Recommended reading: Overnight, the name of "Huguang Li Sheng" spread all over the streets and alleys of Yangzhou City, and the song and words sung by Li Hongyu were deeply loved by people, and were widely sung among the people, especially in the Qinlou Chu Pavilion.

Li Hongyu was very pleased with this, and it was not in vain that he showed off his literary brilliance with a shy face that night, and after he became famous, he could wait for the powerful people in Jiangnan to come to visit, after all, vassal elegance is still very popular in the elite circle.

However, before that, Li Hongyu has to solve one thing, that is, the overseas trade quota bidding conference on the first day of June, and sell those quotas first.

Because there are many rumors circulating in the market that are not conducive to overseas trade, Li Hongyu is very troubled by this, after all, even if he talks nonsense, how can he clear the negative impact of those rumors?

Fortunately, Li Hongyu did not need to convince too many businessmen, as long as the twenty places could be sold, he would have enough funds to start overseas trade-related matters.

"Here, here's the number plate I got for you, follow me to the bidding conference tomorrow."

On the evening of the last day of May, Li Hongyu went to Yang Li'er's residence to look for her and gave her a number plate, which according to the rules set by the Customs Department could only enter the auction site, and a number plate could only bring a maximum of two people.

"You're going to join in the fun tomorrow?" Yang Li'er couldn't help but be surprised when she saw this, to be honest, she was not optimistic about Daming's opening of overseas trade like everyone else, and there were too many unfavorable factors.

"It's not about making fun, it's about grabbing quotas." Li Hongyu smiled and corrected Yang Li'er and said, "Overseas trade is a huge cornucopia, once you pass this village, there will be no such shops!" ”

"You...... What money are you going to waste? Yang Li'er was stunned when she heard this, and looked at Li Hongyu in surprise and asked.

"This is not a waste, but a risky investment, the greater the risk, the more reward, since the emperor opened the customs department, it means that he wants to collect taxes from overseas trade to fill the inner treasury.

”

Li Hongyu laughed and explained to Yang Li'er, "Although you don't like Lord Qincha, I have to say that this person is still very methodical, this time he gave up his comfortable position in the court to take charge of the Customs Department, and he will definitely go all out to achieve overseas trade matters." ”

"As the saying goes, the people don't fight with the officials, if that dog official fills his pockets and swallows all the money you earn, how will you deal with it?"

Yang Li'er saw that Li Hongyu wanted to participate in overseas trade matters, and the whole person immediately became anxious, and hurriedly stopped, when the time comes, those businessmen who have obtained quotas will not become fish on the chopping board and be slaughtered by that dog official?

"Those who achieve great things will not be confined to the small profits in front of them." Li Hongyu knew that Yang Li'er was for his good, so he smiled and said, "Overseas trade is very profitable, if Lord Qincha can achieve even rain and dew, then it is bound to make the merchants who supply them look at it, and they will get greater rewards at that time." ”

"Besides, if Lord Qincha can get the support of the merchants, it will also be a talisman for him, so it will be difficult for outsiders to touch him, so how can Lord Qincha ruin the good situation for his own selfish interests?" Saying that, Li Hongyu asked with a smile.

He knew very well that once the overseas trade was successful, it would inevitably attract the covetousness of all the forces in the officialdom of the capital, so it was very important to get the support of those suppliers, and only by being an internal iron plate could he free up his hands to deal with the outside world with all his might

"Brother Li, this matter is too risky, you better think twice." Yang Li'er saw that Li Hongyu had made up her mind, and she seemed to have some truth in what she said, she knew that she couldn't make Li Hongyu change her mind, so she could only persuade her with good words.

"I have already thought about things very clearly, this is a once-in-a-lifetime business opportunity, not only me, but you also have to make every effort to obtain quotas, only in this way can you consolidate the position of the Yang Gang Leader in the Cao Gang."

Li Hongyu smiled disappreciatively when he heard this, and then said meaningfully to Yang Li'er, he was not alarmist, in his plan, in order to ensure the smooth transportation of overseas trade goods, the leader of the Cao Gang must get a quota, only in this way can everyone be a group of interests with a common interest base.

In other words, if the leader of the Cao Gang refuses to join the overseas trade, then Li Hongyu will definitely find a way to get rid of him for the sake of safety, at least let him no longer serve as the gang leader, and choose a person from the Cao Gang who supports overseas trade to take charge of the Cao Gang.

For this reason, Li Hongyu has made corresponding arrangements, once Yang Li'er is unwilling to get the quota, then someone will win the quota, Li Hongyu will give him to the future gang leader of the Cao Gang, so that he will take the same boat as himself.

"Brother Li, I'm alone now, even if I want to win the quota, I'm powerless."

Yang Li'er's expression was quite stunned, she originally thought that Li Hongyu wanted to take her to join in the fun, but she didn't expect to let her go to win the place, and then shook her head at Li Hongyu, now she can be said to be fleeing, penniless.

"What's the matter, as long as you can get the money together within a month." Li Hongyu naturally knew Yang Li'er's current situation, so he said with a smile, "By then, I think the Qin Gang Leader has regained his freedom." ”

"As far as I know, Lord Qincha doesn't seem to have the intention of punishing Gang Leader Yang, if you can get a place and plead with Lord Qincha and clarify that it has nothing to do with the assassination incident, then Lord Qincha will release Gang Leader Yang in ten likely."

As he spoke, Li Hongyu's face turned pale and said solemnly, "Miss Yang, this is a great opportunity to rescue Gang Leader Yang!" ”

"Okay, I'll go tomorrow!" Yang Li'er's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she was moved by Li Hongyu's words, now she has no other way, it is better to give it a go according to what Li Hongyu said, so that there may be a glimmer of life.

Seeing that Yang Li'er agreed, Li Hongyu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and after greeting Yang Li'er for a while, he got up to say goodbye, preparing to recharge his energy to deal with tomorrow's bidding.

"Miss, I think Gongzi Li is really good to you, not only saved Miss's life one after another, but also cares about the safety of the helper." After Li Hongyu left, Aunt Mei, who was standing behind Yang Li'er, couldn't help laughing and looked at Yang Li'er with a smile.

Aunt Mei is a person who has come from the past and has rich social experience, so she naturally doesn't think that Li Hongyu will be so good to Yang Li'er for no reason, she must be in love with Yang Li'er, otherwise she wouldn't chase Yang Li'er in the casino.

Although Li Hongyu does not have the same illustrious background as the third son, it seems that his family background is not much worse, the key is that he can still share the joys and sorrows with Yang Li'er, and this infatuation alone is rare in the world.

Besides, Li Hongyu is gentle and elegant, dignified in appearance, and his appearance and temperament are even better than those of the third son, plus he has an excellent literary talent, which can be described as a perfect match for Yang Li'er.

"Aunt Mei, Li Hongyu is a person who pities fragrance and cherishes jade, and is very good to every woman."

Yang Li'er's cheeks suddenly turned red when she heard this, and she opened her mouth to explain, but she felt warm in her heart, since she left the casino last time and was attacked, she has actually been under the protection of Li Hongyu, and she has extremely complicated feelings for Li Hongyu in her heart.

"Miss, Aunt Mei is from the past, give Miss a reminder, it is not easy for a woman to meet a man who is willing to share the joys and sorrows with her in her life, Miss must grasp it, otherwise she will regret it at that time."

Aunt Mei saw two red glows flying on Yang Li'er's cheeks, knowing that she was told by herself, so she persuaded bitterly, she naturally hoped that Yang Li'er could have a good home, and from the time she spent with Li Hongyu, Li Hongyu was a man worthy of trust.

Yang Li'er's eyes suddenly became a little dazed when she heard this, and she couldn't help but recall the bits and pieces when she was with Li Hongyu, she didn't know why, she always felt that Li Hongyu was like a departure from him, so that she couldn't understand Li Hongyu's thoughts about her for a while.

It's early morning.

"Childe, it's not good, the news I got just now, the Jade Building is gone." Li Honggao, who was asleep, was awakened by a hurried voice, and a subordinate outside the window reported to him.

"Gone out of the water?" Li Hongyu was taken aback when he heard this, "walking water" means catching fire, Jade Building is the venue for tomorrow's overseas trade quota bidding conference, and then he got out of bed, opened the door and asked the person in a deep voice, "How is the fire?" ”

"Hui Gongzi, according to the people who came to report the news, the fire is very big, although the soldiers patrolling the street and the surrounding neighbors are fighting the fire now, I am afraid that it will be burned to rubble." Hearing this, the subordinate hurriedly replied.

"It's finally here!" Li Hongyu's face suddenly turned cold, and he said a cold sentence in his mouth, and then let his subordinates wave his hand to let him leave, turn around and go back to the house to continue sleeping in his back room.

The reason why Li Hongyu behaved so calmly was because he had already guessed that the sea smugglers did not want the bidding conference to be held, and there was a chance that there would be some trouble from it, and the Jade Building had the highest chance of being threatened as the venue.

Therefore, Li Hongyu has prepared a corresponding plan, and if something happens to the Jade Building, he will follow the plan, so as not to mess up at that time.

The arsonist didn't know that Li Hongyu had already sent someone to secretly guard the Jade Tower, and their identities would be exposed as soon as they made such a fuss, and they would definitely be found by Shun Teng to find the main messenger behind the scenes, and this main messenger must be the leader of the overseas smuggling syndicate, which is exactly what Li Hongyu wants to see.

Early the next morning, the people in Yangzhou City began to talk about the fire in the Jade Building that caused a stir last night, and the Jade Building, which was originally a famous restaurant in Yangzhou City, was burned into ruins by a fire, which was really surprising.

Compared with the people, the merchants from all over the city gathered in Yangzhou City are keenly smelling the smell of provocation from this matter, everyone knows that the Jade Building is the venue of the bidding meeting for the quota of overseas trade suppliers selected by the Customs Department, and now there must be someone deliberately doing it in the inexplicable fire.

As for the mastermind behind this matter, some people speculate that someone from the Cao Gang did it, after all, Yang Xiaotian, the leader of the Cao Gang, is still in prison.

However, more businessmen think that this matter was done by those who smuggled, and the Cao Gang is now fighting fiercely among the internal factions, where can there be time to deal with the matter of the Jade Building, and from the perspective of conflict of interest, once the overseas trade is opened, it will be a huge blow to the smuggling at sea, and those smuggling guys will naturally not be restrained.

It's just that this approach is indeed a bit excessive, no matter how to say that the Customs Department is subordinate to Emperor Wanli, what kind of face does they make Lord Qincha lose face if they do this?
