How I Became the Emperor - Chapter 176

[176. Chapter 176 Son-in-law comes to visit]

“May I ask Mr. Gao his name?”

A guard in green armor stood on the steps and asked with his hands raised.

Seeing that Lu Qian was very generous and held the reins of Sima Lin’s horse, he naturally did not dare to neglect him.

Lu Qian looked solemn and cupped his hands: “Lu Qian, the fourth-rank chief arrester of the Zhenfu Division, has come to pay his respects.”

Oh.

As soon as these words came out, the guards at the door widened their eyes and looked at him in shock.

“Go and report to the general!”

The green-armored guard came to his senses, turned around and gave an order. As soon as he waved, a guard came down immediately, respectfully handed over to Lu Gan, and took the horse rope from Lu Gan.

“Master Lu, please.”

“Okay!”

Lu Gan nodded and walked into Fang Mansion with the green-armored guards.

Soon, he was taken to the main hall, and a maid immediately came up and served Lu Qian fragrant tea and fruits.

Before leaving, he glanced at Lu Qian with great curiosity.

After waiting for less than half a cup of tea, a voice full of energy and as powerful as a bell came from outside: “Haha, Mr. Lu is here in a big way. Our house is so bright!”

Following the voice, a white man came. An old man with long hair and green clothes walked in with tiger steps, cupped his hands at Lu Qian and smiled.

This person is the great-grandfather of the Fang family, Fang Tianlao.

“General Fang, you’re too polite. I am a junior and cannot be called ‘sir’ by the general.”

Lu Gan stood up and bowed solemnly.

“Haha, I am just an old man who is idle at home now. I have no official position and no position. When I see the Chief of the Zhenfu Division arresting the head, I naturally have to call him “Sir”. Mr. Lu, please sit down, please sit down.”

Mr. Fang Tianlao took his seat and was deeply moved. He looked at Lu Gan and praised: “Master Lu is young and promising. He became the fourth-grade chief arrester at the age of nineteen. When I saw him today, he was indeed well-deserved! He is full of energy! He really is a hero from a young age!”

“General Fang has given you the award. .”

Lu Qiangong cupped his hands and sat down with a calm smile.

Fang Tianlao laughed and asked after greetings: “Master Lu just arrived yesterday, right? Do you feel good?”

“Not good.”

Lu Qian said two words very calmly.

“Uh… Mr. Lu is really quick to talk. I wonder why Mr. Lu came to visit so early?”

Fang Tian was stunned for a moment and asked straight to the point.

“There are three main things.”

Lu Qian put the three boxes of thousand-year-old ginseng in his arms on the table next to him: “The first thing is to thank Miss Fang for saving her life. These are three boxes of thousand-year-old ginseng, just a small gift. I hope Miss Fang won’t take it personally. “

“Haha, Youxue has always been informal. Master Lu is willing to thank you, so she won’t take it personally.”

Fang Tianlao nodded to the maid next to him.

The maid came over, bowed to Lu Gan, and took away the three boxes of thousand-year-old ginseng on the table.

“This second thing… I’m here to return the Meteor Sword.”

Lu Gan took off the sword from his waist and placed it gently on the table, without any hesitation.

This made Fang Tianlao stunned for a moment.

He raised his hand, with five fingers like claws, and shot the Meteor Sword out of the air. Then he unsheathed the sword, and a clear sword clang echoed in the hall.

“It’s the Meteor Sword.”

Fang Tianlao sheathed the sword and turned to look at Lu Qian: “Master Lu is a cheerful man! I admire you! Then, I dare to ask the third thing…”

“Borrowing someone!”

Lu Qian said with an expression. He solemnly raised his hands slightly and said: “I heard that the Fang family is engaged in the escort business. It is very famous and spread all over Qingzhou. There are tens of thousands of escorts. By chance, our Zhenfu Division is short of people, so I came here to borrow one from Mr. Fang Tianlao. A few bodyguards will temporarily act as agents of our Zhenfu Division.”

Upon hearing his words, Fang Tianlao picked up his teacup and sipped it while pondering.

After a moment, he put down the tea cup and nodded with a smile: “I have agreed to this. I wonder how many people Mr. Lu wants to borrow?”

“Not many.” Lu Qian breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: “Just three thousand people.”

puff.

Fang Tianlao squirted out a mouthful of hot tea, his eyes widened, and he asked in disbelief: “How much?”

Lu Qian raised three fingers and spit out two words: “Three thousand.”

“…”

Fang Tianlao was speechless for a while. He took the handkerchief handed by the maid, wiped his mouth, his expression returned to normal, frowned and asked: “Did Mr. Lu make a mistake? I agreed to these thirty people on the spot. I can borrow three hundred people even if I bite my tongue. Give it to Mr. Lu. But I can’t do anything with these three thousand people. Without these three thousand people, the Fang family’s escort agency will probably collapse.”

“Then…a thousand people?” Lu Qian raised his eyebrows and took a step back. .

“Not even a thousand people. I can only borrow three hundred people at most. Among these three hundred people, I can only give you thirty Gang Qi realms at most.”

Fang Tianlao shook his head with a firm attitude.

This should be his bottom line.

When Lu Qian heard this, he couldn’t help but frown.

Compared with the tens of millions of people in the county, these three hundred people are nothing more than a drop in the bucket, and it is impossible to keep busy.

“Master Lu, if you have nothing else to do, just follow my escort to fetch the guests.”

At this time, Fang Tianlao picked up the teacup and prepared to see off the guests.

Lu Gan raised his head when he heard this, his eyes sharp: “I have a plan that can increase the business of the Fang Family Escort Agency ten or a hundred times more than it is now. I wonder if General Fang is interested?”

“Oh?”

Fang Tianlao’s eyes suddenly lit up, but he seemed to have thought of it. What? He shook his head repeatedly: “To be honest, I admire you very much, Mr. Lu. But your memorial and the grace order are too overbearing and scary! I don’t want to get between you and the King of Qingzhou. The Fang family will always be loyal to Your Majesty. So, no matter how interested I am, I can only say that I am not interested.”

“That’s it.”

Lu Gan nodded, suddenly realizing.

It was because he had fought so fiercely with Zhao Li, the crown prince of Qingzhou, that now the Fang family did not dare to get too close to him, lest he be accidentally injured by Zhao Li’s revenge.

“Then, I’ll take my leave first!”

Lu Gan stood up, cupped his hands, and prepared to leave.

“Okay! I’ll send Master Lu off!”

Seeing this, Fang Tianlao stood up with a smile and was about to send Lu Qian out.

At this moment, a man and a woman walked into the hall. The man was beautiful and the woman was gentle and dignified. They were both wearing white shirts.

As soon as the two came in, their eyes fell on Lu Qian first, looking up and down, and exchanging glances.

A little weird!

When Fang Tianlao saw this, he was slightly surprised and introduced: “Xi’er, Yun Xi, this is the newly appointed chief arrester of the Zhenfu Division, Mr. Lu Qianlu.”

“I have met Mr. Lu.”

This man The girls all went to worship together.

“You’re welcome.”

Lu Gan returned the greeting with his hands raised. Seeing that the two of them looked like Fang Youxue and Fang Yun’s siblings, he couldn’t help but ask, “Are you two the parents of Miss Fang?”

“Exactly.”

The handsome middle-aged man The man smiled and nodded.

Beside him, the more the dignified and beautiful woman looked at Lu Qian, the brighter her eyes became, and the smile on the corner of her mouth seemed to contain something else.

It made Lu Qian feel a little creepy.

“Master Lu, please wait a moment.”

The dignified and beautiful woman nodded slightly and said softly.

Then, the two of them pulled Fang Tianlao, who was frowning slightly, out of the hall. After about a cup of tea, the three of them walked back.

Fang Tianlao looked at Lu Qian with a strange expression.

“I have kept Mr. Lu waiting for a long time. Please take a seat. I have been short of money recently and suddenly became interested in what Mr. Lu just said. Please!”

Fang Tianlao cupped his hands slightly and said with a forced smile.

What happened?

Lu Qian was surprised, but he still cupped his hands and sat back down.

Fang Youxue’s father and mother were sitting opposite him, looking at him with smiles, and the couple would make eye contact from time to time.

“Master Lu, just now you said that you can make the business of our Fang Family Escort Agency ten times or a hundred times better. I wonder if you have any tips?”

At this time, Fang Tianlao asked with a serious look on his face.

As soon as these words came out, Fang Youxue’s father and mother were slightly startled, with surprise in their eyes.

The Fang family’s escort agency has traveled all over the country and can be regarded as one of the largest escort agencies in Qingyang County. How can the business be ten times or a hundred times better?

Under the gaze of the three people, Lu Qian thought about it and said solemnly: “I am going to implement the ‘Hundred Business Grade Rating’.”

“Hundred Business Grade Rating?”

Fang Tian and the other three were all stunned, not knowing why.

“To put it simply, it means that all walks of life, large and small merchants and shops in Qingyang County will be graded uniformly.”

Lu Qian explained.

“Then what?”

“Then, take the top ten merchants and shops in each industry, compile a “Qingyang County Living and Travel Guide”, and sell it to all the merchants and people who come in and out of the county in the past.”

When he heard this, Fang Tian The three old people were still a little confused and confused.

But as they thought about it more deeply, the eyes of the three people gradually became brighter and they were shocked.

This is to use the reputation and credibility of the Zhenfu Division as an endorsement and forcefully advertise!

Nowadays, businessmen from other places are afraid of staying in illegal shops and being cheated. If you accidentally check into a shady store, you’ll be defrauded of a little money, and maybe even be made into barbecued pork buns.

Very dangerous!

As soon as this Qingyang County living and traveling guide is published, foreign businessmen will definitely choose the merchants and shops in the guide to stay and do business.

The business of the Fang Family Escort Agency might actually be ten times or a hundred times better!

In an instant, Fang Tianlao, Fang Youxue’s father and mother’s eyes sparkled.

Seeing this, Lu Qian nodded secretly in his heart.

This wave is stable!
