C20 Again

"These are two entirely different things. Why would Lord Chu deliberately make things difficult for my Chen family?" Chen Xiaolan stared at Li Jie.

Li Xin laughed and replied, "Because this is my business. I'll do what I want. " Looking at the angry and unhappy expression on Chen Yulan's face, he suddenly felt somewhat happy.

It was nothing to tease a girl with. It was just too interesting.

Looking at Li Xin's wretched smile, Chen Yulan was almost angered to the point that he wanted to flick his sleeves and leave. She was a proud person to begin with. How could she be willing to be weak in front of Li Xin, the famous playboy she despised? She had to think of a way to get back the half of what Li Xin had forcefully suppressed!

"How is it? Can't you accept my conditions?" Li Xin saw that Chen Xiaolan didn't say anything for a long time, so he intentionally made a ruckus.

Of course, this was not because he hated Chen Xiaolan. In fact, ever since he found out that Chen Xiaolan didn't actually look like what Wang Gui had asked him about, he had a natural favorable impression of her. However, a good impression was a good one. After all, in the vast majority of cases, this wouldn't stop the boys from teasing the girls. Instead, it would only increase their fun after successfully teasing the girls.

Chen Youlan calmed down and looked at Li Jun. "My Chen family would never accept such unfair conditions." The servant girl beside her also opened her eyes wide and looked at Li Xin with the same expression as her young miss, as if she was facing a common enemy.

The young maid was also very cute, and her face was round. Anyone who was stared at by such an innocent pair of eyes would involuntarily begin to doubt whether they were the tyrannical demon kings in fairy tales or not, right?

Li Xin touched his nose guiltily. Suddenly, an idea came to him and he put on a malicious expression. He meaningfully looked at the young maid and asked, "This young maid is not bad. She's pretty cute. What's her name?"

"What do you want to do?" Chen Xiaolan immediately stepped to the side, placing the cute maid behind her. "Little Ling has been following me since I was young. I won't give her to you!" Little Ling also immediately noticed that Li Xin seemed to have evil intentions towards her. She hurriedly hid behind Chen Yulan's thin figure like a frightened rabbit.

During the Tang Dynasty, not only had the nobles and scholars given one or two female servants to each other, but it was also a common thing. No one would feel ashamed about it and instead, they would proclaim that they were very close to each other.

Li Xin pretended to be disappointed, "Then what do we do? You have to pay a little bit, don't you? If you don't compensate me a bit, how can I treat your Chen family equally? "

Hearing Li Xin say that he had suffered greatly in marrying the Chen family's third wife, Chen Xiaolan's eyebrows raised up again. She unconsciously revealed a somewhat feminine and barbaric expression.

Li Xin silently watched and shook his head in his heart: "Dress up as a man is really too easy to see through. Presumably, those male protagonists in the TV series are all blind, right?" How could he not see through it if he wasn't blind? In any case, their eyes and brains were bound to be damaged, or even both.

After an intense mental struggle, a plan had finally formed in Chen Xiaolan's mind. She calmly glanced at Li Xin and said, "If I tell you that my sister looks completely different from what you've heard, will you believe me?"

Of course I do.

Li Xin nodded in his heart. On the surface, he had a disdainful expression. He sneered as he looked at Chen Xiaolan and said, "If you were me, would you believe me?"

Chen Yulan was not surprised by this answer. He continued, "It's very simple. I can let you see my elder sister. When the time comes, you will know exactly what my young mistress looks like after seeing her for yourself. "

Actually, I have already seen it.

Li Xin forced a smile, and with an expression of anticipation and disbelief, he said, "Is that true? Aren't you afraid that people will gossip if they find out about this? " It was a pity that Tang Dynasty didn't have any Oscar. Otherwise, Li Xin would have definitely been able to win over a Golden Man with the words he had just spoken.

Chen Xiaolan said with an expressionless face, "It's not like we're meeting in private. What's there to be afraid of?" My elder sister has always had the habit of going to Longquan Temple to burn some incense. I just need to inform you in advance where your elder sister is going. As long as you don't say anything, and I don't say anything, no one will know. "

Hearing this, Li Xin did not understand why Chen Xiaolan sold herself so easily. If it was to protect her precious servant girl, she wouldn't have done so. After all, Li Xin did not show any strong intent to take down Little Bell. However, objectively speaking, this was indeed the bargaining chip that Li Xin wanted to discuss with her the most. On this point, she had made quite a good grasp of it.

"That's a good idea. If I really can see your sister, and if your sister is indeed not bad looking, I can give you another fifty percent. " Li Xin, while pondering about what Chen Yulan was thinking, nodded his head in agreement with a smile.

However, at this time, Chen Youlan shook her head and said, "You misunderstood me. I didn't say that I would directly use my elder sister's name to exchange shares with you. Moreover, isn't Lord Chu's share too little? Could it be that meeting with my elder sister is only worth half of it? "

Although you, Chen Xiaolan, are pretty good-looking, isn't half of it enough to see you? Do you know how much this half is worth?

Li Xin rolled his eyes in his heart.

Initially, he had only wanted to set up a small winery, which would be several tens of thousands of slots a year, and gradually eat away at the wine market in Chang'an. However, after hearing what Wang Gui said, he changed his plans and decided to attract the Qin family to directly take over the Changan market with the most forceful attitude. After that, he might even sell Erguotou to the entire Tang Dynasty. As a result, it was hard to estimate how much this business was worth. Based on Chang'an alone, the value of half of a piece was worth at least hundreds of thousands of slots!

Of course, that was something to be said later. Chen Youlan did not have the eyes of a descendant like Li Xin, so he naturally did not understand this aspect. He only knew that the current scale of the business was about one hundred points each of the four families. As such, in her eyes, half of them were only worth about 20 points. It was indeed not a lot.

Li Xin helplessly shook his head and asked, "Then, what do you want to do?"

"Very simple." Chen Yulan suddenly smiled and said, "Your Highness Chu, do you dare to make a bet with me?"

"Another bet?" Li Xin smiled strangely and asked, "There seems to be an incomplete bet between us right? You seem to be slightly behind me! "

Hearing this, Chen Yulan's face turned slightly red for a moment, like a peach blossom blown by the spring wind, and then disappeared. She lightly coughed twice, and seriously stared at Li Xin as she said, "Didn't you say that we can temporarily seal it and then wait for me to have the chance to compete? Could it be that the dignified fourth young master of the Chen Clan will trust you? "
