Chapter 149 The Lu family is not afraid of risks and invests in the future
Seeing that his father, Lu Ji, racked his brains and couldn't think of anything else that could compare with Liu Mang, Lu Xun couldn't help but feel pitiful.
Sun Quan was not a fool and knew the importance of the Lu family.
If Lu Xun takes over the Lu family, this is a result that Sun does not want to see.
Suppress Lu Xun, even suppress his talent, until he has to use it, then let him use his strength.
As for Lu Ji, although he was knowledgeable and talented, the so-called astronomical laws were of little use in troubled times!
Sun Quan was not stingy with his kind words, which made Lu Ji feel that with him, the Lu family could be a bright spot.
Little did they know that it was Lu Xun who was carrying a heavy burden for the entire Lu family.
"You are said to be ungrateful, but you still think you are a child prodigy?"
"Jiangdong Lu Ji, you have no shame!"
you……
Lu Ji felt that his brain was deprived of oxygen and his blood pressure soared.
"Bo Yan is now highly regarded by the Marquis of Wu. Why should he go to Jingzhou with you to suffer?"
"Taking it seriously? Even when entering and exiting Bi Yan'er's residence, you will be interrogated and searched, and you will be notified separately?"
Liu Mang smiled and said: "May I ask other staff if they are treated like this? Is this respect? It is clearly to prevent thieves!"
"You're a little kid, you can't even see this problem, so just go play in the mud!"
How could Lu Ji endure it when he saw the thirteen-year-old Liu Mang mocking his sixteen-year-old self?
"Asshole! My Lu family's roots are in Jiangdong, why should I go to Jingzhou?"
"Short-sighted!"
"How presumptuous! Our Lu family now has five hundred members..."
"My pupils are as bright as beans!"
"You...ahem!"
Lu Ji was so angry that he kept coughing, so Lu Xun quickly offered him a glass of water.
"Lu Gongji, let me ask you this! If you stay in Jiangdong, do you want to be Sun Quan's dog?"
"You fart! I will never forget the revenge of killing my father!"
Lu Ji said angrily: "If it weren't for the honor and disgrace of the family, why would I commit myself to serving under the Marquis of Wu?"
Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "Sir, I think Lu Gongji must have endured the humiliation and burden for the sake of being the lintel of the family."
The master and apprentice exchanged glances and decided to start cheating.
"That's a big mistake! In the Lu family, the only ones who can be put on the stage now are you and Boyan!"
Liu Mang pointed at Lu Xun and said with a smile: "It's a pity that someone hides in a honey pot all day long, pours sweet words into his mouth, and forgets all the grudges!"
"The other one was suppressed by Sun Quan and never got the chance to display what he had learned!"
"Lu Gongji, if the Lu family is in your hands, it will really never rise!"
Lu Ji and Lu Xun both valued their family very much. When they heard Liu Mang's words, they couldn't help but look angry.
"How can the Lu family... rise?"
Lu Ji couldn't help but ask, he couldn't care less about Liu Mang's insult just now.
"It's very simple! Learn from Zhuge Shi!"
Liu Mang pointed at Zhuge Liang, who waved his feather fan lightly and made a brilliant appearance.
"Master Lu, I, the Langya Zhuge clan, am originally from Xuzhou!"
"However, Cao Cao captured Xuzhou and had to follow his uncle to seek refuge in Jingzhou."
"Now my brother Zhuge Jin serves as the chief historian under the command of Wu Hou! I serve the lord and his son!"
"As for my brother Zhuge Jun, he will go to Xudu to serve Cao Cao."
What?
After hearing this, Lu Ji couldn't help but said: "Now Cao Cao will fight with you until death!"
Zhuge Liang said calmly: "Yes! But no matter who takes charge of the world in the future, the Zhuge family can continue the bloodline!"
Lu Ji was thoughtful after hearing this.
There is a blood feud between the Lu family and the Sun family. This is an indisputable fact.
Lu Ji recalled that even though he was called a child prodigy, he was still not reused by Sun Quan.
As Liu Mang said, what is needed in troubled times is majestic talents and strategies to calm the world, not just writing books and creating works!
"Those who do not have the courage to take risks will achieve nothing."
Liu Mang smiled and said: "Lu Boyan will become stronger and bigger under my command and have a strong voice. Only then will Sun Quan be able to make Sun Quan turn against the enemy and not dare to touch your Lu family without permission!"
"On the other hand, you, Lu Ji, are timid now! People who are unwilling to invest in the future will not have a future!"
"Running a family is also a business! I think Lu Gongji, you don't know how to invest."
Business?
Lu Ji's mind was very confused. Although he was young, he still cared about the honor and disgrace of his family.
Mr. Lu has already taken on too much!
"Your father, Lu Kang, was willing to resist the tyrant Sun Ce for two years for the sake of the imperial court!"
"What kind of loyalty is this? Who is my father Liu Xuande? A member of the Han Dynasty!"
"After all, we all have the same goal, which is to revive the Han Dynasty!"
Zhuge Liang heard this and called him an expert. Who would have thought that the young master could talk to Lu Kang?
"My father... is definitely a loyal member of the Han Dynasty!"
Lu Ji recalled his father and shed tears unsatisfactorily.
Lu Xun was also full of emotions. The current situation of Lu family being not reused but being feared, I don’t know when it will change!
The young people of the Lu family were depressed and frustrated. He and Lu Ji were just representatives.
There are many more people who will never be appointed as officials by the Marquis of Wu throughout their lives.
"Master Liu Mang?"
"Lu Xuan?"
While several people were talking, Liu Mang met an old acquaintance who was his classmate in Shuijing Academy.
"Cao Cao attacked Jingzhou, and my family called me back!"
Lu Xuan said excitedly: "Young master is willing to hand over the sugar and wine to my Lu family to manage that day. Lu Xuan would like to thank you!"
Lu Ji frowned and said, "Lu Xuan! My Lu family belongs to the Jiangdong noble family, why do we practice this kind of businessman's way!"
Lu Xuan's expression of embarrassment was indeed true. If Liu Mang hadn't opened the door for the Lu family, I'm afraid the Lu family would have to tighten their belts again!
"Head of the family... you and your cousin's salary alone cannot support the entire family!"
"Most of our land has been invaded by Shanyue! Wu Hou is unwilling to send troops to attack!"
"I think he just sat back and watched my Lu family's land being occupied!"
Lu Xuan was unconvinced and said: "What's more, my cousin agreed to do business..."
Lu Xun took the initiative to step forward and said, "Don't blame Congfu...sugar and spirits are business opportunities...Bo Yan saw that Congfu was obsessed with learning, so he didn't bother him!"
Lu Ji frowned and said: "Then... we can't lose the face of the noble family! The Zhang family, the Gu family, and the Zhu family have no dignity, but our Lu family can't be like this!"
"Master! Don't be childish anymore! You don't know how valuable firewood and rice are when you're not a family member! If cousin Boyan hadn't taken care of the family, I'm afraid we would have starved to death in the family!"
Lu Xuan said angrily: "The clothes you wear and the pens you use are all obtained by doing business!"
When Lu Ji heard this, he couldn't help but froze on the spot.
Liu Mang stepped forward, patted his shoulder, and said comfortingly: "You are a sixteen-year-old child who shoulders the heavy responsibility of the entire family. It is indeed difficult for you!"
"Your today depends on your decisions yesterday, and your tomorrow depends on your decisions today!"
"I, Liu Mang, am willing to let you, a talented person from the Lu family, go to Jingzhou to serve as an official! The premise is that I want Lu Boyan to serve as an official in Jingzhou!"
Can all the Lu clan members go to Jingzhou to serve as officials...
"Master! The young master is quite famous in Shuijing Academy!"
Lu Xuan wished he could go to pieces and work for Liu Mang, so he tried his best to persuade him: "Am I going to be suppressed by the Marquis of Wu for the rest of my life because my family is full of Lu family members?"
The hatred of killing my father...the hatred of neglect...
Lu Ji took a deep breath and made a decision.
"Bo Yan, Lu Xuan! You two, go to Jingzhou and open a branch of the Lu family!"
"From now on, what you two do has nothing to do with me, the Lu family of Wu County!"
"The Lu family is not afraid of risks and invests in the future! Come and see off guests!"
