Chapter Seventy-Seven: Intelligence

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Lu Yunzhou in surprise.

Qi Min said in a deep voice: "How is it possible, what the king and Tian Xiang are most afraid of is the background of our Qi family, and other families will not want the benefits to be shared by the Qi family, don't be joking!" ”

Qi Fang said with great interest: "Second brother, don't be in a hurry to deny it first, I think Yu'er will not be untargeted, after all, his tuntian system has solved the biggest problem in the history of the soldiers, let's listen to what he can do!" ”

Qi Jing's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "This is reasonable, Yu'er, tell me, what is the solution?" ”

Qi Ting and Qi Fei also looked at Lu Yunzhou expectantly.

Lu Yunzhou smiled and asked, "Uncle, I want to know the general situation of the industries controlled by the various families of the Qi Kingdom first!" ”

Qi Jing smiled: "This is easy. Qi is a big country in the East, through the industry and commerce, it is profitable to fish and salt, and our Qi family controls the salt industry of Qi country, it can be said that it is the richest man in Qi country, and the family with the wealth of our Qi family is only the Hou family, the Xie family and the Zhongsun family, of which the Hou family controls the iron smelting industry of the Qi country, the Xie family owns almost all the pastures of the Qi country, and the Zhongsun family controls most of the restaurants, gambling houses and green buildings in the Qi country. But--these are not on the surface, because whether it is the ordinary people of Qi or foreigners, they only know that the richest man in Qi is the Zhongsun Long, who specializes in usury! ”

Lu Yunzhou nodded clearly, the four hidden families of Qi are better said to be the four chaebols of Qi State, controlling the economic lifeline of the entire Qi Country behind their backs! Among them, the Qi family contributed the most when Tian Xiang was restored, so he received the most profitable salt industry! But this is also related to the background of the Donglai people of the Qi family, because the iron smelting industry of the later family and the animal husbandry of the Xie family are directly linked to the war, and it is absolutely impossible for the King of Qi and Tian Xiang to let the Qi family get involved in these two places, and the salt sales are relatively less sensitive; And the base camp of the Donglai people is in Jimodu, Jimodu is the Jiaodong Peninsula, the Jiaodong Peninsula is surrounded by the sea on three sides, even if the salt industry of the Qi country is not handed over to the Qi family, the Donglai people who have the protection of the Qi family can easily control it in their hands, but for the king of Qi and Tiandan, compared with other Donglai people, it is obviously more reliable to take the initiative to help Tiandan recover the Qi family of the Qi country, so it is not surprising that the salt industry of the Qi country is handed over to the Qi family!

Lu Yunzhou asked again: "Then what about Tian Xiang's family?" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone laughed, and said in unison: "Yu'er, have you forgotten?" Tian Xiang's surname is Tian, he is a distant relative of the royal family, isn't his family the king's family? ”

Lu Yunzhou raised his eyebrows in surprise, Tian Dan is a distant relative of the royal family? So in terms of bloodline, Tian Dan is actually qualified to sit on the throne of King Qi?

This is interesting, the King of Qi was originally a puppet, there is such a bloodline by his side, and he controls all the power of the Qi country, and has a very high prestige of the clan, he has been on the throne for the past 20 years, I am afraid that he is sitting on pins and needles, right?

Qi Min saw that Lu Yunzhou had been pulling around, frowned, and reminded loudly: "You can tell now, what the hell is the solution, right?" ”

Lu Yunzhou came back to his senses and said with a smile: "This method is to pull the king, Tian Xiang and other families to join the shares!" ”

"Stake?"

Everyone was confused and looked at Lu Yunzhou inexplicably.

Lu Yunzhou said with a smile: "Isn't it all about investing costs in business before you can reap profits?" Shareholding is to attract other investors, invest costs together, according to the amount of funds invested, to distribute the size of the shares held by each investor, and finally the profits obtained from the operation, but also according to the number of shares, to each shareholder dividends! ”

The first appearance of the joint-stock system in this era made everyone fall into thought......

Qi Jing is a businessman after all, he reacted first, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he sighed: "There can be such an unheard of and ingenious method, if this is the case, I am indeed sure to persuade the Zhongsun family and other families to join together!" Yu'er, you have such a talent, it's a shame not to be a businessman! How is it, are you interested in helping the uncle? ”

Qi Fang glared and said: "Big brother, don't rob me of people, Yu'er is not developing in the military, that's really a pity!" Yu'er, just by virtue of your young age, you can propose the tuntian system, you are definitely a military wizard that is rare to see in a century! It is just around the corner that you will become a military god like Sun Wu, Sun Bin and Wu Qi in the future, why don't you come to southern Xinjiang to join the Fire Bull Army, the third uncle will teach you all what he has learned all his life, and he will never hide his selfishness! ”

But seeing Qi Min suddenly grow up, holding the table with one hand, a face that usually has almost no expression, was flushed red with excitement at this moment, Qi Min's eyes flashed with determination, looked directly at Qi Jing and Qi Fang, and said in a deep voice: "No, you are all wrong, my son is naturally the most like me, just with this method proposed by Yu'er, he must enter politics!" Big brother, this matter is no longer just about doing business, if we can really bring the king, Tian Xiang and the major families in, then a close relationship of interests will be formed between our Qi family and them! What does this mean? This means that our Qi family will no longer be marginalized by the Qi people, and will have many more reliable allies from now on! This even has the hope of eliminating the jealousy of King Hetian against our Qi Jialai identity! As long as their interests and the interests of our Qi family are firmly tied together, one is prosperous and the other is lost, then our Qi family can be regarded as completely gaining a firm foothold in the Qi country! Big brother, third brother, isn't this what we've been working hard for but never get? Qi Min said at the end, his voice was already hoarse, and there was a slight tremor in it!

When Qi Jing and Qi Fang heard this, they were both stunned, and their eyes suddenly turned red, just like Qi Min at this moment!

And although Qi Ting and Qi Fei were touched, they didn't have as much reaction as the three elders.

It's just that among the juniors of the Qi family, except for Qi Shuang, the other three are all of mixed blood of Qi and Lai, so they have not been treated differently by Qi people since they were young.

And because the Lai people made great efforts in the process of Tiandan's restoration, after the restoration of the country, the status of the Lai people has also been significantly improved, and they no longer want to be bullied like before, so the environment in which the younger generation of Lai people actually grew up is not very bad!

But the Lai people of Qi Min's generation, and the older generation of Lai people, are all struggling under the humiliation of the Qi people, and they are the ones who hate the Qi people the most, but they are the ones who are most eager to be accepted by the Qi people!

Such a complex relationship of love and hate is not something that Lu Yunzhou, Qi Ting and Qi Fei can understand!

Qi Min turned his head to look at Lu Yunzhou, his eyes were full of joy and relief: "Good, good, good!" Worthy of being my son! Yu'er, with your current skills, there is no need to continue to waste time in the Jixia School Palace, I will personally go to Master Xun to let you finish early! You are now a doctor of the Qi country, qualified to participate in the court meeting, the court at the beginning of next month, you will go to the court with your father, and your father will take you to familiarize yourself with the government of my Qi country! This year, Father will find an opportunity to arrange for you to travel abroad! ”

Lu Yunzhou looked at Qi Min in surprise, nodded and said, "I understand, father!" But father, the child has other ideas about the operation of the restaurant! ”

"Other thoughts?" Everyone looked at Lu Yunzhou in amazement.

Qi Fang suddenly laughed "haha": "Yu'er, what other amazing ideas do you have, let's say it together this time!" The next time I see Old Man Lu, I must tell him that I have found someone smarter than him, haha! ”

Qi Jing and Qi Min also looked at Lu Yunzhou with expectant eyes.

Lu Yunzhou organized the language and asked Qi Fang: "Third uncle, let me ask you a question, which element is the most important for a war?" ”

Qi Fang was stunned when he heard this, lowered his head and pondered for a while, and then decided on the answer with difficulty: "The most important thing should be intelligence!" Sun Tzu said: Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles! He also said: Go to the army and plot! If the enemy's accurate information is obtained, then even without spending a single soldier, it is possible to win the war, just like the old man Lu once used a letter to ask the Yan generals who occupied Liaocheng to voluntarily give up defending the city! It is not because Old Man Lu knows witchcraft and can demagogue, but because Old Man Lu is proficient in potential numbers, and has a thorough and accurate analysis of the situation between Qi and Yan at that time and the character and psychological analysis of that Yan general, so that he can achieve such a magical effect in the eyes of others! ”

Lu Yunzhou nodded at Qi Fang, and then turned to Qi Jing and Qi Min: "Father, uncle, what about the importance of intelligence to politics and business?" ”

Qi Min said without thinking: "Nature is extremely important! ”

Qi Jing's eyes flashed with wisdom, as if he had guessed what Lu Yunzhou wanted to say, but with a fat face, he said happily: "It is not an exaggeration to say that intelligence is the most important thing for businessmen!" ”

Lu Yunzhou breathed a sigh of relief, gritted his teeth and said, "What the child wants to say, there may be some big rebellion in the Qi country!" The child wants to use these restaurants to form an intelligence system that only obeys the orders of the Qi family! ”

Qi Jing had such an expression on his face, and said with a smile: "Yu'er, you don't know, in fact, our Qi family has its own source of intelligence, that is, those Qi family shops that have opened all over the country, will continue to pass back the information that is worth paying attention to in various countries!" This is not a big rebellion, all the families in various countries do this, after all, the information that can be transmitted back through this channel is not a secret! Qi Jing thought about it, as if he was afraid that Lu Yunzhou would be lost, and hurriedly comforted: "But at your young age, you can think of this by yourself, you are already a real genius!" ”

When Qi Min and Qi Fang heard this, they both withdrew their expectant eyes, looked at each other and smiled, they both understood what each other meant, they both felt at this moment that it was time for Lu Yunzhou to really start participating in the specific affairs of the family!

Unexpectedly, Lu Yunzhou shook his head and said, "Uncle, I didn't mean that, I mean, we can install eavesdropping devices in every private room in the restaurant!" ”

"What?"

Lu Yunzhou's words moved everyone again, and Qi Min's gaze immediately became serious.

"That's a good idea, what kind of device is it?"

The corners of Lu Yunzhou's mouth hooked up a smile, in fact, this kind of eavesdropping device was used by two people in the original book, namely Xinlingjun of Wei State, and Wu Fu, the boss of Drunken Wind Building of Qin State!
