Seeing that new carriages, sugar, and wine are about to be produced, there are no corresponding factories, sugar mills, or wineries.

Liu Xiu is sad.

I can't even spend my money, so what's the matter?

Liu Xiu opened his mouth and said, "No, I can only look around Hangzhou Mansion. If it doesn't work, I can only choose a more remote place."

Old Zhu seemed to have thought of this for Liu Xiu a long time ago, and asked with a smile,

"What do you think of Anqing Mansion?"

Liu Xiu replied without hesitation, "Anqing Mansion is great! I set up this workshop to resettle the refugees. If we can set up a factory in Anqing Mansion, it will save the refugees the troublesome transfer."

"What's more, Anqing Prefecture is a port city. The goods in the factory are ready, and they can be traded when they go out, which saves me a lot of transportation costs."

"It's just that there is such a large land in Anqing Mansion that can be used? Even if there is, they won't sell it!"

Old Zhu nodded secretly in his heart when he heard the words,

The first thing Liu Xiu thought about was resettling the refugees. This was what Lao Zhu felt in his heart, and it was also the fundamental reason why Lao Zhu supported the Liu family in doing business in Wu.

Moreover, Liu Xiu is also honest in his words, he doesn't hide anything, he doesn't shy away from wanting to save some transportation costs,

In short, Lao Zhu felt comfortable listening to Liu Xiu's words.

Old Zhu smiled mysteriously, "Come on, we found a good place for you."

Chapter 257 The Choice for Old Zhu

"We found a good place for you!"

Liu Xiu was taken aback for a moment, puzzled,

Shen Wansan and Mrs. Li have completely devoted their minds to this matter for a while, but they have tried their best to find a suitable site.

Not to mention the Anqing Mansion, Shen Wansan has gone all the places that Anqing Mansion can go,

Shen Wansan's answer to Liu Xiu was...

It's impossible!

As for this big problem, Lao Zhu has a solution?

Lao Zhu walked ahead triumphantly, and Liu Xiu followed closely behind. After walking for a while, Liu Xiu's eyes widened.

Liu Xiu suddenly knew where Lao Zhu was talking about!

The two stopped in front of Lu's manor, and Liu Xiu's heart was filled with [-] muddy horses, roaring in his heart,

It really is here!

Lao Zhu blinked his eyes, "How is this land? There are plowed fields, canals, and watchtowers. The land is large and the location is good. Damn it, let Lu Yong stay for another two years, it will be more comfortable than our palace !"

Liu Xiu nodded quickly,

This place is just too good to be true!

Perfectly met all Liu Xiu's needs!

"Go, go in and have a look."

The two walked into Luzhuang, and saw that Luzhuang was in a mess, leaving only a dilapidated area.

I didn't even have time to remove the bright red splashed on the ground,

Don't think about it, it was completely copied,

Liu Xiu's heart skipped a beat for no reason,

How arrogant Lu Yong was in Anqing Mansion, but in front of the imperial power, he was so fragile that he was not even as good as an egg.

Liu Xiu followed Lao Zhu around the Lu Mansion, and Lao Zhu was almost three times Liu Xiu's age.

But if Liu Xiu hadn't followed up a few steps quickly, he would have been thrown away by Lao Zhu long ago.

This is Lao Zhu, the traveler who has measured the world!

After a cursory look around, Liu Xiu was shocked. The last time she came here, Liu Xiu hadn't traveled all over the Lu Mansion.

It is said that it is the Lu Manor, but it is actually a huge manor.

The estate, even in troubled times, was entirely self-sufficient, and at the same time able to hold out against large numbers of enemy troops.

Liu Xiu has only one feeling,

Big!Really big!

Just this is enough!

In addition to reserving land for five factories, Liu Xiu also needs to build a large dormitory for workers, as well as a large canteen.

These three places alone require a large area to occupy.

To be honest, there is only the Lu family's manor in Anqing Mansion, which can meet Liu Xiu's requirements.

After figuring this out, Liu Xiu rolled her eyes, quickly prostrated herself on the ground, and said loudly,

"Thank you, Your Majesty!!!"

Seeing this, Lao Zhu scolded with a smile, "You little fox, when did we say we were going to send you off?"

"Ah? Didn't you send me off?" Liu Xiu looked up blankly.

Old Zhu stared, "Your father Liu Meng is so honest, why did you give birth to such a generous little bastard?"

Liu Xiu said shamelessly, "I'm also self-taught."

"Hahaha, yes, although your father is a good man, it's hard for a good man to live long."

Zhu Yuanzhang straightened his expression, and said, "Xiu'er, let's tell you straight, the government of Anqing has no money."

Liu Xiu wondered, "How can there be no money? Didn't His Majesty confiscate the houses of those officials?"

Lao Zhu was a little ashamed, and said, "I copied it. I have money, but not much. After a few days of relief to the refugees, there will be nothing left. So we are in a hurry to find a place for you and resettle the refugees as soon as possible."

"This..." Liu Xiu was a little dazed. This was completely different from what he thought. The officials in Anqing Mansion were basically corrupt officials, so how could they not have copied much money?

Then there is only one possibility, the people in Anqing Mansion have nothing to worry about,

Therefore, no matter how greedy the Anqing government officials are, they will not be able to extract money.

As for those wealthy merchants in Anqing Mansion...

Hehe, they work hand in hand with the officials and split the accounts, how can the officials move them?

But now it's too late for Lao Zhu to move this group of wealthy businessmen. They have already seen that the limelight is not right, so they slipped away.

"So, Anqing Mansion really has no money?"

Old Zhu nodded, "Song Zan and that Xia Yuanji have some ideas, but they can only last for a while. It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice. We can only find you now."

"To tell you the truth, we only have this piece of land in our hands. It is impossible to give it to you for free. If you want it, you can ask for a price."

Liu Xiu paused, two sets of plans quickly flashed through her mind, and said directly,

"Your Majesty, I have two plans for you to choose from."

Old Zhu asked with great interest when he heard the words, "Come on, tell us about it."

"First," Liu Xiu raised a finger, "Buy out."

"Buy out?"

"Yes! You set a price, and I will pay in one lump sum. After buying this manor, the Liu family has nothing to do with the Anqing government, and this manor is completely owned by the Liu family. In this way, the government can immediately get some money."

Lao Zhu nodded, with some hesitation in his expression, repeatedly calculating the pros and cons of it.

"Second," Liu Xiu raised a finger again, "Divided."

"We know what to divide."

"It's different this time." Liu Xiu continued, "I'll give the government part of the money first, for the down payment. I will pay the rest of the money in time."

Old Zhu heard the words, "Then how much profit will you pay in the future?"

Liu Xiu shook his head and said, "Not a single profit."

Lao Zhu frowned slightly, motioning for Liu Xiu to continue talking.

"In contrast, the government of Anqing government will also provide policies for my workshop, such as property rights protection, exclusive operation, etc. Similarly, I will also provide services for Anqing government, such as providing employment, paying taxes on time, and developing the economy..."

"In short, it is the strategic cooperation relationship between the Liu Family Workshop and the government of Anqing Prefecture."

Liu Xiu's eyes were full of light, and she said with a smile,

"Your Majesty, how do you choose?"

Lao Zhu was not in a hurry to speak, but looked at Liu Xiu meaningfully, and after a long time, he opened his mouth and said,

"Okay, you dare to plot against us?"

Liu Xiu was not afraid of Lao Zhu's gaze at all, she went up to meet her, and said calmly,

"If you don't do this, the Liu Family Workshop will not be able to continue."

Lao Zhu asked, "Did I tell you that your workshop is still doing the same as the Salt Industry Co., Ltd.? We also want to get a share."

"Your Majesty, you said so."

Lao Zhu nodded and said nothing more.

In fact, Lao Zhu still prefers the first option, a one-time buyout, and there is not so much trouble.

Moreover, Lao Zhu still had a thought, even if he bought it all at once, he couldn't ask the Liu family to do things after that?

Anyway, Liu's workshop is located in Anqing Mansion, isn't it at the discretion of the government?

Suddenly, Lao Zhu seemed to understand Liu Xiu's intention,

In fact, there is no difference between the two plans, because these verbal agreements can be torn up by Lao Zhu at any time. When Lao Zhu asks Liu Xiu to do something, can he not do it?

Liu Xiu naturally knew this, but he still gave us a choice...

Therefore, what Liu Xiu wanted was an attitude!

This attitude determines how large the Liu Family Workshop will develop in Wudi in the future!
