Chapter VIII Financial Theory

So stupid, I would actually ask a few kids.

Lu Bu rubbed his temples and returned home. He was stuck on this issue for too long during this period and was thinking about this issue day and night, so he became anxious and went to the hospital.

"What's my son worried about?" Lu's father has returned. His current status in Huizhou is not bad. The whole family can live a good life, but it is unlikely to go further. Therefore, he has been more concerned about Lu Bu's academic issues in the past two years, especially after discovering that Lu Bu has the knowledge that most children of this age do not have, but are more inclined toward military generals in his thoughts. He wanted to regain this shortcoming.

Lu Bu still agrees with this father. Although he looks gentle and delicate and cowardly on weekdays, when he first came to Huizhou, Lu Bu had seen his father with a kitchen knife to chase and chop the two streets of Qingsie who bullied his mother with a kitchen knife. Unfortunately, his sword skills were a little worse. If Lu Bu had no strength, he would have cut all five or six Qingsie in his hand.

It was also during that time that this seemingly quiet man gained a foothold in Huizhou City with his unscrupulous personality in Huizhou City.

In this chaotic year and a place close to the front line like Huizhou, it is not that the government will not bully you if you are backers. You must first have an attitude.

Compared to the philosophy of life of the old farmer's father in the last simulation of the world, Lu Bu is obviously more satisfied with his current father.

"Father, my child wants to make a living. According to my father, what kind of business is the most profitable?" Lu Bu asked at Lu's father.

The money-making businesses in Huizhou, such as silk and porcelain, are basically made up by the county magistrate's relatives or his confidant relatives, but other than that, are there any other ways to make money?

Although Lu Bu had lifetime experience, he basically had experience in the border army, including food and grass allocation, conquest, distribution of troops, and how to allocate troops when defending the city, when it is suitable for fighting, and when it is suitable for defending. Lu Bu has no problem with these questions, but he has to ask about the way to make money, then... All Lu Bu could think of was to use the government to do some money-making business.

But the family did not have this background. My father's status in Huizhou could make their whole family full, have no worries about food and clothing, and even have some surplus to support some servants. These are all the contributions of Lu's father, but to support Lu Bu to pull up an army, let alone whether Lu's father would agree, whether he could do it is a big question.

"Why do you care about such common things? Although your family is not rich, it is enough to make you have no worries about food and clothing. Why should you care too much about those things outside of your body? My son might as well read books well. As long as he can read good books, he would not be able to be a marquis or a prime minister in the future, which would be much better than being involved in these common things."

Although Lu's father was different from most literati who had seen Lu Bu, he had a sense of toughness that ordinary Daqian literati did not have and some of the ruthlessness of Han literati, he also had the problems of most literati... He was noble and inferior in everything but had high school education. This was what his father taught him, and he advocated the feeling of strategizing, looked down on military generals and vendors, and often commented on the current situation of the dynasty and satirized the Daqian royal family.

Although Lu Bu didn't like the Daqian royal family very much, he just wanted to do it alone. On the other person's territory, Lu Bu didn't think about cursing others. If it is useful, wouldn't it be better to directly scold the Hu people and scold them all to death?

Sometimes Lu Bu doesn't quite understand these problems of literati in this era. Although there are more people who are literate, there are even fewer people who are capable.

Lu Bu's talent is not bad in his studies, but it is not good either. He has two lifetimes of experience, so many things are easier to understand than ordinary people, but there is also a problem. His thinking is relatively solid. In terms of military tactics and martial arts, Lu Bu is close to the extreme, and he also has his own set of ideas in governance. This idea is difficult to change, which is also the reason why Lu's father thinks he goes astray.

To be honest, when it comes to Lu Bu's point, it is very difficult to pull his thinking back and go in other directions, but Lu's father was worried that Lu Bu would become a warrior if he continued like this, so he persuaded Lu Bu whenever he had the opportunity and used various methods to persuade him. His philosophy was to let Lu Bu find out that he had taken the wrong path and walk back by himself, rather than forcing Lu Bu to do something. This is also a method that Lu Bu is more acceptable.

To be honest, if Lu’s father directly hit him with a stick and forced him, it would make Lu Bu even more annoyed and he wouldn’t have to do anything, but the relationship would not be as harmonious as it is now.

Although both parties are father and son in physical terms, in fact, according to the actual age, Lu Bu felt that this relationship had to be adjusted and then added to another generation. Now Lu’s father is tempted by nature, and Lu Bu feels like playing with his son. Of course, it is impossible to really treat others as his son.

Seeing Lu Bu showing impatience in habit, Lu’s father felt a little moved. It was rare that his son was interested in things other than martial arts. Perhaps this was the opportunity to bring his son back on track.

Now, he was thinking about how to make money. After thinking about all the methods of making money in his mind, he realized: "According to the father's opinion, if you want to make money... uh... make money, it is best to have thousands of hectares of fertile land. Of course, it is difficult for our family to do this."

The status of the Lu family also caught up with the lack of people in Huizhou. In addition, Lu's father is not weak in nature, but dozens of acres of land are already the limit, at most hundreds of acres. If there are more, there will be people who are unwilling to do so. Lu's father emphasizes that a gentleman loves money and obtains it well, how capable he has, and how much land he encircles.

Making money by relying on the ground is also the way most people make money.

Lu Bu naturally understood that he didn't say anything, but just looked at his father.

"In addition, there are some good businesses. Look at the Su family weaving workshop in Huizhou City and Gao family porcelain. Although my father doesn't know how rich their families are, they must be very rich. However, the merchant family is useless, no matter how rich they are, my son doesn't need to be envious. As for how they make a profit... Most of the two transactions in Huizhou are decided by them. Even if others want something else, they will naturally make money." Lu's father said in the end.

As for how much money the two families had, Lu's father didn't know, and he didn't bother to know that although the merchant families were rich, it was difficult to enter the official career. Although their families were poor, they were innocent. As long as they had the ability, they could become generals and ministers at any time. No matter how rich those merchant families were, they were still a low-key family. If they wanted to enter the court, it would be harder than reaching the sky.

"Just like the county magistrate, if you want money to help the victims or enrich your military equipment, if you ask these two families for it, they will give it to you even if they are reluctant to leave, and it will be a small amount." Lu's father said proudly.
