Three days later, Lu Yang returned to Lin Su's place to explain the follow-up of the investigation. "Master," he said, "the servant who usually washes the dishes was temporarily replaced by someone else. When I arrived, he had already escaped. I'm very sorry, Master, that we didn't catch the murderer."
"What's the follow-up?" Lin Su put down his pen, sorted out the papers on the desk and asked.
Lu Yang clasped his fists and said, "I've already sent people to track him down. If we encounter him, we'll kill him without mercy."
Lin Su looked at him, and when Lu Yang felt that something was wrong with him, he said, "Master Lu, have you checked everyone in the courtyard one by one? I hope to register everyone's background and family background, so that someone can't sneak in and take my life. What do you think?"
His tone was gentle and straightforward, but Lu Yang knew that the follow-up he wanted was not about the murderer at all, but about his future safety.
This was his negligence in duty, but the young master did not blame him. Instead, he calmly reminded him, which made him feel a little ashamed.
"I... your subordinate will definitely see to it." Lu Yang said, "Young Master..."
Lin Su stood up and said, "Thank you, Master Lu. I will be going out soon. I hope Master Lu can send two good people to protect me."
"Young Master, what are you going to do on your trip?" Lu Yang asked.
In the past, he was afraid that he would go to places of entertainment and not do his job properly, but now he has become inexplicably cautious.
Subordinates should not ask about their master's whereabouts at will, but this person is the master of the original body, so as an elder he is qualified.
"Buy some shops and open up business." Lin Su said.
If you want to recruit an army, you need money. If you are not rich enough to rival a country, how can you dominate in troubled times?
Lu Yang stretched out his arm to block Lin Su's way and said, "Young Master, you are now shouldering the great cause of restoring the Qi Dynasty. How can you casually engage in business? If you enter this path, your life will be mediocre and you will never achieve great things. Please retract this thought."
It seems that business is the last resort in this era. Without going through various eras, it is common for people's thinking to be solidified by the times. Even those who have received advanced education still have many people whose thinking is twisted and difficult to untie.
This is not a bad thing. At least they have been educated in loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, and they are truly loyal. It is true that several generations of their family have been serving their former master.
Lin Su stopped and sat down beside him. "Since Master Lu has spoken of restoring the Qi Dynasty, you must have a plan in mind. May I ask how you plan to restore the Qi Dynasty?"
"Of course it is the young master who has learned both civil and military strategies and led us to overthrow those traitors." Seeing that he was not as impatient as before when talking about major events, Lu Yang replied with a fist salute.
"Then how can I overthrow those traitors? Should I lead the charge and kill them all?" Lin Su sighed. "Master Lu has practiced martial arts his entire life, but he still can't even walk around the imperial palace like a back garden. There are so many royal families in the five kingdoms. I'm afraid I won't be able to kill every last one in my lifetime."
Lu Yang said with a determined face, "Young Master cannot do it, but there are descendants who will carry on the great cause, and there will be no end to the descendants."
Lin Su: “…”
06 sensed the host's speechlessness: [This person may have read too much of Yugong Banshan.]
Although Yugong had ambitions, his descendants may not have the same ambitions. Their entire lives were framed in this way, and their entire lives were wasted. The ending where the gods moved the mountains is even more ironic.
It seems that you are persevering, but in fact you are still dreaming unrealistically, hoping to reach the top in one step and skip countless processes.
This person has limited thinking, but he can be used, as long as he listens to him.
"What if I can achieve it in this generation?" Lin Su smiled and was not annoyed by Lu Yang's rebuttal.
"Young Master, how do you plan to achieve this? Doing business?" Lu Yang asked.
Lin Su studied him for a long moment before speaking, "To restore the great cause, an army, wealth, and prestige are equally indispensable. Without wealth, how can an army be effective? Without prestige, how can one uphold justice? Without an army to attack, one cannot even capture a city, let alone rule the country. Scholars have moral principles. If a rebellion fails within three years, it's because they lack the soldiers and generals. Historically, dynasties have always been replaced by military campaigns. Master Lu, have you ever seen a dynasty change because an assassin killed an emperor?"
He spoke slowly and steadily, but his questions left Lu Yang speechless.
He has great ambitions, but if he wants to own wealth and an army, it will take several generations to achieve.
"Young Master, you are absolutely right." Lu Yang said.
"Now there is no old dynasty, but I am the master and you are the servant. You can ask me about what I say and give me advice, but you cannot interfere or stop me at will. Otherwise, Master Lu can establish himself as the master, so why call me the young master?" Lin Su raised his head slightly and looked at him.
Lu Yang quickly clasped his fists and said, "I have absolutely no intention of rebellion, but the young master's recent words seem different from before..."
"In the past, I was afraid of Master like a tiger, so I naturally suppressed myself. Now, if I don't make progress, I'm afraid even my life will be in danger. Naturally, I can only explain my thoughts to Master." Lin Su stood up and said, "If Master agrees, we can plan big things together in the future. If Master disagrees, the money left by the previous dynasty will be divided in half, and half will be left to Master for his retirement."
He was so decisive because he wanted Lu Yang to make a decision. Lu Ning was almost breathless when he heard this outside the door. It had been three days, and his brother still hadn't recovered from the shock he suffered?
"Of course I am following the orders of the young master. Please give me your instructions." Lu Yang clasped his fists and lowered his head.
The master is the master and the servant is the servant. If you leave your master, you can't achieve great things or even do justice.
"Send me two good and obedient men." Lin Su straightened his sleeves and stood up. He picked up the sword on the table and walked out. "We will set off after a cup of tea."
He was now acting quite decisively. Lu Yang said yes and hurried to make arrangements.
After Lu Yang left, Lu Ning poked his head in and asked, "Can I go with you? I'm pretty good at martial arts."
"If you go, my trip will really be a mess. If you don't want to be scolded by the master, stay here and don't run around." Lin Su said with a smile.
Lu Yang prepared money and people, but he was still a little worried when he saw Lin Su getting on the car. When the words came to his lips, he remembered what Lin Su had said before and swallowed his words.
Business is something Lin Su is familiar with. If he gives people whatever they want, he will be led by the nose. He can only control the market if he sells what they snatch.
At first, no one was interested in his shop, but within three days, it was packed with customers, which surprised the Lu family father and son.
"I didn't expect that the young master still has the means to make money now. It's me who is narrow-minded." Lu Yang was relieved to see the increase in assets.
"It's probably just luck." Lu Ning still found it hard to believe that his brother, who used to only think about eating, drinking and having fun, could actually make money. However, he used to talk to Lin Su about anything, but now he had some inexplicable sense of awe in his heart, which made him not as comfortable as before.
