Lu Gong's banquet began. With the blessing of the county magistrate, almost all the rich people in the county came.

Then, Xiao He, who was in charge, made the name of the narrow place in the house. Anyone who had a thousand coins could sit in the house. For those who had less than a thousand coins, they could sit in the open air in the yard.

The people present were relatively wealthy, but they were still a little reluctant to take out a thousand dollars at once. However, it is said that the county magistrate congratulated him ten thousand dollars. These wealthy people are not too few, and they all put in their efforts to earn some face for themselves.

As the guests came and went, the number of people increased, and the number of gifts increased. Mr. Lu nodded with satisfaction as he looked at the gradually increasing numbers.

Although these gifts are added to one yuan, they are not as good as one-tenth of their original wealth. However... with this money, with a little operation and the help of the county magistrate, you should be able to make a comeback.

Thinking of this, Mr. Lu became even more attentive to the guests in the house. These people... are all their benefactors.

When the banquet was about to begin, Liu Bang and his gang came in.

Lu Wan quietly took out a few Qin Banliang from his arms, about twenty or thirty. He asked Liu Ji carefully: "Brother, how much do we pay for? If it is twenty, is it more or less?"

Fan Kuai looked at him with contempt: "What's your only twenty dollars for such a banquet? If you want me to say that we have to congratulate you at least five hundred dollars."

After saying that, Fan Kuai added: "How about we have a few dollars to pay 500 yuan? It sounds nice."

Liu Ji looked at the two of them with contempt and said lightly: "I heard that the Huaiguzi in Xianyang City was 100,000 yuan. That was the real hero. Today, I want to follow him."

Then, Liu Ji shouted loudly: "Liu Ji only congratulated 100,000 yuan."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the seat was shocked.

The county magistrate was even more shocked: "I'm just giving me ten thousand yuan. And Brother Lu has to pay back a portion of this ten thousand yuan. What is Liu Ji? He actually giving me ten thousand yuan?"

Suddenly, the county magistrate was a little confused: "Why is this name particularly familiar? Wait? Liu Ji? Could it be that the envoy of the emperor is looking for?"

The county magistrate's first reaction was to tie up Liu Ji and hand him over to Xianyang City.

But then I thought about it, when the envoy left that day, he clearly stated that he was not going to arrest Liu Ji. The above meaning was unclear and he couldn't act rashly.

What if... the messenger did not come to arrest people, but had a friendship with Liu Ji and came to reminisce about the past? If he offended Liu Ji, he would backfire.

Thinking of this, the county magistrate began to think about it: Should I write a letter to tell the envoy of the emperor that Liu Ji has returned?

The county magistrate has written a lot of letters recently, and he is a little addicted. In an instant, he has already made a draft. If he had not been with the guests, he would have already splashed ink at this time.

Just as the county magistrate was thinking about it, Mr. Lu was already excited and couldn't help but say, "There is such a hero in Pei County? Today I'm so eye-opening."

Xiao He said helplessly: "Liu Jigu has a lot of words and has achieved little success. Duke Lu laughed."

This means that he is just talking big, don’t be as knowledgeable as him. If you really want money, it will be embarrassing. It’s better to give him some face and not expose his cowhide. Everyone looks good on their faces.

How could Mr. Lu not understand what this said? If he put it at another time, he would laugh and it would pass. But today is not possible.

Gong Lu held this banquet to accumulate wealth. If one person had 100,000 yuan, he could double his income today. So, no matter what, he could not let this person go.

Therefore, Mr. Lu began to pretend to be stupid: "Otherwise, I like to be a physiognomy. I see this person as a noble person, and I am a true hero, so I will definitely do what I say."

Xiao He smiled bitterly and thought to himself: Isn’t this Liu Ji crazy? The matter of the Emperor’s Envoy has not been explained clearly, so why would he provoke Mr. Lu for no reason?

Mr. Lu personally met him out of the room, then looked at Liu Ji with a smile: "I wonder where this hero's 100,000 yuan is?"

The people around Liu Ji were also stunned. Fan Kuai and Lu Wan were both staring at him in amazement.

Among the guests who came, some knew Liu Ji and knew that this guy was a broken pavilion chief. Although he had a group of people under him, no one would provoke them. However, these people were not considered rich.

They can't get a hundred thousand dollars together.

Therefore, these people looked gloating and wanted to see how Liu Ji ended.

More people didn't know Liu Ji at all. They were all amazed. I don't know when Peixian had such a generous person. I was thinking in my heart whether to make friends after a while...

Liu Ji smiled and said to Lu Gong: "One hundred thousand dollars is outside, please follow me."

Mr. Lu agreed happily.

The others wanted to keep up, and Liu Ji smiled at them: "Everyone, it's just half a liang of money, there's nothing rare, please continue to have a banquet."

When the guests heard this, they sat down one after another.

After all, if Liu Ji said such words, he would feel as if he had never seen 100,000 yuan before, which was too embarrassing.

Liu Ji took Mr. Lu out of the yard, then walked around the house for a while, and reached the back door.

Seeing that fewer and fewer people around him, Lu Gong felt a little uneasy: Could this person be killed by seeking money?

Liu Ji stopped and smiled at Mr. Lu: "I heard that Mr. Lu's home was robbed by a rebel a few days ago?"

When Mr. Lu heard this, his heart ached.

He felt a little unhappy. What happened to Liu Ji? Why did he specifically poke people's pain?

But he didn't dare to have an attack because the people Liu Ji brought were standing nearby and staring at them with a strange look on their faces.

Mr. Lu always felt that as long as Liu Ji gave the order, those people would rush up and cut themselves into several pieces.

So Mr. Lu honestly replied: "Yes."

Liu Ji smiled again: "I heard that Mr. Lu's two daughters were also kidnapped?"

When Mr. Lu heard this, his face suddenly changed.

He only told the county magistrate that his daughter was robbed. Where did Liu Ji hear about this?

Seeing that Lu Gong's expression became more and more wrong, Liu Ji smiled and said to Lu Gong: "Not long ago, I went into the mountains with my brothers to hunt. Unexpectedly, I lost my way."

"By chance, we met a group of thieves. We fought hard, repelled the thieves and rescued two women. Do you see if it's Ling Ai?"

Liu Ji waved his hand, and Fan Kuai pulled out two sacks from the haystack next to him. The sacks were untied, and they were Lu Gong's two daughters.

When Mr. Lu saw them, he immediately cried.

I cried with joy.

The two women slowly opened their eyes and looked at the people around them with a blank look on their faces, not understanding what was going on.

These days, they have been in a daze, only knowing that they were knocked out and taken away. Then they were blindfolded and their ears were blocked, and they could see or hear nothing. They could only rely on the smell to know that they were in the cave.

If you are just blindfolded, that's fine, that group of robbers will knock him out from time to time.

Therefore, almost all of these two sisters have been sleeping these days. Now they have woken up, but their heads are also in pain. I guess they have been beaten so hard that they have been plucked up.

Liu Ji said from the side: "I know that Mr. Lu doesn't want to make this happen, so he secretly hid Ling Ai at the back door. Mr. Lu can take them home quietly without disturbing anyone."

After hearing this, Mr. Lu bowed solemnly to Liu Ji and said excitedly: "Great kindness and great virtue cannot be repaid."

Liu Ji said with a smile: "Mr. Lu, please be polite."

Mr. Lu called open the back door and asked the servant to bring his two daughters in, so he had a good rest.

After settling down the two women, Liu Ji asked with a smile: "I wonder if Mr. Lu's two daughters are worth 100,000 yuan?"

Mr. Lu slapped his thigh: "It's worth it, it's worth it."

One hundred thousand yuan is dead. Even if you make money, no matter how much you make, you are just a rich businessman. The key is connections and status.

And my two daughters have a noble appearance since childhood. If they can marry a powerful man and get married, their family will not be successful? This is something that can never be bought with a hundred thousand yuan.

Thinking of this, Mr. Lu excitedly held Liu Ji's hand: "Heroes, they are really heroes. Pei County is indeed a place for crouching tigers, hidden dragons. Let's go to the banquet. I want to drink some good drinks with you."

Mr. Lu pulled Liu Ji and returned to the yard with great strides.

After returning, the guests saw Mr. Lu and Liu Ji chatting and laughing, especially Mr. Lu, who was very attentive to Liu Ji.

These guests immediately looked at Liu Ji with admiration.

Judging from Mr. Lu’s attitude, Liu Ji is probably a big deal.

So, everyone was determined to make friends, and many people toasted Liu Ji with their glasses. For a moment, Liu Ji became the protagonist of the banquet.

While drinking, Mr. Lu secretly observed the guests present.

Wherever he came to Pei County, he began to marry his daughter to a local tycoon, so that he could gain a foothold here. However, his daughter was robbed, so he let go of this matter.

Now that my daughter is back, this strategy can be implemented again.

But...who is better to marry? Who is the most prestigious here in Pei County?

Mr. Lu looked at it and suddenly realized that everyone here respected Liu Ji quite well. It seemed that this person was a figure in Pei County. Although he was a little older, it was not unacceptable.

Lu Gong made up his mind secretly.

Xiao He, not far away, had already been stunned: Liu Ji is really a strange man. Where did he get 100,000 yuan? No, if he really had 100,000 yuan, he wouldn't be willing to give it to Mr. Lu. Why is Mr. Lu very attentive to him? Could it be that he had given him any ecstasy soup?

While Xiao He was wondering, a servant whispered: "Sir Xiao, my master asked you to talk to you in the back hall."

Xiao He hurried over.

Lu Gongzheng was waiting there.

He saw Xiao He coming and said with a smile: "Mr. Xiao, I have one more thing to do, I ask you for help."

Xiao He hurriedly said, "I am just a minor official, I can't afford to be an adult."

Mr. Lu smiled and said to Xiao He: "I have a daughter, and I am also at the age of getting married. These days, I have been looking for a good family for her. Today I have found it. Therefore, I want to invite Lord Xiao to talk about a matchmaker for me."

Xiao He smiled: "This is not difficult. Which young master did Mr. Lu look at?"

Mr. Lu said, "It's Liu Ji outside."

Xiao He suddenly felt the thunder and lightning boom: Liu Ji? It’s the big-name Liu Ji? The idle Liu Ji? The slick Liu Ji? That…
