Almighty Nongmen Phoenix

Chapter 488;

After Wang De and the others left, Lu Xiu realized this, and immediately looked at Lu Yaoyao excitedly.

"Yaoyao, what's going on?"

"Why were you suddenly knighted?"

"And it's the earl, this, this, this"

He was a little incoherent, not only Lu Kang and others next to him nodded repeatedly, but they were also full of question marks at this moment.

This surprise is too big.

You must know that the Lu family is just a family of merchants, and they are not the kind of big merchants. In this ancient society with strict hierarchy, the level is too low.

Later, it was because of Lu Yaoyao, the owner of Wanfu County, that the Lu family changed a little.

But there are only a few. After all, Lu Yaoyao is a woman. After she gets married, although she can continue to take care of the Lu family, it can't change the fundamental level of the Lu family.

It's different now, it's Mr. Lu who was knighted.

Although Emperor Hongwen only gave hereditary three generations, this fundamentally promoted the Lu family from a low-level merchant to a powerful one.

The time of three generations is enough for the Lu family to use this identity to do a lot of things. Even if there is no title in the future, the level will be completely different.

The fate of a family has changed, how can they not be excited?
Looking at Mr. Lu again, his hands holding the imperial decree were trembling, and there were tears in his vicissitudes of eyes.

This was his lifelong dream. Originally he thought he was incapable, so he raised his son, but in the end, his son was not good enough, so he could only pin his hopes on his grandson.

Then there was Lu Yaoyao, which made him very satisfied. With her as the Princess, and with such a deep relationship with her family, she will always find an opportunity to support her brothers and sisters in the future.

He no longer intends to continue to pursue more, after all, he is already old, and he does not intend to bother too much about what will happen to his children and grandchildren in the future.

I never thought that such a big surprise would come all of a sudden.

"Grandpa, you."

"Yaoyao, your grandfather is happy, it's fine, don't worry."

Lu Kang said with a smile.

"Yes, grandpa is happy, very happy."

Grandpa Lu nodded repeatedly, and then said, "Yaoyao, what you have done for the Lu family, grandpa will keep in mind, not only grandpa must remember."

After speaking, he looked at his elder son Lu Xiu for a moment, and continued, "Boss, immediately invite all the elders of our Lu clan over here."

"It's such a great event, everyone must be happy together."

Lu Xiu quickly nodded with a smile.

On the same day, all the elders of the Lu family gathered together, and everyone was very excited when they heard Lu Xiu say this.

This is the honor of the whole family.

"That's how things are. It can be said that the old man has such an opportunity, all thanks to Yaoyao."

"She is a great hero of my Lu family. I invite you here because I have a suggestion. Yaoyao has made such great contributions to my Lu family. Shouldn't she leave a strong mark on the family tree?"

The elders of the clan almost didn't think too much about it. Such a great contribution should be remembered by future generations.

"This must be done, even if you don't say it, the patriarch, it should be the case."

"Yes, there is no need to discuss this matter, I agree directly."

Mr. Lu was very satisfied with the reaction of the clan elders.

In ancient clans, the status of women was relatively low, and usually there were not too many descriptions in the genealogy, and many of them just left a name.

There are even some married women who don't even have a name, and they are all taken with a single stroke.

Being able to leave a strong mark on the family tree is a kind of recognition for a woman, and it is also a very high degree of recognition.

Usually, it was only possible for men with great achievements in the past.

After everyone celebrated, at nightfall, all that remained were the direct descendants of Mr. Lu.

Lu Yaoyao also stayed behind.

"Yaoyao, you made a very good decision to hand over the salt mine."

"It's not just because you exchanged this for the title of Grandpa, but because this salt mine is not accessible to us people."

Things like salt mines are important resources of the country, directly supporting the income of many countries.

Such a thing, it is not a benefit for them to hold it, but a disaster.

Just like the Han family, although they seem to be developing very fast and have a lot of wealth, there is always a crisis of genocide.

That is to say, Emperor Hongwen still has a lot of constraints nowadays. Once he frees up his hands, the Han family will definitely bear the brunt of being wiped out.

"Grandpa, I am very clear about this. The emperor originally wanted me to stay."

"Let me just say, I don't want to be the second Han family. Don't worry, I've made it clear to the emperor."

"Our Lu family will start a small business, and it won't make it difficult for the country."

"In this regard, you should be more involved in the future and restrain the family members, and don't cause some scandals just because the family is different now."

"A family wants to prosper, not to let others see how powerful the family is, but to keep a low profile and remember not to be high-profile."

What she said made old man Lu, Lu Kang and others nod repeatedly.

Making a fortune in silence is the kingly way, the more joyous a person is, the more dangerous he is.

"Don't worry about this matter, grandpa knows it well."

"In the past, there were few family rules. Wait until another day to discuss with the elders of the clan and the heads of each family. You come here too, and we will formally set the family rules together."

Lu Yaoyao nodded.

She did not return to Chengyuan Villa that day, but stayed at Lu's house.

On the other side, the steward of the Han family has also quickly sent the method of making snowflake salt obtained from Lu Yaoyao back to Hedong.

After many days, the Han family in Hedong produced the first batch of snowflake salt according to the method.

But they were not happy at all.

Because of what?
Naturally, it was because the purification method of this snowflake salt was too simple.

Such a simple method actually took away [-]% of the salt mine resources from them.

How can you be happy?

For this reason, the Patriarch of the Han Family got angry at the workers of the Han Family Salt Mine.

It's a pity that it's useless to get angry, the matter has come to this point, they only hope that things will go smoothly in the future.

The Han family's snowflake salt came out, but after paying so much, they urgently needed to make money quickly, so they sold the snowflake salt in the area that the court snowflake salt hadn't covered yet.

The price is higher than that of the imperial court, and at the same time, channels from various countries have been opened. Although they can't make a big splash, such good salt has allowed them to make a lot of money.

As soon as the income from the first batch of salt came back, the depressed mood of the members of the Han family eased a little.

However, before they had time to be overjoyed, Lord Zhen sent a letter.

Now Zhen Guogong also holds [-]% of the salt mine resources in his hands. Now that the court has produced snowflake salt, the Han family also has it, and Zhen Guogong has no more.

The two families made a move together, but they directly blocked the way for Lord Zhen Guo to get those green salts.
