Chapter 396: I'm Not Because of Money
A middle-aged man wearing a gray robe, with three strands of clear beard, who looked like a fairy-like man, walked out of the room with an indifferent expression.
Everyone couldn't help but be shocked, quickly stood up, followed behind Wu Rui, and walked quickly to meet him.
"I've seen Mr. Li later—"
"Li Banxian" stood on the steps, his gaze calmly sweeping over everyone.
"I know what you're here for, but—"
Speaking of this, the "Li Banxian" waved his hand gently.
"The sky is killing, the clues have appeared, how can manpower interfere arbitrarily? Go back and make plans early, please forgive me for not being able to do anything about this......"
Hearing Li Banxian's words, the people under the steps were not only not surprised, but were overjoyed.
You can't interfere with it, that is, you can interfere!
"Please sir, if you can avoid the bloody disaster in Lujiang County, Rui will not hesitate to die!"
After speaking, Wu Rui straightened her clothes and couldn't afford it.
When Li Banxian on the steps heard this, he couldn't help frowning slightly, slightly avoiding Wu Rui's long gesture, and looked at Wu Rui who refused to get up with an unhappy expression.
"You are the head of a county, an official of the imperial court, and you have the fortune of the Great Qin, how can you bow down to me, a person outside the party? Isn't that a loss of my life—"
Wu Rui got up curtly.
"It's ignorance, and I hope Mr. won't blame ......"
After speaking, he bowed his hand slightly.
"However, for the sake of hundreds of thousands of people in Lujiang County, show us a clear way......
"Please also show me a clear way......
Zhou Zhao, Du Xi and others also pleaded one after another.
However, that Li Banxian looked indifferent, shook his head indifferently, and walked straight down the steps, looking at the frame, he was about to leave.
This is a middle-aged man with a round figure and a big belly, who suddenly took a step across and blocked the way of "Li Banxian".
Panting and smiling, he arched his hand.
"Sir, stay here, as long as Mr. is willing to show us a clear way up and down the Lujiang River, we are willing to raise money for ten ......."
As he spoke, he always observed the look of the "Li Banxian" in front of him, and saw that he was unmoved, so he simply gritted his teeth.
"No, we are willing to raise millions of dollars, begging Mr. to help!"
Sure enough, Mr. Li, who had already raised his feet and was about to leave, paused again, he suddenly knew that there was a drama in this matter, and hurriedly looked around at everyone.
"What do you think ......?"
Raise millions!
This number is really not a small number, Wu Rui's eyes flashed slightly, and he glanced at these wealthy families in Lujiang County imperceptibly, and then glanced at it quietly, the "Li Banxian" who stood with his hands in his hands.
No one else noticed, but he did.
When the head of the Han family said that he was raising millions of dollars and begging him to make a move, his hand shook uncontrollably.
Zhou Zhao and Du Xi and others, although they have a big family and a big business, they can't help but have a toothache when they hear this number, but they hovered in their hearts a little, and they nodded very tacitly and echoed.
"I'm willing to make a fortune and ask for my life for the elders of Lujiang County!"
There are dozens or hundreds of wealthy families in Lujiang County, and there are many businessmen with a lot of money in their pockets, who really want to pay, and with Wu County guarding now, it is probably impossible to only catch a few of them to collect wool, and share them evenly, in fact, there is not much, but it can get a good name for the people, which is definitely a good thing that benefits and does not cost.
What's more, the situation is pressing, and no one dares to bet on the truth or falsehood of what this Li Banxian said.
With the Zhou family, the Du family, and the Han family coming forward, all the old foxes present instantly understood the twists and turns in this, and immediately patted their chests to express their attitudes.
Willing to relieve the people of Lujiang County for destroying their homes, please ask Mr. Li to help.
As everyone knows, at this moment, the master in their hearts has clenched his fists excitedly, and he has been swaggering and deceiving for a lifetime, when has he ever played such a big game!
Those who got on the pole rushed to stuff money into their hands, and one stuff was a million dollars.
In order to avoid revealing flaws, he could only put his hands behind his back, at forty-five degrees, and looked up at the sky, and it took a long time to barely calm down the excitement in his heart, cough lightly, and turn around.
"It's not that I'm greedy for these vast wealth, but that my sincerity in asking for the lives of the people moved me......"
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but sigh.
"That's it! I guess it's my destiny......"
Speaking of this, he gritted his teeth and turned his head to look at the people in front of him.
"It's not a secret, Lujiang County, the cause and effect are too great, if I want to forcibly crack it, I will be punished by God, and I will lose my life for 50 years, I will receive this floating wealth, not for anything else, but to borrow the hand of the imperial court, in Lujiang County to do good deeds and accumulate virtue, in order to make up for God's punishment, in order to seek a glimmer of life......"
After talking for a long time, you still don't want to collect money?
Although everyone is slanderous in their hearts, but at this time, no one will say anything about the run, after all, they are still counting on this master to show their people the way.
"In that case, please give me some advice......
"Li Banxian" shook his head solemnly.
"Is it so easy to forcibly interfere with the heavenly machine with manpower, you should set up an incense table here, burn incense and pray, and I will also go back to the room, bathe and change clothes, in order to have a glimmer of life......"
Millions of dollars are given up, so naturally there will be no moths in such trivial matters.
Soon, the incense case was placed, the tribute was placed, the sandalwood was lit, and Wu Rui, the county guard, led everyone to respectfully go forward to burn incense and salute.
Li Banxian went back to the room, and naturally there were wooden buckets of hot water sent by the people from the guest house for this Li Banxian to bathe and change clothes, and pray for the destiny of heaven.
The door of "Li Banxian" was closed.
No one dared to step forward to interfere, and in the entire courtyard, only the sandalwood rose, which looked more and more solemn. In this way, it was about half an hour before I heard the door ring.
Everyone's eyes suddenly looked at it in unison.
But just one glance, everyone couldn't help but gasp!
Where is this still the master with green hair and fairy wind bones?
This is clearly an old man with hair like snow, crane hair and a childish face, and he walks a little trembling!
50 years of life!
This thought flashed in everyone's hearts in an instant, and even the county guard Wu Rui couldn't help but widen his eyes and looked at the "Li Banxian" in front of him in disbelief.
Is it really 50 years of life?
But all this in front of you can't fool people.
In half an hour, a black hair turned white!
Everyone couldn't help but gasp, and secretly rejoiced in their hearts, they had made up their minds at that time, and they didn't bet on the truth of this so-called bloody disaster, otherwise, I am afraid that a catastrophe will really come, and they will follow in the footsteps of those wealthy families in Changsha County.
"Fortunately, I didn't lose my life!"
"Sir has worked hard, Sir Gaoyi-"
Everyone, at this "Li Banxian", who had white hair and even a little staggering steps, gave a deep salute to him.
This gift is much more sincere than just now.
Li Banxian looked at them, sighed, and waved his hand lightly.
"Forget it, I should have this catastrophe in my life - you have forgotten about the millions of money, I look at the north, there is a magnificent colorful atmosphere, like a long dragon, meandering, it should be that His Royal Highness the emperor is about to arrive, you directly hand over the million floating wealth to the emperor and grandson to deal with, I heard that he came all the way, set up a charity hall, and spread favors to the people, just for me to anticipate this cause and ......effect."
After saying that, he staggered straight past the crowd and was about to leave.
Seeing this, Wu Rui hurriedly stepped forward to stay, but this Li Banxian bluntly said that his fate with Lujiang was over, and his intention was decided. Everyone didn't dare to stay, so they could only ask people to prepare a carriage for this Li Banxian, and prepare a rich enough etiquette to send to the door of the guest house.
With the support of Wu Rui and others, Li Banxian climbed into the carriage, and drove down the coachman that these people in Lujiang County had equipped him, and then looked at everyone and reminded him seriously.
"Millions of money, not only pray for me, but also pray for the blessing of the Lujiang River, whether this matter is successful or not, it depends on how far you can go, so you can do it yourself......"
After saying that, he shook the reins and went straight out of the city.
Someone just sent someone to follow and inquire about the whereabouts of this master, but was stopped by Wu Rui with a serious face.
"Aren't you going to cause trouble for my Lujiang County again?"
In a word, instantly dumb fire.
No one dared to send anyone to find out where the master who could break people's fortunes and interfere with heavenly opportunities had gone.
"Although the gentleman has already left, you must not forget the instructions of the gentleman when he left, why not go back to the house with the official and negotiate a charter as soon as possible——"
"It's nature!"
A group of people followed Wu Rui and returned to the county guard's mansion.
There must be millions of dollars, but who pays and who pays how much, there is really a charter.
But this time there was no nonsense, the Zhou family, the Du family, the Han family, the Sun family, the Cai family, the top five wealthy families in Lujiang County, each took the lead in undertaking and contributed 100,000 yuan, and the rest of the more than 10 families, a total of 500,000 yuan.
As for the money, how it will be distributed to the vassal families below after they go back is another story.
Wu Rui, the county guard, immediately highly praised the benevolence and righteousness of these wealthy families.
The rest is to collect the money.
100,000 is not a small amount. Even the Zhou family, the Du family, the Han family, the Sun family, and the Cai family, which have been entrenched in Lujiang County for hundreds of years, are not easy to withdraw so much cash at once.
It took three days to draw enough money from all over the place and send it to the county guard's office.
Wu Rui has been a county guard in Lujiang County for nearly ten years, and it is the first time he has seen so much money, a million dollars, and he can't even put down the treasury of the county guard's mansion, so he has no choice but to let people vacate a few warehouses for temporary storage.
There are naturally complaints, after all, I didn't witness that incredible scene with my own eyes, and I wouldn't be happy to change anyone who wants to break the bank and eliminate disasters without a head or brain. But under the suppression of these big families in Lujiang County, they soon disappeared without a trace.
On the seventh day of the first lunar month, the frame of the emperor's eldest grandson finally arrived outside Lujiang City.
Wu Rui, the county guard of Lujiang County, took the officials of the county and personally went out of the city for ten miles to greet him, accompanied by the wealthy family in the county who had just raised millions of donations in Lujiang County.
Although it is only a legend for the emperor's eldest grandson, Zhao Ying, everyone recognized his identity at the first glance of him. Without him, the characteristics are too distinct.
The dark clouds under his crotch covered the snow, which was a head higher than the rest of the horses, and he himself was more than two meters high, sitting on horseback, like a giant, and everyone around him surrounded him like stars and moons, making it a little difficult for people not to notice him.
"Wu Rui, the county guard of Lujiang County, meet His Royal Highness the Emperor's eldest grandson——"
Before Zhao Ying's convoy approached, Wu Rui and the others had already hurried up to greet them and bowed down.
Zhao Ying jumped off the horse with a smile, took two quick steps, and held Wu Rui's shoulder with his own hand, with a spring breeze on his face.
"Youlao County guards the distance—"
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to help the people behind Wu Rui.
"You don't have to be polite—"
Originally, because of that Li Banxian's prophecy, everyone was still a little uneasy about His Royal Highness the eldest grandson, but at this time, seeing his gentle and amiable words, they couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
It doesn't look like a young man who is proud of his teenager and can't communicate.
"Your Highness, the ministers have prepared a place for Your Highness and your subordinates, and please invite Your Highness to enter the city to rest."
The emperor's eldest grandson, Wu Rui and others stood outside the city and exchanged a few words of greetings, and then they got on the horse again and followed Zhao Ying, wanting to embrace Zhao Ying into the city.
Zhao Ying looked around and refused with a smile.
"I came here this time, bringing a bit of a lot of people, if they all go into the city, I'm afraid it will be difficult to settle, and it will also disturb the peace of the Qianshou in the city......"
"Your Highness don't worry, there is a martial arts arena in Lujiang County, which is enough to stop tens of thousands of troops for His Highness's army to rest, I have already prepared it, and I invite His Highness to enter the city......"
Zhao Ying was not pretentious, and arched his hand with a smile.
"In that case, thank you very much for your kindness—"
This time I entered Lujiang County, I am afraid that I will have to stay for a while, and now that Wu Rui has made arrangements, it is really unnecessary to let these forbidden troops who follow him be stationed outside the city.
Daqin said that Shulang has been in Chu for so long, I dare not say what the other effects are, but he has really put a lot of effort into publicity, thanks to this, the great achievements of His Royal Highness the Emperor Changsun can be said to be a household name in Lujiang County, and even the country children know that His Royal Highness the Emperor Changsun led the army on his back at the age of sixteen, swept the grassland, broke the four countries in one day, and set the moon with three arrows!
There is also a piece of Huangsun car, Huangsun mill, Huangsun plow, and Huangsun paper that was passed to Lujiang County......
There's even good food!
Of course, the most talked-about thing is the Yanfu of His Royal Highness the Emperor's eldest grandson, within half a year, he accepted more than a dozen wives and concubines in one go, and it is said that there is also the princess of the Yue family, the daughter of the right king of the Huns, I don't know how many people are envious.
Of course, there are also some people who are rumored to have a peculiar appetite for this emperor's eldest grandson, and even married some female yaksha with blond hair and blue eyes, deep eyes and high noses, who look like female ghosts, and sing with these female yakshas!
However, many people do not believe it, thinking that it is most likely that someone is jealous and slanderous.
But unfortunately, this kind of rumor is also spread with noses and eyes, making it difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood, and people sometimes talk about it secretly, throwing each other A few men know how to look at each other.
In short, Zhao Ying is also a legendary figure on the side of Lujiang County, and it is not too much to say that he is a household name.
Therefore, when the eldest grandson of the emperor arrived in Lujiang County, he routinely attracted onlookers.
In a restaurant, a burly man, an old man in a gray robe, was holding a wine glass, looking at the lively scene below with a calm face.
