farmer's daughter

Chapter 676
Chapter 670 Bad luck or retribution

The head of the Xu family in the north of the same city is also angry at this time!

Patriarch Xu is not a good stubble in the first place!Although the Lu and Xu families have cooperated for several generations, they were not just two families at the beginning.But in order to stand out among many people and monopolize the industry, the heads of the two families made a death contract with each other.Only then did the two cooperate.Then it worked out immediately.Sure enough, they became the last laughers among their peers.

Being able to monopolize this industry in the entire dynasty can make the court have no choice but to take them. They have stepped on so many talents all the way to this high position.Then sit back and reap the rewards!
However, one biscuit may be enough for one person, but not too full for two people.Therefore, when the Xu family was young, he had an idea that he wanted the Xu family to win this industry alone!It was also because of this idea that he, who was not the eldest son, was chosen by his father to inherit the family business among many brothers.

People with their own original intentions naturally want to follow their own ideas every step of the way.From this point of view, it has been 20 years since I took over the family business, but my ideal has not yet been realized.

Although secretly made a lot of little tricks.But there are all kinds of predecessors' constraints, and some conventions are there, and you can't change it all at once.What's more, the Lu family is not a soft persimmon.Although Lu Zhanhong is an impatient person.But it's just that he seems impatient in his words, and he is not the kind of impatient person when making decisions, he is still a very stable person.

Therefore, if the Xu family wants to develop on their own, there is only one way, and that is to come from Yin.It's just these 20 years.Xu Ceyan didn't find a chance to play tricks.We can only cultivate some of our own people secretly.

However, Xu Ceyan has a natural flaw, that is, he is too suspicious.He uses one person and will use another person to supervise this person.Maybe there will be a third level of supervision.What does this make the person who is going to perform the supervision think?Could there be someone behind me watching?
Therefore, there are really not many people who can treat him sincerely.If nothing else, just talk about his anger now.

Recently, due to such and such small conflicts with the Lu family, there has been an escalation.The Xu family also did some punitive or warning things to the Lu family, but it seemed that the Lu family was not afraid.Although there was no retaliation, there was no such thing as giving in or admitting defeat.This made Xu Patriarch Xu Ceyan very annoyed!

Xu Ceyan decided to give the Lu family a heavier punishment, and also fulfilled his childhood dream by the way, so he had to use a ruthless trick.Therefore, when the ship of salt came back and capsized at sea because it hit a rock, the loss was not small.

The Xu family immediately stated that this boatload of salt was not what they wanted, and they had a lot of salt on their side, so they were in a hurry to ask for salt.It's all because the Lu family won the business of a barracks, so they want to transport a batch of salt back, but because of the rules of the ancestors, all the salt ships that come back are owned by half of the family.so.The Xu family said that they didn't want this ship in the first place, and they didn't recognize the loss this time.

This is completely tearing up the face, and making the contract of the ancestors useless.The Lu family is going to suffer a lot this time.Then, the Lu family will definitely make some moves next, and the Xu family is preparing to take the move.If he was going to be logical, he separated from the Lu family, and then took over the Lu family's jurisdiction with his own contacts and skills.

The idea is very smooth, but it is difficult to do it.Originally, the letter of rejection was sent to Lu's house the day before yesterday, but now I don't have much salt in my storeroom, and according to the plan, I will send it to my shops in various places.But on the way to send them out, they encountered robbers and forcibly detained two cars.I have to make up two cars according to the quantity, and I have to buy road money for the robbers.

This gang of robbers is a recent addition.I don't know where it came from, I heard that the Lu family also suffered a loss.If you want to settle accounts or negotiate with them afterwards, you still can't find anyone.Last time, Patriarch Lu was still discussing with him whether he should report to the officials and use the local army to solve this matter.

But because the loss was not big at the time, I thought about reporting to the official, and the official had to eat a piece of it.It's better to let those guards follow up more when sending salt next time.

This time, there were quite a few guards who went out with the salt team, and basically half of the Xu family's guards went out.But I didn't expect that the robbers are masters, and there is nothing you can do.People don't hurt people.Just salt and money.

The salt that was required to be delivered was also due, and there was no way to make up for it, and I had to worry that my next home would be robbed by the Lu family.Although the two parties have agreed on where to do business, isn't this a self-inflicted tear?
Patriarch Xu is so angry that he has no choice but to bear the loss of this person himself, and he has to pay to rescue those useless guards.Now the salt is also lost.The salt at home also needs replenishment.Then you have to send the salt back.The last time I dared to tell Patriarch Lu that I would not bear that load of salt.If you want salt this time, you have to find someone to bring it back.Because the salt produced by the salt field by the sea here is not much, and it is not very good.

The head of the Xu family thought that it would be no problem for the people he had trained for so many years to do the salt transportation business.But unexpectedly, as soon as the ship went out to sea, it encountered pirates.Not to mention the money, but also killed two people.The rest of the people naturally dare not go again.

With a lot of money, Master Xu met another group of beggars at sea.With a lot of money, let those people transport salt for themselves.The people who produce salt over there are not from the Lu family and the Xu family. The people over there just promised to only do their business, so they need a token to get the salt.

The head of the Xu family asked his brother to take the token to get the salt.This time it was tough.Word came that the salt had been obtained.It's just that the boat was sailed to another island, and only a small boat was sent back to ask the owner of the Xu family to buy this batch of salt. If he didn't buy it, his brother was killed.The token was taken away.

Patriarch Xu was really shocked this time!After being angry, he questioned the leader of the guy, why didn't he keep his promise?It was agreed to pay a high price for shipping, but now there is no need for shipping, people only redeem salt and money!
They also wrote back:
"What is credit? Can Patriarch Xu recognize these two words?"

But he slapped Patriarch Xu straight in the face.Although there is a lot of money, the Xu family really doesn't have many people. I don't know why, the Xu family has a lot of children, and every generation has a lot of children, but the support rate is not high, and they are more or less sick.Therefore, this brother was saved and returned.

After the news came back.The brothers and daughters-in-law brought their children to the house to cry, and the old lady was so annoyed by crying that she went straight to Patriarch Xu and scolded her.

Then a rumor quietly started in the mansion, saying that the head of the Xu family had broken his promise, and that's why he got retribution.

This is the reason why the head of the Xu family was furious, because, according to reports from his people or hidden people, the Lu family really had nothing to do with him meeting bandits and sea bandits.So is he really bad luck or just retribution?
