Chapter 1011 Xu Shixing's Decision
Eight days passed quickly.

During these eight days, Luo Xin either played around or held literary meetings, living a carefree life.

After hearing Xu Shixing's words, the businessmen from the feudal kingdom stopped making trouble because they knew that Luo Xin was back.Luo Xin not only has great prestige in their hearts, but also has the greatest degree of trust.They also wanted to visit Luo Xin, but they were all rejected by Luo Xin.

On the eighth night.

Xu Luqing came to the Shibo Department with a tired face to ask Luo Xin, but Luo Xin didn't take a big deal, so he went out and invited Xu Luqing in.

Sit down and serve tea.

Then Luo Xin didn't speak, Xu Luqing squeezed a smile on his face and said:

"Lord Luo, I'm coming down to beg you."

"Tell me, I will help if I can." Luo Xin said with a smile.

Seeing the smile on Luo Xin's face and listening to Luo Xin's words, Xu Luqing felt even more uncertain.But he was cornered. Although he sold his property and got enough gold and silver, he couldn't buy enough goods.Because in the southeast, [-]% of the goods are monopolized by the five great families.If the Xu Mansion is given time to purchase slowly, it can also be purchased if it goes to a farther place, but it will cost more gold and silver.

but……

Luo Xin only gave the Xu family ten days, which was simply an impossible task.Therefore, Xu Luqing had no choice but to endure the humiliation and beg Luo Xin.Taking a deep breath, he lowered his posture and said:

"Can you give me a few more days?"

Luo Xin said lightly: "You can ask your father to ask His Majesty, if His Majesty agrees to allow a few days, I have no problem."

Xu Luqing was overjoyed in his heart. He secretly said in his heart that he was written by his father, and his father asked His Majesty again, regardless of whether His Majesty agreed or not. With the time of nearly ten days, he was able to prepare enough supplies, so he bowed to Luo Xin and said:
"Then thank you Lord Luo, I will go back and write a letter to my father."

Luo Xin looked at Xu Luqing who stood up with excitement on his face, and said lightly:

"Whether you write a letter or not, and when you write a letter has nothing to do with me. I just wait for the time limit to come. As long as the Xu family has no goods ready to trade, I will copy Xu's house."

"You..." Xu Luqing's face flushed with anger, "Are you playing tricks on me?"

Luo Xin narrowed his eyes, his face darkened, and said: "I don't have so much time and mood to play tricks on you. The time has already been set for your Xu family. Who do you think you are? You can change my will?"

"Okay, okay! Luo Xin, the future is long, and there will always be a day when mountains and rivers meet again."

Luo Xin said indifferently: "My father and I always meet again, and Mr. Xu must know the result of the meeting."

Xu Luqing stared at Luo Xin for a while, then flung his sleeves and left.

After he left, Xu Shixing turned around from behind and said with some concern:
"Master Luo, if you persecute and humiliate Xu Luqing like this, aren't you afraid that Xu's dog will jump over the wall?"

A flash of sternness flashed in Luo Xin's eyes: "If his Xu family dares to jump over the wall, I, Luo Xin, will dare to kill the dog. I'm afraid his Xu family doesn't have the guts."

While speaking, Lu Daqing came in, cupped his hands to Luo Xin and said, "Master Hou, Xu Luqing has gone to Lu's mansion."

"Tch..." Luo Xin couldn't help but sneered: "Xu Jie was famous as a timid and cautious person in Daming, how could his son be a desperate person? This is called a writer's biography."

"Is he going to the Lu Mansion?"

"Of course I want to ask the five great families to sell the goods to him."

"Will the five great families sell the goods to him?" Xu Shixing said with a trace of relief on his face: "If the five great families can sell the goods to the Xu family, the transaction will be completed, and the Shibo Department will be able to collect customs duties. "

"Do you think it's possible?" Luo Xin rubbed his temples and asked.

Xu Shixing was stunned and said, "Could it be that the five great families still refuse? Are they not afraid of Xu Jie's revenge in the future?"

"Alas..." Luo Xin continued rubbing his temples and said, "Ru Mo, you can't always keep your eyes on your one-acre three-point land, and always focus on the customs duties of the Shibo Division."

Xu Shixing's face turned red and he said, "Then... what else do you want me to stare at?"

"There is nothing in the world that can be viewed independently. Just like this transaction with the vassal state, it is not limited to tariffs at this time, nor is it limited to the southeast. This is another confrontation between Xu Jie and me. I don't want to copy Xu Jie's house, but I can't let Xu's mansion pass this level so smoothly."

"This...is it going well?"

Luo Xin shook his head and said: "This confrontation with Xu Jie is also a confrontation between our Fuxing Society and the Xu Party, so I want to achieve three points through this matter.

The first point is to cause the Xu family property losses to the greatest extent within the allowable range.Ru Mo, if a prince wants to rise to power, he needs a lot of money to bribe civil servants and generals.Do you think that Xu Jie, as the leader of a party, just talks about it, and all the civil and military officials in the world worship at his feet? "

Xu Shixing thought for a while and said: "Xu Jie is kind and generous, and often helps scholars and officials all over the world."

"How much salary does he have a year?" Luo Xin said flatly, "Where did he get so much money? All his money came from the Xu family. Where did the Xu family get so much money? Before Xu Jie became an official, Xu Jie also only has a few hundred acres of land, but he has been an official for 20 years, and the Xu family has 20 acres of fertile land. These fertile lands are obtained by stealing. So, this time, I will let the Xu family lose a lot. After calculation, there are quite a few businessmen from the feudal kingdom this time. If he wants to complete this transaction, he will lose half of it, which is [-] mu of fertile land. Look, without a lot of financial support, how can Xu Jie bribe civil and military officials? And..."

Luo Xin narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "Even if he sells his family property and completes this transaction, I will let His Majesty see that the Xu family can complete a transaction with the vassal state with the family property of a mansion, which is more expensive than Your Majesty still has money. At that time, what do you think His Majesty will think?"

Xu Shixing took a deep breath, this Luo Xin was...too ruthless.But... this is the first point...

But his heart is excited.

A leader cannot be a bad person, only people like Luo Xin will have a future.

"The second point is to bring Xu Jie's reputation to the lowest point. There are two aspects to this reputation. On the one hand, the Xu family's greedy reputation must be confirmed. On the other hand, those officials who follow Xu Jie must Seeing that Xu Jie can't even protect his own home, do you still expect Xu Jie to protect them?"

"Cruel and merciless!" Xu Shixing admired Luo Xin so much: "What about the third point?"

"The third point is to create a psychological shadow on Xu Jie, so that he hates me to the bone, but doesn't dare to provoke me easily.

Ru Mo, people have subconscious minds.As long as I make Xu Jie subconsciously fear me, he will unknowingly avoid conflict with me.He would think like this, I will not conflict with Luo Xin first, when I defeat Gao Gong and completely control the court, at that time, it will be easy to deal with Luo Xin. "
