Chapter 114 The Furious Lu Tang

Compared to having, I prefer to dominate and use other people’s money to do things for myself. I am more comfortable than Tang Yi’s financial management view next door.

Tang Yi’s three original sources of wealth were wineries, paper shops, and furniture. When rescuing refugees, Tang Yi said that if he could do it, he would make a big profit. The facts prove that not only did he make a profit, but he would also make a big profit!

Relying on the labor force absorbed from refugees, the original workshops expanded exponentially, and three new workshops were built. The six workshops were all booming, with an average value of more than 100,000 taels per workshop, and are still expanding rapidly. Tang Yi owned half of the shares, which is 300,000 taels.

Due to the large number of merchants and gentry families involved in the Canal Piao No. Tang Yi's shares were only 15%, but workers occupied one level, Qian Fatty, Lei Qi and others occupied half of it, plus Zhou Qinyun's 25%, it was already more than half. In addition, Tang Yi was the founder again, and all the merchants involved followed their orders and were obedient.

Under the canal ticket number, there are warehouses, fleets, pawn shops, etc., all of which are added up, almost 500,000 taels.

Tang Yi explained the accounts to his father one by one, and Tang Xiucai calculated silently.

"No, Yi'er, this is only half, and there is still half?"

Tang Yi didn't say anything, but pointed at the ground.

"What does it mean? Buried?" Tang Xiucai exclaimed.

"The child is talking about real estate!" Tang Yi simply said to his father: "When the canal is not cleared, there are wasteland along the way, which is not worth a penny. However, the canal is built, and the land price will increase by ten times a hundred times. The child bought the land in advance. Now, it is 700,000 to 800,000 taels. If it is in a few years, it will not be impossible to increase to 100,000 taels."

"Don't rise, I can't stand it!"

Tang Xiucai was completely defeated. When he was a master, he knew that Taicang Prefecture was known as wealthy, and his budget was only over 50,000 taels per year. Suzhou Prefecture is almost the richest place in the world. It has six counties and one state under its jurisdiction, and its disposable wealth is only 200,000 to 300,000 taels.

My baby son has been struggling for a year and has created five Suzhou Prefectures. What a monster and how crazy this is!

No wonder I don’t want to let myself know, it’s scary.

"Dad, in fact, I can't calculate that. Take Southeast as an example. There are at least hundreds of merchants with millions of dollars, and they all have liquid cash. Not to mention real estate, real estate, shops, etc., the Wang family and the Xu family alone cost tens of millions of taels of silver. In comparison, the child's family's wealth is not good at making any move!" Tang Yi explained hard.

"No!" Tang Xiucai was smart and shook his head like a rattle. He said fiercely: "Don't think of fooling me. The Wang and Xu family have money. It has been accumulated for many years, and it has been accumulated from generation to generation. What about you, you are just stepping on a cotton bag and reaching the sky in one step. Dad is so confused!"

As Tang Xiucai said, his facial features gathered together, staring at his son miserably. Tang Yi was a little scared when he was staring, and to the point of his heart, he was also a little worried.

Although he tried to be fair when designing the system so that all parties could accept it, according to the current momentum, in just a few years, it was not a dream to gather tens of millions of silver around the Canal.

There are so many pairs of red eyes around, and I wish I could eat them alive and eat them all. Not to mention the distance, although the weaving bureau was severely damaged, the court had sent new eunuchs to go south soon. In addition, the gentry and tribe in the southeast are easy to mess with. These people secretly had connections with the Japanese pirates, so they dared not do anything.

The situation in front of us is like everyone is on the same car, and the rapidly expanding canal ticket number is like a fat man with a 200-pound pound coming up. No matter how he smiles or says good things, he will occupy other people's position and even squeezes others down. How can he not attract envy, jealousy and hatred?

"Yi'er, don't say anything to him. Your father is a scholar. He climbed into the inspection position with your light. But he is only a ninth rank. You are not bad at your abilities but you are too young. You may not be seen by others. I'm afraid that we both can't keep our big family business!"

Tang Xiucai's concerns were definitely reasonable. Tang Yi calculated slightly and sighed: "Dad, the forces we can rely on now are first of all, our uncle Wang Jun, and secondly, my master, Mr. Jingchuan and Shangquan Gong, as well as the Jinyiwei, the governor Chen, and I am a fake Xinxue scholar. However... if we count, these powers are not reliable!"

"Yes!" Tang Xiucai nodded: "Let me talk about Lord Chen first. He is good to our father and son. Unfortunately, his term of office is coming soon. I heard that Mr. Xu admired him very much. In addition, he was born in a Hanlin family, so he must be promoted next."

As the saying goes, it is better to be in charge of the current official position than to be in charge. Chen Menghe is the prefect of Taicang. With him under his care, it is too convenient to do things. If he leaves, what might happen if he changes to a prefect!

Tang Yi couldn't help but raise his heart and said slowly: "Although Mr. Jingchuan comes out of the mountain, he is really kind to his children. Don't forget that a gentleman can deceive his way, he can't fight against a bunch of villains."

"Mr. Shangquan is old and just wants to live a life of life. If we bother him, we will feel sorry for it." Tang Xiucai added.

The rest is Wang Jun who is in charge of Fujian and Zhejiang provinces, with a high position and a powerful position. Unfortunately, his energy is all focused on fighting against the Japanese. To be honest, the Wang family is in the southeast, and Jiajing just has no available talents, so he has to use him. Maybe when will Wang Jun be taken down.

The Jinyiwei is powerful, but they are just jackals and beasts that eat people and don’t spit bones. If they have the chance, they will never mind swallowing Tang Yi.

As for the disciples of Xinxue, it is even more illusory and has little use...

Someone wants to ask, these are not reliable, wouldn’t Tang Yi be in vain? It’s not like that, being able to get in touch with these people is already a great success for Tang Yi.

The premise of a 4-liang effort to achieve a tremendous pound is that you have 800 pounds of strength to be able to distribute it. If you only have 4-liang strength, find a corner to squat!

After all, the Tang family’s father and son are too weak, and no one can tell the future. Those big men can be used to scare people, but if you really hope they can survive and die, you won’t be able to do it. You even have to beware of them being secretly stumbling.

It seems that cooking oil is booming, but the Tang family father and son felt a strong crisis.

"Oh, dad is really useless. A mere inspector, sesame and mung beans are not considered a father. I am ashamed of being a father!"

Tang Yi frowned. Although the inspector was pitiful, the small official could also be bigger!

"Dad, is General Lu Tong and General Lu still training the new army?"

"That's right, it's been two or three months since I chose refugee children, and they look a little bit."

"That's great!" Tang Yi suddenly slapped his thigh and smiled, "Dad, the Japanese pirates are in rebellion, the army is the most popular. Let's start with this. With a strong army, who dares to underestimate us!"

Although Tang Xiucai didn't know the reason why the gun came out of power, as a patrol inspector, he had the power to command the militia. The 200-mile salt iron pond was under his rule, and he could really help him by relying on the canal.

After a night of discussion, the father and son washed their faces with dark circles the next day, and headed straight for Lu Tong's camp with dark circles on their faces.

Lu Tong's camp was the camp for refugees. After reconstruction, the tents were replaced with neat adobe houses. In the middle was a huge schoolyard, with thousands of young and strong soldiers running and practicing assassination, and they were very busy. However, as the commander Lu Tong's face was pitch black and his tiger eyes were spitting fire.

In front of him, there was a row of carriages, which were loaded with many armor and weapons, but they were all rusted, worms and rats bite, and they were extremely broken. Lu Tong grabbed a few flower guns and used force with his arms, and all of them were broken. He picked up another pair of armor and tore them into pieces without a few strokes.

Finally, when he picked up a musket, Lu Tong's nose became even more irritated. It turned out that the barrel was rotten, and only the words "Made in Yongle Nian" could be vaguely seen in the buttstock.

"Damn, this thing might have been fighting Mongolia with Master Cheng! I used it to fight Japanese pirates, but they could think of it!" He threw the musket hard and suddenly cracked into three sections.

Lu Tong looked up angry and happened to see the Tang family father and son coming. Without saying a word, he rushed up in a few steps, grabbed Tang Yi's chest with his hand, almost lifting him up. Tang Yi couldn't breathe and his face turned red.

"Hey, General Lu, the dog hasn't offended you?" Tang Xiucai said angrily.

Lu Tong also realized that he was too much, so he hurriedly let go, and said hatefully: "It's not Lord Wang, but your uncle, I'm confused!"

Tang Yi took a breath and said in confusion: "What the hell is going on?"

Lu Tong grabbed Tang Yi and flew to the front of the carriage, pointed at the junk all over his eyes, and said angrily: "Look, just give us these things, let alone fight Japanese pirates, you can't even kill birds!"

Tang Xiucai also ran over and looked at him and shook his head.

"General Lu, didn't you say that the Governor attaches great importance to you? How could he fool things? Are you below..."

"No!" Lu Tong waved his hand and said angrily: "You don't know, Mr. Tang, recently, a group of 'wolf soldiers' were transferred from Huguang and Guangxi. Everyone said that they can fight and have unparalleled courage and can use wolves to destroy Japanese pirates. Why waste good things on us waste!"

"It's so shameless to be a man of the Han family to rely on the protection of the wolf soldiers!"
