The sunset is gone and night falls.

Another day passed, and the harbor, which was bustling with cars and horses, was slowly calming down.

The inns and restaurants, the tiles and tiles on the pier were also brightly lit and started to be lively. They were docked on the sea boats of all sizes in the harbor. Many were brightly lit, and the sound of drinking, singing, dancing, and silk and bamboo were heard. There were even two or three Japanese pleasure boats parked on the shore, with pink lanterns and colorful silk hangings. Some women in kimono greeted the passing guests on the pier and on the boat.

Sihai Restaurant, Lu Family’s industry in the wharf.

At this time, in a private room on the second floor, the second young master of the Lu family was sitting opposite two men in gorgeous clothes. The dishes on the table were dazzling. A beautiful woman with a good appearance stood beside her with a wine pot, but the atmosphere in the room was a bit solemn, and the three of them seemed to have no appetite for drinking and eating.

Two men in gorgeous clothes, one in their sixties, with gray hair and neatly combed, and the other in their thirties, had a somewhat similar appearance. If anyone familiar with the Lu family knew that these were the father and son of the Lu family.

The older man was named Lu Yuntai. He used to be a juren, but he became a businessman after failing many exams. Everyone in Yanggong Town is respectfully called Lu Yuanwai.

The older man in the same seat was his eldest son Lu Guangxian, and the second young master of the Lu family was named Lu Guangping. Because the Lu family had a great fortune, it not only had a huge industry in the dock of Yanggong Town, but also had commercial properties in Yin County and the capital. It could be regarded as a real wealthy family. His ancestors were Lu Zuqian, a famous scholar in Jinhua. If we continue to advance for seven or eight generations, Lu Yijian, the prime minister of Renzong, was their ancestor. Therefore, the Lu family could be regarded as a famous family.

As Jianyan moved south, many wealthy families in the north also moved south, mostly scattered in the Jiangsu, Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas to reproduce and survive. For example, Yanggong Town, including the Lü family and Old Man Liu, were not genuine southerners, but northerners. Local people from the Yang family, such as Yang Dayuan, were also constantly squeezed into living space by these wealthy families who moved there. Most of them were farmers and fishermen, and could only do some hard and tiring work to support their families.

For example, the Lü family, because there are many famous people from their ancestors, they have close contacts with many officials in the capital court and are also very familiar with the local officialdom in Qingyuan Prefecture.

Both Lu Guangxian and Lu Guangping also studied. Although they had never passed the imperial examination, they both spent money to donate their juren status. Lu Guangping was in charge of the industry at the wharf, while Lu Guangxian was in charge of the industry at the capital, and Lu family officials and businessmen were both in charge of it.

There was a regular and round glass bottle in front of Lu Yuntai, and a two-inch glass cup in his hand, with dark red wine inside, emitting a crystal clear light under the reflection of the candles.

"Since you can't find out the news, it seems that the money can only be spent!" The old man spoke after a long time of silence.

"Dad, I can't find out, but the two days are too short, and Yang Dayuan and others seem to be alert, hiding the matter without missing a trace. The few people I arranged to go to their village to investigate carefully, but no one knew about this. Ermazi and Ermao, who knew about it, have not seen each other in the past two days!" The second young master said with a somewhat ugly expression.

"Have you asked carefully about the people in the warehouse?" Lu Guangxian spoke.

"I have asked carefully, no one knows!" The second young master shook his head.

"Silly, I can't handle anything under my nose. If you are asked to go to the capital to take charge of the industry, I'm afraid you will be messed up!" Lu Guangxian was obviously dissatisfied with his second brother.

"Bang~" The second young master slapped the table and stood up, "What did you say? You want this or that in the capital, I will prepare any of them for you. I will eat meat, drink, and go shopping in brothels all day long, and accompany those princes to eat, drink and have fun..."

"What table do you slap? This matter can be obtained without spending money. Now you have made tens of thousands of yuan off, and you still have the face to say!" Lu Guangxian curled his lips and fought back.

"What's the argument?" Lu Yuntai scolded lightly, and the two sons who were like cockfighting mothers immediately became depressed and lowered their heads and dared not argue again.

"Guangping did not do anything wrong with this matter. The problem must not be with Yang Dayuan and others, but with Zhao Dalang, 50,000 yuan... What a big tone..." Lu Yuntai stroked his beard and looked solemn.

"Dad, do you think the fool is still giving advice behind you?" Lu Guangxian asked in confusion.

"You just came back from the capital. Maybe you haven't heard of it yet. Zhao Dalang was indeed a fool before. He often ran around in Yanggong Town and the docks. But recently it has been circulating everywhere. He was knocked out by the mud statue of the mountain god temple. When he woke up, he changed his appearance. Therefore, he talked about it and said that it was the mountain god appearing. The town's inner-level minister also went to find me and wanted to find some wealthy families to donate some money to rebuild the mountain god temple on Yanggong Mountain. However, this matter was in trouble for a few days and was left unresolved. It was another story that the mountain god showed no appearance. However, according to Guangping, Zhao Dalang was indeed not stupid. Moreover, the lion opened his mouth and bargained with Guangping. It can be seen that this matter is not groundless!"

"The mountain god appears..." Lu Guangxian was stunned for a moment and suddenly smiled on his face, "Dad, if it is the mountain god, it might be a good opportunity for us to become successful. As long as we report this to Prime Minister Ding and then pass it on to the government, we can treat him as a auspicious person to the capital. A young man from the mountain who knows nothing will naturally be grateful to us. We promised some money and beauty, and maybe he would tell us the method of repairing glass. In this way, we would not have both wealth and profit..."

"Not right!" Lu Yuntai shook his head and interrupted his eldest son. "I have thought about this. Your third uncle who opened a medicine shop told me a few days ago that Zhao Dalang was crazy and might have had a headache. He was hit by the mud statue of the mountain temple and was cured by accident. However, this problem may recur in the future. Once the mountain god appears and gets him to the capital, if he suddenly becomes ill again, he is afraid that not only will he not be able to gain both wealth and profit, but his Lu family will also be unable to get rid of the relationship. The crime of deceiving the emperor and the emperor is a big deal. I am afraid that Ding Daquan will take the blame for the first time with my Lu family!"

"What Dad said makes sense. The child just came back and didn't know the inside story. If this is the case, it would be a big trouble!" Lu Guang was stunned for a moment and nodded quickly.

"Dad, then how to deal with this matter? Tomorrow is the final deadline. If we don't spend money, we are afraid that they will sell the method of repairing glass to others soon!" Lu Guangping said with an ugly expression.

"It seems that I can only spend money, but 50,000 guan is definitely not enough. I am afraid that I, Lu, will not be able to afford it. They will not be able to eat it. If a few mud legs that have never seen the world are really not let go, if we pay, they will die!" Lu Yuntai's face turned slightly distorted when he said the last few words.

"Dad means..." The two sons looked up together.

"According to Guangping's statement yesterday, Zhao Dalang obviously knew that the money was a bit hot, and he was afraid that the night would be too long and dreamed, so he only gave us two days to consider it, and there was no price to kill. Since there was room for nothing, we naturally could not do it too much. Give them some money and get the method of repairing glass, but at the same time, we should warn them to rot in their stomachs. If my Lu family knows that others have learned this skill in the future, they will have to spit out all the money. If they can't get the money out, they will have to pay their lives... 50,000 jin, haha, it's hard to make money!"

"Hiss~" Lu Guangxian took a breath of cold air.

Lu Guangping was also scared by his father's sneer and shivered.

"Dad, then how much is it more appropriate to spend?" After a big move, Lu Guangping asked coldly on his back.

"It's too little to be unable to hold their mouths. We are naturally unwilling to accept it. The cost of our purchases in the capital every year is only tens of thousands of yuan, asking for a price everywhere, and paying back the money. After so many years of staying at the dock, do you still need to teach you this? Half is our bottom line. Ah An's wife in the warehouse? If you can talk about 20,000 yuan, I promise you to marry her home as a concubine!"

"Dad, take it seriously?" Lu Guangping stood up in surprise.

"Father-in-law, why are you spoiling Erlang so much? He has three concubines, let alone that woman is just a rough-handed and big-legged woman. She is stupid and stupid, and she has never married..." The young lady holding a wine pot next to her shouted dissatisfiedly.

"Shut up, if you hadn't been in the way of this, how could such a thing happen? Seeing that Prime Minister Ding's celebration day was approaching, the glass had not arrived yet, otherwise Guangxian would not have rushed back to urge him. Remember, you should not interfere in any industry in your home except for the restaurant, otherwise you would have to do this restaurant in the future!" Lu Yuntai scolded him with some annoyance.

"Don't be angry, father-in-law, please spare me this time!" The young lady was so scared that her face turned pale when she heard this. She quickly knelt down and kowtowed to admit her mistake.

"Hmph, the state-owned legal family has family rules, but it's not the turn of the Lu family to point fingers. In the future, assist Guangping in managing the money and account books of the restaurant. If you interfere randomly, I will not forgive you. Get up!" Lu Yuntai's face cleared a little, and the young lady stood up tremblingly.

"Dad, don't be angry. If my brother and sister didn't do it like this, I'd probably not know that there are people in the world who can repair glass. This is a bad thing that has turned into a good thing!" Lu Guangxian was trying to smooth things over, while his eyes secretly landed on the young lady's bulging chest. His eyes passed through the thin sack and close-fitting straps. A snow-white gully was filled with endless temptation under the light.

"Gudong~" Lu Guangxian held his Adam's apple and quickly picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

"Thank you, uncle, for your mercy, I did something wrong!" The young lady seemed to feel a fire-like gaze. While thanking her, she secretly glanced at Lu Guangxing with a charming look.

Lu Guangxian quickly pretended to reach out to support him. The couple touched each other's fingers, and there was more strangeness and joy in each other's eyes.

Lu Yuntai was still carefully observing the glass bottle on the table.

I didn't even know that my eldest son and my second wife were hooking up beside me.

Lu Guangping was also extremely excited and immersed in the fantasy of snatching someone else's wife.

Unconsciously, his elder brother and his wife were already having sex with him.
