God Catch starts with adding points

He waited at the door, and when Lu Bai entered, the eunuch Bai murmured in Lu Bai's ear, "After you go in later, you can say that you got the immortal wine last night, and today I'm here to present two cups to the emperor to thank the emperor for his kindness."

Lu Bai raised his eyebrows, waiting for the eunuch Bai's next words, this does not give him the benefits agreed just now, so you want to take away his good wine?

"Two glasses of wine, one for cultivation, and one for storage." The eunuch Bai lowered his voice, "If you promise, I promise you everything just now."

Eunuch Bai had a good discussion with the emperor just now, and made up his mind in a short time.

Just as Eunuch Bai expected, Lu Bai pointed out that Xianniu has the effect of stepping into the realm of cultivation and the joint trial of cheese. These two days are too much for the emperor.

During the discussion, the eunuch Bai saw that the emperor's face was red and his ears were red and he was panting heavily.

If he hadn't maintained a sliver of reason and knew that as the emperor, he had to do what he could, the emperor might have agreed without hesitation.

Seeing Eunuch Bai's affirmative answer, Lu Bai also nodded with a smile, and then followed Eunuch Bai into Yuxi Palace.

As soon as he entered Yuxi Palace, the emperor stepped down from his throne and ran towards him, "Commander Lu was frightened last night, you are fine, don't worry, I will remember your hard work and hard work in my heart."

While saying this, the emperor kept his gaze fixed on the purple gold gourd on Lu Bai's waist.

Lu Bai hurriedly said: "Lu Bai thank the emperor for his concern."

He took the wine gourd from his waist and said: "Yesterday, I got a gourd of immortal wine from the ancestors of the sect in the sky. Unfortunately, I drank a lot to treat my arms. There are only two cups left. Now I present it to the emperor." , to wish the emperor peace."

The emperor burst into laughter.

He also knew that there were not really only two cups in Lu Bai's purple gold gourd, but both of them were acting.

The emperor asked the maid to pass the wine glass quickly, and then said: "Lord Lu misses you so much, I am very relieved. It just so happens that I also have a few troubles. The lords of the two cities of Yan City and Yongle City have always been unsatisfactory. Commander Lu is from Yancheng, so he should be very familiar with these two cities, do you have a suitable candidate?"

Lu Bai poured a glass of wine for the emperor, "Your Majesty, this is a serious matter, why don't you go back and think about it carefully before giving the emperor an answer."

The emperor took the wine glass handed over by the maid, his eyes were in the wine glass, "That's okay, oh, by the way, when Commander Lu passed through Ankang City at the beginning of the year, he found out about the vegetarian meal at the corpses of officials in Ankang City. Think about the suitable candidates in Ankang City."

Lu Bai nodded in response.

At this time, Eunuch Bai took a small porcelain bottle, obviously it was for the second glass of wine, and he was going to hide it properly after filling it.

Lu Bai took the porcelain bottle and poured another cup into it.

While Lu Bai was pouring, the emperor took a sip of the wine slowly, "Phew, good wine, such a fairy wine, Commander Lu has a heart. From the Gu family, we are brothers, and I should repay you if my younger brother increases my wine. It is."

He asked the maid to bring over a set of scrolls, "This is the royal hunting ground located on the banks of the Ningjiang River. There are mountains and rivers. It is really a good place for practice. Commander Lu is a genius, so he naturally deserves a place for practice. The manor will be given to Commander Lu."

Lu Bai hurriedly thanked him.

Then, the emperor said: "I heard that Commander Lu intends to run a college? This is a great thing that benefits the country and the people. How about I write the plaque of the college?"

Lu Bai hurriedly agreed, "That's very good."

As a result, only silver was left, Lu Bai handed back the white porcelain bottle containing the wine to the eunuch Bai, waiting for the emperor's text.

Chapter 416 Surrender

The emperor drank the wine in one gulp.

"Good wine, good wine!" The emperor gave a big praise, then closed his eyes and savored it carefully, and opened his eyes after a while, with a look of surprise on his face, "Hey, this wine can actually improve my cultivation and heal my heart for many years disease!"

Lu Bai thought to himself that your acting skills are too exaggerated, just for a while, it is enough to see that you have improved your cultivation base, and you are not a practitioner like a wicked monk, so you can detect the nourishment in it.

As soon as he slandered, the Great Eunuch Bai played the role again, "Promoting your cultivation level is tantamount to prolonging the life of the emperor, and prolonging the life of the emperor is tantamount to making great contributions to my dynasty. Master Lu cured the emperor's long-worried disease by offering wine. Heart disease is even more meritorious. Your Majesty, you should be rewarded."

The emperor pondered for a while, "I remember that Commander Lu was born in Shuobei City. If so, let Commander Lu be named Marquis of Shuobei, and take over Shuobei City."

The eunuch Bai was surprised, and hurriedly turned around to congratulate Lu Bai, "Lord Lu, congratulations, you are the No. 1 marquis upon enthronement."

Lu Bai was at a loss, "Is this the end?"

He still wants silver.

The emperor looked slightly cold.

"Ahem." Eunuch Bai coughed dryly and said with a dry smile, "Lord Lu was so happy that he was at a loss for a while."

He approached Lu Bai, tugged on Lu Bai's sleeve, then bowed and said, "The emperor just drank the immortal wine, he should go to rest earlier."

The emperor's face softened a little, and he saw Lu Bai walking towards the dormitory.

After the emperor's figure disappeared, the eunuch Bai turned his head, and just as he was about to speak, Lu Bai said bluntly, "Old Bai, one glass of this wine is fine, but I'm afraid the emperor's body won't be able to hold it if I have two glasses. You go and get it back for me."

Eunuch Bai knew what Lu Bai was thinking.

He grabbed Lu Bai and walked out of Yuxi Palace, "My Lord Lu, the emperor has already given you the silver."

Lu Bai was puzzled, why he didn't see where the money came from.

Seeing Lu Bai's doubts, Eunuch Bai hurriedly explained in a low voice: "The beneficiary of Shuobei City, isn't this just silver? The beneficiary includes all taxes and everything is handed over to you, Lord Marquis."

Lu Bai was a little confused for a while, "Wait a minute, Shuobei City is still in Beiman's hands, right?"

Isn't this borrowing flowers to offer Buddha?

No, it should be grabbing flowers and offering Buddha.

Lu Bai can't get any money from Shuobei City now, unless he destroys Shuobei City.

Lu Bai thought, is it the emperor's idea?

"Master Hou, how can you be so smart that you are always confused for a while. It is true that Shuobei City is in the hands of Beiman, but don't forget that Yongle City is one of the very important trade routes going north from the city. Every year, it passes through Yongle City, The amount of grain, silk, porcelain, and tea that entered Beiman from Shuobei City was unimaginable, and the amount of fur that came in from Beiman was like a cow's hair, not to mention that Shuobei City is also close to Xishu."

With this tax alone, Lu Bai can earn a lot of money every year.

"Oh, I understand." Lu Bai was stunned.

He doesn't seek his own government when he is not in his position, and he knows very little about taxation. Now that Eunuch Bai said this, he immediately understood. To put it bluntly, even though he is not in Shuobei City, he can still collect taxes in the name of Shuobeihou .

All goods imported and exported on the commercial road in Shuobei City have to pay taxes.

Lu Bai thought to himself, Shuobei City is located at the junction of the Three Kingdoms, and the sea of ​​taxes for experts has gone, so it is indeed a good way to get money.What's more, it seems that Yongle City will also be in his hands, and he has the opportunity to control the customs duties in his own hands.

The only problem now is who to recommend to be the city lord.

Lu Bai still didn't have a good manpower for a while.

He could only recommend himself as Gu Qinghuan said, when someone came to his door.

He summoned the gods last night, and many people think that he should be regarded as the same as the Eight Great Sects. Today, he will be his secular power, right?

Lu Bai thought about this in his heart, and seeing that there was nothing wrong in the palace, he bid farewell to Eunuch Bai.

Eunuch Bai had to take into account the emperor's condition after drinking the fairy wine, and also had to take into account the many affairs that had just taken over the Neishutang, so it was inconvenient to keep Lu Bai, so he sent Lu Bai away after a few pleasantries.

After Lu Bai left the palace, he looked around, thinking about going to Taohua to have a look, when a carriage heard in front of him.

A young man got out of the car and saluted Lu Bai respectfully, "Shen Xi has seen Mr. Lu."

"It should be Lord Hou." Lu Bai corrected him.

This Lord Hou sounds much better than Mr. Lu, and he bought it with two glasses of wine. Wouldn't it be a loss not to listen to it more?

The young man was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Lu Bai in surprise, and hurriedly saluted again, "Shen Xi met Lu Houye."

"Shen Xi?" Lu Bai felt that he seemed to have heard his name somewhere.

Shen Xi hurriedly reminded Lu Bai, "The villain met Lu Da in the backyard of Meiji Buzhuang... Hou Ye, you were investigating the case at that time."

"Oh." Lu Bai remembered.

This Shen Xi is the second son of the head of the Shen family, and he was looking for money from Lian'er.

Lu Bai remembered him.

At that time, Shen Xi completely regarded Lu Bai as a passerby, and did not say a few words.

Seeing that Lu Bai remembered it, Shen Xi hurriedly invited: "My father hosted a banquet in Juxian Pavilion in honor of Lord Marquis, so I'm specially invited to invite him, and Lord Marquis Lu is also invited to honor him."

Lu Bai immediately understood that the Shen family saw that Jianzhai had nowhere to go, so they adjusted their strategy in time and came to him.

This is really sleepy and come to the pillow.

"Row."

Lu Bai nodded happily, then got into the carriage, and washed away to Juxian Pavilion with Shen.

In the car, Shen Xi still didn't say much, but he was not turning a blind eye like before, but a little more in awe, but felt extremely awkward, so he could only peek at Lu Bai from time to time.

Lu Bai chuckled, leaned back in the chair and closed his eyes to rest his mind, taking a sip of wine from time to time.

Of course, what he drank was not the wine from the purple gold gourd, but medicinal wine.

Lu Bai understood Shen Xi's current mood very well.

As the so-called young and vigorous, young people don't feel that they are inferior to others. They think that with their own abilities, one day they will definitely become famous and stand on the top of the admiration of thousands of people. Now they suddenly have to respect a peer. uncomfortable.

This is normal.

Lu Bai is also young...

No, he was already young, if there was no such thing as a panel, he would probably be the same as Shen Xi.

This is called heart.

The carriage went extremely quietly, and before he knew it, he had already arrived at the gate of Juxian Pavilion.

Lu Bai got out of the car, looked at the sky, and saw a ray of sunlight appearing between the clouds, but it was a pity that the sunlight was too weak after all. Lu Bai knew that in this rainy season, it would have to rain for a while before the haze would dissipate. do.

Lu Bai turned his head and saw the head of the Shen family, Shen Xi's father Shen Shixing, Shen Xi's elder brother Shen Yan, and several elders of the family were already waiting in front of the door.

Lu Bai took a special look, Lian'er was not there, it seems that the shopkeeper Shen of Meiji Buzhuang does not have a high status in the Shen family.

Of course, Lu Bai didn't intend to improve Shen's shopkeeper's status, so let Lian'er be an undercover agent in Shen's house.

Lu Bai bowed his hands to them, "I kept you waiting for a long time."

Just as Shen Shixing was about to speak, Shen Xi walked up to him and whispered something in his ear, and then Shen Shixing said: "Congratulations to Lord Lu, you have been granted the title of Marquis by cracking the soil. Lord Lu is still the first emperor after he ascended the throne. It is worth celebrating. My banquet It's just in time."

Lu Bai waved his hand, "It's all because of the emperor's love."

"It's true that the emperor loves you, but this is inseparable from Lord Lu Hou's youthful talent, shrewdness and ability." An old man next to him said.

Shen Yan interrupted at the right time, "Master Hou, father, let's stop standing here and take a seat."

"Okay, okay." Shen Shixing asked Lu Bai to go in sideways.

After Lu Bai entered the building, Shen Shixing consciously walked half a body behind Lu Bai to guide Lu Bai, keeping his posture very low.

After entering the private room, Master Shen invited Lu Bai to be the host.

"Hey, I don't want it anymore, I'm a guest." Lu Bai hastily declined.

"Lord Lu, when you first came to the capital, I wanted to invite you, but unfortunately I never had the chance, and now I'm still negligent. Today I must take the lead." Shen Shixing insisted.

Shen Yan said beside him: "Master Hou, the guests are as you please, you can sit in the main seat."

Lu Bai didn't refuse, and sat on the main seat.

He knew that if he took the main position this time, he would have to sit on the main position forever in the future.

After entering the table, Shen Yan served two jars of wine first, "These two jars of wine are very good. It is Shaoxing rice wine. It has been stored in the cellar for many years since my grandfather. Lord Marquis’s light, let’s have a good taste.”

It's just that this wine has to be mixed and asked, so that it can taste good.

Then, they chatted about the style and climate of Lin'an and Shaoxing with the wine, and then they turned to the topic of the Shen family's operation in Kuaiji County covering Shaoxing, Lin'an and other places for many years.

Shen Shixing is almost like a salesman, describing the foundation of the Shen family in Kuaiji County.

"Although Kuaiji County has been infested by pirates, under the management of our Shen family, it has been relatively prosperous these years, especially silkworms and silk, which are absolutely the best in the world. The high-ranking officials and nobles are also in love with the silk from our Shen Jiameiji cloth shop." Shen Shixing said not without complacency.

Lu Bai nodded.

As for the intrusion of pirates, it is almost a common occurrence. Gein has many small islands overseas, some of which are inhabited by people, and some islands have practitioners who have established themselves as island owners. These islands often disobey the king and invade Land near the sea.

The guard post set up by Jin Yiwei in Kuaiji County is to guard against these pirates for a large part.

Then, Shen Shixing mentioned the members of the Shen family who held city lords or official positions outside.

Most of these people are also in Kuaiji County.

Under the control of these Shen family city lords, magistrates, and magistrates, they firmly grasped the basic situation of Kuaiji County.

Lu Bai nodded slowly, the Shen family still had some background.

Speaking of this, after three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, what Shen Shixing said is almost the same, but seeing that Lu Bai is still in deep thought, he simply made his words clear, "Although our Shen family is managing the family and serving as an official He has made a lot of achievements in the field, and he can barely say a few words in the court, but in practice, there has been no talent."

He cupped his hands with a smile: "In the future, I hope that Master Lu will support and cultivate him a lot."
