Chapter 628 Lu Jiawen has changed
Just as Su Shi was trying his best to fool the Goryeo people on Danluo Island, Liu Kui, the chief envoy of the Song Dynasty delegation who went to Goryeo to He Zhengdan, had been back to Haizhou for several days.
Liu Kui, who returned to Haizhou, did not immediately lead the return mission to Kaifeng Prefecture. Instead, he moved into his father-in-law Lu Jiawen's newly purchased Siyuan Villa for rest on the excuse of hard work at sea.
Siyuan was originally Ji Yi's property. Ji Yi owned a large amount of real estate in Haizhou. In the past few months, because the news that the court would open JD.com in Haizhou, Ji Yi made a lot of money... But this time he did nothing, but sold one of the gardens to Lu Jiawen. Lu Jiawen changed it to "Siyuan" as his place to live in Haizhou for a long time.
Lu Jiawen's carbohydrate activities are getting better and better now. Not only does it transport carbohydrate, but it also bought a carbohydrate mine in Xuzhou and became a real "coal boss"!
The "coal boss" naturally wants to buy a house! In addition to buying Siyuan from Ji Yi, he also purchased land on both sides of the Yunyan River. He knew very well that JD.com was very likely to get approval!
Because Wu Haogu, Pan Xiao'an, Gao Qiu, Xiang Zonghui, Xiang Zongliang, Wang Shi, Mi Fu and other figures who were very good at using their hands and eyes in Kaifeng Prefecture also made a lot of money in Haizhou during this period.
JD.com is sure to win.
"Highway, why not invest some money in Haizhou too...you can definitely make a big profit."
When Liu Kui heard the father-in-law Lu Jia, who hated the most in his life, said such words, his eyes widened and he was shocked.
How did my father-in-law become a businessman?
"Yue, father-in-law, the son-in-law is not a businessman and can't do business."
Lu Jia asked and waved his hand: "Hi, I'm not a businessman either."
You are not? Liu Kui thought to himself, who opened the largest Lu Ji Carbonifera store in Haizhou?
Lu Jia asked, "And this business doesn't need to be able to do it!"
A business that doesn't need to be known? Liu Kui said in his heart: There is such a business in the world? If there is one, who will become a corrupt official?
"Just buy it!" Lu Jiawen said with great momentum, "If you buy one piece of land near Qushan County, you can buy one piece! If you buy one piece of houses in Qushan County, you can buy one piece of houses... When JD.com opens next year, you will be sold twice as soon as JD.com opens next year."
"Yue, father-in-law, can it really double?" Liu Kui asked with some uncertainty.
"Why can't it?" Lu Jia asked, "You know how much the thirty-three shareholders of Jiehe Market have made on the land? At that time, they only invested 10,000 yuan to get a whole yard of land. Even if they sold half of it at a cheap price, the rest would be worth hundreds of thousands!"
Hundreds of thousands!
Lu Jia asked who was gritting his teeth! Why didn’t he invest in Jiehe Market? Who doesn’t have ten thousand coins?
"How many hundreds of thousands?" Liu Kui swallowed, "There are so many?"
"Of course there is!" Lu Jia asked, "Now the number of households in Jiehe Market has exceeded 20,000, and the population exceeds 100,000. And more than a dozen wealthy businesses have emerged, including winemaking, wood, livestock, medicinal materials, grain transportation, engraving, papermaking, shipbuilding, brickmaking, mud and ash..."
Of course, Wuhaogu’s vision of land-enclosing and building a commercial market is good. I chose an excellent location to open a commercial market. The place is almost Tianjin. How can the location be bad? So Jiehe Commercial City has only been open for four years and is now quite prosperous. A large number of "pillar" industries have also emerged!
In addition to the top ten industries listed by Lu Jiawen, there is also the financial industry headed by Jiehe Daxiangguo Temple Jieku, the real estate industry where houses are sold and related construction industry, the military industry that has just begun to rise, the catering retail industry that is booming, gold, silver and lacquerware, slave trade in human trafficking, and the understated brothel tiles, etc.
In short, the current Jiehe Commercial Market is changing every year and has changed a lot in three years. It is really the fastest time to develop! The shares of Jiehe Chamber of Commerce have become an jealous treasure pot. The Chamber of Commerce has paid dividends to shareholders since last year's opening. The dividend per share (a total of 33 shares) exceeds 10,000 yuan, which is equivalent to recovering all investments at once.
However, those shareholders who purchased the Chamber of Commerce shares don’t care about dividends now. Because none of them can get the land of a bank! It was not valuable at the beginning, but now it has appreciated unreasonably and is still bullish...
How can such a wealth effect not make people feel moved?
So when Zeng Bu and Jian Xuchen jointly submitted a petition to open JD.com, the land prices around Qushan County began to soar. The wealthy and powerful businessmen who had missed Jiehe Commercial City before are now targeting JD.com, which has not yet been released.
"Wu Haogu can't be proud for too long!" Liu Kui gritted his teeth, "Jiehe Market is almost over!"
"What's wrong?" Lu Jia asked, looking at Liu Kui, as if he was a little surprised, "Highway, what are you talking about?"
"Brother-in-law," Liu Kui lowered his voice, "You probably don't know yet? Wu Haogu, the guy in Jiehe Commercial Market, privately gathers elite soldiers! He wants to rebel!"
"Nonsense!" Lu Jia asked, "Which family did he rebel? He has so much money, and the government treats him like a brother."
"Really!" Liu Kui said, "This time he transferred 100 elite soldiers from Jiehe Market to escort Su Shi to Japan... Those 100 people were all private soldiers, and the elite soldiers were extremely elite!"
"How can 100 people, 100 people rebel?" Lu Jia asked, still shook his head, "He is now a general, so it is not an exaggeration to raise 100 private soldiers. Moreover, his Jiehe Market is worth at least tens of millions of dollars now. Can it be possible not to raise some soldiers to protect him?"
"But all those 100 people have iron armor!"
Raising private soldiers was not a serious crime in the Song Dynasty. Wang Anshi himself committed the Baojia Law, and many wealthy families took advantage of loopholes to raise Baojia into their own thugs.
However, Baojia cannot hide paper armor with more than five collars, let alone hundreds of collars of iron armor! If you want to seriously discuss, Wu Haogu's head can be moved.
Lu Jiawen frowned and asked, "Have you seen it with your own eyes?"
"See!" Liu Kui said.
"Where are those private soldiers in armor?"
"It's probably in Danluo Country."
Lu Jia asked and laughed: "Isn't that just not there? You are saying it without any reason! The Danluo Kingdom is not the land of the Song Dynasty, so we can't control it. It is impossible to send someone to the Danluo Kingdom to investigate."
This...is not right!
Liu Kui suddenly felt something was wrong. What's wrong with his father-in-law? Why are you talking for Wu Haogu? Didn't Wu Haogu have a grudge against him for killing his son? There is evidence of Wu Haogu's rebellion. Although Wu Haogu is good to the official family, it may not necessarily take his life, but it will eventually make him fall into trouble, right?
But why does my father-in-law seem to be unhappy? What happened?
"Father-in-law..." Liu Kui thought about it for a moment, "A disciple of the son-in-law in the Imperial College now serves as a censor. If you hear that, you might as well let him write a seal..."
"No! No!"
No? Liu Kui blinked hard. Is this person in front of him Lu Jia or Lu Hao asked?
After confirming that he did not admit his mistake, Liu Kui asked: "Father-in-law, are you...what are you?"
"Highway," Lu Jiawen shook his head and said, "Why don't you understand? Jiehe Commercial City is not Wu Haogu alone. Twenty-five of the thirty-three shareholders are from the Song Dynasty. In addition to Wu Haogu and his few of his confidants, they are all relatives and nobles of Kaifeng Prefecture! Not to mention the master behind those who have made a fortune in Jiehe Commercial City. If you sue him for a serious crime of treason, then Jiehe Commercial City can get rid of it? If he wants to raise private soldiers, he will be in Jiehe Commercial City? That is his territory. Will the Commercial City still open? Then those people will not regard you as an enemy?
And... Now is the critical moment for the opening of JD.com and JD.com Shipping! If there is a problem with Jiehe Shipping and Jiehe Shipping, will there still be JD.com and JD.com Shipping?”
So that's it! Liu Kui already understood why it was a mess. It turned out that his father-in-law is now all his wealth is on the Jingdong Market and Jingdong Market. Maybe he borrowed usury. If he ended up in the end, he couldn't make it, and the old man would have gone bankrupt and ran away to hide from debts?
What is it to die of a son? Lu Jia asked many sons! It is a big deal to be blocked from wealth. If birth is gone, what will happen to so many sons and grandchildren in the future?
Alas! Liu Kui sighed in his heart! Money is indeed the source of all evil. Even his father-in-law, Taishan, who has always despised businessmen the most, has now been corrupted by money to become a businessman... but he doesn't know yet!
"Brother-in-law," Liu Kui was not in a mood to fight with the thief Wu Haogu again. He himself wanted to make a small contribution. "The son-in-law is an honest official and has no wealth of money. He only has 30,000 yuan in private savings, and has a warehouse in Daxiangguo Temple. When the son-in-law returns to Kaifeng Prefecture, he will send the money to Haizhou. How about asking his father-in-law to help buy land?"
"Okay," Lu Jia asked, nodded, "We will naturally have to settle the holiday with Wu Haogu, but it's not now... Remember, stop talking to others about Wu Haogu's privately accumulating elite soldiers. Otherwise, Wu Haogu will not die, and your future may be over."
"I remember the son-in-law." Liu Kui said in his heart: Father-in-law, you are almost becoming the second-in-law of Wu Haogu! What a big deal to settle down!
"Don't think I'll let that guy go!" Lu Jiawen sighed in a deep tone, "That guy's life is not easy!"
"It's not easy?"
Lu Jiawen sneered and said, "One of the Jinshi lists, one of the Imperial College reforms... This is an enemy of the scholars in the world! Now Wuhaogu and Jiehe Commercial Market have become targets. Although they cannot be criticized for a while, they will never have a good life. When Jingdong Commercial Market is built, the government may not need him!"
