Speaking of his third brother, since he was almost an adult, Zhu Gaochi had sent someone to teach him these things.
That little yellow book was naturally the best teaching material, and he was loyal. Zhu Zhan Xin ran to ask for it, and he did not stop him from secretly taking him to see it.
Therefore, at this time, he naturally would not betray his beloved third brother.
"Nonsense. I don't have the money. Even if I did, how could I bring it back? Do you think I can hide it from Mother?”
"If she knew that you brought back a woman from the Western Regions and that she was planning to be your concubine, she would beat you to death.”
Zhu Zhanji couldn't help but scold him.
"Can't we just use the national treasury for the money? Anyway, Imperial Grandfather has already said that I will give whatever I need. As for Mother, I just need to be careful and won't be discovered.”
Zhu Zhanji was speechless. How could you use the things in the national treasury so brazenly?
Aren't you afraid that the old man will find out?
Wait, even if he knew, the old man wouldn't care about him.
Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanji felt a headache coming on.
"No matter what, that woman cannot be brought back. If mother finds out, I will be punished as well.”
Zhu Zhanji rejected his suggestion.
"I say, Big Brother, are you going to just watch her be taken away? Being my concubine is better than being an official.”
As he spoke, Zhu Zhan Xin directly shouted at the merchant from the Western Regions.
"I want it."
Immediately, the merchant and the merchant from the Western Regions looked at them.
"Fifth Brother!"
Zhu Zhanji gritted his teeth and looked at him.
"Big brother, actually, I have another reason. That woman has a special physique and is a good 'cultivation cauldron'. Do you know that cultivation cauldrons can speed up my cultivation?”
"Is that woman really effective?"
Zhu Zhanji was also a little puzzled. He had naturally heard of the term furnace. If it was really as Zhu Zhanxin said, then he really had to buy it.
"Really? Otherwise, why would I care so much? Did she really think that I was interested in her looks?”
As he spoke, Zhu Zhan Xin looked at him disdainfully.
"I'm an immortal. Why would I only care about looks?”
Seeing that this move was effective, Zhu Zhan Xin continued to bluff.
What cultivation furnace? What speeding up cultivation was all nonsense. With his aptitude, did he need a cultivation furnace?
He was just finding a high-sounding excuse. He was just greedy for her body.
"Well, alright, I'll buy it for you first.”
Zhu Zhanji didn't hesitate anymore when he heard Zhu Zhanxin's tone.
It was related to Zhu Zhanxin's cultivation. Even if Zhu Di came, he would probably have to buy it for him.
"Young masters, do you want that woman?”
At this moment, the merchant from the Western Regions walked over and sized up Zhu Zhanji and the others.
Seeing that they were dressed in extraordinary clothes, he knew that they must be the sons of some high-ranking officials and nobles, so his tone became much better.
"Yes, we want that woman. We'll pay the price you just said.”
When the wealthy merchant saw this scene, he only shook his head and did not open his mouth to curse.
The waters in the capital were very deep. It was not worth it to have a conflict with someone over such a small matter. Moreover, if he encountered someone he could not afford to offend, it would be too late to regret it.
Merchants were all seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages. Being cautious was always a good thing.
Zhu Zhan saw the merchant leaving and felt a little regretful. This was different from what he had imagined.
"Alright, may I ask where Young Master's residence is? I'll get someone to send it over.”
The merchant did not mention the silk. He knew that this price was nothing to the real upper class.
"Ahem, I'll get a servant to bring you there.”
As he spoke, he waved his hand and called a servant over. He whispered a few instructions into his ear.
Then, the merchant from the Western Regions sent someone to take the carriage and follow the servant. During this time, he even covered it with a black cloth.
"The thing will be delivered to you later.”
Zhu Zhanji looked at him and said lightly.
"Understood, understood."
The merchant nodded repeatedly.
"Alright, I've bought the person back. You can explain it to mother yourself.”
He could not bear the blame for Zhu Zhan Xin.
"I know. Don't worry, I won't betray you.”
Zhu Zhan laughed.
"Let's go. Didn't you say you were going to look for medicinal herbs?”
With that, Zhu Zhanji turned around and left with him.
"Wait, young masters."
At this moment, the merchant from the Western Regions suddenly shouted.
This shout immediately alerted the Embroidered Uniform Guards hiding around. They did not care about the identity of the merchants from the Western Regions.
The order they received was to not let the two majesties come to any harm.
"Why are you afraid that we won't give you the goods?"
Zhu Zhanji looked at him and frowned.
"Young Master is too serious. How can I not believe Young Master?”
The merchant immediately replied with a smile.
"Then why did you stop us?"
"It's like this. This lowly one travels around all year round and the journey is long. Naturally, I've encountered countless small countries. If the two young masters have something you want, you can tell this lowly one. This lowly one will definitely bring it over next time.”
Zhu Zhanji looked at him from head to toe. He had to admit that this merchant from the Western Regions was quite smart.
Merchants from the Western Regions could only purchase silk from the Great Tang under certain restrictions, and Guan Yu could not buy much on his own.
However, it would be different if he managed to pull strings with the high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital.
And this was indeed the case. The merchants of the Western Regions relied on the sale of female slaves to slowly build a lot of connections.
To him, connections were money.
"We don't want anything."
Zhu Zhan basically hated these slave traders. After replying to him, he prepared to leave.
"Young masters, stop thinking about it. As long as you want it, whether it's something big Ming has or not, I can get it for you.”
Zhu Zhanji didn't turn his head as if he hadn't heard him.
However, Zhu Zhan Xin stopped.
"Are you sure you can get them all?"
Zhu Zhan looked at him playfully.
"Young Master, as long as it's something in this world, I can get it for you.”
The merchant from the Western Regions smiled.
"Then see if you can find this medicinal herb for me. As long as you find it, the price won't be a problem.”
As he spoke, Zhu Zhan Xin handed over the paper with the medicinal herbs drawn on it.
Zhu Zhanji looked at him and frowned, but he didn't say anything.
The merchant from the Western Regions took the portrait and frowned.
"Why? Didn't you say that you could get it?”
Zhu Zhanmo looked at him in amusement. He had originally wanted to tease him.
"This, this lowly one has indeed never seen this medicinal herb before.”
He was indeed in a dilemma.
"Alright, Fifth Brother, let's go."
Zhu Zhanji immediately lost interest.
However, at this moment, a foreigner who was performing acrobatics behind him said in a babbling voice.
The merchant from the Western Regions was shocked and quickly called out to them.
"Wait, Young Masters, I might have some news.”
