cannon fodder

When Lu Tao came back after sending the doctor away, he learned the good news that Feng Jin had woken up, and he let go of the big stone that was pressing on his heart.

"My lord, who is it that lied to you to go to the Xijiao Tavern this time?"

Hearing Lu Tao's words, Feng Jin really couldn't answer, not because he didn't believe this person, but because he didn't want Lu Tao to get involved in this trouble, so he didn't answer and asked instead: "It should be important for you to find me today. Let's get things done! It's getting late now, let's talk about business first."

After Lu Tao heard this, of course he would not ask any more stupid questions, but when he said that, Lu Tao had a hesitant look on his face. After all, it was not a trivial matter, and he was really embarrassed to say it.

Seeing Lu Tao's hesitation, Feng Jin said with a smile: "If you have anything to say, just say it! I don't have much time to come out!"

After hearing this, Lu Tao looked at Feng Jin's face again, gritted his teeth and said, "My lord, we hope to work under your command."

The reason why Lu Tao was embarrassed to say it was because this "we" has a family of one hundred and eight!And the meaning in those words is equivalent to asking Feng Jin to raise one hundred and eight mouths, which is really not a small number!But Lu Tao also had his own considerations for saying this. Mr. Feng once said to himself that he just wanted to do some business, and he was able to buy Xijiao Mill immediately. It must be not small, not to mention the lack of manpower.What he was worried about was that Mr. Feng looked down on their labor force. After all, all of them were sallow and thin, and if ordinary people wanted to hire those strong men, this was one of the reasons why these people were so downcast before.

After hearing this, Feng Jin's expression remained the same, but she said calmly, "Is there anything else you want to tell me?"

When Lu Tao heard this, he thought of something, and secretly scolded himself for being too anxious, and actually forgot to say it: "My lord, it was Lu Tao who was in a hurry. Our Lu family was a petty official in the imperial capital three generations ago. , but later the family had no official career, so my grandfather took the family business to Suicheng, where he became a ceramics merchant, and his business was prosperous, and he was well-known in Suicheng, but this drought, The situation of the common people is really miserable, even though my father gave away all his wealth to help, but he couldn’t support him for long, and afterward he had no hope of resisting, so he had to bring people who had defected to the Lu family to the imperial capital.”

Even if Lu Tao's words are self-reported, it can be regarded as an explanation to Feng Jin, why this group of people has a little respect for the Lu family and his son.

Hearing this, Feng Jin was very satisfied with Lu Tao's "candid meeting", and admired Lu Tao's father even more.He thought he couldn't do the work of dissipating his family's wealth and helping the people, and he sighed in his heart. Feng Jin looked at Lu Tao and said very seriously: "I can hire these people, and I can hire them according to Feng's government regulations. The monthly money of the servants, but I want their absolute loyalty, if even one person betrays me, I will fire everyone, do you understand?"

Lu Tao didn't feel any worries after hearing this, instead he agreed with joy. These people, he stayed after careful observation all the way. The monthly money of the servants in the shop is much higher, so I am very happy.

Now that Feng Jin has accepted these people, the mill doesn't need to look for it anymore, and now everything is complete. After talking with Lu Tao for more than an hour, he got up and left, but took out another 3 taels when he went out. Hand over the banknote to Lu Tao.

"Do everything according to what I just ordered. This is your salary for a year, and you will distribute it to everyone on a monthly basis."

Back in the mansion this time, the two elders of the Feng family never waited nervously at the door like yesterday, but when they saw Feng Jin return to the mansion, the feeling of great relief still made Feng Jin feel a little guilty, after all In the past few days, I have only returned home after dark. As parents, I would be worried, so Feng Jin would make the two elders happy from time to time during the meal, and this is all he can do now.

Because of the fact that he had already slept in the afternoon, when Feng Jin returned to the room, he was still very energetic, so Feng Jin decided to read a book. Suddenly, a headache became more severe. Unable to bear it, she groaned and her face became extremely distorted. After a while of top-heavy, Feng Jin couldn't bear it anymore and fell into the darkness...

I don't know how long it took, Feng Jin finally regained a little consciousness, but at this moment he would rather stay in the dark all the time! That way he wouldn't have to suffer so much!The world is spinning crazily, the sky is shrouded in blood, no!That's not blood, it's bloodthirsty flames, the limbs seem to be burning violently, it hurts!Feng Jin's eyes were bloodshot, her whole head was about to explode!ah……

No!What a pain!Li Luo, come and save me! ... Li Luo?Feng Jin smiled wryly in his heart, but the pain could only make his expression more distorted and hideous!He even said he would save him!Ah…

Feng Jin suddenly felt a flash of light in his mind, what was slowly approaching in the haze, getting bigger and bigger?It's getting brighter and brighter!It seemed to be a bunch of white clouds, Feng Jin only felt the pain in her body eased, she instinctively jumped on it, and then grabbed the white clouds and bit them, Feng Jin felt so comfortable that tears were about to flow out, in fact It was just an illusion that the pain was slowly disappearing. Right now, Feng Jin only had one thought in her mind, to eat Bai Yun!

What Feng Jin didn't know was that just as he kept gnawing on the white clouds, his body was constantly emitting a holy white light.

I just don't know if this phenomenon is good or bad!

A gust of cool wind blew by, Feng Jin shuddered, and quickly stopped gnawing.

Why am I so confused, I don't know what this thing is!It would be terrible if there were any side effects after eating it!

At this moment, some information rushed into her mind. According to the instructions, Feng Jin sat cross-legged, closed her eyes, sank into the sea of ​​thoughts, and carefully realized something. She rotated her hands and made a lotus palm print. Together, a circle of things like a magic circle spreads continuously with Feng Jin as the center. This feeling is really wonderful, as long as everything in the magic circle is clearly displayed in the mind.

But before Feng Jin could feel happy, he suddenly saw a scene that made his whole body icy cold - not far from the house, there was a person standing abruptly, this person was in his sixties, tall and thin, with a head With white hair shawls and a ferocious face, showing an expression of frustration and excitement, he looked extremely terrifying. This person was covering his chest with one hand, and holding a stone lamp in the other. Weird light smoke was emitting from the stone lamp.

"I just said that this little boy is very weird. Last time I saw him cast the soul-absorbing* of Ghost Yinmen. Today, I wanted to use the bloodthirsty flame to test his depth, but I didn't expect to be caught by this little boy. Hmph... "

It is estimated that this person feels that his concealment skills are very good, so he said it without any scruples!

The light smoke on the stone lamp trembled violently, a vicious face was looming, and then there was a sinister and strange laughter from the stone lamp.

"You are really becoming more and more useless now. This doll doesn't even have a single layer of skills. It's ridiculous that you were hurt by this person's hands."

what is that!It's a man or a ghost! !He didn't know these two people, why did they appear in Fengfu!

When Feng Jin saw this, no matter how calm she was, her spine felt chills, her hair stood on end, and her heart was trembling with fear!Although his face remained expressionless, his hands hidden in his sleeves trembled slightly.
