Chapter 56: Take you to meet someone

"Uncle Wu, why are you here? Please sit down quickly!" Li Zhang saw Lu Wu coming in and hurriedly stood up and greeted, but at this time he found that Lu Wu's face was a little gloomy and seemed a little unhappy.

Lu Wu never regarded Li Zhang as an outsider, and here is just like his own family, so he saw him walking to Li Zhang casually and sitting down, then staring at Jinshan and said again: "Why is the Grand Master Jin here? What did you ask me to tell Dalang just now?"

"I... I am here to thank Li Zhang for saving his life. I didn't expect to meet Lu Ban Tou so by chance. Since you are here, I won't disturb your uncle and nephew's reminiscing!" Jinshan was also a slippery person. He found a reason to make excuses, and then prepared to leave.

"Wait a minute, what's going on with saving your life?" Lu Wu was stunned when he heard Jinshan's words. He thought Jinshan was here to ask for debts?

"That's right. A few days ago, when Jinshan came to buy braised pork, he suddenly became ill. I happened to know a little first aid skills and helped a little, so Jinshan came to thank him!" Li Zhang also lied for Jinshan at this time.

"Yes, if it weren't for Li Zhang, my life would have been given. Then what, I'll leave first and say goodbye!" Jinshan also echoed at this time, then bowed and said goodbye. After saying that, he turned around and left. His fat body was so flexible that he left the store in the blink of an eye that he got on the carriage, without giving Lu Wu any chance to leave him.

Looking at Jinshan's back as he left, Lu Wu frowned and said to Li Zhang: "Didn't I say not to get too close to people like Jinshan? If he is unlucky in the future, he may implicate you!"

"Ah? Isn't the people behind Kingsoft quite powerful? I heard that even Ding Xiang would give him some face. How could such a person be unlucky in the future?" Li Zhang was shocked when he heard Lu Wu's words. He was shocked by Kingsoft's background just now, but in a blink of an eye, Lu Wu said that Kingsoft was unlucky, which made him a little bit unable to make a turn.

"Hehe, it's because the person behind him is too close to Ding Wei, and he will be in trouble sooner or later!" Lu Wu sneered. He didn't like Kingsoft, but he couldn't say he was annoying, but he didn't have much affection for the person behind Kingsoft.

Li Zhang was shocked again when he heard this. If it were the past, he might have doubted Lu Wu's words, but through his conversation with Kingsoft just now, he knew that Lu Wu's origin was not simple. Since he said that Kingsoft would be unlucky in the future, it was probably not groundless. It was just that Kingsoft helped him. Although it was called repaying kindness, Li Zhang was still very grateful to him. Do you want to remind him? If Kingsoft is really unlucky in the future, what can he do?

"By the way, what were you talking about with Kingsoft just now? How did I hear him mention my name, and what did you ask me?" At this time, Lu Wu suddenly thought of the words he heard when he came in just now, and asked again.

"It's nothing. Isn't there always a ghost beggar who robs people during this period? So Kingsoft and I were also talking about this. As a result, Kingsoft said that you are the head of the team and must know more than us, so he asked me to ask you." As an excellent salesperson, lying without blinking is the most basic quality, and Li Zhang performed particularly well in this regard.

When he heard Li Zhang mention the ghost beggar, Lu Wu immediately slapped his head and said, "I almost forgot that those ghost beggars have been rampant recently. There are many children here, especially little girls like Li'er. Be careful!"

"Uncle Wu, you are too late to remind me. Yesterday, the little girl from our neighbor's house was snatched by a ghost beggar. Fortunately, there was a wild dog there, so he rushed into the sewer and snatched the person back." Li Zhang sighed at this time and said, "There are many children and women lost in Tokyo during this period, but except for Cai Niang, others do not have such good luck.

"Then Li'er is okay?" Lu Wu was shocked when he heard Li Zhang's words and immediately asked again. He always regarded Li'er as his biological daughter, so when he heard the ghost beggar appearing here, the first thing he was to ask about Li'er's safety.

"Li'er is fine, and yesterday our neighbors in the alley raised some money and sealed the sewer entrance with iron bars. There should be no more problems." Li Zhang replied.

"It's fine." Lu Wu breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, Xiuxiu also came forward obediently to pour water for Lu Wu, which made him ask curiously, "Who is this girl? Why haven't you seen it before?"

"This is Xiuxiu, Douzi's twin sister. The brothers and sisters were separated before and they were reunited in the past few days." Li Zhang first introduced to Lu Wu with a smile, then turned to Xiuxiu and said, "Xiuxiu, this is Uncle Wu. Thanks to Uncle Wu's care in the past, otherwise Douzi and I would have starved to death long ago."

Li Zhang did not say that he had been embarrassed by the Xu family before. First, the matter had been resolved, and second, he did not want to worry about everything. After all, Lu Wu was also very busy. As long as it was something he could solve, he would not want to bother the other party.

"Hello Uncle Wu!" Xiuxiu was not shy and bowed to Lu Wu very generously.

"Not bad, not bad, I'm a sensible girl. No wonder I feel that my home is much cleaner this time." Lu Wu looked Xiuxiu up and down and praised her.

"Uncle Wu, you are so awesome. Xiuxiu is not only delicious to cook, but also very proficient in housework. Since she came, our family has indeed changed a lot." Li Zhang praised him when he heard Lu Wu's words.

Li Zhang's family is full of children, most of them are orphans, and no one has taught them to do housework. Although Li Zhang is the soul of an adult, as a single mother and fetal dog, his residence in his previous life was not much better than a doghouse, so it was good that he could keep these children basic hygiene, so the family has always been in a mess. However, since Xiuxiu came, the family suddenly became orderly and even felt a new look.

Hearing the praise from Lu Wu and Li Zhang, Xiuxiu also showed a embarrassed expression, and then said, "Thank you Uncle Wu for taking care of Douzi over the years. Moreover, it is also our blessing to be able to take in our brother and brother. It is also a good thing to do some housework!"

When Lu Wu heard Xiuxiu's words, he praised her a few more words, which made Xiuxiu even more embarrassed and ran away on the excuse of cooking. As a result, Lu Wu laughed again. It seemed that he was very satisfied with Xiuxiu.

"Uncle Wu, the ghost beggars are so rampant during this period, has the court not taken any action?" Li Zhang asked again at this time. Just blocking the sewer entrance can only passive defense. If you want to completely solve this problem, the government will attack these ghost beggars. Otherwise, it would be a big deal for the Tokyo city to be panicked day by day?

"Oh, I've been drilling into the sewer almost every day during this period, but those ghost begs are very cunning. They are familiar with the terrain of the sewer, so we can't even see half of them, let alone capture them. As for the court, although someone wrote a letter to me, as far as I know, I'm afraid the court will not be able to make up for the ghost beggars!" Lu Wu sighed at this time.

"Is this woman and the child kid born, can the court just bear to watch it?" Li Zhang said a little annoyed when he heard this.

"The court also has difficulties. If you want to completely eliminate the ghost beggars, it is impossible not to send tens of thousands of people down. The army will have to spend money as soon as the army moves. The court cannot afford to pay at all, let alone what if it is cleaned up. As long as the sewer is still there, new ghost beggars will appear sooner or later." Lu Wu sighed again. He felt more and more that his ability was too small and he could only do nothing in many things.

Li Zhang frowned when he heard this, and after a while he sighed. In fact, if he put himself in his shoes, he would probably have a headache about the ghost beggars. However, after all, this matter was the court's responsibility. It was precisely because of the court's poor management of Tokyo that so many ghost beggars were born in the city.

"But the court did not take any action at all. Now all the yamen have taken action and checked the sewer entrances of the entire Tokyo city. Those who can be sealed will be sealed, and those who cannot be sealed will have to be added with an iron fence. Although it can only be cured of symptoms but not the root cause, there is no way." Lu Wu spoke again at this time.

"By the way, what about your father? Have you gone out to start a business again?" At this time, Lu Wu suddenly remembered Li Yonghe, and no longer wanted to discuss the ghost beggar with Li Zhang, so he changed the subject.

"A few days ago, he took five stakes from his family, but not only lost all of them, but also owed twenty stakes. Now I don't know where to go. I guess he has no shame to come back." Li Zhang said with a calm expression. He had no choice but to have such a father. The most important thing is that he valued filial piety in ancient times. He could not cut off the relationship between father and son, so he could only let him go. At worst, he would not let him touch money in the future.

"Why did you go to gamble again?" Lu Wu couldn't help but curse when he heard this. He was much older than Li Yonghe, and Li Yonghe has always regarded him as his brother, so only he is qualified to scold Li Yonghe.

"Uncle Wu, if you have time, go and spend Li'er with you. Although I didn't tell her father about gambling, this girl seemed to be a little aware of it and had been a little depressed these days." Li Zhang also said with some heartache at this time. He didn't care about Li Yonghe, but he was worried that such a father would have any bad effects on Li'er.

When he heard that Li'er was unhappy about Li Yonghe, Lu Wu also showed a heartache expression. He ignored Li Zhang and stood up and went to find Li'er. The little girl was helping Douzi greet customers in the store. When she saw Lu Wu coming in, she was overjoyed and hugged him, she was unwilling to let go. Li'er had no mother since she was a child and lacked fatherly love. Only from Lu Wu can she feel a long-lost fatherly love.
