At this time, Lu Songli didn't know the feelings of Ji Wuyin's master and servant, and she was making the final calculation in her heart.

They earned 900,000 stone of grain in Nanyang this time, and according to the market price, the 500,000 stone transported back to Liaodong County was calculated at the current grain price of 160 wen per bucket, and the 400,000 stone left in Luoyang was calculated according to 100 wen per bucket, which was equivalent to 1.2 million taels of silver they earned, minus 400,000 taels for the Cao Gang, and minus the operating expenses of the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce. After all, the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce also dispatched a lot of people, all of whom wanted to eat.

She collected 200,000 taels of operating expenses meaningfully.

In the end, Lu Songli decided to take out 600,000 taels of silver as dividends.

As soon as she calculated, her subordinates reported that Lan Bingrong and others had arrived one after another.

Lan Bingrong, Geng Yuan and the other eight people had already arrived, and when they saw that Lu Songli hadn't come yet, they couldn't help but start whispering.

"I don't know why you called us this time?"

"It should be a good thing."

"I heard that Mr. Wu took a team of people from the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce to Luoyang."

"Yesterday, the wharf of Fangxian County and Anshi City was full of grain ships from the Cao Gang."

"I also heard that the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce and the Ji Merchant Association have joined forces to stir up the wind and rain in Nanyang, kill all directions, and overturn the local grain merchants and chambers of commerce."

Hearing this, they all looked amazed.

It was at this time that Lu Songli came in.

She looked around and smiled, "All here?" ”

"Yes, President Lu called, can we not come."

"Okay, without further ado, I'll just say it. Everyone should have heard of it, our Liaodong Chamber of Commerce has made a fortune in Nanyang. I won't say much about the specifics. I called you here this time to settle your money and the dividends this time. ”

Lu Songli's words made the minds of everyone present float.

Lu Songli revealed to them that the amount of funds used in this transaction was 5 million taels, and their Liaodong forces accounted for 3 million.

In these three million taels, the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce contributed 1.5 million taels, she raised 1.2 million taels from Lan Bingrong, Geng Yuan and others, Qin Heng contributed 200,000 taels on behalf of the Qin family, and she and Qin Sheng took 100,000 taels to make a whole.

Now, their Liaodong forces have distributed materials worth 1.2 million taels, and they have earned a net profit of 600,000 taels after deducting costs.

It is equivalent to every 10,000 taels of capital contribution, and the dividend is 2,000 taels.

After calculating clearly, Lu Songli asked people to bring the silver and settle it on the spot.

Holding the silver, Geng Yuan was a little confused, he invested 100,000 taels, and in two months, he actually got 20,000 taels? It's a good deal, isn't it?

He glanced at Lan Bingrong next to him, this guy invested 150,000 taels and got 30,000 taels, more than him, jealous.

They are taking risks in their investments, but the returns are really high. If the 100,000 taels were lent to the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce, he would only earn back 6,000 taels of interest a year. It's only been two months now, and I've earned 20,000 taels.

After all the silver was distributed, Lu Songli asked, "Have you all confirmed that it is correct?" ”

"President Lu, we have all counted them, and there is no trace of error."

Lu Songli nodded, "That's good, this stage will be here first, you can go back." ”

"President Lu, next time the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce encounters a situation where the funds are not available, just say it. Others don't know, but I'll definitely be generous. Geng Yuan immediately showed his loyalty.

Not to be outdone, the others said, "Yes, President Lu, if you want to find us with money, don't be polite." ”

They found out, following the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce, there was meat to eat.

Next, if there is such an opportunity, they promise to point to wherever they want, and they will never say anything.

Seeing that they were so positive, Lu Songli smiled, "Okay, I'll look for you next time if I don't get the money." ”

The next day, the holy decree that Lu Desheng was promoted to the assassin of Pingzhou because of his merits finally arrived.

Along with this, there was also Shi Tao's deposing decree.

At this time, the backyard of the Liaodong County Shoufu had already been placed with incense cases.

The justice who came to announce the decree was reciting the decree aloud: "Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: Since ancient times, the sages have ruled the country, relying on the assistance of talents." There is a capable minister Lu Desheng, who has both talent and virtue, outstanding ability, and has been used by the world. During his tenure, he made great efforts to govern the country, shared worries for the monarch, offered advice to Nanyang, contributed to the country, and won the trust of the people, which is really a rare capable minister. Today, I am hereby rewarded by Heaven. From now on, he will be appointed as the history of Pingzhou Thorn! Thank you! ”

The Lu family shouted in unison, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

After Lu Desheng received the decree, he exchanged a few words with the father-in-law who passed the decree, and handed over the rest to the eldest son and Mr. Chen.

Lu Zhiyuan and Chief Manager Chen led the group of people who carried the decree to rest.

Lu Songli smiled and congratulated her father, "Dad, congratulations, congratulations-" When the angel came, she was already on duty, so they greeted the holy decree together.

Lu Desheng smiled reservedly, "Rejoice and rejoice." ”

Hmph, now he is the biggest in Pingzhou, no one dares to let him go out on a rainy day, right?

And in the Pingzhou territory, no one dares to let him be a little low, right? Hmph –

The Jiang family ignored their father and son, and announced that there was happiness in the family, and the subordinates would receive double the monthly money this month. Subsequently, she instructed her subordinates to put a few firecrackers at the gate, and at the same time moved a small basket of copper coins out to scatter them.

It was also at this time that the common people learned that they had been promoted, and they felt happy from the bottom of their hearts, and sincere congratulations came out of their mouths, and the atmosphere was lively and festive.

Jiangzhou, Linchuan County

Xie Bai found Xie Zhan and handed him a letter, "Family master, it's not good. ”

Xie Zhan: "Why are you so alarmed?" ”

"Master, read the letter, I can't tell you clearly." Running all the way, he was a little overwhelmed.

The letter was written by Zuo Anmin, and the letter said that Zhang Xian asked for credit for Lu Desheng, and after thinking about it, the emperor actually agreed, and the holy decree of canonizing Lu Desheng as the assassin of Pingzhou has set off. And with it came a decree to depose Shi Tao.

The letter was sent to the south, and Xie Zhan was not in the south at this time, the stakes were very high, Xie Bai just escorted a batch of grain back, he didn't care about anything, took the letter and went straight to Linchuan County.

After reading the letter, Xie Zhan felt that he needed to calm down.

He walked outside the door, when twilight fell, and the night breeze of late autumn carried the slightest chill, and his mind became clearer and clearer.

Lu Songli wants to take Pingzhou, which is expected. After all, Liaodong County is too small, which limits their development.

He has also been pondering recently when and how the other party will expand his territory.

In his opinion, Pingzhou has Shi Tao, a nail who generally sits on for ten years, and it is still difficult for Lu Songli to seek Pingzhou.

But he didn't expect that Lu Songli would do both, and his appetite was still so big, that he swallowed the entire territory of Pingzhou at once.

What he didn't expect was that Zhang Xian was willing to give away this heavenly credit, it seems that the relationship between the Lu family and Zhang Xian is stronger than he expected.

The most unexpected thing for him was Shi Tao's capsizing.

Shi Tao's ability is mediocre, but his victory lies in his loyalty to the Song family. It was precisely because of this that the first emperor took a fancy to him that he kept sitting on the seat of the assassin of Pingzhou.

He always felt that Shi Tao would not capsize.

After all, if he can't be capable, won't he be loyal?

A person only needs to be loyal to lick a high position, no matter what, this person will wear the skin of loyalty, right?

Xie Zhan was puzzled, hasn't Shi Tao done a good job over the years?

Now, who will tell him what Shi Tao did, and Song Mo can't bear him?
