Chapter 233: The fire is boiling, the building is rising

Chapter 233: The fire is boiling, the building is rising
The trade documents of Tiandi League were approved on the third day. Was it a coincidence or someone was behind it?

As for Li Rui, no one knows.

But it's not important.

Soon he started his first business trip.

The first business trip was extremely important, and the Tiandi Alliance had made extensive preparations for it.

Li Rui and Ning Zhongtian have special identities, so of course it is impossible for them to go to Wu Country in person to do business.

But apart from those two, all the masters in the Tiandi Alliance were out in full force, led by the second leader Huang Chui and the third leader Fei Laosan, and the momentum was quite great.

The purpose is to ensure that business is foolproof.

Although the foundation of the Tiandi Alliance is not as good as those big gangs, the specifications of the caravan are not bad.

No matter how powerful a sect is, it is impossible for the sect leader to do business himself, right?
Looking at the caravan of 300 people that had already set out, Ning Zhongtian felt emotional:

"To do things, you still have to rely on your elder brother."

He, Huang Chui and Fei Laosan struggled hard, but the Tiandi League was just a larger gang, and they made their money from shady activities like gambling houses and brothels.

Now, Jiang Linxian has agreed to the business of selling weapons. According to the eldest brother, even the emperor is involved.

What concept?
As Li Rui said in his previous life, the referee was too lazy to play and had no idea how to lose.

"From now on, the Tiandi Alliance will also be a gang that eats the emperor's food."

Ning Zhongtian felt very happy.

He had heard a long time ago that some sects and gangs specifically did private work for His Majesty the Emperor, and that they were all incredibly lucrative.

But not everyone can do it.

The key is to have connections.

"Don't worry, fourth brother. I've already said hello to Dao Meng and Guan Ka, and second and third brothers also brought the letter I wrote to Dao Mo, so nothing should go wrong."

Ning Zhongtian looked at Li Rui again, and was completely convinced.

I suddenly felt that bringing Li Rui into the Tiandi Alliance was one of the best decisions I had made in my life.

With all the emotions in his heart, he finally called out sincerely, "Brother."

Li Rui rolled his eyes: "If you don't cry for me, big brother, I'd be happy to see Longmen martial artist cry."

"."

A month passed.

Finally, we waited for the Tiandi Alliance caravan to return from the Witch Kingdom.

When we left, the trucks were filled with dozens of goods, but when we came back, the trucks were empty.

"Second brother, third brother, thank you for your hard work."

Li Rui looked at the people who looked exhausted but grinning from ear to ear and knew that the trip was going smoothly.

How could it not go smoothly?

The one who made the weapons was Tie Kuang, the elder of the Shenbing Villa. The one who sold the weapons was, at the most minimum, a military officer of the An Ning Guard, and at the most maximum, the emperor of the Yu Kingdom himself, and the court of the Wu Kingdom, who bought the weapons.

It's official to official, which means there is no formal official document, otherwise it would have to be called state aid.

Perfect closed loop!

It would be strange if something went wrong.

It is much more clever than the methods of Cao Wei, Zhuang Renhe and Shenbing Villa.

It’s not that they don’t want to do this, but they lack a path like Li Rui.

The Wu Kingdom delegation in Qinghe only recognized Li Rui, which was a unique condition.

Huang Chui shook his head like a rattle, looking very happy: "It's not hard, it's not hard."

"Brother, I have accomplished my mission. Here is the account book for this business trip. Take a look."

As he said that, he took out a booklet from his arms and handed it to Li Rui.

It's wrinkled and you can tell it's been flipped a lot.

Ning Zhongtian came forward and Li Rui opened it.

Both of them gasped.

"Three fifth-grade pills, thirty sixth-grade pills, three hundred seventh-grade pills, a total of one thousand eighth- and ninth-grade pills, and ten thousand taels of gold."

Look, look, there are thousands of eighth and ninth grade elixirs. The elixirs that I used to regard as treasures are now not even worth counting.

Ning Zhongtian widened his eyes.

Be nice.

The profit from one transaction is almost equal to the profit of Tiandimeng in five years.

It’s no wonder that every force is jealous of this business.

It's really fucking profitable.

This was because Li Rui was worried that he was not familiar with the situation during his first business trip, so he only took out half of the weapons.

Seeing the expressions of Li Rui and Ning Zhongtian, Huang Chui and Fei Lao San were even more proud: "How is it, not bad, right?"

"This is not a yes, it's a very good yes."

Ning Zhongtian said seriously.

Huang Chui said with a smile: "This is all thanks to my elder brother. The weapons he got are of good quality, and we all know people in Wu Country, so we bought them all without much bargaining."

Li Rui nodded.

Dao Mo was of course happy. These weapons were not ordinary weapons. They were all made by the master weaponsmith himself, and their value was higher than that of ordinary weapons.

Moreover, the Wu Kingdom is still in the midst of a civil war and is in short supply of weapons, especially good weapons.

When doing business with others, on the one hand, you have to worry about quality issues, and on the other hand, you have to worry about the risk of out of stock at any time.

But if you work with Li Rui, there will be no such troubles.

It's like giving someone a pillow when they are sleepy, so of course they won't worry about the details.

Otherwise, it is real money. No matter how good the relationship between the two parties is, they will not spend money on it. The key is that Li Rui has a good grasp of the scale.

Li Rui handed the account book to Huang Chui and said, "Second brother, I would like to trouble you to take out the fifth-grade, sixth-grade, and seventh-grade elixirs. Find a vacant property in Qinghe in our alliance with a clean foundation and put the things in a room. You can take care of it yourself, and someone will come to pick them up when the time comes."

Huang Chui and Fei Laosan were stunned when they heard this.

They could tell that Li Rui was going to give away all the elixirs above the seventh grade.

Although the profit is divided into 70% and 30%, there are many ways to divide it.

The value is similar, and it is obviously more profitable to get the high-grade pills.

Even for the two of them, they rarely have the chance to see fifth- and sixth-grade elixirs.

I worked hard and ran around anxiously for a month, but in the end others took the lion's share and got all the good stuff.

The psychological gap was hard for both of them to accept for a while.

Huang Chui couldn't help but ask, "We're all doing business together, so we can just split the profits equally. There's no need to be so pushy, right?"

Unexpectedly, Li Rui's face turned cold, and he glanced at Huang Chui: "Second brother, I don't want to hear such words again in the future. Let me tell you, we can't afford to offend those people. If you have this idea, don't get involved in this business in the future."

"Brother."

Huang Chui was shocked. He didn't expect Li Rui to be so decisive. Just a question resulted in such a big reaction.

Li Rui's attitude made him at a loss for words for a moment.

Li Rui then sighed softly.

Huang Chui and Fei Laosan didn't know the situation, so he didn't blame them, but he couldn't have such thoughts because of this reason, otherwise he would probably drag the entire Tiandi Alliance down with him.

So you have to speak frankly, and speak harshly.

"Some things cannot be said, but second brother, third brother, remember to give in when it comes to profit sharing, and don't be greedy, otherwise you will definitely find yourself in danger of death."

Hearing about the murderous disaster.

Huang Chui and Fei Laosan were both awed.

Considering Li Rui's attitude just now, he is most likely a big shot.

Ning Zhongtian knew the inside story and he understood that what Li Rui said was true.

No matter which party is in this business, the Tiandi Alliance cannot afford to offend them.

Just as Li Rui said, taking money from either side would be enough to kill the Tiandi Alliance without a burial place.

"Second brother, third brother, just listen to eldest brother, this matter is really important."

Huang Chui and Fei Laosan were shocked when they saw Ning Zhongtian say this.

His expression also became serious.

"Yes, I'll remember that later."

The two of them were not rookies, and they understood the seriousness of the matter. Huang Chui said seriously: "I will do it myself."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, second brother."

Seeing Huang Chui's reaction, Li Rui nodded with satisfaction.

It doesn’t matter if the Tiandimeng is a little wild. If the gang loses its drive, how can it develop?

But he had to be wild, and there were some things that he shouldn't touch that he had to stop once they showed signs of happening, otherwise it would be too late when something happened, and by then it would not only be the Tiandi Alliance that would be held accountable, he would also be implicated.

At this time.

Liang He walked into the main room.

Li Rui smiled slightly: "Second brother, third brother, this is my useless apprentice. If there is anything that the Tiandi League needs in the future, he can be entrusted to him. He was also a member of the Tiandi League before."

Liang He said to Huang Chui and Fei Lao San: "Greetings to the two leaders."

He originally came from the Tiandi Alliance, so of course he knew Huang Chui and Fei Laosan.

Fei Lao San looked at Liang He and said, "Not bad, young and promising."

He just felt that Liang He had a noble demeanor and it was hard to tell how deep his martial arts skills were, and his praise was just to give Li Rui face.

Huang Chui also nodded: "Liang He, right? Then come with me for a walk."

"Yes, Alliance Leader Huang."

Liang He clasped his fists, and then followed Huang Chui out of the Tiandi Alliance.

Li Rui looked at the backs of the two people as they left.

As for his three disciples, Liu Tiezhu follows Tie Kuang to forge iron, so he doesn't have to worry too much. Now he arranges Liang He to come to Tiandi League, and the meaning is very clear, that is, to support Liang He to become the future leader of Tiandi League.

As for whether it can succeed, it depends on Liang He’s own luck.

What’s more, what the Tiandi Alliance is doing now is dangerous, so Li Rui needs someone to watch over it.

On the surface, it was to give Liang He some experience.

In fact, he also had the intention of supervising Huang Chui and Fei Laosan.

In fact, among the three previous leaders of the Tiandi Alliance, except Ning Zhongtian, Huang Chui and Fei Laosan were only considered mediocre in Li Rui's eyes.

Although they became sworn brothers, that was only for Ning Zhongtian's sake.

Huang Chui and Fei Laosan may not truly recognize him as their big brother.

It’s not that I’m not sincere, it’s just that building trust takes time to test. Trusting people too easily will only make yourself uncomfortable.

Liang He’s existence is Li Rui’s eyes in the Tiandi Alliance.

Maybe some people will feel uncomfortable, but they have to do it. It is better for others to feel uncomfortable than for themselves.

When it comes to interests, or even life and death, there is no room for playfulness and it is bound to offend people.

Ning Zhongtian saw all of this.

I sighed in my heart.

He naturally knew Li Rui's plan.

Ning Zhongtian, Huang Chui and Fei Laosan worked as swordsmen together for ten years before they became sworn brothers. The friendship that has built up over time is naturally extraordinary.

But after all, Li Rui had only known Huang Chui and Fei Laosan for a few months.

Based on Ning Zhongtian's understanding of Li Rui, he was actually being extremely tolerant.

However, Ning Zhongtian didn't think there was anything wrong with what Li Rui did.

In the past he was a gangster, so he naturally thought that there was no problem. But now that he is an official, he finds that it is not the case. If a gang wants to become bigger, it must have the spirit of pioneering and daring to fight, but there is one more important thing, that is, don't provoke people you can't afford to offend.

Just one mistake like this could lead to the destruction of the entire gang.

How to prevent it?

Just set the rules.

And everyone must abide by this rule. Only in this way can they stand firm in the raging waves.

Although the Tiandi Alliance is not very big, it has already shown this trend.

Neither he nor Li Rui liked this trend.

So Li Rui chose to strangle him to death from the beginning to avoid having to painfully lose his arm in the end.

Li Rui seemed to be thinking about something.

The current Tiandi Alliance is so similar to the Zhu family back then. Huang Chui and Fei Laosan are just like Zhu Lie, and they cannot change their previous brutal style of behavior.

These temperaments may be very useful in the early stages and can accomplish a lot.

But as its power continues to grow, it will become an incurable disease.

So Li Rui intended to curb this phenomenon from the very beginning.

He never liked to let trouble grow bigger.

Do it all.

Li Rui said to Ning Zhongtian: "Fourth brother, I'll leave this to you."

Ning Zhongtian nodded.

Li Rui took the booklet and left the Tiandi Alliance. A moment later he arrived at the An Ning Wei Military Commander's Mansion.

"Jiang Boss, this is the list of goods to be shipped this time. I have ordered people to put the elixirs above the seventh grade in an empty house in the city. No one will be discovered if we send someone to pick them up."

Jiang Linxian looked at the booklet in her hand.

A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He didn't need to do anything, and tens of thousands of taels of silver would be deposited into his account, and it belonged to him alone, not shared by the Huaqing Sect.

When accumulated over time, it is not a small number.

"well done."

Jiang Linxian looked at Li Rui with admiration.

The account book had been turned over and crumpled many times, so it was obviously the original and difficult to falsify. Not only that, Li Rui was also very considerate and prepared everything, saving him a lot of trouble.

The more he looked at the little old man Li Rui, the more he liked him.

Who can not love a subordinate who does his job well?
"Just leave the things here for now. I'll arrange for someone to pick them up when the time comes."

"Jiang Tou'er, if there is nothing else, I will leave first."

"Go."

After the first batch of weapons were sold, there was a break period of about a month.

After all, Tie Kuang has only two people under him, and the original owner of the blacksmith shop is Liu Tiezhu. The quantity certainly cannot be too many, but fortunately the quality is extremely high, so the profit can be guaranteed.

Gradually.

Tie Kuang couldn't handle the task alone, so he simply handed over the task of purchasing materials to Li Rui.

He just focused on his ironmaking duties.

Of course Li Rui was happy to have picked up another good job.

Under his personal management, most of the illegal industries of Tiandimeng have been closed down, leaving only the respectable industries.

Moreover, the profit from a single business trip is now equal to the profit of the Tiandi Alliance in the previous year, so there is really no need to continue wasting manpower on those things.

Of course some people are not happy.

Then those who were unhappy were transferred to less busy positions.

Commonly known as, overhead.

Naturally, these were all Li Rui's work. When managing a large gang, one cannot be lenient.

soon.

The second business trip will come.

This day.

Li Rui was staying in his own office of the Municipal Trade Bureau, and then he saw Tang Hai running in.

"Boss Li, there's a Huaqing Sect disciple outside who wants to see you."

"I think his name is Liu Tong."

Li Rui put down the book in his hand and said in a deep voice: "Let him come in."

"Okay."
