Returning to Lujiazhuang, as soon as he arrived at the entrance of Lujiazhuang, he saw Liu Jing and his people coming directly to greet him.
"Master, you are back!" Liu Jing looked at Lu Chen with a worried look on his face, as if he was about to cry.
"Gouzi, why are you looking like this! What else could happen to me!" Lu Chen turned over and dismounted, Liu Jing took the reins of the white fox's horse, Lu Chen reached out and pinched Liu Jing's cheek, and said with a smile.
Liu Jing laughed innocently when Lu Chen pinched his cheek.
"Gouwa, go call Lian Ming, Qu Zhao and Du Chengze!" After returning to the mansion, Lu Chen, who was sitting in the front hall drinking warm tea, ordered Liu Jing.
"Yes!" Liu Jing responded and ran out quickly.
In about a quarter of an hour, Liu Jing brought Lian Ming, Qu Zhao and Du Chengze to the front hall.
"Master!" The three of them saluted directly when they saw Lu Chen sitting on the chair.
"Here we come!" Lu Chen nodded at the three people who saluted him, "I have something for you to do!" Lu Chen said, pointing to a gray baggage placed on the coffee table beside him.
"What is this?" The three of them couldn't help but be stunned when they looked at the angular gray baggage. Du Chengze looked at the gray baggage and couldn't help but asked curiously.
"You'll know if you open it and take a look!" Lu Chen picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said with a smile.
Since Lu Chen asked him to open the baggage, Du Chengze went directly to open the baggage, and then discovered that there were neat books in the baggage.
"This..." Du Chengze looked at the names on the books and couldn't help but look surprised. These books are outside, but many students hope to read them, because these books are all about scientific examinations, although Du Chengze did not He had participated in the imperial examination, but his father was an official in the former Sui Dynasty. The imperial examination system in the early Tang Dynasty was inherited from the former Sui Dynasty. Have you never eaten pork and never seen a pig run away?
So Du Chengze recognized at a glance what the books on the coffee table were for.
"My lord, you didn't really rob Zheng Shangshu's house, did you?" Du Chengze looked at Lu Chen with doubtful eyes. After all, what Lu Chen did last night was spread throughout Chang'an today.
The story of Lu Chen destroying the gate of Zheng Shanguo's family was relatively pragmatic when it was first reported. That is to say, there was a conflict between Lu Chen and Zheng Shanguo. The door of Zheng's house was directly demolished.
But later on, as time went by, the news became more and more bizarre. Some said that Lu Chen and Zheng Shanguo were jealous of each other in Pingkangfang, and that the two fought over a piece of music. Others said that Lu Chen and Zheng Shanguo There had always been old grudges between them. This time, for unknown reasons, the conflict broke out between the two. In a rage, County Duke Lu directly ransacked the Zheng family's property. Anyway, the more evil they traveled through, the more magical they became.
There are naturally people in Lujiazhuang going back and forth between Chang'an City and Lujiazhuang. After all, it is impossible for Lujiazhuang to open the roof - without communicating with the outside world, you still have to buy some things, and these people naturally bring these rumors back to Lujiazhuang.
"How could I do that kind of thing!" Hearing Du Chengze's words, Lu Chen couldn't help laughing. "Am I the one who does that kind of thing?" Lu Chen couldn't help but complain.
"Yes!" This was the answer in the minds of people like Du Chengze. Of course, they would not dare to say it in front of Lu Chen, unless they wanted to be dealt with by Lu Chen or they no longer wanted to live in Lujiazhuang.
"What about these books...?" Du Chengze asked curiously. After all, some of these books can be purchased in bookstores, but the prices are prohibitive.
"These books were borrowed by me from King Rencheng's library! Don't destroy them!" Lu Chen then told Du Chengze the source of the books, "In addition, I asked the three of you to come here. I am going to ask you to print out all these books, and within two days, you can print out fifty copies of each book, can you do it?" Lu Chen looked at the three of them and asked.
"This..." After hearing Lu Chen's question, the three of them looked at each other, "There is no problem with the paper. Judging from the amount of paper we currently store, there will be no problem if we double the printing volume. It's a problem!" Qu Zhao, who was in charge of the papermaking workshop, said to Lu Chen, cupping his hands.
"If you work overtime, there will be no problem with printing!" Du Chengze and Lian Ming looked at each other, and after thinking about it, Lian Ming said to Lu Chen, cupping his hands.
"Okay! Within two days, I will see these books. Each of them has fifty copies! You can start to do it now! If there are more than fifty books, I will reward you two hundred for every ten more books. Wen!" Lu Chen waved his hand directly at the three of them and said.
"Yes!" The three of them bowed to accept the order, and then exited the front hall, leaving only Lu Chen alone.
"Where's Su Chang?" It wasn't until this moment that Lu Chen realized that he hadn't seen Su Chang, so he asked Liu Jing directly.
"Sister Su went to Chang'an City this morning!" Liu Jing and Lu Chenhui reported.
As soon as he heard Liu Jing's report, Lu Chen knew what Su Chang was doing. A few days ago, Lu Chen also mentioned to Su Chang that Su Chang should go to the palace to find Li Yanjun. I'm afraid he was in such a hurry to enter the city today. Because after hearing the news last night, hurry up and find Li Yanjun!
As for Su Chang's visit to Li Yanjun, Lu Chen could only wait for the result. After all, if he asked to meet Li Yuan or something, he could still do it, but the harem was not a place he could go!
After learning about Su Chang's whereabouts, Lu Chen could only say "Oh" lightly and stopped making any inquiries.
Two days are neither long nor short. Today is the day when Lu Chen has arranged a banquet with those aristocratic families. As for the issue of booking the Changyuan Building, this kind of thing is naturally not worth mentioning. Lu Chen wants to stay in Changyuan. The fact that Yuan Lou hosted a banquet for these officials from aristocratic families had already spread throughout Chang'an.
Naturally, Lu Chen would not publicize this matter. Those who could do this were naturally those aristocratic families, but Lu Chen didn't care so much about this matter.
People who are interested in inquiring about this kind of thing can naturally find out. Even if those aristocratic families don't release the news, there will always be some information leaked out with people coming and going in Changyuan Building. Don't forget, these restaurants and Hepingkangfang, but the information The place with the most sources.
Moreover, in the past few days, not only was the news spreading in Chang'an City that Lu Chen was going to entertain the officials of the famous family today, there was also news that someone was selling top-grade colored glaze. It can be said that the sale of top-grade colored glaze has attracted a lot of attention. It even surpassed Lu Chen's banquet with family officials.
When Lu Chen heard it, he knew that this news was definitely done by Qian Junnan and Luo Life. After hearing the news, he just laughed it off. After all, although the two people jointly spread the news, the person behind the scenes was Lu Chen.
After Lu Chen was fully dressed, he got on the white fox and headed straight to Chang'an City with Lian Xiude, Meng Ji, and a carriage containing several boxes.
Chang'an City is quite lively during the day, especially the East Market. After all, this and the West Market are the largest trading areas in Chang'an. People are coming and going, and it is bustling. But as Lu Chen led people into the East Market, he became After meeting the most handsome boy on the street, everyone would pay attention to Lu Chen and at the same time keep guessing what was in the boxes placed on the carriage following Lu Chen. !
Lu Chen naturally booked the best private room in Changyuan Building. Lu Chen asked Bei Weiwei to move all the boxes on the carriage to the corner of the private room. Lu Chen sat on the main seat, drinking tea and talking. Lean on the railing and look into the distance.
Lu Chen looked at the scenery outside the window. It could be said that this location had a direct view of the entire East Market. Lu Chen could see the various shops and performers nearby, as well as the Hu merchants selling goods in the distance. It is with relish.
"Master, they are here!" While Lu Chen was drinking tea and leaning on the railing to look into the distance, Lian Xiude opened the door of the private room and rushed to Lu Chen to report.
After receiving Lian Xiude's report, Lu Chen stood up directly and came to the door of the private room. He saw Xiao Yu, Zheng Shanguo, Wang Gui and Wei Ting walking up the stairs.
"Masters, I haven't seen you for a few days, you look good!" Brother Lu said with a smile and cupped his hands at the people.
"Mr. Lu has been fine these days!" As the saying goes, don't hit anyone with a smiling face. Even if these people were upset when they saw Lu Chen, they still rushed to Lu Chen when they saw Lu Chen's smiling face. He cupped his hands, tried his best to smile, and dealt with Lu Chen.
"Guys, please come inside!" Lu Chen stepped out of the way and motioned for a few people to go into the private room to talk. A few people were not polite, they cupped their hands at Lu Chen and filed in directly.
The main seat was naturally reserved for Lu Chen, the host, but the positions for Lu Chen's left and right hands were naturally vacant, and the scene became like this: Lu Chen sat on this half of the table, while Xiao Yu and others Sitting on the half table opposite Lu Chen.
"Lian Xiude, please go down and serve the food!" Lu Chen ordered Lian Xiude. After Lian Xiude closed the door of the private room, he went to notify the shopkeeper to serve the food.
"I have brought a few bottles of good home-produced wine. How about you guys taste it?" Lu Chen said, taking out three bottles of prepared Erguotou from under the table and placing them on the table.
"Then thank you Mr. Lu for your kindness!" Wang Gui sneered and looked at the wine jar in front of Lu Chen. Although he said thank you, he had no intention of reaching out to take it.
Following Lian Xiude's announcement, the table was soon filled with dishes.
"What? Are you afraid that I will poison the wine?" Seeing that the officials from the aristocratic families in front of him did not move their chopsticks or drink, Lu Chen smiled and opened the stopper of the wine jar, and suddenly a strong aroma The aroma of wine filled the elegant room.
"If I want to kill a few of you, I have the means, and I won't resort to such despicable means as poisoning!" Lu Chen snorted coldly, then directly filled up the wine glass in front of him.
