Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Processed foods.

This commodity, which has a huge market in the future, has not yet taken shape today, and there are still many places to be explored, so this is undoubtedly a sunrise industry with great potential.

In the face of such huge profits, of course, Li Qi also thought about monopolizing, and he didn't want to be embarrassed to call himself a businessman. With his means, he can actually achieve a monopoly, but what's the use of this, even if he makes more money, he doesn't have a life to spend, it's not just a blank slate. What he needs to do most now is how to make this devastated Great Song Dynasty rich and strong, and he chose Zhongle Lele, which is naturally a matter of course. Supporting a part of the powerful businessmen to become the first batch of capitalists, only in this way can he get the benefits he wants.

If you want to be rich, you must first get rich, this has always been the economic concept he admires.

The last card in his hand had been played, and now it was time for the grain merchants to choose. He knew very well in his heart that in the eyes of those businessmen, cooperating with him was undoubtedly seeking the skin of the tiger, after all, the madman Li was not called for nothing.

But you must know that at the same time, Song Huizong is also putting pressure on the backstage of these grain merchants, for him, Li Qi's strategy is of great benefit to both the imperial court and for him personally, because once these grain merchants agree to cooperate with the Bureau of Commerce, then it means that he has more power in his hands, so he is also very happy to see the cooperation between the two sides.

More importantly, the concept of processed food thrown by Li Qi is indeed very attractive, and these grain merchants discussed with their backstage for three days and finally reached a consensus, that is, to cooperate with the Bureau of Commerce.

They thought to themselves that as long as the land is in their hands and the grain is in their hands, then they still have the initiative and can change according to the changes in the situation in the future. So, they saw it as a stopgap measure.

But after entering this pit, can they really climb out of it calmly? Richie expressed strong skepticism about this.

On this day, the Bureau of Commerce ushered in the most wealthy people in the capital, they signed a cooperation agreement with the Bureau of Commerce, of course, this cooperation agreement, is only a preliminary plan for the future, the most important of which is the establishment of the processed food factory and the expansion of foreign market plans, as for how to distribute the benefits. That has to go through more in-depth discussion before it can be formulated.

In addition, in the mediation of the Bureau of Commerce, these grain merchants also shook hands with the proprietors of those big restaurants, after all, the restaurant is a terminal sales for them, and the two sides are awkward, which is not good for anyone, and signed a cooperation letter for the next year, and the grain price is set at 190 yuan. That means that the retail price of grain will hover at 200 yuan.

The Bureau of Commerce's control of the grain industry has finally made a breakthrough, with currency in his left hand and grain in his right hand, and Li Qi's new law can finally show its strength.

It's a joy for all!

In order to keep their excitement alive. So Li Qi opened the bar for the first time during the day, invited them to the bar to celebrate the hard-won result, and invited Hong Bajin, Zhou Qing and other powerful businessmen.

This is undoubtedly a carnival faction belonging to the merchants, and everyone has sought out objects that are beneficial to them to exchange "feelings". The scene was extremely lively. Pleasure.

Richie is, of course, the most popular object, and everyone is asking for advice, of course. The most important thing is that they still want to know from Li Qi what the future policy of the imperial court will be.

Li Qi is an old fritter, and he knows what to say and what not to say, which makes everyone itch.

Just when everyone was talking, an uninvited guest came to the bar, it was Niu Gao.

When Li Qi saw Niu Gao, he was stunned for a moment, and then said "no company" to Hong Bajin and others, and then walked to a corner of the bar with Niu Gao and asked, "Is there a letter from Jiangnan?" ”

Since Li Qi was sent to Shi, he asked Niu Gao to be responsible for arranging the correspondence with Jiangnan.

"Hmm."

Niu Gao nodded, quickly took out a letter, and handed it over.

Li Qi hurriedly took it over and took a look, and the more he looked down, the more intense the smile on the corner of his mouth became, and he nodded and said, "Very good, very good, Qin Hui, you really didn't disappoint me." ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a trace of worry in his heart inexplicably, the more Qin Hui showed his amazing talent, the more worried he became, what kind of worry was caused by the history books of later generations, but the current situation caused it, he couldn't tell.

Niu Gao said again: "Bu Shuai, Huang Sanyuan and Jiangdu County's Zhizhi County have been escorted to Beijing." ”

Li Qi's eyes widened and he asked, "Where?" ”

Niu Gao said in a low voice: "Hui Bushuai, if you want to enter the city gate, you must have the official document of the patrol envoy, but the patrol envoy did not send the official document, so I can only temporarily put them in prison in the military camp outside the southern city." ”

It is worthy of Qin Hui, even these details are taken care of, if you want to be corrupt and bend the law, then God can't stop it. Li Qi was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said with a smile: "Very good." Obviously, Qin Hui had vaguely expected that Li Qi was going to use the public for personal gain, so he deliberately did not issue official documents, and ordered people to take the waterway, just to prevent people from catching the handle at that time, and now no matter how Li Qi deals with these two people, they can be regarded as evaporating from the world.

Li Qi suddenly felt a pang in his heart as he spoke, and quickly looked around, searched the crowd for a while, and said, "Where is Maqiao?" ”

Niu Gao said: "Oh, I just met Ma Qiao outside the door. ”

Li Qi hurriedly asked, "Then can you tell him about this?" ”

Niu Gao snorted and said, "Since we came back from Fengxiang, Ma Qiao came to ask me about the news of these two as soon as I was free, so I just sued him." ”

"Oops!"

Li Qi patted his head and said, "You wait here for me." ”

After he finished speaking, he found Wu Furong and said, "Uncle Wu, I have something to go out for, and I'll leave it to you here." ”

Wu Furong looked anxious about Li Qi, and quickly nodded and said, "You go, this place will be handed over to the old decay." ”

"Hmm."

Li Qi said hello to Hong Bajin and the others again, and then hurried out of the bar with Niu Gao, as soon as he got out of the bar, he suddenly stopped, and said: "Don't worry, don't worry, I'm afraid the two stunned people will have to run to inform the two people." ”

Saying that, he breathed a sigh of relief again, and rushed to the military camp in the southern suburbs with Niu Gao. But he far underestimated a vengeful heart.

In front of a church hall ten miles away in the southern suburbs. At this time, there were three people standing here, none other than Ma Qiao, the drunkard, and Lu Meimei's master and apprentice.

"I'm sorry, I can't let the three of you in without Bu Shuai's order."

The guards guarding the door stood in front of the door.

Ma Qiao took out a few strings of copper coins from his arms, and said with a smile: "This little brother, be accommodating, we have to go in and deal with some trivial matters." "How can he, a simple person, know how to bribe, this is all imitation of Li Qi.

It's a pity that who dares to take bribes in today's Dragon Guards. You must know that their boss is very terrifying, and this is undoubtedly not getting along with himself.

The soldier didn't look at it and said, "I'm sorry. ”

This is also thanks to Ma Qiao, if it were someone else, he would have been driven away a long time ago.

No, last time Bu Shuai went in like this, and the money he gave was not as much as mine, why didn't it work this time. Ma Qiao frowned and said, "Don't be too greedy, this money is already a lot." ”

"Really? You can feed them for a lifetime with this money? ”

Then. Suddenly, a voice sounded from behind.

"The villain sees Bu Shuai."

The soldier immediately saluted.

I saw Li Qi and Niu Gao riding over.

"Bu Shuai (Master)."

Lu Meimei hurriedly saluted, her eyes were a little evasive, and she didn't dare to look directly at Li Qi.

I didn't think I was in a hurry, and I still didn't get ahead of them after all. Li Qi raised his hand. Let Ma Qiao and the others stop talking for a while, and then walked straight in, and said lightly: "Assemble." ”

The three drunkards, master and apprentice, looked at each other, not understanding what Li Qi planned to do.

Give it a command. The sound of gongs and drums immediately sounded.

Knock knock!

In a moment, a column of soldiers was on the school grounds.

"Stand upright - take a break - report the number."

Even though Richie arrived suddenly, the soldiers went from assembling to platooning. All of them are orderly, without a trace of panic.

After the formation was completed, Li Qicai stepped forward, put his hands behind his back, and said loudly: "On the battlefield, the situation is ever-changing, sometimes we will face a few days, or even half a month without food, at that time, whether it is tree bark, or snakes, insects, rats and ants, it is our food, just right, more than 30 miles away from the place opened a new restaurant called Weiweixuan, all the dishes in the restaurant are made of snakes, insects, rats and ants, to provide you with a good opportunity to exercise your stomach, Today's task is to go to the Zuixianju Group Company to receive a subsidy of 20 Wen per person, and then go to the restaurant for dinner, this handsome treat, I hope you can learn a lot of means of survival in the wild while eating, and set off with your guys. ”

"Yes!"

Now that the soldiers were accustomed to Richie's surprise attack, they did not dare to have any opinions, and immediately returned to their dormitories and left the school yard with their pots and pans on their backs.

After all the soldiers left, Li Qicai looked at Lu Meimei and them, and said angrily: "Are you afraid that I won't give Meimei a chance to take revenge with my own hands and hand them over to Kaifeng Mansion, so I chose to come here first." ”

The three of them were speechless for a while.

Li Qi rolled his eyes and said, "Ma Qiao, you have been with me for so long, why don't you open your mind, there are so many soldiers here, what do you want to do?" In front of one or two hundred people? Wow! You're really out of the way. ”

Ma Qiaotou said: "If you can avenge your junior sister, you will fight for my life, and I will not hesitate to do it." ”

This idiot! Li Qi clapped his hands and said, "Tsk, you are so amazing!" ”

"I don't need you to say it, I know for myself."

"Uh, you're pretty modest."

"I know that, too."

Li Qi was completely speechless.

The drunkard suddenly said: "No, no, is it - Bu Shuai, did you just arrange that task, is it just to make room for us to take revenge." ”

Sweat! Do you need to be so direct? Li Qi smiled bitterly: "There is really a teacher and there must be a disciple, I didn't say that, in fact, ahem, there are some things that don't need to be said." ”

Speaking of this, how did the three of them still not understand Li Qi's intentions, they all showed gratitude, and Lu Meimei immediately knelt down and said, "Thank you, Master, for making it happen." As he spoke, he kowtowed three times in a row.

When Ma Qiao saw it, he quickly knelt down.

Before Li Qi could react, they had already finished knocking, and he felt helpless, and said: "Get up, this is what I promised you, and besides, you have also saved my life, so it is reasonable." I should all keep my promises. ”

As he spoke, he said to Niu Gao, "Go and bring people out." "Niu Gao is different from Yue Fei, not as brainless as Yue Fei, so Li Qi usually takes Niu Gao by his side for this kind of thing, and he doesn't dare to bother Yue Fei, otherwise I'm afraid it will take a lot of trouble.

"Yes."

Although Niu Gao is three or five thick, his mind is very cautious, he understands that at this time he only needs to obey orders, and the rest is not known.

Seeing that revenge is just around the corner, but at this time, Lu Meimei's heart is complicated. After all, time has passed, after all, she is kind-hearted, and she who should have been happy suddenly became very panicked.

Ma Qiao glanced at Lu Meimei and said softly: "Senior sister, let Brother Wei do such things, don't dirty your hands." ”

Lu Meimei did not speak.

I have heard Ma Qiao say countless sensual love words, or this sentence touched Li Qi the most, if a man really loves a woman, then he will first consider the other party's feelings at any time. At this point, Li Qi also sighed to himself, after all, he loved more than just a woman, and he had to think about it more complicated.

Soon. Niu Gao walked over with one in one hand, threw the two in front of Lu Meimei, and then stood beside Li Qi.

That Huang Sanyuan is of medium stature, with a face full of meat. The potholes, the skin is yellow, and at a glance you can tell that the body has been hollowed out. And Zhixian was short and fat, and he was originally thin and tender, but now he is long gone.

When the two of them saw the three drunkards, they were stunned, as if they couldn't believe their eyes, and the only trace of luck in their hearts was gone.

Li Qi stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "The people have already brought, please do it, if you feel that your IQ is not enough in this area, you can call Gao Yanei and them to help, they are better at this." With that, he sat down and asked Niu Gao to bring a pot of tea to quench his thirst.

Ma Qiao arched his hand and said: "Thank you for your kindness, we want to end this matter with our own hands." ”

The drunkard sneered and said, "Huang Yuanwai, I know the county, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come unharmed." ”

This is really an enemy meeting, and it is very red-eyed.

Zhixian was slightly stunned, suddenly knelt on the ground, and cried: "Little lady Lu, your father's death has nothing to do with me, I am innocent, it's all Huang Sanyuan's doing." ”

is worthy of being an official, at this time, I also know that the only breakthrough now is Lu Meimei, it seems that Jiangnan is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon! Li Qi had a hint of admiration for this situation.

That Huang Sanyuan is also a ruthless character, when he saw Lu Meimei, he knew that he was in a catastrophe, stood up, and said: "Today, my Huang Sanyuan fell into your hands, I have nothing to say, if you want to kill, you will kill." ”

"Good!"

As soon as this word came out, Ma Qiao kicked Huang Sanyuan directly, grabbed his shirt with one hand, flashed with a cold light in his right hand, raised a short knife high, and shouted angrily: "Take your life." ”

Almost instantly, a sharp dagger suddenly appeared in the drunkard's hand.

"Master, Senior Brother, please stop."

Lu Meimei suddenly shouted.

At this time, I'm afraid that only Lu Meimei can stop Maqiao.

At this time, the short knife was only one centimeter away from Huang Sanyuan's chest, but Ma Qiao still stopped his hand and turned his head to look at Lu Meimei.

Lu Meimei stepped forward, frowned and looked down at Huang Sanyuan and said: "Huang Yuanwai, my father died in a fit of anger because he lost to you in cooking, and today I will try to compete with you again, and I want to gamble with you." ”

Huang Sanyuan didn't hesitate at all, and said with a smile: "It's not Lu An's daughter, okay, I'll bet with you." ”

Li Qi shook his head with a smile, and said secretly, don't gamble if you have the ability!

Ma Qiao frowned and said, "Senior sister, why are you so troubled?" Wouldn't it be nice to kill him with a knife for your brother? ”

Lu Meimei said: "Senior brother, please fulfill me this time." ”

Ma Qiao pondered for a moment, got up and said, "Yes, although Uncle Lu died because of you, he was not killed by your own hands, if he killed you like this, I'm afraid you won't accept it." He said and suddenly said towards the county: "The county, let's be bored to watch, so let's bet a little bigger, and then put the lives of the two of us, if you don't agree, I will kill you now." ”

You've said that, can I not agree? That situation knows that the county wants to cry without tears.

Lu Meimei hurriedly said: "Senior brother." ”

Ma Qiao didn't wait for her to finish speaking, so he preemptively said: "Senior sister, this cooking competition is up to the brothers, only in this way can they be convinced of the loss." ”

"Poof!"

As soon as he finished saying this, Li Qi squirted out a mouthful of tea. People can't be narcissistic to this extent, in cooking, what else do you do besides chopping wood? (To be continued)
