My son, how could you be Lü Bu?!

Chapter 58 Angel Investment

Chapter 60 Angel Investment (Seeking first subscription!)

After receiving Shen Pei's polite refusal.

Lu Ping lowered his head slightly, his eyes thoughtful.

It was probably a raccoon dog in heat, caught between spring and summer, and it was quite excited at the moment, circling around him.

The two of them, a person and a cat, slowly walked towards their home.

Having been in this world for so long, this is the first time Lü Ping has ever worried about money and goods, showing a similar kind of anxieties as when he was a beast of burden in his previous life.

"Originally, I wanted to take this opportunity to bring the Shen family of Wei County onto my side."

"If a rebellion were to break out, with this connection, not to mention the south, at least Wei County would surely have many fallen scholars who would join them, which could be considered as barely filling the gaps left by those who rose up in You and Bing."

"It's just that... the production of Cai Lun paper is indeed a bit slow, so it's understandable that Zheng Nan is hesitant."

"Since we can't get any money or goods from the south, and we can't produce Cai Lun paper anytime soon, we might as well go to the drill ground these next few days and get to know my five hundred soldiers."

"It really won't work."

"Once I get to know my soldiers well, I'll go out and see if I can suppress the bandits and take some spoils from them."

"Or, we could speak to Fang Bo and have him lead these five hundred soldiers to the manor outside, wander around a bit, and intimidate Wang De."

"See if we can teach him to return the estate and use it as start-up capital."

"As for Wang De..."

"Ha, when the war broke out, the first person I killed before I left for the north was him!"

"And the Zheng brothers... I wonder where they've escaped to. Most likely, they're still in the manor, cowering with Wang De!"

"At that time, every single one of them must be killed to prevent future troubles!"

Thinking this way.

A cold glint suddenly appeared in Lü Ping's eyes.

But... he didn't have time to think it over.

Several calls rang out instantly from the direction of the Lü family's courtyard.

"Father!"

"Father!"

"Uncle Li is here!"

Hearing the sound, Lü Ping looked up in confusion.

All I can see is that...

Lu Bu, who had gone out early this morning, was now standing at the gate of his own courtyard.

"Uncle Li is here?"

"Could it be that you're sending some local specialties?"

Lu Ping raised an eyebrow and quickened his pace, heading towards the courtyard.

in the courtyard.

Sitting there was Uncle Li, who looked a little awkward with a load of goods in his hands, and Cheng Lian, who was sitting beside him.

Then he saw Lü Ping come in.

Cheng Lian quickly stood up and stood to one side with Lü Bu.

Li Bo, who was somewhat closer to Lü Ping, finally felt a little less awkward.

Before Lü Ping could sit down, he straightened up, stepped forward, grasped Lü Ping's hands, and spoke in a low voice with great excitement.

"Uncle Lü".

"I had been planning to come looking for you these past two days, but I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence. I was just selling some odds and ends at the barracks outside the city when I ran into your son."

"Since I didn't know where your new house was, I came along with your son to take a look."

At the camp outside the city, they encountered their own adopted eldest son.

Didn't they not register him when they conscripted him? What is he doing outside the city?!

Lu Ping caught the key point in Li Bo's words, and he subconsciously turned his head to look at Lu Bu, who was standing to one side. Lu Bu, feeling guilty, turned his head away and dared not meet his gaze.

Li Bo spoke again, attracting Lü Ping's attention.

"Uncle Lü".

"When I was hanging around the city recently, I heard from some of the small caravans in the place where I work that there are several good ways to make a lot of money, but they don't dare to do it because they don't have any connections."

"I immediately thought of Lu Bo."

"Is Lu Bo interested?"

Lu Ping, who was worried about not having start-up capital, raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, and his expression immediately relaxed.

"What are some good ways to make money?!"

She noticed that her father's attention had been drawn to her.

Lu Bu quickly tugged at Cheng Lian, who was standing to the side, signaling to the two that they could take the opportunity to escape out of the courtyard. Cheng Lian hesitated for a while before following him out.

in the courtyard.

Uncle Li continued speaking.

There are two main points.

"Firstly, the Zheng family, who recently monopolized the salt and iron smuggling business in most of Jiuyuan City by relying on the backing of our Prince, must have offended some big shot and their property was confiscated in an instant."

"With the downfall of the Zheng family, which was like a behemoth, the small caravans below, like us villagers, were able to get a share, more or less."

"The caravan I worked for took the opportunity to contact the Southern Xiongnu, a large tribe that the Zheng family had been supplying salt to. It was said that the profit from a single shipment could be tens of thousands of coins!"

"But because there's no one to escort us, we don't dare go there rashly, for fear of being double-crossed."

"Secondly, a caravan specializing in horse trading came from Zhongshan County. Hearing that there was going to be a war, they wanted to establish some contact with the army so that they could buy some captured warhorses after the army won a great victory and resell them to the south."

"Although this caravan has only been established for a few years and is still small in scale, its two leaders, Zhang and Su, are righteous and generous. The wandering knights who help the caravan are also very united."

"In just a few short years, it has flourished and shown considerable success!"

"Lu Bo has been promoted now, and he used to be an officer in charge of military affairs. Cooperating with them shouldn't be too bad..."

'

Li Bo began to talk incessantly, sharing all the information he had gathered during this period with Lü Ping.

Lu Ping was stunned when he heard this.

"Zhongshan Prefecture? The two major horse trading leaders, Zhang and Su?"

"etc!"

"Uncle Li, what are the names of these two horse merchants again?"

Looking at Lü Ping's slightly surprised expression, Uncle Li wondered what was wrong and responded hesitantly.

"The names... should be: Zhang Shiping, Su Shuang."

We left the courtyard.

It was still early, and there was still some time before sunset.

Lü Bu, leading the helpless-looking Cheng Lian, was about to head towards the military camp outside the city again.

At an age when his body was developing rapidly and his temper was raging, Lü Bu absolutely refused to stay at home all day listening to his father talk about rather complicated things.

He preferred to wander around the city and its outskirts, doing as much as he could for his father, such as beating people, making them submit, or making them cry.

He felt that a remark his father had made unintentionally before was very much in line with his own thoughts: "A true man should wield a three-foot sword and achieve unparalleled feats!"

only...

He had just walked past the government office and was heading towards the city gate when...

A slightly surprised voice rang out at that moment.

"Fengxian?"

"It just so happens that I was looking for you!"

"You have some free time today, so go home and tell your father to prepare a tuition fee!"

"At dusk, you will come with me to find Cai Yong, Cai Bojie! I will introduce you to him!"

Looking exhausted, Wang Yun walked out of the government office. When he saw Lü Bu, a rare look of joy appeared on his face. Beside him was Qian Zhao Qian Zi Jing, dressed in plain clothes.

Hearing Wang Yun's words.

Qian Zhao and Qian Zijing looked Lu Bu, who was rumored to be exceptionally brave, up and down, their eyes thoughtful.

Lu Bu, who was being called, suddenly changed his expression. He pretended not to hear and strode towards the city gate.

He hadn't taken more than a few steps.

Cheng Lian, who was standing right next to him and had been listening to everything, suddenly grabbed his arm, trying to make him stop. However, Lu Bu's strength was too great, and Cheng Lian, who had taken the initiative, suddenly stumbled and almost fell to the ground.

After this incident, the two of them paused slightly.

Wang Yun, Qian Zhao, and Qian Zijing, who were standing at the entrance of the government office, seemed to realize something and strode forward to greet them.

The three men stood separately and, without realizing it, surrounded Lü Bu, who was just about to leave.
