[Author's note: My blood sugar has been controlled and stabilized in the past few days, but I haven't been able to leave the hospital yet because the wound healed very slowly.I have to change the dressing every morning and have time to write in the afternoon.Before being discharged from the hospital, the coding speed may still be very slow, so please be patient.After being discharged from the hospital, we will try our best to make up for it every day and month]

Lu Su hesitated after hearing what Liu Ye said.

Liu Ye asked curiously: "What is your reaction?"

Lu Su sighed and said: "It's still the same problem as before. If Brother Lu can start a new business, maybe we can stay. If not, I will have to leave sooner or later."

"Now that my grandmother is still here, those in my Lu family have no complaints."

"But grandma is old."

"Once she passes away, I'm afraid I won't be able to suppress those people."

"I think although my Lu family is not a super rich family, it is still rich."

"How can you be willing to stoop down and be a thug for others?"

Liu Ye nodded in agreement.

After a while, Liu Ye said: "Look! If it's true as Brother Lu said before, then we can stay. I always feel that he is not the kind of person to boast."

Lu Su hummed.

While Lu Su and Liu Ye were discussing where to stay in the future, Lu Yi also entered the room with Xu Shu.

The two of them took their seats. Lu Yi smiled and looked at Xu Shu and said, "Yuan Zhi, how do you like the two military books that Prefect Lu gave you?"

Xu Shu said seriously: "Study every day and don't dare to get tired. Now I have read it by heart."

Lu Yi nodded in agreement.

He has seen Xu Shu's efforts in the past few years.

Perhaps because he was an assassin, Xu Shu was very attentive when he was studying, even to the extent that he envied him.

With Xu Shu's hard work, Lu Yi had no doubt that if he took the college entrance examination in future generations, he would also be the number one scholar in his generation.

Looking at Xu Shu, Lu Yi said: "Read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles. Only by combining practice with books can it be truly useful to you."

"It is better to have no books than to believe in books."

Xu Shu said: "I remember it, head of the family."

Lu Yi asked again: "What do you think of Sun Ce's war?"

Xu Shu pondered for a moment and said: "Sun Ce is not only brave, but he also doesn't stick to one style in battle. Although people at that time did not think highly of him, they only regarded him for his character, not his ability."

Lu Yi laughed.

Sure enough, a famous general is a famous general, and his taste in judging people is not too bad.

Lu Su is like this.

Liu Ye is like this.

The same is true for Xu Shu.

Lu Yi said: "In this case, I will go to see Sun Ce tomorrow. Then I will definitely make some demands."

"At that time, I will ask Sun Ce to allow you to follow their army."

"They will soon attack Wu County, Wucheng County and other places, and even Kuaiji. There will be frequent wars in the future. You must follow and learn from them."

Xu Shu stared at Lu Yi with wide eyes and some disbelief.

Isn't this Lu Yi afraid that he will never come back?

Lu Yi seemed to have guessed what Xu Shu was thinking, and said softly: "You are the one placed by my side by Prefect Lu Kang. Although you are my guard, I have never regarded you as just a guard."

"To be exact, I treat you as a brother."

"So, I want the best for you as possible."

"If one day you really feel that it would be better to leave me and find a broader world, I will not make things difficult for you."

"As for your daughter-in-law, I will serve her like my mother when she is here, so you don't have to worry about it."

"Also, Governor Lu Kang's revenge needs to be dealt with slowly."

"You and I should calm down before we have the ability to take revenge."

"Otherwise, if you are reckless, not only will you not be able to get revenge, but you will also cause the lives of innocent people to be lost. It will not be worth it."

"It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years."

"You must remember this when you are under Sun Ce's account."

"You are no longer an assassin, but a beginner who has entered the hall of counselors."

"Everything should be done with your brain."

Xu Shu solemnly bowed to Lu Yi and said, "Don't worry, head of the family, Xu Shu will definitely live up to your high expectations!" On the morning of the next day, Gu Yong and Lu Su made a list of the assets of the Gu family and the Lu family. .

Lu Yi took these lists to find Zhu Zhi, and met Sun Ce through Zhu Zhi.

At this time, Sun Ce was in the district Afu Yamen.

There are many generals sitting in the government office.

The generals gathered in front of a map.

It was a map of Wucheng County and other places.

Sun Ce is leading the generals to discuss the upcoming expedition to Wucheng and other places.

Seeing Zhu Zhi bringing Lu Yi, Gu Yong and others in, Sun Ce asked everyone to stop the discussion, looked at Lu Yi and Gu Yong expressionlessly and said, "What do you want from me?"

Lu Yi and Gu Yong both handed over a scroll.

Astonishingly, it was the list of the Lu family and the Gu family that was made yesterday.

Zhu Zhi took it and sent it to Sun Ce.

Sun Ce took a look and was a little surprised.

The asset list of the Lu family and the Gu family!

Sun Ce looked up at Lu Yi and Gu Yong and said, "What does this mean?"

Gu Yong looked at Lu Yi.

Lu Yi said: "This is the list of my Lu family and Gu family. The head of the Gu family and I are going to return to Wu County immediately and give [-]% of our family property to help General Sun capture Jiangdong."

The whole hall was noisy.

Ever since Sun Ce's army entered Wu Commandery, the major families saw them as if they were ghosts.

Not to mention taking the initiative to offer food and grass, even if it is spread on everyone's head, they will not do it.

This also made Sun Ce forcefully seize grain and grass.

He even did not hesitate to use bloody methods.

This hasty attack on Wucheng County and other places was also due to the inability to collect food and other reasons.

Sun Ce intended to use this victory to make the major families in Jiangdong aware of current affairs.

Sun Ce frowned and said, "Offering [-]%? It's a stretch. Tell me, what do you mean?"

Lu Yi said honestly: "Of course I also want something."

"Our Lu family still has too little land in Wu County. If possible, we hope to sell some of the surrounding land to us."

"Also, I hope to be able to do business smoothly in Jiangdong and other places."

"Of course, we will not pay less in taxes."

"the last one--"

Lu Yi looked at Xu Shu behind him and said: "This is a friend of mine. He has always admired General Sun's ability to lead troops in war. If possible, I hope he can stay under General Sun's account, even if he starts as an ordinary soldier. .”

Everyone whispered to each other.

Zhu Zhi glanced at Lu Yi with relief.

These requirements are not excessive.

As for the so-called death of Lu Kang, the last head of the Lu family, at the hands of Major General Sun Ce, he didn't take it to heart at all.

In such a chaotic era, dead people are a common thing.

Moreover, the young general is so powerful, and knowing current affairs is the key to the prosperity of a family.

Looking at Sun Ce, Zhu Zhi whispered: "Young general, it's not too much. Moreover, we can set an example. Now in Jiangdong, everyone has such a bad impression of us. With the Lu family and the Gu family setting an example, others should set an example." Not too stupid."

Sun Ce looked at Taishi Ci.

Taishi Ci also nodded.

Sun Ce then closed the scroll with a smile and said to Lu Yi: "I will comply with all Lu Lang's requests. I remember when you and I first met in Shouchun, in the hall, you were the only one who agreed with me to be the governor of Lujiang. That kind of kindness , it’s time to pay it back today.”

"In this way, I will give you another benefit."

Sun Ce walked in the hall for a long time before he said: "Wu County is full of waste and is in need of capable officials. How about you serve as the chief clerk in Wu County and assist the new governor of Wu County, General Zhu?"

Zhu Zhi looked happy and nodded hurriedly to Lu Yi.

Lu Yi thanked him.

Sun Ce looked at Gu Yong with a smile and said, "What do you want, Mr. Gu?"
