Not long after, He Zhiyuan and Zhou Fuliu, who were in Zhouji Department Store, knew about it. kan

He Zhiyuan said with a smile: "It seems that the Lu family in Yangzhou is very rich, and 100,000 taels of silver is just to hear it." ”

"He's demonstrating to us." Zhou Fuliu said.

"Humph! It's just a local tyrant. ”

Zhou Fuliu smiled: "In their eyes, you are the local tyrant." However, the Lu family should not be underestimated, I inquired. Since the opening of the new Sino-French policy in the fifth year of Hongzhi, the Lu family has climbed to the official position of the two Huai Salt Divisions and made a lot of money in the salt business, and it is said that the family property has several million taels. ”

"He's his salt merchant, and he has nothing to do with us. How did you get here and get a kick? He Zhiyuan asked puzzled.

"You don't know this, now the Lu family is not only in the salt business, but also in silk, trade, and department stores. It is said that there are also overseas merchants who do business with their families. Zhou Fuliu said.

"You said that the Lu family still does business with overseas merchants? Didn't the court enforce a sea ban? ”

"Smuggling!"

"So as long as you catch the evidence of his smuggling, you will take his seven inches?" He Zhiyuan asked.

"So to speak. In fact, these salt merchants have a bigger handle, that is, to pass the widows. How could they safely transport goods out of the sea without colluding with the Japanese and trading with overseas trade? So their real seven inches are tongyu. ”

"If you have this handle, you won't be afraid of him making a trick behind his back. The key is to find out the ironclad evidence of their complication! ”

"Yes, this matter has to be considered in the long run, and there is no urgency. Now let's think about what will happen to the Lu family next? Zhou Fuliu said.

"What else, since they started out in the salt business, they will definitely make a fuss about salt. Isn't your family also in the salt business? I guess he's going to stumble your family in this regard. ”

"My father and I also thought about it, and we won't be in the salt business anymore." Zhou Fuliu said nonchalantly that the salt business now accounts for a small proportion, and if you give up, you will give up, it doesn't matter.

"Nope! Not only will we not give up, but we will also snatch this business! He Zhiyuan said domineeringly.

"Rob? How to rob? Zhou Fuliu asked. It was the first time she saw He Zhiyuan so domineering, and she couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"With the guns we have. Why didn't I spare any effort to persuade Lord Liang to develop steel and gunpowder? is to fight against the Japanese, as long as they are through the Japanese, they are not afraid that they will not be able to find evidence, and at that time, not only will the business be robbed, but I am afraid that the lives of the Lu family will be put on the line. ”

Zhou Fuliu said: "Are you so sure that the Japanese will definitely come here? Historically, the Japanese were mainly in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and the Japanese in Shandong were not serious. ”

"You're not as good as me in that regard. Historically, the Japanese mainly rebelled in the south because the south was rich. Now that our Juzhou has developed well and the people are rich, even if there is no leading party, the Japanese will come, it is only a matter of time before they come. ”

"Well, you're right, they're a bunch of robbers, and they go wherever there's a benefit. Our arrival has indeed changed the course of history, and it is right to take precautions as early as possible. ”

Just then, there was a knock on the door. A guy came in and said, "Gongzi He, Gongzi Liang is looking for you outside the door." ”

"Oh, let him in." He Zhiyuan said casually.

"Gongzi He is the son of Lord Liang's family. Why don't you go and greet you? The guy asked, surprised. He thought in his heart, this He Gongzi's pedigree is too big, right? The Yanai of the Zhizhou family's family also dares to pose like this?

"No, you just have to let him come."

The man said yes and left hesitantly. I thought to myself, I have to be careful, if I provoke this Yanai, it will be too unjust to beat me up.

However, this guy's worries were unnecessary, and after Liang Yuesong heard the guy's report, he didn't get angry, but went in happily.

This guy looked at Liang Yuesong's back and wondered, could it be that this Liang Gongzi is so good-tempered? is not only a cultural celebrity, but also a son of Zhizhou, or a big talent, won't he play a big name?

Liang Yuesong pushed the door and entered, and it was not surprising to see that Zhou Fuliu was also here. In his mind, the two of them should be together.

He said happily: "Mom and Dad, I'm here to pay back the money." ”

"How much silver did that mirror sell for?" He Zhiyuan asked him.

"That stupid b surnamed Lu didn't know how to bargain, I asked for 100,000 taels, he really gave 100,000 taels, I knew I wanted 200,000 taels." Liang Yuesong is still in the joy of making a fortune.

"He will be 100,000 taels, and if you want 200,000 taels, he will not be able to take it out." Zhou Fuliu took a fancy to Liang Yuesong and said happily.

Liang Yuesong took out 25,000 taels of Rongchang bills and said to He Zhiyuan: "Dad, the silver is given to you, I don't owe you anything." ”

He Zhiyuan took the silver and prepared to put it in his sleeve pocket. At this time, Zhou Fuliu was reluctant: "Hey! Did you really take it? ”

"Why can't you take it? I lent it to him, and now he is rich, and he lacks no silver. He Zhiyuan said.

"yes, I'm rich now. Speaking of which, it still sticks to your light. Liang Yuesong said.

"You'll have to pay attention later, though. The Lu family may think of something to deal with your family. In particular, let Lord Liang be careful. He Zhiyuan said.

"Isn't it just fighting with him for a mirror? Why do you have hatred? Liang Yuesong said lightly.

"You don't know, what you fought for that day was not a mirror, but face. For Lu Shaowen, this trip to Juzhou has lost face. He will definitely have a grudge against your family, the Zhou family, and our He family, we were talking about this matter just now, and you just happened to discuss it together. He Zhiyuan said to him.

Liang Yuesong saw that He Zhiyuan said so seriously, and also faced this problem squarely. He said: "Actually, I thought about it too, but now I have been controlled by my cheap daddy, who just lets me read, and doesn't let me do anything, and doesn't let me go out casually." So some things can't be done. ”

Zhou Fuliu said: "In fact, you can also help your current father on some government issues, after all, you are familiar with history and have more than 500 years of knowledge. You're totally promising. ”

"Yes, you know history better than either of us. You don't have to write every day, give more ideas to Lord Liang, if you influence him more in terms of governance. And next year is the year of the township exam, do you know the exam questions of this Shandong paper? He Zhiyuan said. Although he also knows the questions of next year's township exam, Xie Yuan's answer sheet is also memorized, but he can't crash at that time, right?

"Daddy is also preparing for the imperial examination?"

"Nonsense! Of course, you have to take the test. This is a shortcut to the upside, and if you want to do something big, you must take the imperial examination. He Zhiyuan said.

"It's on me. Not to mention that the middle has to solve the yuan, the middle move is very stable. Liang Yuesong said.

"There is also the next year's exam, and you have to help me get an answer sheet." He Zhiyuan spoke further.

"It's simpler. Dad, I've done you so much, you have to give me some benefits. Liang Yuesong returned to her previous appearance and began to bargain.

"You kid, you're still bargaining with me! Is there less of a benefit to you? If it weren't for me, you would have bought that mirror and made so much money? He Zhiyuan said with a smile.

"I saw that kid was disdainful of his mother, so I made a move. Then I thought that I had to pay the silver on the spot. Liang Yuesong said.

Zhou Fuliu said: "I know it's for your good, and I'll give you this benefit." Isn't Lord Liang bent on rising to the top? I can help him. ”

"Hey, what's the benefit, my cheap dad is an official fan." Liang Yuesong said.

He Zhiyuan raised his hand and patted Liang Yuesong's head pretendedly, and said angrily: "Why are you still like this!" Now we are all one faction, and only by quickly entering the court and entering the center of power can we make great achievements. Do you want to stay here for the rest of your life? ”

Liang Yuesong saw that He Zhiyuan was angry, so he stopped talking.

Zhou Fuliu continued: "My brother is now in charge of the government, and he wrote a few days ago that he may be promoted to the post of Langzhong of the Household Department in a while, and concurrently serve as the young James of the James Mansion. His advisor is Lord Xie Qian Xie of the cabinet, Lord Liang now has a good official and political reputation, if my brother is one or two more from it, he will be promoted soon, is this a big benefit? ”

After hearing this, Liang Yuesong hurriedly said: "It's too big! If my cheap dad had known this, he would have been so excited that his beard would have curled. ”

"It's not big, it's not small! Do you say that about your father? Zhou Fuliu said angrily.

At this point, the alliance of the He family, the Zhou family, and the Liang family was formally formed, and the three of them joined forces and began to make a series of great achievements that shocked the entire Ming Dynasty in Juzhou.

The take-off of Hejia Town is close at hand, and Juzhou will also become a model for the whole country in the near future. div
