Chapter 420 Peixian is a talented person(1/2)
The two men, Taigong Lu and the Magistrate of Pei County, looked at each other speechlessly, only shed tears.
What was so sad that his years of savings were lost all, and his two daughters who planned to make friends with powerful men disappeared.
The magistrate of Pei County was considering how to explain to His Majesty if something happened in Pei County one after another?
Both of them sighed heavily, and then the Magistrate Pei asked the Qin soldiers beside him to busy with Duke Lu to pack up his things.
Mr. Lu entered the city.
Although the houses outside the city are beautiful and extremely open, they are not safe after all.
In fact, it was only temporary to enter the city, and Mr. Lu was re-selecting his address and planning to continue moving.
As for the magistrate of Pei County, he returned to the government office dejectedly and began to write the third memorial.
That night, the magistrate of Pei County bit off three brushes and never knew how to start writing.
When it was almost dawn, the magistrate of Pei County came to Xiao He.
Xiao He has a very popular reputation in the county and can have a good relationship with anyone. He is a versatile person. The magistrate of Pei County thinks that one person has a short plan and two people have a strong plan. Perhaps it is good to listen to Xiao He's methods.
After Xiao He arrived, he heard that the reason was told by the magistrate Pei, and he quickly made an idea for the magistrate Pei.
Xiao He said: "My dear memorial was just to tell Your Majesty that there were really thieves in Pei County. As for how the thieves came from? Did they kill themselves or were searched by the masters? You can skip them and not mention them."
"According to my opinion, it is better for the adults to write that day, after more than ten people robbed the people, the adults were worried, so they sent people to inquire and finally found their nest. When they encountered more than 500 rebels, they repelled them in one battle. Now they are searching for all their strength."
"In this way, after His Majesty read the memorial, his first thought was not that the adults reported inconsistently. Instead, the adults acted meticulously and knew the little things, and did not give the thief a chance. He was really a capable official."
After hearing this, the county magistrate's eyes lit up and he said to Xiao He: "Okay, okay, okay. I am enlightened."
The county magistrate became happier the more he thought about it. He danced with his hands and feet, and he quickly wrote a memorial and ordered people to send it to Xianyang overnight.
When the county magistrate was happy, Duke Lu came.
He came to see the county magistrate and wanted to say goodbye. As a result, he felt even more sad when he saw the county magistrate smile.
Originally, the two of them were unlucky together, but he felt a little better, but now the only one who was unlucky is left, which is unacceptable.
So Mr. Lu said with a little sourness: "The county magistrate is full of spring breeze. Could it be that there is any happy event?"
The county magistrate smiled and said modestly: "Just make you happy in suffering."
Mr. Lu sighed and said to the county magistrate: "I came here to say goodbye."
The county magistrate was stunned for a moment: "Brother Lu, you and I have been together for many years. Today, I finally got together, why did you suddenly say goodbye?"
Mr. Lu smiled bitterly and said, "The wealth of thousands of people will be gone in one go. If you don't leave, you may not be able to keep your life."
Then, Lu Gong bowed his hand and wanted to leave in dejected manner.
The county magistrate couldn't bear it. After all, Mr. Lu had a responsibility to fall to this point.
He thought for a while and said to Lu Gong: "Brother Lu, I will recommend someone to you. Maybe he has a way."
Mr. Lu is now at his will. After hearing the county magistrate's words, he felt a glimmer of hope and immediately asked: "Who is it?"
The county magistrate said: "This person is a minor official in our county, but he is quite wise."
He said to the servants beside him: "Hurry, go and invite Xiao Helai."
When Mr. Lu heard that it was Xiao He, he was slightly stunned.
Xiao He knew that he had met Xiao He from the day he entered Pei County. This person was considerate in dealing with people and was indeed a talented person.
But... what else can he do if his family's wealth is gone? I'm afraid that even the most wisest exiled immortal in Xianyang City will be powerless.
The magistrate Pei County pulled the random-thought-in-law Lu into the house, sat down and waited slowly.
Soon, Xiao He arrived.
After he came, he saluted thoughtfully to the two people in the room.
The county magistrate sighed and said to Xiao He: "Now, Mr. Lu's house has been repeatedly robbed by evil people. After years of accumulation, there has been a deficit. What do you think about this?"
Lu Taigong glanced at the county magistrate and thought to himself: Is there a deficit? It is obvious that he has lost all his money. It is also a pity that he is willing to cover up for me.
After hearing this, Xiao He thought for a moment and said with a smile: "This... is not difficult."
"Oh?" County Magistrate Pei became interested: "Tell me, please."
Lu Taigong looked at Xiao He with anticipation.
Xiao He said: "Lu Taigong is a powerful man. Now he has moved to our Pei County. People from all over Pei County want to make friends and congratulate Mr. Lu on his joy of moving to the house."
"Since that's the case, why not buy a banquet? Those who come to the banquet must send gifts. These gifts are added together. Although they cannot make Mr. Lu rich as before, they should be able to turn around."
"This is one. As for the second, through this banquet, Mr. Lu will definitely be able to make friends with the powerful men in Pei County. Since the two parties have become friends, there must be some business dealings."
"Mr. Lu used the gifts he received as capital and managed them with great care. Those powerful men knew that Mr. Lu was a good friend of the county magistrate, and would definitely not treat him unfairly. In the opinion of the following, Mr. Lu could only accumulate wealth in three or two years."
Mr. Lu nodded slightly: "This is a good idea. A banquet has capital and connections. However, I have never known the powerful men in Pei County. Are they willing to come to the banquet? Are they willing to take out gifts?"
Xiao He smiled and said, "This is not difficult. You only need the county magistrate to attend in person and host the banquet."
"The county magistrate is here, who won't come? In addition, when the county magistrate gives gifts, the amount is higher. When the county magistrate sees the county magistrate, they will naturally not give too little gifts."
Mr. Lu nodded slightly and smiled at the county magistrate and said, "When the banquet is over, my brother's gift will naturally be refunded part of it."
The magistrate Pei shook his head and said, "Mr. Lu was suffering because of my unscrupulous care. I should offer these gifts and money."
Mr. Lu bowed to Xiao He with emotion: "Pei County, there is such a person, there is such a person, I am convinced."
Xiao He smiled and replied with a greeting.
The magistrate of Pei County has already laid out the paper and plans to write a few invitations to entertain the powerful people in Pei County.
…………
In Mangdang Mountain, Wang Heng's spy drove a ox cart and staggered to the designated location.
On this car, half of the car is grain, half of the car is gold and silver, and some Qin and half liang are stringed into several strings and stuffed into them. It can be said that this ox cart is very valuable.
This is the meeting gift Wang Heng gave to Liu Ji.
Wang Heng did not reveal the intention of letting Liu Ji defect to him, because he knew in his heart that even if Liu Ji got money, he would never succeed. When he was desperate, he would naturally come to him.
The spy waited in the woods for a while, but never saw Liu Ji and others.
Looking at the time, it was almost noon. The spy suddenly had an impulse: If they didn't show up, could I take these treasures away? Find a place where no one was, two acres of thin fields and one cow, and the wife and children were warm to the kang...
But soon the spy gave up the idea.
If it was the Chu land in the past, it might be possible, but now the Chu land has a clearer household registration. If you carry a lot of wealth and an unknown origin, you will definitely be suspicious of buying land. Moreover, Wang Heng will not let him go.
The spy suddenly sighed, for some reason, and felt a dark feeling in his heart.
At this time, a sound of footsteps came not far away. The spy looked up and saw that Liu Ji appeared.
He forced a smile and bowed to Liu Ji: "General, my prime minister ordered me to send some money and food."
Liu Ji nodded with satisfaction.
In fact, they had arrived a long time ago, but they didn't show up. They were sure that the spy came alone, so they came out.
Fan Kuai, who was following Liu Ji, checked and found that the ox cart was indeed covered with gold, silver and grain, so he immediately drove the ox away.
Liu Ji told the spy some nonsense, and was sure that he could not follow Fan Kuai, so he smiled and sent the spy down the mountain.
After parting with the spy, Liu Ji deliberately took some paths and threw the spy away before returning to the cave where he was hiding.
Fan Kuai and others are counting the money.
While counting, his eyes shining, he said to Liu Ji: "Brother, how many weapons can you buy with so much money? You can even buy some horses and rob merchants farther away."
Liu Ji cursed: "Idiot, since I already have so much money, why do you have to do those head-losing things?"
Fan Kuai was slightly stunned and muttered, "That's true."
Everyone around asked Liu Ji: "Brother, what should we do with this money?"
Liu Ji said: "Pei County has become calm, so it's okay for us to go back. As for the gold and silver, just bury it here and don't move."
"After going back, these gold and silver things were secretly announced. We are working together to do some business."
"Whether this business is lost or made, it must be claimed to be profitable to the public, and then secretly dig out the gold and silver here and take it home."
"In less than a year, we all became rich. Everyone in Peixian would feel that we made a fortune in business and never imagined that the money was obtained from the rebels."
Everyone around him nodded repeatedly and said, "Gao Ming, brother is really smart."
Then, these people buried all the money. The scattered Qin Banliang were just divided.
After dividing the money, Liu Ji said to Fan Kuai: "Tao Gong Lu's two daughters are also brought with us. We said that when we were in the mountains these days, we happened to meet a thief. After a hard fight, we killed the thief and rescued the man."
Everyone said repeatedly: "Brother, this plan is excellent. He not only let go of two burdens, but also gets the gratitude of Mr. Lu."
Fan Kuai was a little reluctant: "In this way, how can I marry them?"
Liu Ji said helplessly: "We will be rich soon. Will it be difficult for the Ming media to marry you? With the friendship of saving people, Lu Taigong will definitely agree."
Fan Kuai thought about it and it seemed that this was indeed the case, so he laughed.
They knocked Lu Zhi sisters out of nowhere, blindfolded their eyes, stuffed their mouths, blocked their ears, then put them on sacks and put them on the ox cart.
