Careerist in Qin Dynasty

Chapter 33 The Great Purge

The conversation with the housekeeper of Yan Chunjun's house was extremely boring.

Although the environment of Golden Terrace is impeccable, the dining table is also full of delicious food gathered by a group of talented people, and Gao Jianli plays the piano to accompany the music outside the dining table.

But Yan Chunjun's butler's nostrils were turned upward, and he was full of contempt for Lu Wei and several other representatives of Lu Qiuge.

Lu Wei and the other farmers didn't react much to this attitude, but Gao Jianli, who was playing the piano at the side, had cold eyes.

He previously boasted that he could be polite to the powerful, but now it seems that his practice is still insufficient.

The piano Gao Jianli used today was of course not a bell: for the little Lu Lu, just the most ordinary xylophone would suffice.

If it weren't for Lu Wei's sake, he might have walked away at this moment.

As for Lu Wei, who was treated rudely by the other party, his expression was still kind.

Anyone would be angry if he was insulted out of thin air, but that was not the case for him today, because what Lu Wei was thinking about were two other things:

First, there was a banquet for Butler Yan Chunjun today, and all the senior officials of Luqiu Pavilion were present, but he did not bring Lu Yu.

The reason why Ayu was kept at the Luqiuge headquarters was because he quietly gave him an order:
Gather evidence and arrest people!
After Lu Wei returned to Jicheng, he briefly reviewed the internal accounts of Luqiu Pavilion during the caravan's outing for more than a year. There were many problems!
It can be seen that there are many tricks in it.

In fact, this is not a big deal. In the chaotic environment of a farm, petty theft is common, and private falsification of accounts is even more common.

As long as it wasn't too blatant in general, even when Xu Qiu was around, he turned a blind eye.

If Lu Wei wants to stand up on this point, he will most likely put himself on the opposite side of the entire Lu Qiuge Pavilion's middle-level and even lower-level cadres.

But his purpose is not Su Feng!
The caravan is coming back soon. Many people in this caravan led by Lu Ye have expressed their loyalty to Lu Wei.

These people returned to Luqiu Pavilion. As the former acting manager of the caravan, Lu Wei believed that he had to make the decision for them and promote their status.

The requirements are not many, just one-half of the current middle and senior management quota of Luqiuge.

In this way, Lu Qiu Pavilion can truly have a firm say in the matter.

For the remaining half, after the situation stabilizes, we will win over a group and suppress a group, and strive to create our own one-spoken hall~
Although Lu Wei usually used the power of his command to control the peasant disciples in Jicheng, it was a pity that these people were not his own and were not reliable enough after all.

If you want to seize the power of these people, you will definitely be vigorously resisted. It is better to take them away from the base camp through this banquet of Yan Chunjun's housekeeper. When the banquet is over, everything will be over~

Therefore, even though Yan Chunjun's butler arrived half an hour late, even though Yan Chunjun's butler was arrogant, these behaviors actually helped Lu Wei delay time, so that Lu Yu could do things more calmly.

Second, unlike the claim that it was a temporary decision when gifting Gao Jianli the carillon, this second is really a wonderful thing that Lu Wei magically discovered at the banquet:
Although Yan Chunjun's steward was extremely arrogant, when Lu Wei and other members of the farm family showed their kindness to him, he did not care as much as he showed.

He was really promoting the resolution of the conflicts between the Yanchun Lord's Mansion and the peasant family. No matter how arrogant his words were, he did not avoid the possibility of resolving the conflicts after all.

This surprised Lu Wei. In his opinion, Yan Chunjun had no reason to back down from the farmers in Jicheng. Even if he went too far, Lu Qiuge would still have no choice but to give in.

Especially after Lu Wei presented the secret recipe for brewing wine from the daily treasure chest, Butler Yan Chunjun was even more excited, and even looked at the farmer's family with much better expressions.

Seeing this, Lu Wei had some vague guesses, which needed to be confirmed after tonight: If the guesses are correct, it will be a new surprise!

The banquet lasted from noon to evening. After a large amount of financial and benefit exchanges, the Xu family's banned properties only got back some scraps, but the Xu family liquor regained its original monopoly on those lower-level taverns.

In addition, through the special approval of Yanchunjun Mansion, Lu Qiuge can more easily obtain high-quality horses and transport them to Chu State.

However, each horse needs to pay an additional tax to Yanchunjun Mansion.

The quota is not large, [-]% of the profit.With this result, everyone in the farmhouse nodded to express their satisfaction, and the atmosphere became more and more lively at the end of the banquet.

As for the Iron Fist waiting in Luqiu Pavilion after the prosperity, it is a surprise that Lu Wei specially reserved~
------

"Manager Lu, what's going on!"

After respectfully inviting the steward Yan Chunjun to return home, a group of drunken senior farmers from Yan State returned to Luqiu Pavilion.

As soon as he entered, Lu Yu led a group of timid low-level disciples to take down all the senior officials.

Except for Lu Wei who was walking at the end and Gao Jianli who was watching the show silently.

Zhou Chu, as the deputy master of Lu Qiu Pavilion, worked hard to break away from the attack of the disciples. He looked at his colleagues who were captured all around him, and then looked at Lu Yu, who was responsible for commanding the subordinate disciples.
He turned his head and pointed his finger at Lu Wei, who had closed the door of Luqiu Pavilion himself, his tone full of disbelief and confusion.

Obviously everyone was nice to you and me at the banquet just now
After Lu Wei closed the door, he turned around and looked at Zhou Chu. In the next second, he used light kung fu to force himself in front of the opponent. He struck Zhou Chu in the chest with an ice palm move and knocked him away.

The agricultural machinery executives were already drunk and dizzy, and could only use [-]% to [-]% of their abilities. Now that they saw Lu Wei's methods, they were even more tempted to resist.

"Cough" Zhou Chu fell to the ground, his chest covered with frost. He vomited a mouthful of blood and struggled to sit up: "Lu Wei, you actually betrayed the farmer!"

"Farmer disciples, please obey your orders and catch this person. I will ask Hall Master Zhou He to take credit for you!"

"Hmph!" Without waiting for the reaction of the other disciples, Lu Wei took out the court order and raised it high: "It's you who betrayed the peasant family!"

In front of Gonggong's dignitary, Zhou Chu, the deputy cabinet master, had no authority and trust.

"Lu Yu, read!"

"Yes." After receiving the order from his elder brother, Lu Yu took out the evidence he had collected, opened it, and read loudly the illegal behavior of the senior officials present.

Upon hearing those 'crimes', no one present was surprised. Zhou Chu, as a sign of resistance, even laughed out of excessive indignation:
"Can this be considered a crime?"

"Peasant teachings: If you embezzle public funds and bully your disciples, you can take away the pearls and grass and submit them to a public trial!"

Lu Wei looked serious and took back the order in his hand: "The hall master gave me the power to take charge of Luqiu Pavilion precisely to find you and other black sheep!"

"You fart!" Zhou Chu yelled unwillingly.

Lu Yufei removed his chin with a slap from the front, and Lu Wei nodded: "Tear off these people's pearl grass and lock them into the backyard. We will inform the Jicheng disciples before punishing them!"

"In addition, don't let any of their cronies go, capture them all!"

"Inform all Jicheng disciples that those who have been harmed by these people's crimes can come to the headquarters in person to report!"

"Yes!" Lu Yu cupped his fists and accepted the order.

On this night, the farmers in Jicheng were destined to have no peace.

A hundred kilometers away from Jicheng, Lu Ye was leading the way. Beside him were two attendants carefully selected from the orphans.

Behind them, the caravan spread far, far into the deep night.

"Let everyone work harder and drive all night. We will return to Jicheng in two days!"

"Yes", a follower held a torch and passed the instructions to the rear.
