farmer's daughter

Chapter 693
Chapter 690 Where to Put Yellow Goods

Xue Jian was only a little angry for a while, but after thinking about it, it was all right. Who told me to stand there wearing a coarse cloth at that time.unwise!It was as if he, the prince, was going to greet them.I even teased a little guy.

Master Lu took his two sons, and followed Wu Qiming to the study with some anxiety.Xue Jian no longer had a gloomy face, and nodded to signal them to sit down.Fu Jinghao, on the other hand, made a slight resignation, and sat aside with a cold snort.

How dare Patriarch Lu dare to sit down? Now he is considered as Prince Rui's servant.Lian Hou's words were still in his ears before he left.If it wasn't for Prince Rui taking the first step to protect his family by taking the initiative in front of the emperor, then his family would really be doomed.And how important it is for Prince Rui to take this step, I understand in my heart, if one is not good, the emperor will be angry with Prince Rui, then Prince Rui will not be able to please him.Maybe he would think that Prince Rui was in collusion with him.

Therefore, Patriarch Lu understood how much Prince Rui had helped him bear.When I got home, I also told my mother, wife and son the original words. Everyone knew that I could survive.Thanks to Prince Rui!
Patriarch Lu didn't sit down, but stood in the middle of the room and apologized again.Xue Jian waved his hand and said:
"Patriarch Lu doesn't need to talk about this, it's just a child. I want to hear from you, what's going on with your family now?"

Patriarch Lu hurriedly replied:

"The one who came to pick us up was from Lianhou. Lianhou also told me that my family was saved this time because of the prince's guarantee. Please rest assured, my Lu family will be the prince's follower from now on. The son named Lu The descendants and grandchildren will follow the prince and the prince's descendants. If you break the oath, the original Lu family will be wiped out! Die a bad death!"

Xue Jian hurriedly said:

"Master Lu is serious! I am very happy to be able to save you. In this world, there are some things that cannot be solved by killing one or two lives. If useful people stay, they can still make some contributions to the dynasty. In this dynasty, you should do something for the dynasty."

The head of the Lu family bowed and replied:
"Yes!"

Xuejian said again:

"How about the Xu family?"

Patriarch Lu thought about it and said:
"Returning to the prince, it's not that I defamed Patriarch Xu behind his back. Patriarch Xu used his thoughts in the wrong place. He wanted to monopolize the salt industry, but that was impossible. Under this dynasty, apart from the royal family dominating the industry independently, It is impossible for others to monopolize. Back then we.”

Having said that, Patriarch Lu looked up at Xue Jian, then lowered his head and said:

"At the beginning, our Lu family and the Xu family occupied the salt industry by force. I don't know what it was like for the Xu family, but for my Lu family, since the previous generation, it has been a difficult situation. At that time, people who had opinions on us There are a lot of them, but they dare not move us because they are afraid of breaking the chain of the salt industry. And our Lu family doesn’t dare to move. Mie, for the lives of the whole family. Sometimes, we have to hold on. From my father's generation, we wanted to find someone like the prince to be our backer, so, We have been active in the capital, but the Patriarch dare not go to the capital."

"Father passed away with regret. I took over the Lu family and did not expand the power of the Lu family a little bit. On the contrary, I was slowly reducing the power of the Lu family. Maybe the head of the Xu family found that we were withdrawing from some territories and thought that we No way. That’s why he wants to monopolize this kind of thing, so he’s been a little crazy lately, and that’s why he has some problems behind it.”

Xue Jian nodded, and she understood the meaning of the Lu family master as soon as she heard it. She just wanted to show that her Lu family wanted to quit a long time ago.The second point is to show that I really have no intention of going against the dynasty.

The head of the Lu family even made it clear:

"Under the supervision of Lianhou, eight-tenths of the gold and silver items preserved by generations of our Lu family were transported to the court that day. Originally, part of it was given to Lianhou. Lianhou said, let I can just give it to the prince. So, I brought all the others. Now they are all in the carriage outside, so it is better to count those things first."

Xuejian let out a cry and stood up.Is this pulling the gold directly?
Before Xue Jian, she received a message from the senior brother, saying that the head of the Lu family would send her some money, and told her not to be polite, just accept it.But I didn't expect the head of the Lu family to receive the gold directly.Isn't this too bold?

The head of the Lu family nodded and said:
"Yes, it's in the carriage outside. I thought about depositing money in the bank on the way, but I was also a little worried about going into the bank in an unfamiliar place. Fortunately, someone from Lord Marquis escorted him all the way to Qingyang. After Qingyang, a group of people secretly escorted us here, so we can feel at ease along the way."

Xuejian and Fu Jinghao glanced at each other. When I first built this leisurely villa, I didn't expect that I would develop into what I am now, so I didn't prepare any basement.Where should these things be placed now?

After thinking for a while, Xuejian said to Fu Jinghao:
"Brother Jing Hao, I think we should put him in another courtyard first? Anyway, the third senior brother lives there for a long time."

Fu Jinghao thought for a while, shook his head and said:
"Xue'er, there is another place where my people are."

After thinking about it, Xue Jian nodded and said:
"Okay, you and Mr. Lu go to count these things, and then your people will transport these things away. You follow and make arrangements. Brother Chengqiang is over there, you can arrange for him. By the way, don't take them all with you." Let's go. Leave half of it to the Lu family."

The head of the Lu family shook his head and said:

"Back to the prince, there is no need to leave the yellow goods to us. We don't even have a home now, how can we take it? The prince will accept it. Please give me a piece of land. We can build a manor and live there."

Fu Jinghao went out with Mr. Lu, this is a big deal, people here are so noisy!

Xue Jian thought about it and said:

"Okay! Your family will live in this manor first, Manager Wu."

Wu Qiming was waiting outside the door. When he heard Xuejian calling for someone, he hurried in. Xuejian said:
"Clean up the two yards in the village, and let their family live there for a while. In their yard, they can make arrangements by themselves. If you want anything, your people can just ask Mr. Wu."

Having said that, he said to the head of the Lu family:
"You take a rest first. I have something to look for you later. It's best to settle the house down. The servant can ask Mr. Wu to arrange a place to live. Let's squeeze for a while and fix the house later. Then move out."

Patriarch Lu nodded his thanks.

Wu Qiming also went down to arrange things, but Xuejian sat down and thought about it, how would he spend this sum of money?It is said that it will be spent at the edge of the knife, and now the development of the salt industry is the edge of the knife.However, regarding the issue of salt, as Patriarch Lu said, apart from the control of the court, individuals cannot control it.So, you have to think about it too.
