirror can be sold for 100 gold coins at first, then 50 gold coins, and the lowest will not be lower than 20 gold coins."
This was selling it as a luxury item.
First, they would harvest the rich nobles of the world, then the rich merchants, and finally the small rich families.
The messenger of the Heavenly Society said, "How much does it cost?"
When he asked this question, the messenger of the Heavenly Society felt that Shen Lang would definitely not tell the truth, because it was obvious that he wanted to sell the mirror to the Heavenly Society and then distribute it to the world.
Shen Lang said, "The cost of a foot long mirror is one silver coin."
"What?" The merchant of the Heavenly Society was completely stunned.
This mirror was so clear that it could reflect people's souls. According to normal imagination, the cost of a dozen gold coins was normal.
He didn't expect that it would only cost one silver coin.
Shen Lang said, "With large-scale production, the cost can be reduced by more than half."
The merchant of the Heavenly Society was completely shocked.
Then, he fell into a huge fantasy.
The cost of one silver coin could be sold for 100 gold coins at first. This, how many times the profit was this?
Two thousand times the profit.
In this world, what business theory was more amazing than this?
The merchant of the Heavenly Society said, "Young Master Shen Lang, how many such mirrors do you have now? We are willing to pay 10 gold coins for each mirror to buy the first batch of mirrors. "
This wholesale price was already very good. With the current situation of the Xuan Wu Mansion, it was impossible for them to sell it themselves.
The Heavenly Society could sell the first batch of mirrors for 100 gold coins each, which was a super sky-high price, equivalent to tens of thousands of yuan.
But thinking about the Chanels on modern Earth, LV bags cost tens of thousands of yuan each.
The price of 100 gold coins was entirely for the sake of maximizing sales and maximizing profits. Otherwise, the price could be higher.
It was a luxury.
Shen Lang said, "Only a thousand mirrors."
After all, Shen Lang had limited craftsmen, and he could only make a thousand mirrors in a few months.
The most difficult thing here was not the mirrors, but the production of high-purity glass. As for the production of the mirrors, it was very simple. He just needed to coat the glass with a layer of liquid silver, which was more advanced than the technology of the Kingdom of Venice. They coated the glass with mercury, which was poisonous.
The messenger of the Heavenly Society said, "After the inspection, if each mirror is so clear and bright, then we want all 1,000 mirrors. 10 gold coins for each mirror, a total of 10,000 gold coins."
10,000 gold coins should be a big deal.
But for the Xuan Wu Mansion, it was a drop in the bucket.
It would cost 700,000 gold coins just to pay off the debt of the Yinyuan Association.
Shen Lang shook his head and said, "No, I want to sell it for a million gold coins."
As soon as this was said, the messenger of the Heavenly Society was completely stunned, as if he couldn't believe his ears.
You want to sell 1,000 mirrors for a million gold coins?
Have you gone crazy thinking about money?
You said yourself that the cost of a mirror is only one silver coin, and we are giving you 10 gold coins each. We are already very generous.
Shen Lang said, "I'm not only selling the mirrors, but also selling the mirror-making technology to you, and only to you. In other words, if I sell the entire industry to you, the million gold coins won't be expensive, right?
"This is a monopoly business that can be done for decades, and the profits it can bring will far exceed a few million gold coins.
"I'm only selling it to you for a million gold coins, which is very kind of me. Of course, the only condition is that you have to buy the glass from my family.
"This industry is not only an opportunity for you to make money, but also an opportunity to defeat the Yinyuan Association and become the number one chamber of commerce in the world.
"If you don't want to, I can only take this technology to the Yinyuan Association. I believe they will be very happy. Then you will probably be suppressed by the Yinyuan Association for a few decades.
