This Mr. Lu didn't care about his feelings at all, and his eyes became even colder.
"I asked you to step back, don't you understand?"
"I……"
Chen San gritted his teeth and wanted to say something more.
But in the end, he nodded with unwillingness and resentment.
"Okay, I'm leaving!"
Chen San squeezed out three words through his teeth, and at the end he glared at Zhou Peirong fiercely before turning around and walking out of the yard.
Ignoring the resentful Chen San, Mr. Lu smiled and raised his chin at Zhou Peirong.
"Well, now we can get down to business!"
"This paper-making technology, you hand it over or you don't hand it over."
"If you want to be a white wolf with nothing, you can take my papermaking skills from me for nothing. Do you think it's possible?"
Zhou Peirong sneered and looked at Mr. Lu as if he were looking at a fool.
"you……"
Master Lu was choked by Zhou Peirong, and his face instantly turned cold.
But before he could say anything else, Zhou Peirong took the lead and spoke again coldly.
"Looking at you, you should be the county magistrate's steward or master!"
"I'm not going to tell you whether you are qualified to talk to me. I just want to ask you one question."
"If someone wanted to take your hard work away from you without giving anything, would you agree?"
"Okay, don't waste your time and breath here."
Mr. Lu obviously had no intention of reasoning with Zhou Peirong.
Seeing how dishonest Zhou Peirong was, he simply stopped pretending and directly chose to confront Zhou Peirong.
"Let me tell you the truth, the great master is determined to win your papermaking skills."
"Today, you hand over the papermaking skills and that's all. If you don't hand over..."
"Then your fate will be the same as what Chen San said, and you will be unable to gain a foothold in Liming County from now on!"
"Then I'll tell you the truth!"
Zhou Peirong's eyes were full of amusement, but he was smiling instead of angry.
"You, it's really too late for you to come here. I sold this papermaking technology to someone else!"
"So I'm sorry, even if I want to trade with the big master, I can't do it."
"What? Sold? To whom?"
Mr. Lu's eyes flashed.
He obviously did not expect that Zhou Peirong had already sold the papermaking technology.
But soon, Master Lu's expression returned to normal.
"So what if you sell your papermaking skills?"
"In the territory of Liming County, no matter whose hands the papermaking technology is in, the great master can get it back!"
"It's you..."
Mr. Lu slowly took a few steps forward, speechless and shaking his head repeatedly.
"Without the art of papermaking, you will have no use value to the great master."
"It would be fine if the eldest master successfully obtained the paper-making technique, but if he really did not obtain the paper-making technique..."
"Then from now on, let alone establishing yourself in Liming County, you just want to survive..."
Mr. Lu did not continue talking about the rest.
But Zhou Peirong could figure out what he wanted to say next even if he thought with his toes.
Sure enough, he said in his heart!
No matter in which era, as long as people have power, there will be no one to supervise it.
Then the world will become extremely dark, making the living space of ordinary people smaller and smaller.
Fortunately, I was wiser and chose a good backer for myself.
otherwise.
I may not be able to get through this level on my own.
Taking a deep breath, Zhou Peirong smiled faintly, and then shook his head lightly.
"Master Lu, don't speak too early, and don't speak too fullly."
"How can you be sure that the person who bought my paper-making skills will not be able to defeat the county magistrate!"
"Um?"
Master Lu was obviously shocked by Zhou Peirong's words.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Zhou Peirong carefully, up and down.
After a long while, Mr. Lu finally asked tentatively.
"Then who is it that bought your paper-making skills?"
"it's me!"
Before Zhou Peirong could reply, a sweet and melodious voice sounded outside the hospital.
What followed immediately was Chen San's shout and the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.
Then, there was Chen San's scream.
"Brother Zhou, my little sister took the liberty of coming to visit. I hope Brother Zhou won't blame me for disturbing you!"
The sweet voice sounded again.
Accompanied by a jingle of jingles, a beautiful figure has passed Mr. Lu and arrived in front of Zhou Peirong.
Who is this person if not Jin Yueru!
Seeing Jin Yueru coming to him, Zhou Peirong quickly raised his hands and bowed to Jin Yueru.
"If Miss Jin comes to my humble home, I will certainly welcome you. How can I blame you?"
"It's just that you saw it, Miss Jin. Now I have a bad customer to deal with."
"Please, Miss Jin, please come with me, Yulian, to the room and stay for a while."
"After I finish dealing with the bad guests, I'll treat Miss Jin properly!"
"No need!"
Jin Yueru shook her head lightly, and then waved her hand to the accompanying middle-aged scribe.
The middle-aged scribe understood and immediately stepped forward, staring at Mr. Lu with cold eyes.
"Are you the magistrate of this county?"
The middle-aged scribe had no expression on his face. He took out a token and threw it at Mr. Lu's face.
"Go back and tell your county magistrate that I, Jin's Trading Company, have acquired the papermaking technology."
"Zhou Peirong, you will be my partner of Jin's Trading Company from now on."
"If anyone dares to do anything against Zhou Peirong in the future, they will be against me, Jin's Trading Company. Do you understand me?"
"What? Kim's Trading Company?"
When Mr. Lu heard this, he almost jumped up.
Having followed the county magistrate for many years, he certainly has plenty of experience.
The weight of these four words ‘Kim’s Trading Company’.
Ordinary people may not know it, but they know it very well in their hearts.
Jin's Trading Company is the largest trading firm in Shu County.
The Jin family is one of the strongest families in Shu.
It is said that the Jin family in Shu also has close relations with certain families in the capital.
Mr. Lu really doesn't understand.
How virtuous and capable is Zhou Peirong that he can actually be related to people from the Jin family?
But when he thought of papermaking, Mr. Lu felt relieved.
Even he can imagine how much profit a sacred object like paper can bring.
How could the Jin family, who have been merchants for generations, not think of this?
"It seems that this papermaking technology is destined to have no chance with the great master!"
Master Lu was thinking this in his mind, and at the same time, he carefully took the dropped token in his hand.
Even though his face was red and swollen from being hit by the token.
But in his heart, he couldn't complain at all.
no way!
Who knows that the person standing opposite him is a member of the Jin family.
"Since the papermaking technology has been bought by the Jin family, I won't bother you anymore."
"Sir's words, I will keep them intact and relay them to the county magistrate."
"Little man, I'll take my leave now!"
After a hurried salute to the middle-aged scribe, Mr. Lu turned around and walked out of the courtyard.
