Chapter 4848 Those who don’t come will regret it
Tianxia Pavilion.
The few nobles who finally figured out what the joint-stock system was, under the leadership of the British public Zhao Shang, the others paid their share of the money and each held a part of the shares.
Of course, the largest share was given to the royal family.
Qi Xingyun himself took one-third, Yang Ruoqing took one-fourth, and the remaining part was given to several nobles to divide according to how much they contributed. Among them, the British public Zhao Shang contributed the most, a full 150,000 taels, and Zhongqin Bo Lu Tao contributed the least, a symbolic one tael.
However, Yang Ruoqing still gave him a share.
It seems very few now, but in the future, when trade routes are opened and new textile machines are mass-produced, it will bring a huge amount of wealth.
"Those who don't come will regret it. They don't know what kind of opportunity they gave up to make a fortune."
After leaving the door and entering the carriage, the British Duke Zhao Shang was in his heart sigh.
He is the emperor's father-in-law, and he is also the inheritor of the country. What he got this time was actually the emperor's instruction. Of course, whether he makes more or less depends on his own vision.
He is extremely optimistic about this World Business Alliance.
Mrs. Zhongyongbo Yang Ruoqing has a very strong ability to make money in business. Others use their strong capital and family background to do business, but Yang Ruoqing relies on her skills and ability to produce products. Even if she later has capital and background, , which is also won by relying on one's own ability.
It is unreasonable for such a strange woman not to succeed.
With this Clippers spearheaded by the royal family and helmed by Yang Ruoqing, the future of being a popular and spicy drinker is just around the corner.
After all, the Duke’s Mansion also needs to eat.
There are thousands of people in the whole house, spending money and food, it is really no joke.
“I won’t be so worried in the future.”
Thinking of those concubines, Zhao Shang felt that he could finally show off his glory again, and this time he spent most of his savings. Come out, it's definitely a good deal.
……
Sitting in the carriage, Zhongqin Bo Lu Tao felt like he was in another world.
It's like a dream.
He got shares and got errands. In addition, Yang Ruoqing also sent someone to follow him to settle the debt.
He suddenly felt the urge to burst into tears. Perhaps, his fate had really changed.
He secretly made up his mind that this time and from now on, he must do his errands properly.
The carriage is neither slow nor fast.
Along the way, the man sitting opposite never spoke.
He knows his name.
Xingyun is said to be Yang Ruoqing’s right-hand man.
It didn’t seem too surprising, but Lu Tao didn’t mean to underestimate him.
The carriage entered Nantuo Street.
Children who had been playing in the streets took shelter.
Because carriages are only owned by wealthy families.
The poor cannot offend the nobles, and they deserve to be killed if they don’t hide.
“Look, isn’t that Lu Tao?”
“It’s really him, is he developed?”
"It seems that we have met a noble man."
"Let me tell you, Lu Tao is a loyal and brave uncle passed down from our ancestors, and his feng shui is excellent."
"Li married him. What a blessing, I will be your lady from now on "
"I remember you said before that Li's fortune was poor and that he died early? Maybe it’s a sign of early death.”
Lu Tao's mood fluctuated as he heard the comments. This is the reason why wealth never travels at night, and wealth must return to its hometown.
I came back, put on my royal clothes, and rode in a luxurious and exquisite carriage. I immediately became taller and taller. I was no longer the poor and down-to-earth count, but a truly despised count. .
He couldn't wait to see Li as soon as possible and tell her the good news.
As he approached the courtyard where he lived, he saw from a distance that the courtyard door was wide open, and a cry of surprise came out.
That was Li's voice.
Lu Tao's heart thumped, and he immediately said: "Stop the carriage quickly."
The carriage slowly stopped, and Lu Tao hurriedly jumped out of the carriage.
Xingyun followed closely behind. He was the leader of the secret guards and was originally busy with affairs, but Yang Ruoqing ordered that Lu Tao's matter was the most important matter at the moment and must be handled satisfactorily without any mistakes.
Lu Tao broke into the courtyard and saw Li falling to the ground at first sight.
The front door of the house was half crooked, and several burly men were rummaging through boxes and cabinets.
"Stop, what do you do?" Lu Tao shouted angrily.
"Don't you have any idea? Paying back debts is a matter of course. How long has it been since you paid back?" The leading man had a sinister face and a voice like thunder.
Lu Tao put his arm around Li Shi and helped Li Shi up who fell.
There was anger in his eyes, and this time he was really angry.
"I am the Earl who inherited the founding heritage of the country. You have violated the laws of Qi by breaking into my mansion without permission..." Lu Tao said loudly.
"Laws? I only know how to repay debts. Your family owes our head 10,000 taels of silver, and the interest is compounded. Now, it is already 15,000 taels. Since you are the uncle, then Pay back the money." The big man sneered.
What uncle, a hairless wild animal, just a chicken.
Before Lu Tao could speak.
"Fifteen thousand taels in total?" A strange voice sounded.
"Yes, who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am, what's important is that I have money, but did you bring your contract?"
"Contract? You kid You're playing with me, right?" The flesh on the big man's face was trembling.
Contract? This is a gambling debt, and even if it has a contract, it is not protected by law.
If we really follow the laws of Daqi, we can refuse to pay back the bet, but in reality it is impossible. This kind of casinos are run by powerful people. If anyone dares to refuse to pay back, the consequences can be imagined. You know, it's possible for the whole family to carry Shen Tan on their backs.
"The silver note, fifteen thousand taels, take it, you can go."
Xingyun didn't make any excuse, just took out the silver note.
The big man took the bank note, and his suspicious eyes dimmed.
The silver notes are real. He can take out fifteen thousand taels of silver notes in one go. He is no small person. People like him are the most clever and will never offend rich people.
"Sir, the banknotes have been counted, can we leave?" All the ferocity on the big man's face disappeared, replaced by a flattering joke.
But that big pie-like face looks particularly ugly when he smiles.
After a group of big men left, Lu Tao just said: "Brother, is this the money given to them?"
Lu Tao was a little reluctant, but Yang Ruoqing originally paid the money. It was hard for him to say anything.
"Don't worry, madam's money is not that easy to get. Since you take it, you have to pay the price." Xingyun said lightly.
Of course Yang Ruoqing ordered him to take out the silver coins so happily.
Behind this gambling debt, the so-called boss is the boss of the Huaiyuan Gambling House, and the person standing behind the Huaiyuan Gambling House is Wei Xinsheng.
Marquis Wei of Liyang is reborn!
As an in-law to the Ning family, this person has problems and the water is deep.
Yang Ruoqing wanted to see what the mystery was.
