Chapter 739 The Governor Smiles
Wu Ren, Young Master Ji, Gu Huaisheng and several other smart people noticed this scene.
They couldn't help but look at each other. It was really like 'the governor's smile can make life and death unpredictable'. They didn't know what misfortune would happen to Dali and Xianbei next.
On the other side, Wang Yun was in a bad mood as he listened to his subordinates' reports.
As soon as the Qingzhou District venue opened, almost everyone in the Three States Free Trade Zone flocked there in the past two days.
Looking at the solemn expressions of Wang Yun, Tuoba Jin and others, Cao Huating lowered his head to hide the smile in his eyes.
Tuoba Jin was the first to say, "We can't go on like this." Pingzhou has completely replaced them by doing this. They set up this three-state free trade zone just to help Pingzhou.
"Indeed." Zheng Lingfeng nodded heavily.
Tuoba Jin looked at Wang Yun, then at Zheng Lingfeng, and asked, "What should we do then? Should we go to their house?"
Wang Yun and Zheng Lingfeng exchanged a glance. "Going to his house? How shameless!"
When they opened the casino and brothel before, Zhang Xian and others came to them, and they used the peace treaty as an excuse. Now it's time to rely on their own abilities. If they can't defeat the Pingzhou people, will they cheat? But even if they do, the Pingzhou people won't tolerate them, right?
Tuoba Jin racked his brains but couldn't come up with any solution. He glanced at Wang Yun who was frowning, and thought to himself that it was still the people in Pingzhou who had a way. They came from behind and took the upper hand in no time. The outstanding children trained by the big families like Dali couldn't do anything to Pingzhou.
It's a pity that the people of Pingzhou are too hostile to the Xianbei. Otherwise, it would be great if the Xianbei and Pingzhou could cooperate to encroach on and divide up the Dali together.
Wang Yun made the decision, then said fiercely, "Then let's do it like the Qingzhou Casino!"
Zheng Lingfeng thought for a moment, "You mean?"
Wang Yun said, "Qingzhou Casino has card games and mahjong rooms, so we'll do that too!"
Tuoba Jin: “This——” Isn’t it a bit shameless?
Wang Yun said directly, "Let's decide it this way."
Pingzhou likes to be innovative, right? As long as they come up with a hot project, they will follow suit!
At this time, Tuoba Jin thought for a moment and asked, "Do you want to build a racecourse? If so, we Xianbei will provide you with good horses."
The Xianbei don't have much else, but they have a lot of fine war horses! With their horses, they can surely crush the Qingzhou racecourse!
"But can the Qingzhou Racecourse make money?" Tuoba Jin thought for a moment and added.
This was also his doubt, as the odds offered by Qingzhou Racecourse were as high as forty to one.
In a horse race, there are forty-five participating horses, and only one winning horse can win the money. The bettor will receive the money back at a ratio of forty to one.
Zheng Lingfeng said, "Something that can make money, like a horse race, the total amount of bets is 90,000 Pingzhou treasure notes."
At two yuan per bet, that's 45,000 bets, which is possible.
"The total amount is 90,000 yuan, and the average number is 2,000 yuan. The average profit after a horse race is more than 10,000 yuan." What's more, the total amount bet on a horse race should be more than 90,000 yuan.
"If Qingzhou Racecourse does something secretly, it will make even more money."
Wang Yun's eyes lit up when Zheng Lingfeng calculated this. Just as he was about to make the final decision, Cao Huating spoke up. He looked hesitant and said, "I have a plan. Should I tell you?"
Wang Yun knew that the young man in front of him was a Han Chinese, currently serving under Tuoba Jin, and had good abilities, so he admired him quite a bit.
So Wang Yun nodded in response to his words and said, "Just say whatever you want to say."
Cao Huating said, "Lord Wang, it's like this..."
As Cao Huating spoke more, the eyes of Wang Yun and others became brighter.
Pingzhou, Jinxian Wharf
"Master Yao, we have arrived in Pingzhou. Please disembark."
Then, the people on the boat got off one after another.
A quarter of an hour later, the Yao family members got off the boat smoothly. It was already the turn of spring and summer, and Pingzhou was still a little chilly at this time. The Yao family members were weak after being exiled, and they couldn't help but wrap their cloaks tightly.
After all, they were rescued from the place of exile, and they had very little luggage. Even the clothes they were wearing were bought for them by the people arranged by Pingzhou to pick them up.
Upon arriving in Pingzhou, Yao Songwen was overcome with a mixture of emotions. He hadn't expected that after his family was exiled, it would be Lü Songli who rescued him. He had previously fallen seriously ill in exile, and if the people of Pingzhou hadn't come to him and treated him in time, he would have died.
While Yao Songwen was sighing, Lu Desheng and his followers strolled over leisurely. "Master Yao, long time no see."
Yao Songwen was surprised to see Lu Desheng right after getting off the boat. "Lord Lu? It's been five or six years since we last met, right?"
Lu Desheng counted with his fingers and hissed, "Got it."
"I can't believe how time flies, but you still look as charming and elegant as ever." Yao Songwen recalled that he was promoted to the position of Chief Justice of the Dali Temple thanks to Lu Desheng's push.
Therefore, Yao Songwen still had a good impression of Lu Desheng, not to mention that it was his daughter who rescued his entire family this time. Otherwise, the Yao family would have no idea when they could turn things around, leave the exile, and return to the heart of Chang'an.
Lu Desheng touched his face and said with a smile, "I'm getting old." He is still a handsome middle-aged uncle, hehe.
"Congratulations, Lord Lu. Lord Lu has surpassed her father. Now, under her leadership, Pingzhou has occupied half of the country." Yao Songwen said. He had previously wondered whether the Yao family would have a chance to return to the center of Chang'an after Xie Zhan's death. Now it seems that his fate lies in Pingzhou rather than Dali.
"No, no." Upon hearing this, the smile on Lu Desheng's face became even wider. He liked people who could talk.
I never realized that Yao Songwen’s voice was quite nice before, hehe.
At this time, another follower of Lu Desheng came over and said, "Master Yao, the prefecture has sent a carriage to pick you up."
Lu Desheng glanced at the Yao family members not far away and said to Yao Songwen, "It's cold, please get your family in the car."
Yao Songwen said gratefully, "Thank you for your trouble."
Soon, all the Yao family members got on the carriage, and Lu Desheng invited Yao Songwen to ride in the same carriage with him.
Ten carriages began to drive on the wide official road. Lu Desheng's carriage was in the front, and the second carriage was carrying Yao Songwen's mother and two lovely younger generations.
Yao Songwen's daughter asked, "Grandmother, mother, is that Master Lu Desheng?"
Yao Songwen's wife nodded and said, "It's him."
When we were in Chang'an before, although the two families didn't interact much, they both lived in Chang'an, so at least they knew each other.
There is a saying that time never defeats beauty. In the past four or five years, time has been quite kind to the big man Lu Desheng.
Madam Yao sighed and said, "He has a good daughter."
As the governor of Pingzhou, Lü Songli, whose father was Lü Desheng, had an easy life. It should be said that both the Qin and Lü families had an easy life, after all, when one person prospers, the whole family prospers.
Old Lady Yao suddenly thought that the Qin and Lu families were also exiled families, and their Yao family was also exiled. Now that they have come to Pingzhou, will their future days also get better and better like the Qin and Lu families?
Yao Songwen's daughter certainly understood what her grandmother meant. "Mom, do you think Governor Lu will ever be able to take that position?"
When Lü Songli, a woman, became the governor of Pingzhou, she and her sisters found it incredible. But in fact, under her leadership, Pingzhou has developed better and better, and now it can even stand on equal footing with the Dali Xianbei.
Old Madam Yao said leisurely, "She has a very broad mind and a very good vision."
An extraordinary woman may not be unable to reach the top in the future.
As she spoke, she looked at her granddaughters beside her. Once they settled down, she would have to let her granddaughters learn some skills from her grandsons.
