Except for Wei Yingluo, all of them are men. They looked at each other and their expressions became a little ambiguous.

Zhulu Hou smashed Yin Hongzhi's Chunfeng Tower. Perhaps because he understood the benefits of Chunfeng Tower during the smashing process, he wanted to open a room. At the age of being very angry, this kind of thing is normal.

But why did he use the shares in his hands to replace them?

Although Pingkangfang's industry is valuable, no matter how valuable it is, it has a limit. After all, it is a place to prostitution. Although everyone needs it, everyone is not ashamed of it and has a good reputation. The most popular brothel in Pingkangfang, no matter how meat or vegetables, will make more than 50,000 jin a year. The price Li Mu took out is only 20% of the horse farm, which is no less than this in a year.

Not to mention 10% of Datang Mining and 20% of Datang Salt Industry's shares, mines and salt have been profitable industries since ancient times. Li Mu's shares may not have a net profit of 200,000 to 300,000 yuan a year. Compared with operating brothels, it is not only more worry-free, but also much less risky.

Brothels rely on courtesans and girls. This group of girls is good. Brothels can be prosperous for two or three years, but no matter how beautiful the brothels are, there will always be people who are old and deteriorating. As the top players are at a low level, the income of brothels will also plummet. Compared with the gold rice bowls of salt and mines, it is simply not worth mentioning.

A little smart person would not do such stupid things. But Li Mu did it, which made everyone wonder. Li Mu, the Marquis of Zhulu, was in charge of the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, was obviously not a fool. Anyone who wanted to treat him as a fool would be a real fool. He must have a deep meaning in doing this, but everyone did not know what the deep meaning was and dared not ask.

However, from their perspective, this kind of replacement is cost-effective no matter how you look at it. You can’t find any good things that you can’t even find when you use brothels to exchange for salt, mine shares, or lanterns. As for the first condition that Li Mu mentioned, using money to acquire it, it was ignored by everyone.

After spending money, how can it be compared with a golden rice bowl? If anyone wants money, he will be the number one fool with Tianzi!

Someone stood up and said, "Mr. Marquis, the Su family in Yangzhou has an industry in Pingkangfang, called Qingyin Pavilion, which is a 'Su' Pavilion. The girls in the museum are particularly good at pipa and are well-known in Chang'an. Just next to Chunfeng Tower, the annual income is no less than 40,000 yuan. If the Marquis is interested, he is willing to replace the Marquis's half-asset of the Datang Mining Company, the land deeds of Qingyin Pavilion and the girls' sales deeds will be given to the Marquis."

Li Mu nodded, and before he could speak, a second person stood up and said, "You traitor, dare to deceive the Marquis! Your Qingyin Pavilion can earn 40,000 yuan a year, but if you want to replace half-component shares of Datang Mining, you will be blinded!" After criticizing the shopkeeper of the Su family, the man said, "Report to the Marquis, I am the manager of the Liu family in Shuzhou in Chang'an. The Liu family has an industry in Pingkangfang, called Meixianlou. Last year's courtesan was in Meixianlou. I dare not say that it would be far away. Within three years, a pure profit of 50,000 yuan a year. I am willing to replace half-component shares of Datang Salt Industry in the Marquis' hands."

Shuzhou lacks salt. If the manager of the Liu family could replace half of the shares of Datang Salt Industry, the Liu family would inevitably rise in Shuzhou, so he was so excited.

After he finished speaking, the shopkeeper of the Su family immediately retorted and sneered: "You are the traitor! Didn't you hear the Marquis say it? You must be close to Chunfeng Tower. Your beautiful fairy building is one hundred and eighty feet away from Chunfeng Tower. You dare to exchange it for half a share of Datang Salt Industry. You are delusional, but you still hide it and try to deceive the Marquis. How can you get the heart!"

The Liu family's little thought was pierced, and she was ashamed and annoyed, and worried that Li Mu would blame him. She immediately turned red and grabbed the Su family's shopkeeper's hair, punched him in the face, and said, "I just didn't have time to say that you have to arrange me, a treacherous villain, how can I tolerate you!"

"How dare you hit someone? I'll fight you!"

The two of them fought, Li Mu frowned and slapped the table suddenly: "Rareless! This is the Ministry of Works, how can it be a place for fighting? People come, take it out and fight ten whips each one to give them a memory!"

Two strong men flocked outside the gate, both of whom were trained under Li Chongyi. Since there were only 300 places and the remaining 200 people were sent, Li Mu did not want to waste it, so he planned to stay in the Ministry of Works. Let them take turns to stand guard, which is also familiar.

The two were taken out and screams came in.

Li Mu's face was as deep as water, and said, "I have said it countless times. When doing business, you must have rules. Bidding can be done according to the rules. If you fight or fight in front of me, do you take this Marquis seriously? If you do this in the conference room in the future, don't blame me for being ruthless. You must leave an ear so that you can't hear the rules of this Marquis!"

Everyone was so sad that they thought of Yin Hongzhi's incident in the past few days, and they were worried. Has Zhulu Hou recently added a new hobby? It turned out that he was so scattering, but now he was so easy to cut his ears. It was so scary!

"You have to be cautious about this matter. I know you are all coveting shares, but I am not easy to fool. You can't say that your property is worth as much as you want. This marquis wants to estimate the price, and this marquis is worth as much as you want. If you want to change it, change it, and if you don't change it, you won't be embarrassed. But if you have a villain waiting to be sold, don't blame me for being rude. To be honest, this business is a joint transaction between this marquis and the Prince of Hejian. Who is the Prince of Hejian? No need for this marquis to elaborate on it. If you think you can offend it, you can give it a try!"

Since it is a partnership, you cannot be a hand-off manager. If you borrow your name, Li Mu will not feel guilty.

No one dared to speak out. One of the Marquis Zhulu and the others could no longer afford to offend him. In addition, the Prince of Hejian, who would dare to make a small plan?

"If you are interested, report the list first." Li Mu signaled Wei Yingluo. Wei Yingluo looked at him with a strange expression, got up and went to the next room, and registered for everyone.

At this end of the meeting, everyone stood up and went to join in the fun next door. Only three people stayed, one was Li Ying, the head of the Li family of Zhao County, the other was Feng Si of the Paper Floor, and the other was Bi Laosan, the supervisor of the printing affairs supervisor. When Li Mu asked Dugu Jiu to inform him today, he specifically informed the three people that after the meeting, there would be some important matters to discuss in detail.

Li Mu waved his hand and signaled the three of them to sit closer. Li Mu looked at Li Ying first and said, "How is the new bearing test?"

"The effect is very good, far exceeding the existing bearings." Li Ying has now completely convinced Li Mu. The bearing technology has not made any progress in hundreds of years. However, the new bearings that Li Mu brought out can be three times longer than the existing bearings. Such a great progress is simply shocking.

In the past, when everyone talked about Li Mu, Li Ying also said some slanderous words, but after seeing the new bearings, he put away all his prejudices. The new bearings proved that Li Mu had real skills. There are many people who have been lucky enough to enter the past, so who can make such exquisite bearings?

Li Ying hadn't been wronged. During the experiment, he found a skilled craftsman to try to disassemble the bearings and study the internal structure, and make them in the same way. However, this new bearing cannot be installed back as long as it is disassembled. Even if it can make exactly the same parts, it is useless. After several experiments, it is the case.

This is a unique skill that makes you unable to even imitate it!

Li Mu did not intend to hand over the bearing technology to others. The system is his biggest reliance, and it is a little less leaked. Technology is always the safest to master it in his own hands.

Li Mu did not mention the teaching matter, but said: "Since it is okay to test it, then set up a car manufacturing workshop as agreed. The Ministry of Works provides the bearings, you will make the vehicles and be responsible for selling them, and it will be 30% free of charge."

Although Li Ying knew that his hope was slim, he could not help but say, "Mr. Marquis, if he could teach bearing technology to our craftsmen, he would like to offer 20% of the pure profit to Marquis..."

"Don't talk about this!"

Seeing that Li Mu's attitude was firm, Li Ying stopped talking, sighed and said, "But the marquis is the decision."

"Okay, come to the Ministry of Works tomorrow to find Yingluo to establish a contract. After the contract is written, the factory will start producing bearings. You can arrange the rest of the matter yourself."

Li Ying nodded and agreed. He had no problem with him, so he said goodbye and left.

Li Mu looked at Bi Laosan again and asked, "Have the carved versions of "Detailed Explanation of the Sutra" and "Qianjin Fang" been engraved?"

"As the marquis' instructions, the proofreading was conducted three times, and there was no typo."

"Where are the people who work? Is it enough?"

"It's barely enough, everyone will share more burdens without delaying the progress."

"Very good, people need to ask for help." After saying that, he looked at Feng Si and said, "Are you ready to print the paper for these two books?"

"Report to the Marquis, my paper shop is really not producing enough because I have to supply paper for the Tang Daily. However, I contacted the Marquis two other paper shops and have already signed an order with their Ministry of Works, so I will not delay the Marquis' affairs."

"It's OK, but your paper shop should still be expanded. Don't worry about inventory. There will be more and more things to print books in the future, and you can digest a lot of inventory."

"The villain knows, but it's hard to find people who work now." Feng Si sighed and said, "The Marquis doesn't know. Since the Marquis bought all the slaves of the Kouya Store, everyone has followed suit. Now there are no slaves in the Kouya Store. There were no orders in the past. I was afraid that they could not be sold and that they would not need so many people who work. But now everyone has followed the Marquis and has received orders, fearing that they will be slow to work. The next time they are robbed by others, they are all red-eyed and snatched people everywhere. If they really can't grab them, they have gone back to their hometown to recruit refugees."

"Yes!" Li Mu was happy: "It's true that I have done some good deeds. This is fine. Those who can work will have food to eat. This winter, you can starve to death and freeze some people to death."

Feng Si hurriedly said: "It depends on the kindness of the Marquis."

Li Mu's eyes moved and said, "What kind of kindness? I know how much I weigh, how many people I can take care of. What is really worthy of praise is Your Majesty. Your Majesty is wise, and the lives of the people will get better and better. One day, there will be no hunger on the road and the people will live in peace. We are just doing our best to contribute to the bricks and tile."

Feng Si and Bi Laosan repeatedly said that they were.

Li Mu glanced at the door and said to himself, "Am I misread?"
