Banniang smiled, although she had never thought of it like this, what Lu Qiqi said was also true. After mentioning himself, Banniang formally asked, "Brother Seventeen, what do you think about the Heavenly Family's personal call?" ”

Lu Qiqi said frankly: "If this is the Northern Song Dynasty in our history, I will definitely not hold any official position, I don't know how much you know about history, Eighth Sister, but I know very well." In this era, there were a group of brilliant figures who looked at the entire history of China, but it was these people who pushed the Great Song Dynasty into a place of no return. And their personal honor and disgrace, even if they are put in the future generations, there is no way to judge and define. Because no one can deny that their starting point is precisely for this country. I'm not narcissistic enough to think I'm better than them in terms of mind and strategy, so I can't afford to play it. But the current Great Song Dynasty is different. Although it also has problems of one kind or another, I believe that at least judging from the current situation in several countries, there will not be a disaster of destroying the country like the shame of Jingkang, and although the Heavenly Family also has the idea of reforming the government, the social contradictions are not acute, and as long as the ministers do not have the brains to call the donkey fall, the country will only become stronger and stronger in a certain period of time. I have always felt that what really promotes social development is not politics and political power, but technology and civilization, and the technology and civilization of this era are also developing at a speed that even I find surprising。。。。。。 ”

Speaking of this, Lu Qiqi's words changed: "Being able to use my own strengths to benefit the people, this is the only thing I want to do in my extra life, now that I can have this opportunity, what I am worried about will probably not happen, at least not in the short term, so the eighth sister asked me what I think," Speaking of this, Lu Qiqi smiled, "I also think that for me, this is an opportunity." If I am really fortunate enough to get the official position of the Department of Agriculture, I will be able to promote agricultural planting technology on a large scale in the shortest possible time, so that the people can live a better life, such a good thing, I will naturally not refuse. ”

"But, Brother Seventeen, even if you really join the Division of Agriculture, you will definitely be able to guarantee that your ideals can be realized?"

Lu Qiqi smiled: "There is nothing in this world that is unimpeded. It is up to us to find the most favorable conditions in the middle. In addition, the promotion of agricultural technology will hardly harm the interests of any group, on the contrary, it will be beneficial to everyone, and if it is just because of the matter itself, I believe that no one will object to it. Of course, there is some truth to your worries, you can rest assured, I will take care of it myself. I'm just a farmer. That's all you have to remember. ”

Since he is an official, and once his agricultural technology really increases the production of the entire Great Song Kingdom, how can no one be tempted by such a splashing credit? At that time, I am afraid that if Lu Qiqi wants to be alone, he will involuntarily fall into the dispute of power. He is confident that he will be able to avoid getting involved with any of the forces in the DPRK and China. If this is the case, others will not be able to fight for it, and it will surely be destroyed. But when I think about it again, it's actually useless to think so much.

Didn't the brothers in her family all hold back their strength to take the imperial examination and become officials? It's her father, who has already given a career, how old is he, he doesn't say anything, but he also has a passion for serving the country that has been brewing in his heart for decades, and he is worried about nowhere to go.

As long as she and Lu Qiqi's family affairs are still there, Lu Qiqi and her brothers are in the same boat.

And she and Lu Seventeen, who can guarantee that her brothers will be able to be alone in the future?

"Brother Seventeen, do you know, who recommended you to Si Nongsi? And how did the Heavenly Family know? ”

Seeing Banniang ask like this, Lu Qiqi raised his eyebrows and glanced at her, with a look of surprise and appreciation in his eyes, but he didn't answer, just smiled, and asked Banniang instead: "Didn't you just say that you have something to discuss with me?" ”

Only then did Banniang tell Lu Seventeen about the establishment of the city division in Quanzhou, as well as the infinite business opportunities hidden in it, as well as her own analysis of the pros and cons.

Lu Qiqi said: "This is indeed a rare opportunity, and as you said, sooner rather than later, didn't you return 10,000 yuan to me last time?" I still have more than 2,000 pieces of autumn harvest here. I reckon you should have four or five thousand dollars of available funds right now. Since you told me about this, you won't pull it down if you want to come to Wu Sanniang's side, so you can make up 30,000 yuan. Although 30,000 is not much, but you have unique conditions, and you are playing an opportunity that no one else knows, then these 30,000 can be used for 300,000 yuan, which is enough. I'll give you 12,000 guan, and 6,000 guan is my money for shares, half of which is mine, and half of Siniang's. The other six thousand are borrowed from you. How is it? ”

"That's great. I have recovered a lot of money in the woodware shop here, and there are customers who have paid some deposits, plus the profits in a Mid-Autumn Festival restaurant, if you make up again, 10,000 is no problem, plus your 6,000, I will have 16,000. And then counting the martial arts, I estimate that I can barely get together nearly 40,000. When I arrange everything in the next few days, I will go to Quanzhou again, and your money will be delivered earlier. ”

Lu Qiqi smiled: "I have cash here, and I can give it to you at any time." ”

Banniang mentioned the matter of the new restaurant to him.

Lu Qiqi said with a smile: "Don't ask me about the matter of the restaurant in the future, just look at it yourself, in fact, I just invested thousands of dollars in front, and the cost has already been recovered." Whatever you want. After all, you have the catering management concepts and recipes that are beyond this era, and I can still worry about you losing money? You're not a stupid girl. ”

Banniang went up with a punch: "You are the stupid girl." ”

The two chatted for a while, and Lu Siniang came over to ask when the meal would be served. Because Banniang said something, she was in a hurry to go back, so she asked Lu Siniang to put it on the table. After eating, I went home.

The next day, I went to ask someone to invite Wu Sanniang to talk in the shop. I also explained the matter to Wu Sanniang one by one.

With Wu Sanniang's shrewdness, how could she refuse such a heaven-sent opportunity to fall from the sky? At that time, she made a decision to invest 15,000 yuan, but she didn't have any cash in hand now, and she still needed three or five days to raise money. Banniang happened to have the design drawings of the new restaurant to do, and she had to wait for two or three days, so she asked Wu Sanniang to send the money within three days.

Wu Sanniang responded, and she didn't delay, and she didn't mention raising money by herself.

Banniang went home and got busy.

After three days, Lu Qiqi and Wu Sanniang's money were also delivered, Banniang rushed to work day and night, and the drawings of the new restaurant were also handed over to Lu Changan as scheduled, and the things to be explained were explained, so I went to visit the customers who had made an appointment in the woodware shop, talked about things, and then prepared to go to Quanzhou.

Because he was afraid that Lin Zhaoqing would go north with the fleet, he had sent a letter to Lin Zhaoqing a few days ago, asking him to wait for her in Quanzhou no matter what. Therefore, there is no need to worry about Lin Zhaoqing's absence.

This time there was nothing else, so he only brought Xu Thirteen and Cang'er. Coincidentally, Xiuniang went to measure her size that day, and said that she wanted to help her make two autumn shirts with her own hands, Banniang also smiled and said that Xu Thirteen had not come back for a few days, and this was going to be borrowed, and she hoped that Xiuniang's sister-in-law would not blame her, and when she came back, she would ask Xu Thirteen to buy her two good jewelry.

Xiuniang smiled generously: "What do you say about borrowing or not borrowing, but he takes the monthly money every month, and he gives a lot, what should he do?" The man stays at home all day, but he has no ability, and I can't wait for him to see Tian'er running away, and save me the trouble of taking care of him. ”

Banniang laughed: "Sister-in-law Xiu said this, the thirteenth brother may be sad when he hears it." ”

Although Xiuniang is a person hired by her family, she can fight two small families is a neighborhood, and she is five or six years older than Banniang, even if she watched her grow up in a small age, she is not like other hired mothers-in-law, but she joked when she heard this: "Oh, our eighth miss knows a lot." The other thing is that Banniang is embarrassed.

The three of them traveled, and only rode horses on the land road, which was much faster than taking a carriage, so they traveled day and night, alternating between land and water, and arrived in Quanzhou in only five days. Although she is tired, she can't think of what she is about to do, but Banniang doesn't feel tired for half a minute.

When he arrived in Quanzhou, he quietly entered Lin's house, ate a little food, and discussed matters with Lin Zhaoqing behind closed doors.

Banniang sold Lin Zhaoqing a piece of news, but put forward two conditions, first, if Lin Zhaoqing's Qingrui firm wants to participate in the business of wood raw materials, as long as the Sheraton wood store still exists for one day, Qingrui firm can only cooperate with Banniang's Sheraton wood store. Second, come forward for Baniang and buy the land at the wharf.

As for the shops on the north and south streets in the city, Banniang also wants to win a few, but this is something she can do by herself. Buy a few shops in the city, no matter who sees it, you won't think much about it.

In the timber business, Lin Zhaoqing originally planned to continue to cooperate with Banniang, although he added a permanent deadline, Lin Zhaoqing didn't care, he even found an excuse to persuade the shareholders. Without it, Banniang is the son of the official eunuch family, the former is the righteous son of Lord Cai, and then she has her famous brothers as the backing, I believe that in the near future, the brother of the dragon and phoenix among her people, even if he does not dare to say that he can be an official and pay homage to the prime minister, he will definitely become the business dependence of Zeng Bagongzi. With the backstage, the caravan can go further. Not to mention anything else, if Zeng Bagongzi is not such an identity, how can he get such inside information? Lin Zhaoqing was born in poverty, and although he was able to create this business today, he relied on his own ability, but he also knew that if there was no backstage, the things he had now would not be relied upon.

In this world, it is always better to send carbon in the snow than to put icing on the cake.

He wanted to be the one who sent carbon in the snow. And with his understanding of Zeng Banniang, he believes that she is worth his investment.

Besides, although the news that Quanzhou is going to set up a city department cannot be disclosed yet, Lin Zhaoqing also has the confidence and enough reasons to persuade the firm to follow Banniang Land.

If Lin Zhaoqing originally cooperated with Banniang and simply took a fancy to Banniang, now it is somewhat because of the family she relied on behind her.

Even if no one can say what will happen in the future, but there is no investment in this world that is risk-free, just looking at the Zeng family being able to raise such a daughter, Lin Zhaoqing believes that the sons and daughters of the Zeng family should be better. What's more, Mr. Zigu's fame is not in vain.

Both sides have willingness, so naturally the conversation will go smoothly, and Lin Zhaoqing agreed to Banniang's conditions without saying a word. He is also a practical person, the next day he led Banniang to quietly look at the land around the wharf, picked the one to buy, and asked Banniang to rest at ease in his home, he went to inquire about the land price, and found the yamen to negotiate and go through the procedures for buying the wharf idle land.

Although this time's largesse was even shocked, Lin Zhaoqing's reason was also ready-made, so it only took three days to get the title deed.

Due to the great loss of the strength of the Quanzhou caravan, it is a good time for Qingrui to develop, and it is understandable to buy land and build warehouses in large quantities, not to mention that he said that he would build warehouses and lease them to other trading houses in the future. So although everyone thinks that it is not reasonable to invest in the use of funds in this way, no one doubts anything else.

However, Yongxing Industry Bank got the news that Lin Zhaoqing purchased a large number of idle fields at the wharf, and Li Yongxing personally invited Lin Zhaoqing to speak, but Lin Zhaoqing is not a simple person, and the news about the city department is that Li Yongxing already knows, and he will not admit it.

Besides, he has already negotiated the price, paid the money, and made a contract, and he is not afraid that Li Yongxing will destroy it.

The two of them spoke without leaking. Li Yongxing didn't get anything useful out of Lin Zhaoqing's mouth, and Lin Zhaoqing didn't know whether Li Yongxing knew about Quanzhou's establishment of a city department.

After Lin Zhaoqing said goodbye, Li Yongxing called the chief steward over: "Go and check, Lin Zhaoqing, this kid has not been in contact with any special person recently." ”

"Yes, sir, the villain will do it." Chief Steward Li replied respectfully, "What about the dock land, we?" ”
