This Zhao Facai is rampant in the township and also treats long-term workers harshly, and the people who deal with him have never made a bargain, so he has the nickname of Zhao Papi.

Lu Ning nodded and said.

"Uncle Wang, you don't have to worry about money, I have my own clever plan, but how is the thing I entrusted you to do?"

Wang Gui said to him in a low voice.

"This guy calculates the tenant long-term workers to the bones, and everyone doesn't want to work with him for a long time, and when you take over the one-year rent exemption, the wages of the long-term workers will rise by two percent, and everyone will express their willingness to work with you."

Lu Ning nodded, thinking in his heart, although Wang Gui is honest, his prestige in the family is still very high, and he has such a mouth, and the long-term tenants listen to him.

Wang Gui was still worried and said.

"However, this month, even if we buy more eggs, we have only earned more than 700 taels of silver, how can we have spare money to buy land?"

Lu Ning lowered his voice and said.

"This money is for other purposes, you keep it in your hands first and don't spend it, as for the money to buy land, I'll borrow it, but you must not say so much."

It turned out that when he first came here, he planned to lay out and buy these rich businesses.

Now the preparations are almost complete, and the rest of the things are as long as you can take out a loan at the county branch of Daming Bank.

So, he told Xiao Rong's family and said.

"You do as I say, make a big cake base, and then prepare fresh milk, honey, and fruits, and tomorrow I will go into the city to be of great use."

Early the next morning, he made a very large fruit cake, put it in a very fine gift box, hired a small sedan chair in the town, and accompanied him into the county seat.

His first target was the largest tailor shop in the county, so he took a very expensive dress to change on his body, and also made a very delicate small folding fan.

Then, he took a sedan chair and went straight to the branch of Daming Bank in Xicheng.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I heard someone shouting very arrogantly outside.

"You're blind, and if you don't look at where it is, you're going to break in, but this is Daming Bank, if you don't listen to the greetings, you will naturally be punished as a robbery."

Feeling that the palanquin drivers were a little flustered, Lu Ning instructed them.

"Don't get entangled, just take a detour to the back street, let's go directly to the Yang family compound."

After a while, they came to the Yang family's compound and heard a woman say.

"This is Governor Yang's house, don't trespass, otherwise you will be punished for killing the imperial court officials."

It turns out that this branch is also a yamen of the ninth grade, and this woman is his wife.

This Mrs. Zhang kept many servants and maidservants, lived in a simple house, and never saw outsiders.

The palanquin man reported for him, who knew that the housekeeper here frowned and said.

"Madame doesn't see any outsiders, please go back, don't embarrass us people."

Lu Ning took out a small porcelain vase from his arms, and then handed a note written in advance to the doorman outside.

"Please give this to Madame, if he is willing to meet, I will be waiting at any time, if he is not willing to meet, I will turn around and leave, I will definitely not be entangled here."

"What's in this vial?"

"Heavenly Fragrance Dew."

The other party had to ask again, and Lu Ning said that his specific use was all on this note, and you only need to be responsible for handing it in.

The butler went in for a while, and immediately brought out another maid, who asked him very vigilantly, "Who are you?" ”

"I'm a businessman and a Chinese medicine practitioner."

The maid said directly: "Please come with me, sir, and Mrs. will wait in the outer living room." ”

In ancient times, women generally did not see outsiders, but when they had to do so, they had to be accompanied by a housekeeper in the house, and a curtain had to be drawn in the middle, and the female dependents only bowed in the curtain.

Lu Ning entered the living room, and sure enough, he saw a graceful figure behind the bamboo curtain.

"Your fragrance is very effective this day, I like it very much, let's say, what do you want to give me such an expensive medicine?"

Lu Ning got straight to the point and said directly.

"I want to ask your master for a loan of three thousand taels of silver."

Mrs. Zhang smiled indifferently and asked.

"This is a mortgage, and the interest is not cheap, has Mr. thought about it?"

"I use the formula of Tianxiang Dew as collateral, you must know that this perfume is far better than the so-called gouache sold on the street, and it can also remove the smell of foxes, and the magic is endless.

Mrs. Zhang smiled, but still asked.

"Aren't you afraid that we'll copy your recipe after we take it?"

Lu Ning smiled faintly and said.

"In addition to the formula, the configuration of this thing is also quite exquisite, and if there is the slightest difference, all the medicinal materials will be invalidated."

Mrs. Zhang was a little speechless and said directly.

"You...... What a profiteer! ”

Seeing that the woman was a little angry, Lu Ning handed over his food box.

"There is also a way to make this cake, which can also be used as collateral, and if I use it to make money, it is enough to make the entire pastry industry in the whole city unemployed."

As he spoke, he handed the food box in and let Mrs. Yang taste it.

When Mrs. Yang saw the fruit and cream on it, she naturally liked it very much, and cut a small piece with a knife inside and tasted it.

"Sure enough, it's extraordinary, Yun'er, tell the housekeeper to serve tea, Xiang'er, you go to the bank and ask the master to come back to discuss, this is a money-making business."

After speaking, she blessed Lu Ning and went back to the inner room.

The housekeeper entertained Lu Ning beside him, and after a while, President Yang walked back.

He saw his wife first, and after asking the reason, he found Lu Ning very enthusiastically.

"Lu Gongzi's mind is ingenious, he is really a god, and the official admires it very much, if you don't dislike it, how about going to the Baiwei Building in front for a light meal."

After a meal, the loan was naturally completed.

Lu Ning's two patents were mortgaged in the bank, and the silver bill of three thousand taels of silver arrived in his hand.

He didn't say a word, and hurried back to Dawangzhuang.

As soon as I arrived in Zhuangzi, I heard a scream inside.

I saw that Lao Wang's family had surrounded many people, and there were a few vicious thugs beating Lao Wang and his wife, and Xiao Rong and Genbao were held down by other thugs and did not ask them to report the news.
