Chapter 56 Cao Yu was so angry that he vomited blood
The next morning, Lu Yao got up early and ordered someone to bring a piece of charcoal and a few pieces of white paper to prepare a blueprint for the reconstruction of the Lu Mansion.
It is definitely not possible to use a brush to draw design drawings, it must be a charcoal pencil. However, he has not yet found the charcoal pencil, so he must use charcoal instead.
Just when he was painting with great interest, he suddenly heard the sound of fighting.
This is in their Lu Mansion, why are there people fighting? Could it be that there was a conflict between the servants?
That's okay, do you take him as the master of the family seriously?
He has to take care of it.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw Cao Yi holding a newspaper in his hand and kicked down his courtyard door with anger on his face.
Many of the Lu family's servants were holding Cao Yi's body, but they were still thrown away by him.
Lu Yao was so frightened that he immediately closed the door and blocked it with his back.
I didn't offend Uncle Cao Guo today, so how could he be so angry? Could it be that Cao Han said something in his ear, but he didn't do anything?
He heard Cao Yi yelling there: "Lu Yao, you stinky boy, come out here, don't hide, I saw you just now."
Dalu Yao didn't dare to open the door when he was so angry, at least until Cao Yi's anger subsided.
But he underestimated the quality of his doors and windows.
Cao Yan kicked down the door of his room again, and Lu Yao was hit by the sudden huge force and fell firmly to the ground.
Without saying a word, Cao Yi entered Lu Yao's room, stepped over Lu Yao's body, sat on the stool with a golden sword, threw the newspaper in Lu Yao's face, and said angrily: "Lu Yao, I, Cao Yi, will wait."
You are not weak, how can you still behave like this? It really offends me."
Lu Yao raised his head and said innocently: "Uncle Cao, you have to tell me what happened. I'm still confused and my mind is blank."
"See for yourself, I was so angry that I didn't want to speak." Cao Yan took the teapot next to him and poured it into his mouth. The cold tea could not extinguish his anger.
Lu Yao picked up today's newspaper and searched through it, and finally found the reason for the incident in the headlines of current affairs in Bianliang.
It was written in bold font, ‘Two mines were discovered in Su County, Lu County may be the winner in life’.
"What the fuck!" Lu Yao couldn't help but curse.
Although he asked the newspaper's editorial team to publish the latest news around Bianliang in the newspaper, such important matters about his family were not published in it.
Is the guy who wrote the article stupid? Can he say this kind of thing openly? I don’t know if I should discuss it with him beforehand.
No wonder Cao Yi was so angry, he was also angry.
Lu Hao hurried over.
The servants told him that Uncle Cao Guo broke into the Lu Mansion and went straight to Lu Yao's yard. He was so anxious that he ran to Lu Yao's room without even wearing his shoes and socks.
When Cao Yan saw Lu Hao coming, he snorted coldly, "It doesn't matter if Da Lang is here, you can also sit aside and listen to how cruel your brother is."
"What a wolf-hearted person! Uncle Cao, I was wronged." Lu Yao shouted.
"Unjustly accused? Huh! The newspaper is also published by your family. The news about your family published in it can be false. Don't tell me that it is not true. I have already sent someone to look at it. News will be here soon."
Lu Yao knew he couldn't hide the matter, so he confessed: "Yes, I found two small mines in the back mountains of Su County, one is iron ore and the other is lime mine, but their output is not very large.
I was also planning to take some time to go to the Cao Mansion in the afternoon to tell my uncle about this matter, but I didn’t expect you to come directly to my house."
After hearing Lu Yao's explanation, Cao Yi became less angry, but he was still unhappy.

No mine was found in Su County for such a long time in his hands. The mine was discovered just a few days after the factory was handed over to Lu Yao. Was it premeditated beforehand?
Cao Yan continued to snort coldly: "I now seriously suspect that you discovered the mine first, and then asked for my land on the pretext of building a brewery, right?"
Cao Yi looked at Lu Yao with bloodshot eyes.
Lu Yao raised his head and looked at each other fearlessly, "Uncle, it's my fault, Lu Yao, for not telling you the news about the mine at the first time, but you can't slander me. I only found out about the mine yesterday, and even more
There is no such thing as premeditation. Besides, how can an iron mine with small reserves make money by selling wine?"
After Cao Yi thought about it carefully, he felt that what Lu Yao said was right.
The iron ore will be mined one day, but the wine is indeed endless. As long as there is food, there will be wine. In addition, iron smelting is very expensive. The profit of selling a jar of wine is equivalent to selling fifty kilograms of iron.
It is true that iron can make money without wine.
He has never heard of any other lime mines. As long as they are not gold, silver, copper and iron, other mines are not valuable in his eyes.
Cao Yi's anger disappeared. When he saw Lu Yao still lying on the ground, he coughed twice and awkwardly squatted down to help Lu Yao up. "How can my nephew lie on the ground? It's not even the first month of the year and it's so cold on the ground.
Hurry up and sit down and talk."
After Lu Yao sat down, Cao Yi comforted Lu Yao and said, "Nephew Lu Xian, it's all because of my uncle's fault. He came up impatiently before he could figure out the whole story. You also know that we generals have a reckless temperament in their blood. Once
I was so angry that I couldn't care about anything. Besides, the iron ore matter is indeed of great importance. I lost my mind as soon as I heard the news. Please don't blame your uncle."
Lu Yao nodded lightly, "My nephew, I'm sorry. Normally, I would be so angry when I hear this news. I don't blame my uncle for this. I can also understand my uncle."
"It's good if you can understand your uncle, and I feel relieved. It's getting late, so I won't disturb your good nephew to rest."
Cao Yi stood up and Lu Yao sent him out of the room.
Before leaving, Cao Yi said: "It's been more than half a month since the winery started construction, and a lot of wine has been sent around Bianliang. See if it's time to divide the profits. Our Cao Mansion is almost out of control. You also know that this wine
The factory and the paper mill were built with my own money."
Lu Yao felt disdainful in his heart. Uncle Cao Guo only spent 70,000 guan, of which 60,000 guan was land money in Su County, which is equivalent to Uncle Cao Guo only spending 10,000 guan.
Who in Bianliang doesn't know that the Cao family's assets are at least 600,000 to 700,000 guan. If there is less than 10,000 guan, the blame cannot be revealed. It is pure nonsense. He just wants to take out the 10,000 guan that he spent as soon as possible. The money behind is all
Earned in vain.
Lu Yao could see through Cao Yi's thoughts, but he couldn't say it clearly. He could only laugh and said: "My nephew understands. My nephew will go to the winery this afternoon to calculate all the profits for the past half month, and then he will give you two money tomorrow."
The dividends from the success will be sent to the Cao Mansion."
Cao Yi, who was very sensible, liked Lu Yao very much. He patted Lu Yao on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Good nephew, remember to send the money to me tomorrow morning. It depends on you whether Cao Mansion can have food tomorrow."
"Absolutely, don't worry, my uncle Lu Yao is in charge." Lu Yao nodded repeatedly, "Uncle, you'd better go back first."
"Yeah" Cao Yan agreed and walked out of the courtyard.
Lu Yao also walked into his room after seeing Cao Yi disappear through the courtyard gate.
Lu Hao said with a worried look: "Erlang, don't look at the smile on Uncle Cao Guo's face, but he is not a good person to live with. Although he is not interested in your mine now, he may not be sure in the future. Why don't we take advantage of the opportunity to talk to him?"
The Cao family talked about how much the share would be divided, but when the time came, he would have nothing to say even if he thought about it."
Of course Lu Yao knew that Uncle Cao Guo was not an easy person to get along with. He could tell from the sudden intrusion into the Lu Mansion today. It would be fine if there was always a big profit distribution, but it would be better if something happened later.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
If you don't do it well, you might get beaten up. You must be careful when cooperating with Cao Yi in the future.
Lu Yao knew that Lu Hao was worried about the Lu family. After all, the small Lu family was no match for royal relatives like Cao Guojiu. They could easily kill the Lu family, but he, Lu Yao, was not a vegetarian either.
Once someone does harm to the Lu family, he will pay back ten times the amount.
Lu Yao shook his head and said: "Brother, don't worry. I have signed a contract with Cao Guojiu before. Now the land in Su County belongs to me, Lu Yao. He can only get the profits from the winery and the mine."
The situation had nothing to do with him, so even if he sued the officials, it would be useless. After all, it was clearly written in black and white that I was protected by the laws of the Song Dynasty. Uncle Cao Guo did not dare to do anything like buying or selling by force.
It damages the majesty of Queen Cao."
Lu Hao breathed a long sigh of relief. As long as Lu Yao knew the benefits, he didn't want to worry about these things.
Lu Yao glanced at the courtyard gate to make sure there was no one, and then said to Lu Hao: "Actually, I didn't tell the truth just now. The output of iron ore is not that large, but I have developed a method of refining steel.
Eighty percent of the iron in this iron mine can be used to make steel, and it will definitely make more money than selling wine. Our Lu family will just sit back and collect the money from now on."
Lu Hao said worriedly: "If Uncle Cao Guo finds out about this..."
"I already know! Fortunately, I hid aside and didn't leave, otherwise I would have been deceived by you brat again." Cao Yan stood outside the courtyard gate again at some point.
Lu Yao looked helpless. Is it really okay for you, a dignified uncle of the country, to squat outside the courtyard wall and listen to the wall?
Don't be afraid of having an identity.
"You brat, I see you're looking for a fight." Cao Yi waved his fist and said "Yeah, yeah, yeah" and ran towards Lu Yao.
How could Lu Yao just sit back and wait for death?
Cao Yi chased him, but he still couldn't run away.
Lu Yao shouted as he ran: "Uncle Cao, listen to my explanation."
"If I want to hear your nonsense again, my surname is not Cao."
Cao Yi and Lu Yao made the Lu family very upset.
Many servants were squatting on the ground and shivering, not daring to move. The destructive power of these two people was too strong.
Several walls were knocked down.
In the end, Lu Yao was caught up by Cao Yi, and the two of them struggled together. However, Lu Yao did not dare to strike hard, and he was injured the most.
"Stop!" Lu Yao made a stop gesture, and Cao Yan also stopped his fists, lying on the ground with Lu Yao and gasping for air. His figure was not comparable to that of the young man.
The several places on his body where Lu Yao hit him hurt terribly.
"I wonder how Uncle Cao wants to resolve this matter?" Lu Yao asked.
"Seeing that I have a share, you can give me at least 40% of the profits from the iron ore."
Lu Yao shook his head and said: "Fourty percent is too much, at most it's the same as the winery, 20%. This iron ore belongs to me."
"It was mine before." Cao Yi said angrily.
"But now its surname is Lu. You didn't find out who it is called uncle before."
'Okay, if you are brave, I will give you 20%. Send the contract to my house tomorrow.'
"But uncle, you have to give me 100,000 yuan to get these 20% profit." Lu Yao said with a smile.
"You still dare to ask for money?" Cao Yi really wanted to kill this guy who fell in love with money with a sword.
"There's no way anyone can say that iron ore can make a lot of money." Lu Yao spread his hands.
"Really earn so much money?" Cao Yi asked.
"Of course. Have you ever seen me, Lu Yao, do any business that is not very profitable?"
Cao Yi patted the dust on his clothes and stood up, "One hundred thousand guan is too expensive. I can only give you 50,000 guan at most. This money will be deducted from the profits of my winery."
After saying that, he left the Lu Mansion, and this time he really left.
