A time-travelling peasant girl becomes a wealthy woman

Chapter 204 Lu Changqing

The eldest brother Qu Yiheng did not dare to refute, and the second brother Qu Yixiang always obeyed his family's arrangements and did not refuse.

Even Qu's father and mother are still worried.

"Really going?"

It’s not close from Yongqing Prefecture to Linhai Town. A normal horse carriage would take more than half a month to get there.

"Is the county lord of Qiling County trustworthy?"

"Reliable."

Qu Chao recalled the scene when he saw Huang Mulin that day, and thought of those wonderful designs, and said: "Don't look at the fact that the county lord of Qiling County is only eleven years old, he is very capable."

"It's inconvenient to go into too much detail. I'll pack my things in the next two days, take the money and the third brother with me, and ask the craftsmen who's willing to stay with me for a few years."

He said to his wife, "If they are willing to go, I will ask them to come to you for the travel expenses, and then ask them to arrange for their families to go to Linhai Town."

"it is good."

"I'd like to trouble my parents to take care of the family."

"Go ahead, I'm still at home."

Qu's father knew that he had made up his mind and stopped trying to stop him.

The Qu family shipyard was passed down from Qu Chao's grandfather. All in all, the Qu family has been rooted in Yongqing Prefecture for seventy or eighty years. They are indeed a giant in the shipbuilding industry in Yongqing Prefecture. The connections accumulated by three generations over decades cannot be wiped out overnight by Zhu Zhuo.

So, there is still time.

The next day, Qu Chao went to find some skilled craftsmen who had worked in the shipyard for more than ten years. He told them that he was going to Linhai Town to take on a big order and would need to stay there for a few years. He asked if anyone was willing to go.

Most people agreed on the spot.

They also knew the situation of the boat shop these days. If the boat shop couldn't hold on, they would have to find new jobs to survive. Not to mention that they had feelings for the Qu family boat shop, the wages paid by the Qu family were among the best in Yongqing Prefecture. If they changed to other places, the money they would get would be much less.

Several people said they needed to discuss it with their families before making a decision.

Qu Chao expressed his understanding. He said, "I will take the third child to Linhai Town tomorrow. You should explain everything to your family members and coordinate the work at the boat workshop. Then go to my wife to get travel expenses. I will wait for you at the Huang's Canteen in Linhai Town."

"it is good."

Everyone agreed, and Qu Chao went home and started packing his things.

Qu Yixuan was personally very happy that he could follow Qu Chao to Linhai Town.

He had never been anywhere else except the capital of Yongqing Prefecture.

What's more, there is a young county lord in Linhai Town who has always made him curious.

He hurriedly packed his luggage, waited for his father Qu Chao to call him, and immediately followed him out the door.

Cai Fen looked at the father and son walking away, suppressed her worries, and went home to arrange the follow-up matters.

Zhu Zhuo, who had been sending people to follow Qu Chao, soon got the news of Qu Chao's actions. He thought for a while and asked people to continue watching to see if there was any further movement from the Qu family.

Within a few days, a group of veteran craftsmen from Qujia Shipyard left home, reportedly to go to Linhai Town to work, and Qu Chao got a big business there.

After hearing this, Zhu Zhuo thought about it over and over but was puzzled. However, he did not want to go to Linhai Town to inquire because that was the territory of Tianjing Prefecture and Qiling County was such a special place, if he was not careful he would get into trouble.

Zhu Zhuo had no choice but to let his subordinates continue to do their work and gradually put the matter behind them.

Within a month, the first group of people who had placed their deposits paid their money to the Huang family mansion. Huang Mulin received them personally and signed a sales agreement with them.

The Song and Ge families arrived at the critical time.

It’s still Song Jinxian and Ge Songhao.

This time, they heard from the head of the family that they planned to stay here for a few years like Tang Jide did, also because of the plan mentioned in the news.

If it weren't for the fact that their families couldn't leave, the heads of the Song and Ge families would have wanted to come and see for themselves.

Song Jinlan/Ge Zhuoyang repeatedly told Song Jinxian/Ge Songhao to assist Huang Mulin in settling matters outside Nanzhenkou.

Song Jinxian/Ge Songhao knew the importance of the matter and promised to do their best.

The arrival of one person surprised Huang Mulin even more.

It was Mr. Lu who sold the shop to her in Bofeng County.

Lu Changqing.

"Boss Lu, long time no see. Are you okay?"

Huang Mulin smiled and greeted Lu Changqing, who was staring with an incredible expression.

"You... this..."

Lu Changqing blinked again and again, still unable to believe it.

Huang Mulin did not interrupt his gaze, and told An Ning to serve him tea and wait for him to calm down.

"It's you..." Suddenly feeling that the tone was not good, Lu Changqing changed his words: "My Lord, I am Lu Changqing."

"sit down."

Lu Changqing sat down as he was told.

"You're here today?..."

Could it be buying a shop?

I lost a shop and years of savings at the beginning, so there is no reason to make the money back so quickly.

Of course, unexpected wealth cannot be ruled out.

Lu Changqing's luck really turned around.

After he sold the shop, he found a familiar businessman and expressed his desire to go with him to Yongqing Prefecture to investigate further and see if there were other ways to make money.

Just two days after arriving in Yongqing Prefecture, I ran into the swindler by chance.

Lu Changqing immediately teamed up with his business friends to arrest him and hand him over to the government.

He carried with him the signed agreement and witnesses, and soon the case was filed. He ordered the scammer to return the money in full and also to go to jail.

Coincidentally, the swindler had swindled a large sum of money from somewhere, enough to pay back Lu Changqing's money, and he probably wouldn't have the chance to spend the rest.

Lu Changqing took the money and returned to the inn and cried bitterly.

Then he entertained his businessman friends and gave some gifts to the government office, and the matter was completely over.

Perhaps it was his good luck that hit rock bottom and rebounded, Lu Changqing met a real jewelry merchant in Yongqing Prefecture.

After making inquiries from many sources, he found out that he knew most of the locals. At first, he only took a very small amount of goods to resell, but later he gradually increased the amount and his income became more and more substantial. Over the years, he earned tens of thousands of taels of silver.

Even his friend who was a businessman followed him.

It was at this time that he heard the news that Linhai Town was going to expand. This time he consulted his family and only came here to take over the shop after the whole family agreed.

For Lu Changqing, no matter how many businesses he visited, none of them were as practical as owning a shop.

"The younger one is here to buy a shop."

“My shop is not cheap.”

Huang Mulin reminded him.

"I know."

Lu Changqing cleared his throat and told him about his experiences and opportunities.

"This time, the whole family decided to come here unanimously. We want to buy a shop and hold it in our hands for more security."

Lu Changqing still remembers what Yang Lijun reminded him of.

Think more about your family.

"Now that you've made up your mind, take a look at the shops and choose one you like."

Huang Mulin signaled An Ran to move the wooden board out and place it in front of Lu Changqing.

Lu Changqing gritted his teeth and took a room next to You Lan's. He spent more than 20,000 silver taels, which was almost all he had.

Huang Mulin looked at his expression and sighed slightly.
