Chapter 17: But for the sake of the king, I have been pondering until now
Cao Cao limped forward, clasped his fists and said to Lu Bu, "Thank you for your kindness in saving you. Cao Cao and Mengde thanked me here, but I don't know the name of the hero Gao's surname?"
Cao Cao is also interesting. As a court counselor, he does not act according to the rules of the officialdom, but holds his fists like a person in the martial arts world. It seems that Cao Cao still loves the golfer at this time.
Lu Bu also clasped his fists and said, "What's the point of asking about mere trivial matters? It's Lu Bu Lu Fengxian!"
Cao Cao couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Lu Bu? Is Mr. Fengxian, who invented the pinyin of Lu Bu?"
Well? In just a few days, I am so famous that even Cao Cao has heard of his name?
Lu Bu couldn't help but feel overjoyed, but he had never brought it out on his face and said lightly: "I dare not take it as the word "sir". If I say that I invented the pinyin of Lu Bu, it's the next one."
Cao Cao couldn't help but smile, then turned to Yuan Shao and said, "Brother Benchu, I'll introduce you to a strange man! This is Lu Bu Lu Fengxian who I mentioned to you. It was him who invented the pinyin of Lu Bu."
Yuan Shao had heard the conversation here a long time ago. When he heard Cao Cao's introduction, Yuan Shao spoke, "I'm Yuan Shao and Yuan Benchu. There is no major family in Luoyang. Mr. Fengxian's family is not in Luoyang?"
(In the Three Kingdoms period, most people call themselves a certain person, but the mist and rain feels like it is strange whether it is written or looks. So, let’s use you, you, me, and let’s wait for the modern titles in the following text. Let’s declare it here.)
I have long heard that Yuan Shao is arrogant and looks down on people from poor families. Now it seems that this is true.
Lu Bu said lightly: "Bu's hometown is in Jiuyuan, Bingzhou. He is just a commoner, not from a wealthy family."
"Um!"
When Yuan Shao heard that Lu Bu was just a commoner, he said nothing.
Seeing this, Cao Cao couldn't help but be overjoyed. He loved Yuan Shao's arrogant personality so much that he gave in to such a talent!
Cao Cao quickly said, "Fengxian, Brother Benchu is like this, don't be surprised! Thank you just now for your righteous actions. Today I will be the host. Let's go to Qifenglou, the best restaurant in Luoyang City, to drink and talk to each other, and don't go back if you are drunk! Don't refuse!"
The purpose of Lu Bu's action was to get to know these two people. Now that Cao Cao proposed to treat him, Lu Bu naturally agreed happily.
Soon the three of them arrived at Qifeng Tower. The business of Qifeng Tower was very popular. Now it happened to be a meal. There were no empty seats in the entire Qifeng Tower.
Fortunately, the reputation of the two playboys, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, was not in vain. As soon as these two people arrived, the lobby manager of Qifenglou - uh, who was called the shopkeeper at that time, immediately made a single room for the three of them.
Then Cao Cao ordered eight kinds of vegetables, all of which were the signature dishes in Qifenglou, and another jar of Du Kang wine.
In order to satisfy Lu Bu, Cao Cao spared no expense today.
"Come on, Fengxian, let's do one!"
After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Lu Bu felt that Qifenglou, the best restaurant in Luoyang City, was just that.
All the dishes are cooked, but the meat has barbecue, but there is no cumin or chili noodles. The taste is not a little bit bad.
Lu Bu couldn't help asking, "Meng De, the Qifenglou business is so good, it must be very profitable, right?"
Cao Cao smiled and said, "It's not difficult to make money every day."
How profitable?
Lu Bu's eyes lit up, he looked at Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, and couldn't help but feel thoughtful.
Cao Cao had no intention of entangling this issue and asked as if nothing had happened: "Fengxian is not only very literary, but also very skillful. I wonder if Fengxian is going to be a civil servant or a military general in the future?"
Lu Bu drank a big bowl of wine and said generously: "A real man should take a knife and jump on the battlefield, and of course he is a general!"
"Haha, OK!"
When Cao Cao heard that Lu Bu was about to be a military general, he couldn't help but feel happy. He couldn't help but slapped the table with the intention of drinking and sang: "Sighing with generosity, worries and thoughts are unforgettable. How can I relieve my worries? Only Du Kang! The green collar is full of my heart, but for the sake of yours, I have been pondering until now..."
Lu Bu couldn't help but be stunned. Isn't this Cao Cao's short song good? But according to historical records, it should have been published many years later?
I guess many of the sentences were created in the early years, but later they went into a poem!
Lu Bu couldn't help but slammed the table and said, "What a poem, what a poem!"
Cao Cao was about to take the opportunity to recruit Lu Bu, but suddenly hesitated for a moment and had a new idea in his mind.
Now I only know that Fengxian has extraordinary skills in fist and foot, but I don’t know how he bows and arrows are? So what about the skills in the immediate future?
If he is only good at fist and foot skills, he will only be a personal guard in the future.
But if you have both bow and arrow and horse skills, then you will be a general!
The capital of recruiting a personal guard and recruiting a general is completely different.
Cao Cao decided to find an opportunity to test Lu Bu's bow and arrow and horse skills first. Anyway, Lu Bu was in Luoyang City and could not escape, and no one could compete with him.
Thinking of this, Cao Cao picked up the wine glass again, fucked Lu Bu and said, "Fengxian, the so-called "Fist is always in hand and the music is never left. Can there be training places in Cai's Mansion?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Bu couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Why don't you pick up this pot?"
The Cai Mansion is not the military general’s mansion, so where is there any training place?
Seeing Lu Bu's expression, Cao Cao couldn't help but smile and said, "Fengxian, why don't I take you to the military camp tomorrow?"
Hearing this, Lu Bu's eyes lit up.
These days, I can only do a few boxing moves every morning. I haven't rode a horse and used weapons for a long time. Lu Bu really felt itchy.
Lu Bu hesitated and asked, "Brother Meng De, I wonder if it is convenient?"
Cao Cao laughed like a fox and said vocally: "It's convenient, of course it's convenient. I have a brother who serves as a captain in the army. He will arrange it tomorrow! Then we'll agree that we'll see you at the entrance of Qifeng Tower tomorrow at the Mao hour!"
Lu Bu nodded and said, "Okay, we will be at the entrance of Qifeng Tower tomorrow, and we will see you all the time."
Cao Cao gave Yuan Shao another order, and Yuan Shao lazily agreed.
Until now, Yuan Shao didn't like Lu Bu very much.
It has to be said that Yuan Shao's family opinion has reached a deep-rooted level.
After eating and drinking, the three of them dispersed and Lu Bu returned to Cai's Mansion directly.
Cao Cao and Yuan Shao left with their arms around each other. Seeing their lewd smiles, they probably went to visit the brothel and drank wine.
After returning to Cai’s Mansion, he had already bought pork. Lu Bu cooked several new dishes and also selected several people to teach them in Cai’s Mansion’s chef.
After all, Lu Bu couldn't cook every day, so he could only teach the method to the chefs of the Cai family.
On the other hand, Miss Cai Yan and Miss Cai strictly ordered the chefs not to spread these methods.
Chapter completed!
