"Long time no see, you look good!" Lu Chen looked at the shopkeeper and said with a smile, "We pass by here on the road, just come in and take a look! Your place has changed a lot!"
"The owner asked us to renovate it, so we can only renovate it!" the shopkeeper said with a smile.
"That's right! Anyway, as long as it doesn't stop you from making money! Okay, I'm leaving!" Lu Chen came here just to see the renovation. Since it's the same as what he designed, Lu Chen doesn't plan to stay here anymore.
"Master, don't you want lunch?" The shopkeeper looked at Lu Chen in confusion and asked.
"I still have something to do! Come back when you have time!" Lu Chen waved his hand at the shopkeeper, turned around and left, leaving the shopkeeper with a stunned expression on his face, obviously confused as to why the county guild came here to see He left at a glance, but the shopkeeper immediately put this idea behind his mind. After all, he still understood the principle that the less you know, the longer you live.
"Master, let's go!" The shopkeeper said directly to Lu Chen's back, and Lu Chen waved his hand without looking back.
After leaving Changyuan Building, Lu Chen went straight to Luo Lifu in Pingkangfang. He would soon use the people she trained. This was Lu Chen's final test.
When we arrived at Pingkangfang, it was obvious that the number of passengers in Pingkangfang had also increased during the Chinese New Year period. As for Lu Chen's appearance in Pingkangfang, although some people noticed it, no one dared to come over to ask about Lu Chen. What's more, , a county official coming to Pingkangfang to drink wine is nothing in the eyes of these people.
Naturally, it was the old method. Lu Chen came to Luo Life and tested it again. It was obvious that these seven women had been trained well by Luo Life. Lu Chen was quite satisfied with this impression.
The screen retreated to the left and right, and only Lu Chen and Luo Life were left in the front hall.
"This matter was done well, I am very satisfied!" Lu Chen picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and looked at Luo Life and said.
"As long as the father-in-law is satisfied!" Luo Lifu said after saluting Lu Chen.
"I heard Fatty Qian say, do you want to leave here?" Lu Chen looked at Luo Life and asked straight to the point.
"Yes!" Luo Lifu also had some understanding of Lu Chen's temper. If you have something to ask of the young master in front of you, you'd better tell the truth. Otherwise, with his temper, he will definitely leave directly. , I’m afraid you won’t have a chance to talk to this father-in-law in the future.
"I can help you with this matter!" Lu Chen nodded directly.
"If we can get out of here, Luo Life is willing to ride for the father-in-law!" Luo Life said directly to Lu Chen and saluted.
"But not now!" Lu Chen looked directly at Luo Life and said.
"I know this is not an easy task, I can wait!" Luo Life thought that Lu Chen was saying that the auction was not finished yet and would not help her leave immediately, so Luo Life saluted again and said.
"You misunderstood! I need you to stay here for another three years! Stay for me for three years! Do you understand what I mean?" Lu Chen looked at Luo Life and said solemnly, and Lu Chen believed , with Luo Lifu's intelligence, he should be able to understand the meaning of his words.
"Three years?" Luo Life was stunned when she heard Lu Chen's words, but Luo Life immediately understood that Lu Chen had something for him to do, and it also gave him a chance to perform.
"If you don't want to, I can still help you leave here after the auction, but from now on, we will go back to the bridge and go back to the road. I will not help you with anything anymore!" Lu Chen looked at him with burning eyes. Luo Lifu said.
"I understand! I will stay here for my father-in-law for another three years!" Luo Lifu didn't even think about it for a moment, and directly agreed firmly.
"Don't you regret it? You have to stay here for another three years!" Lu Chen put down the tea cup and looked at Luo Lifu and asked.
"Don't regret it!" Luo Lifu clearly thought about his identity and said simply again.
"Okay!" Lu Chen looked at Luo Life and nodded. He was beautiful and smart. Lu Chen was very satisfied. "This guild will send someone to help you!" After Lu Chen finished speaking, he stood up directly.
"Slave, please send me off!" Luo Life hurriedly stood up to see Lu Chen off. Whether intentionally or not, Luo Life stepped on the hem of her skirt and threw herself forward.
Lu Chen had quick hands and eyes. Just when Luo Life was about to fall to the ground, he reached out and grabbed Luo Life into his arms.
Suddenly, there was a warm fragrance of nephrite. Lu Chen looked at Luo Lifu's delicate face and felt a little dazed for a moment. His original impulse was almost uncontrollable.
However, Lu Chen directly helped Luo Life stand upright, looked at Luo Life and said with a serious expression: "Luo Douzhi, I hope you didn't do it unintentionally this time!" There was a warning in his words.
"It was your fault!" Luo Lifu lowered her head, tangled her fingers, and said in a trembling voice.
"Your Majesty has granted me a marriage! It will be inconvenient if this matter spreads out. The most important thing is that it will affect my plans. Do you understand?" Lu Chen looked down at Luo Life and said.
"Yes!" Luo Lifu responded in a low voice.
"I am not a gentleman, nor am I Liu Xiahui. If there is a next time, I will not be responsible for the consequences!" After Lu Chen reminded Luo Lifu again, he turned and left the front hall.
"You don't need to be responsible!" Luo Life muttered as she looked at Lu Chen's leaving figure. She looked at Lu Chen's back with a pair of eyes and felt a little crazy for a moment. Besides, Luo Life didn't mean what she said. It's pointless. How can women like them from Pingkangfang have the authority to hold people accountable?
"Master, I see that the way Luo Douzhi looks at you is obviously different!" After leaving Pingkangfang, Liu Jing approached Lu Chen and whispered.
"I know!" Lu Chen nodded directly and said, could he not see what Luo Lifu was thinking? Although having three wives and four concubines is very common in this era, and Luo Life is in Pingkangfang, even if Lu Chen does something to her, just picks up his pants and leaves, Luo Life will not say anything, or even No one would accuse him of anything.
But Lu Chen knew why Luo Lifu had to work so hard to climb to the position of "all knowledge" and protect herself. This shows that Luo Lifu is not the kind of "casual" person. Of course, for other Pingkangfang Lu Chen doesn't have any intention of discriminating against women. They are all poor people. There are a few women who are willing to stay in such a place. It's just fate that makes people accept their fate. And Luo Lifu is obviously not the kind of person who easily accepts her fate. , otherwise she would not want to use her own strength to leave Pingkangfang.
Besides, whether Lu Chen himself was tempted or not, Lu Chen himself knew that when the warm jade and fragrance filled his arms just now, he was really moved. If such a woman throws herself into your arms and you are not tempted, then This is completely abnormal, but Lu Chen will not ruin his plan just because of his own impulse.
As for Liu Xiahui, in Lu Chen's opinion, Liu Xiahui is either incompetent or gay, otherwise a man would definitely be tempted by such a warm and fragrant woman.
"Gouzi, you have to remember that men have to shoulder the responsibility, understand?" Lu Chen glanced at Liu Jing and reminded Liu Jing solemnly.
"Yes!" Although Gou Wa was a little confused about what Lu Chen said, he would definitely carry out what his father-in-law ordered him to do.
The days are gradually approaching the sixth day of the lunar new year, and these days, Qian Junnan's pawn shop is in a bad situation. Today there will be a wave, and there will be a wave tomorrow, either people are sneaking around at night, or they are visiting directly during the day. In short, If you want to buy "Liu Li", Qian Junnan has experienced what it means to be "worried".
As for Bai Feng and the group of backwei guards, they were not idle either. They were doing shift work at night. However, after several encounters with those sneaky people, this group of people discovered one thing. Obviously, this group of people did not really want to attack. Instead of following Liuli, he just bluffed. As soon as he and the others took action, these people would run away, shouting at the same time: "We will come again!"
For several days, Lian Xiude and Bai Feng secretly thought that this method was very similar to that used by their father-in-law, because Lu Chen asked these boys to do this when they fought wolves several times. It's just that they are here for such a wolf pack, and these sneaky people are obviously torturing them, but the closer to the sixth day of the lunar month, the quieter the night becomes, and basically there will be no more sneaky people at night.
Qian Junnan gradually calmed down, but the city of Chang'an was no longer quiet. Heads of many aristocratic families actually came to the capital. Even those who couldn't come all the way, they had letters brought to their families in Chang'an. The person in charge of the city.
And these people are obviously here for the "Liu Li Meeting" on the sixth day of the lunar month.
On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, early in the morning, as soon as Changyuan Building opened its doors, carriages stopped one after another in front of the door of Changyuan Building. Following these carriages, many people in luxurious clothes walked directly out. Although these people were greeting each other on the surface, , greeted each other, but turned around and ordered the people around them to stare at which box the other person entered.
"Shopkeeper Qian, today's mortgage alone has exceeded Wan Guan! It is still increasing. Do we need more guards?" The shopkeeper of Changyuan Building found Qian Junnan standing on the second floor wearing a brand new and luxurious dress. , asked with some worry.
"No need!" Qian Junnan waved his hand and said, "Have the accounts been recorded clearly?" Qian Junnan looked at the shopkeeper of Changyuan Building and asked.
"I don't dare to remember a single copper coin!" The shopkeeper of Changyuan Tower looked at Qian Junnan and said with a serious expression. He couldn't remember it clearly. It was obvious that these people were all important figures from various aristocratic families. He didn't look at the officials from the aristocratic families in Chang'an City. Are they all accompanying me respectfully? If I misremember someone else’s account, I won’t even know how I died!
