Lu Bai didn't know what to do, so he didn't have so many thoughts.
The only thing he was worried about was whether the Jinyiwei who had just combed would be messed up again because of the arrival of the admiral.
And private salt.
After Xichang took over the private salt, it was not so easy to get the private salt again.
Lu Bai had to make plans early, the right way was to get Yanshan's salt.
These worries were relieved after going to the city lord's mansion. The city lord assured Lu Bai that the admiral of the East Factory would not interfere with Jinyiwei's affairs, but the father-in-law of the West Factory—
"This father-in-law of Xichang comes from Neishutang." The city lord vaguely nodded to Lu Bai.
Lu Bai didn't understand at the time, he just thought that the father-in-law in the inner school hall was amazing.
But after I went back and told Gu Qinghuan, I realized that this Neishutang is really amazing. According to legend, the Neishutang was founded by the Sanbao eunuch.
Lu Bai interrupted Gu Qinghuan, "Is his surname Zheng?"
Gu Qinghuan shook his head inexplicably, and continued: "This three-treasure eunuch is capable of both literature and martial arts. He was at the emperor's side at that time. He was the closest eunuch to the emperor. Later, he went to sea seven times to collect treasures for the emperor—"
"Seven times to sea!"
Lu Bai almost asked him if his surname was Zheng.
Gu Qinghuan nodded.
The three-treasure eunuch went to sea seven times and had many adventures. According to legend, he got an unnamed treasure book in the hands of a different person, which recorded the supreme magic skills.
"only--"
"It's just that only eunuchs can practice this skill?" Lu Bai interjected.
Gu Qinghuan glanced at Lu Bai, then nodded slowly, his eyes seemed to say congratulations, you have learned to answer quickly.
Lu Bai was dumbfounded, it must be a coincidence, "This, this book, yes, is it called the Sunflower Book?"
Gu Qinghuan was even more surprised, "It's very close, it's called Chrysanthemum Collection."
"Uh--"
Lu Bai thought about it, the chrysanthemum is very important, if the chrysanthemum is not there, the integrity will not be guaranteed.
The Sanbao eunuch relied on this chrysanthemum book to create an inner book hall in Da Nei, so that the eunuchs also had the opportunity to practice.
Of course, the adventures of the Sanbao eunuch who went to sea seven times are more than that.
According to legend, he also met an immortal who taught him the art of holding stars.
This is a method of Taoism, a method of formation, a method of exercise, or a method of divination, a method of changing fate against the sky, "It is said that our dynasty has only 270 years of luck. The dynasty continued for another hundred years, Guozuo."
And it will continue.
"Furthermore, it has been proven that in 270, our dynasty was indeed almost destroyed by the northern barbarians. It was the Neishutang who came out and defeated the 48 arhats who were fighting across the river. This saved half of the dynasty." Gu Qinghuan said.
The Eight Great Factions still support the royal family and push the emperor as the co-lord. The Sanbao eunuch and the Neishutang created by him are indispensable.Therefore, the Neishutang is vaguely called the Nine Great Schools, but because the Neishutang is too special, and the eunuchs are too special, the Eight Great Schools are ashamed to be juxtaposed with the Neishutang, which prevents this saying from spreading.
Just because listening to Jun's words is better than ten years of reading books, Lu Bai suddenly realized now, no wonder the surname Zhu can last forever, so there is such a nine major faction supporting it.
In addition to these exercises, the Sanbao eunuch also collected keel bones for the emperor, flat peaches to increase Taoism, medicine pills to improve cultivation and other treasures. That's all, the key point is that he also brought back a divine beast, which is said to be a god's mount—— Xuanwu.
Up to now, the tortoise still stays in the inner study hall, with a stele on its back.
This stele was left by the eunuch of the Three Treasures. It is said that if the stele is cracked, the dynasty will come to an end.
After hearing this, Lu Bai was fascinated, and if he went to the inner school in the future——
Bah, what inner school did he enter.
If there is a chance in the future, I must go to meet this Xuanwu.
At the same time, Lu Bai lamented that the backcountry is really a backcountry, and this is the first time he has heard such a legend when he grows up.It seems that the world is far more exciting than he thought, and he must go out more often when he has the opportunity in the future.
"Hey, by the way, what happened to Eunuch Sanbao?" Lu Bai asked curiously.
Gu Qinghuan shook his head.
The eunuch Sanbao disappeared when he went out to sea for the seventh time. Some people said that he died, and some said that he stayed in the fairy mountain and became a fairy.Others said that the eunuch of the Three Treasures was punished and imprisoned by the Emperor of Heaven to change the state of the dynasty by using the astrology technique to go against the sky.
All in all, Sanbao Tianjian mysteriously disappeared.
"Having said so much, the importance of the Neishutang can be imagined. Now that the higher ups have sent the disciples of the Neishutang here, it is debatable what their intentions are here." Gu Qinghuan pondered.
Lu Bai felt that he would be able to find out just by asking City Master Gu.
As a eunuch, Neishutang must obey the imperial power, and the emperor is the nephew of City Lord Gu.
Lu Qinghuan shook his head, "It's not that simple."
The destiny of Neishutang is to consolidate the imperial power, but it does not necessarily serve the emperor. Anything they think is not conducive to the imperial power, they will not do it if the emperor asks them to do it.On the contrary, if the emperor does not let them do it, they will do it.
Of course, apart from these things, they still have an obligation to make the emperor happy.
Lu Bai was speechless.
Ganqing is a machine that maintains imperial power and has no emotions.
"Did he come here for salt?" Lu Bai guessed.
Because of private salt, Yancheng has lost an admiral.
It is not impossible for this disciple of Neishutang to come here for this purpose.
Gu Qinghuan shook his head, "The relationship between Neishutang and the eunuchs of the East and West factories is equivalent to the relationship between Haoqimen and the White Wolf Gang and the Beggars Gang. If there is something to do between the two gangs on weekdays, we will send the backbone of both gangs to appear. Only If there is an urgent matter, or if you can't trust the people in the gang, you will directly send the disciples of Haoqimen to take charge of the gang affairs.
Gu Qinghuan felt that this was probably the reason why the disciples from Neishutang came.
"Obviously, if the people in Xichang can't believe it, they can deal with the people in Xichang. There is no need to send people to Yancheng. Therefore, this inner disciple's trip must be something important." Gu Qinghuan said.
She can also guess to this extent.
As for what the disciples of Neishutang did here, she really couldn't figure it out.
It's not because of her and Lu Bai.
Not bad.
She wanted to trouble the late emperor, but it was obviously impossible for her to push her nephew down from the throne.
"Forget it, there must be a way for the car to reach the mountain." Lu Bai stood up and stretched.
He smiled, "Since he wants to be in charge of the salt affairs, let him be in charge. I'd like to see how he can clean up the mess of Yancheng's salt tax."
As long as there is a salt tax, the people of Yancheng will surely suffer.
Since the purpose of Neishutang is to safeguard the imperial power, Lu Bai wants to see whether he takes these common people seriously.
Or maybe, the common people were not part of this country in the first place.
Who knows.
Having said that, a question follows-
Gu Qinghuan asked Lu Bai: "The foundation of the White Wolf Gang is salt. Now that Nei Shutang disciples are here, and you are watching the changes, what will the White Wolf Gang do?"
Don't worry, Lu Bai has already made up his mind.
"Shunfeng Warehouse can speed up the pace. In addition, Shunfeng Bank also needs to speed up." Lu Bai has already prepared for the diversified development of the White Wolf Gang.
The warehouse business is now on track.
Although only two lines have been opened, from Yancheng to Yongle City, the business is booming.Now the caravan no longer has to follow Jin Yiwei, give money, hire martial artists, buy bettors, and then go on the road in person.
As long as they hand over the goods to Shunfeng Warehouse, Shunfeng Warehouse can use the same price—occasionally there is a discount and even cheaper—to help them deliver them to Qingshui Town, Yongle City on time and on time.
And in the wilderness, there was Ma Ji, and later joined Niu Ji - when Lu Bai traveled last time, the carts were all bull demons sent by his sister, Da Hei Niu, so he heard clearly about the business between him and Ma Ji .
Da Hei Niu's father thought this was a way to earn money, so he set up Niu Ji to compete with Ma Ji.
Six months ago, Lu Bai integrated them together in his busy schedule to form Shunfeng Freight, which distributes dividends according to shares every year - Lu Bai's distribution is more, because this business route is in charge.
After Freight came out of the Man Spider Inn, Lao Lao followed Shunfeng Freight from time to time to make a trip to ensure the smooth flow of trade routes, and taught those monsters who didn't have long eyes that Shunfeng Freight was not easy to mess with.
Chatting is great now.
Lu Bai never thought that she would share Mrs. Zhu out. The reason was not to restore the strength of her sisters, juniors, daughters, nieces and other members of the same clan, so that they could be returned to the way they had been taken away, but to tie Mrs. Zhu's heart.
Let it not leave him because of fickleness.
Lu Bai was a little jealous of people like Lu Bai who kept his face on his face and beat drums, so much so that he put on the airs of being a father, closed the door and scolded Mrs. Zhu severely.
However, although Mrs. Bamboo kept the black widows from going crazy when they did that thing, it couldn't bring them the joy of soul and flesh that made them want to die when they were rubbing hands with their grandma.
Until Lu Bai took out a few more bottles of love potion [If the relationship lasts for a long time, it is not between a man and a woman].
After taking it for these black widows, they are now so in love with Mrs. Bamboo that they even sleep with each other—they have no palace fights, because they have heard Mrs. Zhu's voice and asked them to be kind.
Lu Bai immediately raised his forehead after hearing this.
He now suspects that Mrs. Bamboo has become a spirit.
However, it's strange to say that Mrs. Bamboo is worthy of being a panel product, so it's fine if it's not broken after so much work, it's still smooth, and it's even more loved by the black widows.
Lu Bai didn't understand.
He could only snatch the big black bull's green hat and put it on the black widow, directly increasing her defense by dozens of points.
Don't underestimate these dozens of points of defense.
Later, Zhongshan wolf wanted to take revenge, but dared not enter the city, so he could only aim at Lao Lao.
Two hundred-year-old monsters, both in the Qi refining period, should have been a fierce battle after meeting, but because of these dozens of points of defense, Lao Lao beat Zhongshan wolf to the ground, and never dared to harass the caravan again .
After hearing this, Lu Bai couldn't help feeling that panel products are really useful, the key is to use them in the right place.
He thought for a while, and gave a cage of beef buns to Da Hei Niu—this was also drawn by a lottery. After taking a bite, he would gain five points of strength for a short time, and after eating all of them, he would gain one point of strength permanently.
Lu Bai also got a papaya soup.
He let Wang'er drink it.
I don't know if it's the effect of this papaya soup, or it's because Wang'er is about to reach the end, but it seems to be quite large.
Lu Bai also gave Gu Qinghuan a beauty soup.
These are nothing, Lu Bai even got a diarrhea soup, which is specially used to treat old constipation, and there is no use for it now.
Off topic.
"Since the warehouse is now on the right track, we have to plan carefully and train some talents." Lu Bai said.
The business of Shunfeng Warehouse will definitely not be limited to Yongle City in the future, but will also develop elsewhere, so talent reserves should be reserved as early as possible.
So is Shunfeng Bank.
Shunfeng Bank is a business born after the success of Shunfeng Warehouse.
It originated from the fact that when Shunfeng Warehouse was doing business between Yongle City and Yancheng, it often had to transport boxes of silver, which was troublesome and cumbersome.
In the same batch of freight business, some merchants want to transport silver to Yongle City to buy goods, and then return the goods; some merchants want to transport goods to Yongle City to sell, and then transport the silver back.
Back and forth, the car is never empty, and I have done a lot of useless work.
Later, Lu Bai simply took out part of the money from the gang as a reserve.
When encountering this situation again, Lu Bai took the money from the merchant who was going to buy goods in Yongle City, but did not take the money away. Instead, the merchant would pick up the money from the warehouse in Qingshui Town with the receipt, and then buy the goods.Merchants who go to Yongle City to sell goods will deposit their silver in the Qingshui Town warehouse after selling the goods, and then go to the Yancheng Warehouse to pick up the silver with the ticket.
This trip saves a lot of trouble, and the merchants also save a lot of worry, so the business gradually picks up.
Up to now, many merchants simply deposit silver in warehouses and only accept bills, which saves the trouble of depositing and withdrawing, and increases the risk.
As for the bills, Lu Bai is not afraid of making fakes, because he exchanged a lot of papers with merit points from the panel mall.
This kind of paper cannot be burnt or torn, and it does not exist in this world.
Although some merit points were abolished, these merit points are nothing compared to the 8000 million merit points that need to be improved for the exercises.
The bills are guaranteed, and the rest is the accounts.
During the six months that Lu Bai worked in Jinyiwei, Gu Qinghuan established a complete set of bookkeeping methods, with the gang of beggars, warehouses, and chatters supervising each other to ensure everything was safe.
Lu Bai was proud, "If this business is successful, it will not be inferior to the private salt business."
It's just that this business is more complicated, and I'm afraid it needs to train more talents.
Gu Qinghuan nodded, "Even so, these two professions cannot be digested by so many members of the White Wolf Gang, besides, many members of the White Wolf Gang are not good at these two professions at all."
Lu Bai nodded, that's right.
