Later, it was said that there was a generation of county guards who guarded Dongping County. They were particularly fond of silk and bamboo, so they used various means to transform it into the location of the official education workshop of the former dynasty. As a result, this place originally had the shadow of an official family, so it naturally became famous.

The Lord County Sheriff was actually a member of the royal family of the former dynasty, and he also had a certain degree of influence in the court. It could be said that his official career was smooth sailing until his death. He remained entrenched in Jinling Mansion and even reached the hands of the current emperor.

Because he loved poetry, music, music, and even drinking, silk and bamboo, he usually ordered people to stock up on them. A group of official prostitutes with good voices and looks often competed with people in Jufu Tower and recited poems. It was also a good story at that time, which was even more impressive. Somewhat fascinated.

Later, due to the change of dynasties, not to mention the survival of the Jiaofang, even the official offices of Liaocheng Prefecture were destroyed several times.

Later, the forces in the vassal town were too lazy to care about these things. They once rebuilt the Liaocheng Prefecture after it was destroyed. Because the Jufu Tower remained standing, they actually regarded it as the central location and built the new city of Liaocheng Prefecture, which naturally made the people here aware of it. its existence.

Because of the architectural style, although Jufulou Tower did not become a government office, it became a sight in Liaocheng Prefecture.

There was still a time when the feudal lord was greedy for money and actually sold the Jufu Tower to a wealthy family, and it became a tool for the wealthy family to make money. Even as a landmark here, it is an enviable place!

Time passed and dynasties changed. What no one expected was that due to the changes in the separatist forces and vassal towns, the great clans in various parts of the Central Plains could not protect themselves, and this clan withdrew from the stage of Liaocheng Prefecture.

The whereabouts of his family disappeared in the end, and the Jufulou Tower became ownerless, and it was inevitable that it would become the property of the later vassal forces.

Although with the changes of the times, Jufulou has also suffered a lot of turmoil, and even the glorious church of the past has long since ceased to exist, the majestic scale of Jufulou is still shocking and has been preserved.

The Zhongyuan vassal town had changed owners several times since the previous dynasty. When it came to the current Zhou Dynasty, the owner of Jufulou Tower was actually changed to a man named Zheng Renfeng. It is said that this boss Zheng is a well-rounded person, and he takes care of everything from top to bottom. It seems that Jufulou Tower has also become more glorious in Liaocheng Mansion.

In fact, many people have never met the boss, but to be able to preserve the Jufu Restaurant, it has now become the largest restaurant in Liaocheng Prefecture, and it has been miraculously preserved. Boss Zheng must have put in a lot of effort, and it must be A remarkable character.

There is no need to worry about business in Jufu Tower every day, and the door is open so that visitors are not turned away. Because there is no curfew in Liaocheng Prefecture, many people who spend money in Jufulou will stay until the early morning. The business is so good and the boss is doing it, which naturally attracts countless customers.

Jufu Tower is packed with guests every day. What’s amazing is that many people want to go in and spend money, but often they can’t get in. Because although Jufu Tower is huge, only the lobby on the first floor is open to the public. However, the private seats on the second floor need to be reserved in advance, and you often have to queue for several days. There is also the private room on the third floor that is said to be rarely open to the public and needs to be reserved for regular regular customers.

It can be said that Reid was in a prosperous mood today. Under the guidance of his old servant Lei Lianfu and accompanied by his own servant Lei Daicai, he walked from the Governor's Mansion to Jufu Tower with square steps. Invited by Wang Junge of the Wang family, Reid naturally would not refuse, because it was the day when Wang established Zhou Ji's family to thank their relatives and friends.

Although Wang Junge is now only the infantry commander of Liaocheng Prefecture, Wang Jianli is still the commander of the Tianping Army. The power of the Wang family in Dongping County back then was even greater than the popularity of the Lei family today. If it weren't for Wang Jianli to review the situation, the Wang family would not have been so prestigious in Dongping County for decades.

If there was anyone whom Leide admired in Dongping County, it must be his brother Sai Mengchang Lei Fang, and the other one was Wang Jianfeng, the original military commander of the Tianping Army.

Others don't know the abilities of Lei Fang, the head of the Lei family, but Reid knows deeply that it can be said that 90% of the credit and reason why he has reached where he is today comes from his brother's strategies and schemes. Even though he has achieved the high position of governor of Liaocheng Prefecture today, Reid still deeply admires his brother.

As for Wang Jianli, Reid still doesn't simply admire him, because Wang Jianli has always been Reid's idol and role model.

A person who relied solely on his own ability to survive in four successive dynasties and hold high positions as military governors. What does this mean?

This is not only strength, but also a manifestation of a person's absolute ability!

He was born in the army, and rose from a small military officer to a general in Yuhou. Although he relied on his bravery and good riding and shooting, his real ability was his ability to judge the situation. Reid always thought that as the governor of a county and several states, if Wang Jianshe was not good at dealing with others, it would be difficult for Wang Jianshe to survive. Of course, if he were a little bolder, he might be able to separate the vassal towns and stand on their own.

There are too many variables in this era, and what Reid appreciates most is Wang Jianli's flexibility. A vassal town located in the hinterland of the Central Plains, instead of being self-reliant, it has established huge resources and connections for the family. Wang Jianli's scheming is not bad. Although the Wang family seems to be declining today because of Wang Jianli's departure, Reid knows that this is Wang Jianli's shrewdness.

The members of the Wang family don’t seem to be as famous as Wang Jianli! In fact, for the Wang family, the brothers of the Wang family have received more than Wang Jianli did. One is the governor of a state, the other is the infantry commander of a state, and the third is following the most popular commander around the emperor.

If the Wang brothers are promising themselves, they will surely soar to the sky because of their current platform. If they are only second generation ancestors, it is because the emperor unified all the Central Plains and got some residual shadow, at best, he can only live in mediocrity for the rest of his life.

After understanding Wang Jianli's arrangement, Reid naturally admired Wang Jianli even more. Of course, what shocked Red was that these were not the endings that Red had seen through, but what Lei Fang, the head of the Lei family, told him personally. Therefore, Reid not only admires his brother, but also has some fear of the Wang family.

The Governor's Mansion is not far from Jufulou Tower. Although there are crowds of refugees outside and there are constant rumors of robberies by horse bandits, the Liaocheng Mansion is still very peaceful.

That's why Red didn't bring any bodyguards. Firstly, it was because Jufulou Tower was close, and secondly, he had the family's servant Ding Lei with him. He was a good player who could not get close to others. As for the old servant Lei Lianfu, it was naturally because he was responsible for all the external affairs of the Lei family in Liaocheng Mansion.
