"Lord ......"

Zhuge Jin wanted to speak and stopped, his eyes flickered, and Lu Zhuo smiled, "If you have something to say, you might as well say it directly, you don't have to be restrained." ”

Zhuge Jin then said, "I just took Beihai now, everything is undecided, and the New Year is approaching, at this time, the lord is building a lot of construction and building a Hou Mansion for the two sons, is it inopportune and inappropriate?" ”

Zhuge Jin did not oppose Lu Zhuo's approach, but was afraid that Lu Zhuo's doing so would cause criticism from the civil and military forces below and the people.

After all, this year, for Xuzhou, can be described as an eventful autumn, Tao Qian died of illness and drove west; Cao Cao avenged his father and killed in Xuzhou, and many innocent people's wives were separated and their families were destroyed; The third thing is that Lu Zhuo sent troops to Beihai, and the soldiers, horses, money, and food also cost a lot.

Seeing that at the end of the year, Lu Zhuo was going to build a large number of buildings and build the Hou Mansion, Zhuge Jin, an honest man, couldn't help but want to persuade Lu Zhuo.

"Ziyu, look..."

As he spoke, Lu Zhuo picked up a report from the table, Zhuge Jin opened it and saw that it was full of recent expenses of the potter and Tao Ying.

Lu Zhuo didn't send anyone to spy on Tao Qian's sons, but was worried that they would be harmed by bad people, so he sent someone to follow the two of them to protect their safety, and second, Lu Zhuo was also worried that they were strapped for money? (I'm afraid they won't have enough money to spend!) ）

Lu Zhuo asked people to write down the usual expenses of the two of them in detail, and they didn't ask anything else.

Drinking water should be the source, the huge Xuzhou was given to Lu Zhuo by Tao Qian, Lu Zhuo would never treat these two sons badly, he sent someone to write down their expenses, but also to be able to grasp the situation of the two in time.

As a result, it was very unexpected, in just a few months, the potter sold the house, and Tao Ying was even more laughable, and he was almost cheated out of his family property.

It is said that on Lu Zhuo's territory, there should not be such a situation, the reason why this is the case, first, Lu Zhuo rarely stays in Tancheng, and never sends people to monitor the pottery merchants and Tao Ying, these two sons are kind-hearted, kind-hearted, and have no heart to defend against others, and the money is either used to help the people who are suffering and fleeing, or they are deceived by others.

For example, some people know that the two are kind-hearted and like to squander money, so they have tried to find them, and specially made some worthless belongings as valuable treasures to sell to potters and Tao Ying, and some even pretended to be pitiful and asked them to borrow money.

The two brothers of the potter were well-known good people, with a compassionate heart, and almost did not refuse to come, and in just a few months, they spent all their good family business.

In this regard, Lu Zhuo read the report, and only smiled indifferently.

The money is gone, there is nothing to pity, these two sons he 'raised', the reason why he built the Hou Mansion for them, first, so that the scheming crumbs can retreat in the face of difficulties, and see the door plaque of the Hou Mansion, the heart can ring the alarm bell, so as not to continue to provoke and coax these two defenseless sons.

Second, even if the two of them spend all their belongings in the future, no one will dare to buy the house if they want to sell it, after all, the mansion of the Hou Mansion will not be bought and lived in at will for no reason, and Lu Zhuo did this so that these two people would not toss their homes anymore.

You can spend as much money as you want, Ye Chen doesn't want to pursue it, and he doesn't want to ask, because they are not losers, but kind-hearted, not to mention, even if they spend more money, Lu Zhuo can afford it.

The key is, don't just sell your house at every turn.

"This..."

After Zhuge Jin read the report, he was surprised and delighted, crying and laughing.

Lu Zhuo said, "In this way, it is said to the outside world that it is the state pastoral mansion built for me, so that the mouth of Yunyun can be blocked, and the people will not complain." ”

Zhuge Jin frowned, "But, when the Hou Mansion is completed, my lord, your state pastoral mansion will start sooner or later, and at that time, how should you explain it?" ”

Lu Zhuo waved his hand, "I don't care, it's the same everywhere, besides, compared to you, I'm far behind." ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and after a short time, the straw bag came over with a tray, and there was a full hundred taels of gold in the tray (although the common thing in the late Han Dynasty was five baht coins, gold and silver had already appeared, but more of them circulated among the upper nobles, such as Cao Cao often rewarded his subordinates with horseshoe gold. ）

"What is this?"

Zhuge Jin was terrified, looking at the gold in front of him, he was at a loss and was confused.

"This is for you, except for your money, the rest is my reward for you." Lu Zhuo explained, as he spoke, he looked at Zhuge Jin carefully, and when he saw the gold and silver treasures, he didn't like it, but Zhuge Jin seemed to be on fire, and he became more and more uneasy, and he couldn't stop retreating in fright.

Lu Zhuo nodded secretly, "It's rare not to be tempted by gold and silver, Zhuge Jin's conduct is really extraordinary." ”

Zhuge Jin excused himself in every possible way, but Lu Zhuo had no choice but to glare, "Ziyu, this is what I rewarded you for, as the so-called, meritorious deeds should be rewarded, and there should be punishments, you don't want this money, otherwise, you just didn't put me, the lord, in your eyes, this is an order, do you still want your younger brothers and sisters to eat chaff and live in thatched huts?" ”

Zhuge Jin frowned sadly, grinning anxiously, he is now just a scribe the size of a sesame mung bean, as a result, he received a hundred taels of gold at once, there is no way, seeing Lu Zhuo gritted his teeth and glared at him with a look of threat, Zhuge Jin had to thank him again and again and reluctantly put away the gold.

Seeing that it was not early, Lu Zhuo asked Zhuge Jin to go back early, after all, this expedition to Beihai, Zhuge Jin has always been by his side, and he has not reunited with his younger brothers and sisters for three or two months.

"Lord, Shi Ah asks to see."

"Oh? Please! ”

It didn't take long for Shi A to sneak in, not that he was suspicious, this guy, probe his brain, all the way, look here, look there, look around from time to time, make people feel very funny, like a second-rate person who shakes his head and doesn't pay attention, he doesn't do it right, giving people a feeling of a street scoundrel.

"Sit!"

Lu Zhuo didn't mind, and when he waved his hand, Shi A didn't thank him, but just nodded at Lu Zhuo.

"Shi'a, you are still used to it in the military aircraft, how is everything going now?"

Shi A took a sip of the teacup, then shook his head and said, "Lord, things are not so smooth, although there are more than 100 spy guards selected, but if you want them to go out and perform the task alone, it is still far away." ”

Lu Zhuo nodded, "I'll take the time to go, intelligence work can't be sloppy, its importance is not lost to the bloody battlefield, as the saying goes, knowing yourself and knowing your opponent is the only way to survive a hundred battles, how to know yourself and knowing your opponent, this will test your ability." ”

Shi A nodded, "I'll take care of this, I'm here this time, and there is one more thing, I brought two people to the lord, one is called Gan Qian, and the other is called Li Ru!" ”
