A few days later, Yang Yu hosted a banquet for Li Xun.

When they arrived at the place, Li Xun discovered that besides Yang Yu, there were more than a dozen people at the scene. These people had never been seen by Li Xun before and were very unfamiliar.

Regarding Li Xun's arrival, Yang Yu just stood up, nodded, and said hello with a smile, while the others seemed very enthusiastic and stepped forward to pull Li Xun and greet him with a smile.

"Captain Li, we have been friends with you for a long time. It is an honor for us to meet you today."

"Yes, yes, Governor Li can come, it really gives us face."

The crowd was very enthusiastic, and Li Xun was also smiling, greeting them politely, and laughing.

Li Xun sat down with Yang Yu, who was the only acquaintance here.

Afterwards, Li Xun looked around. The facilities were luxurious and the groundwork was noble. He had been in Wu'an City for more than a year. There were not many restaurants in the city that he had not been to. However, such a high-end place was a bit...

No impression at all.

"This place is very nice. I have been in Wu'an City for more than a year, but I have never heard of such a place."

A tall and thin man in his forties with a black mole on his eyebrow said with a smile: "Doctor Li doesn't know something. This restaurant was built less than half a month ago, and the name and signboard are all there."

It hasn’t been hung up yet.”

Yang Yu whispered from the side: "This man's name is Cheng Bao, and he is the second steward of King Zhao Antong of Ji."

Li Xun smiled and nodded: "So that's it. I mean, Wu'an City is my territory. How could I not know about any good places in the city?"

"I was negligent in this matter and did not notify Governor Li in time. I shall be punished with three cups of wine."

Cheng Bao laughed loudly, drank three glasses of wine in a row, and then said to Li Xun: "If Governor Li likes this place, he can come here often in the future, and all expenses will be borne by me."

"You're too polite. It's not polite to return a favor without reciprocating. I'll toast you three times."

Li Xun also smiled and drank three glasses of wine in a row. Everyone present immediately cheered, and the atmosphere was instantly lifted.

At this time, Cheng Bao clapped his hands, and the door was opened. Dozens of scantily clad beauties walked into the room one by one. The leaders of them, the two most beautiful women, came directly to Li Xun and sat down on both sides.

Smiling charmingly, she took Li Xun's arm and poured him wine.

Yang Yu hugged a woman and chuckled: "Beautiful lady and fine wine, Governor Li must enjoy them."

Li Xun opened his arms widely and stretched out his arms. The two beauties of the host laughed loudly and said: "That's natural. How can I sit still in such a situation?"

As these beauties entered, the atmosphere at the scene was heightened.

Everyone was drinking and talking. During the banquet, everyone was very enthusiastic towards Li Xun, especially Cheng Bao, who had the most enthusiastic attitude, kept saying good things, and greeted everyone with a smile. He must ask for something. How could Li Xun not understand this?

After three rounds of drinking, this meal lasted for two hours. After drinking until the end, maybe the beauty was pregnant again. Li Xun was not drunk, but his heart was a little drunk.

Everyone dispersed one by one, Cheng Bao asked Li Xun to stay. The former obviously had something to say to him alone.

Yang Yu, Cheng Bao and Li Xun were the only three people left in the room.

Cheng Bao entertained him so warmly tonight, and he must have some intention. Li Xun had already figured this out, and now there were only three of them left. After Li Xun made some inquiries, he found out Cheng Bao's intention. It turned out that

, this man came to Wuzhou to look for business opportunities on the orders of his master Ji Wang Zhao Antong.

Cheng Bao is different from others. He values ​​quality rather than quantity. He does what he does best. He just bought two shops in Wu'an City. One shop opened this extremely luxurious restaurant, and the other shop is ready to open.

The bank is connected with Fengjing's bank, which can save businessmen a lot of trouble. I have to say that Cheng Bao is indeed very business-minded.

Cheng Bao stayed in Wuzhou for several months, and his main focus was on these two things. However, the King of Ji, Zhao Antong, sent him here for another purpose, which was to enclose the land. If this task was not completed, even if it was done well,

Well, if you go back, you will definitely be punished by Ji Wang Zhao Antong. Therefore, although Cheng Bao is a little dissatisfied with the matter of land enclosure, there is no way. Ji Wang Zhao Antong is an old-fashioned thinker. In his opinion, nothing can be preserved by land.

No matter how much money you have, it will eventually run out, but land can be passed down from generation to generation.

Cheng Bao sent people to look around, and finally focused on a piece of land, which was close to the Liangshui River ferry. There were about a thousand slopes, all of which were farmland. However, this land belonged to the Wuzhou Governor's Mansion and was a military field. Cheng Bao looked for it.

I contacted several officials of the Dudu Mansion and made some inquiries. I learned that these lands had been demarcated by Li Xun more than half a year ago and were directly included in the Dudu Mansion. They would be used to reward meritorious soldiers in the future. Without Li Xun's nod of approval,

, no one can take it away.

Cheng Bao then approached Yang Yu and asked him to invite Li Xun, hoping to win over this land.

Li Xun squinted and looked at Cheng Bao. This man did have some insight. That piece of land was close to the Liangshui River. In the future, with the continuous expansion of trade, the Liangshui River ferry would probably not be enough. At that time, the crossing ferry would be

It is very likely that it will expand. Since the land is the crossing of the Liangshui River, it is very likely to be included in this list. By that time, its geographical location will be extraordinary, and its income will be extremely huge.

"You said that land is in my hands and has not been divided yet. Why, do you want it?"

Cheng Bao was stunned. He didn't expect Li Xun to say so straightforwardly, but he could only follow his words and said: "Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from Governor Li. Yes, I really want that land. The Prince of Ji Zhao Antong sent

I came to Wuzhou just to buy some land, and I hope Governor Li can help me."

Cheng Bao plays the signature of Ji Wang Zhao Antong.

Li Xun chuckled and said, "That's more than 100,000 acres of land, so it's not cheap."

Cheng Bao stood up and came to Li Xun's desk, took out three silver notes from his arms, put them on the table, and whispered: "This is three hundred thousand taels, please ask Governor Li to fulfill it."

Li Xun glanced at the banknotes on the table, but secretly sneered in his heart. The fields were divided into upper, middle and lower fields. The thousand-tilt land, close to the Mulang River, was a good land in the upper field. Even in a disaster year, he could still have something.

A certain harvest, the market price, is not less than two per acre, but this person sells it for three hundred thousand taels. It looks very generous, but in fact, he wants to sell this land to him at a cabbage price.

Leopard's intention is also very obvious, which is to bribe himself and give him the land. The three hundred thousand taels of silver will be his own.

Li Xun thought for a moment, nodded with a smile, and collected the banknotes.

Seeing Li Xun accept the banknote, Cheng Bao was overjoyed and said repeatedly: "Thank you very much, Governor Li, for this. I am very grateful. I will definitely repay you in the future."

Li Xun waved his hand, laughed and said, "We'll talk about the future later. I'm drunk, so I'll go home first."

After saying that, Li Xun stood up and staggered out of the room.

Looking at Li Xun's leaving figure, Cheng Bao smiled lowly at Yang Yu and said: "Master Yang, how can there be people in the world who are not greedy for money? It's just a matter of the price. You also said that Li Xun is not easy to fool. It seems that

You are mistaken."

"maybe."
