Chapter 201 The weak Lu family

The shops in the Lu family in Dinghe City can only be sold at a low price as long as they want to transfer them. The shops that were originally worth ten thousand taels of silver would be good enough to sell for one thousand taels. No matter which one takes over, the price will definitely be lower than the other. This will lead to the industrial value of the Lu family being severely reduced.

But even so, the Lu family could only bear to give up their love. Otherwise, it would be even worse. The Lu family's store could not find the source of goods, and even if there was a stock, no one would care about it. Instead of losing money every day, it would be better to sell it as soon as possible.

Moreover, if the Lu family wants to sell the industry, as long as someone bids, no matter how low it is, they will never be able to bargain. Once the price is bargaining, the price will only get lower and lower.

Lu Wuan opened the money cabinet at home, looked at the few pieces of silver inside, and sighed deeply. The Lu family was excluded in Dinghe City and was already struggling. Could it be that he could only move out of Dinghe City? No! The Lu family must not surrender!

But what else can I do if I don’t surrender? Should I really be the so-called first-level guard of the Wu family? I am a warrior of the eight internal power families, and I am also the head of the Lu family. If I go to the Wu family as a guard, I am afraid that no one needs to ridicule him, he will die of shame.

But what else can I do? He reached out to his father-in-law? He was embarrassed. But his wife Xu Luyan returned to her parents' home a few days ago, making him not want to think about this. Also, Lu Yuxin, born Lizi, really wants to treat her as the job of the Lu family? And the Lu family's last industry, I don't know how many people are coveting it.

"Dad." A timid voice sounded behind him. It was the only descendant of the Lu family. Lu Yuxin, who is fourteen years old this year. Her skin is better than snow, her willow eyebrows are like the moon, her lips are red and her teeth are white, her red face is like a crabapple flower, and her almond eyes are as clear as water, so beautiful that it is incomparable.

"Xin'er." Lu Wu'an was frowning when he saw his daughter, and immediately turned into a spring breeze. Lu Yuxin was very sensible, which was what comforted Lu Wu the most.

"Dad, isn't there much money in the family?" Lu Yuxin asked sensiblely. Children from other aristocratic families lived a carefree life when they were as old as hers.

But since she became sensible, she had no playmates or maids around her, just like an ordinary family's children. The only difference is that the Lu family has many yards, and even if she can't finish shopping in a day, she doesn't make her feel happy. Instead, she is like a bird locked in an iron cage.

"Why don't the family have much money? You can practice with peace of mind. Don't be distracted by these things." Lu Wu said annoyedly.

"Dad, I have been promoted to the third level of internal strength, and maybe I can advance to the fourth level soon. The future of the Lu family will definitely be better." Lu Yuxin said with a clever smile.

"Xin'er is the most sensible, go and play by yourself." Lu Wuan said with a loving look on his face.

"Dad, when will mom be back? I don't like the meals made by Grandpa Lu Yi." Lu Yuxin suddenly asked.

The Lu family's servants were long ago unable to afford them, and now there was only one old servant left. Lu Yi has been in the Lu family since he was a child. He was originally a beggar on the street. He begged in front of the Lu family and was about to starve to death. He was rescued by the Lu family as the head of the Lu family and served as a servant. From then on, Lu Yi has been in the Lu family and is now a warrior in the late stage of the fourth level of internal strength.

Lu Yi has always done rough work, so how could he cook? If Xu Luyan hadn't returned to her parents' home, Lu Yi would have never entered the kitchen.

"I'll be back in a few days." Lu Wuan smiled and said softly.

Lu Wu'an's wife Xu Luyan returned to her parents' home. For nothing else, it was just to borrow food and money. The dignified Lu family actually had to rely on other people's support to have enough food. You can imagine how sad Lu Wu'an felt. Moreover, such a thing is not once or twice. In the past three years, if it weren't for the support of the Xu family, the people of the Lu family would have starved to death long ago.

Lu Wuan took a piece of silver, locked the cashier, and turned around and walked out. The Lu family now only had an old servant, Lu Yi, and all the guards and servants were dismissed by him. It’s not that the Lu family didn’t need them, but that they could no longer afford them. Not to mention the monthly monthly money, even if there were three meals a day, the Lu family would almost no longer be able to provide them.

"Lu Yi, go buy some rice and some vegetables." Lu Wuan naturally couldn't buy these things in person. Even if he starved to death, he would never do this.

"Master, the price of salt and tofu given to us by Hengchang Grocery Store doubled yesterday. The rice in Baifu Rice Store also rose to 45 cents per pound." Lu Yi looked at the silver cubes half-fingered in Lu Wu'an's hand and sighed. I don't know how much rice I can buy for this amount of silver. If the Lu family doesn't want to eat meat, they can't afford it even if they eat tofu.

"Buy as much as you can. The lady is coming back soon. As soon as she comes back, the situation at home will improve." Lu Wuan sighed.

"Master, why don't we grow some vegetables in the mansion and raise a few pigs and dozens of chickens to see who can trap us?" Lu Yi said. He knew that the Lu family was in trouble, but no matter what kind of difficulties he was, he would not leave. When the old man saved his life, his life was the Lu family.

"Don't talk about this matter!" Lu Wuan flatly refused. If the Lu family grows vegetables, germanium and chickens in the mansion, what's the difference between it and ordinary families? Even if he starves to death, he will not allow this. Instead of growing vegetables and raising pigs, it's better for the whole family to move out of Dinghe City to avoid being ridiculed.

"Old Master Lu, do you want to weigh some meat?" As soon as Lu Yi walked out of the Lu family, he met Butcher Zhang carrying the meat load. When he saw Lu Yi coming out, he shouted loudly.

"I can't afford it." Lu Yi said with disgust. This butcher Zhang used to supply meat to the Lu family. The Lu family used to consume more than 100 kilograms of pork a day, and the price given by the butcher Zhang was fair. The top-quality meat was only 18 cents per kilogram, while the bottom-quality meat only needed 12 cents per kilogram. But in recent years, as long as the Lu family bought meat from him, the price has risen sharply, and recently it has risen to 150 cents per kilogram. Is this still the price of meat?

"It only costs thirty cents today." Butcher Zhang put down his burden and said with a smile.

"Really?" Lu Yi pinched the broken silver in his hand and said in surprise.

"Of course, if the Lu family buys meat today, it will be only thirty cents...one or two." Butcher Zhang dragged his voice and finally said the word "one or two".

"Don't let your mother's shit go!" Lu Yi cursed, "How could he bully people like this? When Butcher Zhang saw him, he looked like he was flattering, but now he dared to step on the Lu family's head and piss. Thirty-month-month-tonne pork, 300-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month-month

"Old Lu family, don't be ungrateful. My meat is definitely top-notch. Master Lu and the little beauty of the Lu family have not eaten meat for a long time. How can you do it? Go to Dinghe City to inquire where you can buy meat cheaper than me." Zhang said with confidence that the Lu family is already in slightest. I'm afraid that the Lu family will no longer exist in Dinghe City. Naturally, he will not be as humble as before.

Lu Yi left in anger, but then he went to Hengchang grocery store and Baifu Rice store and found that today's price had doubled compared to yesterday. The things he originally planned to buy can only be reduced by half now. Lu Yi did not go to other places to ask, if he changed one, the price would probably be more expensive. If he changed another one, the price would rise again. It seems that all the merchants in Dinghe City jointly came to sanction the Lu family.

At the current price, the ten taels of silver from the Lu family are not as valuable as the one tael of silver from other families. Lu Yi was very sad. There was no real high-level warrior in the Lu family, and if he offended the Qian family, he would naturally be bullied by others.

Lu Wuan went to Lu Wuping's yard because there were only a few people in the Lu family, and the yard seemed extremely quiet. Lu Wuan walked in and saw Lu Wuping in the yard behind. Although Lu Wuping was about ten years younger than Lu Wuan, Lu Wuping had a vast face at this time, sitting on a stone bench with a dull eyes.

"Second brother." Lu Wuan sat next to him and called softly.

"Brother." Lu Wuping slowly turned around, glanced at Lu Wuan, and then turned his gaze to the distance.

"Second brother, why are you doing this? The Lu family needs you to cheer up, otherwise the Lu family will be finished." Lu Wuan only revealed his heart in front of Lu Wuping. As a man, he carries the entire Lu family. Although the Lu family is getting smaller and smaller under his management, it is not as good as an ordinary family now.

"Phoenix, Cheng'er, I'm sorry to you." Lu Wuping murmured.

"Second brother, you are a martial arts genius of a generation. How can you be kept in love with your children? My father used to oppose you to marry the seven daughters of the Qian family, but he didn't want to affect your cultivation. If you could concentrate on practicing, now you are at least a warrior of the ninth level of internal energy. If you propose marriage to the Qian family at this time, I think the Qian family might not refuse." Lu Wuan said. At that time, Lu Wuping seemed to be possessed, and was only thinking about staying with Qian Fenghuang and flying together, otherwise how could he elope?

"Phoenix, Cheng'er, I'm sorry to you." Lu Wuping murmured.

"Qian Fenghuang is crazy now. The Cheng'er you mentioned is no longer in the world!" Lu Wuan said angrily. It is unreasonable that a dignified seven-foot man actually ruined himself for a woman. You must know that Lu Wuan did not destroy him alone, but the entire Lu family.

"Phoenix, Cheng'er, I'm sorry to you."

When Lu Wuan heard this again, he left helplessly. After so many years, Lu Wuping could only say this except calling him "Brother". If the Lu family's strength was not strong, Lu Wuping would never be with Qian Fenghuang again.
