In the Yuan Mansion, Yuan Zixiong frowned, watching his eldest son Yuan Changhong holding a small money box and carefully counting something.

After a while, Yuan Changhong put the cash box on the table and said to Yuan Zixiong respectfully: "Father, the count has been completed, and it is a total of 200,000 taels." ”

"Two hundred thousand taels?!"

Yuan Zixiong frowned, and muttered: "The lord's means are all over the sky, and this first business was a great success, which is really surprising, but it is too much for him to send 200,000 taels at a time." ”

Yuan Changhong said with a smile: "Father, although 200,000 taels is not a small amount, but our family's income back then was far more than this money, you didn't blink at that time, why are you sighing now?" ”

Yuan Zixiong glanced at him and said coldly: "I have already calculated for my father, although Tianbao Pavilion has a lot of money this time, if you can deduct the huge expenses before, the profit will not exceed 600,000 taels."

Our family's shares in Galaxy Group are only one percent, and now we have received Liang Guogong's mansion, and we can only get another 20,000 taels at most according to the dividends of share capital, what is the name of the extra 180,000 taels? ”

Yuan Changhong said: "Maybe it is because Xu Gongzi is sympathetic to our family's hard work, so he sent some more money, it just so happens that our family wants to settle the family, and a few juniors have also reached the age of entering school, so we need to invite a few famous and talented Xixi, these 200,000 taels are just enough." ”

Yuan Zixiong nodded: "That's right, accept 20,000 taels and send the rest of the money back." ”

Yuan Changhong was stunned: "Father, so our family has to live a hard life again, if there is no Yuan family in the past few months, Xu Gongzi will not be able to display his skills even if he is knowledgeable and sympathetic to us, why do you refuse to be thousands of miles away?" ”

"Humph!"

Yuan Zixiong snorted coldly, stared at Yuan Changhong and said, "Wuzhen, your bowl of water is still very shallow." In the past few months, you have only seen the hard work of the Yuan family, but you have forgotten the master's means of turning stone into gold, can you turn sand into glass, is this the law of the world? ”

"This ......"

Yuan Changhong was speechless for a while, and then listened to Yuan Zixiong say: "Father tells you that without the Yuan family, the lord can still shock the world, but without the lord, the Yuan family is nothing."

Why did the lord send no more and no less 200,000 taels? That's because people have seen you through and know that you lack so much money!

What is really valuable is not the money, but the friendship stored in the money, and now you sell this friendship with 180,000 taels, and the Yuan family is the money and goods in the lord's house.

The Yuan family has been suffering for three years, and they don't care about these few more months, but the hope of the Yuan family's revival is pinned on the lord, and it is really about to come to a critical moment, without these friendships, what do you use to ask the lord to help? ”

Yuan Changhong's face turned pale, and he hugged his fists and said: "Father has taught me a lesson, and the child will return the extra money to Xu Gongzi." ”

"Stop!"

Yuan Zixiong said: "What Xu Gongzi? Remember, he is the lord of the Yuan family, since the truth of the Changxing Bridge case was revealed, our Yuan family will not worship the sky, do not worship the saints, and only worship him as the master.

There are many people outside, and my father is afraid that these words will cause trouble for the lord when they are passed out, but you are the eldest son of the Yuan family, and you can only call him the lord when there is no one around in the future, understand? ”

Yuan Changhong's pupils shrank, bowed down and said, "The child understands." ”

"And!"

Yuan Zixiong continued: "Let the third child of your family get ready, for your father has already agreed with the lord, and from tomorrow, he will follow the lord to learn those new knowledge." ”

"Father!"

Yuan Changhong was taken aback when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Father, the third Shangyi is the leader of the younger generation of the Yuan family, and he is talented in building a road, and the child also plans to let him inherit the Yuan family's Taoism, how can he ......?"

"Confused!"

Before he finished speaking, Yuan Zixiong said angrily: "The lord is a scholar of heaven and man, even the master is full of praise, that is the study of the Ghost Valley, if it is not for the talent of the third child of your family, how can the father be cheeky to open his mouth to him?"

You have always been honest and responsible, which is a good thing, but if you only stare at the one-third of an acre in front of you, it will become short-sighted, and you will never become a big climate! ”

Seeing that his father was angry, Yuan Changhong didn't dare to say any more, so he hurriedly answered and went out with the money box containing the silver ticket.

Yuan Zixiong looked at his back and sighed, and said to himself: "Wuzhen, this kid is good at everything, but he is too wooden, the old man is old, and he has to train a few capable talents quickly, otherwise once he can't keep up with the pace of the lord, the hope of the Yuan family's revival will be disappointed......"

At the same time, in Wang Shunde's signing room, Gonggong Cao also held a cash box and respectfully handed it to Wang Shunde.

"This is the dividend that Master Xu Rui Xu entrusted me to bring to you, he is too busy today to come."

Wang Shunde took the cash box, put it aside without looking at it, and said with a smile: "It's okay if you don't come, less contact is always less cause and effect, or Lord Xu is thoughtful." ”

Gonggong Cao's face changed, and he was about to speak, but Wang Shunde waved his hand.

"Cao An, to be honest with you, the battle of Jingyang is your fate, this fate is so big that it makes our family red, you must know that towering trees are made of small seeds that take root and sprout, but before it really grows, you have to water it well."

Father-in-law Cao was slightly stunned, and suddenly realized: "Father-in-law is right, but it's a pity that the slave and maid are a little weaker, and they are still a little too busy to take care of themselves. ”

Wang Shunde laughed with satisfaction: "It's serious, you are the admiral eunuch of our Imperial Horse Prison, who dares to let you take care of yourself?" By the way, I heard that your godson was bullied in the celebrant eunuch, and our family has already transferred him to our imperial horse supervisor on his own initiative, you won't blame our family, right? ”

"Really? Thank you, father-in-law! ”

Gonggong Cao knelt down in surprise.

Wang Shunde patted him and said with a smile: "Get up, our Imperial Horse Supervisor is not a soft persimmon that anyone can pinch a few times, work hard, and you will always come out." ”

A trace of ecstasy flashed in Gonggong Cao's eyes, and he understood that from this moment on, he had finally integrated into the large group of Imperial Horse Supervisors, and a new door opened to him.

Back at his house, Father-in-law Cao was still uneasy, he was sure that Xu Rui would be able to help him break the game, but he didn't expect it to be so fast and so thorough.

Wang Shunde is right, Xu Rui will grow into a towering tree sooner or later, he has already leaned on this big tree, but more and more people will also lean on it, he must hold on to it firmly so as not to fall behind.

But how do you hold on to it?

Father-in-law Cao was pacing back and forth in the study, and suddenly saw Cao Wanxi passing by the court, and he was immediately blessed.

He originally wanted to introduce his niece to Xu Rui for a long time, but he didn't expect Xu Rui to suddenly become famous, and the person who asked for his relatives stepped through the threshold, and Father-in-law Cao was afraid that it would not be beautiful if it was too tight, so he temporarily put out his mind.

Seeing Cao Wanxi now, the idea of matching the two suddenly came up irrepressibly, after all, if Xu Rui could be tied with nepotism, Father-in-law Cao would no longer be afraid that this big tree would leave him.

"Wanxi!"

Thinking of this, Father-in-law Cao hurriedly grabbed a food box on the table and rushed out to stop Cao Wanxi.

"Uncle looking for me?"

Cao Wanxi stopped in surprise.

Father-in-law Cao handed her the food box with a smile and said, "The osmanthus crisp you made is really good, let's send some to Xu Rui for my uncle later." ”

Cao Wanxi's cheeks flushed, and she said, "But my niece doesn't know him, isn't it abrupt to come to the door rashly?" ”

Father-in-law Cao waved his hand and said: "It's not abrupt, it's not abrupt, it's not abrupt, it's all young, what's the matter?" ”

Cao Wanxi's cheeks turned even redder, and she said softly: "My niece has already agreed to travel with Lord Hengcheng in the afternoon, or later?" ”

Father-in-law Cao was stunned for a moment, and his smile was even bigger: "It's good later, you can still talk more when the weather cools down later, right?" ”

"Uncle!"

Cao Wanxi snorted and fled shyly.

Father-in-law Cao looked at his niece's back and laughed.

The same cash box also appeared on the tables of Yuwang, Suwang, Liu Yi and Huang Zhengyuan, and each shareholder received the first dividend according to the proportion of share capital, and some even earned back the cost in one sum.

In order to settle the family business for the Yuan family, Xu Rui not only left enough working capital, but even took out the 150,000 taels that should have belonged to him, making his purse empty.

"I'm such a fortune boy......"

Looking at the empty purse, Xu Rui sighed with a wry smile.

But after thinking about it, he came alive again, only by establishing a solid chain of interests can everyone be firmly tied to his chariot, and the so-called integration of resources is nothing more than that.

This first step is not bad, not only made a factory for nothing, but also gained a lot of favors, and when everyone tastes the sweetness, it will be difficult to leave themselves.

Now I am still too weak, but when the time is ripe, these people will be able to exert unexpected energy, which is Xu Rui's reliance in this world.

Xu Rui is still young, there is time, he is not in a hurry.

After receiving the first dividend, several shareholders were naturally very excited, especially Yuwang, Suwang and Huang Zhengyuan.

They were under tremendous pressure and forcibly scraped together this huge amount of money, thinking that it would be best to wait until next year, after the Ministry of War accepted the batch of crossbows, they didn't expect Xu Rui's dividends to be so fast and so much.

In the end, it is the temper of a young man, after receiving a huge amount of money, Huang Zhengyuan immediately proposed to be the east, and invited King Yu, King Su and Xu Rui to Wentian Pavilion for a small gathering, saying that it was to celebrate Xu Rui's achievements, but in fact, he was looking for an excuse to save a game, make a fuss, and deepen his feelings by the way.

Under the great joy, the three invited were happy to go to the appointment, and the four young people sat down in the private room on the third floor of the Wentian Pavilion, ordered a table full of wine and food, and ate wildly, chatting about the south and the north of the world, and the atmosphere was so lively.

Just as the wine was hot, there was a sudden thunderous noise outside the door of the private room, as if he was watching a juggler, and as if he had seen something extraordinary, and let out a burst of exclamation.

"Hey, what's wrong?"

Xu Rui put down his chopsticks and looked outside the private room, and King Yu and King Su were also suspicious.

"You don't know?"

Huang Zhengyuan asked in surprise.

"What should we know?"

The three of you look at me, I look at you, and shook his head inexplicably.

"Of course it's a good thing, otherwise how could I deliberately choose this place to meet with the three of you?"

Huang Zhengyuan laughed, and his eyes suddenly became ambiguous when he looked at the three of them.
