A few days later, Lu Yaoyao heard the news.

"It's fine, why would those people leave?"

"Is it because of the treatment, or was someone bullying them?"

A few days ago, Emperor Hongwen asked Wang De to talk to her about the management rights of Snowflake Salt being taken back by the court.

Regarding this, Lu Yaoyao didn't feel uncomfortable at all. Originally, she just wanted to use the court's mature channels to quickly expand the Lu family's business network.

Now that the Lu family's business network has been fully developed, there is no need to continue to keep this snowflake salt in their hands. After all, they can't get any income from this thing, and they are purely helping the court.

If it is done well, there is no reward. If something goes wrong, it will be very troublesome, so if the court wants to take it back, just take it back.

But today she heard Qiushuang say that news came back from all over the place, all the workshops under their Lu family, more or less a few skilled workers left.

If there were only one or two workshops, and she left for special reasons, she wouldn't care. After all, if someone goes to a higher place, maybe someone else's family has some difficulties, or maybe they have found a better job.

But nowadays, in almost every workshop, a few skilled workers have left, which made her feel that something was wrong.

"That's not the case. The slave has already sent someone to investigate. I believe there will be news in a short time."

The person Qiushuang sent out to investigate has not returned yet, but the old man of the Lu family has come.

As soon as he entered the door, he said with an ugly face; "Yaoyao, our house has been dug and knocked on the wall."

"Dig and knock on the wall?"

Thinking of what Qiushuang reported just now, Lu Yaoyao frowned.

"Grandpa, what's going on?"

"In the past few days, many people have left the workshop under our Lu family one after another. At first, the old man didn't take it seriously, but recently someone said that there are many things that are almost the same as our workshop on the market. "

"I just asked people to pay attention, and found that someone had established a new workshop, and those who left our workshop were almost all in charge of these workshops."

Speaking of this, old man Lu's complexion became even uglier.

The workshop is the lifeblood of their Lu family, and the things in it are all things that the Lu family can endure to survive, but now someone has stolen the technology.

"Have you found the people behind those workshops?"

Hearing this, Mr. Lu shook his head and said, "The person behind that is very mysterious. The old man has asked people to investigate for a long time, but he has no clue. It seems that the other party is very capable."

"I think it's very likely that they are dignitaries in the court. Otherwise, it would be impossible to have such courage and capital to poach so many people at once."

"And how tightly he hides himself."

As we all know, Princess Wanfu's weight in the imperial court is quite high now, and idle courtiers dare not provoke her.

The other party has such skills and background, obviously not an ordinary person, and then hides himself so tightly, is there a possibility that he knows that those materials belong to the Lu family, and the backer behind them is Princess Wanfu, so the other party Don't dare to offend, you can only hide in the dark.

"I know the matter, Grandpa, you don't have to worry, just let me handle it."

It's normal that Mr. Lu can't find out. Although he is also a powerful man in the capital now, his background is still a bit too bad, and it's normal that many things can't be found out through investigation.

But although he couldn't find out, Lu Yaoyao had a great chance to find out.

After all, behind her was Hei Yunshou, and Hou Si, the former emperor's guard.

"Yaoyao, this is big or small. If the status of the person we are dealing with is really noble, let's forget about it. These things will be spread around, but there is no need to hide and cover it all the time."

"I can save it."

That day, Mr. Lu stayed at the villa in the middle of the mountain until noon before leaving. Not long after he left, Qiu Shuang came with the results of Hou Si's investigation.

As soon as she opened her mouth, Lu Yaoyao was stunned, but soon relieved.

"Now that he has no opponent in the court, he will be very dangerous if he continues, but this is not the reason why he wants to hit our family."

"Calculated, how many people were poached from us?"

Qiu Shuang nodded and said respectfully; "There are as many as [-] people who have left so far."

"And these are all skilled workers, and each has many apprentices under their names, so when these people leave, they also leave hundreds of apprentices with them."

Although it is not enough to hurt the Lu family's bones, and Lu Yaoyao is able to get these things out, she intends to popularize the world. After all, she wants to transform Dongzhou. If she is alone, she has some strength. Insufficient.

It's just that it's one thing for her to give it, but it's another thing for you to grab it.

Especially the person behind this is actually King Zhao.

"He felt that he had no opponent now, and started to make trouble for me."

"In that case, let's find something for him to do so that he won't be distracted."

Afterwards, he asked Hou Si to sort out a list of court officials who stood in line with King Zhao.

At the same time, she needs to sort out all the shady things that all the people who have sorted out have done secretly.

When Hou Si retreated, Lu Yaoyao said coldly, "Since you are free and have nothing to do, and you came here to make me feel uncomfortable, then I will find something for you."

Two days passed in a flash. During these two days, there were no workers left in the workshops of the Lu family. However, many people found the local Lu family stewards, saying that during this time, someone had been trying to win them over.

And he also promised great profits. These craftsmen were not without being tempted, but they sobered up quickly.

Can the owner of Wanfu spare them if they attack Wanfu County's property?
Besides, the vast majority of these craftsmen were displaced from other places because of disasters. If Princess Wanfu hadn't taken them in back then, they would be ashamed of their graves now.

Many of them still value love and righteousness, and they know how to repay their kindness.

Soon, the information on Hou Si's side was sorted out, and it was also investigated that all these proposals seemed to be made by an official surnamed Liu in the court.

And above the court, there are still many ministers surnamed Liu, but it is still difficult for Hou Si to investigate.

In fact, he didn't do much to investigate and rule it out. He only needed to watch Zhao Wang's movements, and he could wait for the target he wanted.

Speaking of which, Master Liu's strategy succeeded one by one, which brought many benefits to King Zhao. As a result, King Zhao relied more on Master Liu.

During this period of time, the two of them got together whenever they had something to do, so how could they not know who the person who advised King Zhao was?

"In that case, let's start with him first."

"If you dig me 30 people, then I will suppress or remove your wings in the court one by one."
