Chapter 505 War Loan Treaty
The two old men were plotting to pit Li Chaosheng together, and the more they chatted, the happier they became. In the end, the two even laughed out loud. I don't know if they thought they were happy about their upcoming promotion and fortune.

But he didn't know that these two shameless old thieves were planning to do a sinister deed of not paying back their debts.

The two talked very late in the tent, and the next day they received good news, that is, the Lantian messenger asked Lu Xiangsheng to meet at noon. After hearing this, Lu Xiangsheng was so excited that he went to tell Sun Chuanting without even wearing his shoes.

When Sun Chuanting heard this, he was overjoyed at first, and then felt a little sad for some unknown reason. Lu Xiangsheng was about to renege on his debts, and he was a little bit reluctant to let his old friend do such a thing.

At the same time, there was still a little luck in his heart, Li Chao was as deceitful as a ghost, how could he not have expected that Lu Xiangsheng wanted to renege on the debt, since he dared to borrow, did he have the idea of ​​protecting Lu Xiangsheng.

But soon Sun Chuanting shook his head with a wry smile, and he thought of another possibility.

Although he doesn't want to admit it, Li Chaosheng is definitely a real hero that is hard to find in the world. Maybe he has really seen Lao Lu's idea of ​​reneging, but as a hero, he can see Lu Xiangsheng's heroic essence, maybe because of The hero cherishes the idea of ​​a hero, is he willing to make a loss-making business?
It's very, very likely.

Sun Chuanting sighed, looking at Lu Xiangsheng who was still happy about the upcoming repudiation, he couldn't help but wryly smiled, Lao Lu is a character, maybe he can't be as free and easy as Lu Xiangsheng when facing life and death.

Li Chaosheng's messenger made an appointment to meet at noon today, and Lu Xiangsheng asked the army cooks to make a small stove for the first time, and took out a bacon that they had treasured for a long time and was reluctant to eat for the Lantian messenger to cook a sumptuous lunch.

This may be because Lu Xiangsheng felt that he was about to cheat Lantian, and wanted to make up for Lantian.

The kitchen was busy, but Lu Xiangsheng was a little restless. He didn't know how many weapons Li Chaosheng would support him. If there were less, he might not be able to defeat Jiannu. .

Just like that, Lu Xiangsheng paced back and forth in the military tent, which made Sun Chuanting unable to calm down. After a long time, Sun Chuanting said: "Old Lu, come and sit down. Let's play a game of chess, so that time will pass quickly."

Thinking about it, Lu Xiangsheng slowly sat opposite Sun Chuanting and set up the chessboard, but Lu Xiangsheng's mind was not on the chessboard, he looked at Sun Chuanting and said, "Old Sun, do you think Li Chaosheng will be fooled?"

Sun Chuanting looked at Lu Xiangsheng and said, "Yes."

Lu Xiangsheng said: "How can you see it?"

Sun Chuanting said: "I don't know if he knows if you want to renege on the debt, but Li Chaosheng, even though he is half-hostile to us, has the world in his heart and is known for righteousness. Gunpowder will not support, but with Jiannu, this is the righteousness of the nation, and he will not be stingy."

Lu Xiangsheng nodded after hearing this. He agreed with Sun Chuanting that Li Chaosheng was a man with the world in mind, and he never owed anything in righteousness.

Maybe he can really see that he wants to cheat him with a batch of firearms, but he will really pretend not to know and give the weapons to himself for the sake of righteousness.

Thinking of this, Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help but smiled wryly: "I never thought that one day, I, Lu Xiangsheng, would become a villain who reneged on debts, but the one who betrayed me was a hero with a heart for the world."

Speaking of this, Lu Xiangsheng looked at Sun Chuanting and said, "Old Sun, what do you think of Li Chaosheng?"

After hearing this, Sun Chuanting took out his white pieces and placed them on the chessboard, saying: "There are many heroes in the world, let alone many, the world will belong to him sooner or later, and no one can beat him."

Lu Xiangsheng was silent after hearing this, and said for a long time: "Perhaps this is not a bad thing. The Ming Dynasty has too many disadvantages, and it is hard to get back. Although I try my best, I still have no way to recover. If the sky is changed, the life of the people will be easier." some."

After hearing this, Sun Chuanting sighed and said, "Yes, but unfortunately you and I will not be able to see it at that time. As former officials, there is no place for you and me in the new world. Maybe in the future, we may still face Lan Tian. At that time, it may be recorded in the future history books that the remnants of the previous dynasty, Lu Xiangsheng, Sun Chuanting fought against the emperor, lost, and the owl's head hangs on the city wall of the old capital, hahaha..."

Hearing this, Lu Xiangsheng shook his head, slapped a sunspot and said, "Maybe before that, I had already died under Jiannu's blade."

"That might not be a good home."

As Sun Chuanting said, he played chess with Lu Xiangsheng.

Sometimes time is like this. After a game of chess, it is noon. At this time, the cook is also preparing the banquet. In Lu Xiangsheng's handsome tent, Lu Xiangsheng received the envoy of Lantian, a freshman who graduated from Lantian College last year.

The envoy from Lantian was wearing a blue Confucian gown. Seeing that the two most powerful commanders of the Ming Dynasty were sitting on the seats, he was still not stage-frightened. my lord."

Seeing the envoy's self-reporting, both of them were smiling like flowers. They didn't have the consciousness of a senior official at all, and warmly welcomed the secretary to sit down. After all, the two of them wanted to ask Lantian County at this time, and they wanted to cheat Lantian in their hearts. Who is still arrogant at this time, quickly lower your posture, so that it is easy to operate.

Otherwise, my conscience will hurt.

Li Deming was not surprised to see the two of them like this, after all, before coming, the county lord had personally summoned him and told him some key points of the trip.

He is a relative of the Li family, he can be regarded as Li Chaosheng's nephew, and his father is Li Chaomeng's elder brother, so he can also be regarded as a Lantian relative with deep roots.

However, compared with his uncle, this kid is quite good. At least his academic performance is very good. When he graduated last year, he graduated with a good grade of No.3 from Lantian Institute of Political Science. After graduation, he was asked to leave by the Secretary of Lantian , directly become an intern secretary.

The relatives of Lantian still have preferential treatment in Lantian. Although this preferential treatment is not great, it is still there. Therefore, in the eyes of the high-level people in Lantian, whether a person can be reused, character, talent, and background are all considerations.

Yes, even though Lantian is so enlightened, the bad habit of being born in politics still cannot be changed, but the only difference from other feudal conservative factions is that Lantian's origin only occupies the third place.

The first is character. If this person has bad conduct, Lan Tian will never use it. Secondly, it depends on talent. is reusable.

But if two people have similar talents, and anyone can do it, the background is very important, because if he is from the Li family in Lantian, the probability of his betrayal is much lower than other backgrounds.

After all, if he is a relative of the Li family, his own family and friends are all from the Li family, and if he betrays him at this time, he will instantly become a lonely person, and even his parents can no longer recognize him. The cost of betrayal is much greater.

Therefore, the loyalty of such people is more credible. Therefore, among the Lantian faction, the kinship faction has always been strong. Some people would say that a family in the valley of Lao Li's family can have so many talents?
The answer is really quite unexpected, because there are really a lot of talents, and there are many reasons, but the most important point is that the old Li family was the first group of people who were educated by Li Chaosheng with modern education methods. The school is also the first primary school in Lantian, so when the people who graduated from the primary school grew up, they became the middle force of all walks of life in Lantian.

In fact, the gap between people is not as big as imagined. There are many people with outstanding talents, but they are buried in the mountains all their lives, just like when Liu Bang started the uprising, a Surabaya Pavilion produced many famous generals who later founded the country , Xiaohe County official, Fan Kuai butcher, Zhou Bo's funeral blower, Xia Houying, etc. A group of people, that one is not an inconspicuous little person.

But if they change the stage, they will become the founding generals of the country, or a famous figure of a generation.

This is the importance of the stage. Let’s look at the Li family in Tanggou Town, Lantian, Li Chaolong farmer, Li Chaohu horse thief, Li Chaomeng a monk, Li Dezhen, Li Debao, a hunter, Li Chaowen, a scholar who didn’t even pass the exam, Guo Bao, Yang Shubai, who landed Scholar.

These people may not even be able to keep their names in the normal historical track, but when Li Chaosheng provided them with a stage, they became excellent military generals and administrators.

And this kind of thing is not uncommon, just like the shame of the Han people, the scum Fan Wencheng, in Shengjing, used to be a down-and-out scholar, not even qualified to be an official, but in the Qing Dynasty, he became resourceful in an instant The big traitor, the number one think tank of the Han people in the Qing Dynasty, and the trouble of the Ming Dynasty.

And this is not an isolated case, Xiang Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong used to be big soldiers, but when the wind and clouds meet, they will turn into dragons and become Daming's deathbed.

So Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's words are quite correct, princes, generals and ministers, it is better to have kindness.

Platform, opportunity, this is the key to a person's success, just like what Rebs said, standing in the wind, pigs can fly.

What is the outlet, that is, when you do the right thing at the right time, you may not have outstanding ability, but if you choose the right path, you will eventually be rewarded.

"Come, Mr. Li, sit down."

Lu Xiangsheng politely asked Li Deming to sit down. Li Deming looked at Lu Xiangsheng's fake smile and remembered what Li Chaosheng said before he left.

"Boy, are you nervous?"

"A little bit, after all, it is Lu Xiangsheng, King Lu Yan, who is going to see him."

Li Chaosheng laughed and said: "Don't be nervous, Lu Xiangsheng is a man of hypocrisy, he is too upright, and his brain can't bend, so you don't have to be afraid of him. After seeing him, you just need to be neither humble nor overbearing. He will I took the initiative to flatter you."

"Ah, the county lord, here, is he flattering me?"

Li Deming couldn't believe it, Li Chaosheng laughed and said: "Of course Lu Xiangsheng's so-called flattery may not be as servile as you think, he should be polite to you, you just need to calm down."

"Fake politeness, why fake politeness?"

Li Deming asked Li Chaosheng, Li Chaosheng laughed after hearing this, "He wants to trick me."

"Hit you?"

Li Deming looked at Li Chaosheng puzzled, Li Chaosheng laughed and said: "Yes, this bastard wants to cheat on me and swallow my goods, but how can I let him succeed, I have already done everything, when the time comes you Just let him sign this war loan book, and you can behave as you like, as long as you tell him that you have prepared the ammunition he needs, even if you point your nose and scold him, he will not turn against you."

"What?"

"He owes me."

Li Chaosheng said meaningfully.

Thinking of Li Chaosheng's entrustment, Li Deming came back to his senses and looked at Lu Xiangsheng with a smile on his face. For some reason, the smile looked so fake.

Mr. Lu should not fake smile at ordinary times, this smile is really blunt.

Li Deming was thinking, and Lu Xiangsheng smiled at this moment: "Come on, have a taste, there is nothing delicious to march and fight, so I made some bacon, please don't mind."

After hearing this, Li Deming looked at Lu Xiangsheng and said, "Your Majesty Lu, you are welcome, we will have dinner later, let's talk about business first."

"Oh, good, good."

Lu Xiangsheng agreed with all his heart, and Sun Chuanting at the side gave Lu Xiangsheng a blank look. Your behavior is so abnormal now, aren't you afraid that the other party will see your flaws?

But Li Deming could only pretend to be confused at this time.

"Lord Lu, I am here this time under the order of the county lord to provide loan services to Lord Lu. This time we will prepare a batch of firearms for Lord Lu, including [-] hand grenades and [-] gunpowder. catty."

"where?"

Hearing Li Deming's words, Lu Xiangsheng's eyes widened, he got rich, got rich, three thousand grenades, ten thousand catties of gunpowder, enough to fight a rich chasing battle by himself, before Lu Xiangsheng chased them to fight the Manchu Tartars , the winning rate is about 40.00%, so now the winning rate has soared to [-]%.

And even if he can't win, with these gunpowder at the bottom, Lu Xiangsheng will not lose too badly, and he can even win back a large number of people, so Lu Xiangsheng can't help being excited.

Li De understood that he couldn't stand being watched by Lu Xiangsheng's eyes, so he took out a document from his arms and said: "The things are on the way, as long as Mr. Lu signs this war loan agreement, the things will be delivered naturally." In the hands of adults."

"War loan treaty?"

Lu Xiangsheng looked at Li Deming puzzled, Li Deming handed the document to Lu Xiangsheng, Lu Xiangsheng took it and read it.

The content is very simple. It is roughly that Lantian provided loan services to Lu Xiangsheng, a total of [-] grenades and [-] catties of gunpowder. What Lu Xiangsheng needs to do is to help Lantian develop within his own reasonable range, including business, but not limited to Business.

To put it bluntly, it is the collusion between government and businessmen. Lu Xiangsheng has nothing to do with it. Anyway, after this battle, the probability of his death is as high as 90.00%. At that time, the reasonable range of a dead person may be the hell. If Lantian is going to be in the hell To develop business, Lu Xiangsheng is willing to help.

But Lu Xiangsheng looked at it, suddenly frowned, pointed to a clause and said: "Here, what's going on?"
