Yu Ran said: "My Grandpa Shanshi is here to send us silver, didn't we use 10,000 taels of silver to account for two percent last year?" This is to give dividends to come. ”

Li Zhi said in surprise, "It's less than a year, so there's a benefit?" ”

At that time, Li Zhi gave the Lu family 20,000 taels, of which 10,000 was borrowed, and he still did not go to Taiyuan to investigate.

Not only did he not ask for more shares, but he even offered to propose that he would not participate in the replacement of the same shares after 10,000 taels, which was not just as simple as kindness, but full confidence in the coal mining in that place.

He remembered saying that the 10,000 taels should be used by the Lu family to help him pave the road, and when he had time to spare time, he would see if he could find another location for coal deposits.

The local forces in Shanxi are very strong, especially in terms of coal resources, and it is not easy for outsiders to obtain a mining right.

As for Lu Yu himself, Yu Ran should call his uncle and grandfather, probably in order to deepen the relationship between them, he has always insisted on this name.

"Grandpa Shanshi said, when he robbed the Jinshan mine, he found something strange, it turned out that the one was mining a rich mine, but they hid it very deeply, and did not vigorously invest in mining, but took a piecemeal approach, that is, to avoid the government to collect excessive taxes. After the Lu family participated, the underground secrets were discovered, so after a large amount of investment, the scale came together, and huge profits could be realized in a few months. ”

In fact, the Lu family really united many local forces in Taiyuan Mansion to participate in it, otherwise they would not have been able to take that vein.

The reason for this lies in the intricacies of local forces, and they want to dominate one family, and it turns out that that family is an example.

The real situation is that after the Lu family gave Li Zhi two percent, there were no four percent left that actually belonged to them.

Therefore, Li Zhi intends to gradually give up the two percent in exchange for the independent mining right in another place.

Its nature is somewhat like spending money to buy off local forces, which is also in line with the local market trend, and of course, it is based on Li Zhi's belief that the coal resources there are worth investing.

On the other hand, as the only entrenched family of the Shandong clan to sit firmly outside their hometown, Li Zhi's support for the Taiyuan Lu clan is targeted.

You must know that Shanxi has the world's leading coal resources in the whole Tang Dynasty, and the coal industry is bound to become a pivotal position in Shanxi's economy in the future.

If it can achieve a national coal dominance situation, Taiyuan Lu's achievements can help it go further.

"There is no need to rush about dividends, and it is less than a year, presumably the old man is here at this time, there must be other things, right?" Li Zhi smiled.

"I can't hide anything from you!" Yu Ran counted his forehead with his index finger, his face full of doting, "There is another reason, it is that the Lu family has given our family a spot on a mineral vein between Hongdong County and Zhaocheng County, but I don't know what the reason is, Jinzhou County ordered Mei Taizhong to obstruct it in every possible way, and the preliminary exploration was forcibly interrupted several times." However, Grandpa Shanshi is very optimistic about that place, and came to ask you, if he is interested, he will find a way to help us take it down. ”

"Hongdong and Zhaocheng are under the jurisdiction of Jinju? It's just a big county under the jurisdiction of a county, where does it come from, and you don't take Taiyuan Mansion Yin in your eyes? Li Zhi was more and more surprised.

Lu Yu Lu Shanshi is not only the Yin of Taiyuan Mansion, but also hangs the title of a Hedong Jiedu envoy, which is a member of the court from the three products, and Taiyuan is the northern capital of the Tang Empire.

A small Jinju county magistrate actually dared to confront such a figure, I am afraid that this matter is not simple.

Sure enough, Yu Ran continued: "It is said that there is another powerful person behind that person, it seems that he is a close relative of the martial arts family, and he also took a fancy to it." ”

Li Zhi suddenly realized, "It turns out that the martial arts family is doing it again, it seems that Old Man Lu is under a lot of pressure!" ”

Yu Ran shook her head, "I just listened to it, and I don't know the specifics." ”

"Okay, I know, let's go in, I want to hear what Old Man Lu has to say."

Li Zhi said, took Yu Ran's little hand and returned, and saw Lu Yu chatting with King Ming.

Seeing Li Zhi returning, King Ming pointed at him and laughed, "No, this kid is here." Brother Shanshi, you ask him yourself, what did he do in the south! ”

Hearing the title of King Ming, Li Zhixin smiled bitterly again, this generation was so chaotic that he didn't know how to open his mouth.

Just like the two in front of him, one is his father-in-law, and the other is his wife's uncle, thanks to the fact that he has always called Old Man Lu before, otherwise in front of King Ming, a grandfather would hinder his face.

Obviously, Lu Yu had paid attention to this point and took the initiative to mention this matter, thinking to avoid inadvertent embarrassment: "Text, you are a first-class loyal king, in this private occasion, don't talk too politely between us, just call me an old man." ”

Although the Tang Dynasty had a clear hierarchy and extremely strict hierarchy of noble and low, it also respected the first virtue and filial piety, and in private occasions, the mutual address was still based on understanding.

Lu Yu continued, "I'm talking to your stepfather about what happened during this time, and it's not a small thing for you to make a lot of noise in the south!" ”

Li Zhile said: "Old Man Lu, your tone is the same as that of King Ming when he saw me, and even the words are not much worse!" ”

"It is said that it is out of the concern of the elders, but there is a premise, the size of the matter is different, the key is whether the thing is done correctly or not! You're doing the right thing this time, and if I were the first person I've met you, I'd say the same thing. "It was Sun Yunshan who spoke.

After a period of greetings, Li Zhi couldn't help but mention the coal mine.

Only then did Lu Yu mention, "I have investigated him in Jinzhou County, and I am not sure that he came from the command of someone from the martial arts, but it is true that the person behind him is a force, that is, Guanghui Temple in the Dahuaishu Mountain District of Hongdong County, which is said to have the nature of some cultivators. ”

Three words of big locust tree, Li Zhi is not unfamiliar, it is a famous immigration county in history, later generations of modern times before his rebirth, there are still many places to spread the saying of "ask my ancestors where they are, Shanxi Hongdong big locust tree".

At the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the Central Plains was in turmoil for many years, and disasters and famines were frequent, while Shanxi, especially in the southern part of Jin, had a prosperous economy and dense population, and became the main area for outward immigration in the early Ming Dynasty.

In the period of up to half a century, Shanxi has immigrated more than a dozen times, Hongdong County locust tree is a major immigration station at that time, Shandong, Hebei has a folk song: "Whoever has two petals of little toenails, who is the child under the big locust tree."

Li Zhi was puzzled: "What, it's actually a Buddhist force?" How can it be involved with the samurai? ”

Lu Yu sighed, "Some people seem to know a little bit about the details, but after I asked, they looked taboo and profound, only implying that I was not easy to provoke, and it seemed that a certain high-ranking official of the martial arts family had frequently been in and out." ”

"It's true that I can't be sure based on this alone, but that Mei Taizhong's attitude is obviously problematic, and he looks fearless!" Li Zhi has this view.

Lu Yu added, "My people went to explore several times, and it was not uncommon for someone to block it, I originally thought it was due to local protectionism of the locals, but when I came back, I saw that the exploration behavior was repeatedly persuasive, and finally someone came forward to threaten, threatening that Taiyuan Mansion is a fart, and the territory of the Wu family is not something that anyone can easily touch." This statement is somewhat contrary to the information I have received. ”

"Big Locust Tree Guanghui Temple?" King Ming suddenly interjected, "Brother Shanshi, you don't care about this matter in the future, let the text come forward to deal with it!" ”

As soon as these words came out, not only Lu Zhi was confused for a while, but Li Zhi was also a little confused.

But King Jiancheng then gave a sentence, "Text, you pay attention to this matter, there are cultivators in Guanghui Temple." ”

Li Zhi immediately understood, and nodded with a smile at Lu Yu, "Old Man Lu, leave this matter to me, the Lu family should not go for the time being, let's talk about it when it is resolved." ”

This topic is no longer mentioned, the second king brought up after drinking a few glasses of wine to say goodbye, the king of Linhuai County stayed, Li Zhi sent it far away, he knew that the king of Ming would have something to say.

"The Great Locust Tree Guanghui Temple exists on the list of secret guards, and the situation inside is not simple, do you think you can eradicate it through the cultivation world?"

On the road before, King Ming had been communicating with King Jiancheng in a low voice, just discussing the matter.

"Will this affect future exploration?"

"Grass can startle the snake, and sometimes a side shock will make the situation tend to be favorable, and if you blindly shrink your hands and feet, you may fall into an endless vicious circle."

"It seems a little inappropriate to make a move in the name of the cultivation world, is it more likely to produce an effect by pretending to be a vendetta in the rivers and lakes? Otherwise, once those people realize the threat and lie dormant for a while, the difficulty of detection will increase exponentially! ”

"You're not afraid of involving you and the Taiyuan Lu family?"

"That's why I can't pass through the cultivation world, I will arrange a dispute, and then make Guanghui Temple disappear overnight that night. The Wu family is not stupid, even if they didn't find out the target of suspicion at that time, and then my coal mine drove into Zhaocheng County, they could be connected. So, I decided to set a trap there and wait for the people who went to find out the inside story, and kill them one by one, so that I could eradicate as many deterrence as possible before they reacted, and try to find more clues in the people who came! ”

"Isn't that too bloody?" King Jiancheng asked questions on the side.

"Eradication, there will be slaughter, the strong is the king is the most basic survival rule in the cultivation world, this is also a hint to the other party, the problem can only be solved through cultivation means, no matter how many cultivators their martial arts cultivate, they are not people in the cultivation world after all, so that they can deeply understand the cruelty inside, and their actions will be restrained!"

King Ming seemed to understand better than King Jiancheng, "You can give it a try as the text says, the martial arts family will not use official power, after all, we have been suspecting that the martial arts queen does not know, just take this opportunity to verify it!" ”

"Will it bring any hidden dangers to the Lu family or Zhengqing Wenqitang?" King Jiancheng is still a little worried.

"It's better like this," King Ming suggested, "This matter will not be decided for the time being, let's go back and ask the Secret Guards for advice, after all, they have been dealing with the cultivation world!" ”

After pondering for a long time, King Jiancheng said, "Then let's see!" Text, I also agree with your plan, but we must try to ensure the safety of all parties, don't reveal half a point to the Lu family after you go back, they are not from here, and they can't afford to be involved! ”

Back at Zhanyuan Pavilion, Li Zhi didn't talk about such topics, but asked about the Lu family's other businesses: "How is the fifth uncle's high-grade Xifeng wine selling?" ”

This person is Lu Ting's fifth brother, Lu Ting's fifth son, the original Taiyuan City's famous gentleman's son, although he has begged for a five-room wife, he is only fifty years old, he still fights bravely, and flirts with a good family, although there is no big evil, it is inevitable to cause trouble everywhere.

The original owner of Jinshan Mine was provoked by this person, and later became the biggest enemy of the Lu family.

He is now in frequent contact with Chang'an City, Li Zhi has seen it a few times, and his character is not so bad that it is irretrievable, but he has a stronger sense of conflagration.

Lu Ting said with a smile: "Now Xiao Wu is amazing, in addition to the coal mining industry, the Lu family has made a great contribution." Not only did he sell Xifeng wine to Taiyuan City, but he could see his business in the entire Shanxi territory! ”

Li Zhi also smiled, "The fifth uncle is a business talent, I heard Yu Ran say, the last time I saw him, he also took off his fancy clothes, and he was dressed very calmly!" ”

Hearing about his fifth son, Lu Yu said with satisfaction, "This kid seems to be a different person now, his manners are more regular, and he also knows that he has gone home, and he seems to be in contact with him to do bigger business recently!" ”
