In the evening, Li Mansion
Li Fugui and Cao Fanghua led a few servants to the door to welcome Mu Jin and others.
Li Motang also went with his parents to greet him. Seeing Mu Bai coming back, he breathed a sigh of relief. They were destined to meet.
Mu Jin and his companions were warmly received by Li Fugui's family.
At the welcoming banquet, Mu Jin also met the famous Cao Jingzhi
As expected of a great scholar
When I learned that Cao Jingzhi had resigned as the president of Songhe University, I had no idea.
When Mu Jin heard Cao Fanghua talking about asking Fugui to build a private school for his father, she became more interested.
Why build a private school? A college as big as ours is just in need of such a great figure.
It's a bit far, and I don't know if people are willing to
During this period of time, I asked indirectly
The welcoming banquet ended happily.
In the capital, the New Year is approaching
However, the commercial street did not reduce the number of customers because of the snow, on the contrary, it increased.
Liu Qing has experience as a shopkeeper and is a smart person. Under the guidance of Lu Yong and Mu Jin, he can now stand on his own.
What's more, Longsheng is always there to check the situation. With Longsheng in the open and his own people in the dark, there is nothing to worry about.
Mu Jin has always been aware of the dynamics of Jiangnan Commercial Street, and she also knows that Mu Bai, that silly boy, will rush back to Beijing to spend the New Year with her.
So, Mu Jin made a bold decision
This year I took my whole family to Jiangnan
The popularity of the commercial street caused a lot of discussion in the palace, and the emperor also heard about it.
When did such a piece of land appear on my territory? How come I didn't notice it? It's such a profitable place, so I should pay a lot of taxes.
The emperor had no time to be happy
The lackey around him immediately solved the puzzle
"Your Majesty, this land is fifty miles outside the capital. It was originally a wasteland, but later refugees were allowed to live there and cultivate the land.
Now that place is called Taoyuan Village. Some villagers dug hot springs in the mountains, which led to the commercial streets behind it.
Wasteland, fifty miles outside the capital
The emperor figured it out and was also depressed.
Why do all the good things get taken away by Longsheng?
At the celebration banquet, he walked away in anger. Longsheng used the real money he had given him in exchange for tens of millions of acres of wasteland outside the capital, and demanded absolute say in that land.
Let me take back the reward to Xiao He and spare his life.
I knew about that wasteland at first, a place where even birds wouldn't shit, and I didn't know what Longsheng wanted to do with it.
For the sake of money, he agreed to Longsheng's request. As long as he didn't give Longsheng money to support the army, he would be fine.
Having absolute say over that piece of land is in disguise an admission that those places belong to Longsheng.
I don't know what kind of luck Longsheng has, with Yingkelai making a fortune in front and a commercial street making tens of thousands of dollars in the back.
The emperor was jealous, but Longsheng had already spread the news that the wasteland outside the city was his in the Beijing circle. Anyone with a little status knew that it was Longsheng's territory.
So the emperor hated it so much that he dared not take it back openly.
"As far as I know, none of Longsheng and his peasants know how to do business. What's going on this time?"
The young eunuch hesitated for a moment, then answered the emperor's question.
"According to gossip, the owner of that commercial street is surnamed Mu."
"Mu, is there anyone with this surname in the capital?"
"Your Majesty, no."
"Then dig them up and use them for my own purposes. If soft tactics don't work, I'll use force. I must cut off Longsheng's financial resources."
"Your Majesty, have you forgotten that the Ninth Princess smashed the first floor of the reception hall, and that person's surname was also Mu?"
The eunuch reminded the emperor awkwardly
