Mingmen Family

Chapter 162 Solutions
Ye Yaming didn't want to talk more about this, and brought up another topic.

She asked Qi Ji, "What do you think of the prefect's attitude?"

Qi Ji nodded: "It looks pretty good, very enthusiastic."

"Then what do you think will happen to him if we drag him into the gang?"

Everyone in the room looked at her.

"Join?" Lu Guanyi immediately thought about the feasibility of this matter.

"Yes." Ye Yaming said, "Since Master Tongzhi can partner with Pin Yaxuan, why can't Master Zhifu partner with us?"

Lu Guanyi frowned: "The problem is that these officials will be transferred. Now let's pull him in, what will happen after he is transferred? If the successor has a political disagreement with Mr. Lu, we will not only waste all our previous efforts, but also cause trouble. "

The magistrate of Xin'an was surnamed Lu, and his name was Lu Xuanlin.

"That's right." Qi Ji shook his head, "This is inappropriate, we should give offerings. Everyone is giving offerings, just to avoid trouble."

Just like his father, the merchants in Lin'an City would send him generous gifts through Master Wu every year and festival.Whether these gifts are big or small, it all depends on the heart.

After accepting the gift, his father would also ask Mr. Wu to take care of these merchants if the law and the world allow it.

This is basically the case in the officialdom of the entire Dajin.As long as the number is not too large, and they are not taken care of by evildoers, let alone being exposed like the Yang family and being used by political opponents above, then it will be fine.

Ye Yaming shook his head: "Do you think Pin Yaxuan will not send gifts to Mr. Lu? If Mr. Liao wants to build a good relationship with Mr. Lu, he will only give more."

Anyway, it was the Wu family who gave the money, not Liao Zhi himself.The Wu family sent money, and Liao Zhi got a lot of money, so this deal should not be too cost-effective.

This is also the reason why those officials who have many sons are willing to let their sons marry a merchant girl, or simply take a concubine from a merchant.

One is rich, the other is powerful, the combination of government and businessmen is invincible.

Hearing what Ye Yaming said, Lu Guanyi frowned.

Even if the Wu family didn't send as many offerings as they did, if Lu Xuanlin wanted to work with Liao Zhi and win over this subordinate, he would support Pin Yaxuan instead of them.

After all, profit comes first.

"Miss Ye, why don't you explain your thoughts in detail." Lu Guanyi said.

Now that Ye Yaming has thought deeply about these issues, her suggestions should be able to solve all the problems they raised.

"Let's give him [-]% dry shares." Ye Yaming said, "That means he can pay nothing, and we will give him [-]% of the money we earn every year until he is transferred."

Everyone was stunned, and then thought it was a great idea.

Qi Ji was the first to praise: "Good idea."

The reason why he and Lu Guanyi were engaged in the tea business was of course that they had inquired about the profits of this business beforehand.After cooperating with the Ye family, he has a better understanding of the profits of this business.

Even if the newly purchased tea mountain has not yet produced tea, the newly built teahouse has to buy tea from the Ye family in Lin'an City to sell; Profits are still substantial.

Throughout the year, the 1% profit is always more than [-] taels of silver, right?

Once the tea mountain produces tea, the profit will double up.

Moreover, this cooperation does not need to use the name of Lu Xuanlin himself, but only needs to be participated in the name of his wife, son or distant relatives, and there is no need to take risks like accepting offerings. Save.

With a good income and no trouble, Lu Xuanlin must be very happy.

This is the benefit of Lu Xuanlin's side.

As for themselves, since they are in business, they have to abide by the private rules of Dajin, and they have to send some money every year to manage their business.Because there are many officials and many small officials, all kinds of things add up to more than ten thousand taels?
This is not counting the amount donated.

They sent out so much money, but no one took them as their own.When things happen, once the interests and money of the party in dispute with them are more dominant, officials will protect the other party more.

Now that the business is Lu Xuanlin's own, doesn't he feel bad for giving away so much money?Do other officials dare to accept offerings from their superiors?

In the end, they spent the least amount of money to get the most powerful backer.

The most wonderful thing is that they confiscated the other party's capital, and the other party was transferred, and this cooperation came to an end.They can work with their successors again.

Lu Guanyi looked at Ye Yaming with approval: "Ms. Ye's idea is really great, let's do it like this."

Ye Yaming smiled: "I'm just offering an idea. As for the feasibility of this method, it depends on the specific situation. If Mr. Lu is greedy and does not respect credibility; or if he is too honest and can't tolerate sand in his eyes Yes, then this method will not work. It is best for the two young masters not to mention it in front of him, so as not to cause trouble."

Lu Guanyi and Qi Ji's expressions became serious.

Lu Guanyi cupped his hands to Ye Yaming: "Thank you, Miss Ye, for reminding me."

This courtesy is unavoidable, Ye Yaming had no choice but to nod in return: "Then it will be hard for you two."

"Then do you need to stay here for a while? If necessary, I can go to Yishan with Fourth Uncle first."

Qi Ji asked puzzledly: "If Master Lu can't reach an agreement, do we still have to buy tea here?"

"The tea produced in Chashan is directly bought by the tea company. There is no obstacle in this step. And the tea from the tea company has to be sold, right? It's not us who buys the tea, but also other people." Ye Yaming said, " As long as we don't open a teahouse here, there won't be too many conflicts of interest. If everything is in place, it won't be a problem if we want to get a tea guide."

Ye Yaming looked at Lu Guanyi: "Young Master Lu, what do you think?"

Lu Guanyi nodded: "That's true. The markets in Beijing and Lin'an are so big. If we transport the tea produced here to Beijing and Lin'an, there will be no problems to worry about."

After analyzing it like this, he said: "Then let's go to Yishan together in the future."

Ye Yaming said: "We still have to pass through this place when we return to Lin'an from Yishan. Then you can stay here for a while, get in touch with Mr. Lu, and get in touch with the officials of the tea department. Fourth uncle and I will rush Go back and make spring tea, so there will be no delay."

Lu Guanyi took a deep look at Ye Yaming, nodded and said, "Okay, let's do it like this."

Both of them were straightforward people, after reconfirming the itinerary, seeing that Qi Ji and Ye Hongrong had no objections, Lu Guanyi took Qi Ji back to his yard.

The next day they continued to go out to socialize.

Lu Xuanlin learned that they were going to Yishan the next day, so he hosted a banquet to greet Lu Guanyi at noon, and Qi Ji took Lu Guanyi to the banquet together.After all, Lu Guanyi is emotional and reasonable, so he should visit Lu Xuanlin.
