Wu Defu looked at Li Guolou intently and said: "Little Lizi, if you have any good ways to make money, tell me. My second brother knows that you have a quick mind. We are not people who burn bridges when crossing rivers. You will get a lot of the benefits, right?"
Yao Cuo nodded and said: "Xiao Lizi, since you came to my team, look at how much I have changed. Am I not enough of a friend?"
Lu Haikong said: "Good third brother, my good third brother, fourth brother and I obey you and will always follow you."
Wang Wu didn't say anything, and just poured tea and water, doing the work for the brothers. Ai Hai couldn't get in, so he could only crane his neck to listen carefully.
Li Guolou put on an air of arrogance and said, "Brothers, let alone the royal family, who do you think is the richest in the capital?"
Wang Wudao: "Does the prince count?"
Li Guolou shook his head and said: "They are also members of the royal family, so they don't count."
Wu Defu stretched out his hand and pointed upward, saying: "The officer above, count the money with your eyes closed."
Li Guolou said: "How many years can you earn? The maximum term is seven years, and the fat and thin seats rotate. If it is not a business run by oneself, everyone will retire and return home."
Yao Cuo said: "The big businessmen in Ziyi Society are incompetent in their strength. Zuo Zongtang relied on them to rise to the top."
Li Guolou nodded and said: "Yes! The gang of Ziyi Club, the gangsters, and the white gangs all have to give them face. They are the backbone of the country. They have money, and they are still united. Whoever the money throws at will be promoted."
If we don't go up, we will be Adou. What do we do with money? Will people think highly of us if we join the Ziyi Club? Our foundation and status are not good enough. Even if we join, we will have no say."
Wu Defu seemed to understand, and said: "Xiao Lizi, please explain clearly, what are you going to do?"
Li Guolou said: "What I mean is that in the future we will recruit rich people to come over and become even more powerful than the Ziyi Society. The eldest brother and the second brother will no longer be part of the team, but will become famous businessmen and benevolent people in the capital."
, this is what we pursue as Tianzihao. No matter who comes to power, they cannot touch us, because we take it from the people and use it for the people. Do you understand?"
Yao Cuonao didn't understand, so he said: "Giving porridge?"
Li Guolou rolled his eyes and said, "Brother, this is too low-level, do you still want me to teach you?"
Wu Defu said: "Do we need to do the right thing and create an outer packaging?"
Li Guolou nodded and said: "Yes, second brother is right. We also need to have a decent business, and let this decent business make rich people beg us and be willing to listen to our mercy. Even foreigners will be begged of us in the future."
Us, have a good relationship with us."
Yao Cuo said: "We are still buying guns and cannons now, who would want them?"
Li Guolou shook his head and said: "Brother, the arms business is a source of great wealth for the country. Now that the world is about to be at peace, what else should we do in the arms business? The arms business is also a sideline. If there is no one above, who will be taken advantage of?"
Wu Defu looked at Li Guolou with a gloomy expression. He couldn't think of any business that was more profitable than running a guild hall. Those businesses of digging ginseng and opening gold mines were all done by princes, and they couldn't get involved.
Wu Defu had no choice but to surrender and sigh: "Little Liz, you better tell me, I can't think of it."
Li Guolou looked around at the people around him and said: "Now all the bank accounts in our Qing Empire are monopolized by Shanxi people. In the north are Shanxi people's bank accounts, and in the south are foreign trading houses. This industry has been in the West for hundreds of years.
history, only when we step into this industry can we be considered truly wealthy."
Wu Defu said: "Xiao Lizi, I think this industry is also a gangster business, and there is no way to get rid of it." He was secretly angry. How could the ticket number be considered a gangster business? It was obviously a gangster business. Li Guolou asked him to guess and he would never be able to do it.
Ticket number business is booming.
At this time, the bank account was a gangster business, and what they did was shady. The gangsters were responsible for escorting the money. The rules were even more scary and the hierarchy was strict. Guys and shopkeepers had no freedom in life. It could be said that they did not eat the fireworks of the world. Outsiders felt that
It is a mysterious sect. Some ticket offices do business with local big businessmen, and ordinary people do not deal with the ticket offices.
Looking at everyone's uncaring eyes, Li Guolou sighed: "I told you that I am not willing to contribute money and effort. If you want to get involved then, you will not be able to get involved, because this is a joint-stock system and other shareholders do not agree.
, you send the money to my door, I won’t accept it.”
Wu Defu's eyes widened and he said: "Xiao Lizi, please think clearly about how much capital the ticket bank requires, at least several hundred thousand taels of silver. People's reputation is earned by generations of talents. Is it possible for you to get involved?
I think you are dreaming."
Li Guolou said: "It's only a few hundred thousand taels of silver. Am I not a white wolf who got 50,000 taels of silver with nothing? As long as we renovate the capital next year, someone will send us hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. I will also give you my name."
I've thought about it, I want a lucky ticket number, the eldest brother and the second brother have their names, how about that?"
Wu Defu shook his head and said, "Don't give it this name. It's so tacky. It sounds like it was driven by a country person. You have to keep up with the times and be more fashionable."
Yao Cuo said: "My name is wrong. It doesn't match anything. Don't flatter me like Little Plum. You need to have a big name so that you can stand on a broader stage."
Li Guolou was a little embarrassed. He wanted to flatter the two eldest brothers, but failed to flatter him and ended up flattering him.
Wu Defu looked up to the sky and sighed: "What an ambition. I suddenly thought that I would get hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. Even if we sold all our ancestors for eighteen generations, we still wouldn't be able to get this amount. Xiao Lizi, you are ruthless. I will win the first round of the bet."
, let’s bet on the second game, I’m ready to do it. But still
It seems to me, Xiao Lizi, if I keep betting with you, one day I will return to my original shape." His ambition was encouraged by Li Guolou to become more and more powerful, and he became more and more confident in himself.
At this point, I am full of expectations for becoming a great businessman and a great philanthropist in the future.
Yao Cuo also rolled up his other sleeve and said: "If you do it once, you will do it, if you do it twice, you will do it. If you can get hundreds of thousands of taels, you can do it. The business of bank accounts is passed down from generation to generation. If we do this business well, we will do it."
We can tell our children and grandchildren openly and honestly what we did back then." Having received the benefits, he refused to give up the opportunity to make a fortune. Yao Cuo was originally a gambler, so how could he easily jump off a pirate ship?
Wang Wu sighed: "Xiao Lizi, if I continue to work with you, I won't even have a place to live." He and Li Guolou shared weal and woe, and he absolutely believed in Li Guolou's ideas, and even said that he would lose everything.
Xingyunfeng laughed a few times and did not respond to the words of the two elder brothers. He still liked to collect protection fees and was very familiar with it. He did not want to get involved in anything that was not reasonable.
Lu Haikong said: "With hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, I don't think we can do it." Will you contribute to something you are not optimistic about? The meaning has been told to the people around.
Ai Hai was helpless and secretly clenched his fists. He could only fight to gain a future. He believed that Li Guolou would still help him. Although Li Guolou got off the carriage without saying a word to him, Li Guolou lived in
In his home, let him squeeze into the ranks of the eldest brother. In the future, his number of people will not be less than that of the land, sea and air.
Some people are ready to do it, and some people want to back down, and everyone knows the principle of giving up when things get better. Li Guolou didn’t say much. This is a business that he can’t handle now, but he believes that he will definitely do it in a short time.
A good bank account business. Only by taking control of other people's money in your own hands can you have a sense of accomplishment. Li Guolou's vision will be higher, and the world will be broader.
Yao Cuo couldn't help but took out his gold watch to check the time. Seeing this action, Li Guolou couldn't help but curl his lips. This is what the nouveau riche is like.
Wu Defu said angrily: "Xiao Lizi, you gave your elder brother a gold watch, why didn't I get a share?"
"Shhhhhhhh!" Yao Cuo quickly made a gesture and said: "The person who lied to my wife was my own money. How could you even believe such a lie? You are still a master."
Wu Defu immediately calmed down and said: "That's about the same, Xiao Lizi, you can't favor one or the other. We are doing errands in the same room. How is the errand assigned to you today? Have you completed it?"
Li Guolou chuckled and said: "The case will be closed tomorrow, but the little thief will come to the Yamen by himself and will also send two hundred taels as a tribute. Master Wu, please trouble me and put him in jail, and lock up the little thief for a month.
Let him suffer a little."
Wu Defu's brain was so strong that he understood it immediately. He chuckled secretly and said, "Little Liz, you are the most talented agent I have ever seen. It would be a pity if you don't do it."
Li Guolou said: "I like to stay at the scene of the crime. Solving the case gives me a sense of accomplishment. I won't quit my job."
Yao Cuo nodded and said: "Well, this is better. It saves us from worrying that one day you will take away our money and flee to the UK. There is another thing that I am most worried about. What did your bitch say to my wife?
?”
Li Guolou said suspiciously: "Brother, what mean words could I have said to my sister-in-law? Don't talk nonsense."
Yao Cuo said angrily: "You don't know yet! Bible, Bible, my wife has got a Bible back from the church. She reads it every day. She has already asked Shuangxi to study at the Catholic Mary School. Look at what you're doing
Well, there are going to be two Catholics in my family."
Li Guolou quickly defended himself and said: "Brother, it was my sister-in-law who started chatting with Sister-in-law Qian when she was drinking at Manhanlou that day. I must be blamed for this. I am not too unjust. Besides, I am not religious."
Wu Defu glanced at him and said, "My verdict is that Xiao Lizi is not unjust at all. Xiao Lizi, you know how to hypnotize the foreign devils and bring harm to the people of the Qing Empire. Can you tell me how many of your habits have changed since you met Xiao Lizi?"
The people present nodded frequently as they thought about it, saying that many of their habits had changed and that they were really controlled by DiCaprio's hypnosis.
Wu Defu was smug and said: "I'm right, this is called witchcraft, and you will be burned to death in the West. So Xiao Lizi can solve the case here, relying on the witchcraft of foreign devils."
Li Guolou had no way to argue. He really bewitched many people with different personalities and did things that no one else had ever done. He had also read books on Western witchcraft, but he didn't understand them, and he couldn't recite the spells.
Could it be that his talent was the witchcraft of foreign devils? For the first time, Li Guolou had doubts about himself.
