The young master was a little caught off guard. Didn't he just agree that the operation of the villa was difficult and he wanted to save a lot of money, but he suddenly changed his mind.
"Sir, there are outsiders."
After the manager Zhang gave a reminder, he conveniently completed the transaction with the foreigners, which was completely different from the procrastination that he had just been arguing for a long time over the price.
After being in a daze for a short time, the young master immediately came back to his senses, straightened up his appearance, and then turned to Lu Hanjiang and the other two people who were walking towards them.
The young master also saw the dog-beating stick in Shangluo's hand at a glance. He was slightly surprised, but at the same time, there was no sign of indifference on his face. He came forward and cupped his hands and said: "It turns out that a friend of the Beggar Clan has arrived. I'm at Zhujian Villa.
Huo Yunqi, nice to meet you."
Shangluo came a little slower. Seeing that the excitement was over, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. But when she heard the other party announcing her home, she got excited again. She put her fists to her mouth, coughed twice, and said loudly: "I
girl--"
The words stopped abruptly as soon as she started. It turned out that Lu Hanjiang slapped her on the top of her head with a big hand, pushed her hat down, covered her eyes, and blocked her words.
"My little sister is naughty, please forgive me."
While preventing Shangluo from baring her teeth at him, Lu Hanjiang took the dog-beating stick back in his busy schedule and muttered, "When did this girl sneak away from him?"
"Ahem."
Lu Hanjiang put away the dog-beating stick, and then quickly retracted his hand into his robe. Huo Yunqi, who was opposite him, said, "I'm Lu Shiqi of the Beggar Clan. This is my wife and my sister, Mr. Huo, the owner of the village. Nice to meet you."
While speaking, Yongle also exposed half of her body behind Lu Hanjiang at the right time. Compared to Shangluo's uninhibited appearance, she looked a little more reserved. She was wearing a cloak and a hood, only showing half of her face, and nodded slightly without saying a word.
.
Lu Hanjiang guessed Huo Yunqi's identity as soon as he showed up. When he arrived, he sent someone to find out that the two brothers Huo Tianya and Huo Tianxing were now in charge of Zhujian Villa.
But as the owner of the village, Huo Tianya was obsessed with swords and did not marry a wife. Naturally, he had no heirs. Fortunately, his younger brother Huo Tianxing was normal, so the position of the next generation heir of the Sword Villa fell to Huo Tianxing.
Son, Huo Yun got up and got up.
Huo Tianya had no objection to this, so everyone in the world called Huo Yunqi the Young Master of the Village.
"It turns out to be Gang Leader Lu, Mrs. Lu, and Miss Lu. I'm very polite."
Huo Yunqi was not that surprised. He had obviously been mentally prepared. After the Beggar Clan's anti-rape conference and the expedition to the north to annihilate the Xuehua Palace, the young leader of the Lu Shiqi Gang had become famous in the world.
He had made a guess when he saw the dog-beating stick, and now he just wanted to verify it.
"It is indeed a fate to meet the three of you today. My uncle has been waiting for the three distinguished guests at the village for a long time. Why don't you come with me? You have lived in the Central Plains for a long time, and you must have rarely seen this northwest style. Why don't you let me take a look at the landowners?
friendship."
Huo Yunqi's attitude was very kind, and the reason was simple. His father, Huo Tianxing, had long been secretly angry with him. His uncle, Huo Tianya, had plans to sell the Jiangnan property.
But compared to his father's worries, Huo Yunqi's attitude is to support his uncle. After all, the Zhujian Villa is already in critical condition. Under the luxurious appearance, there are holes that need to be filled everywhere.
As we all know, you don’t feel bad if you sell your farmland, but you feel bad if you can’t sell it. Now, instead of worrying about running out of money for the Zhujian Villa, it’s better to think about what to do if the beggar gang doesn’t want to do it.
Huo Yunqi's attitude today is partly due to the prestige of the Beggar Gang in the world, but more importantly, it is because he hopes to build a good relationship with the gang leader so that he can get enough money to help him out.
"In this case, I will trouble Mr. Huo."
Lu Hanjiang could naturally see that Huo Yunqi had other desires, but there was no reason for him to turn people away when someone rushed to his door to give him money.
With the savings of the Jingyi Sect of the Beggar Clan at the bottom, the three of them spent a lot of money all the way to the northwest. The money they spent was like running water. Although it was not his own money, so he didn't feel bad, but Lu Hanjiang still had to think about the next days.
.
Seeing that the road was still a little short, but the money was almost lost, it was definitely too late to go to Elder Qi at this time. Lu Hanjiang even planned to pawn the dog-beating stick to provide support and have it redeemed later.
As a result, what did you say? If you want to sleep, someone will give you a pillow, so Huo Yun got up at the right time.
At this moment, Lu Hanjiang felt that Shangluo, who had suddenly stopped to watch the excitement, seemed very cute.
Feeling Lu Hanjiang's loving smile, Shangluo suddenly felt a chill all over her body and hurriedly leaned to the side: "Xiao Lu, why are you laughing so disgustingly all of a sudden?"
"..."
Holding it back... forget it, Lu Hanjiang couldn't hold it back, and his head fell directly on top of Shangluo's head, causing strong protest from the other party.
He ignored the angry little girl, exchanged greetings with Huo Yunqi for a moment, and then the two parties set off together.
Huo Yunqi said that he was a landlord, and that was not a polite statement. Although Zhujian Villa is now so poor that they are almost trousers, their disguise on the surface is still grand.
All the food, clothing, housing and transportation along the way were taken care of by Huo Yunqi alone. Lu Hanjiang did not deliberately try to save money for him. How he spent money before, he would still spend it now.
On the one hand, for a force with the status of Zhujian Villa, deliberately saving money for the other party is not considerate, but a kind of contempt or even insult.
On the other hand, because Zhujian Villa concealed it very well, all the rumors about them in the world were good. Lu Hanjiang was not idle and bored to investigate this matter, so he did not know about Zhujian Villa's financial predicament.
.
Finally, and most importantly, Lu Hanjiang's temperament is just like this. When he spends his own money, he digs and digs, and when he spends other people's money, he throws away money.
Shangluo had exactly the same temperament as him, and Yongle, the only one who felt a little inappropriate about this, chose to compromise because of their attitudes.
Huo Yunqi was very generous. He used the most precious gifts to entertain the three of them, not to mention Shangluo and Yongle. Regardless of his position, Lu Hanjiang didn't have any bad feelings towards him. After all, he reached out and didn't hit the smiling man, even though he was sure
It's something else.
Sure enough, while passing by a post station for a rest, Huo Yun got up and invited Lu Hanjiang to drink tea, and he talked about the land south of the Yangtze River.
Huo Yunqi showed admiration on his face, picked up the tea cup, and praised: "The thunderous tactics of Gang Leader Lu shocked Jiangnan Xiaoxiao, which is really admirable. Unfortunately, there is no wine here, so I have to offer you a cup of tea instead of wine."
"Master Huo, you're welcome."
Lu Hanjiang responded calmly, saying that the so-called thunderous tactics were nothing more than spreading lies among the gangsters. Because of the farce at Yan Fengyun's funeral, Jianghu people's perception of the Beggar Gang dropped drastically.
Their original mission of going north to annihilate Xuehua Palace also became a show of strength in order to seize the land south of the Yangtze River.
Everyone among the disciples of the Beggar Clan was dissatisfied because of this. Lu Hanjiang actually understood them very well. Apart from the decision-making elders and him, the leader of the clan, the other disciples were indeed sincere in dealing with the devil, but now they were all pouring their blood on the ground.
How can I not feel aggrieved?
Huo Yunqi didn't know the reason, or maybe he knew it and didn't care. He said a few words of praise and four or five words of admiration, and finally his words reached the key point.
"Gang Leader Lu, I heard that after your gang took over Jiangnan, many disciples bought property in Jiangnan. I dare not hide it. Our Sword Making Villa also has several properties in Jiangnan. You and I have always been on good terms, so why bother?
