Chapter 381: Sudden Trouble

Since Lu Zhen visited Hu Sui and was sent away by his old servant Uncle Han, his reputation as the governor of Ulzhou quickly spread in Datong City. Even with the previous credits, it was mentioned again, and its limelight is not small.

But in the days that followed, Lu Jin was quite low-key. Not only did he not take this opportunity to talk to Miao Guangtai about the salt introduction, but he didn't even bother with the prefect. He was only busy dealing with the follow-up matters related to the previous transportation of grain to Datong, and the rest of the time he just stayed in the post station, waiting for the Miao prefect to give him an answer to the previous matter.

This is also where Lu Jin's shrewdness lies, he knows that people should not be too greedy, at least not to give people a feeling of gaining inches. Therefore, before the prefect's yamen asked for the money to repair the city defense of Ulzhou, he would not tell the matter of salt introduction.

Of course, he didn't just wait, after dealing with the matter at hand, he began to fulfill his previous promise - on the way to Datong, he made a wish to everyone, as long as he could get to Datong as soon as possible, he would treat everyone well.

Now that the errand is done, he naturally will not deny it. So after a day of noon, I went to charter a fairly good restaurant in the city, and then invited a group of people and soldiers with greater merit to have a good meal.

In fact, the food provided in the post station alone was enough to make those people who could barely eat quite satisfied, and now Lu Zhen actually took out dozens of taels of silver to feast on everyone, which naturally made everyone even more grateful to him.

Although there were no expensive dishes at this banquet, the wine and meat were enough. Seeing that the table was full of meat and vegetables, and it exuded an attractive fragrance, as soon as they arrived at the restaurant, these people couldn't hold it anymore, and after thanking Lu Zhen loudly, they took their seats one after another, and feasted on the wine in the cup.

It was Lu Jin, who paid the money, but he just drank a few sips of wine and ate some dishes with him. And all this fell in Fei Zhancang's eyes, and he felt that this Lu Zhizhou was an incomprehensible person. Although he also met some generous bosses, they only gave their money to reward their brothers after they had made great achievements. But Lu Zhen will actually treat everyone equally, and this alone has surpassed many generals.

Of course, there are also people who have another opinion, such as those little seconders who serve food and wine, and when they are free, they hide aside and whisper: "This master looks like he has an identity, why did he invite such a class of people who are like hungry reincarnations to eat today?" Is he too much money to spend? ”

"Who knows? Maybe he is trying to invite people's hearts, right? But to be honest, this table of wine and food alone doesn't seem to be able to buy many people's hearts, and I think most people will only treat him as a big wrongdoer. ”

For the remarks of these guys, Lu Zhen naturally couldn't hear it. In fact, even if he heard, he wouldn't take it to heart, because they wouldn't understand his intentions at all. That's why he is willing to give this money, in order to convince these soldiers and the people that he is a man who does what he says.

Lu Zhen knew very well that if he wanted to really gain a foothold in Ulzhou, he naturally could not rely only on the cooperation of the Wang family, but must establish his own prestige among the people. Originally, this prestige could be obtained by cracking down on all kinds of illegal acts of the Wang family. But the current situation makes it impossible for him to do this anymore, so he can only find another way.

This time, he planned to rely on these people to spread the side of his heavy promise, so that in the future, the state government would issue any regulations to the outside world, and its convincing power would be sufficient. This is actually very similar to Shang Ying's practice of winning letters in Xianyang City, except that Lu Jin's capital is less, but he just took out dozens of taels of silver to invite everyone to eat this meal.

But just when Lu Zhen was holding the wine glass, secretly thinking about how to negotiate with Miao Guangtai next, and let him promise to let out a piece of salt, the closed door of the restaurant was suddenly slammed open, and a rough and arrogant voice sounded: "Lao Tzu wants to see, who has such a big courage to dare not let Lao Tzu bring someone here to eat!" ”

When Lu Jinwen heard the reputation, he saw a big black man standing in front of the door angrily, and beside him, there was also the shopkeeper of the restaurant, and the latter's face was quite ugly at this moment, full of worry and helplessness.

This change really made everyone who ate and drank in the building stunned, and the faces of many soldiers suddenly sank. As border soldiers, they have all been on the battlefield and seen blood, so naturally their temper is not too good. If it weren't for the fact that this was Datong, and there was Lu Jin, an adult worthy of their respect, some of them would probably have jumped out to argue with the black man.

Although the other party was not wearing any armor or military attache uniform, at a glance, Lu Zhen could see that this black man should be a member of the army. This made him feel a little more confident in his heart, and he wanted to get up and reason with him, after all, the truth was on his side.

But at this moment, another voice sounded outside: "General Yan, they obviously don't give you face." The little one came here last night to inform him, explaining that he would invite you General Yan Feng Yan to a banquet today, but they were so good that they dared to close the door. ”

"Is that true?" Yan Feng, who had a black face, looked three points darker than the thick ink at the moment, and after viciously sweeping over the people in the hall, his eyes finally fell on the shopkeeper beside him.

The shopkeeper was so frightened by his murderous gaze that he shuddered again, and then shouted and said, "The villain is wronged." The villain doesn't know that there is such a thing, this guest officer, don't talk nonsense and plant the villain. If he knew that General Yan would come to patronize the small shop today, the villain would not dare to let people charter the entire restaurant even if he had ten guts. ”

Hearing this, Lu Jin, who was just about to get up, moved in his heart and sat back down. Things look a little strange, it seems that the person in front of him is sowing discord, if he stands up at this time, maybe he will fall into his arms.

"Hmph, you businessmen have always only valued profits, when will you take promises seriously? Why, do you still refuse to admit it? Could it be that he wanted to anger General Yan? Or are you afraid of someone, so you don't dare to disobey? The one said coldly, his tone full of threats.

If the previous words are still a little unclear, but at this moment, the more shrewd people have already heard the meaning of his words, which is clearly to lead the water to the east and point the finger at Lu Jin.

Lu Zhen naturally saw this, and he also looked thoughtfully at the person beside Yan Feng, and carefully looked at the other party's appearance, but he didn't have any impression of this somewhat thin scholar, let alone making an enmity with him, he hadn't even met in person. I really don't understand why the other party is targeting me so much, could it be that Lu Zhen has offended the enemy before?

As the shopkeeper of a restaurant, this person is naturally shrewd enough, so he immediately understood the meaning of the other party's words. At this time, he couldn't care about anything else, everything should be self-preservation, although these guests didn't seem to be easy to provoke, but they were always worse than General Yan, so he took the opportunity to say: "No...... That's right, the villain was indeed forced by them, so he had to give them the restaurant, and I hope that General Yan ......will forgive him" After saying this, as soon as his legs weakened, he fell to his knees and lowered his head. It's just that I don't know if he made this move because he wanted to seek Yan Feng's understanding, or because he felt ashamed of Lu Jin, so he had no face to see people.

However, his words were right in the other party's arms, and the guy immediately said: "General Yan, sure enough, these guys just want to embarrass you, and they obviously don't take you seriously!" ”

This General Yan is also a cannon barrel temper, and it will explode at one point. At that time, he roared angrily, broke through the door, and shouted at everyone in the hall: "You are so bold that you dare to despise me so much." Today, I will give you a choice, either get out of Lao Tzu quickly, or I will have a trick with Lao Tzu! As he spoke, he slammed his body forward, and his momentum was really amazing.

At this moment, Fei Zhancang couldn't sit still at all. I saw him stand up suddenly, and came to the other party in two steps, although he was a head behind Yan Feng, he didn't let him go at all: "The surname Yan, don't be too self-righteous." Although we have nothing to do with you, if you are so aggressive, we are not afraid to say goodbye to you. ”

"Okay, then don't play tricks, let's just do the kung fu!" Yan Feng immediately took another step forward, as if he was about to make a move.

Speaking of which, this person is too bold, even extremely reckless. Because there are hundreds of people eating and drinking in this class, he is good, he dares to fight so many people alone, and he doesn't want to think about whether he has the strength.

And from this point, Lu Zhen can already conclude that this person must have been used by the person behind. And once you really get involved with it, even if there is a problem, you can't tell it clearly, and then you outsiders will definitely suffer in Datong.

So he hurriedly stepped forward abruptly when the two sides were ready to attack: "This General Yan, can you listen to the next word." We have never seen you, so why would we be your enemy? ”

"Hmph, Lao Tzu will not be deceived by your words, it seems that you are afraid of me Yan Feng! If you regret it now, it's still too late, get out of here! ”

Yes, this person can't make sense at all, which makes Lu Zhen quite a headache. I could only continue to try: "I, Lu Jin, am also a thin and well-known person in Shanxi, how could I do such a thing." While he was talking, Fei Zhancang on the side couldn't hold it back, and he wanted to kill with a fist......
