"What do you mean, Your Highness, our Lu clan not only agreed to withdraw from the marriage, but also was willing to withdraw from the suppression of industry and commerce, isn't this enough to show our sincerity?" Hearing Li Su's refusal, Lu Zuo's face sank, in fact, he already felt that Li Su was wrong just now, and just now after he put forward his conditions, he asked so much nonsense, and now that he thinks about it, it seems that the other party is playing with himself.

"Hahaha~" Li Su suddenly laughed, and after a long while, he stopped and said, "Sincerity? Mr. Lu, you don't feel blushing when you say this word? Now that you five surnames and seven hopes, these big families have fallen behind, to be honest, whether you can withdraw or not, for me Li Su, there is no meaning at all, as for agreeing to withdraw from the marriage, ......"

When Li Su said this, he stared at Lu Zuo's eyes like a torch and said: "As for the divorce, don't say that it seems that I, Li Su, am begging you, I want to decide the woman of the Cui family, whether you withdraw from the marriage or not, in fact, for me, there is no impact at all!" ”

"King Qi, what do you mean by this, aren't you afraid that our Lu clan will hold a wedding soon, so that you will never get anyone?" Lu Zuo knew that he must not back down at this time, so he was extremely tough.

"Wedding?" A fierce sneer suddenly appeared on Li Su's face, "Then you can try, but I dare to guarantee that on the day before the wedding, that Lu Hong Lu Gongzi will definitely die unexpectedly, and there will definitely be no trace of the murderer, just like when you attacked me!" ”

"You ......" Lu Zuo didn't expect Li Su to even say murderous words, without caring about his reputation as King of Qi. So I couldn't help but be speechless for a while, but as a result, an old face was flushed, and his beard was raised high, but he didn't know what to say?

"Your Royal Highness King Qi, don't deceive people too much, my son Lu Hong has no grievances with you, and you robbed his fiancée first, and now you are threatening his life. Aren't you afraid that I will take this matter to your majesty? At this moment, Lu You, who had been standing solemnly on the side and did not speak, suddenly opened his mouth and scolded angrily. Lu Hong is his only son, and he usually treats him as a treasure. Now seeing that Li Su was threatening his son's life, he was naturally furious.

"Hahaha~, since you are afraid that others will hurt your son. Then let me ask you, my father obviously knew that it was your Lu clan who sent people to attack me, but he couldn't be angry with my son because he couldn't find evidence, and now if I kill one of your Lu clan's children, how do you think my father will react? Li Su also replied without hesitation. Comparing his heart to his heart, as a father, Li Shimin has long hated the Lu family, but as an emperor, there are many things that he can't help himself, so he can only endure it.

Lu You was also speechless by Li Yu's sharp rebuttal. In fact, in the struggle of interest groups like theirs, there is no right or wrong at all, no matter what means are used, it is normal, and as for human life, it can be sacrificed at any time. Just like Wang Dulong of the Yellow River Gang, he was originally a child of their Lu family, and he changed his face to enter the Yellow River Gang for the sake of the family, and in the end, because of the family's order, he died like a moth to a fire, but unfortunately he died in the end and was worthless.

"Your Highness. So what do you mean by that, how should this matter be resolved? At this moment, Lu Zuo suddenly said with red eyes, now he is like a gambler who has lost all his chips, and he has no support at all in front of Li Su, because people don't care about what he can come up with.

"Hehe, if Mr. Lu had said this earlier, we wouldn't have needed so much tongue." Seeing that the other party gave in, Li Su finally put his mind at ease, lay down again with a smile, picked up the hot soup next to him and drank two sips, although it was a little cold, but it was just enough to enter his stomach. …,

"It's very simple to break this matter, you Lu came up with a reason not to damage the reputation of the Cui family and Miss Cui, and took the initiative to withdraw from the marriage, but this can only be regarded as the compensation you made for the original attack on me, after the divorce, we will write off the incident that attacked me at the beginning, and I will never use this matter as an excuse to take revenge on you Lu in the future!" Li Su said lightly.

In fact, with his cautious eyes, he didn't intend to let go of the Lu family at first, but he was dissuaded and told that when everything in the Lu family was under his control, it would not be too late to retaliate at that time, so he had to be patient and pretend to be generous.

When Lu Zuo heard that the divorce was only exchanged for a verbal understanding from Li Su, he was a little anxious at the moment, all the financial pillars of their Lu family were blocked by Li Su, and even the last land income was not found to be cultivated by tenants because of the large number of recruits from the textile factory, so he had no choice but to use the rough seed method proposed by Li Su, and if it went on like this, their Lu family would not be able to support it for too long.

Thinking of this, Lu Zuo couldn't help but hurriedly say: "Your Highness, then now our Lu clan ......"

"Don't worry, I'm not done yet!" Li Su opened his mouth to interrupt the other party's words, "It is impossible to revoke the textile factory, the reason why it was set up in Youzhou in the first place is not only to attack your Lu family, but also to take a fancy to the convenient water and land transportation and dense population there, after all, it is the end point of the Grand Canal, and it can be directly connected to the south." ”

When Li Su said this, he looked at Lu Zuo and Lu You, who were anxious, and then said slowly: "As for your Lu family want to participate in the textile industry, I can agree to this and help in technology and resources, but if you want to occupy one-third of the market share, then you have to compete with others yourself, and how much can you fight." ”

After Lu Zuo saw that after Li Su finished speaking, he didn't speak again, obviously there was no more below, now he was in a hurry, stepped forward and said: "Your Highness, there are many people in our Lu clan, and the expenses in the clan are also very huge, if you only give us a license to participate in the textile industry, and there is no guarantee, it will almost force our Lu clan to a dead end!" ”

Li Su snorted coldly: "Mr. Lu, be content, your Lu family is on the opposite side of this king, and this king has no obligation to help you, this textile industry will be very profitable in the future, if it weren't for people close to me, I wouldn't allow them to interfere at all, your Lu family is already an exception, and I have an additional request!" ”

"Your Highness, don't forget, although there are also fights between our families, if you really force our Lu family to death, then the other great families will definitely not stand idly by!" As soon as Lu Zuo heard that Li Su had to put forward conditions even for them to enter the textile industry, he couldn't help but remind him on the spot.

"Hmph, what about the Great Family, now that I can crush you to death, then I will never let you turn over!" Li Su asked with great disdain, from the Lu family, he has seen the essence of these great families, in order to protect the interests of their own family, they don't care about anything at all, let alone the life and death of just a Lu family?

Lu Zuo saw that Li Su didn't care at all, and his heart was even more anxious, and after hesitating for a long time, he finally gritted his teeth and said: "Your Highness, my Lu clan has decided to give up the suppression of industry and commerce, although you don't care, but at least you can save a lot of trouble, do you think this can give me another chance for the Lu clan?" ”

Although Lu Zuo stood very straight when he spoke, his tone was almost pleading, and when the survival of the family was dying, he had to put down his dignity in exchange for a trace of sympathy from Li Su.

In fact, Li Su also knew that now that the Lu family had been forced into a desperate situation by himself, he had no intention of participating in the suppression of industry and commerce, so Lu Zuo's guarantee was nothing at all, but he didn't want to kill the Lu family now, so he deliberately hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Okay, for the sake of the old patriarch Lu being so sincere, then I will give you a chance, but the coal industry is absolutely not good, and you must also agree to that condition." ”…,

The carboniferous industry is not accessible to everyone, there is a semi-official organization of the carboniferous industry association, and now an industry barrier has been established, which is mainly because the carboniferous industry association has a tax reduction policy promised by Li Shimin himself, and the members of the association have much lower costs than non-members of the association when mining carbon, so even if others have discovered the carboniferous mine, there is no way to compete with the carboniferous industry association, and in the end it is either a dismal operation, or a loss of money to close the door.

"Your Highness Xie agreed!" Seeing that Li Yu finally relented, Lu Zuo and Lu You next to him glanced at each other, and their faces showed a hint of joy, "But please also ask Your Highness for guidance, what kind of opportunity did you give us, and what do you need us to promise?" ”

"The thing that makes you agree is very simple, I'll talk about this later, as for the opportunity to give you......" Li Su said this, looked up at Lu Zuo, but the corners of his mouth showed an inscrutable smile, "Actually, this is really a good opportunity, and it is also a new industry, and its profits are so large that they can almost be compared with the salt industry." ”

"Oh, what's that?" Lu Zuo's eyes lit up when he heard this, their Lu family's financial income had been cut off, and now he was the patriarch of the Fanyang Lu clan, and his mind was almost full of money, so when he heard that the new industry could be compared with the salt industry, it was naturally a great shock.

"Hehe, this industry is simply the sugar industry, but it is very troublesome to explain, this king is not in good spirits now, so you should send a few people who manage the business another day, and I will explain to them in detail at that time, in addition, you must prepare competent manpower, and follow me to the south after the New Year, the key to the new industry is there." Li Su said with a smile.

The sugar industry is indeed a very profitable industry, but now this industry has not yet started, and even the place where sugar cane is planted has not been completely completed, and it is impossible to form a scale in a short period of time.

Lu Zuo naturally knows what sugar is, but in his impression, sugar should be a seasoning for rich and noble people, and it is not used very much, what kind of money can be made from this? However, he also knew that Li Su was the best at turning stones into gold, and he did have that ability and reputation, so he didn't ask much, but just wrote down Li Su's instructions in his heart, and prepared to let people prepare as soon as he went back.

After saying the opportunity given to the Lu family, Li Su turned his head to look at the screen in the study again, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and finally opened his mouth to propose the additional conditions he had attached, but as soon as this condition came out, it immediately caused Lu Zuo and Lu You to be surprised, because they didn't expect that Li Su would make such a request?
