It's broken, and was picked up by a femme fatale

Lu Yuan briefly explained,
Judy invested in the company by supplying coal and iron sheets, holding 70% of the shares.

Although Lu Yuan only took 30%, it didn't seem like much.
But, it’s mainly about technology and management. We don’t take advantage, but we don’t lose out either.

Moreover, with the other party's joining, it would be much easier for him to make semi-automatic machinery.
And you don’t have to worry about being bullied by others, just think of it as spending money to buy peace.

Sure enough, the eldest lady also felt that she had taken too much:

"That's not right. You've been working hard, too. How about we split it 50-50?"

Lu Yuan smiled and said, "Let's talk business.
The raw materials are the bulk of the business, and you take 70% of the profits, which is not much..."

Judy thought about it, but didn't insist.

The two sides happily high-fived and reached a cooperation agreement.

"Okay, just transfer the money to the account every month!"

Lu Yuanque said seriously:
"I am working with the eldest lady, so I can only hand the money over to you in person!"

Judy didn't think much about it and said:

"Well, it doesn't matter, it's up to you!"

Lu Yuan's true intentions are revealed.

"Miss, there aren't many people in Nanyun Town.

Otherwise, we can open a coal cake shop in Bangcheng, that way we can earn more money!"

Judy asked doubtfully, "Are you sure?"

“Of course, first of all, Bangcheng coal prices are the highest;
Secondly, there is a huge demand from hundreds of thousands of residents, so our coal briquettes will sell better!"

"Well, that's right. Should we buy a shop in Bangcheng?"

"No need, we can buy a piece of land in the suburbs of Bangcheng, build a shed, and smear cement on the ground..."

"Okay, got it. Wait for my news in two days!"

After Judy left, Lu Yuan took his two assistants home and continued to make honeycomb coal and coal stoves.

Three days later, Judy sent someone to inform him.

The land in the northern suburbs of Bangcheng has been purchased.
They are currently setting up the shed, applying cement, and erecting the wall. I estimate that people will be able to come in within a week.

Also, she has already greeted the prince.
Shen Beixuan sold coal cakes in Bangcheng, and also received tacit approval from the government.
In return, a 10% commission was given to the government every month.

Now, Lu Yuan's honeycomb briquettes business has greatly expanded in terms of scale and manpower.

There are six guys.

In addition to Mantun and Xiuniang, five villagers from the village joined in.

Four new people specialize in making coal cakes, one new person follows Lu Yuan to make coal stoves, Mantun and Xiuniang are in charge of sales,
Now, the honeycomb briquet business has expanded to Sanchapu and Zhuxiantai.

Anyone who has bought coal stoves and honeycomb coal says they are good.
After all, it saves money, effort and trouble visibly, and no one is stupid, right?
After receiving Zhu Di's message, Lu Yuan immediately brought Sun Xiuniang to the north gate.

The yard was not small, and there were a dozen bricklayers scattered around, working carelessly.
They all looked like they hadn't eaten for three days, and they were blown everywhere by the wind...

Xiuniang said angrily:

"These guys are going too far. They shouldn't be so slow even if they are working so hard!"

Lu Yuan said with a smile:

"Don't be impatient! They usually do it earlier. They must have a reason for doing this..."

Sun Xiuniang was stunned and asked, "What's the reason?"

"Honestly, I don't know either. How about you go and ask?"

Sun Xiuniang actually went up to inquire.

Then people heard that she came with her boss,
He immediately shut up and pretended to work seriously...but in fact he was just repetitive and useless work.

Sun Xiuniang didn't take it seriously and went to find someone else.
However, I never expected that after asking three people in a row, they all gave the same answer.
Later, all the masons in the hospital,
Everyone knows that Lu Yuan and Sun Xiuniang are the owners of this workshop.

No matter how much we asked, he refused to say anything.

Sun Xiuniang naturally thought that they were deliberately targeting the two of them.
She suggested that Lu Yuan give these unruly bricklayers a good beating!
However, Lu Yuan felt that his judgment was correct.
So he told Xiuniang a few words,
Xiuniang nodded, turned and left.

After a short while, he brought back a bucket of offal from the meat stall.
Nowadays, the offal of pigs, cattle and sheep is very dirty, smelly and smelly, and can't be sold at a high price.

Either they cook it and feed it to the dog, and then they are overjoyed to see someone buy it.

Hurry up and sell them one by one, even if they are worth less than two cents. This way you don't have to take them home and waste firewood to cook.
Sun Xiuniang returned with a great harvest, and Lu Yuan picked up a flower and smiled, and they were in perfect harmony with each other!

The two of them fetched clean water, rubbed and washed the offal repeatedly, and then cut it into small pieces with a kitchen knife.

After half an hour, I finally cleaned up the mess.
Light a fire in the big pot on the earthen stove at the door, add water, and boil it.

Then pour all the offal without any peculiar smell into the pot.

Add a handful of onion, ginger, chili pepper, star anise, cinnamon, fennel, etc.

After boiling again, add half a piece of salt, cover the pot with a large lid, and simmer over low heat.
Soon, a pot of fragrant offal soup was cooked.

The fragrance is like a hook.

All the greedy bugs in the bricklayer's stomach were caught.

Lu Yuan scooped up some soup with a big spoon, tasted it, and found it tasted okay, so he called to the courtyard:

"Masters, take a break!

It’s very cold today, so I drink some hot soup to fill my stomach and warm myself up.”

Someone asked cautiously, "Boss, do you charge for the soup?"

Lu Yuan laughed and said, "No charge, you guys work really hard, this is my treat!"

Now, the bricklayers were all smiling and gathered around.

Those who work at the bottom are just trying to make ends meet.

They had smelled the scent long ago.

They all drooled and looked at me eagerly.

Now the boss invites everyone to come and have soup for free.

Many people, no matter what evil intentions the other party has, always think that having a bowl of hot soup is not a loss.

Although Sun Xiuniang didn't know what Brother Xuanzi was up to,
But now she trusts him.
She helped the cook, holding a large spoon and slowly putting a spoonful of soup into each bowl.
The master mason and the small worker, silently holding the coarse porcelain bowl, squatted aside and ate and drank with big mouthfuls.
Hey!
Not to mention, this offal soup is rich in oil and aroma, and the offal is very chewy.
What's even better is that after taking a bite, it's spicy and warm.
The originally chilly wind seemed to be blowing away from me, which was so comfortable!

When you have enough food in your stomach, your body will not feel cold and you will naturally have a smile on your face.
Others gathered in groups of three or four, whispering to each other in private.

"Hey, this little boss looks pretty good!"

"All crows are black, and rich people have no conscience!"

"That's not what you say. If I could have a bowl like this every day, wouldn't I work hard for him?"

"Who knows? Maybe it's just a way to win people's hearts. It's only this time!"

"Who cares? It's free anyway, so who wouldn't want to eat it for free?"

However, when they came back to deliver the bowls, they thanked him politely.

"Thank you, boss and madam!"

"Thank you, boss, thank you, boss lady!"

This immediately made Sun Xiuniang blush!
“I am not…”

Lu Yuan laughed out loud:
"Stop talking nonsense, this is my sister from Chihe Village, Sun Xiuniang, my name is Shen Beixuan!"

The masons also laughed:
"Hello, Mr. Shen! Hello, Miss Sun!"

Chatting and laughing, these bricklayers returned to their posts with a different spirit and energy.

The construction progress seems to have been accelerated.

Sun Xiuniang's eyes widened.
It only cost a few cents, and there was no need to say anything.
It's amazing that the effect is immediate!

Lu Yuan walked around and chatted with them.
Soon, he became friends with the group of bricklayers.
At dusk, Sun Xiuniang brought in a bunch of big river clams.

Pry open the clam shell and take out the meat, which weighs four or five pounds.

Chop and wash, throw into the offal soup left over from lunch, and boil over high heat.

Although river clams are cheap, they are still river food and high in protein.

The bricklayers ate the food with great delight.

After seeing off the bricklayer, Lu Yuan and Sun Xiuniang also headed to Chihe Village.

On the way, Sun Xiuniang suddenly stretched out her little fist.

He flashed in front of Shen Beixuan and said mysteriously:
"Brother Xuanzi, guess what I have in my hand? If you guess it right, I'll give it to you!"

Lu Yuan really didn't know, so he made a random guess:

"Ocean!"

"wrong!"

"Copper money?" "That's not right, guess again!"

"Flower hairband, flower handkerchief, peanuts, flower girl, playboy..."

"Puch!"

Sun Xiuniang couldn't help laughing.
"Brother Xuanzi, why do I feel like you've been a little bit dishonest lately?"

Lu Yuan said: "I surrender, I can't guess it!"

"Look!"

Sun Xiuniang spread out her little palms.
A plump, golden-luster, half-finger-sized round bead came into Lu Yuan's sight.

Ouch!

Isn't this a pearl?!
Moreover, it is an extremely rare "golden pearl"!
It's hard to say how much it's worth, but I guess it's at least a hundred dollars or more...

"Where are you from..."

Lu Yuan understood in a flash that when Sun Xiuniang was processing the river clams,

This girl is so lucky!

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan said, "Xiuniang, if you have this pearl, you will be rich!"

Sun Xiuniang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said:

"Brother Xuanzi, these are not my pearls, they are your pearls!"

Ok?
Lu Yuan didn't understand.
Sun Xiuniang said:
"You bought the oyster with money, and this pearl grew out of the oyster.

So, it’s yours!”

As she spoke, she stuffed the rare yellow and golden pearl into Shen Beixuan's hand without any reluctance.

Damn!

Lu Yuan felt very ashamed.
He never thought that there were such pure and innocent people in the world.
He treats money as dirt, what a gentleman!
Lu Yuan thought about it and said with a smile:

"You can't say that. I bought the clams.

But, if you don't notice it carefully, it will belong to someone else.

Let's put it this way. According to the rules of the martial arts world, if you see half...

We will split this pearl fifty-fifty."

Sun Xiuniang still declined.
"Brother Xuanzi, really, I don't want it. I'll give it all to you... Please give it to the Ninth Young Master!"

Ok?
Lu Yuan was confused again.

"I can understand what you said to me, but...
Why would you give it to that girl? You don’t know, her family is very rich…”

Sun Xiuniang hesitated for a long time before she said quietly:

"Don't you realize that she likes you?"

Huh? ?

Lu Yuan looked at Sun Xiuniang in surprise.
"What did you say? She likes me, are you kidding?"

Sun Xiuniang smiled bitterly and said:

"Brother Xuanzi, you are so smart, so stop pretending to be stupid...

If she didn't like you, why would she come to your house every other day?
Also, no matter what you ask, she never refuses...isn't that obvious?"

Lu Yuan shook his head and said with a smile:

"I think you are stupid, you don't even think about it,
Who is she? Who am I? Can we be related? ! "

Sun Xiuniang asked cautiously:

"Then if you make money from making honeycomb coal, can't you get closer?"

"Hahaha!"

In the dark night, Lu Yuan's laughter spread far away.
"You think too simply. They are the best.
We will always be the lowest class of cattle and horses, ridden by thousands and sat on by tens of thousands... We will never be able to stand up again!"

Sun Xiuniang was a little speechless. After a while, she asked weakly:

"But she really likes you, right?"

Lu Yuan shrugged and spread his hands.

"It's her right to be whoever she likes,

What can I do? Anyway, it is impossible for us to be together..."

Sun Xiuniang suddenly felt better for no apparent reason.
"Actually, if you really want to, you can elope...

I heard in operas that many young ladies from wealthy families eloped with the boys of farmhands! "

Lu Yuan's head was filled with black lines.

Some rubbish and unscrupulous online writers write "YY cool articles"
I don’t know how many young boys and girls he has killed. He deserves to go to hell!
"I won't elope!"

Sun Xiuniang was obviously still immersed in the beautiful drama and asked blankly:

"why?"

"If you don't even respect your parents, are you still a human being?"

uh~~
Sun Xiuniang was in a dilemma for a while.
On the left is beautiful sweet love, on the right is the cannibalistic feudal ethics...how to choose?

After thinking about it, she pouted and asked:

"But as the old saying goes, lovers will eventually marry...my parents insist on breaking up the couple, what can I do?"

Lu Yuan smiled and said:

"Oh, then, besides the drama,

How many couples have you seen separated by their parents in real life? "

Sun Xiuniang racked her brains but couldn't find a real example.

She was so angry that she said:

"Well, then there must be such a thing, otherwise it wouldn't be written into the play..."

"That's right! But, this kind of thing is very rare.
The vast majority of couples who followed their parents’ advice actually had a pretty good life.

On the contrary, most of the men and women who defied their parents and eloped lived a miserable life..."

Wow ya ya!

Sun Xiuniang's worldview is about to break apart...

"What? Brother Xuanzi, are you kidding me?"

Lu Yuan sighed and said heavily:

"Whether you believe it or not, what I said is the truth...

I bet that the relationship between a young lady from a wealthy family and the son of a farmhand is doomed to fail!"

In order to refute it, Sun Xiuniang racked her brains and finally found a love story of a famous historical figure.

"I remember that after Zhuo Xiangru and Sima Wenjun eloped,

They have always loved each other and respected each other... Do you dare to say that they are not living well?"

Lu Yuan laughed,
Said disdainfully:
"You mean 'Wenjun Dangluo'?"

"Yes! That's right. Although they live in poverty, their love is stronger than gold..."

Lu Yuan shook his head and said:
"You are wrong! Absolutely wrong!"

"Ah~~Where did I go wrong?"

"First of all, this is actually a conspiracy by Zhuo Xiangru...

You know, in the social atmosphere at that time, women from respectable families did not go out of the house.

Most of the people soliciting business in the shops are prostitutes who flirt with their heads and poses... Especially the beautiful women who sell wine at the bar.
The vulgar male guests who came to drink would always pester or take advantage of me.

Guess why Zhuo Xiangru wanted Sima Wenjun to be so shamefully exposed? "

Sun Xiuniang said:
"Because they are poor, there is nothing a wife can do about it, as she has to earn money to support the family..."

"No, you are wrong!

Because there must be someone who cares.
Tell Sima Wenjun's rich father about this situation.

And, for the Sima family's sake,

This unlucky father-in-law had to give money to his daughter and son-in-law for their living...

Zhuo Xiangru plotted against his father-in-law and used his own woman as a tool... He is worse than an animal!"

Sun Xiuniang was stunned...

This, this, this...is not true! (End of this chapter)
