Gu Pingyuan was ordered to negotiate with foreigners
Gu Pingyuan shamelessly explained and coaxed Chang Yu'er, and explained his business logic to Chang Yu'er. The relationship between the couple did not decline but rose.At the same time, Li Qin gave Ruilin a sum of money, which was called a charity donation to revitalize the city of Nanjing, but was actually a bribe. He wanted Ruilin to help him turn the Lianghuai Salt Farm into their family's private property.However, Ruilin pretended not to understand and said that he would erect a monument in Liangjiang Governor's Mansion for his charity donation, and continued to waste Li Qin.Ruilin gave Gu Pingyuan an even more difficult task. In order to check and balance Li Wantang, he wanted Gu Pingyuan to fight Li Wantang. Gu Pingyuan was riding a tiger and was unable to dismount.
At the same time, because foreigners wanted to open factories in Nanjing and invade China's economy, Ruilin arranged for Gu Pingyuan and Li Qin to negotiate with the foreigners.When the two came out of the Governor's Mansion, they both understood that Ruilin was just letting them fight each other, and in the end the fishermen would gain.Li Qin asked Gu Pingyuan not to get involved. Gu Pingyuan said that his family was in his hands and he was unwilling.Li Qin and Gu Pingyuan were ordered by Ruilin to negotiate with the foreigners. Gu Pingyuan rebutted the rude demands made by the foreigners, and told them without being humble or condescending that there was no domestic investment space in the industries that the foreigners wanted to get involved in.
The foreigners thought he was bragging, and after some mocking, the negotiation was terminated.Ruilin then summoned Gu and Li and told them that the Nantong seawall had collapsed, causing countless disasters, and that the silver and food needed for disaster relief needed to be provided.Li Qin offered to help solve this problem, but once again asked Ruilin to help solve the problem of hundreds of salt farms and salt stores in the Li family.
