Chapter 426: Runyu
Lu Zifei has not given up in the south, neither the imperial court nor the emperor in Quanzhou wants the Lu Group to continue, Cai Xiang is to give Lu Zifei a psychological comfort, so Lu Zifei chose to reopen the situation in Guangzhou.
Cao Feng was convinced of his good friend's words, and his first insight when he arrived in Guangzhou was to firmly grasp the military power in his hands, and if a general had no soldiers under him, what would you play, as for the transfer yamen on Guangnan East Road, it was a matter of Xiucai.
This time there is no privilege in Quanzhou, so Cao Feng is very restricted in Guangzhou, from soldier training to going to sea must be approved by the transfer department, to control the military with literature is not a mantra, but a real rule, if you dare to transgress, the next day the transfer envoy has the right to take back your military power.
"The transfer station on Liuqiu Island is no longer available now, Xiucai means to build another transfer station between Guangzhou, Qiongzhou, and Mayi, and I will give you the task, and the rest will depend on you."
"Should we fix it ourselves, or do we raise money like Quanzhou and let local businessmen get involved."
"I said that the decision is in your hands, we have our own duties, I am responsible for training, you are in charge of business, you have opinions to discuss, Xiucai has no time recently, and when he returns to the capital, he will definitely ask about this matter, you have to give him an explanation, and you need me to come to me directly for the matter."
The layout of Guangzhou did not affect Zhang Tangqing to find Lu Zifei on a snowy day, and Lu Zifei, who was dressed like a rich man, saw Zhang Tangqing and said impatiently: "My brother Xiyuan! What's wrong with it. β
Zhang Tangqing spread his hands and said: "The weather is too cold, and the construction of the earthen wall will not work at all. β
Lu Zifei said: "If the earthen wall can't be made, use bricks!" Isn't it just a matter of spending more money, and you can use a six-grade master like you to run back and forth in the cold. β
Zhang Tangqing said: "Why is it so simple in your mouth? You don't need to burn the bricks! Where does the money come from, last time I was in the Hejian Mansion I begged my mother-in-law to tell my grandmother and got 5,000 yuan. β
Lu Zifei asked: "I remember that in the past two days, the envoy of the Scripture has come to Hejian Mansion to inspect, right?" β
"Yesterday has arrived, I want to go to you, I won't go."
Lu Zifei circled around him and said: "Anyway, you are also my senior, you have been mixed in the officialdom for a few years, why are you still shy, it is not good to be an official, since the envoy is here, you accompany me to visit the meeting." β
When the two of them arrived at the Hejian Mansion, Du Yan smiled and said to Lu Zifei: "Hanzhang, you first make it clear whether this is a private visit or a business matter." β
Lu Zifei said: "What about private affairs, what about official affairs"
"If it's private, we can grill some meat and sit down for a few drinks together, business? That's business. β
"Then let's go public before private, the money for the infrastructure of the field is not enough, I will make some fate."
Du Yan said: "Isn't it enough for Hejian Mansion to give you five thousand guan last time? How much more this time. β
Lu Zifei stretched out five fingers, and Du Yan said, "Five thousand? That's too much, isn't it? β
Lu Zifei shook it, Du Yan opened his eyes wide and said, "You won't tell me that you want 50,000 yuan!" Are you crazy or am I crazy. β
"Is 50,000 a lot? Is it also a trade market between the two countries? This money will be deducted from Liaoguo later, I am not taking the money back to my house, and my family is not short of some money, if you say that you will give me the right to use the field, I will immediately take out 100,000 yuan and give it to Hejian Mansion for free, how about it. β
Du Yan pointed at Lu Zifei with his finger and said: "Fifty thousand is too much, and the two roads in Hebei can't come up with so much money, even if you strangle the prefect of Hejian, he won't be able to make it up for you, say a similar number, don't open your mouth." β
"Thirty thousand! Minimal. β
"Ten thousand, if you have more, you can go to someone else! Don't come to me. β
"Deal"
Du Yan knew that he had been fooled again, but it was impossible to regret it after the words had been spoken, and he scolded with a smile: "I fell in love with your kid's way again, did something happen to the field?" You're out in person, and I've heard people say you're having a lot of fun. β
Lu Zifei said: "A small problem can be solved soon, but you are so old, you should pay attention to your body." β
Du Yan said: "My old bones can still hold up, are you still okay?" Fuck off! β
Zhang Tangqing now admires Lu Zifei's five-body throw, and happily returned to the base of Rongchang with the money, Lu Zifei gathered the workers again and asked them if they would be bricklayers, and many workers raised their hands, which Lu Zifei was very pleased with, although bricks were not very commonly used in the Song Dynasty, but someone would do it.
Li Erniu said: "My lord, if you do this, we will have to redo a lot of our work, which is the price we said before..." β
Lu Zifei said: "I have the money to do, and I will add more money to you when the statistics come out in two days, I think I still count when it comes to money!" β
Li Erniu said with a smile: "We are all a group of bitter haha, so don't worry, adults, you don't have to take it to heart." β
Lu Zifei said: "Your number is still not enough, you'd better find some more people to come, and I plan to use cement on the back road, you don't have to know what cement is, I want to express just one meaning, your people are not enough." β
Li Erniu said: "There are people, I'm afraid that they won't be able to make money, you see the weather is quite cold." β
At this time, Lu Zifei misses the loader and excavator very much, mechanized construction not only saves manpower but also reduces the cost a lot, and the progress must be fast, it is estimated that he will not see the day of mechanized construction until he dies in his life.
A small farmer's market allowed him to see the hands-on ability of the ancients and the ability of officials to do things, and the reason why a jinshi without any experience was easily fooled by people when he went up to the local area, and the reason was that they had no practical experience, so it was strange that they could do a good job by relying on the poor knowledge they learned in the book.
Cai Mengyue of the Lu family in the capital asked nervously: "Xiaoyun, how is it, did Mr. give you a word?" β
Lu Ziyun said with a smile: "For my brother's sake and for the sake of those bottles of good wine, Mr. Hu is too good to speak, and his mouth has not stopped preaching when I stood at that hour." β
Cai Mengyue pulled back Jun Xiang, who wanted to drag the jade pendant on the second uncle's waist, and said, "Are you going to die in a hurry, this kid?" Let's talk about what Mr. Hu gave you, and Mr. Can't arrange it at will. β
"Runyu, sister-in-law thinks this word is good or not."
"The gentleman is as gentle as jade, very good words, after taking the words, you can't be as nonsense as before."
Lu Ziyun played with the entangled Jun Xiang with the jade pendant on his waist, and then asked casually, "There are more guards in the house, is there anything wrong at home?" β
Cai Mengyue's eyes dodged for a moment and said, "It's nothing!" I just see them lazy and idle all day long, and find something to do for them, but you, Guozijian's studies are also completed, what are your plans for the future. β
Lu Ziyun said: "Sister-in-law, why are you becoming more and more like your father, let's play for a while first!" Later, I'll wait for my brother to come back and discuss it. β
It's not a good thing to have an excellent older brother, and being a younger brother feels like it's impossible to surpass your brother in everything, so I have a kind of thinking that it's better to do nothing.
After playing with his nephew for a while, Lu Ziyun returned to his house, called the old guard in the house and asked about it, only to know that there was such a big thing in the house, and the eighteen-year-old was pondering whether he was capable of doing it.
"Second son, you better not get involved in this matter, otherwise it will become more and more chaotic."
"The Cao family deceives people too much, if it weren't for my brother helping their family, the Cao family would be nothing now, a Cao Feng who can hold up a little faΓ§ade is still my brother who worked hard to help him up, it's really not a thing." Lu Ziyun gritted his teeth and said.
"What Li Gongzi means is that he has already told Cao Ran about this matter, let their family solve it by themselves."
"Is there any news from the palace?"
"No, the emperor didn't reveal any thoughts, and now the emperor is not so close to him."
Lu Ziyun said: "Why, when you ask for money every year, it's like a bottomless pit, you can't do anything with your bald head, what do you want to do with them, the money in the family is also earned by my brother's hard work, reduce some tribute to them this year, so that they can know that it is not so easy to take this money." β
"I know, but our family may not be suitable for the Pan family, and the eldest prince will not agree to us doing this."
Lu Ziyun thought for a while and said: "The relationship with the Cao family is completely cut off except for Cao Feng, whether it is in business or officialdom. β
"Do you have to take care of the queen, it's not good to do too much."
Lu Ziyun threw the Junyao teacup in his hand far away, and said angrily: "It's too much, they all want to kill people, and we're still thinking about it, so let's do as I say, no need to ask the eldest brother." β
"Yes" They are very clear about who has the final say in this family, in the absence of Lu Zifei, Lu Ziyun's words are more effective than Cai Mengyue's words, this is the family rule of a patriarchal society, and men are the pillars of a family.
"In the future, I will manage it, my brother thinks of everyone too well, it is a person who wants to bully him when he sees it, we don't do it, but it doesn't mean that we don't do anything, the manpower and plan are done first, if you really want to do it, give them a thunderous blow."
What Lu Ziyun said came to Cai Mengyue's ears as it was, and Cai Mengyue just said lightly, "I am a woman, you will listen to him when the second uncle says, and I also think he is good." β
In fact, the most panicked person in the assassination should be Cao Tong, the Pan family seems to be a scapegoat in the eyes of insiders, but the Cao family has no movement at all now, what is Cao Tong's reliance, the identity of the uncle or the prince's own uncle?
Everyone is waiting for the attitude of the Cao family, the Lu family, the Li family, the emperor, and the Cao family's opening of their mouths will determine the direction of this matter to a certain extent, but things don't seem to be as simple as imagined.
