Chapter 9: Strange Combinations
The noble boys such as Wei Xiang left.
Even if the old Lu family didn't need to give Wei any gifts, they should prepare some small gifts for these noble boys.
Lu Wu prepared some new pottery as gifts.
This is his precaution.
To put it bluntly, it is just that there is something new in a family that is too conspicuous to use alone.
There are two big families who are using it. Others find new things. Those with too low status dare not ask. Elders with high status will not ask about such trivial matters. If the younger generation asks, the old Lu family can expand new connections.
Before leaving, the young man who came with him commented on Lu Wu, saying that as the head of the family, the old Lu family would not worry about prosperity.
The Wei family members knew that Wei was smarter than him, so they naturally believed in Wei Xiang's words.
Han Wuji, who was only responsible for eating, drinking and having fun, only cared about whether he could send a chef to the old Lu family to learn cooking, and vowed Wei Xiang not to use it for commercial purposes.
The Wei family during the rising period needs to make good friends.
Of course, Wei Xiang agreed.
As for things like not asking the parties involved at all, they subjectively ignored them.
Lu Wu devoted his limited time to more urgent matters.
The warriors' families and slaves are all here, so they can't sleep in the open, right?
The old Lu family did not want the warrior to complain, so they naturally had to speed up the construction of houses. The shorter the food and other utensils that should be allocated, the better.
They all had all been pessimistic about the change of owners. After a few days, they had changed their mentality based on what they heard and saw.
For example, a warrior named Lie saw in person how Lu Wu directed them, divided the labor and teams, and then carried out collective labor.
He concluded that his new master did not know the rest for the time being, and that his qualities in commanding the military were the most powerful of what he saw, and he would not worry about not having the opportunity to make achievements.
Another craftsman named Fang looked at him. He saw Lu Wu's emphasis on craftsmanship, and could hear Lu Wu talk about many new theories, and actually make things, and determined that even if the old Lu family was a small noble, they would be a very wealthy little noble.
More people think that in order for the warriors and craftsmen to have their own houses earlier, Lu Wu personally directed the labor, and felt that Lu Wu was at least a lord who took into account the feelings of subordinates.
The old group of people, they saw the possibility of the family rejuvenation, and would even be far more prosperous than at any time before, with only happiness.
As for what slaves would think? They would look at whatever they like.
When carrying out construction, the collective vitality is best reflected, and the people who can help come spontaneously. The warriors and craftsmen are infected by the atmosphere and devote more enthusiasm to their labor.
When Lu Wu finished what he should do and planned to take a break, the old man Zhuo came to report that there was a wise man coming to surrender.
Since everyone is said to be a wise man, Lao Zhuo must have had a test and considered himself inferior.
Lu Wu was very happy. What he was most worried about during this period was that the old Lu family had no talent at all, so he had to do everything by himself.
It's just that this wise man is a little weird.
He is a middle-aged man, and he can't tell the "elegance" that a wise man should have in his clothes. He even looks very embarrassed and has a backpack.
Lu Wu couldn't see what was in the backpack for the time being.
This person looks dirty, and I don’t know what hardships he has experienced. He looks like he has experienced many vicissitudes, giving people a feeling of dying at any time.
Nowadays, clothes are usually worn with deep clothes, that is, clothes that are connected together and wrapped around the body, cut separately but sew up and down.
In order to save fabric, civilians' deep clothing will tighten a little.
Of course, they can also wear irregular clothes, such as a sweatshirt top, with only shorts underneath.
The nobles wear dark clothes, and compared with the civilians, the fabric is better and the colors are more.
In this era, the more colorful the clothes are, the more they are, representing wealth and status.
The wise man wore a dark red dress that looked old but was extremely clean, and the man cleaned it up very clean, but the clothes had many patches.
All eras are concerned with poor literature and wealthy martial arts.
If you don’t have enough money and want to become a wise man who is knowledgeable about the past and the present, you will succeed in your dreams.
Lu Wu speculated that the old Lu family would attract some talents in the construction of the country. After waiting for some days, it would be considered as waiting for one.
He had all kinds of expectations before he saw someone, and he did not expect a powerful man, but...
When the two met, they didn't have time to salute each other, but the cry of a baby came from the basket.
Lu Wu and the wise man (he has not introduced himself yet) looked at each other.
"Let's wait."
"I……"
Lu Wu thought to himself that he couldn't see what middle-aged people have for the time being, but to attract people's hearts, it starts with babies.
The wise man was busy checking the baby and didn't care about Lu Wu leaving.
Lu Wu ordered his servant to squeeze the milk of goats and cows, and then handed it to the unnamed man with the bowl and small wooden spoon. He said softly: "It's hot."
Just now, the wise man just held the baby and patted the back lightly, and didn't take out anything to eat for the baby. When he saw Lu Wu handed over the bowl, he took it over and drank some of each type first.
The more Lu Wu looked at him, the more he felt that the middle-aged man was strange.
It’s not that middle-aged people drink something strange by themselves when they get it, but they drink both, but they just drink a little bit, which is more like trying to see if it’s poisonous.
After trying it, the middle-aged man waited for a while, confirmed that he had no discomfort and began to feed the food to the baby.
Lu Wu asked quietly: "Zi (sir), where are you from?"
"I'm rude." He bowed deeply, and gasped for a few times when he straightened his waist again, and said, "Come from Zhao Di."
So, this is a person from the original Zhao family fiefdom.
"Zhao's family was devastated, and they were in a hurry to hide from the mountains and forests." The middle-aged man did speak the accent of Zhao, which was not so easy to hide. He said, "When passing through this place, he saw that he was a promising (leader) under his feet, and he had the intention to act as a result."
Lu Wu asked, "Do you have a surname?"
The middle-aged man said, "Call the selves."
A yu (yīng) is a decoration on the neck.
Considering the current custom of naming, his family... or his ancestors used neck jewelry?
But when Lu Wu heard that the middle-aged man was from Zhao, he had originally hiding in the mountains and forests, and he also brought a baby one or two years old, so he had more associations.
He began to talk to the middle-aged man who claimed to be a sacrificial man, and asked about many aspects. He found that the middle-aged man was not familiar with other things, but was very skilled in the knowledgeable guest. (It is not ruled out that it is a disguise that the middle-aged man deliberately showed)
When Feng talked to Lu Wu, he thought it was just a small lord in a small place, and he had some ambitions to develop a good territory, which might be easy to fool.
Unexpectedly, after a while of conversation, he could not fool Lu Wu in some of his half-understanding things and was forced to show some real skills.
While Lu Wu was competing for the exam, he kept weighing the trade-offs in his mind.
He had actually guessed roughly what one big and one small are, but he was not 100% sure.
