dragged back and forth, until Lu Xu and the others were about to set off, and finally selected four young people.

These four people, without accident, are all mixed-race.

They are young, they have never traveled far and they don't understand nostalgia, and along the way, they are all chattering with great interest to ask others if they have been to the town of Oki?

Is there really a lot of rivers in the southern counties of Oki, and is it true that every household has to row a boat?

Will they have a chance to go back to their hometown?

As the four people who learned Daqi dialect the fastest, and also the four people who had seen the world the least in the entire team, they quickly tasted the pain and joy of being ridiculed by half of their clan for being lame and being praised by the other half of their clan for their rapid progress in Daqi dialect.

Turning over Dengyun Mountain, facing the vast snowfield, it was the same freshness for them, and they were shocked to see Lu Xu's skilled fishing, and others told them how wide the river was under their feet and how beautiful the river was in summer.

After passing through each tribe, looking at the different camps of those large and small tribes, and their completely different lives, they were inexplicably shocked by the huge impact of the world.

When they finally returned to Beiting County and saw the city made of loess and stones, they were even more deeply shocked.

It's so big, it's so majestic.

The half-grown children from the tribes of Oki Castle, who had never been in contact with them, were also shocked.

What a big camp!

That's a lot of people!

In their minds, no tribe was built like this.

How, then, can they graze?

What do they live on?

The Daqi officials who have been away from home for a long time are also a little dazed and unfamiliar when they look at the small town that is being built everywhere.

But the officials in the city, who were directing the building of houses, saw them and cheered.

"Your Excellency is back!"

"Go and call Lord Xiao Lu, Lord County and Lu Tou'er are back!"

Chapter 318: Bold

When Lu Xu and the others returned, Lu Zhou was organizing a caravan to go south to Beiguan County to trade.

The materials brought by Mei Mengxi were too timely, and they relieved a lot of pressure on the county government, whether it was food or other materials, they were all things they were lacking.

With so many things being shipped, how to arrange them has become a difficult problem.

He Chengye kept Lu Xu's entrustment in mind, and told Lu Zhou at the beginning that Lu Zhou was in charge of the control, and he was only responsible for issues involving safety and security and conflicts and contradictions with the barbarians, and the rest was up to Lu Zhou.

Of course, if Lu Zhou encounters a problem that he thinks he can't solve, he can come and ask him, and he will definitely help.

He Chengye was also curious about what Lu Zhou would do if he suddenly had so many supplies.

He roughly estimated that the things that King Rui got for Lu Xu were worth less than 10,000 taels, in addition to all kinds of food, there were many bits and pieces, and he didn't know how valuable the materials were.

Even for seasoned adults, it's enough to keep so many things safe.

How to take care of it, how to prevent theft, how to distribute?

So many things have entered the county seat, but no one can hide it, the people of the county town, the nearby barbarian tribes, are eagerly waiting to watch.

And in the county seat, except for his tiger army, there are not many officials in the yamen, and he is very curious about how far Lu Zhou can go.

Interestingly, Lu Zhou didn't seem to take these supplies as pressure at all.

He Chengye said that he would not take the initiative to care, Lu Zhou nodded and responded, so He Chengye couldn't help but tell him, don't be shy when you encounter problems, don't feel that it's all his responsibility, and don't know how to deal with problems must be asked.

Lu Zhou also agreed obediently.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Zhou took the Tiger Ben army who escorted the supplies and all the officials in the city for two days to classify the goods.

He was the brain alone, while checking the bills brought by Mei Mengxi, while directing which room to store what goods, and locking and sealing them according to whether they would be used urgently after they were full, and each room was also arranged to be in charge of guarding the errand.

He has a key, a guard officer, and a place to store valuables to ensure that there are people at all times.

The houses where grain and bulky items were stored were patrolled by officers in teams of two in three shifts.

The house was not enough, he left food and daily necessities outside, and when the room was filled, he took the paperwork registered by Yan Junqi and began to distribute items according to the population size of the nearby town.

Mei Mengxi also watched him put in the materials with great interest, and when he saw him spending so much, he was curious: "This is all bought by your brother's own money, and you just gave it away?" ”

Lu Zhou held up his notebook: "I have an account." ”

He remembered exactly what was sent to each town, what kind, how many.

In the future, everyone's life will be better, and it will be slowly repaid.

He has explained to the officials who are going to send the materials to the past, and when he arrives, he has to make it clear to the people that this is all lent to them, and there is no interest on the repayment of the principal in three years, and if it is not paid in three years, the interest will start to be calculated in the fourth year.

If the other party does not want to borrow it, they will bring it back as it is, and they will never force it.

After arranging supplies for the towns, he summoned the merchants in the county to take their "passbooks" to buy the goods.

This time there were many items and a dazzling array of them, and the small merchants who had done business with the barbarians before saw it straight.

Lu Zhou still continued Lu Xuding's plan, they will not retail, only wholesale, and how much they want is up to them.

After he finished speaking, more than half of the conservative merchants in the county borrowed another thirty or fifty taels and began to purchase.

The most ruthless one has to borrow two hundred taels in one go.

Lu Zhou: "The interest is calculated at 5%, and I have to repay 210 taels after a year, do you really want to borrow?" ”

The merchant gritted his teeth and nodded: "Borrow!" Little Lord Lu, write it! ”

Lu Zhou didn't blink his eyes, and immediately criticized.

As long as he registered his name information, pressed his handprint, and kept a file in the county office, he immediately borrowed it for his brother.

The merchants quickly spent all the money they had borrowed and exchanged it for the new arrivals.

The house stacked by the county government was empty again, and Lu Zhou had a bunch of bills.

Mei Mengxi's hometown is also a developed area of commerce and trade, and their family also has a lot of shops, and their relatives also have money banks, but Lu Zhou's generosity still makes him can't help but be shocked.

Poor people who are poor and have nothing, just take a piece of paper at no cost and no guarantee and treat it as real money?

Ten taels or twenty taels per person is not much, but it adds up to a lot of money.

He tactfully reminded Lu Zhou that it was better to be conservative.

He had transported so many things from the capital all the way, and it was not easy on the road.

Lu Zhou said seriously: "No, they take the land as a guarantee, ten acres for men and five acres for women, they all have capital." ”

Mei Mengxi: "......"

Isn't he just here, doesn't he know the land of this group of people?

Could it be that they can't repay their debts, and Lu Zhou took the IOU to the barbarians to ask for land?

He thought about it, but he didn't persuade much.

This is the Lu family's money, and the two brothers are their own brothers, and they love to spend what they want.

It's nothing if you lose, anyway, King Rui can make money in the capital.

Thinking of the sky-high blueberry snacks sold by Rui Wangguan Hailou and the dishes made by the daily limited amount of Guanwai mushrooms, he couldn't wait for Lu Zhou to lose a little.

Lu Xu is lacking in morality, and he praises this thing to the sky, what kind of snow treasures, mountain elves, and tiger's dens...... Bah!

He can make up more than he can write a script.

Isn't this the wild vegetable that their county government eats every day?!

If you can't eat enough steamed buns, you can cook a plate of things mixed with some sauce to fill your stomach, and sell them as fairy grass in the capital, won't your conscience hurt?

Thanks to the rich people in the capital, they would not go outside the border, otherwise with the money they were trapped, they would have to hire a murderer to stab Lu Xu twice.

As one of the victims, Mei Bangyan was extremely smart and active, and he did not complain about the silver he lost, but changed his mind and went to the small merchants in the county to buy local products from Beiting County.

What blueberries, mushrooms, bone carvings, hides, gems from the barbarians......

Throw it back and sell it in your own shop, and you can earn back the money you spent in no time.

The building near the water is the first to get the month, and he can also work hard to pick good quality in the production area.

The simple and honest people of Beiting County, knowing that he was an official who escorted supplies and a big official, liked him very much, and saw that he liked to eat small fruits and mushrooms, so they didn't need any money, and they picked up big and good quality to give him for nothing.

Mei Bang's eye art is bold, and he learned barbarian from Lu Zhou for a few days, and practiced with Avi for two days, so he went to the market with the merchants.

He decided to go to the bazaar to see if the barbarians would bring anything interesting.

However, the bazaar, which mainly focused on exchanging basic living supplies, soon disappointed him.

Except for the fried mushrooms, the blueberry yogurt, and the jerky were delicious, most of the items they traded had already seen before, and there was really nothing he could look at.

Soon, he discovered the only thing that interested him in the entire bazaar -

Salesroom.

Lu Xu is not there, Lu Zhou will not appraise, and the exchange point will only accept basic items.

He didn't stop the auction, but he didn't bring their luxury goods, but only acted as an organizer, helping the barbarians who came to exchange for bidding.

Lu Zhou won't be valued, but Mei Mengxi will.

Unlike Lu Xu, who relies on other people's reactions to speculate on value, he can really understand it.

He was born in a family in Nanjun, and his wealthy family background allowed him to see all kinds of rare treasures since he was a child, so that when Lu Xu held an exhibition in Yuehui Building, he was not very interested, and he couldn't look down on it.

In addition, his grandfather is also a well-known collector in their hometown, he has been nurtured since he was a child, and he is very expert in connoisseurship.

He only needs to take a few closer looks, and he can judge the value of an item from the material and craftsmanship of the item.

He is not familiar with the things of the barbarians, otherwise he can still evaluate the historical age of the items.

Even so, it was easy for him to compare which of the two or three things was more valuable.

He was used to being arrogant, his barbarian vocabulary was insufficient, and his evaluation of other people's things became more and more simple and rude, and he soon annoyed some barbarians and scolded him for not understanding fart.

Mei Mengxi is an unhappy master who says that he won't go to the Hanlin Academy, can he be scolded in vain?
