Chapter One Hundred and Ninety-One Lead Lu Shi to the Pirate Ship

"Your Highness, what do you mean? Our Lu family not only agreed to break off the engagement, but also was willing to withdraw from the suppression of industry and commerce. Isn't this enough to show our sincerity?" When he heard Li Yan's rejection, Lu Zuo's face sank. In fact, he had already felt something was wrong with Li Yan. After he put forward the conditions, he asked so much nonsense. Now, it seems that the other party is just playing tricks on himself.\

..\

\

"Hahaha~" Li Yan suddenly laughed. After a while, he stopped and said, "Sincerity? Mr. Lu, you don't feel blushing when you say this word? Now your five surnames and seven hopes are at a disadvantage. To be honest, whether you withdraw or not has any meaning to me, Li Yan, as for agreeing to break off the engagement..."

Li Yan said this, staring at Lu Zuo's eyes with a sharp look and said, "As for breaking up the engagement, it seems that I, Li Yan, are begging you. I have to settle that woman in Cui. Whether you break up or not, it actually has no impact on me at all!"

"What do you mean by King Qi? Aren't you afraid that our Lu family will hold a wedding immediately and that you will never get anyone?" Lu Zuo knew that he would never give in at this time, so he was extremely tough.

"Hold the wedding?" A harsh sneer suddenly appeared on Li Yan's face, "Then you try it, but I can guarantee that on the day before the wedding, Mr. Lu Hong and Lu would definitely die accidentally, and there would definitely be no traces of the murderer, just like the time you attacked me!"

"You..." Lu Zuo didn't expect that Li Yan would even say something about killing people, without taking into account his reputation as King Qi. Therefore, he couldn't help but speak for a moment, and his old face turned red and his beard was raised high, but he didn't know what to say?

"Your Highness, King Qi, don't be too slandered. My son Lu Hong has no grudges and no grudges with you. And you robbed his fiancée first, but now you threatened him with his life. Aren't you afraid that I will report this to Your Majesty?" At this moment, Lu You, who had been standing on the side and not speaking, suddenly spoke angrily.

..

..

Lu Hong is his only son and usually regards him as a treasure. Now that he sees Li Yan threatening his son's life, he is naturally furious.

"Hahaha~, since you are afraid that others will hurt your son, then I will ask you, my father knew that it was your Lu family who sent someone to attack me, but he could not find evidence and could not vent his anger for me. If I killed one of your Lu family's children, how would you say my father would react?" Li Yan replied without hesitation. Putting his heart in his shoes, as a father, Li Shimin had already hated Lu family very much, but as an emperor, many things were involuntarily, so he could only endure it.

Lu You was also speechless by Li Yan's sharp rebuttal. In fact, there is no right or wrong in the struggle between interest groups like theirs. No matter what means it is normal, it is normal. As for human life, it can be sacrificed at any time. Just like Wang Dulong of the Yellow River Gang, they were originally a child of their Lu family, who changed their appearance and entered the Yellow River Gang for the sake of their family. In the end, they died like a moth to the fire because of the family's orders. Unfortunately, the one who died in the end was worthless.

"Your Highness. How should this matter be settled according to your wishes?" At this moment, Lu Zuo suddenly said with red eyes. Now he is like a gambler who has lost all his chips. He has no support in front of Li Yan, because he is disdainful of what he can take out.

"Haha, if Mr. Lu said this earlier, we wouldn't have to spend so much time." Seeing the other party surrender, Li Yan finally felt relieved, lay down with a smile, picked up the hot soup next to him and took a few sips. Although it was a little cold, it was just enough to eat.

"It's very simple to break it up. You Lu came up with a reason not to harm the reputation of Cui and Miss Cui, and took the initiative to break the engagement. However, this can only be regarded as compensation for the attack on me. After breaking the engagement, we will eliminate the incident of the attack on me. In the future, I will never use this matter as an excuse to retaliate against you Lu!" Li Yan said lightly.

In fact, with his petty mind, he didn't plan to let Lu off at first, but he was dissuaded and told him to come.

i Fangchangchang, when Lu's everything was under his control, it would not be too late to take revenge, so he had to wait patiently and pretend to be generous and say so.

When Lu Zuo heard about the break-up, he only received a verbal understanding from Li Yan. He was a little anxious. All the financial pillars of Lu's family were blocked by Li Yan. Even the final land income was not found to be farmed because of the large number of recruits from the textile factory. He had no choice but to use the crude seed method proposed by Li Yan. If this continues, Lu's family will not last long.

Thinking of this, Lu Zuo couldn't help but say anxiously: "Your Highness, then now our Lu family..."

"Don't worry, I'm not finished yet!" Li Yan interrupted the other party's words, "The textile factory cannot be cancelled. The reason why it was established in Youzhou was not only to attack your Lu family, but also to have a fancy to the convenient water and land transportation and dense population there. After all, it is the end of the Grand Canal and can be directly connected with the south."

Li Yan said this, and looked at Lu Zuo and Lu You who were anxious, and then said slowly: "As for your Lu family who want to participate in the textile industry, I can agree to this and provide help in technology and resources. However, if you want to occupy one-third of the market share, you have to compete with others yourself, and you can compete as much as you can."

After Lu Zuo saw Li Yan finishing his words, he never spoke again. Obviously there was no more. Now he was anxious and stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, our Lu clan has many people and the expenses in the clan are also very huge. If you only give us a license to participate in the textile industry and cannot be guaranteed, it will almost force our Lu clan to a dead end!"

Li Yan snorted coldly: "Mr. Lu, be content in life. Your Lu family is already on the opposite side of this king, and I have no obligation to help you. The textile industry will make huge profits in the future. If it weren't for someone close to you, I wouldn't allow them to intervene. Your Lu family is an exception, and I have an additional requirement!"

"Your Highness, don't forget that although there are conflicts between our aristocratic families, if you really force our Lu family to death, then other big aristocratic families will definitely not stand by and watch!" When Lu Zuo heard that even Li Yan had to make a condition to let them enter the textile industry, he couldn't help but remind him on the spot.

"Hmph, so what about the big family? Now I can suppress you so hard, so I will never let you turn over!" Li Yan asked back with disdain. From the Lu family, he had already seen the essence of these big families. In order to protect the interests of his family, they didn't care about anything at all, let alone the life and death of the Lu family?

When Lu Zuo saw that Li Yan didn't care at all, he was even more anxious. After hesitating for a while, he finally gritted his teeth and said, "Your Highness, I, Lu, decided to give up the suppression of industry and commerce. Although you don't care, at least you can save a lot of trouble. Do you think this way can give me Lu another chance?"

Although Lu Zuo stood straight when he spoke, his tone was almost begging. At the moment of survival and demise of the family, he had to give up his dignity in exchange for a trace of sympathy from Li Yan.

In fact, Li Yan also knew that Lu's family had been forced into a desperate situation by himself and had no intention of participating in the suppression of industry and commerce anymore. Therefore, Lu Zuo's guarantee was simply empty talk, but he didn't expect to kill Lu's family now. Therefore, he hesitated deliberately and said: "Okay, for the sake of the old patriarch Lu's sincerity, I will give you a chance, but the carbide industry is absolutely not possible, and you must agree to that condition."

Not everyone can enter the carbonite industry. With the semi-official organization of the Carbonite Industry Association, a semi-official organization, it has now established an industry barrier. This is mainly because the Carbonite Industry Association has a tax reduction policy promised by Li Shimin. When members of the association mine carbonite, the cost of mining carbonite is much lower than that of non-association members. Therefore, even if others have discovered carbonite mines, there is no way to compete with the Carbonite Industry Association. In the end, they either operate in a bleak manner or close down due to losses.

"Thank you Your Highness to agree!" Seeing that Li Yan finally let go, Lu Zuo looked at Lu You next to him, and a hint of joy appeared on his face, "But please give me some advice, what opportunity do you give us and what do we need to agree to?"

"What you promised is very simple. Let's talk about it later. As for the chance you are given..." Li Yan said this, looking up at Lu Zuo, but there was an unpredictable smile on his lips. "In fact, this is really a good opportunity, and it is also a new industry. Its profit is almost comparable to that of the salt industry."

"Oh, what is that?" Lu Zuo's eyes lit up when he heard this. The fiscal revenue of their Lu family had been cut off. Now he is the leader of the Lu family in Fanyang, and his mind is almost full of money. So when he hears that the new industry can be compared with the salt industry, it is naturally a shock to the gods.

"Hehe, this industry is simply sugar-making industry, but it's very troublesome to explain. I'm not very good at jing now, so I'll change it

i You send a few business management personnel, and I will explain in detail to them at that time. In addition, you must prepare effective personnel and follow me to the south after the Chinese New Year. The key to the new industry is there." Li Yan said with a smile.

The sugar manufacturing industry is indeed a very profitable industry, but the industry has not yet started yet, and even the places to grow sugarcane have not been completely settled. It is impossible to form a scale in a short period of time. If Lu gets on his pirate ship, it will be difficult to get up to the sky if he thinks about it.

Lu Zuo naturally knew what sugar was, but in his impression, sugar should be a seasoning for wealthy families, and it was not used much, so what money could it make? However, he also knew that Li Yan was best at turning stones into gold, and he did have the ability and reputation, so he didn't ask too much, but just wrote down Li Yan's instructions in his heart and asked someone to prepare immediately after he went back.

After saying that, Li Yan turned his head and looked at the screen in the study room, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and finally asked for the additional conditions he had attached. However, as soon as this condition came out, it immediately surprised Lu Zuo and Lu You, because they did not expect that Li Yan would make such a request?
