Chapter 481: Daming Yingtian City Large Shopping Mall and Logistics Network Plan
At around 8:00 p.m.,
Qin Kui, the Minister of Works, who had not slept for two nights, walked out of the Wuying Hall.
He was tattered, with sunken eyes.
The two dark circles under his eyes were particularly obvious, and even the official uniform on his body looked a bit old.
He was walking very slowly at this moment, because if he walked faster, he would feel dizzy.
The oncoming moonlight enveloped him in silver.
He blinked in realization, his dull expression changed, and soon disbelief filled his face.
The person Qin Kui wanted to see most at this moment was Lu Yunyi.
I wanted to ask him why he was still researching military equipment in the Ministry of Industry in the morning.
Why do we have to do business in the Governor's Mansion at night?
He had just learned that the imperial court and the Governor's Office were planning to jointly open a trading company, and they also wanted to involve the Ministry of Industry to get a piece of the pie.
If His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had not personally told him,
Qin Kui couldn't believe that such a good thing would come to him.
According to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, once the business is opened, it will definitely make money, which will be an unimaginable huge fortune.
And with such a good business, the Ministry of Industry only needs to provide house decoration and some tricycles and bicycles.
This condition cannot be said to be bad, it can only be said to be too good, so good that he couldn't believe it.
He is now wondering how such a good thing could happen to him?
Qin Kui wandered around the imperial city like a zombie.
I move forward little by little, trying to hit the key point.
Although the number of members has not yet been determined, as it is the Ministry of Industry, it will not be too few.
This made him excited for no reason.
If the business really makes money, it will give some money to the company every year.
Then the lives of many officials and adults in the Ministry of Works will be better.
He also didn't have to pester the officials of the Ministry of Revenue all day long, urging them to allocate the money quickly.
This was a great help in helping him secure his position as Shangshu.
After many twists and turns, they finally arrived at the Ministry of Works, where the imperial guards were still guarding.
Qin Kui looked at the strict defense in front of him and sighed for no reason.
"Ugh"
People are just different.
With just a little effort, he blocked the Ministry of Works and even got the Governor's Office to do business with the palace.
If someone else were to do this, it would take a year.
Thinking about how he had to go to the Ministry of Revenue to collect debts every month, Qin Kui felt that his life was lived in vain.
Instead of feeling the power of the Minister of Industry, he was so busy that he couldn't even go home.
"Ugh"
Qin Kui sighed again.
But after sighing, he immediately straightened his back.
He took out a handkerchief from his bosom and began to wipe his face vigorously.
When he saw the yellow oil stains on the handkerchief, he shook his head repeatedly, tried to open his eyes wide, and walked in resolutely.
This time, I don’t know how long I will have to stay in the yamen.
His action was clearly seen by Guo Zhen who was not far away.
He shivered with a slight chill.
"It's not easy to be an official anywhere. Don't you need to sleep all day long?"
At the beginning of the hour of Hai, Lu Yunyi returned to the Lu Mansion with a thick booklet, thinking about the places he had just visited.
After knowing that this matter could make money, the governor's office acted faster than ever before.
It took less than half an hour to select enough suitable houses, nearly twenty in total.
Each one is at an intersection in Yingtian City where every inch of land is valuable.
Moreover, it occupies a very large area, with several buildings and even half a street owned by the Governor's Office.
The commander of the Left Army, Geng Zhong, said frankly,
If necessary, all merchants can be cleared out.
When the time comes, we will connect the houses and build the largest business in Yingtian City!
This sentence suits the appetite of many adults.
Since the Governor's Office is going to do it, let's do it the best and the biggest!
But Lu Yunyi didn't think so, he had just visited that place.
Although the place is large, it is not the main street where people gather, but in the back streets.
If you don't go there specifically, you might miss it.
Although the attraction of the place will be greatly increased after the business is opened,
But when doing business or fighting, we are never afraid of trouble and will never take action before everything is ready!
If a place is good but has flaws, then it is not good enough.
Lu Yunyi thought as he walked.
At this time, the housekeeper Gu Chunzhu trotted over, bowing as he walked.
"Master, you are finally back."
Seeing his flustered look, Lu Yunyi was a little confused:
"What happened?"
Gu Chunzhu calmed himself down and stood up straight:
"Many female relatives were sent to the Duke of Liang's Mansion this afternoon.
He also told me that they were all the most beautiful girls in the brothels and were trustworthy, so he asked me to arrange for them to stay in the mansion first."
At this point, Gu Chunzhu's face was full of weirdness:
"Duke Cao's mansion also sent a message this afternoon.
Some female relatives will be sent to the mansion tomorrow, so let's get ready.
Sir, I have been engaged in this business for nearly thirty years.
This is the first time I have encountered a situation where so much is given as a gift. I was a little panicked for a moment. Please give me your instructions, sir.
Should we place him in the palace or buy another house to house him somewhere else?
There is another reason why Gu Chunzhu is so cautious.
That means the news has spread in the capital, and the Beijing troops will return tomorrow.
At that time, not only the army will come, but also the Marquis of Xiping and his two daughters who are the most powerful in the northwest.
One of them was the second mistress of the Lu Mansion.
If he comes and sees so many women in the mansion, there is no guarantee that he will cause trouble.
So he didn't rest even at this late hour, but kept waiting here anxiously.
If this matter is not settled tonight, it will be too late to do it tomorrow.
Lu Yunyi, who was sitting opposite him, was also stunned. He slapped his head fiercely.
I was so busy this afternoon that I forgot about this.
Thinking about it carefully, he also looked worried.
Lu Yunyi was naturally interested in these women.
But if you keep it at home, not only will you have no time to play with it, but it will also have a bad reputation if it gets out.
By then, it will be like yellow mud falling into your crotch, which will be shit if not shit.
Hey?
Suddenly, Lu Yunyi's eyes lit up, and after thinking for a moment, he said in a resounding voice:
“Place all the people in the mansion and take good care of them.
The maids and servants must be fully equipped, and I will send someone to buy them some necessary items tomorrow.
Clothes, rouge, powder, nothing is missing."
"Master, a harmonious family is the foundation of everything." Gu Chunzhu's voice trembled slightly.
Lu Yunyi waved his hand:
"Just do it, don't be afraid to spend money."
After saying that, Lu Yunyi quickly walked towards the study.
Gu Chunzhu trotted up again and spoke hesitantly:
"Master, don't you want to meet those ladies? They have been waiting for you."
"Why are you waiting for me? Let them go to bed early and don't cause trouble for no reason."
"Uh" Gu Chunzhu was speechless, what else could he do?
After walking a few steps, Lu Yunyi turned back and reminded:
“It’s impossible to keep the news of so many women coming to the house secret.
If there are any rumors outside,
You don't need to explain it, just pretend it doesn't exist, and don't argue with others, do you understand?"
"I understand, sir."
Gu Chunzhu spoke repeatedly, and the maids beside her all bowed and said yes.
Seeing how cooperative they were, Lu Yunyi nodded with satisfaction and walked quickly towards the study.
Gu Chunzhu thought for a long time.
Finally I decided to talk to those girls and stop waiting.
After wandering around, the group passed through the winding corridors.
Arriving at the innermost rooms of the mansion,
The lights here are bright, which is in sharp contrast with the other dimness in the mansion.
Around the wing room, guards holding long swords stood like statues, their eyes cold and alert.
Although the long sword in his hand was not unsheathed, it was flashing a cold light under the light, making the whole area shrouded in a layer of eerie coldness.
After Gu Chunzhu and the others arrived here, they couldn't help but slow down their pace and hold their breath.
After negotiating with the guards here,
The six women who came today were arranged in a reception room next to the wing room.
Gu Chunzhu stepped into the room and saw six women with different postures.
Some are dignified and quiet, some are bright and beautiful, at first glance they are the best in the city's brothels.
When they saw Gu Chunzhu come in, they all looked at him with anticipation and curiosity in their eyes.
The originally dim room seemed to become brighter because of the change in their expressions.
Gu Chunzhu stood there, rubbed his hands nervously, and sighed slightly.
"Girls,"
Gu Chunzhu cleared his throat and tried to make his voice sound solemn.
"The master has returned. Let the girls rest well tonight and don't wait for him."
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the room changed significantly.
One of the women, who was wearing a pink silk dress, opened her red lips and her voice was as sweet as a yellow oriole singing in a valley:
"Butler Gu, what did we do wrong to upset Lord Lu?"
Gu Chunzhu waved his hands quickly and explained:
"Miss, you misunderstood. The master has been busy all day.
I'm so busy with so many things that I don't have time to take care of it. It's not because of the girls."
Another woman in moon-white brocade frowned slightly, revealing a bit of resentment:
"Then I wonder what plans Lord Lu has for us?
Although we sisters come from a brothel, we also want to settle down in the Lu Mansion and don’t want to go back to that place of prostitution.”
The atmosphere in the room changed again, becoming full of resentment.
Gu Chunzhu felt that cold sweat was about to break out on his forehead.
He took a deep breath and his expression became serious:
"Please rest assured, young ladies, stay in the mansion. The master has ordered that tomorrow he will send someone to buy clothes, rouge, powder, etc. for the young ladies. Just stay here with peace of mind."
At this time, a tall woman, about 1.7 meters tall, dressed in emerald green, couldn't help but speak:
"Manager Gu, I heard that the Second Mistress will be back tomorrow. I hope she won't chase us away."
Gu Chunzhu was sweating profusely. How should he answer such questions?
"Don't worry girls, the master has his own plans, just stay here for now."
Seeing that he did not give a direct answer, many girls had a flash of unwillingness in their eyes, but they nodded helplessly.
A woman in a pink dress stood up and bowed:
“Thank you, Steward Gu, for telling me, and thank you, Lord Lu, for taking me in.
Please also tell the master that we sisters will abide by the rules and not cause trouble to the Lu Mansion."
Gu Chunzhu breathed a sigh of relief and nodded slightly:
"It's good that the girls can understand.
The master is a veteran in the army, he has always lived a simple life, and he is also a quiet person. It is better for the girls to be safe and stable than anything else. "
"Well, it's getting late, girls, go to bed early.
If you need anything, just let the servants report it. The master will not treat you badly."
"Thank you."
After saying that, Gu Chunzhu led the people behind him out of the reception room.
When he walked out, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh. He touched his forehead, which was covered in cold sweat.
In the study, Lu Yunyi sat at the desk.
Looking at the plan made today, I choose the location for the business.
It's not that he's in a hurry, but this matter should be done quickly rather than slowly.
On the one hand, the Beijing army will return tomorrow.
It will be a busy time again, whether it is celebrating the success, commending the achievements, or the final reward.
Everyone is so busy that they have no time to deal with the business.
Furthermore, this time it had to be finalized quickly before the six ministries and many government offices in the court could react, so as to buy time for space.
There are so many wise men in the court.
Everyone knows the changes brought about by the advent of bicycles and tricycles.
He can see the huge business opportunities contained therein, and others can see it too.
If we don't finalize it now, a lot of energy will be wasted in arguing later.
There are too many officials in the Governor's Office and dukes in the capital.
A lot of trouble can be avoided only by finalizing it quickly when the business is inconspicuous.
If they all knew that this thing could make a lot of money, they wouldn't know how to divide the shares.
But that's not the most important thing.
A mature business plan should focus on the future when attracting investment and try to explain how the money will be divided in the future.
But when you really want to do it, you have to focus on the present.
First build the stage and see the difficulties in front of you, instead of thinking about the beautiful vision in the future.
Lu Yunyi looked at the thick documents on the table.
The brain is like an engine that starts up gradually and starts to roar.
Thoughts keep colliding and flowing.
Ideas came up one after another and were rejected by him.
Then the next one appears and is rejected, and the cycle continues.
As time passed, the rustling sound of pens continued to fill the study room, never stopping.
The bloodshot in Lu Yunyi's eyes also welled up little by little.
The eyes that were originally wide open also narrowed a little bit to reduce eyestrain.
After an unknown amount of time, Lu Yunyi heard some movement at the door and looked up.
Feng Yunfang came in with a plate of food.
There was a cup of hot tea, a bowl of millet porridge, some pickles, and two pastries covered with thick syrup on it.
"What time is it?"
"Sir, it is already the beginning of the Yin hour."
Lu Yunyi suddenly realized, turned his head in surprise and looked out from the curtains, looking at the increasingly sad and beautiful moonlight.
It's already three o'clock.
Lu Yunyi looked at Feng Yunfang and pointed at the corner of the desk that had been cleared:
"Put it here."
"Yes." Feng Yunfang came over quickly with a plate in hand.
After putting down the plate, he whispered:
"Sir, why don't you get some sleep? We have to go to meet the Beijing troops tomorrow morning."
"Um"
Lu Yunyi just hummed and said nothing more.
He didn't drink the millet porridge yet. Instead, he picked up the pastry covered with thick syrup and started eating it bit by bit.
Mmm - cloyingly sweet.
Feng Yunfang bowed and slowly retreated, and the entire study fell silent again.
Lu Yunyi was eating cakes while looking at the plan on the table.
Sometimes he picked up a pen to make revisions, sometimes he frowned and thought deeply.
After another half an hour, he had eaten all the food on the plate, and Lu Yunyi started to work again.
It was not until dawn when the sun came in that Lu Yunyi stretched lazily.
Looking at the increasingly perfect plan in front of me.

After reading it once, Lu Yunyi suddenly raised his head and wanted to call Feng Yunfang in.
But the sudden dizziness and blackening of vision made him hold his head.
After a long pause, he shouted:
"Yun Fang!!! Come in for a moment!!"
Feng Yunfang rushed in, and Lu Yunyi handed over the plan in his hand:
"Have someone make 30 copies, and not a single word can be wrong."
"Yes!"
Feng Yunfang's expression suddenly turned serious.
