    The man Ouyang Hao brought back was obviously not willing, because when he was brought into the official residence, his mouth was still gagged with a piece of rag, and his hands and feet were tied tightly.  "This guy is the assistant who picks up the goods at Zhoujiadu Wharf. I saw him coming in and out a few times at Wang's North Cargo Store, and I felt like there was something wrong with this guy. I followed this guy into Zhoujiadu Wharf and found that he was in Bing's North Cargo Store.  It was quite busy going in and out of the warehouse, and he took a lot of boxes from there to a house on the west side of the pier!" Ouyang Hao looked proudly at the strange looks of Lu Hong and several team captains!  opened his mouth to tell.  "You just rushed in and caught him?" Du Wenlan finally couldn't help but asked.  "Old Du, do you think I am such a reckless person?" Ouyang Hao glared and asked with some dissatisfaction, then pointed at this guy, "I took a few brothers and squatted in front of the house until dark.  Only then did I see this guy coming out of the house, well fed and drunk, and he called a carriage and went out. He went into the house and found the batch of goods without any trouble. When he opened the box and checked, he found that they were all foreign medicines without customs stamps!  " Lu Honganan nodded. Ouyang Hao is indeed very reliable in his work. This man really caught the enemy. He immediately ordered a group of Yongying soldiers to load their new sharp rifles with bayonets. They stood on both sides.  , and when the assistant was arrested, before Lu Hong could even threaten him, the assistant named Tian Shengchang had peed his pants and he immediately attacked him.  And the news this guy brought out was absolutely shocking. The opium in the C-shaped warehouse of Zhoujiadu was obviously not his. The goods were all brought in from the Huangpu River by naval supply ships or even warships. He had rented this opium for a long time.  From Zhoujiadu's warehouse, Wang's North Goods Company ships goods, mainly to the west via the Yangtze River, to inland Huguang, Anhui, Sichuan and other places. There are also big sellers there.  The reason why he transported the goods in Warehouse C back to his home is because the Wang family got the news and the court was willing to investigate strictly, so they hid the goods first. Unexpectedly, Ouyang Hao spotted him, and he brought them  Another piece of news, the day after tomorrow, that is, the 18th, the navy ship will be docked, and there will be a batch of goods by then!  This news was shocking enough, but it obviously did not satisfy Lu Hong's interest. He waved his hand and asked the guy to go down and clean it up first, otherwise there would be a strange smell in the living room. Then he immediately drafted a telegram and sent it to Jiangning Mansion overnight.  Wang Renkan, as this was not something he could intervene in, he appointed Ouyang Hao to lead three teams to take turns monitoring Wang's North Goods Store.  And he continued to interrogate Tian Shengchang overnight. He was also concerned about another matter. The energy of this guy at Zhoujiadu Wharf was beyond his expectation. He was able to talk about all the things he wanted to ask.  Early the next morning, Wang Renkan had already sent a telegram from Jiangning Mansion, asking him to hold the telegram to discuss with Shanghai Daotai Huang Zuluo immediately, and he would return immediately. Liu Kunyi, the governor of Liangjiang, had a very clear attitude and would not tolerate it!  When he came to visit Shanghai Daotai Huang Zuluo with Tian Shengchang's confession and Wang Renkan's telegram, when he mentioned Warehouse No. C of Zhoujiadu Wharf, the man immediately looked ugly. Regarding Yuan Jiugao's renting of his own wharf warehouse, he  Of course, it was impossible not to know, but I didn't expect that the matter would be so big, and the case was supervised by the Imperial Envoy.  "Zhudaotai, is there anything wrong with Zhoujiadu Pier this time?" Lu Hong already knew there was something fishy about it, but he deliberately asked.  When Huang Zuluo heard this, he immediately said: "Master Lu Yun, there are indeed some problems with this matter. In fact, there is nothing wrong with the operation of Zhoujiadu Wharf this time. If someone named by name is mentioned in the memorial, I'm afraid this case will have to be investigated in depth.  , that would be a bit troublesome, if not mention these small details in the booklet!" Lu Hong glanced at him and waited for a moment before agreeing calmly. Naturally, he wanted the Zodiac to lead him.  As expected, there was a matter of dispatching people from Shanghai Bingbei Road later. This man agreed quickly, and the matter was settled. Naturally, Lu Hong did not need to continue chatting. However, in addition to supervising the errands, he asked Huang Zuluo to do other things.  Something happened!  "Master Huang, I have something good at hand that I'm thinking of chatting with you about," Lu Hong changed the subject, but stared at the fat old man. Seeing the man's expression of curiosity, he continued: "I have something at hand.  We are planning to buy a piece of property in Shanghai. Although it is not a big deal, if it is completed, it will indeed bring a small profit! " Having said this, Lu Hong took out a manuscript and handed it to Huang Zuluo. The fat old man was immediately very happy!  Curious, he took it and looked at it very carefully. In his opinion, this Lu Yunpan was a shrewd man. Since he proposed this property so solemnly, it must not be a small business. And at a glance, he felt that there was much to be done.  What Lu Hong brought out were naturally several new primary manufacturing industries that have emerged in the super industrial system. Shanghai has always been the concentration center of agricultural products from Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Huguang and other places, and the scale of shipping trade is huge, overseas, and even in Fengtian in the north and South Asia in the south.  The products of various countries are alsoAfter a large amount of input, what Lu Hong brought out this time was an improved silk reeling industry.  Nowadays, the domestic textile industry is booming. In Shanghai, there is the Jiangnan Weaving Bureau founded by Sheng Xuanhuai of the Huaihe clan. Almost all of it was burned down due to a fire last year. It was rebuilt at the beginning of the year. Lu Hong has no intention of actively provoking any competition, so in  In terms of choice, they moved into the silk reeling industry with a tacit understanding. Today, China has lagged behind Japan, which started much later, in the silk industry. Every year, Japan relies on exporting a large amount of raw silk to earn a large amount of foreign exchange, and turns to great powers such as the United Kingdom.  Purchase arms.  On the other hand, China under the rule of the Manchu Qing Dynasty completely ignored this trade situation and had no support for the domestic silk industry, let alone large-scale investment in machine reeling. So far, the domestic silk reeling industry is still a "hand-made silk reeling" prevalent in the small-scale peasant economy.  "Silk-twisting", although Chinese hand-twisted silk is very famous in Europe, but now that machine reeling has become increasingly developed, it has gradually been unable to compete with Japan's machine reeling industry.  In fact, the machinery and equipment in the single-axis reeling industry are cheap to invest in. In Shanghai, where there are a large number of machine tools, there is no processing pressure. Lu Hong even hand-drawn a simple document for the fat old man.  Schematic diagram Of course, he didn't expect Huang Zuluo to understand it!  After Huang Zuluo saw the enigmatic drawing, he immediately asked with interest, "Lu Yunpan, do you need to invest a large amount of money in this industry? Or is there something else difficult to handle?"  Seeing that this guy was interested, Lu Hong continued to explain calmly, "Sir Huang, the amount of capital invested in this industry mainly depends on the production of machines. As for the cost of producing cocoons, it only depends on the production capacity.  As for the interest rate difference from raw cocoons to raw silk, I have also asked the comprador, and it seems to be quite profitable If you are interested, I am recruiting shares, you may wish to make a reservation first, and then pay the share capital after the industry is established.  !¡±
