I opened a mall in ancient times
Chapter 74 The First Day of Store Opening
Lu Mingcheng and Luo Chaochao naturally have the confidence and capital to fight in the ring.
In his mind, this wasn't even a ring fight, but a naked bullying of the weak.
Luo Chaochao's shop is indeed one of the best in Kangzhou City, but compared to the whole north, the whole Sheng country, it is nothing, it is a little ant that their Lu family can crush easily, he is willing to be serious Opening a store is to show Luo Chao Chao's respect.
If it wasn't for the official background behind Luo Chaochao, he wouldn't even bother to use this method to directly unite with the local business houses in Kangzhou City to suppress Luo Chaochao.
He does know that Luo Chaochao is a cooperative relationship with some commercial firms, but there are so many chambers of commerce in Kangzhou City, is it possible that all the bosses are used to Luo Chaochao?
There will always be one or two who are jealous, and as long as I give benefits to the bosses of these chambers of commerce, they will be able to make themselves a leader. All these shitty things are thrown on other people, he is still an innocent Lu family member.
It was also because Zhou Jiedushi stood behind Luo Chaochao, otherwise Lu Mingcheng felt that Luo Chaochao was not worthy to be his opponent.
To be one's own opponent is simply flattering him.
As for Lu Liang?
What is that?
Lu Liang is not considered a very important person in the Lu family, not even an important person in the branch family, otherwise he would not just stay in the north, do business in such a remote city, and show off his power in such a remote city, not yet. He knows how to do things, but he was caught by someone and tried to take this opportunity to bring him down.
Lu Mingcheng naturally investigated Lu Liang before he came, and also knew about Liangzi between Lu Liang and Luo Chaochao.
This guy Lu Liang made his tactics too obvious, bullied the local embroidered women too much, and happened to be met by Luo Chaochao. He dragged the people from Youzhou City to Kangzhou City, cutting off Lu Liang's fortune .
It's just such a holiday.
He actually wanted to find someone to set fire to Luo Chaochao's factory.
If you want to burn it, you can burn it, but you didn't know how to clean your hands and feet, but someone found out your flaws, and there were all the witnesses and material evidence, so you were thrown into the prison directly.
Stupid.
As for the rest...
He didn't care at all.
Of course Lu Liang wanted to get him out, but before getting him out, Lu Mingcheng planned to let him reflect on himself in the dungeon, to reflect on how stupid he was.
But now Luo Chaoxi said that he would not say such things after learning about Lu Liang's affairs. Could it be that Lu Liang was arrested because he offended him?
Wasn't Lu Liang arrested because he offended Luo Chaochao?
Even if it was serious, it wouldn't be such a fuss to offend Zhou Jiedushi and Wei Taiwei, right?
People in small places still have too little vision, and think that Zhou Jiedu's support can make him look like a tiger, but in fact it's not that serious at all. Spend a little more money to find connections, and you can get people out.
That's what he said, but Luo Chaoxi still has to give face, so Lu Mingcheng also apologized for Lu Liang: "Lu Liang is stupid, and he doesn't know himself, so he should be punished as a matter of course, and suffering some hardships in prison this time will also allow him to have a long memory. " Lu Mingcheng said, "I don't think there should be any necessary contact with him whether our Lu family wants to open a store in Kangzhou City, right?"
long memory.
Is it just a long memory?
Lu Mingcheng wouldn't think that this is something that can be settled by spending money or finding a relationship.
At this time, Luo Chaochao began to suspect that the rich people he knew were fake. He felt that the Lu family members were all mentally ill, but when the other party really made a very stupid move, he would still doubt himself.
I wonder if my opponent is the kind of man from a wealthy family with two people who have [-] minds.
"Really? Then there is no connection." Seeing that the other party didn't seem to believe it, Luo Chaoxi simply smiled and stopped talking about it.
It doesn't matter, stupid is stupid, the more stupid the opponent is, the happier he will be.
"But I still have to disappoint you. I will not give up, let alone sell the textile factory to you. You should give up."
"Don't you think you can fight against our Lu family?" Lu Mingcheng was a little annoyed when he saw that Luo Chao Chao was still obsessed with his obsession after talking so much.
"Why should I fight against the Lu family? I'm just doing what I'm supposed to do. I'm doing business as before. It doesn't hinder anyone and I don't go out of my way to trouble others. As long as you can do a good job, you can take care of me. I won’t say anything more if I steal away the source of customers from here, since doing business depends on one’s own ability.”
"Don't be ignorant, I've given you many chances." Lu Mingcheng frowned, and then stretched his brows as if he had thought of something again: "If you continue to be so stubborn, you will only end up in poverty. Even if you beg me to give you another chance, I won't give you another chance."
Luo Chaoxi saw that the other party couldn't make sense, so he simply stood up and prepared to leave, "If Boss Lu insists on this, then I don't need to waste time with Boss Lu. If you want to fight in the ring, you can continue to fight, and I will accompany you at any time."
After speaking, he gave a simple salute to Lu Mingcheng, and turned to leave.
Why is Luo Chao Chao afraid?
Whether the opponent wants to fight a price war, or wants to fight a quality war, Luo Chaochao will accompany you.There is an entire modern society market behind him, even for high-end embroidery, he also has Ju Mong and his little spiders.
He doesn't want to block all cloth merchants' sources of income, nor is he willing to homogenize the market, so he only targets the low-end and middle-end markets.
But if Lu Mingcheng wants to confront him now, he will not be afraid.
He has an absolute advantage in both reserves and tricks, not to mention that the other party is already in trouble, and now he looks arrogant, but he has already lost his own protection. It will only take three months at most, and the Lu family will be in trouble after three months. Whether to stay in Kangzhou City and fight with him or go back to the south to protect himself depends on his own choice.
This matter is not simple, but it is also very big.
If a few years ago, when Emperor Qing's foundation was not stable, the Lu family would be fine if such an incident occurred, but it is different now. Now Emperor Qing has secured his throne and has higher pursuits, not just maintaining stability, There is also development and progress.Originally, the Chen family danced on the cordon, stepping on Emperor Qing's bottom line countless times to test frantically. Emperor Qing never found a suitable opportunity to do it, but now, the Lu family gave Emperor Qing a reason.
Even if there is no way to completely bring down the Lu family, it still gave Emperor Qing a chance to sanction the Lu family. He seized this opportunity and ruthlessly tore a piece of flesh from the Lu family to reduce the influence of the Lu family in business. By the way, scrape oil and water from the opponent to fill the treasury.
After the Lu family is weak, they can take the opportunity to support other businessmen, so that the Lu family will not control the economic lifeline of the south.
There are so many businessmen in the south, without the Lu family, there will be other more valuable and more obedient families who will become Emperor Qing's vassals.
Even Luo Chao may become a candidate.
"I hope you won't come crying and begging me to let you go when you lose your reputation." When Luo Chaoxi turned and walked to the door, Lu Mingcheng finally spoke harshly.
Luo Chao Chao opened the door and walked out as if he didn't hear it.
Lu Mingcheng watched Luo Chaoxi go out, and saw the tall man in black asking something in a low voice, and then the two got into the carriage and left.
Lu Liang?
Lu Mingcheng chanted the name, carefully sorted out the ins and outs of this matter, and didn't think there was anything wrong.
Whether it's a feud with Luo Chaoxi at the beginning, or resenting the other party's obstruction and wanting to burn down the other party's factory, it is reasonable and reasonable to accidentally leave a handle and be sent to prison in the end, so what is the key to making Luo Chaoxi so determined? Will you win?
Is it really just that the country people don't know much?
"Go and find out about Lu Liang." Lu Mingcheng thought for a long time before he could figure it out, and then called his shadow guard: "Go and look at Luo Chao Chao, and then find out about Lu Liang, I want everything about this matter The ins and outs, write it down and hand it over to me.”
He wanted to see what was going on with this so-called Lu Liang.
The subordinates led away, and Lu Mingcheng watched Luo Chaoxi take a sip of the untouched tea, and swept the teacup and the tea inside to the ground.
The better tea sets were smashed to the ground, and the light green tea seeped into the dark wooden floor.
When Lu Mingcheng finally calmed down his emotions, adjusted his attitude and went downstairs to continue entertaining other guests, he found that there were a lot fewer guests on the first floor, and those who stayed were already paying their bills and planning to leave.
Seeing that there are basically not too many things on the shelves, it doesn't seem like they have already bought and left, and there are no new customers outside.
What's going on here?
what just happened?
Seeing Lu Mingcheng coming down, the shopkeeper immediately stepped forward and said, "Boss, the customers don't know what's going on, so they will leave without buying anything."
Originally, everyone was in a good mood before Luo Chaoxi came, and it was still flattering, but after Luo Chaoxi came, these people turned out to be as if they had been demoted. They didn't even plan to buy anything, so they were leaving?
They seemed to be scrupulous about something and didn't give a clear reason, but the meaning was very clear, they just didn't want to stay in the store anymore, and they didn't want to buy anything.
"Didn't you ask why?"
"I asked, but it was all an excuse, saying something happened at home..." The shopkeeper also shook his head. It was because they couldn't figure out the reason. It's intriguing.
Couldn't it be because of Lu Liang again?
"Go and check! Go and check for me! If you can't find out, don't want any money." Lu Mingcheng sneered.
After all, it was a trick of local snakes like Luo Chaochao.
It is also because the strong dragon does not suppress the local snake, and the power of the Lu family cannot reach so far.Luo Chao Chao, this inconspicuous little thing, began to do his best.
Since Luo Chaochao's methods are so dirty, don't blame him for being rude.
------------------------------
"The Lu family's brains are really sick." Luo Chaoxi got into the car, and after letting the driver drive, he couldn't help complaining to Lu Juanchi, "Don't they do market research before opening the store? If they do market research I will definitely not come here to open a shop, I must hurry up and pack up my things and run away."
Now the higher-ups haven't had an outbreak because the upper-level people still don't know the situation. When Wei Taiwei finishes his work and takes Lu Liang to Beijing, this matter will not be resolved.
Luo Chaochao didn't need to do anything, just wait until Taiwei Wei left for the capital.
And when the time comes, all the money Lu Mingcheng invested in Kangzhou City will be in vain, no matter what he wants to do, he has no conditions.
Even if there is no such stubble, it is mostly a fool's job to invest such a large amount of money in a small city like Kangzhou City to build a luxurious cloth shop, and it does not depend on whether the market needs it or not.
"They have been paralyzed by money for a long time, and they forgot not to challenge the tolerance limit of the superiors." Lu Juanchi didn't take it seriously, "It's still better to be careful that the surname Lu can't take it easy to trouble you, their brain circuits are relatively clear , in case the item can’t be sold, it will be broken if you think it’s your tricks to trouble you.”
"You're right." Luo Chaoxi felt that what Lu Juanchi said made sense.
With the brains of the Lu family, it is very possible to do such a thing, so they decided to take some precautionary measures for themselves.
Compared to this, Lu Juanchi cared more about the clothes materials that Luo Chaochao bought for him. Although he said he wanted Zhu Meng to make clothes for him, it was not impossible to fight for it.
"Let Ju Meng do it?" Lu Juanchi asked.
Luo Chaoxi nodded: "I don't know how to make clothes, why don't you go to the city and find a tailor with good craftsmanship to make you a suit?"
"Actually, you can try to use spiritual power." Lu Juanchi fought for the benefits for himself, "Spiritual power can do many things, just haven't you been promoted recently? Not just drawing symbols, but you can also try other things, spiritual power can do to many things."
Luo Chaochao looked at the fabric in his hand: "I thought spiritual power was mostly used for fighting, but could it be used for making clothes?"
In the novels he has read, it has never been said that spiritual power can be used to make clothes.
"Of course, I will teach you."
Lu Juanchi actually taught Luo Chaochao how to make clothes.Luo Chaochao only bought a horse of black material, and after scrapping it twice, he finally managed to make an ordinary long coat that looked good.
This is because the pattern of ancient costumes is relatively loose, and they don't pay so much attention to pattern, otherwise Luo Chaochao would not be able to make a suit even if he learned it for a month.
"Forget it, forget it, there's no way to wear it at all." Luo Chaoxi had a big head, and wanted to take back the clothes, but Lu Juanchi quickly snatched them away.
"It doesn't matter, after all, it's the first time I'm not skilled in making it." Naturally, Lu Juanchi couldn't let Luo Chaoxi take the clothes back. After grabbing them, he folded them and put them in his own space. Luo Chaoxi couldn't grab them. Passing him, he watched Lu Juanchi put away the finished clothes and the leftover fabric together.
Forget it.
Just let him take it.
It is estimated that I want to keep the black history and use it to tease myself later.
"I'll find Zhu Meng to practice my skills after a while, and then I'll make you a new set." Luo Chaoxi set a flag for himself, and after he finished speaking, he felt that it was a bit bad for him to say so, and wanted to change his words again. : "Forget it, the clothes I make don't look good, or—"
"It's pretty, I'll remember it, and you can do it again after you practice more." Lu Juanchi grasped the opportunity accurately, and made Luo Chaochao owe another promise.
Luo Chaoxi thought for a while and seemed to be indifferent.It is not certain when he will learn it.
On the contrary, Lu Juanchi looked very satisfied.
The two didn't go back to the shop directly, but went to the big hydraulic spinning wheel.
The water-powered spinning wheel is too big for this day and age to fit in a house.Of course, the most important thing is that it is very troublesome to lay a foundation in the water because it is built by the water, so there are only buildings like sheds for shelter from the wind and rain. Once it rains and the wind blows, it may not work, so now the workers have To build a new large water-powered spinning wheel, we must find a way to hide the two old ones in the house. The water wheel is still outside, so this must not be hidden.
When Luo Chaochao came, the place was still working in an orderly manner.
In addition, many farmers are digging foundations on the land from the river to the textile factory.
This is the land that will be enclosed and expanded into a new textile factory. Such a large project would have taken a long time to complete in the past, but now it is the slack season, and given the money, all the farmers who have nothing to do come to work.
Here, not only are the wages paid more, but also the food is included. Everyone works very hard. In just a few days, the foundation has almost been dug, and the load-bearing beams have already begun.
Everything is very orderly, but just in case, Zhou Jiedu specially sent someone to watch over it, especially near the large hydraulic spinning wheel, we must strictly guard against it, for fear that there will be another person with a wicked heart like Lu Liang Come and set the fire.
Even Luo Chaochao ordered his monsters to patrol regularly. He was also afraid that the people of the Lu family would take advantage of this time to attack the factory, and he was also worried that the simple protective formation would not be able to defend against it.
After Wu Gensheng's incident happened, Luo Chaoxi asked his employees to re-screen the employees in the factory. If you don't check, you don't know. After checking, you found a few more people who originally wanted to do it, but later because of Wu Gensheng was an undercover agent who was frightened by this incident.
They are all old people who have been in the Luochao factory since the beginning, and one of them has even become the team leader.
Some of these people were inserted from the beginning, and some were bought after they came to the factory.This type is hard to guard against. If you don't check it thoroughly, you won't be able to see it at all.
Luo Chaochao felt that it was really boring to be a factory and beware of the betrayal of the employees under him, but the hydraulic spinning wheel and the current main pedal spinning wheel were indeed classified as secrets and could not be revealed until Wei Taiwei left.
Just keep it up for a few more months!
The two walked around outside and returned to the shop again.Everyone could tell that Lu Juanchi, who was usually cold-faced, was very happy after going out with the boss, and even brought them gifts for the first time.
Although the owner spent money to buy it, it was an improvement anyway. Luo Chaoxi checked the business situation of the store and made sure there was nothing wrong, so he went to the studio to find Zhu Mong.
It was rare for Ju Meng to see Luo Chaoxi during this time, and he was a little strange, "Why are you free to come to me today?"
Wasn't he so busy during this time that he hit the back of his head with his feet, how could he remember to come to him when he didn't even have time to practice?
"I want to ask if you have any new cloth here." Standing at the door, Luo Chaochao asked Zhu Mong across a room full of spider threads and silk threads.
"Yes, yes. Do you want to make new clothes for yourself? If you want to make new clothes, you can go to Kong Xiao directly. The cloth that suits you recently has been sent to Kong Xiao."
A few months have passed, the studios of Ju Meng and Kong Xiao have transformed into the way they are most used to.
The shelves near the wall are full of ready-made cloth, and there is a very long table in the center, which is full of thread packs and various tools that he does not know. They ran around in the spacious room, and some even ran past the door, wanting to climb onto Luo Chaoxi.
"Why don't you come in?" Zhu Meng said for a long time, only to find that Luo Chaochao was still standing at the door and didn't come in.
"These spider threads and threads in your room..."
"Oh, the spider silk is a blindfold, you can just walk in." Zhu Meng said, "That guy Kong Xiao always comes up to bother me, so I made a blindfold for him, shut him down as soon as he came in."
Luo Chaoxi was speechless, but he still carefully avoided the silk threads that were pulled everywhere, and passed through the corner with difficulty.
"You haven't said who you're going to make it for." Ju Meng stood by the table, looking for a suitable cloth for Luo Chaoxi that was ready but not yet given to Kong Xiao, "This?"
What he took out was ai-green cloth. Luo Chaochao likes to wear light-colored clothes, so when Zhu Meng weaves and embroiders, he always chooses light-colored cloth, and it is the same now.
"No, I want black."
"Black?" Ju Mong wondered, "Didn't you never wear black?"
"It's not for me." Luo Chaoxi buried his head in the search on the other side, and then chose a black one with crane patterns, "That's it."
As soon as he turned his head, he saw Ju Mong approaching curiously, "For whom? Which man? Do we know each other? What's your relationship?"
Girls seldom wear black clothes. There is a high probability that they are men, but I don't know if they know each other.
"Why are you so gossip? It's Lu Juanchi."
Ju Mong was stunned, "You make clothes for him?"
Before, everyone had privately speculated that there was a slight relationship between the boss and Lu Juanchi, but after thinking about it, it seemed that they were just ordinary friends.Probably because Luo Chaoxi was too busy, and Lu Juanchi was also busy with other store affairs, so he didn't usually see each other very much, and even if they did, it was in a hurry and on business, more like Lu Juanchi was single-minded.
However, he didn't know that Lu Juanchi's body was in the Luochao Sea of Consciousness, and the two chatted every day, not as indifferent as outsiders saw.
But every time the two of them come out, the atmosphere is really subtle.
People chasing after the boss can fill up the whole store, but Luo Chaochao himself doesn't realize it, that is, how many of those who come to the store every day to buy things come here purely with the idea of buying something?
Originally, Zhu Mong and the others thought that Luo Chaochao and Lu Juanchi probably behaved in the same way, but judging by what Luo Chaochao meant...
Don't really have a problem, right?
Making clothes for Luo Chaochao by himself is not counted. After all, he and Kong Xiao are both Luo Chaochao's clerks, and they make a living in Luo Chaochao's hands. Although it is true that they do it voluntarily, there is a job here to cover them.
But now that Luo Chaochao suddenly wants to make clothes for Lu Juanchi, it's not the kind where subordinates do work for bosses...
"Yeah, I made a set for him before, but I feel too bad, I want to learn from you again, and see if I can do it again."
Ju Mong's expression was subtle: "Then what about the body you did before, let me have a look."
"It was taken away by Lu Juanchi, probably because he wanted to keep my black history." Luo Chaoxi said helplessly, "Don't talk so much, come and teach me."
Ju Mong raised a question mark.
What is keeping black history? This is obviously a gift. Luo Chaochao didn't know anything and just made clothes for others.
Slandering is one thing, but what to do with it is another matter. After all, Zhu Meng took Luo Chaoxi to make new clothes, and he didn't choose difficult styles. He taught Luo Chaoxi what he said.
Although he mainly focuses on handicrafts such as embroidery and silk tapestry, his clothes-making skills are not bad, and he is serious when he teaches them.
It's just that he was silent when he heard Luo Chaoxi burst out Lu Juanchi's [-]D without hesitation.
He wouldn't believe it if it wasn't tricky.
If there is no trick, can Luo Chaochao make clothes for him?Also come here to study.
Who doesn't know that Luo Chaoxi has been so busy recently that he is diligent when he comes to the store once a day, but now Luo Chaoxi took a few hours out of his busy schedule to make clothes for Lu Juanchi.
"Boss! You're here!" Kong Xiao heard that Luo Chaochao was here, and thought he was inspecting the work. Unexpectedly, he waited and waited for no one to come, so he had to go upstairs to take a look. When he came up, he was very angry up.
Not only did Luo Chaochao have no intention of coming down, but he was so close to Ju Mong that he didn't know what to make gestures on the table, so he hurried to Zhu Mong's studio, and was tied up by the spider silk that Ju Mong had laid and hung at the door: "Dead spider! Put me down!"
"Who told you not to knock on the door?"
"Kong Xiao? Why are you here? Have you finished the order?"
The orders made by the two are all received from Hyundai, and the customers are also recommended from Wang Jia's house. The quantity is not large but the price is very expensive. In addition, the high-end timeline is long, and several people still They are quite free, and they can spare time to run around, and they may not always be in the studio. Occasionally, the two of them will ask Luo Chaoxi for leave to go to the demon world or other places to buy some materials.
Last time, Zhu Meng also said that he would go to the East China Sea to catch the rising sun and make a thread. Luo Chaochao still doesn't know if he succeeded in doing it.
"I'm still doing it—why did you only come to see Ju Mong? I've been waiting for you." Kong Xiao was thrown impatiently by the door, trying to break free from these sticky spider threads.
"Huh? Sorry, I came to ask Ju Meng to teach me how to make clothes." Luo Chaoxi explained.
"Then you look for me, my skills are much better than that guy Ju Meng." The simple Kong Xiao didn't think so much about it, saying such words was more like fighting for favor.
Kong Xiao's not-so-smart mind suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "You do it for Lu Juanchi?!"
Luo Chao Chao was even more strange: "Did you hear that?"
"That's not true." Kong Xiao quickly shook his head, "Dead Spider, put me down!"
Ju Meng waved his hand, and Kong Xiao fell down, "You ask me to teach you, besides coats, I can also teach you how to make inners, even if they are not well made, you won't be able to tell if you wear them inside."
Luo Chaochao quickly shook his head: "This is not very good."
"What's wrong, wouldn't it be best to do a whole set?" Kong Xiao half-pushed and half-pushed, "It's very simple, come, let me teach you."
Ju Mong rolled his eyes.
[Be careful of overturning the car. 】Ju Mong gestured with his eyes.
【No, Lu Juanchi should thank me. 】Kong Xiao set up a template and unfolded to Luo Chao: "Look at which one Lu Juanchi likes!"
In his mind, this wasn't even a ring fight, but a naked bullying of the weak.
Luo Chaochao's shop is indeed one of the best in Kangzhou City, but compared to the whole north, the whole Sheng country, it is nothing, it is a little ant that their Lu family can crush easily, he is willing to be serious Opening a store is to show Luo Chao Chao's respect.
If it wasn't for the official background behind Luo Chaochao, he wouldn't even bother to use this method to directly unite with the local business houses in Kangzhou City to suppress Luo Chaochao.
He does know that Luo Chaochao is a cooperative relationship with some commercial firms, but there are so many chambers of commerce in Kangzhou City, is it possible that all the bosses are used to Luo Chaochao?
There will always be one or two who are jealous, and as long as I give benefits to the bosses of these chambers of commerce, they will be able to make themselves a leader. All these shitty things are thrown on other people, he is still an innocent Lu family member.
It was also because Zhou Jiedushi stood behind Luo Chaochao, otherwise Lu Mingcheng felt that Luo Chaochao was not worthy to be his opponent.
To be one's own opponent is simply flattering him.
As for Lu Liang?
What is that?
Lu Liang is not considered a very important person in the Lu family, not even an important person in the branch family, otherwise he would not just stay in the north, do business in such a remote city, and show off his power in such a remote city, not yet. He knows how to do things, but he was caught by someone and tried to take this opportunity to bring him down.
Lu Mingcheng naturally investigated Lu Liang before he came, and also knew about Liangzi between Lu Liang and Luo Chaochao.
This guy Lu Liang made his tactics too obvious, bullied the local embroidered women too much, and happened to be met by Luo Chaochao. He dragged the people from Youzhou City to Kangzhou City, cutting off Lu Liang's fortune .
It's just such a holiday.
He actually wanted to find someone to set fire to Luo Chaochao's factory.
If you want to burn it, you can burn it, but you didn't know how to clean your hands and feet, but someone found out your flaws, and there were all the witnesses and material evidence, so you were thrown into the prison directly.
Stupid.
As for the rest...
He didn't care at all.
Of course Lu Liang wanted to get him out, but before getting him out, Lu Mingcheng planned to let him reflect on himself in the dungeon, to reflect on how stupid he was.
But now Luo Chaoxi said that he would not say such things after learning about Lu Liang's affairs. Could it be that Lu Liang was arrested because he offended him?
Wasn't Lu Liang arrested because he offended Luo Chaochao?
Even if it was serious, it wouldn't be such a fuss to offend Zhou Jiedushi and Wei Taiwei, right?
People in small places still have too little vision, and think that Zhou Jiedu's support can make him look like a tiger, but in fact it's not that serious at all. Spend a little more money to find connections, and you can get people out.
That's what he said, but Luo Chaoxi still has to give face, so Lu Mingcheng also apologized for Lu Liang: "Lu Liang is stupid, and he doesn't know himself, so he should be punished as a matter of course, and suffering some hardships in prison this time will also allow him to have a long memory. " Lu Mingcheng said, "I don't think there should be any necessary contact with him whether our Lu family wants to open a store in Kangzhou City, right?"
long memory.
Is it just a long memory?
Lu Mingcheng wouldn't think that this is something that can be settled by spending money or finding a relationship.
At this time, Luo Chaochao began to suspect that the rich people he knew were fake. He felt that the Lu family members were all mentally ill, but when the other party really made a very stupid move, he would still doubt himself.
I wonder if my opponent is the kind of man from a wealthy family with two people who have [-] minds.
"Really? Then there is no connection." Seeing that the other party didn't seem to believe it, Luo Chaoxi simply smiled and stopped talking about it.
It doesn't matter, stupid is stupid, the more stupid the opponent is, the happier he will be.
"But I still have to disappoint you. I will not give up, let alone sell the textile factory to you. You should give up."
"Don't you think you can fight against our Lu family?" Lu Mingcheng was a little annoyed when he saw that Luo Chao Chao was still obsessed with his obsession after talking so much.
"Why should I fight against the Lu family? I'm just doing what I'm supposed to do. I'm doing business as before. It doesn't hinder anyone and I don't go out of my way to trouble others. As long as you can do a good job, you can take care of me. I won’t say anything more if I steal away the source of customers from here, since doing business depends on one’s own ability.”
"Don't be ignorant, I've given you many chances." Lu Mingcheng frowned, and then stretched his brows as if he had thought of something again: "If you continue to be so stubborn, you will only end up in poverty. Even if you beg me to give you another chance, I won't give you another chance."
Luo Chaoxi saw that the other party couldn't make sense, so he simply stood up and prepared to leave, "If Boss Lu insists on this, then I don't need to waste time with Boss Lu. If you want to fight in the ring, you can continue to fight, and I will accompany you at any time."
After speaking, he gave a simple salute to Lu Mingcheng, and turned to leave.
Why is Luo Chao Chao afraid?
Whether the opponent wants to fight a price war, or wants to fight a quality war, Luo Chaochao will accompany you.There is an entire modern society market behind him, even for high-end embroidery, he also has Ju Mong and his little spiders.
He doesn't want to block all cloth merchants' sources of income, nor is he willing to homogenize the market, so he only targets the low-end and middle-end markets.
But if Lu Mingcheng wants to confront him now, he will not be afraid.
He has an absolute advantage in both reserves and tricks, not to mention that the other party is already in trouble, and now he looks arrogant, but he has already lost his own protection. It will only take three months at most, and the Lu family will be in trouble after three months. Whether to stay in Kangzhou City and fight with him or go back to the south to protect himself depends on his own choice.
This matter is not simple, but it is also very big.
If a few years ago, when Emperor Qing's foundation was not stable, the Lu family would be fine if such an incident occurred, but it is different now. Now Emperor Qing has secured his throne and has higher pursuits, not just maintaining stability, There is also development and progress.Originally, the Chen family danced on the cordon, stepping on Emperor Qing's bottom line countless times to test frantically. Emperor Qing never found a suitable opportunity to do it, but now, the Lu family gave Emperor Qing a reason.
Even if there is no way to completely bring down the Lu family, it still gave Emperor Qing a chance to sanction the Lu family. He seized this opportunity and ruthlessly tore a piece of flesh from the Lu family to reduce the influence of the Lu family in business. By the way, scrape oil and water from the opponent to fill the treasury.
After the Lu family is weak, they can take the opportunity to support other businessmen, so that the Lu family will not control the economic lifeline of the south.
There are so many businessmen in the south, without the Lu family, there will be other more valuable and more obedient families who will become Emperor Qing's vassals.
Even Luo Chao may become a candidate.
"I hope you won't come crying and begging me to let you go when you lose your reputation." When Luo Chaoxi turned and walked to the door, Lu Mingcheng finally spoke harshly.
Luo Chao Chao opened the door and walked out as if he didn't hear it.
Lu Mingcheng watched Luo Chaoxi go out, and saw the tall man in black asking something in a low voice, and then the two got into the carriage and left.
Lu Liang?
Lu Mingcheng chanted the name, carefully sorted out the ins and outs of this matter, and didn't think there was anything wrong.
Whether it's a feud with Luo Chaoxi at the beginning, or resenting the other party's obstruction and wanting to burn down the other party's factory, it is reasonable and reasonable to accidentally leave a handle and be sent to prison in the end, so what is the key to making Luo Chaoxi so determined? Will you win?
Is it really just that the country people don't know much?
"Go and find out about Lu Liang." Lu Mingcheng thought for a long time before he could figure it out, and then called his shadow guard: "Go and look at Luo Chao Chao, and then find out about Lu Liang, I want everything about this matter The ins and outs, write it down and hand it over to me.”
He wanted to see what was going on with this so-called Lu Liang.
The subordinates led away, and Lu Mingcheng watched Luo Chaoxi take a sip of the untouched tea, and swept the teacup and the tea inside to the ground.
The better tea sets were smashed to the ground, and the light green tea seeped into the dark wooden floor.
When Lu Mingcheng finally calmed down his emotions, adjusted his attitude and went downstairs to continue entertaining other guests, he found that there were a lot fewer guests on the first floor, and those who stayed were already paying their bills and planning to leave.
Seeing that there are basically not too many things on the shelves, it doesn't seem like they have already bought and left, and there are no new customers outside.
What's going on here?
what just happened?
Seeing Lu Mingcheng coming down, the shopkeeper immediately stepped forward and said, "Boss, the customers don't know what's going on, so they will leave without buying anything."
Originally, everyone was in a good mood before Luo Chaoxi came, and it was still flattering, but after Luo Chaoxi came, these people turned out to be as if they had been demoted. They didn't even plan to buy anything, so they were leaving?
They seemed to be scrupulous about something and didn't give a clear reason, but the meaning was very clear, they just didn't want to stay in the store anymore, and they didn't want to buy anything.
"Didn't you ask why?"
"I asked, but it was all an excuse, saying something happened at home..." The shopkeeper also shook his head. It was because they couldn't figure out the reason. It's intriguing.
Couldn't it be because of Lu Liang again?
"Go and check! Go and check for me! If you can't find out, don't want any money." Lu Mingcheng sneered.
After all, it was a trick of local snakes like Luo Chaochao.
It is also because the strong dragon does not suppress the local snake, and the power of the Lu family cannot reach so far.Luo Chao Chao, this inconspicuous little thing, began to do his best.
Since Luo Chaochao's methods are so dirty, don't blame him for being rude.
------------------------------
"The Lu family's brains are really sick." Luo Chaoxi got into the car, and after letting the driver drive, he couldn't help complaining to Lu Juanchi, "Don't they do market research before opening the store? If they do market research I will definitely not come here to open a shop, I must hurry up and pack up my things and run away."
Now the higher-ups haven't had an outbreak because the upper-level people still don't know the situation. When Wei Taiwei finishes his work and takes Lu Liang to Beijing, this matter will not be resolved.
Luo Chaochao didn't need to do anything, just wait until Taiwei Wei left for the capital.
And when the time comes, all the money Lu Mingcheng invested in Kangzhou City will be in vain, no matter what he wants to do, he has no conditions.
Even if there is no such stubble, it is mostly a fool's job to invest such a large amount of money in a small city like Kangzhou City to build a luxurious cloth shop, and it does not depend on whether the market needs it or not.
"They have been paralyzed by money for a long time, and they forgot not to challenge the tolerance limit of the superiors." Lu Juanchi didn't take it seriously, "It's still better to be careful that the surname Lu can't take it easy to trouble you, their brain circuits are relatively clear , in case the item can’t be sold, it will be broken if you think it’s your tricks to trouble you.”
"You're right." Luo Chaoxi felt that what Lu Juanchi said made sense.
With the brains of the Lu family, it is very possible to do such a thing, so they decided to take some precautionary measures for themselves.
Compared to this, Lu Juanchi cared more about the clothes materials that Luo Chaochao bought for him. Although he said he wanted Zhu Meng to make clothes for him, it was not impossible to fight for it.
"Let Ju Meng do it?" Lu Juanchi asked.
Luo Chaoxi nodded: "I don't know how to make clothes, why don't you go to the city and find a tailor with good craftsmanship to make you a suit?"
"Actually, you can try to use spiritual power." Lu Juanchi fought for the benefits for himself, "Spiritual power can do many things, just haven't you been promoted recently? Not just drawing symbols, but you can also try other things, spiritual power can do to many things."
Luo Chaochao looked at the fabric in his hand: "I thought spiritual power was mostly used for fighting, but could it be used for making clothes?"
In the novels he has read, it has never been said that spiritual power can be used to make clothes.
"Of course, I will teach you."
Lu Juanchi actually taught Luo Chaochao how to make clothes.Luo Chaochao only bought a horse of black material, and after scrapping it twice, he finally managed to make an ordinary long coat that looked good.
This is because the pattern of ancient costumes is relatively loose, and they don't pay so much attention to pattern, otherwise Luo Chaochao would not be able to make a suit even if he learned it for a month.
"Forget it, forget it, there's no way to wear it at all." Luo Chaoxi had a big head, and wanted to take back the clothes, but Lu Juanchi quickly snatched them away.
"It doesn't matter, after all, it's the first time I'm not skilled in making it." Naturally, Lu Juanchi couldn't let Luo Chaoxi take the clothes back. After grabbing them, he folded them and put them in his own space. Luo Chaoxi couldn't grab them. Passing him, he watched Lu Juanchi put away the finished clothes and the leftover fabric together.
Forget it.
Just let him take it.
It is estimated that I want to keep the black history and use it to tease myself later.
"I'll find Zhu Meng to practice my skills after a while, and then I'll make you a new set." Luo Chaoxi set a flag for himself, and after he finished speaking, he felt that it was a bit bad for him to say so, and wanted to change his words again. : "Forget it, the clothes I make don't look good, or—"
"It's pretty, I'll remember it, and you can do it again after you practice more." Lu Juanchi grasped the opportunity accurately, and made Luo Chaochao owe another promise.
Luo Chaoxi thought for a while and seemed to be indifferent.It is not certain when he will learn it.
On the contrary, Lu Juanchi looked very satisfied.
The two didn't go back to the shop directly, but went to the big hydraulic spinning wheel.
The water-powered spinning wheel is too big for this day and age to fit in a house.Of course, the most important thing is that it is very troublesome to lay a foundation in the water because it is built by the water, so there are only buildings like sheds for shelter from the wind and rain. Once it rains and the wind blows, it may not work, so now the workers have To build a new large water-powered spinning wheel, we must find a way to hide the two old ones in the house. The water wheel is still outside, so this must not be hidden.
When Luo Chaochao came, the place was still working in an orderly manner.
In addition, many farmers are digging foundations on the land from the river to the textile factory.
This is the land that will be enclosed and expanded into a new textile factory. Such a large project would have taken a long time to complete in the past, but now it is the slack season, and given the money, all the farmers who have nothing to do come to work.
Here, not only are the wages paid more, but also the food is included. Everyone works very hard. In just a few days, the foundation has almost been dug, and the load-bearing beams have already begun.
Everything is very orderly, but just in case, Zhou Jiedu specially sent someone to watch over it, especially near the large hydraulic spinning wheel, we must strictly guard against it, for fear that there will be another person with a wicked heart like Lu Liang Come and set the fire.
Even Luo Chaochao ordered his monsters to patrol regularly. He was also afraid that the people of the Lu family would take advantage of this time to attack the factory, and he was also worried that the simple protective formation would not be able to defend against it.
After Wu Gensheng's incident happened, Luo Chaoxi asked his employees to re-screen the employees in the factory. If you don't check, you don't know. After checking, you found a few more people who originally wanted to do it, but later because of Wu Gensheng was an undercover agent who was frightened by this incident.
They are all old people who have been in the Luochao factory since the beginning, and one of them has even become the team leader.
Some of these people were inserted from the beginning, and some were bought after they came to the factory.This type is hard to guard against. If you don't check it thoroughly, you won't be able to see it at all.
Luo Chaochao felt that it was really boring to be a factory and beware of the betrayal of the employees under him, but the hydraulic spinning wheel and the current main pedal spinning wheel were indeed classified as secrets and could not be revealed until Wei Taiwei left.
Just keep it up for a few more months!
The two walked around outside and returned to the shop again.Everyone could tell that Lu Juanchi, who was usually cold-faced, was very happy after going out with the boss, and even brought them gifts for the first time.
Although the owner spent money to buy it, it was an improvement anyway. Luo Chaoxi checked the business situation of the store and made sure there was nothing wrong, so he went to the studio to find Zhu Mong.
It was rare for Ju Meng to see Luo Chaoxi during this time, and he was a little strange, "Why are you free to come to me today?"
Wasn't he so busy during this time that he hit the back of his head with his feet, how could he remember to come to him when he didn't even have time to practice?
"I want to ask if you have any new cloth here." Standing at the door, Luo Chaochao asked Zhu Mong across a room full of spider threads and silk threads.
"Yes, yes. Do you want to make new clothes for yourself? If you want to make new clothes, you can go to Kong Xiao directly. The cloth that suits you recently has been sent to Kong Xiao."
A few months have passed, the studios of Ju Meng and Kong Xiao have transformed into the way they are most used to.
The shelves near the wall are full of ready-made cloth, and there is a very long table in the center, which is full of thread packs and various tools that he does not know. They ran around in the spacious room, and some even ran past the door, wanting to climb onto Luo Chaoxi.
"Why don't you come in?" Zhu Meng said for a long time, only to find that Luo Chaochao was still standing at the door and didn't come in.
"These spider threads and threads in your room..."
"Oh, the spider silk is a blindfold, you can just walk in." Zhu Meng said, "That guy Kong Xiao always comes up to bother me, so I made a blindfold for him, shut him down as soon as he came in."
Luo Chaoxi was speechless, but he still carefully avoided the silk threads that were pulled everywhere, and passed through the corner with difficulty.
"You haven't said who you're going to make it for." Ju Meng stood by the table, looking for a suitable cloth for Luo Chaoxi that was ready but not yet given to Kong Xiao, "This?"
What he took out was ai-green cloth. Luo Chaochao likes to wear light-colored clothes, so when Zhu Meng weaves and embroiders, he always chooses light-colored cloth, and it is the same now.
"No, I want black."
"Black?" Ju Mong wondered, "Didn't you never wear black?"
"It's not for me." Luo Chaoxi buried his head in the search on the other side, and then chose a black one with crane patterns, "That's it."
As soon as he turned his head, he saw Ju Mong approaching curiously, "For whom? Which man? Do we know each other? What's your relationship?"
Girls seldom wear black clothes. There is a high probability that they are men, but I don't know if they know each other.
"Why are you so gossip? It's Lu Juanchi."
Ju Mong was stunned, "You make clothes for him?"
Before, everyone had privately speculated that there was a slight relationship between the boss and Lu Juanchi, but after thinking about it, it seemed that they were just ordinary friends.Probably because Luo Chaoxi was too busy, and Lu Juanchi was also busy with other store affairs, so he didn't usually see each other very much, and even if they did, it was in a hurry and on business, more like Lu Juanchi was single-minded.
However, he didn't know that Lu Juanchi's body was in the Luochao Sea of Consciousness, and the two chatted every day, not as indifferent as outsiders saw.
But every time the two of them come out, the atmosphere is really subtle.
People chasing after the boss can fill up the whole store, but Luo Chaochao himself doesn't realize it, that is, how many of those who come to the store every day to buy things come here purely with the idea of buying something?
Originally, Zhu Mong and the others thought that Luo Chaochao and Lu Juanchi probably behaved in the same way, but judging by what Luo Chaochao meant...
Don't really have a problem, right?
Making clothes for Luo Chaochao by himself is not counted. After all, he and Kong Xiao are both Luo Chaochao's clerks, and they make a living in Luo Chaochao's hands. Although it is true that they do it voluntarily, there is a job here to cover them.
But now that Luo Chaochao suddenly wants to make clothes for Lu Juanchi, it's not the kind where subordinates do work for bosses...
"Yeah, I made a set for him before, but I feel too bad, I want to learn from you again, and see if I can do it again."
Ju Mong's expression was subtle: "Then what about the body you did before, let me have a look."
"It was taken away by Lu Juanchi, probably because he wanted to keep my black history." Luo Chaoxi said helplessly, "Don't talk so much, come and teach me."
Ju Mong raised a question mark.
What is keeping black history? This is obviously a gift. Luo Chaochao didn't know anything and just made clothes for others.
Slandering is one thing, but what to do with it is another matter. After all, Zhu Meng took Luo Chaoxi to make new clothes, and he didn't choose difficult styles. He taught Luo Chaoxi what he said.
Although he mainly focuses on handicrafts such as embroidery and silk tapestry, his clothes-making skills are not bad, and he is serious when he teaches them.
It's just that he was silent when he heard Luo Chaoxi burst out Lu Juanchi's [-]D without hesitation.
He wouldn't believe it if it wasn't tricky.
If there is no trick, can Luo Chaochao make clothes for him?Also come here to study.
Who doesn't know that Luo Chaoxi has been so busy recently that he is diligent when he comes to the store once a day, but now Luo Chaoxi took a few hours out of his busy schedule to make clothes for Lu Juanchi.
"Boss! You're here!" Kong Xiao heard that Luo Chaochao was here, and thought he was inspecting the work. Unexpectedly, he waited and waited for no one to come, so he had to go upstairs to take a look. When he came up, he was very angry up.
Not only did Luo Chaochao have no intention of coming down, but he was so close to Ju Mong that he didn't know what to make gestures on the table, so he hurried to Zhu Mong's studio, and was tied up by the spider silk that Ju Mong had laid and hung at the door: "Dead spider! Put me down!"
"Who told you not to knock on the door?"
"Kong Xiao? Why are you here? Have you finished the order?"
The orders made by the two are all received from Hyundai, and the customers are also recommended from Wang Jia's house. The quantity is not large but the price is very expensive. In addition, the high-end timeline is long, and several people still They are quite free, and they can spare time to run around, and they may not always be in the studio. Occasionally, the two of them will ask Luo Chaoxi for leave to go to the demon world or other places to buy some materials.
Last time, Zhu Meng also said that he would go to the East China Sea to catch the rising sun and make a thread. Luo Chaochao still doesn't know if he succeeded in doing it.
"I'm still doing it—why did you only come to see Ju Mong? I've been waiting for you." Kong Xiao was thrown impatiently by the door, trying to break free from these sticky spider threads.
"Huh? Sorry, I came to ask Ju Meng to teach me how to make clothes." Luo Chaoxi explained.
"Then you look for me, my skills are much better than that guy Ju Meng." The simple Kong Xiao didn't think so much about it, saying such words was more like fighting for favor.
Kong Xiao's not-so-smart mind suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "You do it for Lu Juanchi?!"
Luo Chao Chao was even more strange: "Did you hear that?"
"That's not true." Kong Xiao quickly shook his head, "Dead Spider, put me down!"
Ju Meng waved his hand, and Kong Xiao fell down, "You ask me to teach you, besides coats, I can also teach you how to make inners, even if they are not well made, you won't be able to tell if you wear them inside."
Luo Chaochao quickly shook his head: "This is not very good."
"What's wrong, wouldn't it be best to do a whole set?" Kong Xiao half-pushed and half-pushed, "It's very simple, come, let me teach you."
Ju Mong rolled his eyes.
[Be careful of overturning the car. 】Ju Mong gestured with his eyes.
【No, Lu Juanchi should thank me. 】Kong Xiao set up a template and unfolded to Luo Chao: "Look at which one Lu Juanchi likes!"
