Great Qing Dynasty talker

Chapter 35: Set a trap for Lao Hu
"I would like to discuss the ownership of Cunjutang's brand name."

As soon as Li Yu spoke, their expressions changed.

Crow stood up and said coldly:

"Cunjutang was created by my eldest brother. Now that my eldest brother is gone, it naturally belongs to my sister-in-law."

"Brother's body is still cold, military advisor, you won't just jump out and grab the font name, will you?"

The atmosphere instantly turned cold.

Li Yu just drank tea and said nothing, seeming to be thinking.

After a while, he slowly said:

"The name of Cunjutang belongs to you. Since we are separated, we should do it more thoroughly."

crow:"……"

Sister-in-law: "..."

The two of them had a feeling of frustration as if they punched hard, but their waists were knocked out of the air.

"This tea is good. Now that today's matters are settled, I will take my leave."

Li Yu stood up, walked down the stairs, and left the courtyard with the complicated eyes of everyone.

The sister-in-law's heart skipped a beat.

Why doesn't he try again?
Just like that, throw away the printed gold letter?

Is my mother a man-eating tiger?
……

"Military advisor, you just gave them the typed font size, right~" Lin Huaisheng couldn't help but ask.

"The cutting is clean, so we won't be implicated by them in the future. Spread the news as soon as possible and let everyone in the world know about it." Li Yu seemed to be relieved, "Come on, accompany me to the Luo Ma Market."

Luoma City is on the north side of Fucheng.

As soon as you enter, you will be greeted by a rich flavor.

Li Yu wants to buy a horse to make traveling easier.

The speed of taking a boat is still a bit slow, and it is easy to miss something in an emergency.

The price of a young horse or an old horse is around six taels.

Packhorse prices are slightly higher.

The horses for riding are generally more than 10 taels.

Yili horses are the most expensive, starting at 40 to [-] taels.

Li Yu fell in love with a black horse, whose body looked like black satin. He stood proudly and independently outside the group of horses, feeling a little lonely as snow.

The temperaments of horses and people are a perfect match.

Take a look at the teeth, they are around 3 years old.

Lin Huaisheng also bought one. He paid half of the money himself, and Li Yu paid the other half.

We arrived at Jinjixun in the east of the city in half an hour, and we were not tired at all.

……

Mr. Hu is pulling a net by the lake.

He lowered several nets every day, as well as some thin-mouthed and wide-belly tubes made of bamboo strips.

Satisfy his oral desires without spending any money.

However, after seeing Li Yu, he actually blushed.

Even he himself found it baffling why he felt embarrassed.

He didn't wear official robes or boots, just a coarse cloth jacket with three patches.

Barefooted, wearing a bamboo hat, and with a fishy smell on his hands, he looked like a fisherman.

"Oh, Mr. Li didn't even notify you in advance when he came. I can sell wine, cut meat, and catch a few big fish in advance."

"Mr. Hu Ba is too outspoken. We are good brothers who have fought together and carried guns together. There is no difference between us."

Li Yu smiled and took out a piece of broken silver from his arms.

He said to the green camp soldier who just led the way:
"Master, please make me a pot of wine and cut two pounds of meat. The extra money will be used as money for running errands."

"okay."

The green soldier happily took the silver and ran away.

After excluding the money spent on food and drinks, he made a net profit of half a tael.

It only takes half an hour, so worth it.

Mr. Hu looked at him with hot eyes and thought that he might as well take a trip, but he was too embarrassed to say it out loud.

During the Golden Rooster Flood, there are four barracks in total.

One is the dormitory of the flood soldiers, Datongpu.

Lao Hu had a room to himself, which was the privilege of being an official.

"The house is a mess. Someone come and clean it up."

A green camp soldier quickly ran over and helped clean up the mess.

Looking from the window, there are sparkling waves and reeds flying around.

Li Yu lamented that after more than 200 years of this ruined land, those who could live here would either be rich or noble.

……

"Mr. Li, what's the matter with you today? I'm sorry for you, Old Hu." "I said goodbye to the battlefield last time, so I wanted to come and visit my brother and catch up on old times."

"I miss you too. Thanks to you last time, my brothers and I got silver rewards and were praised by our superiors."

"That's not right. Logically speaking, your military merit can be upgraded to one level."

"Huh, I used to be an additional foreign affairs general manager, but now I am promoted to a serious foreign affairs general manager, starting from the ninth rank."

Li Yu almost broke his guard and held back his laughter.

It turns out that the boss, Lao Hu, is a parallel import among parallel imports.

Extra outsourcing, not in the mainstream, no grade, probably equivalent to temporary workers.

His superior is the outsourcing manager, which is equivalent to a dispatched employee.

The next level up is the general manager, who is equivalent to a formal employee.

"Congratulations to Chief Hu, he will surely rise to great heights in the future, and he may even be the Commander-in-Chief of the Army."

Just in time, the food and wine were delivered.

A plate of beef, a plate of pork head, a plate of shredded jellyfish, a plate of fried peanuts, and a jar of Xinghuacun.

Lao Hu suddenly felt hungry and unbearable, and his eyes glowed green.

"I'm really sorry that my brother spends money to be my guest."

"Brother Hu says that again, and I'm going to get angry. He's so clear-cut, and he obviously doesn't regard me as his brother." Li Yu looked angry.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I punish myself with three cups." Lao Hu gurgled, drank three cups in a row, and wiped his mouth happily.

Li Yu had reason to suspect that he was taking the opportunity to drink more and occupy more.

……

After three rounds of drinking, Lao Hu’s face was already flushed.

It's been a long time since I've been so open to porn. The last time was in Mianyue Tower.

But last time there was a civil servant there, and the place was too high-end, so I couldn't let it go and I couldn't enjoy the meal.

Today's specifications are neither too high nor too low, just right.

"Brother Hu has achieved such military exploits, but he is just a small foreign affairs commander. It is unfair to the court."

"I already have enough. I have an unshakable 2 taels and 5 cents of silver per month and 3 bushels of white rice. If I were in my hometown, I wouldn't even think about it."

Mr. Hu’s hometown is in southern Henan, an area where the Yellow River flows.

According to him, there have been floods in two out of three years, and there will be a dyke break every few years.

If he hadn't asked someone to send some money home from time to time, he would have starved to death.

"My hometown is miserable. When the Yellow River bursts its banks, we can't even grab the bark of the trees, and there are dead people everywhere."

As he spoke, tears filled Lao Hu's eyes.

Li Yu was also quite moved, so he asked tentatively:
"Just let them all come to Suzhou Mansion. The Yellow River can't flood this side."

"It's too difficult to say less than 50 taels of silver."

Li Yu thought, finally found his weakness.

"I'm going to make a deal recently. Brother Hu, just buy a share. When the dividends are received, you can save 50 taels in one or two years."

"Really?"

"Don't believe me?"

"No, no, I definitely believe it. Brother Xian is a good person. The last time we suppressed the bandits, Magistrate Zhang favored you very much."

Li Yu waved his hand, the clouds were calm and the wind was gentle.

Tell him to come closer and whisper.

"I'm just telling you one person. Magistrate Zhang also has a stake in this business."

Mr. Hu’s eyes were bright and frightening. Although he was uneducated, he was not stupid.

A business that involves all the magistrates and adults is not profitable.

Brother Li is still kind.

……

"Well, what kind of business is that? How much money does it cost to invest in it?"

Li Yu looked at his squirming and embarrassed expression and continued to set the trap.

"One hundred taels per share."

"So much? Be good."

"Not much. During the Chinese New Year, the dividends will probably double."

In an understatement, Mr. Hu froze with a piece of pig head meat between his arms and was speechless for a long time.

"But I have no capital."

"I'll show you a clear path."

"Brother, tell me quickly."

"Gather funds. Find your brothers, each of you can raise some money. If you have money, we can all make money together."
