Chapter 12 Illegal Activities

When Lu Ran spent all night to rush back to Ningcheng.

Lu Hongyi and Lu Xueman happened to be having breakfast.

Looking at Lu Xueman's pale face, a trace of worry appeared in Lu Hongyi's eyes: "Xueman, is your injury still not cured?"

"I have to rest for a little longer!" Lu Xueman's face was filled with a quiet smile. She did not tell her father about the destruction of her immortal vein, but only said that she was seriously injured and needed to rest for more time.

Upon hearing this, Lu Hongyi nodded solemnly: "Okay, then you can rest well. The banquet I originally planned to hold for you has been cancelled."

"Thank you, Dad!" Lu Xueman showed a sweet smile on her face. Then, Lu Xueman looked at Lu Hongyi's face a few more times. She could see that something seemed to be happening in the mansion recently. There was always a hint of sorrow between her father's eyebrows.

At this moment, Lu Ran, who had changed into clean clothes, hurriedly ran in and greeted him with a smile: "Dad, are you eating?" As he said that, Lu Ran sat down, took the chopsticks handed over by the maid next to him, and started to move.

When Lu Ran saw Lu Ran's rash appearance, Lu Hongyi frowned: "Where have you been going to the wilderness these few days? You dare not stay at night?"

"No, Dad, I've been in the mansion?" Lu Ran, who had eaten dry food and barbecue for a few days, ate the rice cooked by the chef at home, and felt that the deliciousness was about to fall.

Lu Hongyi slapped the table and said, "I still dare to talk nonsense and say, what have you done?"

"..." Lu Ran swept Lu Xueman with his eyes and sought support.

A faint smile appeared on the corner of Lu Xueman's mouth, looking like she was watching a show.

Lu Ran curled his lips helplessly: "I've gone to gambling!"

"You!" Hearing this, Lu Hongyi seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, "Just not killing someone and setting fire!"

Hearing this sentence, Lu Ran couldn't help but feel ashamed. He wanted to say, "Dad, you guessed it's so accurate. My son really killed many people, but they were all bandits... But in the end, he forced himself to hold back this.

"However, it's not a solution for you to continue like this. Whose daughter would be willing to marry such a slut?" Lu Hongyi said seriously.

Lu Ran couldn't help rolling his eyes and continued to eat.

"Don't take it seriously!" Lu Hongyi continued: "Don't go out to play today. After you finish your breakfast, you will go to a few shops in the north of the city with your father!"

"Yes!" The father spoke, and Lu Ran could only respond obediently.

After Lu Ran finished eating, he went back to change into a more formal brocade robe, and then he lowered his eyebrows and sat on the carriage behind the old Lu.

Wait until the north of the city.

Lu Ran got off the carriage and saw that Lao Lu was already talking to a man with a big belly. The man Lu Ran recognized that Gan Changshou, the largest medicinal material merchant in Ningcheng.

"Hahaha, Mr. Lu, I heard you have encountered some trouble recently?"

As soon as Lu Ran approached, he heard Gan Changshou's somewhat teasing tone, and then couldn't help but look at Lao Lu in surprise.

Lu Hongyi said lightly: "It's just a few small problems."

"Hey, if you can't control the small problem, it will become a big problem!" Gan Changshou smiled, "But if your Lu family has any problems, don't be stingy to tell me, our old friends for so many years, I'm taking some of your Lu family's industries at a price higher than the market price. Is there still no problem?"

Lu Hongyi's face gradually became less beautiful, and he couldn't help but smile and asked, "What? Lao Gan, have you become rich recently?"

"I dare not say that I have made a fortune, but recently several medicinal farmers in the shop sold me a few grasses. A few days ago, a fool bought it for 3,000 taels of silver. The grass seemed to be called Hanjing Tianlan Grass? Just a few broken grasses, you can earn 3,000 taels." Gan Changshou said proudly, and then said proudly, "Do you think this medicinal material industry is also profitable? I would like to thank Mr. Lu for giving us a way out!"

According to the production level of the Sun and Moon Dynasty, one tael of silver is about the purchasing power of one thousand yuan in Lu Ran’s previous life, and three thousand taels of silver is three million! In a small county town, he earned three million yuan in one order, which is indeed worth bragging about.

Lu Hongyi just said lightly: "That's really congratulations to Mr. Gan!"

When Lu Ran heard the name of the "Hanjing Tianlan Grass", his eyes lit up. Isn't this grass just what the two Qi Refiners are looking for?

"Ahead, didn't the two Qi Refiners say that ten thousand taels of gold had not been received in the city? One tael of gold seemed to be worth hundreds of taels of silver?"

After a little calculation, Lu Ran immediately leaned over and said with a smile: "Uncle Gan, who did you sell your cold crystal sky orchid to?"

"You are the fool of Liu Er from Liu Junwai's family in the east of the city!" Gan Changshou smiled, then looked at Lu Ran and said, "You are Mr. Lu's son, right? You are really a handsome talent. I have heard of him. Mr. Lu is proficient in everything except for serious business! Unlike my child, he is not promising. He only knows martial arts, so he can only go to Qingzhou Prefecture and be on duty under the command of the prefect!"

"Oh, I'm so ashamed of being able to teach my children!"

Listening to the old guy deliberately speaking slander and expressing his mockery towards him, Lu Ran had no time to pay attention to the old man, but just asked with a smile: "Uncle Gan, how can you ask where you picked this cold crystal sky orchid grass from? But is there any?"

"Although this thing is not valuable, it is extremely rare. A total of several plants were born on Ziwuling, and they were all picked!" Gan Changshou waved his hand immediately, "But I sold them all... Alas, if I had known that Mr. Lu was interested, I would have kept it for the master. Maybe I could sell it at a better price! Hahaha..."

However, Lu Hongyi had long been unable to hear the sarcastic spirit of Gan Changshou, and had already entered the Lu family's shop under the reception of the shopkeeper.

When Lu Ran saw that Lao Lu had probably not noticed him, he moved his heart and ignored Gan Changshou, who was smiling awkwardly, and immediately ran away.

He was afraid that he would go one step later, and Liu Er's fool would destroy the cold crystal sky orchid grass!

This thing is worth ten thousand taels of gold! It must be made from Liu Er's fool! Lu Ran's eyes were shining.

When Lu Hongyi suddenly saw Lu Ran missing, he could only sigh: "This child...ah!"

...

...

At this time, the county government also welcomed noble guests.

"My uncle is here, I really ordered the officials to be so bright!" Zhang Changming smiled.

Yu Jingjia and his wife Tang Yijun slowly walked into the county government under the escort of a group of guards.

At this moment, Ning Chengbo not only limped while walking, but also had a lot of bruises that were pinched out under the cover of his clothes. When he touched him, he grinned.

All of this was naturally the price of his willful abandoning his wife and leaving first yesterday.

When everyone arrived at Houya, Zhang Changming suddenly deliberately fiddled with the file on the table.

Yu Jingjia has been in the officialdom for many years, and he naturally has this vision. He immediately asked in surprise: "Mr. Zhang, I don't know, what is this?"

"This!" Zhang Changming smiled, "This is an illegal act that Lu Hongyi, a wealthy businessman in Ningcheng, has bullied the good and done in recent years!"
