Chapter 364 Demanding Huge Compensation 6/7)

night.

Lu Mansion.

Jiang Chi and Lu Gong sat down separately as guests, listening to Lu Ren explain what happened during the day, including how Liu Bang fell into the trap.

"This can be regarded as teaching him a lesson." Jiang Fu nodded and smiled.

It was his idea to send Liu Bang to build the Great Wall this time, and it was his method to switch the medicinal materials in the carriage.

Lu Gong smiled and agreed: "That's right. Liu Bang thought he could take this opportunity to catch you, but little did he know that he had already fallen into a trap."

What happened during the day was just a conspiracy between them.

"Mr. Jiang, what should you do next?" Lu Gong seemed to ask again.

Without Liu Bang, and with the effect of killing the chicken to scare the monkeys, Peng Tianding would not dare to have any obvious ideas.

"Of course we are pursuing the victory. The Lu family has suffered huge losses this time. We can't give up everything. After all, we still have a large family to support." Jiang Que said softly.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Lu, who was in charge, immediately became happy and said, "That's very good. I have many people in the Lu family to support, but I can't let him bully General Peng Tian in vain."

He is not a pedantic person either.

However, Yi Xiaochuan next to him had a strange look on his face and said, "Gong Lu, Taoist Priest, I dare you to devise a plan during the day to trap Liu Bang?"

The future Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty actually wanted to build the Great Wall. This made even him dumbfounded.

"But I haven't heard that Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty ever went to build the Great Wall. Could it be that the arrival of the Taoist Master will affect the development of future events?" Yi Xiaochuan wondered in his mind whether he should save someone and hold on to him first.

However, Jiang Chi and Lu Gong ignored him and continued to discuss some matters about Liu Bang, just to let him go on his way early.

As for General Peng, Lu Gong decided to go there himself.



Early the next morning.

Lu Gong calmly took some servants to Peng Mansion to find out what was going on.

As soon as Peng Tian got up, he heard his subordinates reporting, "General, Mr. Lu is here to visit."

Hearing this, Peng Tian was startled and said: "From now on, you will call me Sir in the city, and don't call me General anymore.

Go and invite Mr. Lu in, we can’t keep people waiting for a long time.”

He knew what Lu Gong was doing here to do something about Liu Bang, and he had already expected it in his heart. "He just wanted to see what happened to that kid Liu Bang, and to give me a heads up, but he didn't know that Liu Bang was just a kid."

It’s just a small chess piece.”

Smiling faintly, his face was as calm and indifferent as water.

After a while, Mr. Lu was brought in by his servants. Peng Tian said quickly: "Gong Lu is here. You are a rare visitor. Please take a seat."

Then he asked his servants to bring snacks.

Lu Gong was not polite and said: "General Peng really made a good plan, using Liu Bang to deal with our Lu family, huh!"

Regardless of the outcome of the bet, he must correct his attitude. If you Peng Tian wants to persecute my Lu family, there is no way.

Hearing this, Peng Tian quickly explained: "Lü Gong, all the mistakes in this matter are all Liu Bang's fault. He came to deceive me because he was a bit ruffian. I have already sent him to build the Great Wall. I have already done this for him."

Lu Gong, let out a bad breath."

In response, Lu Gong said calmly: "That was just a gambling fight between Liu Bang and my Lu family. General Peng must not say it is a joke."

Peng Tian suddenly smiled awkwardly, "Lv Gong, this is my fault. I am preparing to apologize to you today."

It just so happened that Lu Gong came, so it saved him a trip.

"Huh, no need." Lu Gong curled his lips and said: "I can't afford General Peng's apology. In any case, the general just listened to other people's words. It's impossible to let it go."

He would never allow this to happen.

If you want to escape easily, there is no way. Whatever you Peng Tian did is your Peng Tian, ​​and no one can escape.

Hearing this, Peng Tian had no choice but to smile, "Lv Gong, this is my fault. I apologize to you, but I was also bewitched by that boy Liu Bang to do the wrong thing."

If he wasn't worried about Lu Gong's reputation, he would have wanted to kill the old guy.

But not yet.

However, Mr. Lu did not sell his account, but said: "Huh, I don't care about that. This time my Lu family was blocked outside the city gate and subjected to inexplicable searches. So next time, will someone get into my Lu family and search it?"

?”

Peng Tian thought to himself: "That's what I have in mind."

But he was too embarrassed to say it directly, so he could only continue to smile and show a weird look.

Before he could speak, Lu Gong continued, "General Peng, I won't talk nonsense to you. This time I'm here to ask you for compensation. If the general ignores it, then I can write a letter and send it to Xianyang and Lao

Friends, let’s talk about friendship.”

Peng Tian: "..."

The threat in this is self-evident. You, Peng Tian, ​​can't escape today because there is no way.

"Mr. Lu, you..."

He has apologized, but you still want compensation, really.

He suddenly became furious and said with a dark face: "I have nothing and have not participated in anything. I wonder what compensation Mr. Lu wants?"

He is not the one who has been taken advantage of, so how can he be allowed to be slaughtered by you?

On the side, Lu Gong said coldly: "General Peng is right, but I have many disciples and former officials who are important officials in Xianyang City. If they learn that I have been wronged, what do you think they will do?"

By then, the excess will have to be vomited out.

Not to mention the little compensation now.

Sure enough, upon hearing what Jiang Que said, General Peng suddenly looked hesitant and confused, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, how much compensation do you want, Mr. Lu?"

admit.

It also means that he is timid.

Lu Gong chuckled, "In that case, let's compensate one thousand taels of gold. It must not be much for General Peng."

"What?" Peng Tian's face changed drastically when he heard this, and he said in a trembling voice: "Mr. Lu, are you crazy because of your poverty?"

One thousand taels of gold and one thousand taels of silver are two completely different concepts.

He has some wealth from guarding Peixian County for so many years, but that is all his wealth, right?

"Impossible, this matter is absolutely impossible. Mr. Lu, just give up. You don't have a thousand taels of gold, but a hundred taels of silver are fine." Peng Tian said in a deep voice.

As soon as these words came out, Mr. Lu's face turned dark and he said, "One hundred taels of silver? General Peng, are you treating me like a beggar?"

Peng Tian frowned and said, "Mr. Lu, it's not that I, the general, are sending you off as a beggar, it's that you want too much."

One thousand taels would cost him his life, and he was not willing to do so anyway. If he agreed, all his harvest over the years would have been saved by Lu Gong.

Lu Gong said coldly: "One hundred taels is absolutely impossible. If General Peng thinks that one thousand taels is too much, then let's go for nine hundred taels. In total, you are already one hundred taels short of you."

"No, I'll give you a hundred taels of gold at most."

"Eight hundred and fifty taels!"

"Three hundred taels, right?"

"Eight hundred taels."

"Four hundred taels at most, no more, people will die."

"Seven hundred taels

"..."

After some haggling, the deal was finally settled at five hundred taels of gold, and Mr. Lu left with the gold satisfied.

But Peng Tian looked ugly, "This damn old bastard actually stole five hundred taels of gold."

He suddenly felt that it was impossible to play with these literati, and they were not that thoughtful.

After this loss, he became increasingly angry and immediately ordered: "Come here, General, please invite all the staff in the mansion..."

"Yes, General."
