Chapter 197 Old Friends in the South
Before Lu Songli and his party set off, Lu Songli found Xue Xu, "Mr. A hundred hectares of land are the foundation for running Dragon City. What do you think?"
It won't take long for them to arrive at the place of exile. In Pingzhou, it is enough for her and the three brothers of the Qin family to be in charge. It would be a waste if he went together.
Xue Xu didn't speak, he was thinking.
"There were about six or seven injured brothers in the previous reconnaissance team, and they all stayed in Dragon City. They were slightly injured and only need a little rest before they can be put to use. In addition, I will allocate another one thousand taels of gold to you. Is that okay?" Lu Songli asked Xue Xu.
Hearing this, Xue Xu was quite surprised. Give him a thousand taels of gold and take it to Dragon City? One thousand taels of gold is equivalent to ten thousand taels of silver. They divided the spoils twice, no, they were dividends. The amount of gold and silver that the Sixth Young Madam and her husband received was probably around 25,000 taels.
She gave him ten thousand taels at once. Do you trust him so much? Xue Xu looked at her.
Lu Songli looked at him without hesitation.
Xue Xu slowly gave a hand-over-hand salute and bowed slowly, "Since the Sixth Young Madam can trust Xue, then Xue will do my best."
Lu Songli looked in the direction of Longcheng with a distant look, "The land in Longcheng is of great use to me. No matter what happens, I don't need to do anything else. You must keep that land for me. Of course, the premise is that you Be there too.”
Qin Heng, Qin Zhao, Xu Zheng, Yang Wei and others were all shocked by Lu Songli's generosity. Including the one hundred hectares of land, she had almost entrusted most of her wealth to Xue Xu. Did she trust him so much?
Qin Sheng didn't care. He was only responsible for getting the money and land back. Besides, most of it was her own private property. She could arrange it however she wanted.
In response, Lu Songli only smiled and said, "Don't use the people you doubt, and don't doubt the people you employ."
They were worried that Xue Xu would run away with the money, because they didn't know his ambitions and ideals, and they didn't know how difficult it was to do what he wanted to do. For his ideal, Xue Xu would have spent more than ten years of his youthful energy gambling with Chen Jiaye, but it was a pity that Chen Jiaye failed him. Similarly, Xue Xu would not hesitate to break his body to pieces for his ideal.
As long as he sees that hope in her, he will not let her down. Moreover, even if Xue Xu failed her, she would still have a way to get the land back. Just so confident.
Also because of Lu Songli's generosity, those members of the reconnaissance team who were slightly injured accepted the arrangement of leaving them in Longcheng and waiting for Mr. Xue's dispatch.
On the occasion of parting, Lu Songli finally told Xue Xu, "Mr. Save. Remember.”
As soon as Lu Songli said these words, Qin Sheng's eyes lit up instantly.
Qin Heng, Qin Zhao, Xue Xu and others couldn't help chewing the words, with thoughtful eyes.
Yang Wei, Xu Zheng and some of the keener members of the team also fell into deep thought after being stunned for a moment.
Finally, Xue Xu handed over his hand, turned around, and left with six members of the reconnaissance team.
Lu Songli and the others watched them leave until they could no longer see their backs, and then slowly started on the road.
Nandi, Main City, Xicheng District
In a large manor, a handsome and elegant old man was having a meal, with four servants waiting on him.
Judging from the square table, the food on the table is not very rich. There is only a bowl of japonica rice, two meat and one vegetable, and one flavored side dish.
Two-quarters of an hour later, the old man put down his chopsticks and felt his belly. After a bowl of rice, he had eaten not a grain of rice but a lot of vegetables.
Japonica rice is really his favorite, and he would panic if he didn't eat it for a day.
He is so rich and still eats so plainly. He is really frugal. The old man, that is, Ji Wuyin, sighed to himself.
Just after eating, he sneezed twice, so Ji Wuyin thought in his mind, who was talking about him? Could it be that someone is thinking about his money again?
When his confidant's servant got back a letter from outside, he took it and looked at it. He was very surprised. A letter from Xue Guangxian?
Seeing that the handwriting was his, and comparing the code with it, Ji Wuyin was sure that it was indeed Xue Guangxian's letter.
As he opened the letter, he thought, didn't this old guy disappear for three years? He thought he died in some corner.
When he opened the letter and read it, he began to curse. This old guy didn't show up for several years, but when he showed up, he gave him a problem. He really made a bad friend by mistake.
But what can he do? He still has to do what needs to be done.
Wait, he read the letter again, and then Ji Wuyin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, that old guy Xue Guangxian still wants to torment the Chen family? Isn't this revenge enough?
Ji Wuyin didn't think so. It was impossible for the old guy to leave the Southland without enough revenge. Since he left three years ago, he felt that he had gotten back the hard work he had put in with profits.
If it weren't for this reason, why would this old guy bother Chen Jiaye? It also involves a patriarch of the Xie clan who was exiled from Chang'an?
Ji Wuyin held the letter and thought about it, and suddenly thought of a possibility. Could it be that the old guy found someone new who wanted to help?
impossible! Absolutely impossible!
What this guy wants to do is too difficult. Extraordinary people can make his long-cherished wish come true.
And this guy's personality is very difficult to deal with. He is stingy and selfish, and he looks down on ordinary people. Only a leader with great talent and broad mind can convince him and be willing to assist him.
But where can such a person be found? He has lived for forty years and has traveled to many places. He has met countless people, including many outstanding talents. He has also mentioned a few people to the old guy, but they were all rejected by the old guy.
For so many years, the old guy has only taken a fancy to Chen Jiaye.
Back then, Chen Jiaye was also an ambitious person, otherwise the old guy would not have followed and assisted him wholeheartedly for ten years!
In other words, Chen Jiaye deserved it. It took him ten years, and Xue Guangxian helped him push the Chen family to the top of the aristocratic family, even surpassing the Gu and Lu families.
He had promised Xue Guangxian something before, but he kept shirking it. Did he really think that it was so easy to take advantage of Xue Guangxian?
Now, Xue Guangxian turned against them and joined forces with several other aristocratic families to rush towards the Chen family, directly reducing the Chen family's strength by 40% at its peak. It hurt him so much, didn't it?
The old man had misjudged Chen Jiaye. But at that time, he was still young. Now, after so many years, the old man's vision is very sharp. If there is really someone he likes, he is still curious about who the other person is.
Ji Wuyin picked up the letter and looked at it again, and found that the starting point was Liucheng, Liaoxi County? Is there a lord in that area that the old man can like?
No, when he writes next time, he must ask the old man. If the old man doesn't give him an answer, he will not do the things he asked him to do in the future! Humph!
Thinking of this, Ji Wuyin called his confidant and gave instructions.
So, before Xie Zhan arrived in Lingnan, some high-end restaurants in the south had already spread his legend.
