Songjiang Prefecture, Huating County.

Unlike the original time and space, Songjiang Prefecture in this world has not experienced too many Japanese disasters. Compared with Jiaxing, Shaoxing and Taizhou, life is much better.

But in fact, life is not easy.

Lu Bin, who had no expression, gently pulled the reins, and the horse under his crotch slowed down. He turned to look at the large area of ​​fertile fields, lush mulberry forests, hard-working tenants... These were all taken into his arms by the Xu family in just a few months.

I remember that it was in Jiaxing Mansion in the 35th year of Jiajing. I had talked to Qian Yuan. He said that the Xu Mansion was even more greedy than Donglou. At that time, he was still half-believing and half-doubted. Now it seems...

Yes, since he met in Jiading City in the 32nd year of Jiajing, he has not missed it. He said that Qi Yuanjing must be a famous general for a while, and he said that those who commanded the great cause of anti-Japanese wars must be Hu Jixi...

When Lu Bin thought of that person, he felt sad. He had been standing side by side several times and joined hands several times. The friendships he had formed during the war years dissipated with the wind as he made his choices.

Although his father was released from prison, he returned home angrily and refused to take the land of Songjiang. Lu Bin didn't know whether his choice was right or wrong...

Will he hate me?

I guess it will.

Lu Bin's face was like a dead tree. When he heard the shouts of his close friends beside him, he suddenly realized that he had arrived at the city gate. He turned over and dismounted, threw away the reins, and walked into the city. He was still wandering in his mind.

Qi Jiguang, Qi Jimei, Hou Jigao, Zhang Yuanxun, Ge Hao, Yang Wen, Zhang Yishan... They are all different from them.

In the great victory of Jiading, he could have fled, but chose to leave the city with a gun and make himself famous overnight.

During the Jiaxing War, his father was defeated and the Lu family became famous. He led his victory after victory and protected the Lu family.

In terms of feelings, origins, and kindness, I should be the closest person to him.

Yu Zhifu and Qi Yuanjing went south one after another, and he was the one with the highest status among the Southeast military generals he placed.

He has always been sincere to his friends and cruel to his enemies, but he has not attacked me...

If you do something, even if I am dismissed from office and imprisonment, I will feel better, but you just turn a blind eye to it...

"The official visits Mr. Xu Qi."

"Wait."

Lu Bin lowered his head, and his companion next to him rushed over and stuffed two door bags. The doorman looked a little relaxed and said carelessly: "Everyone keep a little bit of a god. Yesterday, Master Qi lost his temper and was pulled out to beat the boards."

After a while, Lu Bin was introduced into the mansion by his servants. He was still at the gate of the courtyard and heard sharp scolding inside.

"Dong Yikuina said it nicely. Pay the tax and report to go to sea. Now!"

"And the Lu family's son, without his father, can he sit as General Wusong?"

Lu Bin stood at the gate of the yard and listened, with no expression on his face. The person inside was Xu Ying, the second son of Xu Jie who was driven back to his hometown two months ago.

Two brothers Xu Jie and one younger brother. Now he and Xu She have been in office. The two brothers stay in their hometown and have more than ten descendants.

More than ten years ago, the Xu family of Huating was already arrogant enough, but when Xu Ying, who was born in Beijing, appeared for the first time, the people in Songjiang, knew what the real arrogant people mean.

In just two months, Xu Ying embezzled fertile land in Songjiang Prefecture, and more than 100,000 mu of mulberry forests, forcibly expelled residents around Xu's mansion, built large-scale construction, demolished houses and rebuilt houses, and caused four or five lives lawsuits. From the prefect of Songjiang Prefecture, to the prefect of Huating County, everyone was in a panic.

Such people who are more greedy and have no bottom line than Yan Shifan will naturally not ignore the huge profits brought by sea trade.

Dong Yikui still wanted to cleanse himself up, so he used various means to persuade the Xu family to go overseas to do business through normal channels, and even took over the tax payment bank. Xu Ying nodded.

Although he has only been back to Songjiang for two months, although he is a junior, he has two uncles and six brothers, but as the son of the chief minister of the cabinet, Xu Ying is now talking about the Xu family in Huating.

However, Xu Ying didn't really look at the ships that were originally smuggled. If you want to do it, you have to do it bigger. There are many rivers and seas in the southeast, but there are not so many large ships that can withstand huge waves on the sea. Therefore, he set his mind on Wusong General Lu Bin.

At that time, Lu Bin led his army to defend Dinghai and wiped out the Japanese pirates. There were already many sea boats under his command. Later, Qian Yuan planned to build a shipyard, mainly supplying Ge Hao, who was the commander of Taizhou at the time, but some were all allocated to Lu Bin. These ships were taken to Songjiang by Lu Bin.

So, Lu Bin really couldn't quite understand why Xu Ying scolded him sharply, "If you want a boat, I will give it to you too. If you want a guard, I will give it to you too. What else should I do?"

The warships were destroyed and the soldiers were exhausted. I don’t know how to explain them yet. What are you scolding me?

But after a moment, Lu Bin understood.

"When my father recruited him, Wang Zhi was so eager to refuse the Qian family. What is the relationship between Qian Zhancai and Wang Zhi?"

"Whenever you go to sea, you have to be the banner of Wang Zhi Wufeng. Wang Zhi is the leader of Japanese pirates. What does it cost to kill people and rob goods at sea?"

"You believe it because Qian Zhan was not instructed?"

"There are nearly forty large ships, but the only ones who were damaged in the end were my Xu family, and the other families were completely unscathed!"

Lu Bin lowered his head speechlessly. This was too nonsense. The person in front of him was too easy to deceive. The manager of the Xu family regarded this person as a fool.

If Wang Zhi often kills people and robs, will the Southeast Sea Trade be so prosperous?

The other ships were unscathed. Could it be that they all fled because they were all throwing goods?

Only your Xu Mansion fleet is damaged... If the soldiers I sent forcibly throw away the goods, I am afraid that even a ship would not be able to come back!

However, Lu Bin also knew why the other party was so angry. He had smuggled so many times before but nothing happened. But Xu Ying took over and had an accident. Moreover, Xu Ying's third cousin was dead...

"Waste, waste!"

"If I had known, I would have let you die in Zhao Prison. What I am doing is a waste, and my son is also a waste!"

"I have heard that you, Lu Bin, was Qian Zhancai's man back then, so you want to change your family again?"

"Is Suiyuan willing to accept you?!"

There is no doubt that Xu Ying threw this responsibility on Lu Bin, or on Qian Yuan.

It’s not my fault, it was Qian Yuan’s instruction!

It was Qian Yuan instructing Wang Zhi to kill and rob at sea!

And Qian Yuan also has an inner supporter!

who?

Of course it was Lu Bin.

Lu Bin, who finally understood, suddenly smiled. His white teeth made Xu Ying stop talking, and he couldn't help but take a step back.

It was unconscious to take a step back, but after realizing his timidity, Xu Ying was even more furious. In his opinion, Lu Bin was a lackey under the Xu family and dared to bare his teeth at the master!

But before Xu Ying could scold him, Lu Bin had already turned around and strode out of the yard.

After rushing to the horse out of the city and running wildly on the official road for a while, Lu Bin slowed down his horse and suddenly said to his side and left and right, "If I resign and return home, will my father be happy or sad?"

"Young Master..."

Lu Bin didn't care if he didn't get an answer, but after thinking about it, he felt that this was a good idea.

The Lu family is a thousand families with the Wei family in Chuzhou. Now only Lu Bin has served as an official. He is just over 30 years old and is already the general of Wusong.

My father was dismissed from office and returned home. My elder brother followed the Qianhu of Chuzhou, and my second brother was in charge of common affairs... I didn't want to be reluctant to return home, at least I wouldn't be involved in those bullshit things anymore.

Moreover, after his father was released from prison, he only met in Suzhou and denounced himself for betraying his faith and forgetting his righteousness. If he resigned, his father might even agree.
