Chapter 5: The Gift of Circumcision

Wei Xiang’s feedback was both plain and strong.

The education received since childhood will not allow Wei Xiang to act too fiercely in the face of unequal identity.

But his eyes widened, indicating that the food in his mouth brought him enough surprises.

There was no export evaluation, and there were only one dish after another, and then attacked the dishes you liked.

Lu Wu knew that the nobles valued "not speaking" and although they wanted to be commentators, they had to hold on.

And when he was having a banquet, there were constantly slaves in the family going back and forth to report the news to his grandmother.

The slave naturally could not enter the room. He could not even get close to the house within five steps. He could only look around from the gate and then run to tell his grandmother about some actions about Wei Xiang.

Due to the lack of words and the limited knowledge of the slave, he could only use some words such as "quickly", "frequently using spoons", "scared face", etc.

The grandmother needed a strong brain-stimulating ability to figure out what was going on. She guessed that she could eat her face and her face was covered with hideousness, which means that Wei Xiang was not only satisfied, but that she should be trembling in her soul.

Wei Xiang couldn't eat it until he couldn't eat it. He put down his dining tools and sat in his original position to bow to Lu Wu in a sitting posture.

He stood up, stopped talking for a while, but said nothing, and turned around and left with a bow.

This departure means that I put down some gifts and took people to leave the Lu family directly.

The gift included a carriage with unknown things, and nearly two hundred people.

Among these two hundred people, there were forty of various craftsmen, one hundred and ten young maids and fifty warriors.

As a retainer of the Wei family, Yu Che was far more respectful to Lu Wu this time than before. He first presented an incomplete list of gifts, which were bamboo slips strung together, but did not say what kind of way to cooperate.

It’s all here, how could Wei have not prepared a cooperation plan?

There was no explanation, only one explanation.

After contacting Lu Wu, Wei Xiang believed that the cooperation method he had decided before was not suitable and needed to go back and agree on a new cooperation plan before finalizing it.

Lu Wu, who does not understand the social customs of the Spring and Autumn Period, does not mean that he is a fool.

Before leaving, Yuche handed over the box containing the slave Danshu to Lu Wu.

The alchemy book is a kind of body selling contract written in red cinnabar on bamboo slips. When it came to Lu Wu's hands, it means that they would return to the Lu family later.

Yuche looked very strange and said, "The craftsman and the hero's alchemy book are followed by (Part 1)."

This shows that Wei did not intend to give the craftsmen and soldiers to the Lu family.

And now it is not a big deal to give people as gifts.

These may appear very valuable to the old Lu family.

For Wei, it was just a hair pluck.

All that should be gone is gone.

Lu Wu needed to go back to the process of entertaining Wei Xiang in detail in his mind.

But my grandmother asked my old family to invite Lu Wu over.

"Wu, in the future, there is no need to sue (me)." Grandma deliberately concealed her excitement and said lightly: "Terror to it (as long as you can revitalize the family, do your best)."

Before, Lu Wu realized that the grandmother looked at him strangely. Some things were done by accident, and some things were done deliberately, repeatedly testing the grandmother's "bottom line".

Now, he knew that his grandmother gave up on observation for some reason.

If the Lu family does not change, destruction will become a certain fact, it depends on when even the nobles are not.

The country will make big moves this year.

There are actually some supplies in the Lu family for the time being.

But warriors need to be hired from outside.

The old Lu family can survive this year, maybe a few more years, but when can they last?

Now, Lu Wu just went to Lucheng and seduced the Wei family's direct bloodline, and was obviously valued.

The grandmother's efforts may not be able to successfully hire a warrior, but she saw that Lu Wu easily obtained fifty warriors from Wei's family.

When the soul was replaced or something else, my grandmother only valued the blood of the Lu family.

Even if Lu Wu is not from the blood of the Lu family, it would be enough for the grandmother to revitalize the Lu family and serve the ancestors of the Lu family.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, what is valued is not the blood of whom. It is common for nobles to inherit each other, and as long as they can worship their ancestors, it is not a problem.

Of course, because Lu Wu did not understand the social interactions of the nobles in the Spring and Autumn Period, he still learned from some of Yu Che's words that those people left by Wei Xiang would be owned by the old Lu family in the future.

Leaving from his grandmother's residence, he couldn't wait to go to the craftsman's residence.

But I met my old man halfway through.

"Master." The old man knelt down and kowtowed, put his head close to the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "The craftsman, the (kind) of the scholar, needs to talk to Wei."

Lu Wu understood the words and words of the old family.

In other words, before the craftsman and the warrior's family moved here, even if there were alchemy books, it was not considered complete.

Lu Wu's mind was not on this, he just nodded and continued to go straight to the craftsman's place.

The status of craftsmen is not low now, but we need to distinguish whether they are family slaves or free people.

If Wei's family could send craftsmen out, they must be a family slave.

Lu Wu arrived at the place.

The craftsmen who had changed their environment immediately knelt down and saluted when they saw Lu Wu, looking a little scared.

In fact, they were not willing to become a slave to the great Wei noble family, to a property of a young nobleman who had never heard of it.

Lu Wu and Yan Huan asked, "What do you all have?"

The craftsman searched for the words he understood, but most of them did not understand what Lu Wu meant.

Some craftsmen even guessed what Lu Wu meant and carefully said their profession.

With one of them taking the lead, and seeing that Lu Wu obviously meant that, the rest of the craftsmen understood what to do.

There are forty craftsmen, and there are thirty of them who are professional in gold making, five are carpenters and five are bricklayers.

The same is true for Lu Wuyi's guess.

After all, his cooperation with Wei is about metals, and most of the craftsmen brought by Wei Xiang are related professionals.

He was talking to the craftsman, and the old man came again.

The old man had already prepared what he needed to "cut" and was waiting for Lu Wu to come over.

The so-called "split offering" is simply a set of relationships that confirm subordinates.

"Secretary" is generally only used in the "scholars" class.

When Lu Wu arrived at the field, he saw the roasted sheep.

The old Lu family was so poor that there were only twenty sheep left, but one was slaughtered for barbecue?

It was casually placed on a large wooden board, and you could see the oil flowing with it, and there was a bronze dagger next to the wooden board.

Next, the warriors cut the mutton with daggers one by one, put them on a wooden plate and presented them to Lu Wu.

Although Lu Wu didn't know what "severance" was, he could eat food without knowing how to do it, and think about what would happen if the warriors gave the food and retreated aside.

Even if each person only cut a small piece of mutton, the amount of it accumulated is still a large amount.

Fifty warriors, they cut their flesh and offered them, and looked at Lu Wu who was overwhelmed.

He looked at the roasted lamb with a lot of meat, then looked at the warrior who was waiting for something, and said, "Split it and eat it."

Although I don’t understand it, it is considered to be in line with the process of “slicing”.

He also instructed the family to slaughter sheep again.

He saw that the craftsman lacked confidence in the old Lu family, and the warriors were basically the same.

Has taken a crucial first step, and one or two sheep are still missing?

It seems like someone who doesn’t know how to buy people’s hearts.

As for the need to slaughter a few more sheep, I believe the elders will follow the actual situation.

Later, the old man asked Lu Wu to pick land from the sealed places and build houses and farmland for the warriors, so that they could truly complete the set of etiquette for determining subordinates.
