Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 195 Pregnant with a Dragon Seed

"Xiao Lu, tell me, what's the business?"

Xia Peilin asked with a smile.

"Actually, Yu Qian and Yu Wenji stole a lot of gold, silver and jewelry this time. I hope my uncle can help auction them off."

Lu Hao responded.

"This is simple. This auction is free. Jintao Pavilion does not charge you a commission."

Xia Peilin was straightforward.

"Uncle, that's not necessary. After all, this is a public matter, and the due fees must be collected."

Lu Hao insisted.

"Okay, how many things do you need to get rid of this time?"

Xia Peilin asked.

"The gold and silver jewelry this time is roughly estimated to be only a billion taels of silver. I don't know the exact amount. I will send someone to deliver it tomorrow."

Lu Hao responded.

More than a billion?This number shocked everyone present.

Jintao Pavilion's business is also large, but this is the first time that a one-time auction amount of more than one billion is achieved.

If the commission is calculated at 5.00%, that would be tens of millions in revenue.

This is a generous gift from Lu Hao to the Xia family!

"Xiao Lu, don't worry, this matter will be handled properly."

Xia Peilin was very happy.

"Brother-in-law, don't you give me some beautiful jewelry?"

Xia Bing asked with a pouted mouth.

"Okay, okay, if you like the gold, silver and jewelry that will be delivered tomorrow, you can take it yourself. That's alright."

Lu Hao responded with a smile.

"Really? Keep your word."

Xia Bing said in surprise.

"Of course, we ransacked Yu Qian and Yu Wenji's homes this time and confiscated a lot of fine jewelry. You can take it as long as you like."

"If your aunt and sister-in-law are interested in you, you can stay here by yourself. It's Lu Hao's honor to you."

Lu Hao said generously.

"Really? Do we have one too?"

Xia Wei's mother said in surprise.

"Of course!"

Lu Hao smiled and nodded heavily.

"Thank you, brother-in-law!"

My sister-in-law quickly thanked her.

They are giving away business and jewelry, and the Xia family is now prosperous.

One mouthful of a brother-in-law and another mouth of a brother-in-law made Lu Hao feel happy.

What does this little money count for?Money cannot buy happiness.

A man who is willing to spend money for himself is the man who truly loves you.

Xia Wei knew that this was Lu Hao's love for her, her heart felt sweet and warm, and her eyes were full of tenderness.

A meal was enjoyed by both guests and host.

After dinner, the two of them nestled together and lingered for a while before Lu Hao left.

After Lu Hao left, the Xia family suddenly became happy.

"Weiwei, sister-in-law, I really want to thank you this time. If it wasn't for your sake, how could my brother-in-law let my family go so easily?"

Sister-in-law first thanked Xia Wei.

"Sister-in-law, we are all a family. You are making a fool of yourself by saying this."

Xia Wei was so happy that she pulled her sister-in-law and said.

"Sister, this brother-in-law is really generous. I will choose my own jewelry tomorrow."

Xia Bing was excited at the thought of being able to choose her own jewelry.

"Daughter! This Lu Hao is so kind to you! We can feel relieved!"

Xia Wei's mother also said with a smile. "Yes, Lu Hao also gave us Jintao Pavilion such a big deal, now I will make a lot of money!"

Xia Wei's father also smiled happily.

The whole family said good things about Lu Hao, as if they wanted to sell Xia Wei to Lu Hao, which made her really dumbfounded.

However, she was not expecting that this guy Lu Hao could take care of so many people at home in one dinner.

Lu Hao left Jintao Pavilion and immediately went to the Supervision Department.

Wu Qingyu, who is presiding over the trial of the rebellion case, has not yet gotten off work and is working overtime to interrogate the relevant persons in the rebellion case.

"Master Prime Minister, why are you here?"

Wu Qingyu saw Lu Hao and hurriedly greeted him.

"Master Wu, these people are true friends. Please see if there is any big problem. If not, just let them go."

Lu Hao took out a list.

Wu Qingyu took it, looked at it, and said: "These people are not principal criminals, let alone accomplices. The lower officials have already tried them and can be released."

"In that case, thank you very much, Mr. Wu."

Lu Hao said with a smile.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, please tell your subordinates that these people are..."

Wu Qingyu hesitated to speak.

Lu Hao leaned over and whispered a few words in his ear, his face turned a little red.

Wu Qingyu immediately understood that he was a relative of the prime minister's wife, and immediately ordered his release.

"Prime Minister, Mr. Liu, who is cooperating with Tianyin Pavilion, reported that everything is going smoothly. Would you like to go to Hengyang City to see the Prime Minister?"

Wu Qingyu reported in a low voice.

"Hengyang City will be our base camp in the future, so we must go and see its true appearance. However, it has been a bit busy these two days. I will go there when I have more time."

Lu Hao also wanted to see it in person.

He wanted to build a new army with thermal weapons as the standard, conquer the world, compete in all directions, and finally realize Murong Yuan's dream of dominating the mainland.

To build a strong army and a solid base camp, Hengyang City is undoubtedly the best choice.

In Lu Hao's idea, it would be perfect to have a batch of rifles, coupled with fireball bombs, kerosene bombs, poison smoke bombs, and if possible, some homemade red cannons as siege weapons. .

Xuanyuan Lingyu received his order and has now begun to select soldiers. However, it is estimated that it will take a few days before the army can be truly formed.

"Master Liu has transported all the oil, saltpeter and other materials to Hengyang City. However, the magistrate of Hengyang City seems to be a bit of a back-and-forth."

Wu Qingyu conveyed Master Liu's words.

"This is simple. Tomorrow I will ask the Ministry of Rites to order him to be demoted to the border and make Liu Zhihong concurrently serve as the magistrate of Hengyang City."

Lu Hao was also unambiguous and directly targeted those who were disobedient.

The empire now adopts three-level management of state, county and county. Ganzhou has counties below it and counties below it.

The administrative chief of the state is called the prefect, then the prefect, and the youngest is the county magistrate.

Local finances were handed over layer by layer, and finally returned to the imperial finances. The two lines of revenue and expenditure were still adopted, and the fiscal budget of each locality must be reviewed.

Lu Hao wondered if he could produce cement, which would then open up all the transportation routes from the empire to the important border towns.

In this way, we can quickly assist major battlefields and facilitate the transportation of military supplies.

However, without large-scale automobile transportation, relying solely on horse-drawn carriages and ox-carts, this mode of transportation is still too slow.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, Mr. Wu, urgent information!"

One of Wu Qingyu's confidants sent the latest intelligence.

"Give it to the Prime Minister."

Wu Qingyu said.

Lu Hao took a look at the spy report and was stunned.

"My lord, what's the matter?"

Wu Qingyu stared at him, puzzled.

"See for yourself."

Lu Hao gave the information to Wu Qingyu.

Wu Qingyu took it and took a look, and immediately exclaimed: "The Queen is actually pregnant with a dragon species! This is a great happy event!"

Dragon species?Certainly not!
That is the true nature of the species!

Lu Hao was surprised and happy, but he couldn't express it clearly.
