At noon, Sun Deng held a banquet to greet Lu Yu in the restaurant of the villa, and the three of them sat at a table.

"Please, sir." Sun Deng toasted Lu Yu first, "Long time no see, I wonder how your iron and iron business is doing recently?"

"Nowadays, there are fewer wars and smooth trade routes, so business is still OK." Lu Yu said.

"Brother Xiong asked Mr. to come here this time, because he also wanted to re-discuss Nanshan's business with him." Sun Deng said with the vegetables.

"Oh?" Lu Yu looked at Cao Xiong, "Sir, please tell me."

"Mr. Lu, the iron ore factory at the foot of Nanshan is being upgraded, and the efficiency of ironmaking in the new factory has increased. Now, not only the output of iron ore has increased, but the quality of iron is also slightly better than before."

"May I ask you, how much Nanshan Iron can produce now?" Lu Yu asked Cao Xiong in surprise.

"The new machinery has just been put into use, and the factory is also gradually being upgraded. It is estimated that the daily output will not be less than [-] shi!" Cao Xiong looked at Lu Yu and said.

"Eighteen hundred stones?" Lu Yu's eyes brightened.

This amount is nearly double that of the previous one, and it seems that there is still room for improvement. In this way, it seems that Jiangdong's iron and steel business can be done even more.

He thought for a moment, then looked at Cao Xiong, "I do business with you, so naturally I don't dare to bargain too much. If you are willing, I would like to add 100 million yuan per thousand stones, and 100 million yuan per thousand stones to buy iron from Nanshan. ,how?"

Cao Xiong thought for a moment, then exchanged a glance with Sun Deng, "What do you think, brother Deng?"

Sun Deng first showed a bit embarrassed look, then looked at Lu Yu and said, "Mr. Lu is a great businessman in the world, very reputable, and I am from Jiangdong. I think I can do this business with you."

Chapter 1522 Today is only about business!

In fact, in private, Sun Deng sent people to investigate the price of iron and steel, and also sent people disguised as merchants to test the prices of the eight major families.

After getting the results, at most someone is willing to add 2000 to 80 yuan to the [-] million yuan.

Lu Yu is willing to add 100 million yuan, and Cao Xiong is already very satisfied with this price.

"Then I also agree with the price of sir." Cao Xiong raised his glass and said, "For the success of our business, let's drink!"

The three of them drank to the brim.

"Brother Xiong and Mr. Lu are here today, we must drink a few more glasses." Sun Deng glanced at the two, and the servants also began to bring up the wine, "Although the villa is small, if you get drunk, you can stay in the villa for a while." Today, I will bring some purple bamboo shoots back tomorrow by the way."

"It's an honor for Lu." Lu Yu said, holding up his glass.

After drinking for three rounds, the room was already full of alcohol.

Cao Xiong felt that he was almost drunk, looking at Lu Yu's face, he was indeed a person who had been in the mall for a long time, and he could drink well.

"Sir, you just came back from Outer Continent this trip, but did you come back from Yingzhou?" Cao Xiong looked at Lu Yu.

"That's right, Yingzhou overseas, and Chang Hai Lao Dun, after receiving the news from the young master, he didn't have a moment's rest after returning this time, so he came to Jiankang overnight." Lu Yu said while drinking.

"Mr. is really lucky." Sun Deng said to Lu Yu, holding up his wine glass, "Sir, have another drink."

After Lu Yu finished drinking, he looked at Cao Xiong silently, a little strangely, "Is there something bothering you, Mr. Xiong?"

"Hey, Mr. Lu doesn't know something." Sun Deng said, "Half a month ago, the Japanese from Yingzhou led a fleet to invade Weihai. Brother Xiong personally led the troops to calm down the Japanese invasion temporarily."

"Oh, there is such a thing?" Lu Yu was a little surprised.

Lu Yu heard that there were Japanese people in Weihai, Qingzhou who made rebellion. They went ashore to plunder and killed many ordinary people.

Unexpectedly, Cao Cao in Yecheng was alarmed by this matter so quickly!

"Sir, you have been to Yingzhou many times, how much do you know about Yingzhou?" Cao Xiong looked at Lu Yu with his lips pursed.

Lu Yu stroked his beard and said, "Yingzhou is surrounded by the sea. It is good at planting but not good at fighting, so the grain production is abundant, and many people live in fishing. There are many tribes in Yingzhou, and their strengths are also uneven. Because there are many battles among the tribes, the folk customs are quite tough, and most of the Japanese soldiers are also out of this. At the end of the year, I heard that the tribes elected a leader, and the queen was named Himiko. The Japanese plague in Weihai may be It has something to do with this queen."

"Queen Himiko." Cao Xiong muttered this title, "I fought against Japanese warships last time. Although the Japanese warships had many masts and small masts, they were fast, and all the arrows shot by the Japanese were equipped with iron coils. No Do you know if Mr. Lu also has iron and steel business with Yingzhou?"

"This..." Lu Yu was clearly drunk, and couldn't keep his mouth shut, "Yingzhou Shaotie, the Lu family does have iron business with many big tribes in Yingzhou."

"Yingzhou is far away. Although the master has a lot of money, he might not be able to cross the river without a strong navy." Cao Xiong said curiously, "I don't know how the master did business with Yingzhou?"

"This..." Lu Yu hesitated a little, "In business and business, I'm afraid it's not convenient to talk about this kind of thing."

"Sir, don't worry, we're not talking about politics today, but about business." Cao Xiong smiled and took a few manuscripts from the servants behind, and handed them to Lu Yu, "This is the blueprint of the newly designed factory machinery , Nanshan’s new iron-making machinery is designed according to this manuscript. This manuscript can be regarded as a meeting gift from me to Mr.

Lu Yu accepted the manuscript Cao Xiong handed over in surprise, and then looked at the blueprint design on it.

Chapter 1523 The business goes through the Zhou family

"The mechanical design on the manuscript is more refined, and many roulettes have been added. At the same time, it has a design that is close to mountains and rivers."

"The design of the blueprint is detailed, and it can be seen that it is made by everyone!" Lu Yu praised.

[In the live broadcast room, Zhu Youxiao proudly patted his thigh! 】

[Zhu Youxiao: Look, what is a person who really understands goods! 】

[Yang Guang: The design of the roulette was not inspired by my five-tooth battleship. 】

【Genghis Khan: I can't understand this at all, and everything I don't understand is useless. 】

[Li Shimin: I still doubt whether this wooden machine can really turn. 】

[Ying Zheng: I bet this person won't accept the manuscript. Are you trying to trick him by buying him a drink? 】

[Cao Xiong: Of course, only others have ever invited me to drink. 】

When Lu Yu saw this, his face immediately relaxed, and his brows and eyes lit up.

Lu Yu immediately put the manuscript into his sleeve, took a sip of wine, and pursed his lips.

In business talk business, if you receive a gift, you naturally have to express it.

"To be honest, my lord, the naval ships in Jiangdong are all under the control of the army, and no one can touch them. The iron and steel business of the Lu family and Yingzhou is done through the Zhou family in the city." Lu Yu smiled and said Cao Xiong said, "The shopping mall is like a battlefield. If Lu Mou said one more thing, it would be too much to say."

Zhou family?

Cao Xiong's first reaction was to think of Zhou Yu who was pissed off.

There is no need for Lu Yu to say more about the relationship between the Zhou family and the navy Jiang Fang.

"Thank you, Mr. Lu, for speaking out." Cao Xiong raised his wine bottle, "Today, Mr. Lu can have as much fun as he likes in the villa."

After the three of them continued to have a simple meal, they each went to rest.

After Cao Xiong arranged Lu Yu, he went back to his room and rubbed his temples.

This Lu Yu is more drinkable than I imagined...

But today is also considered a harvest.

Not only the business was negotiated, but also a manuscript was exchanged for a very important piece of information.

Cao Xiong faintly felt that there was something wrong with the Zhou family.

Will the current Zhou family still help Cao Xiong in business?

Hard to say.

Just as Cao Xiong was thinking, a servant came outside the door and said, "Young Master Xiong, Miss is here."

Cao Xiong stopped his hands for a moment, Sun Shangxiang is here?

Ever since Cao Xiong escaped from his mansion in the city, he has been living in the summer resort in Nanshan.

Sun Deng said that he stayed with Cao Xiong for two more days, but in fact he did not dare to return to the city because his cronies had not been released.

"Let her wait for me in the room, just say that I'm eating in the lobby!" Cao Xiong quickly stood up and said, "Also, take me to change clothes and take a shower."

Sun Shangxiang brought two maidservants to the outside of the courtyard, just in time to meet the servants who went out, "Where is Cao Xiong?"

"Young Master Xiong is inviting Mr. Lu to dinner in the lobby, and he said that he asked Miss to stay in the room for a while, and he will arrive later." The servant said to Sun Shangxiang.

"Take me to his house." Sun Shangxiang looked at the servant and said.

After Cao Xiong changed and washed his clothes, he came to his residence alone.

Standing in the yard, Cao Xiong first smelled himself for the smell of alcohol, and only after he was sure that he didn't have the courage to go into the house.

"Xiang'er!" Cao Xiong called her name and was about to enter the door.

But as soon as he got to the door, the door opened with a 'click'.

Sun Shangxiang was staring directly into Cao Xiong's eyes!

This look made Cao Xiong feel guilty for a while.

"Have you been drinking?" Sun Shangxiang asked him.

"No!" Cao Xiong said firmly, "Absolutely not!"

Chapter 1524 Zhou Fang's plan!

"Really?" Sun Shangxiang looked at Cao Xiong suspiciously, and sniffed his face. "Then why do I smell alcohol?"

"That's on Sun Deng." Cao Xiong turned Sun Shangxiang around and pushed him in.

"I haven't seen you for such a long time, let me take a good look at you." Cao Xiong coaxed Sun Shangxiang.

"Hmph!" Sun Shangxiang didn't like this, "I won't let you stay with Sun Deng next time, you've brought Sun Deng to pieces!"

"How can I have it?" Cao Xiong said innocently.

Sun Shangxiang glanced at him, then sat on the couch angrily, without saying a word.

Cao Xiong hurried to the table to pour tea for Sun Shangxiang, and handed it to Sun Shangxiang.

"Oh, you don't even know what happened in the city." Sun Shangxiang sighed, and took the teacup Cao Xiong handed over, "I just knew that I would hide in the villa and not go back."

Cao Xiong looked at Sun Shangxiang in surprise, "What happened in the city?"

"Something has happened!" Sun Shangxiang turned his head to look at him, "These two days, Zhou Fang of the Zhou family has joined forces with several old generals to go to the shuffle. Please ask my brother to sever the alliance with Wei, and please order him to go north and attack Hefei!"

"Zhou Fang?" Cao Xiong looked at Sun Shangxiang in surprise, "What name does he serve as a naval captain?"

"His rank is not enough, but Zhou Yu used to be the governor of Jiangdong, so he went to the mansions of several old generals a few days ago, just to persuade them." Sun Shangxiang hugged Cao Xiong's arm and said .

Cao Xiong pursed his lips, thinking of countermeasures.

It seems that this Zhou Fang is not simple!

A few days ago, even Lu Meng and Lu Xun went to fight in front of Sun Quan, Zhou Fang was able to hold his breath.

This Zhou Fang was much more tolerant than his father.

However, things have not reached the point of no return.

Cao Xiong held Sun Shangxiang's hand, "Xiang'er, don't worry, I will accompany you to find Lu Su at night. He will definitely help your brother."

"Okay." Sun Shangxiang looked at Cao Xiong and nodded.

"Now, are you not angry?" Cao Xiong looked at Sun Shangxiang and said.

"I'm not worried about you!" Sun Shangxiang looked at Cao Xiong and said, "You don't even know what that Zhou Fang said. He even said that he wants my brother to order you to be detained and used as a hostage!"

"I'm not afraid!" Cao Xiong said while holding Sun Shangxiang's hand.

No matter what Zhou Fang did, it was to force Jiangdong and Northern Wei to go to war.

As long as the battle is fought, Zhou Fang will have plenty of opportunities to use tricks on himself.

Then let him come.

There was a sudden sound of hasty footsteps outside the house, "Brother Xiong!"

Sun Deng hurried over.

Cao Xiong opened the door, and Sun Deng greeted him and said loudly, "Brother Xiong, hide for a while, Auntie is here!"

After Sun Deng saw that his cronies were released, he immediately came to inform Cao Xiong.
