Eternal traitor

Chapter 226 Cement Sales
It was another sunny morning, but today King Qin has more merchants. To be precise, there are hundreds of wealthy merchants. Every wealthy merchant is a rich local tyrant, but today they gathered here Just because of one thing··························.

Half a month ago, news spread "inadvertently" from the Lu Xiang family all over the country that King Qin was planning to build a road to the sky. This road was as smooth as a mirror, and it was built with special treasures called "cement. "The most amazing thing about this thing is that it can turn mud into stone. It is rumored that after the road is built, the time for doing business will be greatly shortened.However, news came out from the mouths of the Lu family that tolls will be collected on the road when it is completed.

There was also news that the Lu family was gathering all the noble families, wealthy businessmen and families to prepare money. If they can participate, it will benefit a lot in the future.For example, if you invest one penny today, you can offset two pennies in toll fees in the future.Not only that, hotels, restaurants and other buildings for business travel and rest will be built at intervals.

All of a sudden, this matter spread like crazy, and the whole Qin country and even the whole world knew the whole news. Not only rich businessmen, big households, representatives of the gentry, officials, and even rich foreign businessmen, spies, and foreign envoys came here.

Lu's restaurant is one of the largest restaurants in King Qin, but even so, it looks much smaller in front of the swarming nobles.In order to entertain these people, the Lu family specially rented out a street of houses for these people to use.As for the owners of these houses? ?Who dare not sell Prime Minister Lu's face? ?

"Is this cement??"

"It's really like rumors, is this a stone??"

"Nonsense, the touch must be stone."

"But there are no traces of polishing."

······················
Outside the door of Lu's Tavern, a concrete road of hundreds of meters was displayed in front of everyone in a unique way.Gray texture, stone-like touch, smooth surface like a mirror, there is no trace of the carriage passing by, and there is no vibration at all. The flatness really makes people feel a lot of emotion.

Some people who have already arrived, even if it is not the first time to see this magical road, are still as impressed by the mystery as others.

"Dangdang"

On a street, every 20 meters, there was a servant in red standing on both sides of the street, waving the gong hammer in his hand and hitting the gong desperately. There was a crisp sound. For a while, the merchants seemed to realize that What, quickly walked out of the room and rushed towards Lu's Restaurant.

After a while, in the restaurant of Lu's Restaurant, the street was full of people inside and out, and the black heads actually occupied the whole street. s position.

Where a group of people looked at each other, Lu Buwei in gray brocade clothes came out from the second floor of Lu's Restaurant with a smile.Looking at the dense crowd underground, Lu Buwei didn't feel any discomfort. Compared with the thousands of troops on the battlefield, this small scene was nothing to worry about for him at all.

"Everyone has worked hard to come here after traveling thousands of miles."

Lu Buwei greeted everyone with a smile, raised his right hand to a height of one meter and waved it slightly.

"Lu Xiang is being polite."

"Ms. Lu, we are all here to donate money."

"Lu Xiang is for the country and the people, we should wait."

･･･････
Flattery words overwhelmingly complimented Lu Buwei. These people either saw Lu Buwei's status as the prime minister, or wanted to curry favor with the Lu family, or wanted to earn money. Everyone has their own purpose in coming here, but dare There are really not many people who make trouble.

Lu Buwei raised his hand with a smile, and the voice below stopped instantly. "Everyone is here to save face for me, Mr. Lu. You can ask the servants of the Lu family who are wearing red clothes about the specific matters of the road construction this time. I won't say too much about the truth. Please feel free. "

After Lu Buwei finished speaking, he turned his head and left without worrying about what these people thought.Most of the people standing on the street below are officials and big households in the small areas of Qin State. The real rich and powerful people are all in Lu's restaurant, and they will not be crowded here like these "mud legs" .The Lu family has already told these nobles about the specific matters. Good locations, locations, and prices will all be provided for these people to choose.

Some roads are built directly, and some are built a few years later. Different times, different locations, and different distances have different prices.For example, the distance from Fenglan County to King Qin's Capital will only take more than half a year to complete.After half a year, the restaurants, hotels, and post stations along the way can be ready for construction.The toll for using this section of the official road can also be used earlier.However, it will take several years to build it from the capital of the king of Qin to a more remote place. If it is less, it will be one year later, and if it is more, it will be ten years or more.

Lu Buwei has discussed these matters with Li Hua countless times, from price, to price, to price, and then to price, and discussed countless times before finally finalizing the result.The Lu family made publicity arrangements according to what had been decided, while Li Hua sent a chain store named "Lu's Cement" to collect cash.As for some important figures, Lu Buwei negotiated in person. In short, Li Hua didn't show up, and they were all in the name of the Lu family.

The reason why Lu Buwei cooperates so much is entirely because of his interests.Li Hua gave him a lot of benefits, such as exempting Lu's toll, such as giving away a lot of land deeds along the way, such as appearance fees and hard work fees this time.Also for example... Give him a commission.

No one thinks too much silver, of course Li Hua will not give him cash, everything will be deducted from the silver he wants to give and the land purchase deed.If this part of the money is offset by the purchase of the house deed and there is more, Li Hua will not give the money.But if there are less words, Li Hua will collect the money. The way to collect the money is that Lu Buwei uses a special method to send the money to Li Hua for an anonymous transaction.

Under the deterrence of Lu Buwei, the scene of the turmoil and turmoil that I originally thought did not happen. After the merchants here got the explanation from the servants, I felt that I came to the shop with the "Lu's Cement" brand hanging on the side and began to pay. More than a dozen There was a long queue at the shop for a while, boxes of silver and gold were delivered over, and the other people who saw them were extremely jealous.
