Uncle Lai in the Red Chamber

Chapter 411

What Lai Shangrong didn't expect was that he thought he was just having a casual meal with Xue Pan, but unexpectedly Aunt Xue insisted on asking to attend despite her son's objections.

He didn't think about it in depth. After all, he also understood the Xue family's situation. Not only did they sell off their property in the south, but they were also banned from doing business by the Ministry of Household Affairs.

The Rongguo Mansion itself is in a very difficult situation and can no longer count on anything. Under such circumstances, it is understandable that I am grateful for being able to introduce business.

And Xue Pan, the reason why he objected was not because he saw Aunt Xue's thoughts and wanted to prevent problems before they happened, but because Aunt Xue was present, it was inevitable that her hands and feet were tied up, and those dirty jokes about fireworks and romance were not easy to read.

As soon as the food and wine were served, Aunt Xue snatched the jug on the table, took off the gauze draped over her body, held the jug, and walked to Lai Shangrong without shaking her shoulders.

While leaning down and slowly pouring wine into the glass, he asked, "I forgot to ask Shang Rong earlier. I'm afraid we need to raise a lot of money for this business, right?"

Although she has never run a shipbuilding business, she has roughly estimated the value of Long Jiang's shipbuilding. Even with the emperor's care, plus all the various expenses, the total is estimated to be no less than 200 million taels, so she can vaguely raise it. The amount is 30 taels.

Her stooping down immediately gave Lai Shangrong a sense of oppression as the building was about to collapse.

It was covered by light gauze before, but it was not visible yet. Now that the cover is gone and I come closer, under the snow neck, the white snow chest is like a piece of white paper, which makes people want to splash ink.

Lai Shangrong couldn't help but take a deep breath of hot air, leaned back slightly, and leaned firmly on the back of the chair.

But I could escape the first day of junior high school, but I couldn't escape the fifteenth day. The ripe peach stretched out behind Aunt Xue came into view again.

He swallowed hurriedly and concealed it: "It doesn't take much for the time being. It's enough to have a little over one million taels."

If the steps are too big, it is easy to tear the egg.

Although Longjiang Shipyard has seven or eight docks, it currently has a limited number of skilled workers. Lai Shangrong and Liu Xianglian have discussed that even if the old ones bring in the new ones, they can only maintain the operation of two or three after all.

Therefore, for the time being, we only need to buy two or three of the docks.

First, the production capacity is there, and it is not cost-effective to buy more and leave it vacant.

Secondly, it can save the limited manpower on hand and put it into production as soon as possible.

Aunt Xue heard this and thought she understood the crux of the matter.

She is not too ambitious. In addition to Lai Shangrong, there are also people such as King Zhongshun and Tian Guojiu involved in this business.

Even if Lai Shangrong remains determined, he will not let his family surpass these three companies.

Therefore, in her mind, it was a big deal to get 300% of the shares. The original estimated total price was 30 to [-] yuan, and she invested [-] yuan to [-] yuan, which is exactly [-]% of the shares.

Now, it is said that he only needs to raise a million yuan, so it is no wonder that Lai Shangrong feels that his asking price is too high.

"Mother! The wine is full!"

As soon as she was distracted, the wine had overflowed the rim of the glass before she knew it, but Lai Shangrong was not paying attention to the glass.

When they heard Xue Pan's warning, the two of them suddenly woke up.

In panic, Aunt Xue suddenly raised her hand and picked up the wine bottle.

Lai Shangrong was suddenly dizzy because he moved too quickly and stirred up a storm.

Aunt Xue knew she had lost her composure and hurriedly explained: "I was speechless earlier. Although the family has 30 to [-] taels of cash, we have to leave some for turnover, and we cannot use all of it. Shang Rong will also check for us how to do it. "

Lai Shangrong licked his lips twice, bowed slightly and said: "It's easy to talk! It's easy to talk! Auntie, don't be polite. When the final news is available, my nephew will come over to bother you."

After hearing Lai Shangrong's promise to come again, Aunt Xue just thought that her actions were effective. She immediately put her worries back in her stomach and returned to her seat with a smile on her face while holding the wine bottle.From then on, in order to show her sincerity, Aunt Xue would stand up every time she came to Shangrong and drank all the wine in her glass.

Her attentiveness actually made Lai Shangrong drink a lot more.

Aunt Xue misunderstood Lai Shangrong, and Lai Shangrong misunderstood that Aunt Xue did it herself just out of gratitude.

Xue Pan, who was on the side, had no success to begin with, and even more so, he was completely oblivious, only enjoying himself.

After all, when drinking in the past, Lai Shangrong always pushed back. Today, instead of pushing back, he frequently raised his glass.

However, Aunt Xue was not determined to sacrifice her life for righteousness after all, and Lai Shangrong was also confused about Aunt Xue's thoughts.

After all, Xue Pan was still present, otherwise, with his urine, he might not be able to test Aunt Xue's reaction.

But now, all I can do is have a moment of pleasure.

Wine is a medium for sex, satiety and warmth... Under the influence of these two factors, Lai Shangrong saw that three inches below his navel was gradually becoming uncontrollable. In addition, he was full of wine and food, so he hurriedly got up and left.

After leaving the Xue family courtyard, Lai Shangrong not only did not feel calm, but the charm in his heart was like a wild horse that was out of control.

After all, Xue Pan is currently afraid of showing his embarrassment, so he will inevitably have some scruples.

After a moment's hesitation, he turned around and entered the Grand View Garden, heading towards the Jade Emperor Temple.

Since Aunt Xue had aroused the anger, of course it was the mother's debt and the daughter's debt, and she went to Xue Baochai, who was of the same line, to vent her anger.

But at this time, it was obviously not appropriate to go home and ask Xiang Ling to inform Xue Baochai to prepare.

So Lai Shangrong thought of letting Mrs. Wang make arrangements.

Mrs. Wang in the Jade Emperor Temple saw Lai Shangrong coming over smelling of alcohol, and she immediately came over with joy.

He just relaxed his body and wanted to lower himself down, but Lai Shangrong grabbed his arm and pulled him out of the temple. In an instant, he was out of the Jade Emperor Temple.

"This..." Mrs. Wang just thought that he wanted to change the venue, and she suddenly showed shyness. She wanted to refuse and greeted him: "This is so naked. If someone sees it..."

But before he could finish his words, a basin of cold water was poured on him.

"I'm afraid Baochai is not prepared. Come with me to Hengwu Garden and help make arrangements."

Seeing Mrs. Wang's expression of resentment, Lai Shangrong continued: "Don't worry, I am not a person who crosses rivers and burns bridges. I promised you before that I would make a living for the family, and now I have found a way to do it.

I have already informed Jia Lian that we will count the savings in our house right now. After a while, the shipyard will reach an agreement and we will buy a dry stock. "

Now that the situation in Rong Mansion is there, Mrs. Wang has completely lost her backbone. What she is most worried about is that Lai Shangrong will be wiped out.

Hearing that he was still thinking about his promise to himself and letting himself arrange the aftermath, his dissatisfaction immediately disappeared.

Yan Shimeixing said: "Although it is empty outside, it is still easy to observe. If there is a place that can be covered, it is not impossible!"

Lai Shangrong looked at Mrs. Wang up and down for a while, and said with an evil smile: "It's still in the period of national mourning, and Baochai's place is also inconvenient. Let's talk about it later when the uncle comes out of her place."

Xue Baochai and Nai Mu are of the same blood, so why is Mrs. Wang different from her younger sister?
Although the national mourning does not end with pregnancy, Xue Baochai has not left the cabinet after all. If there is an emergency, it will inevitably lead to more troubles.

Since Mrs. Wang took the initiative, she naturally followed the trend and agreed.
