When Li Chongjiu received a secret letter from the Lu family in Fanyang from Lin Dangfeng, he read it and said with a smile: "It seems that the Lu family has been doing two or three times, and they can clearly check the details of the Lin Family Chamber of Commerce."

Li Chongjiu thought about it and decided to leave Mingyue Tower. He had been hiding for so long. The yamen runners had already withdrawn all the constables who searched for him, but there was a notice of his own wanted at the city gate, but it would be fine if he didn't leave the city. Moreover, since Yang Yichen's defeat, the left guards had already died in name only. As for Dugu Xiude, he had a title in his hand and had no real power at all. What's there to worry about?

Li Chongjiu was not anxious to leave the city. After reading the letter from the Lu family that proposed the negotiation conditions, he decided to go to Lu's mansion again.

Li Chongjiu left Mingyue Tower and immediately hired a carriage to come to the Lin Family Chamber of Commerce. The Lin Family Chamber of Commerce is located in Chengdong City Square.

After seeing Lin Dangfeng, the other party had no worries about being exposed. Lin Dangfeng smiled and said, "Prince, please rest assured. My family has been resettled long ago and is not in this county. As for me, I have one or two close friends in the prefect's mansion, the Lu family dare not hurt my life. The industry of the seagull Youzhou City is nothing. For today's Lin Family Chamber of Commerce, it's just a drop in the bucket. It's the commercial road from Zhuo County to Yuyi Town. There is still another road left. In short, there is no way to go."

Li Chongjiu nodded. This is the spirit of a great merchant. He can take it and let it go, very much like himself. Li Chongjiu said, "This is awesome. Brother Lin, don't worry. Since the Lu family has taken care of you, instead of sending someone to take you, it means that he has no intention of taking you. Even if you want to touch your Lin Family Chamber of Commerce, you have to think about it first. My Cangtou Army's army in Anle County."

Lin Dangfeng laughed and bowed and said, "I, Gao Yi. I, Lin, did not read the wrong person, nor did I follow the wrong person. So, since the Lu family invites us to meet, are you planning to meet as General Xu Lang?"

Li Chongjiu said, "Of course."

Lin Dangfeng frowned and said, "But the envoy, the conditions offered by the Lu family are too harsh, and even I find it difficult to agree."

Li Chongjiu smiled and said, "We can pay back the money by raising prices all over the world."

Lin Dangfeng nodded and said, "It's so good."

That night, Lin Dangfeng introduced the other two partners of the Lin Family Chamber of Commerce for Li Chongjiu, both of whom were from the Lin Family Chamber of Commerce. The next morning, Li Chongjiu and Lin Dangfeng rode to Lu's mansion in the carriage of the Lin Family Chamber of Commerce.

When I came to Lu's mansion again, the american tribe was still there, and the aura of the century-old gentry stood there. This time, a Lu family manager came to the mansion to greet him, personally picked up Li Chongjiu and Lin Dangfeng.

The manager of the Lu family said to Li Chongjiuyan: "Master Xu, this time, Master, the young master is holding a banquet in Cuixuan, please follow us."

After saying that, the car drove through most of the Lu Mansion and came to a courtyard full of bamboos. Outside the courtyard, Lu Chengqing was already waiting there, and walked along the pebbly path with Li Chongjiu and Lin Dangfeng. In the courtyard, there was a natural hill. There was a pavilion on the hill, and the crisp laughter of the woman on it came into his ears.

Li Chongjiu looked up at the sound and saw a few young maids wearing pearl rings and green red and green around a woman wearing a pair of beads and white silk skirts. She was playing shuttlecocks.

Li Chongjiu looked carefully and saw that the woman was about 28 years old, young and beautiful. As she kicked the shuttlecock one after another, the rings and bells sounded and laughed together, like music. Li Chongjiu saw Lu Chengqing on the side of her eyes looking at him secretly, and asked with a smile: "Do you dare to ask if this girl is from Lu's mansion?"

Lu Chengqing said, "It's my cousin."

Li Chongjiu speculated that he should be Lu Ziqian's daughter.

When Li Chongjiu came to the courtyard, Lu Ziqian had already set up a banquet there, with green plum wine boiling in the breeze stove and desserts on the side.

Li Chongjiu bowed and said, "Greetings to Mr. Lu."

When Lu Ziqian saw Li Chongjiu, he nodded and said, "Brother Xu has disappeared for many days."

The four of them sat down together. When Li Chongjiu saw that the mats he and Lin Dangfeng were ordinary reed mats, while Lu Ziqian and Lu Chengqing sat up higher, but instead of the cushion, which was different from the ones he saw when he met Wen Yanbo that day.

Li Chongjiu knew that the other party was wise. Although he was an envoy, he was a martial artist. Lin Dangfeng was the most despised businessman by the aristocratic clans and was not worthy of sitting with them.

But Lu Ziqian did not say anything about Li Chongjiu in his words. Lin Dangfeng was neglected. After talking a few off-topic words, he turned to the topic.

Lu Ziqian said, "Mr. Xue was defeated in a crushing defeat. Thirty thousand troops were gone, and only a few dozen cavalry returned to Zhuo County. Dou Jiande first defeated Guo Tongshou, then defeated Duan Da, and won a lot of battles in Hebei. This time he defeated Mr. Xue again. There are few people in the world who can control him."

"If Dou Jiande was certain in Hejian, he would definitely go north and Zhuo County would be the first to be affected. After that, Anle, Shanggu, western Liaoning, and Liaodong would definitely be included. I and Li Jun are now full of lips and teeth. So I thought about it for many days. What General Xu said that day was indeed the way to solve the problem at the moment."

Li Chongjiu said, "Mr. Lu is not busy, I have also looked at your conditions, such as the tax power of Zhuo County, the appointment and removal of officials, and the military power of 40,000 county and township soldiers, are not in our hands. I see that the prefect will not agree to this condition."

Lu Ziqian said, "Although General Xu is steady in his work, he is still a little younger. If you don't report back to your prefect, how could he know if he would agree? In this way, the gentry of our Zhuo County took another step back. This is the final bottom line. The taxes of Zhuo County will be 20% of you, and we will not embezzle the remaining 80% of them. Forty thousand county soldiers, township soldiers, officials of all sizes, and local flood prevention locusts will all come out from then on."

"As for the appointment and removal of officials, okay, we will implement the recruitment of the county magistrate, the official seal of the county, and the county magistrate of the nine counties. You can appoint and remove yourself, but the ruling, county magistrate, county magistrate and other secondary officials will be recommended by the various gentry of Zhuo County. Don't fight for this. Even if you fight, you send people to the party chiefs, village chiefs, and neighbors will not buy your account."

"If Dou Jiande attacks, it can be lent to you temporarily. You also need to help us fight Dou Jiande back. If there is danger in Huaihuang Town, we will do our best depending on the situation. This is the last bottom line of our Lu family, and there is no one to tell me."

Hearing this, Lin Dangfeng's face changed drastically and said, "Mr. Lu, it's so harsh."

Lu Ziqian raised his eyebrows and said, "Shopkeeper Lin, there is no place for you to speak here."

Lin Dangfeng was immediately angry, but he took into account the Lu family's momentum and did not dare to attack. Li Chongjiu reached out and Lin Dangfeng sat down again and said with a smile: "Mr. Lu, what the shopkeeper Lin said is indeed good."

Lu Ziqian's attitude towards Li Chongjiu was much better, and said, "General Xu, if it is just our Lu family, it's okay to agree to you, but the other gentry in Zhuo County all rely on our Lu family, and they really cannot stand up for them. You know that we are not considering your family. If you let go of this condition, Luo Yi will not be able to ask for it. If your Cangtou Army does not agree, there are others, please reply to the prefect and consider it carefully."

Li Chongjiu bowed and said, "Then I will pass a message to the prefect for Mr. Lu. I will definitely work hard to make this happen, but please don't be too hopeful."

When Lu Ziqian heard this, he laughed and poured a cup of Qingmei wine to Li Chongjiuyan and said, "Brother Xu, I am very grateful to me if I can go there for me. Have you heard that your prefect is young and has not yet married?"

Li Chongjiu thought of just now and immediately replied: "I already have a concubine."

Lu Ziqian smiled and said, "Where can the Hu Nv's place be the elegant hall? Why is Li Jun also a county magistrate with four counties in his hand? If he moves into Zhuo County in the future, he can be compared with the governor of Youzhou in the past. How could he not have a good wife and a mate?

I'm the daughter of my husband, I've just played shuttlecocks on the mountain, have you seen it?"

"Yes."

"How is the appearance?"

"The country is beautiful and beautiful."

Lu Ziqian said happily: "There are words among the people, and those who regret this life are not able to marry the daughter of the Lu family. This is just a joke, but the four tribes in Shandong, Cui, Lu, Wang, and Zheng, are recommended by us. Not only are our Lu family members. A real man is a beauty in the world. Prefect Li holds the country, but there is no beauty around him, which is a pity."

Having said this, Lu Ziqian also felt that he was talking too much and immediately looked at Li Chongjiu's expression silently.

Li Chongjiu thought to himself, OK, I've really got a trap for me, but Lu Ziqian is not the leader of the Lu family, and his daughter is certainly not as good as Lu Chengqing's four sisters.

Li Chongjiu said, "If this matter can be accomplished, I will definitely urge the prefect to propose marriage to the Lu family."

When Lu Ziqian saw Li Chongjiu finally understood what he meant, he immediately showed a teaching-worthy expression and said, "I have never concealed my true nature. At a young age, he is a prince of a country. When he reaches his level, he is worthy of my daughter. If you can make this happen, my Lu family will thank you very much."

At the moment, the Lu family held a banquet to entertain Li Chongjiu and Lin Dangfeng had some fun.

After drinking a lot of wine, Li Chongjiu was resting at the Lu family. At night, in the room with Lin Dangfeng, there was a plate of golden gold, a plate of Dongzhu, a plate of corals that were more than ten feet tall on the table.

Li Chongjiu and Lin Dangfeng looked at each other and smiled. Li Chongjiu said with a smile: "The Lu family is so generous. I want to buy myself for this reward."

Lin Dangfeng also smiled and said, "I am really envious of the envoy."

Li Chongjiu smiled, and just as he was knocking on the door, Lin Dangfeng went to open the door, and saw four beautiful maids who were stunning beauties standing at the door in a pretty manner.

When they met Li Chongjiu, they said together: "Master, let's come to serve Xu Guanren tonight."

Lin Dangfeng laughed at the moment and looked at Li Chongjiu. Li Chongjiu shook his head and thought to himself that this beautiful maid recommended himself to the pillow in the middle of the night. Mr. Lu wanted to let his energy be exhausted.
