Except for Li Gui, everyone was very surprised.
Steward Li said: "Master Hou, why do you want to go to that place, I heard that it is a bitter cold place." The crowd was also very curious.
"Don't ask so much, Master Hou, I will go to Yanmen in a few days to take up the post of Taishou. Tell the people of the Hou Mansion that you want to go together, and you can prepare now. If you don't want to, I won't be reluctant. Even if you sell yourself as a slave and you don't want to go, Master Hou will give you the deed of sale and return your freedom. Steward Li, you are responsible for this matter, remember that you can't force it, understand?! Liu Yu said.
Steward Li nodded yes.
"Prepare some other worship items, tomorrow I will go to worship my mother." Liu Yu said.
Steward Li was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly said yes.
Liu Yu looked at Huang Zhong and asked, "Uncle, Liu Yu will go to Yanmen County to take office in the near future." Would my uncle like to go with him? ā
Huang Zhong said: "Since I am the deputy commander of the guard of the Hou Mansion, of course I want to go. "Huang Zhong has changed his opinion of Liu Yu. And Liu Yu is very good to his family, and he is still his niece and son-in-law, so he can't say anything if he doesn't help him.
When Liu Yu heard this, his heart blossomed, it seemed that his efforts during this time were not in vain, and Huang Zhong finally got on his thief ship.
Huang Chong hurriedly said that he would also follow.
Liu Yu was also embarrassed. Originally, Liu Yu planned to let Huang stay. Luoyang Lou, the chicken that lays golden eggs, Liu Yu doesn't want to give up. But Huang Chong's attitude was resolute, and Liu Yu had to think about it.
Back in the study, Liu Yu asked Li Gui to come over for a closer look, and said, "Li Gui, do you say that this Luoyang Building should be given up." ā
"Master Hou, the villain thought about it for a while and felt that it was best to keep it. We have enough manpower, we can leave a group of people in Luoyang, and we can also use it as a gathering place for the dark department. Li Gui said.
"I know that, too. It's just that after Ben Hou left Luoyang, Luoyang Tower also lost my protection, and it was difficult to continue to maintain it in Luoyang. Liu Yu said what was in his heart.
Li Gui said with a smile: "Hou Ye is really smart, and he was confused for a while. Although after Hou Ye left Luoyang, Luoyang Tower definitely couldn't be as stable as before, but others wanted to look at their own weight if they wanted to be in the city. And Hou Ye seems to have forgotten that there are two people who can provide protection for Luoyang Tower. ā
was reminded by Li Gui like this, and Liu Yu also remembered.
"Originally, Ben Hou wanted to leave Brother Huang behind, but he insisted on going to Yanmen, and it was a problem that there was no one in Luoyang Mansion to preside over it." Liu Yu said.
"The villain recommended Li Fu as the shopkeeper of Luoyang Building and the leader of the dark department in Luoyang." Li Gui said.
Liu Yu stared at Li Gui and saw that Li Gui was furious in his heart.
"Hou Ye, Li Fu is loyal to Hou Ye, he is familiar with various situations in Luoyang, and all forces also know that Li Fu is Hou Ye's henchman, so whoever is in Luoyang is better than Li Fu. The villain is virtuous and does not avoid relatives, and hopes that the marquis will think twice. Li Gui said.
Liu Yu thought about it, and also felt that letting Li Fu in Luoyang was more reliable than others, and said: "It's okay, it's rare that you have this heart, so go and call Li Fu over." ā
Li Gui hurriedly went and called Li Fu over. After Li Fu came in, he said, "Master Hou, what are you looking for me?" ā
Liu Yu said with a serious face: "Benhou has an important task entrusted to you, I don't know if you are willing." Then he told Li Fu about the situation before and after the incident and the situation in the shadows.
Li Fu was taken aback, it turned out that Hou Ye had such a force under his hands, and the leader of this force was still his own brother.
After Li Fu was shocked, his mind was in a daze, and his brows were tightly locked. Liu Yu and Li Gui didn't say anything, they didn't bother him, and he could only decide what choice he had.
"Master Hou, Li Fu is willing to obey Master Hou's arrangement." After Li Fu considered it, he finally decided to obey the arrangement. Li Fu felt that if he continued to stay in the Hou Mansion, at most, he would wait for his father to take over the position of housekeeper when he was old, and he would reach this point in his life. Now that we have such a good future in front of us, why not grasp it firmly.
Liu Yu looked at Li Fu and nodded, and said: "Very good, you will stay in Luoyang in the future, on the surface you are the shopkeeper of the restaurant, and secretly you are the person in charge of the dark department in Luoyang." The Hou Mansion can be used by you, remember to keep it secret. In the past two days, you have a good ventilation with Li Gui, and you ask him how to do it. ā
Li Fu hurriedly received the order, and the two brothers also went down to communicate.
After that, Liu Yu also felt that there was nothing to do in the Hou Mansion, so he waited for Dian Wei to go to Cao Cao.
After Liu Yu left, the two brothers Li Fu and Li Gui were in a secret place, talking about what happened just now.
"Brother, when did the Shadows begin?" Li Fu asked first.
"It started last year. Big brother, it's not the little brother I'm hiding it from you, Master Hou has told you to keep it secret, and now you are also involved, and your father's side must keep it secret. It's also for his good. Li Gui said.
Li Fu nodded in agreement. In order to protect the family, you will not let them know about this kind of work. Li Fu is also very considerate of why Li Gui didn't tell himself before.
"Brother, then tell me what to do." Li Fu said.
"Okay." Li Gui said with a smile.
The two began to work on the work session.
Liu Yu came to Cao Cao. Cao Cao and Chen Gong were drinking and talking. Seeing such a situation, Liu Yu thought that there was no hope, Chen Gong's military advisor had already left him.
Chen Gong has known Cao Cao since he took up his post in the General's Mansion, and the two hit it off at first sight and became friends. I often come to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao rarely saw Liu Yu coming to him, and said, "Brother Bo Xuanxian, what kind of wind blew you here today." Chen Gong next to him was also curious.
"Liu Yu is here today, and he has a good thing to give to Brother Cao." Liu Yu said with a smile.
Cao Cao had never seen Liu Yu like this, he didn't feel very good, he was a little puzzled, and said, "What's the good thing?" ā
Liu Yu said: "I may have to leave Luoyang for a while, Luoyang Building is not covered by a big name, so I want to transfer half of the shares of Luoyang Building to Brother Cao for 5,000 gold." ā
Cao Cao didn't expect such a thing, although five thousand gold is a lot, but if it is Luoyang Building, it is worth the price, but he doesn't have that much money. couldn't help but say: "Brother Xian is really taking care of so-and-so, but he doesn't have so much money." ā
"It's easy to say, with our friendship, it's no problem to reduce it appropriately, or it's three thousand gold." Liu Yu said with a smile.
"Brother Xian is really noble. Then I'll be disrespectful. It's just why did the virtuous brother leave Luoyang? If there's anything I can help with, as long as I can. Liu Yu suddenly reduced the price of two thousand gold, and Cao Cao was of course happy.
"Brother Meng De will know in the near future." Liu Yu said.
The two parties also agreed on the relevant handover. Liu Yu said goodbye and left, without saying a word to Chen Gong during the whole process.
"Gongtai, how did you say that Bo Xuan would transfer half of the shares of Luoyang Building to me?" After Liu Yu left, Cao Cao asked Chen Gong next to him.
"Bo Hou may never come back." Chen Gong said.
"What do you say?" Cao Cao was very curious.
"Brother Meng De will find out later. It's not too early, and I'm going to take my leave. Chen Gong said.
Chen Gong also left, leaving Cao Cao there alone.
"Going?" Cao Cao's heart was full of questions.
