Although Zhen Mi's affection touched Liu Yu, Liu Yu still had to remind her: "Mi'er, big brother also likes you, but I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to be together." You've seen it tonight, your parents seem to be very wary of me, and they won't allow you to marry me! ”

Liu Yu's worries were not worth mentioning to Zhen Mi, she smiled at Liu Yu, and said confidently: "As long as you like me, big brother, you don't have to worry about my father, everything in our family is up to me!" ”

"Know you're the best!" Since Zhen Mi has boldly confessed, Liu Yu will naturally not refuse again, he is a womanizer, and he doesn't care about Lo-Li-Control or anything!

After correcting his mentality, Liu Yu enjoyed the greatness of Zhen Mi's chest with peace of mind, and asked casually: "Mi'er, your house is really big, you haven't reached the back garden after walking for so long!" ”

Zhen Mi, who got Liu Yu's promise, also regained her girlish beauty, hugged Liu Yu's arm and said with a smile: "No matter how big it is, it won't be bigger than your Xiangye Mansion." By the way, big brother, your sisters are all okay, will they reject me? ”

Liu Yu was held by her with one hand, and the food box with the other, otherwise Liu Yu would definitely touch her little head, and now he could only look at her with loving eyes and said: "Don't worry, your sisters are very good people, they will definitely accept you and like you!" ”

Looking at the trace of worry hidden in Zhen Mi's smile, Liu Yu knew that she had not completely put her mind at ease. In order not to let her think cranky, Liu Yu opened his mouth and asked a somewhat idiotic question: "Mi'er." Tell me about the 'five biggest businessmen in the world', I haven't figured out which five of them are so far? ”

Sure enough, Liu Yu's mentally retarded problem turned Zhen Mi's worries into surprise. She looked at Liu Yu with some amusement and said, "Won't it?" Big brother, as today's prime minister, you don't even know who the five giant businessmen in the world are? ”

Although Liu Yu did it on purpose, she was still a little embarrassed by her staring, and said with a dry smile: "Anyway, these things will be known when you enter the door, so I'll reveal a little bit to you now." Basically, your eldest brother and I are just an idle person, and almost all family affairs, state affairs, and world affairs are done for me by your sisters. ”

"Big brother actually handed over state affairs to your sisters? Aren't you afraid that others will say that you use women to do politics? Zhen Mi's expression showed that she was taken aback.

Liu Yu said disapprerovingly: "Since your sisters have that ability, of course I won't waste it, and besides, their office for handling military and political intelligence affairs is in the inner courtyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion." No one who is not your own is allowed to enter. Even if someone is suspicious, there is absolutely no evidence to be found, I'm afraid they are birds! ”

Zhen Mi automatically ignored Liu Yu's indecent words. A little excitedly asked, "Then when I enter the door, do you also want to help you do things, big brother?" ”

Liu Yu nodded as a matter of course and said, "Of course, my Mi'er is a business genius, and I am ready to hand over all the business of our family to you." But. If it's Mi'er, you don't want to bother. I won't force it! ”

"No, no." After listening to Liu Yu's words, Zhen Mi hurriedly expressed her attitude: "How can I not be willing to help my eldest brother?" Big brother, you can rest assured that you will leave all the family business to me to take care of, and I will definitely create a huge wealth no less than that of Xingchanglong Trading Company! ”

Liu Yu was slightly stunned, first glanced around, and then laid a layer of soundproof true qi cover before it happened, and then said softly with some embarrassment: "Mi'er, that Xingchanglong trading company is also an industry under my name." ”

Zhen Mi stopped her steps and looked at Liu Yu in amazement for a while. Only then did he confirm in a tone of disbelief: "Big brother, you mean." The mysterious owner of the Xingchanglong Trading Company, known as the 'rich world', is you? ”

"Yes, I am the real owner of the Xingchanglong Trading Company." Liu Yu nodded, answered Zhen Mi's question very affirmatively, and then admonished: "Mi'er, this matter is only known to your sisters except for a few high-level executives of Xingchanglong Trading Company, you have to hide this secret in your heart, don't tell others!" ”

"Don't worry, big brother, I will never tell anyone!" Zhen Mi said to Liu Yu very firmly, and then glanced at Liu Yu and said, "No wonder the shopkeeper of Su Da said that the mysterious master of Xingchanglong Trading Company has taken a fancy to me." Hmph, it turns out that big brother, you have long had a bad heart for others, and you can hate letting people say it themselves, you are really bad! After speaking, he twisted Liu Yu's arm fiercely as if venting his anger.

"Let's not stand here all the time, let's talk as we go." Although Zhen Mi's expression was far more embarrassed than annoyed, in order to avoid further embarrassment, Liu Yu still changed the topic: "Mi'er, you haven't told me who the 'five big businessmen in the world' are?" ”

Bingxue's smart Zhen Mi glanced at Liu Yu, and finally replied out loud: "The 'Five Great Merchants in the World' are the five richest and most influential merchants in the world selected by the 'Xu's Qing Pavilion'. They are different from those wealthy families who run their families with power, and they are also different from those Jianghu organizations who use force to establish their careers. They don't enter the officialdom, they don't get involved in the rivers and lakes, they just do business. ”

Liu Yu interjected with some confusion and asked: "It's the past to talk about not entering the officialdom, but it's not realistic if you don't get involved in the rivers and lakes, right?" As far as I know, the Koshō Takashi Trading Company alone has more than 100,000 elite guards......"

Before Liu Yu finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhen Mi: "When that big merchant doesn't have its own escort team today?" It's just that the escort team of our business will not grab land like the Jianghu organization, we just maintain our own safety. Do you understand me when I say that? ”

How can all the women in this world be like this? When I didn't get someone, I looked like a little woman, and once I held someone in my hand, I immediately became strong! I'm so pathetic......

Liu Yu, who didn't care about Gu Ying's self-pity, Zhen Mi continued: "The number one of the 'five great merchants in the world' is naturally your Xingchanglong Trading Company, in addition to various novelty products such as 'White Yushuang', the most profitable thing in Xingchanglong Trading Company is the weapon ......"

Liu Yu touched his chin, slightly puzzled in his heart. You must know that according to Su Shuang's report to him, the profits of the cosmetics industry and the wine industry are far above the weapons. But why doesn't anyone know? Liu Yu guessed that this might be for fear of attracting people's eyes! After all, Xingchanglong Trading Company is just a powerful business organization in the eyes of the people of the world, and if it shows more wealth than people can bear, it will definitely be attacked by a group, which will expose the relationship between Liu Yu and Xingchanglong Trading Company, and the final result is that Liu Yu's plan to control the economic lifeline of others will be aborted......

“…… In second place is the Xuzhou Mi family, their family's biggest source of wealth is 'salt', it is said that more than sixty percent of the salt farms in Xuzhou are controlled by the Mi family......"

Salt has been a lucrative commodity since ancient times. It is indispensable in both troubled and prosperous times. Liu Yu's territory can be self-sufficient in everything, but it is this "salt" that depends on the secret relief of the Xingchanglong Trading Company. Although Liu Yu's sphere of influence was vast, the only places where salt was produced were one inland salt lake in Bingzhou and four sea salt farms in the southern part of Youzhou. It seems that the plan to take down Youbei, where the Gongsun family is entrenched, and Xuzhou, which is controlled by Tao Qian, is about to be put on the table......

“…… The third place is the Wei family in Yongzhou, their family is a century-old jewelry family, and they have been friends with the Cao family for generations, and their original roots are in Yanzhou. Later, he moved to Chang'an, which was controlled by Cao Cao......"

…… The Wei family? Could it be Wei Hong, who scattered his family wealth to fund Cao Cao to raise troops against Dong in history?

“…… In fourth place is the Lu family, the largest landlord in Yangzhou. As the saying goes, 'go thousands of miles, not as good as both sides of the Huai River', but about seventy percent of the fertile land on both sides of the Huai River belong to the Lu family, it is said that their granary is hundreds, and the grain stored in ordinary storage can be eaten by 100,000 people for more than a year, so the folk have the saying that 'Lu Tian is ripe, Xu Yangzu'......"

Can a private farm provide food rations for five million people in Xuyang and Yangzhou? Isn't that a bit of an exaggeration? Hey, could it be that this "Lu family" is the Lu family of Lu Su? It seems that Zhou Yu's military rations in history were sponsored by Lu Su alone! But now Lu Su is already an official under me. It seems that the Lu family should also be on my side......

“…… The last in the ranking is our Zhen family, which is nothing to say. We're eating the leftovers of your prosperous trading company! ”

This somewhat sour sentence made Liu Yu couldn't help but smile dumbly, he glanced at Zhen Mi, who pursed his lips, and said, "What 'we' and 'your', isn't mine yours?" ”

After listening to Liu Yu's words, Zhen Mi immediately became happy, and at this time, the so-called back garden finally appeared in front of their eyes. Zhen Mi took Liu Yu and hurriedly walked into a pavilion in the garden, and helped Liu Yu take out all the wine and cold dishes in the food box and put them on the stone table in the pavilion.

"Big brother, the moonlight tonight is really good." If you're in a good mood, of course it's good to see everything. Zhen Mi gently sat on the railing of the pavilion, and pulled Liu Yu over, gently snuggling on Liu Yu's shoulder, his face full of happiness and pleasure.

Liu Yu didn't say anything, just sat down quietly and admired the scenery in front of him, feeling the warmth and tranquility. A gust of cold wind blew, and Zhen Mi leaned into Liu Yu's arms. Liu Yu looked at her and asked gently, "Is it cold?" ”

"It's not cold, it's warm in my big brother's arms, just like I remember!" Zhen Mi shook her head and said sweetly to Liu Yu.

Liu Yu smiled lovingly at her, hugged her arms tightly, and asked, "Mi'er, didn't you just say that the 'Five Great Merchants' have their own escort teams, so how is their combat effectiveness?" The reason why I asked this is because Liu Yu remembered the private soldiers of the six major families with amazing combat power, since the five giant businessmen can simply stand in the world as merchants, then they must have the strength to make all forces scruple about it, and force is a major manifestation of strength.

Zhen Mi was obviously a little dissatisfied with Liu Yu asking such a disappointing thing in such a warm atmosphere, she glanced at Liu Yu and pouted: "Xingchanglong Trading Company doesn't need to be said more, big brother, you, the master, naturally have a deep understanding of your own strength." ”

Zhen Mi's words made Liu Yu very ashamed, although when Xingchanglong Trading Company was first established, Liu Yu transferred nearly 100,000 elites of yellow turbans to serve as the guards of the Chamber of Commerce, but Liu Yu has not asked about it over the years, so it is really unclear what the scale of the escort team of Xingchanglong Trading Company is now.

Zhen Mi couldn't help but ask in surprise when she saw Liu Yu's sneering expression: "Big brother, you don't even know this problem, do you?" ”

Liu Yu's old face turned red, and he was speechless. Zhen Mi sighed helplessly. He asked, "Big brother, which sister is in charge of the affairs of the Xingchanglong Trading Company?" Don't you feel distressed when you're tired of your sister? ”

How could Liu Yu, who loves his wife, endure this kind of slander, and quickly explained: "They are already busy enough. How can I increase their burden? I am personally responsible for the affairs of Xingchanglong Trading Company, but I myself am not familiar with business, so most of the things are left to Su Shuang to be fully responsible! ”

"What?" Zhen Mi looked very surprised after listening to Liu Yu's words, she immediately entered the role of the housemother, and asked with a little worry: "Big brother, don't blame me for being too talkative, how can you hand over the responsibility of a rich business organization like Xingchanglong Trading Company to outsiders?" In case the person in charge has a bad idea. The loss we will suffer will be immeasurable! ”

In order not to make Zhen Mi have some unnecessary worries, Liu Yu could only roughly explain: "Don't worry, Mi'er." I am absolutely sure that Su Shuang will not have two hearts! If you are still a little worried, then wait until you enter the door to develop a set of effective management methods, anyway, when the time comes, these business organizations will be in charge of you! ”

Zhen Mi nodded vigorously and said very firmly: "Don't worry." Big brother. I won't let anyone take advantage of you! ”

Really, when did I say I wasn't at ease? However, Zhen Mi's mentality of wholeheartedly defending herself still made Liu Yu very satisfied, Liu Yu smiled at her slightly, and said in a harmonious voice: "Let's talk about the affairs of Xingchanglong Trading Company later, now you tell me about the situation of several other giant merchants." ”

Zhen Mi responded obediently and said, "The Zhen family's escort team was formed after the people were in charge, and of course it is also the worst of the five giant merchants, with a number of about 8,000 people. It's a pity that there aren't many masters recruited. Even if you add the background of my Zhen family itself, there are only sixteen first-class masters and four hundred and forty-seven second-rate players. ”

Liu Yu nodded. Relieved: "This is already good, Mi'er, it only took four years to have a guard team of this size is already a remarkable achievement!" ”

Zhen Mi shook his head and said with some regret: "The time for the rise of the Zhen family is still a little shorter, and it is not at all comparable to the century-old Wei family. ”

"Oh?" Liu Yu asked with some curiosity: "Is the strength of the Wei family very strong?" How is it compared to a prosperous trading company? ”

Zhen Mi glanced at Liu Yu angrily, pursed his lips and said: "No one can figure out the strength of the Xingchanglong Trading Company, but its strength on the surface alone is already better than that of many small princes. Not to mention a Wei family, even if the four families of Mi, Wei, Lu, and Zhen are united, it is far inferior. However, the Wei family has been established for a long time, and they are engaged in the jewelry industry, so the strength of their escort team is more than one step ahead of the Mi, Lu, and Zhen families. Although it is not known whether they have hidden strength, there are fifty-eight first-class masters and more than 1,200 second-rate masters. ”

In this world, people are most sought after by the "official gentry", and the status of Jianghu people and businessmen is still very low, so it is difficult to have high-end force, and basically the masters above the innate realm are in the hands of the official and family gate valves. Therefore, a guard team of this level like the Wei family is indeed a force to be reckoned with in the eyes of ordinary people.

Zhen Mi glanced at the indifferent Liu Yu, snorted softly and continued: "The Xuzhou Mi family is the family with the largest number of guards except for the Xingchanglong Trading Company, and there are twenty-seven salt farms under his name, and each salt farm has an escort team of five hundred to eight hundred people, and those guards have a first-class master and thirty or forty second-rate masters. ”

It turns out that there is such a thick family background, no wonder in history, after the Mi family and Liu Bei got married, there were thousands of family soldiers who married alone! However, Liu Yu still asked with some doubts: "The Lu family's domestic slaves who own seventy percent of the Huai River fertile land should be much more than the Mi family, so why is the Mi family's number of guards more than the Lu family?" ”

Zhen Mi stretched out her delicate and smooth fingers like spring onions and nodded at Liu Yu's forehead, and explained carefully: "Although the Lu family is a big landlord in Yangzhou, the vast majority of the people in charge of farming are just tenants who lease their fields, not domestic slaves who sell themselves. And food is not a profiteering commodity like jewelry and salt, so it doesn't need so many people to protect it. Therefore, the Lu family's escort team only has about 10,000 people, including 22 first-class masters. There are more than 600 second-rate players. ”

From the point to the surface, from the situation of the Mi, Wei, Lu, and Zhen families, you can think of the wealthy families all over the world, if they can firmly hug together. That will be a force that can bring trouble to Liu Yu! Thinking of this, Liu Yu couldn't help but remember Zhen Mi's original intention of inviting him here, so he asked, "Mi'er, do you know what your father originally wanted to say to me?" ”

Zhen Mi drew circles on Liu Yu's chest with her spring-like fingers, and replied casually: "I know! Yesterday, after you sent someone to raid the Guo family, many gentry in this city came to visit my father, hoping that my father would come forward to test your true intentions......"

Liu Yu smiled slightly. interrupted her and said, "Those people are afraid that I will find an excuse to come to Yecheng Purge, right?" ”

Zhen Mi nodded and said softly: "The huge rich families in this city are more or less involved with the Yuan family, and now the Guo family, which has a deep relationship with the Yuan family, has been confiscated by you. The rest of these people are naturally panicked, for fear that when you will find an excuse to attack them, so they will come to my father, a good old man, to come forward and talk to you. ”

Liu Yu understood what these people were thinking, so he said directly to Zhen Mi: "You tell your father." Let's just say that the Guo family was destroyed because they intended to assassinate me. As long as the others keep to themselves, I will never touch them, so let them rest assured! ”

"Got it, big brother." Zhen Mi responded obediently.

Looking at her low-eyed appearance, Liu Yu couldn't help but say, "Come to my place tomorrow, and I'll introduce your three sisters to you." ”

Zhen Mi raised her head when she heard this, and asked with surprise on her face: "Really, big brother, are you going to introduce me to my sisters tomorrow?" Will my sisters accept me? ”

Liu Yu looked at her affectionately and said, "Of course." My Mi'er is so cute and smart, my sisters will definitely accept that you like you. You have to have the confidence to be my woman! ”

Zhen Mi's happy eyes just met Liu Yu, and the eyes that met at that moment made Zhen Mi and Liu Yu's minds and bodies shock. Such a close gaze at each other is so natural and unpretentious. From the moment they met their eyes, they also saw each other's thoughts from each other's eyes, even if there were thousands of words, everything was not in words.

At this moment, time seemed to flow still, they didn't have any words, they didn't have any movements, they just stared at each other like that, but Liu Yu suddenly couldn't help but want to break this wordless status quo. His right hand reached out to the back of Zhen Mi's head, slowly and gently moving Zhen Mi's head towards him. Zhen Mi didn't know if it was because of Liu Yu's inexplicable movements, and subconsciously moved her upper body closer to Liu Yu......

I don't know how long it took for Liu Yu's lips and tongue to leisurely leave the slightly swollen red lips that were sucked and sucked, and let go of Zhen Mi, who was coquettish. At this time, Liu Yuhuai's originally closed eyes were already in a state of half-open and half-closed, and there was a sense of mist in the half-exposed gorgeous eyes, and under the backdrop of the long eyelashes fluttering from time to time, a seductive charm was revealed.

Zhen Mi, who made a heavy coquettish sound, glanced at Liu Yu and asked in a feigned anger: "Big brother, ...... you How can you bully people like that? ”

Liu Yu licked his lips and said with a smile: "I didn't bully 'people', I bullied my own woman!" Immediately afterwards, Liu Yu hugged Zhen Mi, who was delicate and soft, and whispered softly in her ear: "Be my woman, I will definitely make you happy." ”

"Hmm." Zhen Mi first hummed softly, and then explained with some shyness as if she had misunderstood something: "Wait for people to get the consent of your sisters before you make it bad, okay?" Just bear with me today, I'm ...... I'll make it happen tomorrow! ”

Liu Yu said with some embarrassment and expectation: "What are you talking nonsense, how can I think that?" Am I so unbearable in your heart? ”

Zhen Mi grinned, twisted in Liu Yu's arms before she said coquettishly: "You dare to say that you don't think so, what is that against other people's houses!" Don't try to deceive people, I've read the ** Sutra! If you dare to say that the stick that someone is sitting on is not an object on your body, then someone will break it! ”

Liu Yu retreated in shame...... (To be continued.) )
