Naturally, Mr. Luo sincerely wants to do business with the Zhao family. After all, the Zhao family relies on the Prime Minister. If he has the Prime Minister as his backer, his position in Licheng will be more stable. However, he does not know that the Prime Minister
I hate the Zhao family. Most of the Zhao family's business is done by themselves.
Second Master Luo knew that the young master of the Zhao family did not understand business, so he deliberately mentioned that he wanted to cooperate. No matter how stubborn the old man was, Uncle Xian would have to bow to him if the eldest young master nodded.
The young master of the Zhao family doesn't know the intention of the second master Luo, so he will naturally not agree. Even if he thinks this person is worthy of cooperation, he will leave it to Uncle Xian to make the decision. Licheng is not the capital, and only Uncle Xian can make the decision on matters here. What's more,
My father had always left the business in Licheng to Uncle Xian, and he rarely interfered.
"The young master of the Zhao family is really humble. Business is very simple. How can you know nothing about it? You just like to play. If you work hard at business, you will be a hundred times better than me, Luo Er." Luo Erye said.
"Second Master Luo was joking. I'm really lazy. I followed Uncle Xian for a while, and finally made Uncle Xian leave the capital in anger. My father knew that I had no talent and refused to be down-to-earth, so he was naturally disappointed in me.
This time, they drove me out of the capital just to keep out of sight," said the young master of the Zhao family.
"But Boss Liu told me that if it hadn't been for the appearance of the young master that day, those tenants would not have signed the lease." Mr. Luo said.
"What happened that day was actually a coincidence. I had just finished talking to the young master of the Bai family the day before, and those merchants came to the door. If it had been another day, I might not have been able to remember this incident." The young master of the Zhao family said.
"Master Zhao doesn't even know what Luo Er wants to talk to you, so you refused." Luo Er said.
"The second master may not know that I am only interested in women, and they must be beautiful women. When I talk about doing business, my head starts to hurt." The young master of the Zhao family said.
"If the young master agrees to discuss business with the Luo family, Luo Er can get you any kind of woman you want." Luo Erye said.
"Actually, Mr. Luo should also know that I am not good at doing business. Mr. Luo is willing to cooperate with me, so he thinks highly of me. However, if the business is handed over to me, I am afraid that the wine shop will be closed down soon." Zhao
The young master asked in embarrassment.
"If the young master is unwilling to take care of it, my people will naturally be willing to do it for you. As long as the young master is willing to cooperate, the rest of the matter can be easily discussed." Second Master Luo said with a smile.
"The second master is really joking. I still need to discuss this matter with Uncle Xian. I can't make the decision by myself." The young master of the Zhao family said.
"You are the eldest son of the Zhao family, and the Zhao family will be managed by you in the future. How can you trust a manager to make the decision? I heard that the old man of the Zhao family has handed over all the business in Licheng to Uncle Xian?
"Second Master Luo asked.
"That's right, my father didn't want to bother, so he handed over all the business here to Uncle Xian. Uncle Xian has been following my father since he was a child, what's the worry?" asked the young master of the Zhao family.
"Is this your first time in Licheng, young master?" Second Master Luo asked.
"Yes, although Licheng is not too far from the capital, I am not lazy and I don't want to walk around. I have spent almost all of these years in the capital," said the young master of the Zhao family.
"You must know that the Zhao family's business in Licheng is all in the hands of Uncle Xian. In fact, it's hard for me, an outsider, to say anything. However, Uncle Xian is not named Zhao. Mr. Zhao, I don't think I need to say anything more next, right?
" Mr. Luo said.
"Second Master, do you mean that Uncle Xian might enrich himself?" the young master of the Zhao family asked.
"How do I know about the Zhao family's business? I'm just reminding you that the Zhao family's business must still be in your own hands. Otherwise, one day, Licheng's business will become his Zhou family's." Luo
The second master said with a smile.
"What the second master said is true, but, oh, why didn't I meet the second master earlier? You know I know nothing about business. Even if I want to take care of the business now, I don't have the ability." The young master of the Zhao family patted his thigh.
said.
After Mr. Luo said so much, the young master of the Zhao family has long understood that his purpose is to instigate the relationship between the Zhao family and Uncle Xian, so that he can cooperate with the Zhao family in business.
Uncle Xian did not cooperate with Mr. Luo. Mr. Luo had a grudge, so he did this. Although Mr. Luo bribed the government, he was different from the Zhao family. Because, Prime Minister, the Zhao family's business in the capital is
Smooth sailing. Although my uncle has never taken care of the Zhao family deliberately, for the sake of my uncle, people will give the Zhao family three points of thin noodles.
I think it was for this reason that Mr. Luo decided to cooperate with him.
"Mr. Zhao, what are you anxious about? Don't you still have me? From now on, Luo will be your friend. Listen to my brother's advice and take the business back from Uncle Xian. My brother will help you with advice."
The second master said with a smile.
"I remember what the second master said, but I don't know what kind of business the second master plans to do with me?" Mr. Zhao said.
"Of course it is a profitable business, but it requires waterways. I know that the Zhao family has a boat business, so I want to cooperate with you. Actually, I just need my brother to come out with a boat. Do you think there is any problem with the 50-50 split?"
Mr. Luo said.
"Second Master, can you let me think about it?" Young Master Zhao said.
When the young master of the Zhao family heard that Mr. Luo needed a boat, he thought of buying and selling people. It seemed that Mr. Luo was going to take the old road again, but it was not cost-effective for their people to go by water, because those people knew what Mr. Luo was doing.
, naturally he would give Mr. Luo a sum of money, but in the end it would be in the hands of Mr. Luo, with not much left at all.
Only then did he understand why Uncle Xian rejected Mr. Luo's cooperation. It turned out that Mr. Luo wanted to drag Uncle Xian into illegal activities, so Uncle Xian naturally couldn't do this business with him.
Mr. Luo thought that he didn't know what kind of business he was doing, and since he didn't know how to handle the business and was too lazy to manage it, he could just take the opportunity to complete the business on the ship alone.
Seeing that Mr. Zhao was willing to consider it, Mr. Luo smiled and said, "Okay, we won't talk about business today. Let's drink."
The young master of the Zhao family glanced at the girl beside him, and the girl poured him a cup of tea. The young master of the Zhao family picked up the wine glass and said to the second master Luo: "Second master, I will do it first as a token of respect."
"Mr. Zhao, if you like any girls, I will help you redeem their lives," said Mr. Luo.
"That's not necessary. I think Mr. Luo also knows that there may be more ladies in my house than in the entire Yixiang Pavilion. In addition, I also brought four ladies this time. When I came to Yixiang Pavilion, actually
Just to keep things fresh, I told my second master just now that Yixiang Pavilion is different from the brothels I have been to. I would be satisfied if I came here to listen to music and watch the girls dance. My father made a special trip to Xian a few days ago
Uncle Xian wrote a letter and asked him to look at me carefully. I haven’t come out to play for several days. Although I live in another courtyard now, there are people watching me. If I go back too late, Uncle Xian will ask me again.
I told my father." The young master of the Zhao family said with a sad face.
"Mr. Zhao, how can a person who is doing important things shrink back when he hears his father?" Mr. Luo said with a smile.
"Make the second master laugh." The young master of the Zhao family said with a smile.
After the two chatted for a while, the young master of the Zhao family was about to pay and leave. The second master Luo stopped the young master of the Zhao family and said: "You should call me second master, how can I let you pay the bill? Let's drink again when we have a chance. When the time comes,
Just invite me."
When the young master of the Zhao family saw this, he did not stop him.
Finally, Mr. Luo asked someone to settle the bill and then left Yixiang Pavilion.
The two came to the gate, and Second Master Luo said, "I don't know if Mr. Zhao is enjoying himself, why not come and sit at my place? What kind of woman do you like? Second Master Luo can help you arrange it." Second Master Luo said.
"It's getting late, I have to go back to the other courtyard. When there is a chance, we two brothers can get together in Yixiang Pavilion." said the young master of the Zhao family.
"Okay." Mr. Luo said.
The young master of the Zhao family got on the carriage and walked towards the other courtyard. Seeing the carriage leaving, Mr. Luo said to his men: "Follow him and see if he has returned to the other courtyard."
"Yes." The servant responded and went to chase the carriage.
Mr. Luo met with the young master of the Zhao family today. He not only wanted to do business on the Zhao family's ship, but also wanted to do serious business with the Zhao family. A few years ago, he had become close to Uncle Xian and wanted to secretly do business with the Zhao family.
Cooperate with Uncle Xian, but unfortunately Uncle Xian did not agree. Although Uncle Xian did not mention this matter, he would not collude with Mr. Luo at all.
He just didn't expect that Mr. Luo would actually have his mind set on him.
The young master of the Zhao family was just thinking when he heard Da Yi whisper: "Young master, Mr. Luo's people are following the carriage."
"I didn't expect Second Master Luo to have such an idea. No wonder he followed me to Yixiang Pavilion." said the young master of the Zhao family.
"Second Master Luo thinks that the young master is not interested in business and that his cooperation with you is just to plot the Zhao family's business?" he asked carelessly.
"To be honest, Mr. Luo is not interested in the Zhao family's business at the moment, and he may not be interested in the Zhao family's business in the future," said the young master of the Zhao family.
"But, since I'm not interested, why do I have to cooperate with you? Even if you don't take care of it personally, he still promised to split the account 50-50. Although it sounds like you are taking advantage, I don't feel at ease at all after hearing this."
said.
"He wanted to use shipping to do illegal business, so he cooperated with me. You also know that he once mentioned this matter to Uncle Xian, but Uncle Xian didn't agree at all. Have you ever thought about why Uncle Xian didn't
Are you willing to cooperate with him?" said the young master of the Zhao family.
"Uncle Xian likes to be on the safe side in business, so naturally he doesn't want to cooperate with the Luo family. The second master of the Luo family is ruthless, so uncle Xian will naturally be more careful." He said carelessly.
"I guess Uncle Xian must know that Mr. Luo wants to use the Zhao family's line to do illegal activities, so he rejected him. There are many people in the business world, and Uncle Xian naturally knows it. I believe that the Luo family
If you really wanted to do serious business at the beginning, Uncle Xian would not refuse." said the young master of the Zhao family.
"Second Master Luo has made a lot of money these years, why are you still so greedy?" he said carelessly.
"You should ask him how much money he sent to the government." said the young master of the Zhao family.
"The officials in Licheng have such a big appetite?" Da Yi asked in surprise.
"Of course it's not just the government in Licheng. There must be someone in the capital helping him. Otherwise, why would he hide every time when people come to inspect?" said the young master of the Zhao family.
"Could it be that he bribed the officials who came to inspect?" he said after thinking for a while.
