Dressed as the cannon fodder who died prematurely, I will marry the villain in anger

At this time, Lu Songli didn't know the emotions of Ji Wuyin's master and servant. She was making the final calculation in her mind.

They earned 90 shi of grain in Nanyang this time. Calculated according to the market price, the 50 shi shipped back to Liaodong County was calculated as 160 shi per bucket based on the current grain price, and the 40 shi left in Luoyang was calculated as 120 shi. Calculated in terms of dollars, this is equivalent to them earning 40 million taels of silver, minus the [-] taels given to Caobang, and the operating expenses of the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce.After all, the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce also dispatched many people, all of whom wanted to eat.

She only collected 20 taels for this operating fee.

In the end, Lu Songli decided to take out 60 taels of silver as dividends.

Just as she finished her calculations, her subordinates came down to report that Lan Bingrong and others had arrived one after another.

Liaodong Chamber of Commerce Building, meeting hall on the second floor

Lan Bingrong, Geng Yuan and other eight people had already arrived. Seeing that Lu Songli hadn't arrived yet, they couldn't help but start whispering.

"I don't know why you called us here this time?"

"It should be a good thing."

"I heard that Manager Wu took a team of people from the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce to Luoyang."

"Yesterday, the docks of Fangxian and Anshi were full of Caobang's grain-carrying ships."

"I've also heard that the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce and the Ji's Company have joined forces to stir up trouble in Nanyang, killing everyone in the area, and overthrowing all the local grain merchants' chambers."

Hearing this, everyone was amazed.

Lu Songli came in at this time.

She looked around and smiled, "Are you all here?"

"Yes, President Lu is calling, can we come?"

"Okay, no more nonsense, let me just say it directly. Everyone should have heard to some extent that our Liaodong Chamber of Commerce has made a fortune in Nanyang. I won't go into details. I'll call you here this time. , I just want to settle your money and this dividend."

Lu Songli's words made everyone present feel excited.

Lu Songli revealed to them that the amount of funds used in this transaction was 500 million taels, and their Liaodong forces accounted for 300 million.

Of the 300 million taels, the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce invested 150 million taels. She raised 120 million taels from Lan Bingrong, Geng Yuan and others. Qin Heng invested 20 taels on behalf of the Qin family. She and Qin Sheng took 10 taels to make up the whole. .

Now, their Liaodong forces have received supplies worth 120 million taels, making a net profit of 60 taels after deducting costs.

Equivalent to, for every 1 taels invested, the dividend is 2000 taels.

After calculating clearly, Lu Songli asked someone to bring the silver and settled the money on the spot.

Holding the silver, Geng Yuan was a little confused. He invested 10 taels, and within two months, he got 2 taels?Isn't this deal too good to be done?

He glanced at Lan Bingrong next to him. This guy invested 15 million and received 3 taels, which was more than him.

They took risks when investing, but the returns were actually high.If the 10 taels were lent to the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce, he would only earn 6000 taels in interest in a year.It has only been two months now and I have earned 2 taels.

After all the money was distributed, Lu Songli asked, "Has everyone confirmed that everything is correct?"

"President Lu, we have checked them all and there are no mistakes."

Lu Songli nodded and said, "That's good. This stage is over now. You can go back."

"President Lu, next time the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce encounters a situation where funds cannot be collected, just say so. Others don't know, but I, Old Geng, will definitely donate generously." Geng Yuan immediately expressed his loyalty.

Others were not to be outdone and said, "Yes, President Lu, if you want to ask us for money, don't be polite."

They found out that by following the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce, they had meat to eat.

Next, if there is still such an opportunity, they promise to fight wherever they point it out without any hesitation.

Seeing how active they were, Lu Songli smiled and said, "Okay, I'll come back to you next time if I don't get enough money."

The next day, the imperial edict finally arrived regarding Lu Desheng being selected as the governor of Pingzhou due to his meritorious service.

What followed was the imperial edict to depose Shi Tao.

At this time, the incense table had already been placed in the backyard of the Liaodong County Sheriff's Mansion.

The official who came to announce the edict was reciting the imperial edict loudly: "Qin Tian has carried the emperor, and the edict says: Since ancient times, the sages have relied on the assistance of talents to govern the country. I have a capable minister, Lu Desheng, who has both talent and virtue, outstanding ability, and practical application. During his tenure, he worked hard to govern. He who shares your worries and offers advice to Nanyang, who has made great contributions to the country and won the trust of the people is truly a rare and capable minister. Now, in accordance with the decree of heaven, I hereby reward him. From now on, I will appoint him as the governor of Pingzhou! Qin! Thank you!"

The Lu family members shouted in unison, "Long live my emperor!"

After receiving the imperial edict, Lu Desheng exchanged a few words with the father-in-law who delivered the edict, and then left the rest to his eldest son and Manager Chen.

Lu Zhiyuan and Manager Chen led the group of people who were delivering the order to rest together.

Lu Songli smiled and congratulated her father, "Dad, congratulations, congratulations -" When the angel came, she was already on duty, so they welcomed the imperial edict together.

Lu Desheng smiled reservedly and said, "We are happy together."

Humph, now he is the biggest in Pingzhou, no one dares to let him go out and run around on a rainy day, right?

And in Pingzhou, no one dares to let him be a low-level kid anymore, right?Hum hum——

Jiang didn't care about the father and son, and announced that there was a good news in the family, and that the servants would receive double the monthly salary this month.Then, she ordered her servants to put a few firecrackers on the gate, and at the same time, she moved a small frame of copper coins out and scattered them around. Whoever picked it up would be the one who got it, and they were all happy.

It was also at this time that the common people learned that Mr. Lu had been promoted. They felt happy from the bottom of their hearts. Sincere congratulations came from their mouths, and the atmosphere was lively and festive.

Jiangzhou, Linchuan County

Xie Bai found Xie Zhan and handed him a letter, "Master, something is not right."

Xie Zhan: "Why are you so panicked?"

"Master, please read the letter, I can't explain clearly." He was a little overwhelmed after running all the way.

The letter was written by Zuo Anmin. It said that Zhang Xian asked for credit for Lu Desheng. After consideration, the emperor actually agreed. The imperial edict to confer Lu Desheng as the governor of Pingzhou had already been issued.And with it came an imperial edict to depose Shi Tao.

The letter was delivered to Nandi, but Xie Zhan was not in Nandi at this time, and the matter was very important. Xie Baigang had just escorted a batch of grain back, and without caring about anything, he took the letter and went straight to Linchuan County.

After reading the letter, Xie Zhan felt that he needed to calm down.

As he walked outside the door, dusk fell, and the late autumn night wind brought with it a hint of chill, and his mind became clearer and clearer.

It is foreseeable that Lu Songli will take Pingzhou.After all, Liaodong County is too small, which limits their development.

He has also been thinking recently about when and how the other party will expand its territory.

In his opinion, it would be difficult for Lu Songli to seek Pingzhou with Shi Tao, who was the governor of Pingzhou for ten years.

But he didn't expect that Lu Songli would use both methods, and his appetite would be so big that he would swallow up the entire territory of Pingzhou in one go.

What he didn't expect was that Zhang Xian was willing to give up this huge credit. It seemed that the relationship between the Lu family and Zhang Xian was stronger than he expected.

What surprised him the most was Shi Tao's capsize.

Shi Tao was a man of mediocre ability, but he excelled in his loyalty to the Song family.It was precisely because of this that the late emperor kept him in the position of governor of Pingzhou.

He always felt that Shi Tao would not capsize.

After all, if he is not capable, how can he still be loyal?

A person only needs to be loyal to reach a high position. No matter what, this person will always wear the skin of loyalty, right?

What Xie Zhan doesn't understand is, hasn't Shi Tao done a good job over the years?

Now, who will tell him what Shi Tao did to make Song Mo unable to stand him?
