Chapter 700: It's Not Just About Paying Back Debts
After a short rest, the Lu family and others were ready to get up and leave. However, it could be seen with the naked eye that these people were angry, but there was nothing they could do.
Lu Yuan had nothing to do about it. The Lu family was in business. Even if there was a big tree like Xie's above it, the sky was high and the emperor was far away. If Xie was there, things could still turn around, but if Xie was not there, it probably wouldn't happen in the future. Stand up for them.
After all, if you want to get ahead in the future, you have to go to the Green Algae Sect.
There is no way Xie could do such a thing.
But just when Lu Yuan was about to get up, a young man came and sat down in front of him. He looked at Lu Yuan and said with a smile, "Second Master Lu?"
Lu Yuan was startled, convinced that he did not recognize the young man in front of him, but he quickly took a look at the young man in front of him. He was wearing a black shirt and had a knife hanging on his waist. The scabbard was dark and he could not tell. What style, but it shouldn’t be the standard knife of the Liang Dynasty anyway.
Unable to identify the identity of the young man in front of him, Lu Yuan looked a little cautious and asked, "Who are you?"
The young man did not answer, but asked, "I heard that Mr. Lu just made a fortune of 100,000 days on the boat?"
Lu Yuan smiled bitterly. This is probably the so-called good things don't go out and bad things spread thousands of miles?
Lu Xin frowned and said, "Are you here to make fun of Mr. Lu?" .🅆.
Hearing these words, Lu Yuan quickly frowned. He had only suffered a loss during this troubled time, and he did not want to make the same mistake again.
But it seemed that the young man didn't care about this, and just smiled and said, "No, I happen to have a grudge against the Green Algae Sect, and I have been causing trouble for them for no reason. I wonder if Mr. Lu can help? Of course." , This help is not in vain, I will get back the 100,000 days of money for Lu."
The young man's words made Lu Yuan confused. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether the young man's words in front of him were true or false, and he was afraid that this was another trap of the Green Algae Sect.
"Second Master Lu, don't worry. I have nothing to do with the Green Algae Sect. I really have a grudge."
The young man seemed to have noticed Lu Yuan's thoughts and spoke again.
Lu Yuan smiled bitterly and said, "Your identity is unknown. Since you have a grudge against the Green Algae Sect, you can just go find it yourself. Why do you have to ask the Lu family to help?"
The young man seemed to suddenly realize something, and he nodded and said, "Then the Lu family is no longer needed, but I will still help the Lu family get back the 100,000 days of money. Mr. Lu will send someone to follow me?"
Lu Yuan remained silent. Based on his caution, he originally didn't want to believe the young man in front of him, but one hundred thousand days of money was indeed not a small amount. If he could really get it back, it would be the best thing.
"Your Excellency, I have to remind you that the leader of the Green Algae Sect is on the ferry. You are so young, so you should not go and die."
<
br> Such a young man, even if he has some cultivation, will probably die in front of the leader of the Green Algae Sect.
Lu Yuan thought for a while and decided to give up. Now that the matter has come to this, it is no longer realistic to think of any way to remedy it. It is better to admit defeat. Nothing is as important as bringing these descendants of his back to God's capital.
The young man glanced at Lu Yuan, still not angry, but said sincerely, "I really admire Mr. Lu. He can save 50,000 days of money in one sentence, but he didn't say it. I don't understand Mr. Lu's difficulties." I can understand that after I take the heavenly money, I will return it to the Lu family when I return to the capital of the gods."
"Young master is also from the capital of God?"
Lu Yuan was a human spirit after all, and he quickly grasped the key points of the young man's words.
The young man didn't say anything, he just stood up and left.
But as soon as the young man stood up, Lu Yuan's eyes instantly fell on the young man's feet.
There is a pair of dark boots.
Lu Yuan narrowed his eyes and recognized it at a glance, it was the standard official boots of the military attache of the Liang Dynasty.
Although the young man in front of him was not wearing official uniform, but with these official boots, he could conclude that the young man in front of him was definitely a military attaché of the Liang Dynasty.
In this case, Lu Yuan came back to his senses and thought about how this young man was dressed. Isn't it exactly the same as the new guardian envoy?
Although with the rise of Chen Chao's reputation in recent years, many young people have begun to imitate Chen Chao's dress. They can wear black clothes and carry knives, but no one will come up with a pair of large military attache boots.
Lu Yuan became a little nervous, "You are..."
But before he finished speaking, the young man in black shook his head and motioned for him not to say anything.
Lu Yuan calmed down and said apologetically, "I was a little offended."
The young man in black smiled and said, "Now, can you let someone come with me to withdraw money?"
Lu Yuan nodded, then looked around and said in a deep voice, "Who is willing to work with this young master to retrieve the one hundred thousand days of money?"
Most people were still confused at this moment when they got off the boat. Naturally, no one wanted to go again. Only Lu Xin had already vaguely figured out the taste. At this moment, he naturally no longer hesitated, stood up and said with a smile, "I do." "
Lu Yuan glanced at Lu Xin with some appreciation and said with a smile, "How about we let him follow the young master?"
has been viewed
Chen Chao, whose identity was revealed, smiled and said, "Of course."
…
…
After taking Lu Xin to the ferry, many people from the Lu family had already rushed elsewhere. Chen Chao looked at the young man from the Lu family and asked, "What's your name?"
"Lu Xin."
Lu Xin smiled and said, "I won't ask your name."
Chen Chao smiled knowingly, and then said, "I have heard of your name. It is said that you are a genius in Lu's family who knows business very well. But I think you are brave in addition to business." .🅆.
Although Chen Chao did not care about these things, he could not help but Xie Nandu often nagging him. Xie Nandu also valued Lu very much. In the future, the north would have to go to war, so money would be needed. Lu's best skill was making money, which would naturally be included in Xie Nandu's plan.
It happened that Lu and Xie were very close, so it was normal to mention it occasionally.
Although Chen Chao was reluctant to care about these things, his memory was not much worse than Xie Nandu's. In addition, it was Xie Nandu's words, so he naturally remembered them firmly in his heart.
Lu Xin smiled and said, "Since I am traveling with you, there is no need to worry about anything. Can I die there?"
Chen Chao smiled and said nothing more.
The two asked for a small boat at the ferry and discussed with the boatman about buying the boat. The boatman was reluctant at first, but then Lu Xin handed over a gold coin. The boatman had never seen so much money before, so he immediately sold the tool he had been using for many years.
Chen Chao and Lu Xin got on the boat, and Chen Chao joked, "I don't know how to paddle."
Lu Xin was also a young man from a wealthy family, so he didn't know how to paddle, but in this situation, he had no reason to let Chen Chao paddle, so he did it clumsily.
But soon, he was sweating profusely.
The boat didn't move forward much.
Chen Chao looked at Lu Xin, shook his head, and smiled, "If you don't know how to do business, will you starve to death?"
Before Lu Xin could speak, Chen Chao moved his mind, and the boat under his feet rushed forward.
Lu Xin didn't stand firmly, and the whole person fell to the river surface. Fortunately, Chen Chao grabbed his collar, which saved him from becoming a drowned chicken.
After Lu Xin stood firm, he was still in fear.
At this moment, he formally saluted Chen Chao, "Greetings, Lord Garrison Commander."
Chen Chao smiled.
"Do you dare to follow me because you know my identity? If you don't know, you probably won't?"
Chen Chao smiled and said,
looking at the business genius of the Lu family.
Lu Xin thought about it and shook his head, "Not really, but if my uncle hadn't seen your identity, even if I wanted to come, my uncle wouldn't allow it."
"But whether you know your identity or not, I'm willing to follow you."
Chen Chao asked curiously, "Why aren't you afraid that I'm deceiving you?"
Lu Xin shook his head and said, "I'm afraid, but I'm willing to take a gamble. I don't know how to say it, I always feel unwilling."
Chen Chao smiled and said softly, "That's right, after all, it's 100,000 Tianjin gold, a lot of money. If I had so much money back then, I wouldn't have to go to the mountains..."
Halfway through his words, Chen Chao reacted, scratched his head, and shook his head. How could he tell outsiders about such things casually?
"It's not about money, nor about being bullied. It's just like my uncle. He can save 50,000 gold coins by saying one word, but he doesn't want to say it, and the others on the boat don't want him to say it either. It's probably the feeling that something you value very much is despised, or even stepped on, but you can't do anything about it..."
Lu Xin sighed. He still remembers what happened just now, and he's afraid he will never forget it in his life.
Chen Chao said calmly, "Such things happen now, they happened before, and they may happen again in the future, but I hope they won't happen again in the future."
Lu Xin asked curiously, "Why does the Lord care about such things?"
"Whether it's Mr. Lu or those merchants, they are all good, but even though they did this, they must be disappointed and lost in their hearts, and they will wonder why they have suffered such things... In the final analysis, it's because we officials didn't do a good job. We didn't make this world a truly good world. As for why I did this, I want you to be less disappointed, have more patience with the court and Daliang, and keep hope."
Chen Chao smiled and said, "Of course, the main reason is that this is what I should do. I am the garrison commander of Daliang. All the people in Daliang who have been bullied by the outsiders are related to me."
Lu Xin thought about it, saluted again, and said sincerely, "The Lord is really a good official."
In fact, when Chen Chao killed Taoist Zhenye, he had already thought so.
But it's better to see than to hear.
He was looking forward to what was going to happen next.
The boat kept moving forward, and now he could see the ferry over there from afar.
Chen Chao touched the hilt of his knife and said softly, "How can you bully the people of Daliang and get away with it? Even if you are the master of Chixin Temple, you can't do that."
