When Li Chongjiu received the secret letter from Fan Yang's Lu family from Lin Dangfeng, he read it again, and said with a smile: "It seems that the Lu family still has two or three sons, and they actually found out the details of the Lin family's business association. ”
Li Chongjiu thought about it and decided to leave from Mingyue Tower, he had been hiding for so long, those who searched for him were fast, and the officials had already withdrawn, but a wanted notice was posted at the city gate, but as long as he didn't go out of the city, it didn't matter. What's more, since Yang Yichen's defeat, the left imperial guard has existed in name only, as for that Dugu Xiude, he has a title and no real power in his hands, so there is nothing to worry about.
Li Chongjiu was not in a hurry to leave the city, and after reading the letter from the Lu family proposing negotiation conditions, he decided to go to the Lu Mansion again.
Li Chongjiu walked out of Mingyue Tower, hired a carriage by himself, and came to the Lin Family Business Association. The Lin Family Business Association is located in Chengdong Shifang.
After meeting Lin Dangfeng, the other party did not have the slightest worry about his identity being revealed. Lin Dangfeng said with a smile: "Please rest assured, my family has already been settled, and it is not in this county." As for how I also have one or two friends in the Taishou Mansion, the Lu family doesn't dare to hurt my life, the Seagull Youzhou City industry, it's nothing, for today's Lin Family Business Association, it's just a drop in the bucket. It is the trade route from Zhuojun to Yuyi Town, this road is not open and there is another road, in short, there is no endless road. ”
Li Chongjiu nodded, this is the courage of a big businessman, he can afford to take it and put it down, very much like himself at the beginning. Li Chongjiu said: "This is very uplifting, Brother Lin, don't worry, since the Lu family has taken care of you, instead of sending someone to take you, it means that he has no intention of taking advantage of you, even if you want to move your Lin family business association, you have to weigh it first, and my Cangtou army is in Anle County." ”
Lin Dangfeng laughed when he heard this, and said: "To make Jun Gaoyi, I, Lin, did not see the wrong person, nor did I follow the wrong person." So envoy, since the Lu family invited us to meet, do you plan to go there as General Xu Lang? ”
Li Chongjiu said: "Of course. ”
Lin Dangfeng frowned and said, "But envoy, the conditions offered by the Lu family are too harsh, and even I find it really difficult to agree." ”
Li Chongjiu smiled and said: "The price is all over the sky, and we can also pay it back on the ground." ”
Lin Dangfeng nodded and said, "That's very good." ”
That night, Lin Dangfeng introduced Li Chongjiu to the other two partners of the Lin Family Business Association, both of whom were members of Lin Dangfeng's uncle's generation. In the early morning of the next day, Li Chongjiu and Lin Dangfeng took the carriage of the Lin Family Business Association and went to Lu Mansion.
When I came to Lu Mansion again, the Aconitum Gate was still the same, and the momentum of the Shi clan lord for a hundred years stood there. This time, it was still a steward of the Lu family who came to greet him outside the mansion and personally picked up Li Chongjiu and Lin Dangfeng.
The housekeeper of the Lu family said to Li Chongjiu: "Master Xu, this time, the young master is holding a banquet in Cuixuan, please come with us." ”
After that, he drove through most of Lu Mansion and came to a courtyard full of bamboo. Outside the courtyard, Lu Chengqing was already waiting there, walking along the cobblestone path with Li Chongjiu and Lin Dangfeng. In the courtyard, there is a hill with a natural day, and there is a garden pavilion on the hill, and the crisp laughter of the women on it comes to the ears.
Li Chongjiu raised his head when he heard the sound, and several young maids wearing beaded rings and green, red and green, surrounded a woman who was wearing a silk skirt, wearing a blue gown, and a moon-white skirt, was kicking the shuttlecock.
Li Chongjiu looked carefully, and saw that this woman was about twenty-eight years old, young and beautiful, and as she kicked the shuttlecock one by one, the rings jingled and laughed, like music. Li Chongjiu saw Lu Chengqing secretly looking at himself from the corner of his eye, and asked with a smile: "Dare to ask if this girl is from the Lu Mansion?" ”
Lu Chengqing said: "It's my cousin." ”
Li Chongjiu speculated that it should be Lu Ziqian's daughter.
When Li Chongjiu came to the courtyard, Lu Ziqian had already set up a banquet there, and green plum wine was boiling in the wind stove, and there were four kinds of dim sum on the side.
Li Chongjiu said, "Meet Lu Gong." ”
Lu Ziqian saw Li Chongjiu giving a salute, nodded and said, "Brother Xu hasn't seen him for many days. ”
At that moment, the four of them sat down together, Li Chongjiu saw that the mat between himself and Lin Dangfeng was an ordinary reed mat, while Lu Ziqian and Lu Chengqing sat one level higher, but a futon, which was different from the specifications when he saw Wen Yanbo that day.
Li Chongjiu knew that the other party was humble and humble, although he was a messenger, he was a martial artist, and Lin Dangfeng was the most despised businessman of the Shi clan, so he was not worthy of sitting with them.
But Lu Ziqian didn't see any right to Li Chongjiu between his words, Lin Dangfeng snubbed, and after talking a few digressions, he turned to the topic.
Lu Ziqian said: "Xue Gong was defeated, and the 30,000 army was exhausted, and he only returned to Zhuo County with a few dozen horsemen. Dou Jiande first broke Guo Tongshou, then defeated Duan Da, fought in Hebei Lianjie, and once broke Xue Gong, and now there are few people in the world who can control him. ”
"In the blink of an eye, if Dou Jiande is certain between the rivers, he will inevitably go north, Zhuojun will bear the brunt, and then Anle, Shanggu, Liaoxi, and Liaodong will inevitably be included. So the old man thought about it for many days, and what General Xu said that day was indeed the way to solve the problem at the moment. ”
Li Chongjiu said: "Duke Lu is not busy, I have also looked at your conditions, such as the right to pay taxes in Zhuo County, the appointment and removal of officials, and the military power of 40,000 county soldiers and township soldiers, all of which are not in our hands." I don't think I'll agree to this condition. ”
Lu Ziqian said: "Although General Xu is steady, he is still a little younger, if he doesn't return to your family, how do you know if he will agree." In this way, we take a step back from the scholars of Zhuo County, this is the final bottom line, the tax of Zhuo County will be given to you 20%, and we will not swallow the remaining 80%, 40,000 county soldiers and township soldiers, as well as large and small officials, as well as local waterlogging and locust infestations, all come out from here. ”
"As for the appointment and dismissal of officials, okay, we will implement the requisition, the county guard, the official who guards the seal, and the county order of the nine counties, you can appoint and remove them yourself, but the lord, the county officer, the county lieutenant and other auxiliary officials will be pushed by our Zhuo County scholars, you don't have to fight for this, even if you fight, you send people here, and the party chiefs, lieutenant chiefs, and neighbor chiefs will not buy your accounts."
"And if the military power is invaded by Dou Jiande, it can be lent to you temporarily, and you also need to help us repel Dou Jiande, if Huaihuang Town is in danger, we will also do our best depending on the situation. This is the final bottom line of our Lu family, there is no second word. ”
Hearing this, Lin Dangfeng's face changed drastically, and he said, "Duke Lu, it's too harsh. ”
Lu Ziqian raised his eyebrows and said, "Shopkeeper Lin, there is no place for you to speak here." ”
Lin Dangfeng was suddenly angry, but he didn't dare to attack considering the momentum of the Lu family, Li Chongjiu stretched out his hand to stop, and Lin Dangfeng sat down again, and said with a smile: "Gong Lu, what the shopkeeper Lin said is really good." ”
Lu Ziqian's attitude towards Li Chongjiu was much better, and he said: "General Xu, if it is just our Lu family, it is okay to agree to you, but the other clans in Zhuo County all rely on my Lu family, and I really can't help but stand up for them." You know that we are not considering your family, let this condition out, Luo Yi can't ask for it, if you cangtou army does not agree, there are other people, please reply to Taishou and consider it. ”
Li Chongjiu arched his hand and said: "Then I will pass the word to Taishou on behalf of Lu Gong, and I will definitely work hard to promote this matter in the future, but I also ask Lu Gong not to be too hopeful." ”
Lu Ziqian laughed when he heard this, poured a cup of green plum wine and gave it to Li Chongjiu and said: "Brother Xu, if you can go for me, the old man is very grateful, I heard that your family is too young to marry a wife?" ”
Li Chongjiu thought of Fang Cai, and immediately replied: "I already have a concubine." ”
Lu Ziqian smiled and said, "Where can Hu Nu be in the hall of elegance." Li Yuanjun is also a county guard, holding four counties, if he lives in Zhuo County in the future, he can compare with the past Youzhou Thorn History, how can there be no good wife and match.
The daughter of the old man's knees, just playing shuttlecock with the mountain, can you see it? ”
"Yes."
"How's it looking?"
"The country is beautiful and fragrant."
Lu Ziqian said happily: "There is a saying among the people that those who regret it in this life have failed to marry the daughter of the Lu family. This is just a joke, but the four clans of Shandong, Cui, Lu, Wang, Zheng, are pushed by the clothes, and there is not only our Lu family. The eldest husband is alive, and the beauty of the country is also, Li Taishou sits on the country, but there is no beauty beside him, isn't it a pity. ”
Having said this, Lu Ziqian also felt that he had said too much, and looked at Li Chongjiu's expression silently at the moment.
Li Chongjiu said in his heart, okay, sure enough, I was trapped, but Lu Ziqian is not the head of the Lu family, and his daughter is of course not as good as Lu Chengqing's four younger sisters.
Li Chongjiu said: "If this matter can be done, I will definitely urge Taishou to propose to the Lu family." ”
Seeing that Li Chongjiu finally understood what he meant, Lu Ziqian immediately showed a teachable expression, and said: "The old man has always kept his true colors, Li Taishou is young, that is, a prince, and at this point in him, he is worthy of the old man's daughter, if you can contribute to this matter, my Lu family will be grateful." ”
At the moment, the Lu family held a banquet to entertain Li Chongjiu, and Lin Dangfeng took a look.
After Li Chongjiu drank a lot of wine, he rested at Lu's house at the moment, and in the house with Lin Dangfeng at night, he saw a plate of golden gold displayed on the table, a plate from the finger-sized Dongzhu, and a plate of coral more than a foot high.
Li Chongjiu and Lin Dangfeng looked at each other and smiled. Li Chongjiu said with a smile: "The Lu family is really generous, I want to buy this reward." ”
Lin Dangfeng also smiled: "I am really envious of the envoy who has been paid again, and there are beauties." ”
Li Chongjiu smiled, and just as the knock on the door started, Lin Dangfeng went to open the door, only to see four beautiful maids who could be called stunning beauties, standing under the door pretty.
After they saw Li Chongjiu, they said together: "Master and young master, let us come to serve Xu Guanren together tonight." ”
Lin Dangfeng laughed when he saw it and looked at Li Chongjiu. Li Chongjiu shook his head, and said in his heart that this stunning beautiful maid recommended herself to a pillow in the middle of the night, and this Lu Gong wanted to let himself die.
Li Chongjiu sneered when he saw this, and said in his heart The Lu family, the Lu family, really thought that we would be beaten like this.
