The Zhu family's residence is built on the bank of mountains and fields, facing the lake and surrounded by beautiful scenery.

The Zhu family walked in front with a smile and brought Zhao Shuang into the court. The servants quickly served drinks.

"I have long heard that the general defeated Yan and conquered Qin. He is young but has great fame. When I see him today, he is extraordinary."

"You're welcome, sir."

The two chubby people sat together and after drinking, Zhu's smiling red face slightly changed into a melancholy blue face.

"There are rumors in the world that the general has gained a huge sum of money recently?"

"It does happen."

"As the saying goes, if a tree is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it. In this world, there are many masters who want money rather than their lives. Generals are famous all over the world, but it is easy to hide with open guns and hard to defend against hidden arrows. If you don't give up, I can help the generals solve this problem. .”

The Zhu family is on top of the world, with a wide network of contacts and business connections all over the world. He dared to say this, not just speaking out of thin air.

Moreover, it was equivalent to selling Zhao Shuang a big favor.

"No need."

"Can the general not trust me?"

Zhao Shuang smiled and said slightly.

"I have heard of the name of the Zhu family. Even though the money is huge, it cannot shake the heart of the Zhu family."

"To get the general's words is worth ten thousand gold!"

The Zhu family laughed and bowed to Zhao Shuang.

Zhao Shuang also responded with his hands raised, and then said.

"The reason why I don't use it is because I have dedicated this ten thousand gold to the king of Weiguo. Weiguo is a small country, but it has suffered from wars and the people have been displaced. Therefore, I use this gold to express my feelings."

The Zhu family's facial makeup changed from melancholic blue back to red, stood up, and said with arms in hand.

"General Gaoyi, I admire you!"

Zhao Shuang held the wine glass in his hand and smiled slightly.

"Mr. Zhu just said he owed me a favor. I wonder if it still counts?"

"certainly!"

The Zhu family was very confused. Could it be that Zhao Shuang had something for him to do at this moment?

Zhao Shuang took out a bead from his sleeve and stretched it out.

The Zhu family was shocked, took the bead with both hands, held it in front of their eyes, looked at it carefully, and praised it.

"This luminous pearl is extremely rare. It is only produced in the coastal areas of Baiyue. It is worth no less than a hundred gold and is only exclusive to the royal family. These luminous pearls were only circulated after the Baiyue royal family was attacked and destroyed by the Han and Chu coalition forces."

"Give it to you."

The Zhu family was shocked. They had never thought that the fat man in front of them was so majestic.

"What does the general mean?"

"I heard that the Zhu family's business is widespread all over the world. I still have a small amount of capital in my hands, so I am willing to take a share. What do you think?"

Zhu Jia paused, holding the luminous pearl in his hand, and his body froze for a moment. After a while, he handed it over and said.

"The general is willing to reward you, but Zhu is disrespectful. However, this is not a matter of favor. This luminous pearl is really valuable, and Zhu deserves it. If it is less, it will be regarded as the capital of the general's investment."

"So, happy to cooperate!"

After drinking, Zhao Shuang handed over and left.

The Zhu family sent it to the door. When they came back, they looked at the messy table in the courtyard and poured half a glass of wine for themselves.

"Brother Situ, how are you?"

"One thousand gold buys bones, ten thousand gold buys fame. This Zhao Shuang is not simple!"

Situ Wanli took the wine pot and wine glass, walked over slowly, sat where Zhao Shuang was sitting just now, and filled the wine glass in Zhu's hand with wine.

"Most young generals are high-spirited, but in Zhao Shuang, you can't see that at all. Instead, he is very thoughtful and doesn't reveal anything."

"Breaking Yan but conquering Qin, Luo Wang suffered two big losses in a row. How can such a person be simple?"

The Zhu family sighed and drank all the wine in the glass. Situ Wanli saw this and complained a little.

"If Tian's people want to get into trouble, just let them do it. Why bother to interfere and get a favor?"

The Zhu family shook their heads and changed their facial makeup to blue again.

"I was afraid that the matter would get bigger and eventually involve the farmer. But what I didn't expect was that Zhao Shuang actually wanted to take a stake in our business?"

The priceless night pearl was rolling on the table, but the Zhu family didn't care. Instead, there was worry in their tone.

Situ Wanli picked up the luminous pearl from the table and placed it in front of his eyes. The luster of this bead seems to penetrate people's hearts. After looking at it for a long time, I feel a little lost.

As if he noticed his gaffe, Situ Wanli smiled softly.

"My brother's business is short of funds. Zhao Shuang is willing to take a share, which solves an urgent need. What's more, the people of the Tian family may not appreciate your thankless efforts. I think this Zhao Shuang is worth making friends with."

"I'm just worried that Zhao Shuang's purpose is not just to make money, but to harm the farmers through me."

Situ Wanli shook his head and smiled.

"Brother, you are confused by the authorities. Zhao Shuangru really wants to make things difficult for the farmers. Through the people of the Tian family, he can always follow the clues. His army is stationed in the Wei area. Isn't it easy? Have you heard that because of his military exploits? , the State of Zhao will give Zhao Shuang another 10,000 troops and a hundred chariots."

"Is the news accurate?"

"The information from Handan should be correct."

Zhu Shuang took a breath and said.

"The family of hundreds of chariots, the kingdom of thousands of chariots. Zhao Shuang is young, but he is already a prince who commands the three armies."

"Who says someone has someone on his head? We can't afford to offend such people, and we don't need to offend him. Zhao Shuang is willing to cooperate with me, so why should I refuse? Anyway, we can always keep things separate from farm affairs and business dealings. There is no need to do so. Worry."

"That's fine."

The Zhu family was relieved, but Situ Wanli had doubts on his face and looked at the night pearl on the table.

"Brother Situ, what's wrong?"

"Zhao Shuang dedicated tens of thousands of gold to Lord Wei, and there was also a luminous pearl worth a hundred gold. He looks very rich!"

"Is something wrong?"

"Of course not!" Situ Wanli's face became even more confused, "How much money did Ji Wuye shave off? Is it inexhaustible?"

Deep in the mountains, under the moonlit night, the sound of insects is endless.

Outside the small courtyard, the Moon God stood quietly.

Jing Ke was not in the yard, leaving Li Ji alone.

Luna slowly entered the courtyard and stepped into the house.

There were not many furnishings in Liji's room, and no men's belongings could be seen. There was only a bed, which could only accommodate one person.

Luna's footsteps were very light, and she slowly stepped forward, looking at the sleeping woman with a slight smile on her face.

The hands formed a seal, and a lavender mist filled the air unconsciously.

Li Ji woke up from the haze, her vision was not clear, and she murmured something.

"Who are you?"

Before she finished speaking, Li Ji breathed in the lavender mist and fell asleep again.

After the operation was completed, the smile on Luna's face faded slightly, and she was still a little proud.

"Zhao Shuang, what do you want to ask me for?"
