Almighty Nongmen Phoenix

Chapter 99; Conversation

"It's not that there is no chance, it's just a little dangerous."

In the afternoon, after Li De delivered the decree, she had roughly guessed some thoughts of Emperor Hongwen.

Although it was using the Lu family, or even pushing the Lu family directly to attract the firepower of the gentry.

But she didn't feel dissatisfied.

After all, the Lu family is already like this now.

Gao Yanming stared at him, even if he didn't offend the gentry faction, the other party might not let them go.

That being the case, why bother to insist that there is nothing wrong with each other?
Besides, the Lu family needs to develop and improve their status.

Leaning on Emperor Hongwen is the best choice.

"Oh? Listen to what you said, do you have a way to promote the Lu family to become an imperial merchant?"

Ever since Lu Yaoyao suddenly mentioned Huangshang just now, he has noticed something.

It's just that this imperial businessman can't do it casually. Although the niece has won the favor of His Majesty, she has won a reward, and she was also named a township monarch.

But it doesn't mean that she will have the ability to push the Lu family from an ordinary businessman to the position of an imperial businessman.

However, now that she said this, Lu Kang's eyes brightened.

"Second uncle thinks highly of me too."

Lu Yaoyao shook his head.

If there was no other way, she really wouldn't let the Lu family get involved in the struggle between Emperor Hongwen and the faction of the gentry.

"It's just that the person above has some ideas."

"Oh? Really?"

Lu Kang immediately became excited.

Since the person above has such a heart, then the Lu family will definitely not be in trouble this time.

When he heard that the Lu family was suspected of treason, his heart fell to the bottom. Fortunately, he has a capable niece.

But never expected that the Lu family would have such an opportunity.

Sure enough, if you survive a catastrophe, you will have a future blessing?

"Second uncle is not at the house today, His Majesty arranged for someone to come with me in the afternoon, and went to Cheng's farm with me."

She succinctly talked about what happened this afternoon, and of course she focused on rice paper and living printing, as well as what Li De passed on after delivering the decree.

After listening to her story, the excitement and joy on Lu Kang's face had disappeared.

There is a trace of solemnity in the eyes.

"You mean, it is possible for His Majesty to hand over the business of rice paper and living printing to the Lu family?"

"It should be so."

Lu Kang frowned, pondered for a moment, and said again; "Doesn't that mean that the Lu family will directly have a party with the gentry?"

How powerful is the gentry faction?

It's definitely not something that a small family like the Lu family can fight against. If one is not careful, the entire Lu family may be destroyed.

The title of Huangshang is indeed very good, and it is also full of temptation for a businessman like Tanmo.

But if he wants to gamble the whole family to win, he still hesitates.

"What do you think?"

After this period of contact, he no longer regarded Lu Yaoyao as a little girl who knew nothing about the world.

Whether it's the various things in her hands, or her ideas, and her means of communication and relationship.

I don't know how much better than him.

"Your Majesty is taking advantage of the Lu family."

"But considering the current situation of the Lu family and Gao Yanming's vicious methods, even if the Lu family can escape this time, there will be no next time."

Lu Kang secretly nodded in his heart.

Indeed, as long as Gao Yanming is around, the knife on the head of the Lu family will always exist.

It's not that if you don't provoke him, he will let the Lu family go.

"Since we can't live in peace, we must find a backer."

backing?

Indeed, among those who could compete with the gentry, Emperor Hongwen was the best choice.

It's just that he is still very worried. The faction of the gentry has been entrenched in Dongzhou for many years, with a deep foundation, and is deeply entangled with the imperial court.

It is true that Emperor Hongwen wanted to clean up the gentry, but it was nothing more than because he wanted to win benefits from the gentry.

If one day the gentry bowed their heads and retreated because of too much pressure, the Lu family's position would become very awkward. It's hard to say what will happen then.

However, Lu Yaoyao's words are also quite correct. Given the current situation of the Lu family, they really need a backer to deter the gentry.

Besides, if Emperor Hongwen really wanted to ask them to do this by name, would they have the ability to refuse?

"This matter is too big, and I don't know how to decide."

"Why don't you procrastinate for a while, let's discuss after your grandfather and uncle go to Beijing."

"Well, in fact, His Majesty didn't say it clearly, but he just had a little idea, and it sounded like he wanted to ask for opinions."

"And this matter is very big, and it will take time to plan."

Lu Kang nodded.

"It's getting late, the second uncle will go back first."

"Well, second uncle, go slowly."

After sending Lu Kang away, Lu Yaoyao pondered for a long time alone.

This matter still depends on Emperor Hongwen's specific plan.

Let's go to the palace tomorrow to find out.

Today, she also had a busy day and was a little tired, so she asked Qiu Yu to bring hot water.

Lying on the bed, she summoned the universal search engine interface.

Sure enough, in the lower right corner of the interface, many hints for earning points were found.

There are points for making perfume, and there are also points for distillers.

After scanning her side earlier, the points have already caused a lot of trouble, but looking at it now, there are more than [-] points.

"I don't know if I can get points for distilled alcohol."

The next day.

After breakfast, she asked Qiu Yu to go to the study to fetch the things she had arranged yesterday.

There are two copies in total, one is the same as the one given to King Jin, all kinds of information about sweet potatoes and potatoes, how to eat them, as well as planting methods and precautions.

The other one is about living printing and the production process of rice paper.

With two documents, he greeted Qiu Yu and left the house.

As for Qiushuang, she has other things to do today and needs to stay at the mansion to make arrangements.

The master and servant first took the carriage to Wenfu, because Wen Songtao and Wenxuan had not returned early, so she directly handed over the materials about sweet potatoes and potatoes to Su Shi.

Ask her to help pass it on to Wen Songtao.

"Auntie, this thing is very important, you must pay attention to it."

The news of sweet potatoes and potatoes has already been spread, and Emperor Hongwen went out of the palace to check on these things in person. This attention will attract the attention of many people.

"I can save it, I haven't congratulated you yet."

"Yesterday, I heard from the master that His Majesty gave you a lot of rewards."

Today's Su family does not dare to underestimate the girl of ordinary background in front of her.

Although she was very kind to Lu Yaoyao in front of her, it was more because of her father's attitude, and Lu Yaoyao pulled her to cooperate with the eldest princess to do business.

Yesterday her master said that His Majesty opened the mouth and said that he would be Lu Yaoyao's backer.

It is already extraordinary to be able to enter His Majesty's eyes, let alone receive such favor from His Majesty.

Based on this point, Lu Yaoyao is superior to many noble ladies in the capital.

Lu Yaoyao stayed at Wen's house for a while, and then got up to leave after thinking that it was almost time to leave.

Mrs. Su personally sent Lu Yaoyao out of the mansion.

"Sister Lu's family is really blessed, which is very enviable."

Wen Miaomiao looked at the carriage heading towards the palace with envious eyes.

Walking freely in the palace is an honor that many officials' children envy.
