Seeing that everything was going smoothly in the iron smelting plant, Lu Yao felt relieved. Although the income from this iron smelting plant may not be as good as his other industries, in Lu Yao's opinion, this iron smelting plant will definitely be of great use in the future.
Speaking of the previous agreement with Zhe Kexing, Lu Yao always kept it in mind, so after the iron smelting plant got on the right track, he immediately ordered people to forge a sword.
Speaking of which, Lu Yao is actually an avid fan of martial arts novels in real life, especially Mr. Jin Yong's novels. He yearns for the world of pleasure and revenge described in the novels.
Lu Yao actually saw a hint of chivalry in Zhe Kexing's sword-wielding posture and eyes that day, which is why Lu Yao immediately agreed with Zhe Kexing to forge a sword for him.
As for myself, although Lu Yao's status is no longer the same as before, and he usually travels with many guards, it is also very necessary to forge a weapon for himself. As for the type of weapon, a knife,
Lu Yao had already thought of this.
There is a golden dragon tattooed on the handle and blade of the sword, which looks particularly dazzling.
After the weapons were cast, Lu Yao took them from the workers and was really shocked. This was naturally not because of the appearance of the two weapons, but because of their weight.
This was the first time Lu Yao picked up a weapon from the Song Dynasty after traveling through time. He originally wanted to be like his childhood self, holding a sword in his left hand and a sword in his right hand, and swinging it twice in a decent manner, but who knew that it was just a weapon?
, it was already a bit difficult for Lu Yao to swing,
The workers present were all surprised. In their opinion, Boss Lu should be extremely powerful. How could he be sweating profusely after waving his sword a few times?
In order not to look very embarrassed, Lu Yao pretended to be nonchalant and asked his guards to return the sword to his house, pretending to take it seriously.
After returning home, one day passed, and the next day, Lu Yao got up early in the morning, revised a letter himself, and found Tangxi.
"What are your instructions, sir?" Tangxi was a little surprised when he got the letter. In his opinion, Lu Yao was a hands-on person. What would make him write a letter?
Lu Yao could tell Tang Xi's thoughts at a glance, so he said: "Tomorrow is the day that I agreed with Zhe Kexing. Today, you must hand this letter into the hands of Privy Councilor Han Qi, and then ask him to forward it to Zhe Kexing on his behalf."
Ke Xing."
Tang Xi nodded, although he was a little confused as to why Lu Yao didn't come to deliver the letter in person, but he didn't feel like asking more questions, so he left on his journey.
Lu Yao had his own calculations in his heart. When Zhe Ke broke his sword, Han Qi left a bad impression on him. Lu Yao always felt that this guy was targeting him, but he didn't know that Lu Yao in Han Qi's eyes
Yao is an ignorant little gangster, that's why he treats Lu Yao so unkindly.
Although his official position is not high, Lu Yao knows that as a general, Zhe Kexing cannot leave his post unless he has something to do. However, with his current status and the fact that he had promised in front of the officials at that time, he would come out and be with him.
It shouldn't be difficult to meet up.
Zhe Kexing, Lu Yao only had some impression of this name, but couldn't remember it for a while. He took out his mobile phone and then remembered that his mobile phone had lost its signal since he arrived here. This kind of people just ask questions when something is unclear.
You should really give up the habit of Baidu in the future. Lu Yao couldn't help but smile, shook his head, took out a pen and paper, and continued to copy Dream of Red Mansions. According to different progress, he copied two copies and asked two people in the house to
The servants were sent to the "newspaper office" he founded and to the Han Mansion respectively according to the progress. His unmarried daughter-in-law was still waiting to read the latest chapter.
After copying the Red Mansion, it was already evening. Seeing that Tang Xi had not come back yet, Lu Yao knew that he was a very cautious person and must be waiting for the result at Han Qi's place, so he went out and went to the restaurant to explain.
"Where are you going? It's almost dinner time." Father Lu Xu asked as his son was about to go out.
Lu Yao smiled bitterly in his heart. Although he was wealthy and prominent in the eyes of outsiders, at home, his cooking skills could be said to be unrivaled. This led to the fact that since the Chinese New Year, whenever Lu Yao was free at home, he would
He basically takes care of all the meals at home.
Lu Yao smiled and said, "There's something going on at the restaurant today. I'll go there. I'll be back in less than half an hour."
When Lu Xu heard that he was going to a restaurant, he said, "Go and come back quickly. The whole family is waiting for you to cook. Remember to bring two jugs of wine back."
Lu Yao responded and left home.
When he arrived at the restaurant, Lu Yao found the butler and told him that a distinguished guest was coming tomorrow and asked him to vacate the entire private room on the second floor. Seeing that Lu Yao was very serious, the butler only thought that a distinguished guest was coming tomorrow, so
He immediately said that he would prepare a chef to be responsible for Lu Yao and the others' meals. Lu Yao said that he would set aside a stove and cook himself, and told the housekeeper all the ingredients to be prepared. l
After explaining these things and going home, Tangxi had also returned, indicating that Zhe Kexing had agreed to the invitation to meet at the restaurant tomorrow. Lu Yao nodded with satisfaction.
"It's a bit boring just the two of us drinking, but the Soviet-style brothers... let's forget it. Scholars encounter soldiers to avoid embarrassment."
Lu Yao thought so and fell asleep, but he decided in his heart that he would ask about Nazhe Kexing's background tomorrow.
The next day, when the agreed date with Zhe Kexing arrived, Lu Yao came to Jiuzhongxian an hour before the agreed time and started preparing meals.
Most of the people in the army like to drink wine and eat meat, so Lu Yao made a braised pork dish and a sauced beef dish. As for the wine, it was natural to pair it with 50% wine.
On the other side, Tangxi also brought the sword that Lu Yao made for Zhe Kexing. Speaking of which, since Tangxi followed Lu Yao, he has never seen him pay so much attention to anyone, but it also made Tangxi very concerned about the origin of Zhe Kexing.
?
The hour had come, and the first floor of the restaurant was already crowded. Tangxi, who was waiting at the door, saw a man who was not very tall enter the restaurant. After asking the waiter, he rushed to the second floor.
It looks very ordinary, Tang Xi thought in his mind.
On Lu Yao's side, seeing Zhe Ke walking into the private room, he quickly stood up to greet him and invited him to take a seat.
At this time, Zhe Kexing had not yet become prominent in terms of official position or ability, so he was still a little unaccustomed to such a polite invitation from Lu Yao. Although Han Qi looked at Lu Yao very much, but what happened that day, Zhe Kexing saw
Come on, Lu Yao is polite to others, but I really don’t believe that he can be a little gangster.
After Zhe Kexing sat down, Lu Yao poured him wine and said, "Brother, try it. This is the 50% wine from the Immortal of Wines. It is most suitable for a generous drinker like the general!"
Zhe Kexing did not hesitate, picked up the wine glass, and drank it all in one gulp. However, unlike other ordinary people's excessive reactions, Zhe Kexing only widened his eyes, and after a few seconds, he shouted: "Good wine!"
"
Later, Zhe Kexing also tasted the dishes made by Lu Yao himself. Compared with the food eaten by a person who has been living in the military life, it is simply the most delicious food in the world. For a while, Kuai Zi couldn't stop. Lu Yao's
Bian was not in a hurry and kept pouring wine and picking up vegetables for Zhe Kexing.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Lu Yao picked up the sword made for Zhe Kexing from behind.
Zhe Kexing took the sword and pulled it out. The golden dragon tattooed on the blade was roaring, and the whole sword seemed to be glowing with golden light.
Zhe Kexing put his fingers on the blade of the sword and walked around it, and then he couldn't help but sigh, "What a sword!"
Lu Yao smiled slightly and said: "The so-called sword given to heroes, this sword was specially made by me for my brother, and it has a very domineering name."
"Oh? What's your name?"
"This sword is called Yitian!"
Zhe Kexing's eyes moved, he looked at the Heavenly Sword in his hand again, put the blade back into the scabbard, and said: "Such a domineering name, but I don't know if I can use this kind of momentum."
Lu Yao laughed loudly and said, "I believe in Brother Zhe. When a man is born in this world, he should hold a three-foot long sword in his hand to achieve unparalleled achievements."
"Well said!" Under the influence of alcohol, Zhe Kexing was impassioned by Lu Yao's words, "But Brother Lu, you gave me such a sharp weapon, I wonder if you have any weapons yourself?"
Lu Yao said: "Of course there is. I have ordered the iron smelting factory to tailor-make a precious sword for me, called Tulong, to form a pair with your Yitian Sword. I will wait for the day when I can hold these two swords with you.
Weapons, galloping on the battlefield!"
"Okay, it's a deal!"
Lu Yao and Zhe Kexing hit it off immediately, and then Lu Yao asked about Zhe Kexing's family background. He didn't know it even if he didn't ask, but he was shocked when he asked.
Lu Yao's previous memory was not wrong. The Zhe family where Zhe Kexing lived was the natal family of Taijun She, the Yang family of the Yang family who he often saw. Compared with the Yang family, this Zhe family could be said to have made greater contributions to the Song Dynasty.
And Zhe Kexing is the great-grandson of Zhe Yuqing. You must know that Zhe Yuqing was the founding general of the Northern Song Dynasty. He was from a wealthy family in Yunzhong. He served Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin back then and led his troops to resist the Khitan many times in the later period. Unfortunately, he was young.
He died young and passed away at the age of thirty-eight. Even before his death, he was still fighting against the Khitan people.
Although he is from a famous family, it is well known that after three generations, a family will inevitably decline. This saying never goes out of style. By now, he is already the fifth generation of the Ori family.
For Lu Yao, who has always had a dream of martial arts, he thinks that being able to meet Zhe Kexing is a great blessing in life. Compared with meeting Su Shi and Ouyang Xiu, Lu Yao prefers to get along with a bloody man like Zhe Kexing.
Lu Yao raised his wine glass, drank two glasses in a row, and said immediately: "Brother Zhe, you and I are so in love with each other, why don't we become brothers with different surnames?"
Zhe Kexing immediately agreed and said, "Okay, if you have a confidant like Brother Lu in your life, what else can I ask for?"
"Heaven above, I am Lu Yao."
"I'll do it."
"I swear here today that we will become brothers with different surnames. We do not wish to be born in the same year, the same month and the same day, but we wish to die in the same year, the same month and the same day!"
