Chapter 32—The Net Has Been Cast
Lu Yu also got up and walked outside, while Li Yan followed behind him with some doubts, not knowing what Lu Yu was going to do.
"Boss Li, I don't know if you know the history of this station. Lu Yu also asked inexplicably.
Li Yan started to do business in the business of merchants in his early years, so he naturally knew it, and he still had some memories of the prosperity here.
Seeing Li Yan nodding, Lu Yu said again: "If I want to restore the glory of the past here, then what needs to be done." ”
Li Yan was shocked, he didn't expect this person's ambition to be so big, you must know that this post station was a link between several big cities and surrounding towns and villages, and it happened to be located in the center of these places.
One can imagine how prosperous the scene here was in the past, and the merchants never stopped, but such a place also disappeared overnight.
Didn't this person see the problem here, or was this person's heart so big, Li Yan was suddenly a little scared, although what this person wanted had no direct interest in him, but this plot was too big.
Not to mention those bandits, the decline of this post station has absolutely nothing to do with the surrounding forces, but the inside story is unknown.
"Boss Lu, your idea is too dangerous. Li Yan said with a hint of retreat.
Lu Yu didn't care, just said: "But this doesn't conflict with your interests, does it, even if something happens, it has nothing to do with you, I just need Boss Li to help me contact some merchants who are willing to believe in you, I am responsible for helping them transport the goods, and they only need to wait here." ”
I have to say that Li Yan was a little struggling, Lu Yu also saw this, and continued: "What's more, I'm just talking, who doesn't know that it's almost impossible to make the post station prosperous again, this is just a vision of mine." ”
With three points of falsehood and seven points of truth, it is the most believable thing, Lu Yu directly stated his purpose, so that the other party could believe that he had no plans against them, and then explain it so that the other party could feel easy to accept.
Out of his understanding of the merchant industry, Lu Yu concluded that Li Yan would never refuse such a temptation.
Sure enough, Li Yan agreed, but he was still a little worried: "I don't know how Boss Lu will pick up the goods and how he will deliver them." ”
"Hehe, Boss Li is afraid that I will catch you all, if this is the case, I'm afraid Boss Li will not appear on this road a long time ago.
Since Boss Li doesn't mean this, there is no need to talk about it anymore, I believe other people will be interested. ”
Seeing that Lu Yu was about to turn around and leave, Li Yan decided to take a gamble, no one wants to live under someone else's sharp knife for the rest of their lives, everyone wants to step on someone else's head, these merchants are even more so, every time they transport goods, there is a great risk, but why do they still do this.
On the one hand, of course, it is for money, and on the other hand, it is also for power, they believe that after the money reaches a certain amount, they can control their own destiny just like martial arts people can practice their skills to a certain extent.
What's more, martial arts people also have to eat and sleep, and most martial arts people don't make money and don't bother to be businessmen, and ironically, they work for businessmen they disdain in exchange for revenge.
From the first day of business, Li Yan firmly believed that money can also change status, and now he has begun to do a little bit, with his own first guard, although it is a drop in the bucket for hundreds or thousands of bandits, but at least he will not be frightened by a few people who block the road and rob them, right.
He knew that he wouldn't stop there, but he also knew that as he grew older, he began to be powerless, and now that he was in his 40s, would he still be able to run like this in a few years.
So he needed an opportunity, an opportunity to accumulate a lot of wealth in a few years, an opportunity to take him one step further in his lifetime, and that opportunity was now in front of him.
He has no way to refuse, this is Lu Yu's conspiracy, even if this ploy fails to him, he can also use it on others, he wants to get more money and have a higher status, and he doesn't want to see others surpass him.
Li Yan left, Lu Yu knew that his task was basically over, and then he just had to wait for Li Yan to inform him when he would go to the agreed place to pick up the goods.
Of course, in order to avoid being discovered, Lu Yu also said to his face that once the goods arrive at the place, they must not be left to guard them to avoid being discovered.
Although this will make people suspicious, as long as the people who get the benefits succeed once, there will be an endless stream of people coming the second time, and the number of people in Lu Yu Inn will skyrocket.
"The task of 100 new guests, I believe that those profit-seeking businessmen will soon be able to help me complete it, and the next thing is to wait for Zhu Cong's results. ”
As soon as the words fell, he saw Zhu Cong returning to the inn in a bit of embarrassment.
There were no outsiders in the inn at this time, and Lu Yu hurriedly asked Zhu Cong to change his clothes first.
"Boss, what kind of work are you, what do you mean to just secretly record the cooking process or just steal a recipe, why didn't you tell me that there are so many guards in that place. ”
Zhu Cong in the room began to recount the experience of this line of work, and it was quite smooth at first, and he entered the back kitchen smoothly according to Lu Yu's instructions.
And even more smoothly, they found the chef who had just come out of the room, and the chef usually recorded what he had learned, so he went into the room and searched and found the recipe.
It's just that after he walked out of the main kitchen room, Zhu Cong was discovered, and he didn't take it seriously, and he thought that he could do it casually with three or five ordinary guards.
It's just that I didn't expect these guards to be martial arts, and they were almost entangled, and there were surprisingly many guards inside, who would have thought that a restaurant would have more than ten guards who knew martial arts.
It's no wonder that Zhu Cong was always restless before he set off, but he was finally quite experienced in stealing chickens and dogs, and he finally escaped smoothly after chasing and escaping.
Lu Yu was also a little strange, when he entered, he looked at almost the entire Fengtai Restaurant and didn't find a few guards, could it be that these people are all newcomers?
"I'm sorry, I thought it would be effortless to go to that unguarded restaurant to do something with the skills of a second hand scholar, but I didn't expect there to be so many guards, what a miscalculation. Lu Yu said very apologetically.
It's just that when he heard these words in Zhu Cong's ears, he couldn't wait to spurt a mouthful of blood to Lu Yu, "Are you comforting, your miscalculation suddenly has more guards in it, or miscalculation, I didn't have that ability." ’
"Boss, can I beat you?" Zhu Cong seemed to have become a lot happier after coming here, and said jokingly after taking out a food notebook from his arms and handing it to Lu Yu.
Lu Yu took the notebook but suddenly said with a straight face: "If an employee beats the boss during the performance of the contract, the boss has the right to punish the employee to a certain extent, well, how about cleaning the stable for a month." ”
Zhu Cong's face suddenly collapsed, and it seemed that joking with the boss was absolutely unpleasant.
