Jinhua, the fog in the early morning has not yet dried, the early birds have begun to chirp in the yard trees and sing happily, today it is a sunny day, Li Zekai sat in the yard with a cigarette in his mouth, and a hot tea in front of him, which is his standard every morning, Lu Wang's joke said that a cigarette is stuffed with a cigarette in the morning and the living fairy is run through by him without doubt to the end!

"Sir, what are you going to eat this morning?" The housekeeper stood not far away and bent down to greet him, Master Li's mouth has been very strong recently, and he usually eats some pickles and drinks some porridge in the morning, plus two buns or sugar cakes to pass away, but the master has no appetite for these now, but he didn't ask for two packs of instant noodles early! Instant noodles worth a pack of silver or two! Although it is expensive, what you eat is identity, and being rich is capricious, not to mention that as the CEO of the Lu family's shop in Jinhua, Master Lu is a good idea!

"A pack of braised ones, a pack of sauerkraut!" Li Zekai spit out a smoke ring and said lightly, the housekeeper hurriedly turned around to buy it, and there was another voice behind him, "To be unified, the old man doesn't like Master Kong!" ”

"Okay!" The butler turned away! Li Zekai took a sip of tea, "Eat unification every day, I hope I will regain the lost ground as soon as possible!" A good omen! ”

The eldest son Li Xiu behind him couldn't help but extend his thumb, "Daddy's wish will definitely come true!" I heard that Young Master Lu has gone north to suppress bandits, and there is already good news coming, I can't say that he will become a pillar of my Ming Dynasty one day, and it is not impossible to restore the country! ”

"Oh, yes, I haven't heard of it!" Li Zekai was stunned for a moment, obviously very interested in this news, but he was interested in everything about Lu Wang!

"Hey, I'm Zhang Long, Daddy, you know, now the road from Jinhua to Hangzhou Mansion has been repaired, and it can be reached in less than two hours by car, Zhang Long and they often go to Hangzhou Mansion to find the big housekeeper Du San to play, it is said that these news are transmitted by Hu Qianhu of the Wei Institute! It is said that Young Master Lu led 300 families from the canal all the way north to be invincible. Now in Shandong, he has fought against the thief army, and he has never been defeated......! "What Li Xiu said was foaming at the mouth, and Liu Zekai listened attentively." Brother Lu is really an unborn strange person, who can be literate and martial arts and make money, one word: service! ”

"That's", Li Xiu couldn't help but agree with his father, "By the way, Dad, many items in the shop are out of stock again, and the salt transport envoy is looking for trouble again!" Although the road from Jinhua to Hangzhou has been repaired, the road to Wenzhou has not yet been completed, but the stone powder is gone. The cement road has been temporarily suspended, you see, "Li Zekai is now in charge of Lu Wang's industry in Jinhua, but after all, he is an old man, and Lu Wang also agreed, so he transferred his two sons to Lu Group as his assistants in charge ......of different matters, the eldest son is responsible for business road repair business, and the younger son is responsible for working with the government to be in charge of agriculture!"

"Salt Messenger! Hehe", Li Zekai laughed dryly when he heard this, "What kind of moth are you going to make trouble, although we cut off their business, we also pay taxes." Tell them that our family can't do this thing, and if there is something to do, either wait for Lu Wang to come back and say, or let them go to Hangzhou Mansion to complain! "If you want to say that Li Zekai really has a headache about this, the Lu family's business is originally in the high-end market. There are no competitors in this commodity alone, but now there are two industries that attract people's envy, one is rice and the other is salt! In order to keep the price of rice at a low level, Lu Wang let everyone in Jinhua have food to eat. From later generations, a large number of grains and grains were sold at a low price, which self-evidently offended a large number of grain merchants!

But with Rwangar's business so big, it is not appropriate to have thousands of families to hate him. But now there is a public service that is looking for trouble, and that is the salt industry! Even after 400 years in modern society, salt still belongs to the state regulation, not to mention now, and in addition to the official salt accident, there are many private salt dealers to know that the technology of salt mining and drying salt is very backward in these years, and the output is also low, which is scared to death, but this thing is a necessity of life, and the price of official salt is too high, resulting in a very developed salt smuggling industry, because it is violent, so there are many kinds of underworld organizations! It's no wonder that they are fighting each other, and it is even more common to kill an official official to arrest them quickly in order to avoid the strict investigation of the government! Play just like smuggling white flour in the current society!

However, as soon as the Lu family's salt was listed, whether it was appearance, quality or price, the official salt business was blocked at all, and there was no sales at all, which made the salt transportation department in charge of the salt industry angry.

Originally, with Rwan's status in Jinhua, these people didn't dare to mess around, but after all, the salt envoy was an independent government department, and it was so profitable, and the financial route was suddenly cut off, and the people who relied on this food were not happy, and they had already cursed Rwann to the 180th layer of hell, and thought of a way to rectify Rwan.

"Hey, we can't be the master of this matter, let's see when Lu Wang comes back, or you can send a message to Hangzhou Mansion, and take the road over there so that they can stop everything first and wait for Lu Wang to come back to make the decision, these salt envoys don't buy the county lord's account, presumably the people of Hangzhou Mansion will be effective!"

"Yes, Daddy!" Li Xiu nodded in response!

"I heard that Hangzhou has already started to build a road to Suzhou? What is the drought situation in Suzhou? And the autumn seeds over there have been dialed down? While Li Zekai was talking, the housekeeper had already brought two bowls of hot instant noodles over, and Li Xiu, who was watching it, swallowed his saliva, I never get tired of eating this thing, I eat too much and it is disgusting, and I want to die if I don't eat it for a few days, but after all, this thing is a pack of silver or two, and I can't afford to eat it every day, and only his father, the CEO, can enjoy this benefit!

Swallowing his saliva, Li Xiu looked at the flower bed on the side, he decided to distract himself, "Well, the official road from Hangzhou to Suzhou is being repaired, but it is said that the stone powder is gone, it is just to level the road, the drought over there has been basically solved, the dynasty is in charge of the affairs of Suzhou, this guy has been complaining that Young Master Lu did not take him to the war, and as a result, he dug hundreds of wells within a hundred kilometers of Suzhou Mansion in one breath, pumping water and repairing canals day and night, of course, Suzhou Mansion also gave great help!" This is merit, it is achievement, and those adults who are officials can't ask for it! ”

"Hehe, Lu Wang is a man of great virtue, but it has solved the drought and locust plague in Suzhou and Hangzhou in more than a month, and even our Jinhua territory is now peaceful, you see that during this period of time, Zhang Long and Zhao Hu combined officers and soldiers kept clearing out bandits in the territory. Have you ever heard that there are thieves and thieves, where are people starving to death, and even the refugees who could not be counted at the city gate in the past are now difficult to find one, either go home to farm, or enter the Lu family to work as a worker or a family! Li Zekai said while eating noodles, the fragrance, the sourness, so that Li Xiu couldn't help it, "Steward Li will make me a bowl!" ”

"You pay for your own money, Lao Tzu has given you a share!" Li Zekai glanced at his eldest son and said. Li Xiuchang sighed, "Uh-huh, uh-huh!" ”

"By the way, Xiu'er, the little thing you and Zhang Xingfa did should be stopped, don't make the people of the Lu family disgusted, and then you won't be able to hang up your father's face!" Li Zekai suddenly changed the topic and said

"Uh......", Li Xiu's face was quite unnatural, "What is Daddy talking about?" ”

"Hmph. You don't come, do you think I don't know about the dirty things with Zhang Xingfa, from the Lu family to sell the goods outside Jinhua to make huge profits, the Lu family is looking at my face to buy it for you at the internal price. But you all took it to Zhang Xingfa to sell, and even those matches that were supposed to be distributed for free were also sold, and once or twice said in the past, now you actually pick up a batch of goods every two days. What do you want to do? Li Zekai said with a cold snort. The Lu family is turning a blind eye to this matter now, but once Lu Wang comes back, do you think they won't say it, where will Daddy's old face be put at that time. Why can't you be as down-to-earth as your brother! ”

"Daddy, I, I, but I don't do it, others are doing it, now the roads in Jinhua have been repaired, which of those rich families in the city is not reselling the goods of the Lu family to other counties, they can earn twenty or thirty taels of silver a day driving motorcycles back and forth! This is all huge profits, others can do it, why can't I do it, who will give money and can't get by! Do you know that now not only Lanxi next to Jinhua, but also Wuyi in the direction of Wenzhou and Yiwu in the direction of Hangzhou now have their markets, and there are too many people to earn this money."

Li Xiu felt as if he was very aggrieved, he didn't make money if he was rich, and the rich second generation in the city were not all losers, you must know that although the motorcycle was very handsome with a cigarette in his mouth, the Lu family's gasoline was not cheap, and cigarettes were even more luxury, plus the county town below Jinhua and the rich landlords were many, and the luxury market was very large. To put it bluntly, a group of fallen masters began to make money from the Lu family, buy oil and cigarettes.

"Of course I know, I don't know anything, I know everything about the Lu family's shop, others are others, but you can't, you can do it occasionally, but it can't be used as a norm, Lu Wang can trust me to hand over his family's voice to me to manage, what do others think of our Li family if you do this, what will Lu Wang think when he hears it, you don't have a face, you still have a face!" Li Zekai blew his beard angrily and glared at Li Xiu and scolded!

"Then, when Lu Wang comes back, I'll tell him to see if our family can do the branch business in the next county", Li Xiu was very afraid of his old man, and he didn't dare to speak loudly!

"This can be discussed, but it's not your turn to tell him, Lu Wang has an iron relationship with your father and me, who knows you?" Li Zekai looked at the son who bowed his head and admitted his mistake, and his anger disappeared a little, he reached out and took a sip of the teacup slowly, "The Lu family's shop in Hangzhou Mansion is said to be big, but I haven't heard that Du San is selling it from the inside, so it is really obvious that our Li family has dropped the price!" ”

Li Xiu was speechless, but fortunately, the housekeeper came over with his hot instant noodles, and hurriedly took it and sat down to start eating noodles, Li Zekai glanced at him, "During this time, the profit of the Jinhua branch is almost more than 200,000 taels of silver, and the Lu family is really good at making money, but I don't know how much money a shop as big as Hangzhou Mansion has to make, Lu Wang, this guy is really going to make money, two months is more than the old man has earned more than 20 years!" ”

How much money did the Lu family make in their shop in Hangzhou? Li Zekai naturally didn't know, Du San, as the chief housekeeper, should know, otherwise, he didn't know, now he was holding a cigarette, sitting in the Lu family's compound behind the shop, leisurely crossing Erlang's legs, and the three accounting rooms around him were now constantly crackling.

"Haven't you figured it out yet? Hey, you're really slow enough, I knew that I had transferred a few more accounting offices from Jinhua, the young master can say, go back and send me a calculator, no matter how big the number is, it will be done in a few minutes, you really can't catch up with the car! Lu Wang looked at the account room of several steamed bun men, and kept chattering.

As the chief steward of the Lu family, he has a high status. But he is not idle at all, he has to serve those distinguished customers in the store every day, and he has to deal with some officials who come to fetch oil and water! It's a headache when I think about it, but I envy the housekeeper Li Lin very much, people are now the guests of those big families in Hangzhou, and today it's either the housewife of this house who invites guests to watch the play or the young lady of that family invites to drink tea, as for the purpose, the big guys know it, and they have made friends with Li Lin and the Lu family, and many women's products need Li Lin to introduce in detail, but also to get the new goods as soon as possible. There are a lot of limited editions of the Lu family's things, and they will be out of stock if they are one step later, and this woman in the city knows it!

"Steward Du, after a rough calculation, the batch of goods sent by Young Master Lu last time has already been sold, with a total income of more than 700,000 taels of silver!" An account room said to the impatient Du San

"What? Only more than 700,000 taels? No, the young master unloaded the goods of five houses in the backyard warehouse, and in the words of the young master, it could be sold for at least one and a half million taels of silver. There's not much left of this special goods, and the money is only half sold, you, did you miscalculate!? Du San was shocked. I seriously suspect that the account office is doing something inside!

"Steward Du, don't get excited, don't you say it's a rough calculation, in the end, there are 800,000 taels of silver, but the more than 1 million taels of silver you said is absolutely none. But don't forget, a lot of our goods are exchanged for objects, those pots and spoons in the backyard warehouse. Pots and pots are really incalculable! The bookkeeper quickly explained

"Oh, it scared me, those tattered young masters are useful, and you don't need to calculate, just give me the account at hand to calculate it clearly, I want to be detailed, don't give me anything rough, rough", Du San said and got up and walked to the front yard, it was already early in the morning when the business was at its hottest!

What is the most popular business of the Lu family now? It's not those daily necessities, because those who are above the middle class can afford to buy, and the most popular are consumables, food!

Yes, there is also a rice shop next to the Lu family's shop, selling cheap cereals, and there are crowds of people queuing up every day, but just like the market in Jinhua, all of them are restricted! Every day, officers and soldiers are on duty to maintain order and deal with all kinds of cattle who do not queue up!

There is no doubt that these officers and soldiers are the people of Hu Sanlang of the Hangzhou Guard, and Hu Sanlang himself also comes to the Lu family's shop twice a day to drink and brag with Du San, of course, he is the only one in the city who is very popular, the ox fork is shining, and he envies and hates a large number of off-road vehicles wherever he goes!

You know, when Jin Yiwei asked for the car by name, Hu Saburo was under a lot of pressure, gritted his teeth and refused to give it, and even was ready to kill it, but in the end he didn't let go, and if he wanted to ask him why he was so hard, he couldn't say, but he just felt that Lu Wang would be fine with him, sure enough, more than half a month has passed since this happened, although he is worried every day, his life is still the same, and he has not been promoted or beheaded!

"San Lang, has there been any news of the young master recently?" As soon as Du San walked out of the shop, he saw Hu Sanlang standing at the door of the shop and watching the scenery and smoking! Now he and Hu Saburo are so familiar that they are closer than brothers, so close that they don't even call their brothers!

"Three, don't ask every time you meet, ask more than a dozen times a day, I will naturally tell you if there is news, I only know that Lu Wang is going to Dongping now, as for the latest news, I don't know, don't worry, he will be fine!" Hu Saburo said with a disgusted look and then pointed to the people sitting in the square across the road, "I wondered, this advertisement is played 12 hours a day, and it has been broadcast continuously for half a month, and there are still so many people watching, and they came to see it early in the morning, and even came to watch it with dinner in the evening, until they saw twelve o'clock, do you say they are not enough, is it really that good-looking?" ”

"Hehe, it's good-looking, I will go to see it for an hour every day when I rest, in the words of the young master, our nightlife is too scarce, and it is idle to be idle, and it's not bad to look at the beauty yy", Du San said with a lewd face!

"Look at your little bit of interest, go back and wait for your young master to come back, let him find a daughter-in-law cleanly, and see if you are still yy every day"! Hu Saburo scolded!

"Hehe, daughter-in-law, let's not worry, don't hide it, San Lang, do you know, there are many people who ask Sister Li Lin to come to me to say kiss, buddy, I'm very popular now!" Du Santu's face was 258,000 Hu Sanlang's eyes glared, "Just how shabby you look, if the girl's daughter doesn't look at you as the Lu family's housekeeper, who will take care of you!" ”

"Hey, that's what you're talking about, I also admit it, how to drop, envy, jealousy and hate", Du San looked cheap!

"I'm too lazy to pay attention to you", Hu Saburo took a long puff of cigarette, "I don't know what Lu Wang is doing now, how is the battle going?" It's time to come back, you're annoyed enough that the prefect asks about the seeds every day! ”

"Hey, it's not just a matter of seeds, ask me when the road will start, ask me when the street will be rectified, ask when the road will set up street lights, ask me when the car will be on the market, San Lang, buddy, I'm driven crazy by them every day, I'm just a housekeeper, not a housekeeper!" Du San looked bitter, "I really envy the dynasty, I don't have to worry about anything in Suzhou every day, just fight drought and disaster relief and train more freely!" I wonder where this thing is now? ”
