Chapter Twenty-Four: Stick to Your Heart and Be Fearless of Temptation
"Oh?"
Su Mu and Lu Fan took the cloth bag and opened it, they were a little surprised.
A silver ingot, heavy in the hand, is fifty taels.
With Lu Fan's current income, it will take almost ten years to earn so much silver.
His current net worth, combined, is not worth so much money, and it is far from it.
For him, this is undoubtedly a huge fortune.
In addition, there is also an annual pass for Ryukikaku.
The location is one of the best seats in the front row.
That is to say, within a year, he can enter and leave the Liuxiang Pavilion at will with this ticket and watch the performance in the best position.
Seeing this annual pass, Lu Fan remembered the down-and-out scholar Xu Zhao, and the girl Liu Mei that Xu Zhao never forgot.
If Xu Zhao could have this annual pass, he would definitely be ecstatic, right?
Thinking of this, Lu Fan continued to look down, and there were still a few annual passes at the bottom.
Restaurants like the Shui Shui Tai, as well as theaters, green houses, etc., almost all of the best entertainment venues in the city are included.
The combined value of these annual passes was more than the fifty taels of silver.
It's impossible not to be impressed.
But Lu Fan also knows that eating people has a short mouth and a short hand.
Besides, he is not interested in watching plays, listening to music, or visiting Qinglou.
I didn't have that time.
"No merit is not rewarded!"
As Lu Fan spoke, he put down the cloth bag and pushed it back in front of Xu Wei, "I can't accept these things." ”
"Huh?"
Xu Wei was stunned.
He could never have imagined that a small soldier could resist such temptation.
If it were someone else, your eyes would have lit up a long time ago, right?
I can't wait to put it in my arms immediately, how can I refuse?
This Lu Fan is a little unusual, huh?
At this time, Su Mu was also stunned, he was rejoicing, but he was suddenly poured down by Lu Fan with a basin of cold water, and he only felt cold.
Don't charge?
Brains are broken, right?
Such a large fortune is enough for him to struggle for many years.
What's more, the other party is sincere in giving it.
Why not?
If you don't want to, it will refute the other party's face and make the other party unable to get off the stage.
Isn't the relationship stiff?
What did Lu Fan think?
Coming back to his senses, Su Mu hurriedly looked at Lu Fan and glanced at him, hoping that he would change his mind.
Lu Fan didn't see it.
He has his own insistence.
Some things can be done, but some things must not be done.
"How is it reactive?"
Xu Wei also came back to his senses and said with a smile: "You are helping me inquire about the origin of the young man in blue, you are helping me do things, this is your reward, don't be too little, maybe we will have a chance to cooperate in the future." ”
"Childe is too polite, how can we be too little?"
Su Mu continued: "It's just that we didn't do anything, we really can't ask about the origin of the young man in blue, please forgive me." ”
"It's okay, just ask slowly in the future, I'm not in a hurry."
Xu Wei waved his hand and said, "I heard from my subordinates that you talked to that young man today, which shows that he has a good impression of you, and I think you have a chance." ”
"Then we'll wait until we ask, and then we'll accept your gifts."
Su Mu was tempted, and he also put down the cloth bag in his hand and pushed it to Xu Wei.
"Look, you're polite with me."
Xu Wei naturally understood what Su Mu meant, and said with a smile: "This little bit of heart is to give you today's hard work, and when you really ask about the origin of the young man, I still have a lot of thanks." ”
"Huh?"
Su Mu only felt his heart pounding, and there was another thanks? How lucrative is that?
"No need."
Lu Fan refused again, "This meal is so rich, it already represents your heart, we appreciate it very much, as for the origin of that young man, we will continue to inquire, and the remuneration will be waived." ”
"Okay."
Seeing Lu Fan's resolute attitude, Xu Wei didn't persuade him anymore, and nodded with a smile, "Then we'll talk about it later." ”
At this moment, Xu Wei admired Lu Fan a little more in his heart.
Naturally, he didn't care about that.
But after all, he has money in his family.
Lu Fan is just a poor person, no matter his identity and status, he is too far from him.
It is not easy to stick to your heart!
"Thank you for your hospitality, farewell!"
Lu Fan got up and hugged Xu Wei with a fist.
"Farewell!"
Su Mu also stood up.
"Okay, two of you go slowly, I won't send it."
Xu Wei also stood up and clasped his fists at the two.
"Hmm."
Lu Fan and Su Mu turned around and left.
Coming to the first floor, there are still quite a few guests in the lobby.
When the shopkeeper saw them coming down, he hurriedly greeted them and bowed to each other, "The two military masters have eaten?" Walking. ”
"Okay."
The two left the restaurant and walked in the direction of the barracks.
On the way, they were both silent, each thinking about their own thoughts.
After a long time, Su Mu turned his head and glanced at Lu Fan, and asked puzzledly, "Why don't you accept Gongzi Xu's gift?" ”
"Just have a meal, what kind of gifts?"
According to Lu Fan's meaning, he didn't want to eat much.
But in that case, it would be too faceless for Xu Wei, and maybe he would offend this person because of it.
Besides, Lu Fan also wants to try, how many attributes can he increase by eating a good meal?
The results did not disappoint him.
"Do you really think his gift is so easy to take?"
Lu Fan glared at Su Mu and said, "If you take his money, you will have to do things for him in the future, if you don't do things, he has a way to deal with you." ”
"Then do things for him."
Su Mu didn't care, "What's this?" ”
"If you really do things for him, you won't be you in the future."
Lu Fan said: "No matter what you do, you have to listen to him first, your thoughts, your will, are no longer important, you will become someone else's tool, you know?" ”
"So what?"
Su Mu retorted: "Aren't we tools now? Can you do things according to your own ideas, your own will? ”
"There's still a difference."
Lu Fan shook his head, "Anyway, I won't do it, if you really want to accept those gifts, just accept them, and I won't stop you." ”
"Forget it."
Su Mu sighed, "Since you don't accept it, it's not good for me to accept it." ”
"Then don't dwell on it."
Lu Fan said: "The past is over, look forward." ”
"Hmm."
……
……
The next day at noon.
When Lu Fan came to the room, the person was almost gone.
He cooked the meal and came to Su Mu's table and sat down.
Jiang Yunfei and Xin Yaoyang were also there.
"Lu Fan, did I hear Su Mu say, you were having dinner with Xu Wei last night?"
Jiang Yunfei looked at Lu Fan with envy, "You two are really lucky, you have the opportunity to get acquainted with Xu Gongzi." ”
"Some things look good to you, but they are not necessarily good."
Lu Fan shook his head, "The so-called blessing and misfortune depend on each other, it is very reasonable, there is no need to care too much about this kind of thing." ”
"Nonsense!"
Jiang Yunfei naturally didn't believe it, but Su Mu knew that Lu Fan meant something, and he was still taking the opportunity to mention him.
However, he also has his own ideas, how can he easily change them just by one word from others?
