Chapter Twenty-Six——From Jiangdong to the General Trend of the World
Chapter Twenty-Seven—The Three Great Families on the Move
"From uncle, I want to restart the Yangtze River commercial transport!"
Hearing Lu Yi's words, Lu Ji looked at Lu Yi in surprise as if he had suffered a heavy blow, and he didn't even know that the book in his hand had fallen to the ground. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Lu ...... Lu Yi, you said you want to restart the Yangtze River commercial transport? ”
"Hmm!" Lu Xun nodded at the landing performance.
"But Lu Yi, do you know why your father gave up the Yangtze River trade in the first place?"
Lu Xun groaned for a while and nodded at Lu Ji: "I know!" ”
As for the reason why Lu Kang gave up the Yangtze River commercial transportation at the beginning, Lu Yi had already guessed in his heart.
It's nothing more than that the other three major families in Jiangdong were jealous of the Lu family and monopolized the trade on the Yangtze River, and then joined forces to force the Lu family to give up the trade on the Yangtze River.
After all, for the Lu family, which is the weakest among the four major families in Jiangdong and has the smallest number of descendants, it is simply an egg hitting a stone if they want to fight against the alliance of the three major families.
"Now that Zhang, Zhu, and Gu are eyeing each other, no matter whether we restart the Yangtze River commercial transportation or not, they will not let go of our Lu family!" Lu Yi glanced at Lu Ji, who looked panicked, and said: "Uncle, don't look at the righteousness of in-law between the Gu family and our Lu family, but seeing that the Gu family is standing behind the Zhang and Zhu families this time, you know that the Gu family also wants to annex our Lu family deep down." ”
"Isn't that what the so-called family is?"
After listening to Lu Yi's words, Lu Ji's heart also understood a little bit of the situation that the Lu family was facing at this time.
Don't look at Lu Ji's youth, but Lu Ji, as a child of a family, still has some knowledge.
It's just that Lu Ji doesn't pay much attention to it in ordinary times, and only immerses his mind in the classics of the sages and saints.
Although he did not oppose Lu Ji's proposal, Lu Ji was still a little worried in his heart.
"But ......"
Seeing Lu Ji speak, Lu Yi had already guessed in his heart that Lu Ji was still worried in his heart.
"Please rest assured from my uncle, it's just some river bandits! Even if my grandfather is no longer there, our Lu family is not something they can covet! ”
Hearing Lu Yi's words, Lu Ji knew that Lu Yi had already made a decision in his heart, and he couldn't listen to any words of dissuasion.
In fact, Lu Ji also knew that he was not suitable for the control of a family, and he did not have that much courage.
Glancing at Lu Yi bitterly, he saw that Lu Yi's face was full of determination, and Lu Ji could only reply helplessly: "Since this is the case, then Lu Yi will go, but please be careful on the way!" ”
"Don't worry, uncle, I'll be fine!" Lu Yi could hear Lu Ji's answer, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but have a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Then, I'll go and prepare first!" ”
As the words fell, Lu Yi turned around and prepared to step out.
Lu Ji looked at Lu Yi's back, his brows furrowed.
Just when Lu Yi's feet were about to step out of the threshold, Lu Ji finally made a decision in his heart, stretched out his hand to Lu Yi's back, and said, "Lu Yi, you wait a minute!" ”
"What's the matter, from uncle?"
Hearing Lu Ji's words, Lu Yi stopped, turned around, and looked at Lu Ji suspiciously.
"Lu Yi, or you will be the head of the family!"
"From Uncle, You ......"
Lu Yi listened to what Lu Ji said, and his face was surprised.
Ignoring the look of surprise on Lu Yi's face, Lu Ji said to himself: "Lu Yi, I know that I am like this myself, and it is not good for me to manage a family at all. I don't have a big heart, I just want to learn more about the thoughts of the sages and sages, and then I can do what I want to do. ”
"I know Lu Yi's ability, and I believe in your ability!"
"The only thing the Lu family can rely on now is you!"
Lu Yi heard Lu Ji's words and sighed: "But from uncle, you are from your grandfather's son-in-law, I am just from my grandson, how can I be qualified to control the Lu family?" ”
Regarding what Lu Yi said, Lu Ji shook his head and said that he did not agree.
"What about Congsun, isn't he also a descendant of the Lu family, why is he not qualified!"
"I'm young now, even if I control the Lu family and hold the title of the head of the Lu family, how many people can obey me."
"The Lu family will not fall only in the hands of you, Lu Yi!"
Lu Yi listened to Lu Ji's words and was silent.
He knew that what Lu Ji said was not wrong, but he also knew that Lu Ji's ability was actually much stronger than him, but unfortunately he couldn't convince the public because he was young, and Lu Ji's mind was not above the family.
Seeing that Lu Yi fell into silence, Lu Ji couldn't help but continue to say in order to finalize Lu Yi's succession as the head of the family as soon as possible: "Lu Yi, don't you want to revitalize the Lu family?" Then why can't he take over as the head of the Lu family in order to revitalize the Lu family? There are only two of us in the Lu family's lineage, if you don't take over, do you really want me, a yellow-mouthed child, to support the entire Lu family? ”
After hearing what Lu Ji said, Lu Yi couldn't help but sigh.
Indeed, as Lu Ji said, would Lu Yi bear to put all the burden of revitalizing the entire family on the body of Yihuangkou Xiaoer?
Since he couldn't bear to let a yellow-mouthed child take on such a heavy burden, he could only carry it by himself.
"That is the case, then I will first replace my uncle as the head of the family, and then return the position of the head of the family to my uncle after my uncle and the crown!"
After the words were finished, Lu Yi bowed his hand to Lu Ji's figure.
Hearing Lu Yi's words, Lu Ji knew in his heart that this was the biggest concession Lu Yi could make now.
"Let's take it for the time being, anyway, there are still many years before I and the crown, who can tell what happened at that time."
Thinking of this, Lu Ji looked at Lu Yizuo's figure and nodded slightly: "Then trouble Lu Yi first!" ”
As soon as the words fell, Lu Ji picked up the book that fell from his hand because of surprise when Lu Yi came in before, and looked at it.
Lu Yi saw that Lu Ji put his mind into the book, so he didn't speak again. After bowing to Lu Ji's figure again, Lu Yi silently retreated.
Five days later, everything had been arranged and Lu Yi, who was ready to sail, came to the ferry port of the Wusong River.
And when Lu Yi's figure appeared, there were already people in the crowd on the ferry who were already eyeing Lu Yi.
Seeing Lu Yi's movements in the past few days, the people of the three major families who were secretly staring at Lu Yi in the crowd couldn't help frowning.
After all, they were only servants of the three major families, and their knowledge was limited, so they couldn't guess the motives of Lu Yi's trip.
For them, Lu Yi appeared on the ferry at this time, and nine times out of ten he was afraid that he wanted to run.
In fact, if Lu Yi really ran away, then it would be very easy for the three major families to annex the Lu family.
It's just that Zhang Yun, Zhu Huan, and Gu Yong, as the heads of the three major families, have already determined in their hearts that Lu Yi will never run, because once Lu Yi runs away, the Lu family with only Lu Ji left will become the meat at the fingertips of the three major families.
The servant who was secretly watching him thought about it for a while, and finally decided to return to the mansion and report the situation on the ferry to his master.
After the heads of the three major families learned about Lu Yi's situation at this time, his heart once again flooded with his own plans, and he couldn't help but become impatient.
