Careerist in Qin Dynasty

Chapter 183 Giant Lake Monster

After walking out of Junjinxuan, 'Great Hidden in the City' stopped operating, and Lu Wei and Chen Ping reached a cooperative relationship.

Chen Ping had only one reason to convince the Hall Master: if he did not join the farm, he would bring greater benefits to Hall Master Lu Wei than if he joined the farm.

A lot of things can be done from a farmer's perspective, but there are always some things that are not convenient to do in a farmer's name.

At this time, Chen Ping's Taoist identity may be effective.

Lu Wei was noncommittal about this. This reason was reasonable, but not big.The reason why he really agreed to let Chen Ping maintain his independence and give him some help to achieve cooperation was that it was impossible for Gonggongtang to force him to join.

Either profit from limited cooperation, or simply kill them out of fear that they will be used by others.

From a practical point of view, as the leader of Gonggong Hall, Lu Wei must choose the former, but on the other hand, the latter can also make some preparations.

However, Lu Wei believed that judging from the current progress of his rebellion, Chen Ping and Xiao He would eventually fall under the name of Gonggongtang.

On the side of the Qin State, the two of them could seek refuge, but they would not have time to be reused. What's more, when the world finally progresses to the point where "rebellion is justified," they will definitely stand on the side of "justice."

Among the righteous parties, the greatest 'justice' will only be the peasant family of Lu Wei, the hero~

At that time, the only ones who could trust them and use them appropriately were farmers.Now that they want autonomy and cooperation, give them autonomy and cooperation and connect the relationship first.

Once a partnership is established, the results are immediately apparent.

In order to prove his role, Chen Ping provided a piece of information to Hall Master Lu as a surprise: There is a lake named Juye to the east of Wei State on the border with Qi State.

In Juye Lake, Juye water pirates are rampant, and Juye water pirates are actually composed of many different small water pirate gangs. Among these water pirates, the leader of one gang is named Peng Yue. He has outstanding abilities and can be the leader of Hall Lu. Efficacy!
Since he was born a fisherman and occasionally acted as a water thief and robbed passers-by, Peng Yue only needed a solicitation letter from a disciple sent by Lu Wei to recruit him.

Compared to the water thief, the farmer's flag looks more promising.

This is indeed a great gift. The ability in the name of 'Peng Yue' is more useful than Chen Ping imagined~

Regarding this matter, Lu Wei planned to send a letter to Zhong Ashan at the Dazeshan headquarters immediately after returning to the inn, asking him to recruit Peng Yue to work as a farmer in his own name.

Chen Ping has a Taoist status, and the hall master can personally take Xue Nu to visit Junjinxuan in the name of hanging out at the night market, making this meeting seem to be important but actually not that important.

For Chen Ping, this kind of recruitment effort is relatively large, but not very large.

But if Lu Wei really takes a bath and burns incense to pay his respects solemnly, he will definitely become suspicious again: he just exposed his flaws with Songhai merchants and Xiao He, and is not worthy of such treatment by the master of the farm.

The same is true at Peng Yue's place. No one can be worshiped by Lu Wei himself.Even if these people are very capable, they will be deeply moved by the special attention, but once too many complicated etiquettes are involved, they lose the sense of solemnity.

If you attach importance to everyone, this attention will lose the 'heaviness' it should have.

In the past, there were few talented people, so it had to be like this.

Now, providing appropriate treatment according to status and class will be more conducive to long-term development.

No matter what the future holds for Peng Yue, he is just a water thief now: After being recommended by Chen Ping, Lu Wei chose to accept the recommendation and asked Ashan to send disciples to recruit him. This was enough.

Now he doesn’t pay much attention to it. In the future, when Peng Yue shows his importance after making great contributions, Peng Yue will have a sense of expectation~
If you give your subordinates a full salary immediately, won't they have to be 'unblocked' in the future?
If it really comes to that, the hall master will give you the useless 'carved sword' in his hands.

After making friends with Chen Ping and arranging Peng Yue in his mind, Lu Wei and Xue Nu continued to have fun in Daliang City. This made Ashue feel a little touched. She thought she was going back after finishing the matter: Someone didn't do it before Such patient and tender companionship.

The reason why this person made such a change was because after having a child, Lu Wei gradually realized that he could not always rely on cold profits to win over his subordinates and the girls in his backyard.

You have to have a two-pronged approach. Emotional connections are sometimes more useful and attractive than direct benefits.This works especially well in the backyard. They are at peace and can save themselves a lot of trouble.

Wandering along the night market until very late, the master of the hall also bought a turquoise silver bracelet in a boutique shop and put it on for A-Xue himself.

It’s a pity that the weather is not kind. At first, the light rain was a bit pleasant, but then the violent downpour completely brought the night market to a close.

On the way back, the snow girl puffed her lips and looked very angry at the weather.There are several small towns in Daze Mountain, but they are far less prosperous than Daliang City.

Chen Ping's matter has been resolved. The original development plan for Spring Valley Town has been rejected. Lu Qing, A Yu, and Li Shang are drafting a new plan. It will take a long time to draft a qualified product and submit it to Hall Master Lu for review.

The retreat organization of A Ye and Chen Yu in Daliang City is coming to an end. Next, they need to take their trusted associates to the Wei State to collect information about disciples in various towns, towns, and villages and record them in Chungu Town.

The armored sect became the reason why the master of the hall still stayed in Daliang City.

The total number of disciples from the Armored Sect that Mei Sanniang persuaded to join the farm has reached one hundred. This number of Wei soldiers is quite a lot, but unfortunately they are not elite.

The hard function of the armored door makes the soldiers of the academy invulnerable on the battlefield. For those with advanced skills, such as the ceremony, it is a humanoid chariot, which can block crossbow fire and even gunpowder explosions head-on.

On the battlefield, it is almost equivalent to a flexible heavy tank running rampant in a crowd of cold weapons. In addition to the actual lethality it causes, it is also a practical deterrent to the enemy.

In the original time and space, the leader of the armored sect would have smashed 13 Qin army chariots and chariots head-on, fought for several hours, and finally escaped unscathed until he was exhausted and captured. He was known as the 'bronze head, iron arm, and a hundred battles. No harm. '

This is a battlefield demonstration of the Armored Gate's highest combat power.

Mei Sanniang's talent is considered to be very high among the armored sect, but compared with the ceremony, the gap is not even small.

The disciples she persuaded and recruited were far different from her. Many of them could only use certain parts to withstand sword slashes below a certain strength.

After all, unlike Dianqing and Mei Sanniang, they were the direct disciples of the old master and former Wei general.

However, even if they only learn a superficial knowledge, these people are a terrifying force on local battlefields.

After practicing for another ten years, their skills will be even deeper.

"Mei Sanniang meets Hall Master Lu and Miss Xue."

In the tavern outside the armored door, Lu Wei and A Xue met Mei Sanniang, who was carrying a scythe and drinking strong wine.

The former general of Wei must be an honest and upright person, otherwise he would not have taught disciples such as Dianqing and Mei San, who were both trustworthy and single-minded heroes.

To put it bluntly, these two brothers and sisters can be described as brainless. Therefore, after conquering Mei Sanniang through a bet a few years ago, the Hall Master has always been very relieved about her, and Mei Sanniang did not disappoint Hall Master Lu. The respect comes from the heart.

"Sanniang, get up quickly."

Snow Girl stepped forward and helped Mei Sanniang up. Her cold personality had been shining brightly these days, and Mei Sanniang and she were old acquaintances. Even after seeing each other for many years, she still remembered this straightforward person.

"Thank you Miss Xue." The rough and hard fist was held by Xue Nu's delicate palm. Mei Sanniang retracted embarrassedly. After thanking her, she looked at Lu Wei and solemnly said: "Hall Master, a few days ago, Manager Ye said that he would The junior brothers will be sent to Daze Mountain."

"Yes, this is my order. Wei may not be safe anymore."

Lu Wei nodded to indicate that the order was the same.

"Is the Qin army coming?"

Mei Sanniang was shouting in the tavern with a noisy voice. Mei Sanniang was not afraid of leaking the secret. The drinkers around here were all brothers from the Armored Sect.

"After capturing Yan State, Qin State's next target will probably be Wei State." Hall Master Lu only responded with a guessing tone: "There is not much time left for you. No matter how many brothers you can persuade, by the end of the year We must take them back to the headquarters in the end.”

"Pijiamen Town, I have already built it for you in Daze Mountain."

"Thank you, Hall Master Lu!" Mei Sanniang thanked him again gratefully, and then eagerly wanted to take action: "Senior Brother Jianqing is in the armored door now. If the hall master wants to see him, I will take the hall master there now!"

Mei Sanniang knew that she was a clumsy talker, and the way she could convince a hundred or so fellow apprentices was based on the fixed routines she had learned from Li Shiqi when he was still in Daliang City. This was her limit.

The hall master and Miss Xue are both smart people. Mei Sanniang thinks that they are better at talking than she is, so she hopes that they can persuade and persuade the ceremony. Maybe if it works, they can convince the senior brother, then the entire armored door can be hidden. Dazeshan, there is no need to work for the bastard King Wei.

"No," Lu Wei waved his hand and rejected Mei Sanniang's proposal. He had wanted to have a chat with Dianqing before, and his thoughts were the same as Sanniang's.

However, during the Songhai period, Li Shiqi told the hall master that he had met Dianqing three times before leaving Daliang. The leader of the Armored Sect had extremely strong beliefs and there was absolutely no way he could be made to change his mind before the fall of Wei.

Li Shiqi's eloquence is the best in the entire Gonggong Hall. Since he said so, Lu Wei believed in his judgment.

Letting Mei Sanniang do it was an act of her best, and she no longer had to worry about the ceremony:

"Mei Sanniang, when you see Senior Jianqing again, just say a word for me."

Mei Sanniang listened carefully without saying a word.

"The Armored Sect in Gonggongtang will always wait for him as the leader."

"Yes, I will definitely tell this to Senior Brother Jianqing!"

------

Peng Yue, an ordinary fisherman in Juye Lake, after catching fish and sharing it fairly with his brothers, went home with a bag of coins and found a handsome young man standing at the door of his house.

One look at his magnanimity shows that he is a 'big fish'.

But this 'big fish' is too big, and it came prepared. I can't eat it myself. If I insist on eating it, it will probably fill my stomach. I have to treat it with courtesy.

Staring at the precious sword on the young man's waist and the three-star pearl grass on his chest, Peng Yue recognized the person as a farmer's disciple.

"Are you Peng Yue, the so-called 'Giant Lake Monster'?"

The young man took the initiative to salute Peng Yue with his fists clasped. The standard etiquette gesture made Peng Yue a little flattered. The young and energetic man who had passed his age fearfully returned the salute: "Exactly, I wonder what this brother has to say."

Peng Yue's honest and honest face did not show any thoughts as deep as the vast lake.

"Peng Zhuangshi, I am Li Zuoche, the steward of Lu Wei, the leader of Gonggong Hall in the farmhouse. I have been ordered by the leader to invite the strong man to join the Gonggong Hall. I wonder if the strong man will accept it?"

Peng Yue had heard of these three terms: Nongjia, Gonggongtang, and Lu Wei, and understood their importance.

"It turns out to be the steward of the farm. Peng Zhong was rude."

Taking the initiative to change his name to his own, Peng Yue said cautiously: "I am just a nobody. I wonder where Hall Master Lu heard about Peng Zhong's nickname and sent the steward to look for it himself?"

"The hall master has his own methods." Li Zuoche smiled faintly, and quickly noticed that Peng Yue's eyes were not as timid as he said, and he did not dare to look down on this person: "I am just a small messenger disciple, I don't know. The hall master is very thoughtful and only knows how to act according to the hall master’s orders.”

"Can Master Peng give me an answer?"

"Of course, Peng Zhong has longed for the farmer for a long time!" Li Zuoche's image and temperament also made Peng Yue dare not underestimate him. He saw that there was no hostility in the young man's tone, and when he thought about it, he didn't feel that he had offended the farmer, let alone the farmer. If the force wants to murder him, he doesn't need to send a three-star pearl grass steward to talk nicely to him.

In this regard, he immediately thought of the name of a certain Taoist disciple he had accidentally robbed a few years ago: Chen Ping.

He once said that he would give himself a fortune.

Last month, Peng Yue and Chen Ping exchanged information via letters. They were in a cooperative relationship.

"Peng Zhong is willing to join the farm with Manager Li!"

How to choose between the two identities of a water thief and an upright disciple of a peasant family? Just as Chen Ping said, Peng Yue would certainly not hesitate to join the peasant family.

After the news that Gonggongtang had completely withdrawn from Daliang City reached Situ Wanli's ears through Zhang Erzhi, the gambler Situ immediately came to Shennongtang to find the Zhu family for discussion, but was told by the general manager Liu Ji that the Zhu family should go to the border of Chu State to deal with it. There was an internal dispute within Shennongtang.

The Zhu family hall master was not here, so he had to discuss the matter with Liu Ji. After hearing this, Liu Ji also frowned:

"It's strange to say that the expansion of Gonggongtang is just like the leader himself, who has always been domineering, but this year many fronts have become inexplicably low-key."

"What do you mean, Brother Liu Ji?" Situ Wanli was thoughtful.

"To be honest, Brother Situ, some time ago, Gonggongtang voluntarily gave up half of its management rights in Zuimenglou." Liu Ji said frankly: "The person in charge of Gonggongtang's appearance in Zuimenglou is Xue Ji. This Xueji Ji Ke is amazing, she is Lu Wei’s woman. When I first heard the news, I was shocked!"

"I'm afraid that Lu Wei, just to vent his anger, would imitate what he did to the Tian family and knock on the door of Shennong Hall."

"Is that so?" Situ Wanli was also a little frightened, actively looking for possible excuses: "Probably not. Gonggongtang has already ruined Tian's face. If he attacks our two halls again at this moment, does Lu Wei really have confidence? Use the power of one hall to attack the other five halls at the same time?"

"That's unknown." Liu Ji patted his chest: "Boss Zhu is not here. I don't want to go against Gonggongtang. The situation in Zuimenglou is an unexpected situation."

"In that case, I'll send Zhang Er to Daliang City to check out the specific situation."

Situ Wanli had no intention of talking further: "When Hall Master Zhu comes back, ask his disciples to come to Siyue Hall and tell me."

"No problem, Brother Situ."

Liu Ji was inexplicably afraid that he would leave as quickly as he came, so he personally escorted Situ Wanli away and followed him to Siyue Hall, where he gambled with his disciples in the casino until late at night.
