Lu Bing and Shen Yew argued from morning to night, bargaining with each other at night, this is a big deal, even half of the profit is a shocking figure, this discussion is very worthwhile, up and down is the annual income of the Ming Dynasty. The Shen family relied on foreign silver to be invincible for a long time, and no matter how much the imperial court curbed and targeted the Shen family, it would not decline, which was the reason for relying on overseas silver mines.

In the face of the huge amount of money, Lu Bing couldn't help but be a little red-eyed, in business, business friends are friends, business is business, Lu Bing argued to explain his importance, as well as the inevitability of Dengzhou Mansion and Long Island, and demanded 30% of the total benefits. Shen Yew naturally didn't allow it, talking about human favors and reasons, what kind of escort during the sea journey, what shipbuilding maintenance personnel were hired, etc.

At the end of the day, Shen Yew even came up with the concept of a creative starter, which made Lu Bingda laugh at Shen Yew's forced progress and had learned the concept of patenting. Shen Yew can't be powerful, Lu Bing is the most reasonable on weekdays, but sometimes he is extremely unreasonable, and he has a bandit style, so he doesn't argue, he just asks for a share, otherwise he will be told to the world in two pieces. As a result, after some negotiations, a cooperative relationship was finally reached with a profit of 20%. Lu Bing instantly saw the mountains of gold and silver in front of his eyes, and couldn't help but be ecstatic.

Lu Bing and Shen Yeshan didn't start work the next day, they slept for a day, and they didn't get up until dawn. Yang Feiyan asked, "Lu Lang, how did you do in Beijing this time?" ”

Lu Bing swallowed the rice in his mouth and said, "You just remembered to ask, it seems that you have a serious lack of confidence in me." I'm on the list this time. Now he is a Jinshi. ”

Lu Xun was just about to speak, but was knocked by Meng Xueqing and whispered: "Eat and sleep." I'll talk to my dad when I'm done eating. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, our family doesn't have so many rules, just have rules when you go out and have outsiders, how tired you are when you go home." Lu Bing was in a good mood, and said with a smile, Meng Xueqing was also very happy, this is Lu Bing's rare tolerance for Lu Xun. Lu Xun asked, "Daddy, what's the name of Jinshi?" ”

"This Jinshi is" Lu Bing talked eloquently, but was interrupted by Shen Yeshan halfway through his words: "Wait, it's not quite right." This temple test hasn't started yet, why did you come back? Lu Bing, are you embarrassed to guard the child, pretending to be on the list. Blowing here? ”

"That's it. Third brother, don't be embarrassed. Zi said, knowing is knowing what you don't know, not knowing is not knowing, and knowing is also knowing. The same is true of being a man, if there is something, if there is not, if there is not, don't talk nonsense. Xia Dade said seriously, and everyone laughed.

"I rub. Don't believe me, look down on people. Breeze. You say, believe it or not, I got in. Lu Bing looked at Duan Qingfeng, today Lu Bing returned, Duan Qingfeng sat at a table with everyone to eat exceptionally, in the past, he was alone in his own courtyard, at best, he ate with Lu Bing or Lu Luo, he didn't like to be lively, so Lu Bing didn't force him.

Duan Qingfeng put down the dishes and chopsticks, raised his head, his hair slid and his beautiful eyes lifted, which was particularly moving, and said at this time: "I believe you, you have a hand in leading troops to fight, and if you read some books, your strategy should be good." Kung fu is even better, riding relying on physical flexibility and solid qigong should be good, as for archery, people who practice martial arts practice to a level, will study all kinds of forces, so no matter what blade is used, it is the same. Archery is nothing more than an accuracy and arc and wind resistance, which I think you will be able to use as soon as you are familiar with them. Therefore, it is reasonable that you are on the list, and you will definitely be able to do martial arts. ”

Duan Qingfeng said coldly, everyone was silent for a moment and began to laugh wildly, Xia Dade burst into tears of laughter, and said: "Duan Qingfeng Duan Qingfeng, I usually think that you kid can't joke when I see you seriously, but I didn't expect you to lose more than me." My third brother is going to take the imperial examination, you said that he will definitely be able to win the martial arts, ha ”

Lu Bing coughed lightly and said, "Don't make trouble, I saw Zhu Houxi this time." As soon as this word came out, the table instantly fell silent, Lu Bing said the matter of entering Beijing to take the exam, and explained Zhu Houxi's concerns and thoughts before saying: "Zhu Houyu said to let me come back to make arrangements, and then bring my family to Beijing as an official, I think this time Zhu Houyi is going to entrust me with reuse, maybe the official position in the early stage will not be too high." After all, I am now a Jinshi, and since I want to live as an official by my own ability and not by my holy dependents, then the initial official position should not be too high, otherwise it is not common sense. But I think Zhu Houxi will give me the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and then promote me again and again, so I expect that within five years I will be able to resume my previous position as a servant, and it is a servant with real power in my hands. ”

"How can you be sure that you must be made a military attaché and not a civilian official?" Yang Feiyan asked after hearing the position of the servant.

Lu Bing pointed at himself and said with a smile: "Just like me, you said that I sat with that group of literati, no matter how you look at it, it is not harmonious, besides, the reason why I was able to take the high school entrance examination in Beijing this time, I think my own efforts are one thing, but to be fair, I think Zhu Houxi's role as the emperor in this should not be small." ”

"So what about our business?" Meng Xueqing asked suddenly, Lu Bing sighed and said, "This is exactly what I'm worried about, but I won't give up, there must be a few people in charge among us." Now that our career in Dengzhou has stabilized, coupled with the cooperation with Miss Shen, even if I arrive in the capital, I only need to write a letter to command to win a thousand miles. It is good that we can continue to develop and take revenge, but if we can't develop, it is also very considerable to take 10,000 steps back and keep this family business, at least the heirs will not worry. So what I mean is that we will send a few people to stay, and the rest are on the right track, and there is no need to worry too much, but there is a family member sitting here, and the people below will not mess around, and the abuse of power will fill their pockets, and the tiger skin will be curbed. ”

"Or I'll stay." Xiao Rui, who was silent, suddenly spoke, and when she heard the news of returning to Beijing, she couldn't help but be a little panicked in her eyes, Lu Bing and Meng Xueqing glanced at each other, and Shen Zishan also saw this scene, but she was an outsider after all, and it was not good to be too much. So I can only leave a big question mark in my heart, but I can't say it.

Lu Bing nodded and said, "It's okay, it's just that Xiaorui, you have been fasting and chanting Buddha for a long time." If you don't know much about business, you must pay attention to the movements here, and tell me whenever you have something, and don't let the people below blind you. In addition, second brother, I have something to trouble you, and you have to stay in Shandong for a while. First, Cai Longyu's Xiangma has an unstable temperament, and we are not afraid that they will become bigger, but that they will not listen to the call after they become bigger. At that time, our early efforts will be in vain. So I have to help me take care of this aspect, and in addition, I can also help Xiaorui take care of it, so I won't worry about her being bullied by a woman's family. ”

"It's all right. To be honest, I really don't want to go back. It's not interesting to go back, there is intrigue in the capital, although the business of opening a butcher shop to sell pork is also prosperous, but seeing those princes and nobles on the road who are rampant and domineering turtles and grandchildren, I really panicked in my heart. Maybe I'll have to get some trouble with someone else when I go back with you. Staying in Dengzhou Mansion Tiangao Emperor Yuan, I dare to take care of unjust things, and I am not afraid of offending someone and causing you trouble or something. Selling meat is my dream. But it's not bad to be a bandit, and I'll submit it. Xia Dade smiled. When everyone heard such simple and honest words, coupled with Xia Dade's indifferent expression, they couldn't help but laugh again.

"I'll stay too." Meng Xueqing said: "You can keep the family business with Sister Xiaorui, not to mention, I have been supervising the business of Long Island before, if it is a temporary replacement, I am afraid that it will have to be handed over, and it will not be good to delay Sister Shen's business at that time." ”

"It's okay, Xue Qing can stay too." Although Lu Bing was reluctant in his heart, after all, he had to focus on the overall situation, not to mention that Changdao's classified matter was handed over to Xiaorui, and he was indeed a little uneasy, not to mention that if anything else was messed up, or he was coerced by Zhu Houxi to leak the secret again, it would be endless troubles. Moreover, this family has always been jointly run by Lu Bing and Meng Xueqing, the eldest lady, and the two complement each other to be in charge of the Lu family's business, so Meng Xueqing is also familiar with the way, and she also has a lot of prestige in the subordinate and the market, which is incomparable to everyone here.

"As for Xun'er and Luo'er, let's stay. Breeze, you also stay. Lu Bing said, Duan Qingfeng hesitated slightly, feeling inconvenient, after all, if Lu Bing was there, it would still be useful for him to stay in the Lu Mansion, Lu Bing left, what is the matter with keeping his brother-in-law and sister-in-law who are not relatives in the same mansion, living under the eaves of others without relatives or reasons, as a dignified seven-foot man, it is really a little unhappy.

So Duan Qingfeng said: "I'm afraid it's not very convenient, I'll still go to Beijing with you, in case my body is sick, or if I practice and fall into the devil again, I can stop you in time, and I can protect you on weekdays, right?" ”

"Yes, yes." Xia Dade said: "There is a breeze to protect you, and a few of us can rest assured, when it comes to martial arts, no one will argue with the two of you, let Brother Duan enter Beijing with you, how much can you take care of." ”

Lu Bing shook his hand and said, "Do you remember what happened to Wan Laozi?" Isn't it more worth beware of the people who can hurt him, and also kill the five masters and the nine masters together? Don't interject first, listen to me, it is true that they happened in the capital, and it is said that the capital is the Longtan Tiger's Den, but I am confident that my sword skills can break through even if it is the Longtan Tiger's Den, but the master is not a wooden pile, what if they send someone to hold my family hostage and threaten me? I can protect myself and my parents, but if I am asked to come back to the rescue, it will be too much of a whip. ”

"So Qingfeng, you have a long way to go, protect Xueqing Xiaorui and the children, so that I can do things in the capital with peace of mind and not be controlled by others." Lu Bing said, Duan Qingfeng was silent for a moment and nodded. Lu Bing patted Duan Qingfeng on the shoulder, then touched a glass with him, and drank it all, and the brotherly love was all in plain sight.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little embarrassing, Xia Dade hurriedly laughed and said, "I also need Brother Duan's protection, I'm so afraid." ”

Duan Qingfeng's cold but handsome face suddenly smiled and replied, "It's okay, the second brother only needs to roar to stun the thief." The crowd laughed in unison again.

Yang Feiyan hugged her daughter Lu Yin and said: "Oh, so I am the only one who enters Beijing with Lu Lang, I don't want to do this, I am so bored alone." Otherwise, I have to stay in Dengzhou, and let Lu Lang enter Beijing as an official by himself, wouldn't it be okay. ”

"That's not going to work." Shen Yeshan smiled evilly and said, "You have a long way to go, you shoulder the expectations of your two sisters." ”

"What do you say?" Yang Feiyan was puzzled.

Shen Yeshan replied: "Your duty is to go to the capital to take care of Lu Bing, don't let him get into trouble again, otherwise when you come back, maybe you will bring more than a dozen concubines. Sister Feiyan, do you think you should keep an eye on Lu Bing, and do you have a long way to go? ”

"In this way, it's true, Lu Lang, I will go to Beijing with you, if you take another concubine, don't blame me for not being merciful." Yang Feiyan said with a smile, it was laughter and excitement again, just one meal decided who went and who stayed, but such a decision affected the development of things a year later.
