When he woke up the next day, Lu An couldn't wait to go home.

Of course, despite the good performance during this time, when he came out, there were still two Rakji who followed.

However, after only three days of not seeing him, he found that his family seemed to have changed a lot.

"Daddy, they're—"

Seeing the two strange girls who were not very old suddenly appearing at home, Lu An asked curiously.

"Oh, hehe, Xiaojuan, Xiaoli, come and see the young master."

The two girls greeted each other and went back to another room.

Seeing that the old man's face was not natural, Lu An frowned.

In the remaining memories, the old man seems to rarely get close to women!

Even if he used to run a light smoke pavilion, he only let it grow savagely, and rarely asked about it personally.

In my impression, in addition to operating countless shops, the old man is spoiling him as a loser in a different way.

After a family change, it seems that even his temperament has changed, and he actually found two women at once!

"Dad, you didn't find me two stepmothers at once, did you? You're so old, it's terrifying. ”

"Nonsense!"

Lu Mancang's expression was stunned, and then he said strangely, "That's the female worker hired by my father!"

The underwear styles you gave Dad, Dad has already studied almost everything.

However, if you want to make money, how can you rely on your father alone?

That's why I hired two girls to come, so that I could come to the door to measure the size of the lady of the big family. ”

"Well, that makes sense, but I remember that I only gave you twenty taels of silver a few days ago, and in addition to buying fabric, do you have any money to hire someone?"

"Uh, this—"

Lu Mancang's eyes rolled, and then he smiled, "Dad has not been idle in the past two days, he has sold a few sets of underwear and made a lot of money." ”

Speaking of this, Lu Mancang took out a full two hundred taels of silver tickets from his arms and shook them in front of Lu An's eyes.

The underwear style drawn by Lu An is too novel, and it is not surprising that the sales are a little better.

But he always felt that something was not right with the old man's expression, as if he had an accident to hide from him.

"An'er, Dad thinks that our underwear business will definitely be popular, but if there is no suitable store, it is always not a way.

Dad plans to use the 200 taels of silver he earned to rent a shop first, and then hang up a sign, what do you think? ”

Lu Mancang seemed to deliberately change the topic, and Lu An thought of the purpose of his rush here.

"Daddy, I was just going to tell you about it.

The day before yesterday, when the emperor Sun Zhaohui went to the Qingyan Pavilion, I had already negotiated with him, and he would make a shop, and then give a hundred taels of silver to invest in our Duxiu Fang.

The shop is not far from the diagonal opposite of the Light Smoke Pavilion, and we can move there at any time. ”

"That's a good thing!" Lu Mancang's eyes lit up when he heard this.

"I didn't expect that the emperor of the dynasty would be able to cooperate with us, by the way, An'er, has the profit sharing been negotiated in the future?"

"Well, eighty-two, I account for eighty percent, and he accounts for twenty percent."

"Twenty percent?" Lu Mancang frowned, "It's not a good deal."

He only has a shop and a hundred taels of silver, and he accounts for 20% of the profit, and we have a big loss. ”

is worthy of being the richest man in the capital, and when it comes to business, the horn of the abacus sounds.

Lu An explained with a smile, "It's just a twenty percent profit, and what the child wants is Sun Zhaohui's identity!"

With him as the emperor, we will do business in the capital in the future, and I am afraid that no one will easily find trouble again. ”

"Yes! It's still thoughtful as my son. ”

Lu Mancang suddenly woke up.

"It took my father more than ten years to become the richest man in the capital, but unfortunately, because he offended a powerful person, his family property was wiped out!

Now that I think about it, it's because we don't have a strong backing!

As the old saying goes, greed does not fight with the rich, and the rich do not fight with the officials.

With the cooperation object of the emperor of the dynasty, it is worth it even if you let a little profit! ”

sighed with emotion, and Lu Mancang's eyes were wet again.

"Alas! Dad's biggest wish in this life is to let you be a carefree rich man.

It's a pity that Dad is useless, in the end, I want you to do things for our family, and even now I don't even have personal freedom......"

Lu An glanced at Lu Mancang speechlessly, and then glanced at the two young girls in the next room.

With Lu An's vicious eyes, it can be seen at a glance that those two girls are definitely not children of poor families.

Even if it's not everyone's ladies, at least it's a small jasper.

The Lu family is no longer the richest man in the capital before, how can it be possible to hire such a handsome person?

However, the old man has also survived for half his life, it is rare for him to like it, and Lu An doesn't want to interfere too much.

What's more, as long as Duxiufang's business is running, there will be no more than two people to eat.

"By the way, Dad, I left you two days ago, and I met robbers, do you know?"

"Well, Xiao Qingzi and I mentioned it, but knowing that you are fine, my father is relieved."

The corners of Lu An's mouth twitched.

If it weren't for the fact that the old man was too big and didn't even show any concern about his son's distress, then he must have put his mind on the two girls in the room.

"Dad, do you recognize the masked man who kidnapped me?"

"Shhhh

Lu Mancang was startled, and deliberately leaned at the door to see if there were ears on the wall.

"An'er, you can't talk nonsense!

Even if Dad is a bastard, he won't find someone to harm his own son, right? ”

"That's right." Lu An nodded, "But the little marquis of the Jing'an Hou Mansion suspects that the purpose of that masked robber is to save me from the capital, so I thought it was specially arranged by my father." ”

While asking this sentence, Lu An looked directly at each other with a pair of eyes.

"Ahem—"

Maybe Lu An was a little uncomfortable, Lu Mancang coughed lightly, "Our Lu family is not as beautiful as before, my father finally regained his freedom, and the most he has on him is the little silver you gave, where can I find someone to rescue you?" ”

There was nothing wrong with saying this, but Lu An still saw a little panic in the other party's eyes!

It's a pity that the old man has the intention to hide it, even if he asks again, I'm afraid there will be no result.

In short, one thing is certain, the old man will definitely not harm him.

"There is one more thing that the child finds a little inexplicable."

"Last night, the child accompanied the Lord of Phantom Cloud to Qingpingwan on the outskirts of the city to participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet hosted by the Seven Princes."

"During the banquet, the child accidentally offended the second prince and the little marquis, if it wasn't for the seventh prince to break the siege in time, I'm afraid the child would have been given a small life there."

"And I heard afterwards that the Seventh Prince helped me more than once, and last time the child was molested by the Lord of Phantom Cloud, it was also thanks to the Seven Princes' intercession that the child saved his life."

"Dad, does our Lu family have any special friendship with the Seventh Prince, or have you ever funded him in terms of money?"

"Otherwise, the child really can't figure out why he has repeatedly helped three times."

"The Seventh Prince?" Lu Mancang frowned slightly and shook his head.

"My father has never dealt with people from the Great Xia royal family, and he has never known any Seven Princes."

This time, Lu An saw it clearly.

The old man didn't seem to be hiding it from him.

In other words, even the old man didn't know why the Seventh Prince favored him.

"An'er, my father has been in business for more than ten years, but he has always avoided dealing with the government, let alone having any contact with the royal family.

This time you found the emperor to be a partner, and my father did not object.

After all, if someone is a backer, it can also save the powerful people from looking for trouble.

But Dad still has to remind you, don't get too close to the royal children! ”

"Hehe, this is natural, the child doesn't want to ask for trouble, and if he accidentally gets involved in some prince fight, it will be asking for hardship."

Lu An waved his hand aggressively.

But he never mentioned the invitation that the Seventh Prince had sent to him when he was leaving.

As for the masked robbers, the old man didn't want to say more.

As for the matter of the Seven Princes, it seems that he can only find a way to find the answer by himself.
