    Huo Zhang was very happy. This meal was undoubtedly the greatest compliment to his employer.  The two of them picked up the large glasses and drank three large glasses in a row.

    Chen Lu said: "It's fine now. We've almost had enough wine and food. You also have to drink to cover up your face. Just say what you need to say."

    Huo Zhang put down the cup and said, "Brother Zicheng, you are really a bad learner. It turns out you are really not like this. Do I have to say this clearly?"

    Chen Lu nodded and said, "What is your goal? Tell us and we can study it."

    "Then I'm telling the truth. There are two configurations for the boss of the Governor's Mansion. In terms of official titles in your dynasty, they are from the second rank or the third rank. As you can see from my clothes, they are from the third rank."

    Chen Lu had seen it and said: "It's no wonder. After all, your time as governor is too short. When I return to Beijing from here, you will still know it. But having said that, people go to higher places and water flows to lower places.  , the pursuit of progress is the sign of a motivated person, and based on our relationship, there is no reason not to help you. Even from the second level, I will keep it."

    Well¡­¡­

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    Huo Zhang hesitated to speak, but Chen Lu saw the way out and said with a smile: "OhI understand, old man, you are very ambitious and strive for greater progress. To be honest, this is quite difficult."

    Huo Zhang said: "Master Chen, you have misunderstood me. To be honest, I like to be in a foreign position, sitting in one place, living in eight seats, and here I am the local emperor. But my current qualifications are not enough to be promoted to the next level, but there is no way, if  If I can become a third-grade official, my brother will have a secure seat here. Otherwise, in more than half a year, I will have to get out. As for the second-grade, I still dare not think about it."

    Now Chen Lu was confused and said, "Then what Brother Huo means is"

    Huo Zhang said: "You may also know that our former governor, Namin, did not have a good relationship with me. There will be certain difficulties in operation."

    Chen Lusuo: "I am quite familiar with Namin and know him quite well. He is a pretty good man. What is his current position?"

    "Second Lieutenant Li Zhi is in charge of this matter. Brother, I heard about it. It was your brother Zicheng who helped him get that position."

    Chen Lu thought about it and laughed out loud. He was like a minister of civil affairs in the Celestial Dynasty, because there were no other officials above him, only these few. Although it was a deputy position, it was a rare and lucrative position.  Just in charge of promotion and dismissal.

    Chen Lu said: "Brother Huo said something harsh, bah, he said something harsh again. Your former boss really didn't use me as an old man. He just asked me to speak to the king. He sent people everywhere to take care of things. Old Huo, follow me  He said, he really might as well stay where he is, what good can a capital official do?"

    Huo Zhang immediately stood up and said: "Master Chen, brother, I need you to say something to the king. I just want to stay here. I don't ask for the second grade, I will be satisfied with the third grade." After saying that, he bowed his hands and bowed his right hand.  He caressed his chest and bowed deeply.

    Chen Lu said: "What is this worth? I'll let you do this gift! No problem, I'll take care of it. Even if you don't ask me for a third-grade gift!"

    Huo Zhang was surprised. He didn't expect Chen Lu to have such great energy and said, "Brother Zicheng, we have to face reality. A high-ranking brother in this position doesn't dare to expect too much. Just try your best."

    Chen Lu stopped, looked at him meaningfully, pointed at him with a smile: "I heard it, you think I am bragging, haha, it's up to you. Let's talk about the next topic."

    Huo Zhang said: "We happen to have something to report to Wang Ting. In addition to Habu's case this time, brother, I plan to send Shangguan Wuji to Beijing to go with you. Brother, let him take a group of people.  It¡¯s good to have someone to take care of you on the road.¡±

    Chen Lu was overjoyed. It was obviously to help the mission, but in order to give him Chen Lu face, he said this very euphemistically.  Chen Lu said: "Brother Huo, you are really thoughtful. You really understand the situation of our mission. I know all about your problems. We will leave tomorrow and let Liu Zi go and seal the customs later."

    "What? Brother, I plan to give you a farewell tomorrow."

    Chen Lu waved his hand and said: "Our lieutenant-general also plans to invite you to the camp at noon tomorrow. After I have been here for a while, my old man changed his attention. We are both free, so we can block the outside."

    This sentence spoke to Huo Zhang's heart. Huo Zhang's Governor's Mansion also has anti-China civil and military forces. They are also observing their boss's every move. It is really inappropriate to get too close.

    But if he doesn¡¯t show his attitude, he is afraid that the delegation will be unhappy. He, Huo Zhang, is a centrist and neither faction wants to offend.  Chen Lu's words showed him that China regarded him as one of its own.

    Huo Zhang bowed his head again and said, "Brother Zicheng is really a sensible man. There is no need for brothers."It can be said that I will tell you the truth here. From now on, if the Chinese envoys pass by, as long as they are in charge of me, regardless of whether I am in office or not, you can feel free to come and go without making the slightest mistake. Brother Zicheng, you will only care about me.  Zhang asked.  "

    Chen Lu stood up and said solemnly: "There is no need to say this. All the expenses for the mission in your capital are on the mission. You are a poor official, so don't worry about it."

    "Well, you're welcome, brothers. We will quietly deliver your supplies and baggage to the camp tonight. It doesn't matter if someone asks. After all, we still have a group of people."

    This Huo Zhang knows how to be a good person, taking out public things and using the gold and silver of the mission to do private things, so that everyone can benefit.

    The two of them finished their business and drank wine for half an hour. They had already woken up. On the sixth day of July, a crescent moon was already hanging in the sky.  When Chen Lu returned to the camp, everyone had eaten and was waiting for him.

    Chen Lu quickly reported on the situation in this industry.  Everyone's face was flushed with joy.  Li Da said: "This way we will be much safer in this section. At least if the officers and soldiers want to take some action, they have to use rat weapons. Master Zicheng, you have made another great contribution."

    Chen Lu also talked about the return gift and farewell, and everyone said that this should be the case.

    Everyone discussed for a while. It was the second watch and the moon had set. Chen Lu asked Wang Daju to go to the gate of the camp to greet them. Their baggage cart arrived and they were put in immediately.

    After saying that, Chen Lu stood up to say goodbye and looked around the camp. Long Gang also followed.  Only then did Long Gang realize that Mr. Chen was actually on guard against Huo Zhang, fearing an accident.

    They inspected a circle and returned to the gate of the camp. They saw several large carriages coming in. They were led by Shangguan Wuji. He gave the gift list to Wang Daju, and Wang Daju led him to the Chinese army's tent.

    Chen Lu took a look and saw that there were five large carts, two of which were filled with rice, about four hundred shi.

    Chen Lu is most concerned about this.  Now Li Xian and Hu Chun are managing this aspect.  The people and horses of the mission consume more than twenty dan of food in one day.  The other two carts are filled with salt, vegetables and meat, as well as some arrows, lead bullets and the like.

    Chen Lu was completely relieved. Huo Zhang wanted to show that he was leaning towards the Celestial Dynasty.

    Chen Lu returned to the Chinese army's tent and had a few polite words with Shangguan Wuji.

    Shangguan Wuji told Li Da that the coachmen would follow him tomorrow, with two coachmen per car.  After saying that, he went back with his troops.

    Chen Lu said a few words and returned to his tent.  He wanted to see Nalan, but he didn't have time to change clothes and was afraid they would fall asleep.  We hurried in. They were still awake and tinkering with the account books.

    Dolan came over to greet her and said, "Mr. Chen, if you are so busy, please don't come over. My sister is much better and she went out several times today."

    Chen Lu walked over and saw that Nalan's face was already flushed. He took a closer look at the color of his lips and found that they were basically back to normal.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
