275.Chapter 275: Don't compare yourself to the young master
Chapter 269: Don't be richer than the young master
"Mr. Liu, I have admired the name for a long time, and Lu Jiguang of Guangli Bank has met Mr. Liu." Lu Jiguang's posture is very low, as the saying goes, businessmen and businessmen, there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests, so if there is no deep hatred, people will generally not be offended to death.
"I have admired Mr. Lu's name for a long time, and when we meet for the first time, if there is anything wrong, bear with me." Liu Fei also clenched his fists at the other party and bowed his hand.
"Mr. Liu is polite, please come in." Lu Jiguang was a little flattered, you must know that he probably knew the identity of the person in front of him from Fulong's mouth, although the other party did not admit it, and Lu Jiguang was not sure, but even if there was only a 1 in 10,000 possibility, this was something he did not dare to offend.
"Please." Liu Fei also made a gesture of please, and then walked directly to Lu Jiguang's house, and all the t800s behind Liu Fei naturally followed Liu Fei to the inside, as for the sycophants, they were naturally taken care of by the Lu family's subordinates.
After entering the main hall, the guests and hosts sat down, and only two T800s followed Liu Fei in, but the other T800s had been scattered to all corners of the courtyard, and all the lines that could reach the main hall were all killed.
Even if the t800 is thrown into modern times, it will be regarded as an elite soldier, not to mention the Qing soldiers who have almost been poisoned by opium and have no combat effectiveness at all in this era, so Lu Jiguang, who saw this scene, was slightly shocked in his heart, what an elite guard! As for what the weapon the other party was carrying, Lu Jiguang couldn't see it, but he didn't dare to slack off.
"Shopkeeper Lu, Ming people don't talk secretly, I'm here for Fulong and a few people." After Liu Fei sat down, he said very simply.
As soon as Liu Fei spoke, Lu Jiguang's heart trembled, Liu Fei's style of this method is too unreasonable, how can he talk about things directly? But now that Liu Fei has spoken, Lu Jiguang can only follow Liu Fei's words.
"Mr. Liu, Fulong was imprisoned by us, but I don't know what Mr. Liu has to say?" Lu Jiguang thought about it and directly admitted his actions, but there was nothing superfluous.
"There's nothing to see, I just want to tell Mr. Lu that your fleet was indeed robbed by the British Far East Fleet, although they were flying the pirate flag, but so many people on board heard it, even if they wanted to lie, it was impossible for more than three hundred people to lie with him, I believe that Mr. Lu, you will not be so stupid." Liu Fei took a sip of tea lightly and spoke.
"Of course, I can understand what you did, Mr. Lu, the goods of 500,000 taels of silver are gone like this, and this is a major blow to anyone, so I came to ask for a law for them." Liu Fei glanced at Lu Jiguang and said in a calm tone.
Ask for a law? Lu Jiguang was shocked, and immediately spoke: "I don't know what you mean by this, Mr. Liu?" ”
"It's not interesting, isn't it just a loss of 500,000 taels of silver? If you release them, I will accept them all, and I will pay you 600,000 taels of silver, okay? It's all silver. Liu Fei said lightly.
Lu Jiguang almost stood up directly from the chair, but he still couldn't help it, but he couldn't help but reach out and touch his chin and beard, and the two young people in their twenties standing behind Lu Jiguang almost bulged out their eyes! This...... It's completely different from what they think!
Lu Jiguang thought of Liu Fei's various reactions after he came, but he didn't expect that Liu Fei would be so simple and directly lose money! And not only lost silver, but also directly lost 100,000 taels of silver! You know, those goods are 500,000 taels, but in fact, the cost price is only 300,000 taels, and 500,000 taels of silver refers to the price after being sold to Europe.
"What? Dissatisfied? Is 1 million good? Lu Jiguang didn't say anything, Liu Fei raised his eyebrows again, and said lightly.
A layer of fine beads of sweat immediately appeared on Lu Jiguang's forehead, it stands to reason that Liu Fei took the initiative to increase the price, he should be happy, but Lu Jiguang's heart trembled terribly, and the other party's price was too outrageous. How rich and wealthy is this to pay an extra 500,000 taels of silver for more than 300 sailors?!
And he just hesitated, and directly added 400,000? But the other party's calm tone, as well as such a wealthy person, undoubtedly make one thing clear, that is, how strong the other party is!
"Mr. Liu, there is a sentence in Wenhan that I don't know whether to ask or not." Lu Jiguang hesitated for a long time before gritting his teeth before speaking.
Hearing that Lu Jiguang had come out with his real name, and this tone was completely putting his status very low, Liu Fei was very satisfied with this attitude, and said lightly: "If you have any questions, just ask." ”
"I listen to Mr. Liu's housekeeper, Mr. Liu has something to do with this?" Lu Jiguang directly reached out and dipped the tea, and then wrote a clear word on the table between the two.
"Yes, I am the prince of the Ming Dynasty, and I am the only prince now." Liu Fei glanced at that word and immediately said very bluntly.
As soon as Liu Fei's words came out, Lu Jiguang's body shook, and he almost rolled off the chair, as if he had made a needle under his buttocks, fidgeting, but he couldn't cry or laugh in his heart, uncle, I was afraid that the wall had ears, so I wrote directly, you just nodded directly, so ...... come out.
"Lu Wenhan has seen His Highness." Lu Jiguang hesitated for a moment, and then decisively stood up from the chair and threw his hand directly at Liu Fei, and the two sons behind him were also frightened by Liu Fei's words, and hurriedly saluted with Lu Jiguang.
"Excuse me, this is not the Ming Dynasty now." Liu Fei waved his hand lightly, and then continued to ask with a smile: "However, since Mr. Lu knows my identity, why doesn't he report to the official?" ”
"Wenhan doesn't dare." Lu Jiguang smiled bitterly and bowed again.
"Okay, since that's the case, I don't know, do you want to do a business with me." Liu Fei squinted his eyes and asked with a smile.
"What business?" Lu Jiguang's heart moved, and he immediately asked.
"Let the entire Lu family continue the business for thousands of years." Liu Fei said lightly.
Hearing this clearly, Lu Jiguang couldn't help but tremble in his heart, and the whole person was a little excited, but he quickly calmed down again, because this business was ...... To do it or not to do it, the risk is extremely high! It's a head-killing risk.
"Mr. Lu doesn't have to answer me now, but I have a question, I want to ask, Mr. Lu, how long do you think this Qing Dynasty can last?" There is no one else around here at all, so Liu Fei is not afraid at all, besides, even if there are other people, so what? Liu Fei is still not afraid.
"This ...... Mr. Liu, I don't think I dare to discuss such a question. Lu Jiguang smiled bitterly, but Lu Jiguang knew in his heart that the decline of the Qing Dynasty was in the eyes of these businessmen.
"Okay, then we won't discuss this, but Mr. Lu, what do you think of the current situation of the Qing Dynasty? Okay, it's not far away, you are around Guangzhou, do you think that looking around Guangzhou now, can this country, this empire still be saved? Liu Fei threw out another heavy topic.
Is there a salvation? Lu Jiguang couldn't help but repeat it in his heart, but no matter how he thought about it, Lu Jiguang felt full of sadness, just look at those city defense troops, they are all skinny, every time they enter and leave the foreign smoke house, there are big smokers everywhere, if they really fight, how much combat effectiveness can they have?
"I don't know what business you want to do with me, Mr. Liu?" Lu Jiguang did not answer Liu Fei's words, but asked directly.
"Daddy!" The two sons standing behind Lu Jiguang couldn't help but say in unison, of course they knew that if they did business with Liu Fei and were known by the Qing Dynasty, what was it called!
Lu Jiguang raised his right hand, stopped his son's words, and waited for Liu Fei's answer.
"Of course it's a good business, Mr. Lu, don't worry, it won't make you embarrassed, a business of 6 million taels of silver." Liu Fei laughed twice, and then said lightly.
6 million taels?! Lu Jiguang and his two sons were shocked in their eyes, although their Lu family has been mixed in the thirteen lines of Guangzhou for many years, and they don't know how many assets they have, but they can take out 6 million taels of silver at one time, in addition to the imperial court, I'm afraid it is only available to those big families who have been inherited for many years, right?
"Mr. Liu, you." Lu Jiguang immediately asked.
"Help me collect some various ceramics from Kangxi to Daoguang, as well as some Huanghuali furniture, of course, you can also receive red sandalwood, it is best to be an official kiln, and celebrity calligraphy and painting can also be." Liu Fei squinted his eyes directly and said.
Lu Jiguang glanced at Liu Fei with some surprise, these things are not very expensive, although there have been some years in the Kangxi period, but after all, the time is not very long, so it is not difficult to find. Huanghuali is not difficult to find, it is the trouble point of red sandalwood, after all, it is a royal tribute, and ordinary people cannot have it, but this thing, there are policies and countermeasures, even red sandalwood Lu Jiguang has a way.
But six million taels can't all these things, right? How much do you have to charge!
"And, of course, there's a second business." Liu Fei spoke again.
"I don't know if you've noticed those beggars, Mr. Lu." When Liu Fei first entered the city, he saw a huge number of beggars, and the entire city of Guangzhou could be seen almost everywhere.
"Of course." Lu Jiguang nodded, not knowing why Liu Fei did this.
"Then Mr. Lu should know that there should be children and daughters around Guangzhou, right?" Liu Fei also rode into the city just now, and suddenly remembered that this is also a characteristic of this era, or simply, caused by the scourge of opium.
As soon as Liu Fei said this, Lu Jiguang was silent again, and he nodded after a long time
